A queer event was witnessed the other day in the case of forty frogs engaged in a battle, which lasted several hours- Result, one killed and several wounded. Anew and hitherto unknown epidemic is said to have broken out in some of the Brazil ian towns. It is terribly fatal, and thousands have been carried ott' by it. A former wealthy citizen of Chicago, and in ventor and proprietor of the once*famous Red Jacket Bitters, has just enlisted as a private soldier in the regular army. A decree has been issued by the Danish Gov ernment authorizing magistrates to inflict cor poreal punishment on Mormon missionaries who invade that kingdom.

A boy was attacked in the streets of New York by two young rascals, garrotcd and rob bed of 27 cents.

Within the past ten years Paris lias lost four hundred thousand of its resident inhabitants, arising chiefly from its disorderly course. It is said the number of vacant apartments exceed forty thousand. Rents have fallen and real es tate has depreciated. The managers of the New York and Erie Railroad have issued an order forbidding the sale of spirituous liquors at the restaurants along the road. Good example for other roads to follow. The rapid changes in fashion has broken up many of the leading dry goods firms of this country. It is necessary to keep large stocks in order to suit all tastes, goods go over, pass out of style, and the houses fail from the accu mulation of unsalable articles. Small-pox has broken out in San Francisco. This seems to be a year of plagues. Cholera in Europe, yellow fever in New Orleans, vomito in Cuba, small-pox in our leading cities, and the new epidemic in Brazil. Surely, the Lord is visiting us in his wrath. The following is a verbatim copy of the ad dress on a letter received in this city: “To the State of old Georgia this letter must go, To the city of Atlanta, the capital, you know, And when it gets there I hope it will stay, Till my friend Johnnie Woodruff takes it away.” During a recent visit to Egypt an English savant discovered the table of the old Egyptian law. These tables contain thirty command ments, and among them the ten commandments of the Mosaic Decalogue. The others refer to lesser matters, such as the removal of a neigh bor’s landmarks, and so on. Before the German war the Method ists had in France 30 ministers, 22 evangelists, 101 local preachers, and 2,848 members. The Annual Conference was not able to meet in 1871, and the losses of the war were very severe. The membership of the Church has slightly fallen off, and its interests have greatly suffered. The triumph of the age is a type-setting ma chine that will work. This has just been in vented by a fellow in New York. It sets 6,000 ems an hour, works by a treadle, has keys like a piano, and distributes as well as sets. Forty of these machines have been ordered by a lead ing publishing-house in New York, at a cost of S4OO each. A railroad “mash, up” on the Chicago and Northwestern road resulted in the telescoping of a caboose, death of five men, and wounding of six others. This is the fourth slaughter of the kind reported within three weeks. Fine time for travelers. Ride on, folks, and get killed. Later news of another collision has arrived. A correspondent writes of the “heated term” in New York as follows: “People do not simply melt but sizzle and boil, and not a lew are fairly burnt with heat. Since Sunday it would be safe to say one thousand cases of sun stroke have occurred, fully two hundred of them having a fatal termination. People have been stricken down in doors as well as out, and neither slate nor tarred roofs have been able to resist old “Sol’s projecting rays.” The South. Thirty-one counties of Virginia have levied a dog tax. Sensible. A South Carolina State Senator has been sent to prison for forgery. G. W. Ambrose, of Georgia, made fifteen and a half bushels of wheat on about one-third of an acre. Columbia, South Carolina, boasts of five snakes, two feet long, taken from the body of a dog in Camden. A sister of Daniel Boone, Kentucky’s great pioneer, still lives in Caldwell county, N. C., aged 85 years, hale and hearty. A railroad company in Virginia was fined $lO for running trains through Fredericksburg faster than the law allowed. Tom Scott has invested $150,000 In saw mills at Apalachicola, Florida, to saw out cross ties for the Southern Pacific Railroad. A young man at Johnson’s Bayou, Texas, skinned a cow that died of “ sharbone” cattle disease, and died of that terrible disease him self. The first steamship that ever crossed the At lantic ocean was the Savannah, in the year 1819, sailiug from the port of Savannah for Liverpool. The passage occupied sixteen days. The cattle disease is raging on the plains of Texas, the chicken cholera in the eastern por tion of the State, yellow fever along the coast, and horse thieves at San Antonio. Induce ments not very good there for emigrants while this lasts. During a great fire in Richmond, Va., the daughter of Rev. M. W. Staples, late agent, in New York city, of the American Bible Society, dropped dead from the excitement. There was never, perhaps,in Middle and East