The editor of the paper alluded to, states that one of his subscribers who had been in arrears ttco years, paid up and the consequence was that he slept sound ly for three or four eights, but fearing the trouble might come on again, went to the office ami paid a year in aokmce. ‘which proved an effectual cure.’ — i do not know that the ballance of the seven dedans will be sufficient to pay for two yeans in fidcanee\ if it should not, 1 will make it up on icing, informed, as l am determined to sec whether there ss any vir- • uire in the proscription.

We refer to Professor Holloway, whose desire is to benefit mankind; unstated by the countless cures his medi cines have accomplished, he is now actively engaged in revolutionizing the treatment of disease in this country. Conquest and subjugation are his objects —the conquest aud subjugation of the various mala dies that afflict the human race. The trophies of his skill are to bo found in every region of the earth, I fur his remedies are omnipotent, and whenever they | have penetrated, disease hag given way to their hy- j geninn influence. Probably there arc not half a | dozen newspapers in existence that have not borne! voluntary testimony to the wonder-vrorking efficacy j of Holloway’s Pills and Ointment. It has heretofore ; been the universal complaint Against enven the most popular medicines, that they were mere paUiutives, relieving pain temporarily, perhaps, but never reach ing the “■■utQt'srU.*. rnor(‘\’ or element of disease in the blood. Holloway’s Pills, on the contrary, act specifically upon the primary cause of the malady in the fluids of the body, and from which they spring, disease the Ointment is used as an aux iliary to the Pills, and its snnitivc efforts ft re scarce ly less wonderful. Wc make the*? assertion*- -bold ns they may seem —on solid grounds. We have warrant for thorn in the admissions of the (acuity—-in the statements of standard medical periodicals on both sides of the At lantic —in the published acknowledgments of thous ands of grateful convalescents—aud last, but not least, so far as our private convictions are concerned, in our own personal experience and observations. * To the man whoso profound research end practi cal skill in medical science have resulted in the pro duction of such unequaled curatives, ami whose busi ness energy and enterprise have diffused them through every inhabited region between the Equator and the Poles, the homage of the world is due. He has re ceived it. Wherever he has traveled luh journey have resembled a triumphal progress, and the most ybnughty of Europe’s aristocracy have been proud to assist at his levees. Ho is now a resident —and we hope he will become a citizen of a land where the only titles iccognixed are the titles to respect and earned by public benefactors. Among that class he has long stood pre-eminent, and it is perhaps not too much to say that his European and American central manufactories, 211 Strand, Lon don, and 80 Maiden Lane, New York, are doing more practical good than all the medical colieges of Eu- America combined.—•JV r .

Tilt: Atlanta Intelligencer of the 2t>th ult., says: “Judging from the number of companies passing almost daily through our city, on their way to Kan sas, we doubt not there will be a ‘.smart sprinkling’ of Southerners in this interesting region before many weeks. On Wednesday night a company of eigh teen or twenty passed through Atlanta, and on Thursday we noticed another company of forty one, all armed and equipped, going on their way rejoic ing. They were from Charleston and other parts of South Carolina. A company organized in this place, is expected to leave in a few days for the same destination.” The Earthquake in Japan. H. Ls. Doty, of California, who was at Sirnoda when the news of tho great earthquake at Jcddo was officially proclaimed, gives the following account of the calamity : “On the 11th November, at 9 hours 45 minutes, P. M., h shock was experienced, which aroused the inhabitants, who rushed into the streets. About throe minutes subsequently another shock occurred, which oscilliateu the earth northeast and southwest; the crash ol falling buildings was heard throughout the city; tires broke out in thirty different places, covering an extent of fourteen miles square. Anoth er shock, which threw everybody off their feet, suc ceeded. when the earth opened in the northeast part of the city, and closed over many thousand houses and inhabitants. The exact number of inhabitants, temples and dwellings had not been ascertained by the govern ment, but there had already been shown by tike dis trict records of the city that 30,800 people, five hun dred Budhist and Sintoo temples, one hundred and one thousand dwellings and stores were destroyed, and.it was thought when all the districts made their returns those numbers would be greatly