From the Memphis Avalanche, July 30.] During the month of February, 1872,against the posit ve instruction of his attorneys, Mr. E. M. Apperson, of this city, us executor of Wade M. Bolton, paid over to Mrs. T. J. Jack son the sum of $5,000, half sum be queathed to her husband, General Stonewall Jackson, who fell in notion tttChanceilol'sville, Va., in 1864, white commanding a corps of Confederate troops. At an interview on the subject with Mr. Apperson yesterday he stated that the heirs of the Bolton estate have been in litigation for some time past concerning the distribution of the propoty, and while this legal con test remains undecided the attorneys deem it unwise for him to pay be quests not ordered bv the court. Contrary to this advice, however, and solely because Mrs. Jackson lias stated that she sadly needed the mon ey, the executor bus paid her half of the bequest, as above noted, lie lias also paid the several heirs considera ble sums on account of their prospect ive inheritances. valcbOf bolton’s estate. The value of the personal property belonging to the Wade Bolton estate is estimated at SSOO,IKJO. A claim was set up ill the courts some years ago by Wash Bolton and Tom Dickens, his former buism'ss partners, against Ike and Wade Bolton for all their estate is worth. Should the court de cide in favor of the claimants there will bo little or nothing remaining after satisfying the judgment. At the tiriie Wado Bolton made the bequest of slo uoo to Mrs. Jackson, lie was in hourly expectation of losing his life by violence. Havng expressed a desire to do something to enable his name to iivo in the memory of future generations unconnected with evil deeds, Mr. Apperson himself suggested a donation to Mrs. Jackson of S2S,IKK). Bolton liked the idea, but reduced the bequest to SIO,OOO. After his death, which happened a few months subsequent to the time of making t lie bequest. Mr. Apperson wrote ami infix me t Mrs. Jackson of the matter, telling her also that as soon as the terms of the law could be complied with, the sum should be made subject to her order. AN OI.l) 11!,I ODY I'rcun. There is a history connected with the gat tiering of tills large and valua ble Bolton i dale which is .full of thrilling events an I voilcut deeds. The proper! y was chiefly accumula ted by trading in slaves through a long series of y.iars. The business Arm, known a- ltdtoii & Dickens, had their location in a conspicuous iiuildiug, situated on the bluff ill front of the lower part of the city, near the once famous Gayoso House, Tourists oil passing steamers (then the only method of traveling) invari ably had their attention called to the largo painted letters which adorned the river-side wall of their structure, laud which read “Jlolten Ji Dickens, slave dealers.” The sign and the linn booth Figure in Mrs. Beecher Stowe’s story id. “Uncle Tom,” and many letter writers of the day re ferred and often commented severely upon it, and Bolton & Dickens had more than national reputation. They hail branch houses at New Orleans and elsewhere, and their agents penetrated every section of the coun try south of Mason and Dixon’s line in search of black people to supply the demands of their customers, who embraced planters throughout the ent ire Southwest. Many persons and large sums ol money were em ployed to aid them in this traflic. THE INITIAL TBAODEY. Over twenty years ago, a colored lad was purchased somewhere in Ken tucky, at a public sale, who had boon manumitted by a will of his master, and who was to be set free after he arrived at a certain age. The condi tions of the sale were named, and Bol ton & Dickens' agent, one McMillan, became the puenaser. Ho was con veyed to their mart in this city, and the firm subsequently sold the boy for the sum of sl,B<tuto Thomas B. Crenshaw, near Morning Sun, in this county. The boy was considered val uable, and brought a big price for those times, but ho was sold as a slave for life, nothing being said I about his promised freedom. The j colored boy informed his new master of the actual situation. Crenshaw ! sent to Kentucky for a copy of the : will, employed counsel for the boy and the court and sided against the | slave traders. They were forced to 1 return their ill-gotten dollars to j Crenshaw, and also to pay ixeavy costs fortheir misdemeanor. They had ex pected MeMilleii to testify iutheirfa vor. He failed to do so and stuck to the truth throughout, i The dealers managed to obtain a ) new trial, and having been deceived ] into the belief that McMillon would swear as they wished, to prevent his | reappearance, Isaac L. Bolton mur dered him in his own house. This was on the 2d day of June, 1857. The atrocity of the crime was widely com mented on throughout the entire country, and it created much excite ment everywhere. Bolton managed by hard swearing, sharp manoeuver ingand other tricks to have the venue changed to