He fell again in climbing over the fence, in attempting to make his way to those who were to meet him. He saw i>eople either standing or walk ing in whatever direction lie went, and fear of being recognized caused him to avoid them. This delayed him so long that when lie reached the appointed place of meeting his friends lmd gone, and lie did not see them at all. lie did not say who they wore, or where they were to meet him. Ho made his way alone to the house of a colored woman near the eastern edge of the city, and while there met with Andy Johnson. Ho sent Andy in town for several tilings, amongst them a map. When Andy returned, suspecting Unit he had be trayed him, he forced him fAndyj to go with him. He hired a colored man, whose house he came upon, to carry them in a wagon to Camden. After they had crossed the bridge, he sent the wagon back and attempted to walk into Camden.

Parker.” The reply was, “Don’t come here; go away.” He went away , and was afraid to go near anyone else. MAD tilt FAI.IX A LAOV AND OLNTI.UUaN DItOtVNKD.

Printed from new type, and illus trated wit'll Several Thousand Engravings aud Maps. The work originally published under the title of Thk New American Cycloi'XDlA was com pleted in 1863, since which time the wide circula tion which it has attained in all parts of the United States, and tho slgualdevelopments which have taken place iu every branch of science, lit erature aud art, have induced the editors aud publishers to submit it to ar. exact and t horough revision, aud to issue a now editiou entitled The American Cyclop adia. Within tlie lust ten years tho progress of dis covery lu every department of knowledge has made anew work ol' reference nn imperative want. Tho movement of political affairs lins*kopt pace with the discoveries of science, aud their lruitfu application to tho industrial aud useful arts aud the convenience and reffnomeut of social life. Great wars aud consequent revolutions have oc curred, involving national changes of peculiar moment. _ Tho civil war of our own country, which was at its height when the last volume ol tlie old work appeared, has happily been ended, and anew courso of commercial aud industrial activity has been commenced. Large accessions to our geographical knowl edge have been made by the indefatigable ex plorers of Africa. The great political revolutions of the last de cade, with the natural result of the lapse of time, have brought into public view a multitude ol uew men, whose names are in every one’s mouth, and of whose lives every ono is curious to kuow the particulars. Great battles have been fought and important sieges maintained, of which tho de tails art' as yet preserved only iu tho newspapers or iu the transient publications of the day, but which ought now to take their place lu perma nent and authentic history. In preparing the present editiou for tho press, it lias accordingly been tho aim of tlie editors to bring down the information to the Intent possi ble dates, aud to furnish uu accurate account of the most recent discoveries in science, of every fresh production iu literature, and of tho newest Inventions iu tho practical arts, as well as to give a succinct and original record of tho progress of political and historical events. The work has been begun niter long and care ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample resources for carrying It on to a successful term ination. None of tho original stereotype plates have been used, but every page has been printed on new type, forming in tact a uew Cyclopedia, with the same plan and compass as its predecessor, but with a fur greater pecuniary expenditure, aud with such improvements In its composition as have been suggested by longer experience aud enlarged knowledge. The illustrations which aro introduced for the first time iu the present editiou have been added not for the Bake of pictoriul effect, but to give greater lucidity and force to the explanations iu the text. They embrace all branches of Bcieuco and of natural history, and depict the most famous and remarkable features of scenery, architecture and art. us well as the various pro cesses of mechanics and manufactures. Although intended for Instruction rather than ombellshmeut, no pains have been spared to in sure their artistic excellence; tlie cost of their execution is enormous, and it is believed they will find a welcome reception as an admirable feature of the Cyclopaedia, and worthy of its high character. This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable on delivery of each volume. It will be completed iu sixteen largo octavo volumes, each containing about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous colored Lithographic Maps.

If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from the cow's udder and kept dry for years, then mois tened, and the keenest pointer a Lancet dipped in It and drawn gently ou the arm, so as not to draw the blood, will so impregnate and change the entire system as to prevent the party so vac cinated from taking the most loathsome of dis eases (small pox) for au entire life; again, if ths Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at mosphere the poison malaria, why will not the S roper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and estroy the poison, known as malaria, and thus enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with impunity? Wo claim that there is such a remedy, and that wo have prepared it, aud applied it, and proved it in our Anti-malarial or Eucliymial Belt—and that persons who will wear this Belt may iuhabit tho worst malarial districts without the fear of having any diseases arising from malaria; such as Chills and Fever, Blllioua or Intermittent Fever, Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem orrhoids, ami that it will cure all the above dis eases, except the worßt cases of Billious and Yel low Fever. This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt, us it corrects the humors of the oody aud produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys tem, and thus enabling it to per.orm its various duties without fearing the effects of malaria in tho least. It has boon tried iu thousands of cases without a failure. They can be obtained from the proprietors in any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of Broad ami Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga.

It made such Inroads on my constitution that my physician pronoun ced me to be in tho firßt stages of consumption, tf h eu I accidentally inet up with Drs. Love k Will son’s Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured mu. I have had but one chill since, and that was the first day alter putting it on. lam now iu as good health as I ever was in my lile, and think this Belt a God-scud to the afflicted. J. M. Mathews. Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4,1875. Home nine years ago I contracted malaria in .Savannah, Ga., from which I have suffered, at times, ever since, until I met up with Drs.

I would recom mend it to others Buffering with malaria. R. A. Wallace. Macon, Ga., Juno 4, 1875.