increas ed.” lie also states that at Siiuoda, which is 60 miles from Jeddo, buildings were slightly damaged, and the people could not keep on their feet. Harry, the Negro Murderer Caught. The Montgomery Journal, of the 2d inst., learns that tho negro man Harry, who murdered Mr. Thom as J. Capehart, near Mount Meigs, on Saturday last, W9b taken on Monday evening on the railroad, by a small boy, and decoyed into Auburn. The boy sus pected that he was a runaway, and induced him to enter the town on the plea of partaking of some re freshments, and in the public room where they en tered there was a bill describing Harry, and offer ing a rows id of S2OO for his apprehension. lie was recognizednd arrested, ironed securely, and placed on the cars ia charge of the boy, .and dilivered safe ly at the Mount Meigs Depot An Item About Coffee. It may not generally be known that the tirade in j Java coffee is a monopoly held by tho Netherlands Trading Society. All of the’ coffee produced on tho Island of Java, therefore passes through tho hands of that Company, and the value t of this exclusive trade may 7 be estimated by the fact that there is to be sold at auction, in the Company's name, on the 31st inst., at Amsterdam, 225,694 bags of coffee, and on the *d of April, at Rotterdam, 167,302 bags, making 893,056 bags, to be sold almost simultaneous ly 7 . This, by the way, is the Netherlands Trading Society 7 which proposes to enter upon the direct cot ton trade with the South. Fire at Sea. Captain Mansou, of the ship Aguilla, whiqji arrived on the 29th u(t., in New Orleans, from Havre, reports ■ having seen on the 24th February, at 4 p. m., in lat. 26 deg. 30 mini, long. 26 deg. 85 min., a large ship on fire with two ships lying near her. Sailed near to her: her mast had fallen ; her decks burnt off; could not make out her name. Next morning saw the two ships which were near her when first seen lying to, and communicating as if they had saved 7 rew and were dividing them between the two vessels. Hon, Edward Everett. It is staled that at the earnest solicrtatkn of many Virginians who have erijoyed the rare pleasure of hearing Mr. Everett’s lectures, he has consented, should his health sustain him, to revisit Virginia in a short time, (in which event lie will lecture at Lynchburg,) extending his tour through several of tne .Southern States. The proceeds of aID-hts lec tures goto the fund for the purchase of Mount Ver non. — Pauperism iu New York. In a report of the Secretary of State to the Legis lature of New York, we have the following statistics of pauperism in that State: “County paupers 84,934; town paupers 18,412 ; total number relieved and supported 204,161; tem porarily relieved 159,092 ; expenses of county 7 poor houses $899,694 80 ; expenses of temporary reliei $480,265 71; total $1379,959 51. The expenses connected with the county poor houses amounted tc $899,694; the expenses for temporary relief to indi gent persons to $480,364. The average cost of each pauper per annum is $47 37 1-2. European Blunders. The Paris correspondent of the N. Y. Tribune, gives an amusing proof of the fact, that the Europeai papers do not understand America, a blunder of tht Emancipation Beige, congratulating the State ofOhic on having elected a nogro Governor of ihe common wealth—the Belgium journalist having attached a little sense to the political designation and nicknarm of “Black Republican f’ but the Times is not rnor accurate, when, seeing in the dispatches on account of some scattering votes on the ballots for Speaker, it seriously 7 speaks of Mr. Scattering among the can didates for the Speakership. Horrible. A man, under sentence of death at Charleston, Il linois, was recently taken from his cell by an infuria ted drunken mob, and hanged to the liinb of a tree. The only reason for this terrible affair was, that the execution was postponed a few day’s by the Governor, and the crowd that had assembled to witness the horrible sight, rather than be disappointed, broke iuito the jail with crow-bars, axes, etc., and hanged the prisoner at once. Several of the ringleaders have been arrested. hard against hasty temper. Anger will i come, but resist it strongly 7. A spark may set a house on lire. A fit of passion may give you cause to mourn all the day’s of your life. Never revenge, an injury. jJSFMIerc h a sentiment as beautiful as it is just: “He who forgets the fountain from which he drank, and the tree under whose .shade be gamboled in the days of his youth, is a stranger to the sweetest im pressions of the human heart. Why* are the ladic-s of the present day like the liilics of Scripture t Because they “toil not, neither do they spin; yet Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of them,” man who don’t take a newspaper is not on ly poor, but will always remain so. The loss men know, the less they