Tipton county, Tennes see. In the meantime his friends were active. They managed to iiave a : sheriff and other officers elected to suit their purpose. A jury was ob tained for the ease, and after the ex penditure of more than SIOOO,OOO in money Bolton saved his neck arid went clear. It is a remarkable fact that in less than four years afterward eleven of these same jurors had died j violent deaths, and the other also died i in an unnatural way some years uf | ter. COLUMBUS, GA., FRIDAY, AUGUST 13, L 875. . BLOODSHED FOLLOWS BLOODSHED. A quarrel onsuod botwean Ihe members of the slave dealer Ann, which had boon dissolved by limita tion within a few days of the murder ous deed, as to who should pay the enormous expenses of the trial. One party contended that the Arm should, be charged with the amount, and the other that Bolton himself ought to foot the bill alone, Th(f quarrel result ed seriouslv to the contending par ties. Ike Bolton, who did the kill ing, died a natural death some years ago. One after another the rest were killed in altercations with ouch other. Finally Tom Dickons killed Wade Bolton, as before mentioned by shoot ing him’down in front of Court square. Some months later Dickons was as sassinated while riding along the public road, a dozen miles or so from the city, and near his homo. A few months after that, Tom Dickens, his son, while trying to gather testimony to prosecute the supposed murderers of liis father, let his loaded gun drop carelessly, the concussion ouused it to go off and send the contents through Ills bosom, causing his death. This was the last death by violence. Since then several prominent mem bers of the family nave died in the usual way, and the survivors are in litigation as to how the estato shall lie divided. Immense sums have been expended in feeing attorneys In tile civil suits since the trial of Ike Bolton. Wado Holton gave to a sin gle member of liis counsel a planta tion on the Tallahtehie river in Mis sissippi, which cost him $64,00(1. The place, however, failed to realize for the attorney more Winn one-sixtli of its original cost-. The bloody feud having terminat ed, tho law contest will bo likely to end some day, and after that the heirs of the estate will doubtless re ceive their respeclive shares, that is if anything remains to be divided. • ♦ • THE IIU/ITMUItE Alll-sllll*. MB. SCItUfEDEU’s EXPERIMENTS- Ills PRESENT PLAN OF OPERATIONS NEW FEATURES OF THE ENTERPRISE. Reported for the Baltimore Him.) W. F. Schrceder, of Baltimore, whoso invention in the shape of an air-ship has been mentioned in the .Sim heretofore, is going ahead with tho work of constructing it, and ex pects to ascend from the intersection uf Boundary and Madison avenues about tho 20th of August and try a trip to Washington. Ho also believos that he will he able to make a voyage to Europe in fifty hours, and is san guine generally that his invention has “millionsin it.” Mr. Schrceder has had this project in contemplation for years, and those who know him intimately have ovory conlideueo in him as a practical, en ergetic mail; of much mechanical in genuity. Ho was, it is said, for years connected as an engineer with tho Prussian army, and during the Fran co-Prussian war did much service in the balloon corps, making frequent ascensions. Ho Is a tall, well-built young man, with fair complexion, light curly hair, and auburn board, and looks’like anything else than one of tho Darius-Green living muuUtuo type. In securing a patent for his inven tion Mr. Hohroeder was assisted by Mr. G. W. Gail, of the linn of Gail A Ax, who holds an interest in the en terprise. Mr. Gail, it was at tirst sup posed, would build tho balloon and air-ship at his individual expense as an experiment, but having referred Mr. Hohroeder and his models, draw ing, Sc., to u couple of skillful engi neers and received a report of their views on the practicability of the project, agreed to waive all claims to any part of the proiits to be derived from the exhibition of tho tirst air ship, and announced his determina tion to have nothing to do with the building of it. Mr. Sehrocdcrstat.es that other capitalists will hack him in building his balloon and air-ship, and lie could get twice us much capi tal as he wants without any trouble. Mr. Gail states that in withdraw ing from any connection with the building of the first balloon ho re served to himself all tho rights he lias acquired in the invention ami patent. Ho lias considerable faith in Mr. Hohroeder, arid would like to see him succeed in Ids undertaking, but he hesitates to enter upon a pro ject which he says “would call for $5,000 to carry out, but it- might very likely be more, and there would bo no telling where it. would end.” Mr. Hohroeder is having parts of the ship manufactured at different places. A wire-worker is making frames, a machinist firm is construct ing apparatus, and contracts have been