THE SAVANNAH RECORDER.
Monday, March o, 1879.
f GEORGIA NEWS.
Died, near Ringgold, on the 13th
inst., Mr. Wm. Roddy, in his 78th
year. the resi¬
Dr. Swift, of Dalton, died at
dence of Maj. Lester, on West Hill, last
Wednesday.
Mr. Wm. F. Matthews, a well known
and highly esteemed citizen of the
lower part of Clarke county, died sud¬
denly on Monday morning, of neural¬
gia of the heart. "X
On Monday, a white man named
Ledbetter, was shot through the bow¬
els, by a negro, on or near the premises
of Mr. Joe. Williams, in Madison
county. Ledbetter died and the negro
escaped.
Capt. W. R. White, conductor on the
ilLfated Selma train, died from his in¬
juries. His family were with him. His
remains will be brought to Dalton for
burial. The Masonic fraternity will
probably conduct the funeral services
We are told, says the Dalton Head¬
light that Mr. George R. Evans, of
, bridge
Selma, killed in the recent
smash up, was actually drowned to
death by slow degrees. One of bis
feet was caught between a pier and one
of the timbers of the wreck, which held
him fast. A rope was tied under his
arms, by which means he was held up
out of the fast rising water, which was
gathered by the drift caused from the
wreck. It was impossible to loosen his
foot, there being but few persons able
to help themselves on the ground, and
he was compelled to await his impend¬
ing doom, begging, meanwhile, piteous¬
ly that some one would cut off his foot
and relieve him. No one could do this,
and the water higher, gradually passed came up
higher and till it strangled over him
his mouth and nose and
to death.
The Vatican has rarely, if ever,
known a more vigorous and able ad-,
ministrator than Leo XIII, This Pon¬
tifical new broom is making a dean
sweep of the vast accumulation of
abuses which, under the protracted and
easy sway of his predecessor, had in¬
creased and abbe multiplied is within its walls.
A F rench reported to have said
to an English rector : “What I should
like would be one ot your livings, a
charming sinecure, with nothing to do
bnt to believe in God.” When Leo
assumed the reins he found his palace
a perfect hotbed of such appointments.
There were, for example, certain func¬
tionaries called “expeditionaries,” who,
by being permitted to extract enor¬
mous fees lor certain official certifi¬
cates, gained twice as much as a Car¬
dinal by working less than a couple
hours a day ; their posts passing, like
the old “patent places” in England,
from father lo son, unclq, to nephew.
These functionaries are now amazed
to find themselves compelled to give a
good day’s work for a greatly reduced
salary, and to pay _a tine if they are
not on time in the morning, His Hoi
iness is, of course, cordially detested
by those who are inconvenienced by his
reforms, but for thi3 he cares not a jot.
Financial troubles could nothave fall¬
en on a Potentate more competent to
deal with them. It is reported on
excellent authority that he lately con¬
voked a meeting of leading Cardinals,
and plainly told them that the penury
of the Vatican had become so extreme
that he would not conceal from them
that he thought lor a moment ot the
millions which the Italian Govern¬
ment always holds at the disposal of
the Holy See. This statement pro¬
duced the consternation intended, and
evoked a chorus ot assurances that
those addressed would exert all their
energies to abate the difficulties sur¬
rounding the head of their Church,
and use all tlieir influence with those
whose interests would suffer from un¬
avoidable economies to make them
listen to reason.— H. Y. Times.
Leather in One Hour. —Wonder¬
ful are the changes that have been
effected of late years in the manufacture
of leather by the use of chemicals and
machinery, in place of the old-fashioned
tanpits currier and and the slow manipulation If of
the tanner. some of out
old leather manufacturers could be re
surrected—men who were accustomed
to soaking their hides for years and
turning them assiduously at certain sea¬
sons—how they would start to se* 1 the
present process. But every day we
hear of something new in this direction.
A joint stock company was recently
formed in Detroit for the purpose of
tanning leather in one hour. The pro¬
cess is a chemical inexpensive one performed by the
action of certain materials,
the compounding of which in the right
proportions is a secret. It is claimed
that robes, tanned with the hair on,
are soft as the finest wool; huDs of the
deer, horse, dog, dm., are smooth and
soft, while call and kip show the tex^
ture and grain which shoemakers most
admire. No bark is required except a
little to give the proper color to the
leather. Bark is worth 88 to $0 a cord,
and about, two hundred cords are re¬
quired method. to tan 1,000 hides by the COUD |
mon Two cords would be !
sufficient to give the proper color to !
the same number of hides, and the sav
iug in this item will be enormous, The
company are turning out from two
thousand U> ihioe thousand hides pet
month.

Death Rate in Cities
According to a table prepared by the New York
health department, in relation to the death rate
in proportion to population of the principal ci ties
of the world, the two American cities that show
the heaviest death rates are Baltimore andWash
ington, the former being 25.41 and the lattar 25.64
per 1,000. The death-rate in the principal foreig n
cities is considerably higher than in the principal
American cities. We append a Itst of the cities,

Negro Slavery Under English
Rule. —The English slave trade, in
fact, began with Sir John Hawkins in
the year 1562. He had obtained leave
from the Queen to carry Africans to
America with their own free consent,
but he forced them on board his ships,
not without slaughter, and escaped
without punishment; nay, a few years
later, received high honor from the
Queen.- When Virginia attained a
fixed condition as a colony—scarcely
before 1015, in which year 50 acres of
land were assigned to every emigrant
and his heirs—the cultivation of tobac¬
co instantly followed. Five years later
a Dutch ship brought a cargo of negroes
from the coast of Africa, whom the
Virginians joyfully received as slaves.

mittent Fever, Iuturmiti nt or Chill Fever, Re¬
Bilious Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical
orders. or Fever, and all malarial dis¬
In mi.- u->fie districts, the rapid
pulse, coated tongue, thirst, lassitude, loss of
appetite, pain in the hack and loins, and cold¬
ness of the spine and extremities, are only
premonitions of severer symptoms which
terminate in the ,-igu - pan m, succeeded
by high fever and profuse perspiration.
It is a startling fact, that quinine, arsenic,
and other poisonous minerals form the basis
of most of the ‘ Fever and Ague Prepara¬
tions,” “Specifies,” “Syrups,” and “Ton¬
ics,” in tiie market. The preparations made
from these mineral poisons, although they
are palatal tie, and may break the chill, do
not cure, but leave the malarial and their
own drug poison in the system, producing
quinism, dizziness, ringing disorders in the ears, head¬
ache, vertigo, and other more for¬
midable than the disease they were intended
to cure, Avrii i Ague Cure thoroughly
eradicates these noxious poisons from the*
system, and always cures tiie severest cases.
It contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing
that could injure the most delicate patient;
and its crowning excellence, above its cer¬
tainty to cure, is that it leaves the system us
free from disease as before the attack.
For Liver Complaints, Ayer’s Ague
Cuke, by direct action on the liver and bil¬
iary apparatus. drives out the poisons which
produce these complaints, and stimulates the
system to a vigorous, healthy condition.
We warrant it when taken according to
directions.