Tennessee, a more abundant crop of wheat than has been harvested this season. It is esti mated, that there will be an average yield of thirty bushels to tliejacre in both sections. The city of Dalton, on the 28th of June, voted SIO,OOO each to Mercer University and Wesleyan Female College, at Macon, in consid eration of the promise of those institutions to establish branches of their colleges in Dalton. Other places would be benefited if they would “go and do likewise,” that is, get institutions located among them, and support them after ward. The Churches. A Spanish church is to be erected at San Francisco. The whole number of Popes, from St. Peter down, is 257. The American Baptists have but one mission ary in Japan. There were thirty-nine Baptist churches built in England during the past year. Two hundred negroes have offered them selves to the American Missionary Society for missionary laborers in Africa. It is proposed to raise, in the Presbyterian Church.tlie coming year, $450,000 for the home, and $555,000 for the foreign mission work. The property of the Trinity Church corpor ation of New York is- said to be worth $70,- €OO,OOO. The highest average salaries of clergy men in New York are paid in the Protestant Episcopal Church, two ministers receiving $12,000. John Pickens,of New York,has deeded a farm worth $20,000 to the Church Extension Society, to be used in the Loan Fund forever. “Le shall honor him with your substance.” Bishop Marvin, of the M. E. Church, South, proposes anew kind of conference, consisting of members of the Sunday-school, to meet an nually. Archbishop Manning, of London, has forbid den the employment of female vocalists in Ro man Catholic churches under his jurisdiction after September next. The Southern Baptist Convention, in session lately at Richmond, Va., have pledged $20,000 for the chapel at Rome, and ask the friends at the North to raise the other half. The first Presbyterian Church in Elizabeth, New Jersey, has had regular services without intermitting a single Sunday for the last two hundred and seven years. The good practice of paying .the minister’s salary in monthly instalments is gaining ground among the Presbyterians. It is the easiest way for the people and the best for the pastor, and ought to come into fashion every-where. English Methodists are said to be divided into seveif distinct organizations, numbering in the aggregate 637,417 members, 2,904 ministers, and 32,385 local preachers. The proposition of organic uniou is being agitated with pros pects of some success. A number*of New York Methodists have bought three hundred acres of land on Shelter Island for camp-meeting purposes, and to erect Summer residences on for the benefit of our ministers who wish to spend the season at the sea-shore. The Baptist Theological Seminary in New ton, Mass., has an endowment of $325,000. A new brick building is about to be erected at a cost of $30,000, to furnish accommodation for married students. Most of this liberal sum was given by one man, B. F. Sturtevaut, Esq. The total contributions during the past year for the missionary enterprise from the differ ent organizations in the United States, was little more than £298,000, while that of the va rious societies in England alone amounted to £905,995; that is, over three times as much as contributed by us. Five young ladies of this city organized a Sunday-school here last February, and now over a hundred scholars attend it. They will soon have a chapel built for their use. Every Sabbath these noble girls walk over a mile to teach their classes. What a good example for others to follow! The year’s receipts, as reported at the anni versary ’of the American Congregational Church, held in Brooklyn, May Bth, were $78,- 125.09; the disbursements, in aid of thirty eight Churches and for other purposes, were $69,005.38, leaving a balance in the treasury of $9,118.71.

We clip the following from an exchange: In the Superior Court, in Boston, recently, a case of interest to the traveling public was de cided. In 1868 Mr. A. J. Coleman, of Boston, attempted to ride from New York to New Ha ven, on a coupon ticket, which was rejected by the conductor on the ground that, although it was good from New Haven to New York, it did not pass the holder in the opposite direc tion. Mr. Coleman insisted that the company was compelled to receive the ticket, as it rep resented money paid for a passage between those points, and he w r as put off the train by force, receiving such injury as to affect his health. He sued the New York and New Ha ven Railroad Company and recovered. The railroad obtained anew trial, and were beaten again. On exception to the ruling of the Judge the defendant obtained a third trial, which ter minated in a verdict for Mr. Coleman for $3,200. Holston Conference, Change of Time. In view of the public gatherings at Cleveland, Tennessee, at the time announced for the ses sion of the Holston Conference, and at the re quest of the presiding elder of the Chattanooga district, and other preachers interested, the time of said Conference is hereby changed from October 9th to October 2d.

