Hakdsomb Testimonial. — The mes
sengers and clerks of tho Southern Ex
press Company, lately under tho imme
diate control of Mr. D. 11. Van Buren,
whitfe agent at tho office in this city,
have had prepared a handsome and ele
gant testimonial of their high apprecia
tion of the many excellent qualities
which characterized their late chief du
ring his official association with them.
It com ists of a large and magnificent
gilt picture frame, studded with the
photographs of the donors, as follows :
Messrs. Thames, Graham, Plank, Leon,
Keab, Gibbenrath, Mays, Clark, Lynch,
Plumb, Thornton, Hulbert, St. John, T.
J. Sprinkle, P. M. Sprinkle, Mazyck,
Holies, Cornwall, Gardner, Walker,
Austin, Myers, Simpson and Wagnon,
with a large-sized photograph of Mr.
Van Buren forming tho central figure.
This tribute to a retiring officer from so
iarge a number of those who were in
immediate association with him in the
daily discharge of his official duties, is
as well conceived as it is deserved by
one who ranks so highly in the estima
tion of those who know him best. This
elegant picture is now on exhibition at
the Express office, and will he forwarded
to Sir. Van Buren in a few days. It
was executed by Messrs. Pelot V Cole,
photographic artists, of this city.
Masonic Emblem* Cannot up. Used as
Tkadb-Mauks.— Acting Commissioner
of Patents, Thatcher has rendered a de
cision on an appeal from the decision of
the examiners, affirming the action of
the latter in refusing the registration of
a Masonic symbol as a trade-mark. In
In's decision Judge Thatcher says hois
clearly of the opinion that these symbols
cannot bo used as trade-marks, and
adds:
“Among Masons, with whom this
token has a moral significance, its use in
that capacity would undoubtedly be re
gard'd as a base prostitution of it to
merei nary purposes, while witii others
its mystic force would often dissipate its
virtues as a trade-mark, and, pprhaps, in
some instances, place the article it ap
peared upon under a ban. If these
trade-marks could be sanctioned they
would tend to defeat the fundamental
object of the trade-mark law, which is an
offshoot of tho ancient ‘law merchant,’
and, like that, designed to advance trade
;md manufactures. ”
Tub Itnc. Harvest.- -The Georgetown
((!.) Times, of tlie, 4th, Kays: “The
rice harvest is being pushed »s rapidly
along as the supply of labor will permit.
The weather has been glorious, and from
the commencement of the harvest to the
time wo write there have been but three
days when rice could not safely be han
dled. If vtlio crops tnrn out to be short
(and we fear they will), it must bo attri
buted to tho caterpillar, the salts, the
rice birds and the thieves, and not to an
nnpropitious harvest. From the small
quantity of rice being brought to town
by the nsgroes thus far, we are inclined
to believe that the stealage has been
less this year than in the last three or
four years.’’
PIiEHKNTATION TO BISIIOI* Gil! BOMS.
Oil Wednesday night last Bishop Gib

among whom his Apostolic labors has
been previously exercised, as an earnest
of their affection and esteem, presented
Bishop Gibbons, on tho evo of bis de
parture, with a handsome silvor pitcher,
salver and goblets, and a black marble

Winn Not Bis a Candidate. — Tho
Blunter Hejiubliean says that Col. Jack
Brown will not bo nil independent can
didate for Congress in tho Third Dis
trict, as reported, but will give his
hourly support to Gen. Pliil Cook. The
determination of Col. Brown in this
matter is worthy of all commondation.
In no quarter of tho State can we afford
to run two Democratic candidates, in
tho face of Radical manoeuvreing to
divide the strength of tho Democrats,
for no other purpose than to advance
their own infamous schemes.