made for lumber, linen, &e. It is expected that workmen will to-day begin fencing in the lot of in tersection of Madison ami Boundary avenues, where the work is to be pros ecuted. A correct description of the balloon and airtship, as it, is to bo, cannot be had at present, as the in ventor will probaly make some vari ations from the model. The balloon is to lie egg-shaped, very strong, and will hold 80,oou cubic feet of gas. From the machine, shaped like a lifeboat and suspended below, a steel mast will run up at each end, intersecting and bracing the balloon. The balloon and ma chine will tints be llrmly united. The car will be suspended below the ma chine. There is to be a rudder at each end of the machine, and also a propeller, each ilfteen feet long. ! These propellers working together j act the one to pull and tho other to push the ship forward. They are to make twelve hundred revolutions per minute. Gn each side will boa wing thirty-five feet long that flaps like a bird in flight, and will servo to raise or lower the balloon or make it stand still. A light eight-horse power en gine will work the machinery, and a gas generator is to be carried along. The whole affair, it is expected, will weigh 2,800 pounds, and will carry 12,000 pounds under ordinary condi tion. . Ugly nil* Duncan, Mliermiui A ! ((.■ New York, August 12.

Read, Reflect and Act. - ft* Si*? gf % If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from the cow’s udder and kept dry for years, then mois tened, and the keenest, point of a Lancet dipped in it and drawn gently ou tho 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 ontire life; again, if the 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 tho proper remedy, properly applied, neutralise and destroy tho poison, known us malaria, and thus enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with impunity? we claim that there is such a remedy, and that we have prepared it, and applied it, and proved it in our Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt—and that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit the worst malarial districts without the fear of having any diseases arising from malaria; such as Chills and Fever, Billious or Intermittent Fever, Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem orrhoids, and that it will cure all the above dis eases, except the worst cases of Billious and Yel low Fever. This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt, as it corrects the humors of the oody and produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys tem, ami thus enabling it to per.orm its various duties without fearing the effects of malaria iu the least. It has been tried iu thousands of cases without a failure. They can ho obtained from the proprietors in any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of Bread and Peachtree streets, Atlauta, Ga. Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran tee that it will cure or the money refunded. N. B.—None genuine without tho trade mark is stamped upon them. Drs.

Lovk A Willson: Gentlemen—ln April last I was taken sick with regular Fever and Ague, having it every alternate day. Alter it had run on mo for two weeks, 1 was induced to try one of your Anti-malarial belts; so 1 discarded all mediciue, ami Biraply wore one of your Belts as directed, and my Ague became lighter each suc cessive time thereafter for some three or four times, when it left mo entirely, with a good appe tite and clear skin; and in future, if I should ever have a Chill or Ague, I would want one of your Pads, and no physic. Wishing everybody that may be bo unfortunate as to have Chills and Fever may be fortunate enough to get one of your Belts, I am, respectfully, etc., w. j. Wilson. Atlanta, Ga., June 3,1875. Dus. Love A Willson: On the first day of December last I was taken with Chills and Fever in Thomasville, Southwes tern Ga., and was treated for the same by three eminent physicians who were able to stop it only for a few days at a time. It made such inroads on my constitution that my physician pronoun ced me to be in tho first stages of consumption, wli en I accidentally met up with Drs. Love A Will son’s Anti-malarial Belt, which lias entirely cured me. 1 have had but one chill since, aud that was the first day after putting it ou. lam now in as good health as I over was iu my lile, aud think this Belt a Ged-scnd to the afflicted. J. M. Mathews. Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4,1875. Some nine years ago I contracted malaria in Savannah, Ga., from which I havo suffered, at times, ever siuce, until I met up with Drs. Love A Willson’s Anti-malarial Belt some three months ago. I have worn it continually, aud have had no ( bill since, and find my general health, which has been poor, much improved. I would recom mend it to others Buffering with malaria. R. A. Wallace. Macon, Ga., June 4, 1875.