Beware. —The public in general are cautioned to look out for the spurious articles put up in imitation of and as substitute for Simmons’ Liver Regulator. Buy only from respectable druggists, and see that it is put up in square packages and has the signature of A. Q. Simmons and J. H. Zeilin & Cos. on its side; all others are frauds upon the public. Beware 1 Ladies who have been disappointed and perhaps discouraged by having their orders carelessly and in differently attended to, can now remedy the evil, by ordering from New York direct, whatever that market affords in large or small quantities as occasion requires, by addressing the New York Purchasing Bureau, 704 Broadway, N. Y. An Office oponed un der the auspices of prominent New York merchants, and commanding the entire confidence of the com munity. Dealers and domestic consumers, will do well to send for explanatory circular. CAUTION! Every genuine box of Dr. McLANE’S LIVER PILLS bears the signature of Fleming Brothers, Pittsburg, Pa., apd their privateU. S. Stamp. no other; the market is full of imitations. It is the popular verdict that people who have been accustomed to the use of Bitters or Cordials, are obliged, eventually, to resort to McLane’s Liver Pills for permanent relief. 18—43 Fathers and Mothers. If you occupy these relations now, or are about to do so, study well your constitution. If you hav£ ac quired or inherited Scorfula or any disease which may be transmitted to your offspring, it is your solemn duty to eradicate it. Thousands of children are now suffering from the effects of poisonous disease trans mitted to them from their parents. The thought is terrible. You can save yourselves much sadness and solicitude and your dear little ones much pain and unhappiness by the timely use of Dr. Tutt’s Sarsapa rilla and Queen’s Delight. It will surely eradicate the taint from your system, or if it has already been entailed upon your child, give it at once this valua ble preparation and its system will be renovated and restored to soundness. Montgomery Cos., N. C., Sept. 11, 1869. Dr. Wm. H. Tutt : Sir —Please accept the heartfelt thanks of a mother who was well nigh driven to despair by the sad con dition of an only child. My little boy has been af flicted with Scorfula ever since his birth, and after trying every remedy that was recommended, and sev eral physicians had pronounced him past all hope, I accidently heard of your Sarsaparilla and Queen’s Delight. It was so highly recommended that I con cluded to try it, but I must confess with very little faith. He has taken nine of the bottles you sent me, and I am happy in being able to say that he is al most well; and I believe by the time he takes the dozen he will be perfectly restored to health. He has gained flesh, has a fine appetite, and now walks two miles to school. I shall always remember you with gratitude. ANN MURRAY. Dr. Tutt’s Hair Dye Is used In Europe and America. That Favorite Home Remedy, PAIN-KILLER, Has been before the public over thirty years, and probably has a wider and better reputation than any other proprietary medicine of the present day. At this period there are but few unacquainted with the merits of the Pain-Killer; but, while some extol it as a liniment, they know but little of its power in easing pain when taken internally; while others use it Internally with great success, but are equally ignorant of its healing virtues when applied externally. We therefore wish to say to all, that it is equally successful, whether used internally or externally. It is sufficient evidence of its vir tues as a standard medicine to know that it is now used in all parts of the world, and that its sale is constantly increas ing. No curative agent has had such a wide-spread sale or given such universal satisfaction. Davis' Pain-Killer Is a purely vegetable compound, pre pared from the best and purest materials, and with a care that insures the most perfect uniformity in the medicine; and while it is a most effective remedy for pain, it isw per fectly safe medicine, even in the most unskillful hands. It is eminently a Family Medicine; and by being kept ready for immediate resort, will Bave many an hour of suf fering, and many a dollar in time and doctor’s bills. After over thirty years’ trial, it is still receiving the most unqualified testimonials to its virtues, from persons of the highest character and responsibility. Eminent Physicians commend it as a most effectual preparation for the extinc tion of pain. It Is not only the best remedy ever known for Braises, Cuts, Barns, Ac., but for Dysentery or Cholera, or any sort of bowel complaint, it is a remedy unsurpassed for efficiency, and rapidity of action. In the great cities of India, and other hot climates, it has become the standard medicine for all such complaints, as well as for Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, and all other kindred disorders. For Coughs and Colds, Canker, Asthma, and Rheumatic difficul ties, it has been proved by the most abundant and convinc ing testimony to be an invaluable medicine. We would caution the public against all imitations of our preparation, either in name or style of putting up. Special Notices.