Scientific Burglary.
On Tuesday night the most scientific
burglary of the season w; 7 -petrated
in this city—one which evidences the
fact that the progress of rascality has
kept pace with that of the arts and sci
ences. On Tuesday morning two col
ored men, John Kirk and Joe Lawson,
loitered a great deal about the store of
Mr. John Colclougb, situated on the
corner of Broad and Camming streets,
and made themselves familiar with the
premises. They noticed, among other
things, that one of the windows facing
Cnmming street had no fastening save
an iron bar, which went diagonally across
the blind on the outside, and was se
cure <1 by an iron bolt or pin, which ran
through the bar and was secured on the
inside. Without being perceived, they
managed to get possession of this bolt
and carried it to a neighboring black
smith shop, where they had its head cut
off, a screw' thread cut and a nut put
upon it. The bolt was then taken back
and left in the place from which it was
obtained. When night came and the
store was being closed rp the fraud was
not detected, and the window was fas
tened with the bogus bolt. About 12
o’clock the thieves returned and un
screwed the nut and opened the window
without any trouble. After effecting an
entrance they rilled the building of a
quantity of bacon, flour, ham, and
two dollars in silver, with which they
decamped. After leaving the store they
separated. Joe Lawson had not gone far
before a policeman saw him and las
suspicious looking burden, and carried
him to the guard house. Kirk, about
one o’clock in tho morning, was seen
by a policeman while trying to get into
the yard of Mr. J. A. Roberts, corner
of Ellis and Mclntosh streets, probably
for the purpose of committing another
burglary. The policeman hailed the
thief, but the latter refused to hc.lt, and
tho officer gave chase, firing, also, three
shots with his revolver, none of which
took effect. The negro jumped the
fence and made his escape, but left be
hind him a revolver, loaded and cap
ped, which showed that lie intended
adding murder to burglary, if an op
portunity for using his weapon had
been afforded. Yesterday morning a
policeman watched the premises, think
ing that tho burglar would return, per-,
haps, for his weapon. In this he was
not disappointed. Ye bold burglar re
turned, and was at once arrested.
After being in custody a short time
they made a clean breast to the officers,
and told how tho robbery had been
planned and executed. They also stated
that they were tho parties who bur
glarized Messrs. Bchneikor & Myers’
store the other night (an account of
which was given in tho Chronicle and
Sentinel, of Sunday morning), and
gave up some of tho plunder which
they got on that occasion. On the
person of Kirk was found several “ pay
certificates” issued by the Port Royal
Railroad contarctora —and which must
have been stolen also. They were car
ried before .Tustico Maher and commit
ted for trial at tho next Superior Court
on tho charge of burglary iu the night
timo. .
The Savannah Tragedy.— From tho
News, of yesterday, we get the follow
ing additional particulars of the Dillon
tragedy:
In the room 'back of the banking
office wo found the wounded father
seated in a chair undergoing an examina
tion of his wounds by Drs. Bulloch and
Myers, which were pronounced not of a
serious character. The sang /void of
David R. Dillon, considering the occa
sion, was something rather remarkable.
Whilst the physicians were dressing the
flesh wound in his arm ho calmysmokod
his segar and seemed not in tho least
perturbed.
Wo managed, whilst in the room, to
glean the following information con
cerning the origin of the difficulty which
resulted in the death of the son and the
wounding of the father. Early in the
morning tho deceased, Alexander Dillon,
a youth about eighteen years of age,
had been taken to task by David R.
Dillon, his father, about some business
which tho latter had instructed him to
attend to. This occasioned the passage
of some sharp words, when it is alleged
tho father called bis son a “miserable
pappy.” This epithet it seems wounded
the feelings of tho young man. deeply,
and he left tho house, threatening retal
iation for tho insult. Young Dillon then
either went and bought a pistol or bor
rowed one (our information on this point
is not positive), and about ten o’clock
entered his father's office. Mr. Dillon
at once spoke to him about his failing
to see to the hauling of some hay, as lie
was ordered to do. Young Dillon replied
that lie had done so. This assertion
was doubted by his father, who stated
that he had met the boy with the wagon,
and that it was not half loaded. To this
young Dillon made no reply, when his
father said, “Clear out, and go home.”
The deceased then said, “You insulted
njo by calling mo a ‘puppy,’ this morn
ing, and l won't take that from any
one,” nnd drawing a pistol, commenced
firing at bis father. Three shots were
fired in rapid succession, all of which
took effect, one in the left side of the
head, back of the ear, inflicting a scalp
wound ; a second in the fleshy part of
the right arm, near the shoulder, and
the third iu the right thigh. None of
the wounds were sei'ious. Young. Dil
lion then pointed tho weapon to his
own breast and fired, the ball entering
the heart and causing death in a short
time. It was reported that after the
third shot the older Dillon attempted to
seize the pistol, and in his efforts to
change its direction it was pointed di
rectly at the breast of his son and dis
charged. This, however, was not
brought out in the evidence of Mr. Dil
lon himself at the Inquest, and no men-'
tion is made of it ; but another witness,
Isaac Ehrlich, stated that Mr. Dillon
ran at his son to seize the pistol ; hence
the report. The weapon used was a
perfectly new, lately patented, four bar
relled revolving Derringer, and apparent
ly had never been fired before. It car
ries a regular Derringer ball.

The Great Hair Producer.— Hair
Oils, Pomatum sand Pomades have had
their day. The;/- belong to the musty past.
Nobody that understands the chemistry
of tho hair and the philosophy of its
growth thinks .of using them. Instead
of clogging tho pores of the scalp with
thick onguentj,, and thus obstructing
the insensiblj perspiration which is
essensential to the health of the
fibres, we now tone the surface
of the he? (1 with an invigorating
application which penetrates to the
roots of tho hair and stimulates them in
the same way that the fertilizing agents
spread ove r the meadows stimulate the
grass roe its and cause the blades to
spring tip in myriads, coating tho earth
with verdure. The invigorant best
adapted to this purpose is Lyon’s Kath
aieon. It may well be called tho fer
tilizer of the head. To tho barren scalp
it communicates vegetative power. If
die hair is dropping out or becoming
dry and withered, it arrests the process
of dilapidation or blight. Tho hair
thickens and becomes glossy and flexible
under its genial operation, and as a
dressing it unapproached by any pre
paration that has yet been laid on the

DEFEND YOUR HEALTH.
THE FALL OF THE LEAVES NOT
only symbolizes human decay, but pro
motes it. In other words, tho effluvia
from dying and rotting vegetation is un
favorable to health. To this and other
causes—especially oxcess of moisturo in the at
mosphere—maybe ascribed tlie prevalence of
acute disorders of the stomach, bowols and
liver at this season. Every person of bilious
habit is liable to be very bilious in the Fall.
Then, too. all persons whoso digestion is weak
aro more than ordinarily dyspeptic, and indi-*
viduala predisposed to colic, diarrhaa and dys
entery are particularly likely to be attacked by
these complaints. Tho most complete defense
against each and all of these distressing ail
ments is bodily viger. To obtain this blessing
in all its plentitude where it does not exist.and
to preserve and perpetuate it where it does ex

recommended. It is the peculiar office of this
preparation to reinforce and regulate the im

Bodib- vigor depends upon the nourishing
qualities of that fluid, and the nutritiouaness
of tlie blood depends upon the functional ac
tivity and regularity which it is t lie special pro

best defense of health at this season, and in

TELEGRAPHIC SUMMARY.
Washington, October 10.—Col. Robb,
of Georgia, and Mr. Savage, of Califor
nia, two of the Commissioners appointed
by the President to take testimony rela
tive to depredations on the Rio Grande,
having returned to Washington, to-day
called upon President Grant, and had
with him a long interview. Congress,
at its late session, appropriated SO,OOO
to pay the expenses of the commission.
The President was much interested in
the narration of these agents, who will
prepare a formal report for transmission
to Congress, and was evidently gratified
with the manner in which they transacted
the b usiness with which they were entrust
ed. The incursions by armed Mexican
bands into Texas are numerous and have
continued ever since 1850. They have
since that time driven horses and cattle
estimated to be worth several millions of
dollars from Texas ranches across the
river into Mexico, where their plunder
is sold to soldiers and citizens. Gen.
Cortina, who is not at present in active
military service, but on waiting orders,
is represented to be one of the most
, active instigators of the incursions, by
| which he largely profits. Texans, while
endeavoring to drive the thieves, are
some times killed by superior numbers
of the Mexicau bands; while occasional
ly the latter suffer in like manner.
Owing to these frequent incursions the
border continues in a state of excite
ment. There is .*>nly one company of
cavalry on the frontier, which is of little
use, considering the distance which re
quires to be guarded is eight hundred
miles—from the mouth of the Rio Grande
to the extreme settlements. The infan
try is located along intervals. The dis
‘ tance is nearly three hundred miles from
Vort Brown to Ringgold Barracks, with
o ily one camp intervening. Some of
tho sufferers by the Mexican raids
traveled two hundred miles to give
thei r testimony, and expressed great
satisfaction that preliminary measures
had been taken, not only to protect but
to indemnify them for losses. General
McCook, commanding on the Rio
Grande, corroborated the statements of
the witnesses as to the boldness with
which the rails are made, and testified
to his inability, with an insufficient force
to give the required protection.
There is no reason to doubt tliat the
President, in submitting tho report of
the Commisioners to Congress, will ac
company it with a strong recommenda
tion that prompt measures be taken to
protect our citizens on "the border in
their lives and property.

New York, October 11. —Hon. W. H.
Seward died yesterday of tertian ague,
with catarrhal complication of muscular
palsy. Mr. Seward’s intellectual fac
ulties wero clear and vigorous to tho
last, save whon disturbed by a paroxysm
of fever. Just after the effusion from
his lungs to-day, and thinking it would
relieve his breathing, he was, at his own
desire, placed upon a lounge, boltered
up and moved from his adj oining bed
room into his study, where, in tho midst
of his books and his literary and other
papers, and surrounded by relatives
and a few friends, and all his devoted
dependents, ho breathed his last. For
the last hour of his life, as tho powers of
nature were giving way, liis condition
became easy and he spent his time in
affectionate leave takings of his relatives
and dependents, and finally sank quietly
to his last rest as if going to sleep.
Madrid, October 12. A Republican
insurrection has broken out among the
troops garrisoning the arsenal at 1) errol,
in the province of Caruna. The Gov
ernment has dispatched a force of troops
to the town, and summary measures
will ba at once adopted to suppress the
revolt.
Later details of the revolutionary out
break at Ferrol show that the garri
son of the fortress and the crew of the
Spanish war steamer Majerdo continue
to withstand the overture of the rebels,
and remained faithful to the Govern
ment. Notwithstanding this, the in
surgents had succeeded in gaining pos
sion of the gunboats which are anchored
in the harbor. They also obtained pos
session of the light house and imprison
ed the keeper. By these means they
have closed the port so that Govern
ment reinforcements cannot reach the
place by sea.
When the Minister of Colonies an
nounced the facts in the Cortes, the
Alphonist and Republican Deputies
took occasion to disavow any complicity
of their partisans with the movement,
and declared their sympathy with the
Government as against the insurgents.

OBITUARY.
Died, at his residence in this conuty, on the
18th day of September, 1872. Edmund B. Gres
ham. in the 64th year of his age.
The death of those we love falls heavily
enough upon our stricken hearts evon when
severe and protracted illness has in some de
gree prepared us for the sad event, but its bit
ttor pang is intensified when, as in tho present
instance, the summons comes unexpectedly
and almost without a warning. Although Col.
Gresham hail filled up the measure of a com
paratively long life, yet three score years hail
left but a slight imprint upon his genial face,
and time had dealt so lightly with him that his
elastic step and apparently undimiuished
strength gave promise that he' might be spared
to those he loved for many years to come But
God. in His providence, has" seen fit to disap
point our expectations and call him home, and
wo may not murmur at His decrees.
Long and widely known in this and the ad
joining counties, as well as in other sections of
the State, his death has carried sadness to a
large circle of admiring friends who knew him.
and knowing, could but love him. A man of
unswerving integrity and fine practical sense,
ho was called upon to fill many positions of
public trust and honor. Possessing an ample
fortune, acquired mainly by bis own exertions,
he was a man of large liberality and his means
ever at the command of those less fortunate
than himself. In his death the community in
which he lived has lost one of its most upright
and useful citizens. Hospitable, social and
genial, his friends will long remember as one
of the kindest and gentlest of men. To
family he proved a tender and affectionate hus
band, a kind and indulgent parent. Though
we shall see bis face no more upou the earth,
yet the memory of his good deeds and his many
virtues will remain a priceless herit&go for all
the years to come. *
Died, at his residence hi this county, on the
14th day of September. 1872, Geo. W. Hughes,
in the 29th year of his ago.
But a few short months have passed since
the subject of this notice followed the remains
of his father to their last resting place, and
now stricken down in the prime of early man
hood, after a brief illness of only thirty-six
hours, he too has been laid awav in the house
appointed for all the living, iruly, ‘‘God's
ways are not as our ways, nor His thoughts as
our thoughts.”
When old ago has roachoil its last tottering
step in its three score years and ten. and its
thread of lifo worn and fretted with timo at
last is broken, the grief oceaHionedbythoeveni
is mitigated by the consciousness that tho old
must die. But when tho angel of death tears
from tho fond embraco of a loving family its
head and support while yet in the strength and
vigor of life's early morning, it requires no or
dinary degreo of Christian faith and trust to
submit without a murmur to tho afflictive dis
pensation of lTovidenoe, and to feel amid tho
bitterness and anguish of a darkened homo
that ‘‘Ho doeth all things well."
And yet 'mid all life's weariness and pain, its
sorrow and its suffering, thero ever comes the
sweet assuranoe that tho blow that smites us
falls from a loving Father’s hand, and with the
tears we shed o’er those we love a pitying Sa
viour mingles his, for over tho gravo of buried
Lazarus we know that “Jesus wept.”
It is seldom that affection is oalled to mourn
tho loss of one in whom woro combined so
many of the nobler traits of human character.
Energetic and industrious in business, eminent
ly social in disposition, self-denying to a fault
and the very soul of honor. George won tho
esteem and love of all with whom he mingled.
Iu all tho relations of life ho was ever truo to
the instincts of a noble, generous heart. Du
ring the recent war the Bouth had no truor or
braver defender than he. With a constitution
seriously impaired by a year’s residence in tho
malarial climate of Texas ho was pronounced
unfit for military duty, but iu defiance of tho
surgeon’s decision bo entered tho ranks, and
until tho sun of Southern freedom went down
at Appomattox,no Southern soklior mot danger
moro fearlessly or suffered privation moro un
complainingly than did ho.
A few - years sinco ho booamo seriously con
cerned about religion; entered the communion
of the Methodist Church, and strove earnestly
until tho day of his doath to live the lifo of a
Christian.
In February, 1868, ho was married to Miss M.
Eugonia Clark, daughter of tho lato Dr. Samuel
Clark, and has left as tho fruit of that union
tw - o prattling cherubs too young to know their
inestimable loss.
Tho grave has closed over ills manly form
and the shadow of death broods over the sad
donod sorrowing household. May God look
down in pitying tenderness upon tho bereaved
ones in this sore affliction and onablo them to
feel that “Ho is too wise to on - , too good to bo
unkind.” And wlion with thorn “lifo’s fitful
fever is over,” and they too go down to rest
in the shadow of tho trees in the city of the
dead, may He grant them happy' reunion with
iheir loved and lost in that better land “where
tho wicked coaso from troubling and tho weary
are at rest." W. A- Cl