earn. Folks who labor for seven ty-five cents a day, always sign their names with an X. ggTMany a true heart, that would have come back like a dove to the ark, after its transgression, has been frightened beyond recall by the angry look and menace the taunt, the savage charity of an un forgiving spirit. Punch is hard on the English style ol speaking French. The wag says that if one of his country men is asked “Paries vous Francois!” his answer is‘‘Tray beeangegee voo remcrcy.” And if he is further questioned, “Comment vous portezvous?” ho will re ply “Ung pew.” John Bull is certainly hard on French when he undertakes to speak it. ducat ion being fairly apportioned, females are better converscrs than men. They have quicker perceptions, less egotism, more sensibility, more dis interestedness, and what gives a charm hyitsspright liness, they have more imagination; this may not be under so good control as that of men, but it is always more chaste. They incline to speak as the heart prompts. Os course their expressions arc not studi ed. This gives to their manner more grace and na ture. Men are apt to wait for the slower working of the understanding; hence they are often deficient in ease. 8“j^ w The Brooklyn Eagle thinks shawls should be worn for the following rhyming reasons: “If you want to be in fashion, wear a shawl; ifto ladies an attraction, wear a shawl ; if to sheep and cow's a terror, or like shanhais in full feather, or even range upon tho heather, wear a shawl; if your hip • are badly moulded, or your shirt and vest un folded, or unpleasant to behold, wear a shawl ; if you’re courting some fine linnet, wear a shawl—you might wrap your lassie in it—in your shawl. Its like charity or pins, and hides a multitude of sins— although it causes grins—does your shawl. If you wish to be a dandy, wear a shawl—or have a cover handy, wear a shawl. In a word, it is a most useful article—as you may wrap your foot, head, body, knees, make a seat, a blankot, a muff, a pillow, a wrap-rascal, or a Scotch plaid, of your shawl.” Payments for the Crusader. will be observed that in making out our re ceipts, those who have paid up to the same date are arranged together, which date is placed to the last name.

Having associated with him D. 11. Herron, in the practice of Medicine, in its various branches, is now more fully prepared to attend to chronic cases at a distance, upon the same liberal terms that he has done lor several years, namely : any person who be ing afflicted with any form of disease, that will write out their symptoms, and inclose therewith five dol lars, and send the same to our address, will receive in return, medicine and directions to suit their case, for one month. Many persons have been treated and cured upon this plan, with a great saving to the af flicted; some of them living from 50 to over 100 miles, numbers of whom we have never seen, w hile we have had the consolation of meeting others after their convalescence. The undersigned has been closely engaged in the practice for more than 20 years, adhering strictly to the use of sanative remedies which are used in the Reformed Practice; having had much experience in the treatment of female diseases peculiar to this cli mate.

They remove the obstructions of the stomach, bowe's, fiver, and other organs of the body, and, by restoring their irregular ac’ lion to health, correct, wherever they exist, such derangements as are the first causes of diseace. An extosive trial of their vir tues, by Professors, Physicians, and Patients, has shown cures o dangerous diseases almost beyond belief, were they not .-.ubstanti atert by persons of such exalted position and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth. Their certificates are published my American Almanac, which the Agents below ns med are pleased to furnish free to all inquiring. Annexed we give Directions for their use in the complaints which they have been found to cure. I'oe Costivevess.— Take one or two Pills, or such quantity a- io gently move the bowels. Costiveness is frequently the aggrava ting cause of Piles, and the cure of one complaint is the cure of both. No person can feel well while under a costive habit of body. Hence it should be, as it can be, promptly relieved. Per Dyspepsia, which is sometimes the cause of Costiveness, and always uncomfortable, take mud doses—from one to sou stim ulate the stomach and liver into healthy action. They will do it and the heartburn, bodyburn and sovZtmrn of dyspepsia will rap idly disappear. When it has gone, don’t forget what cured you. Fora Foil Stomach, or Morbid Inaction of the Bowels, which yroduces general depression of the spirits and bad health, take from four to eight Pills at first, and smaller doses afterward.-', un til aztivity and strength is restored to the system. For Nervousness, Sick Headache, Nausea, Pain, in the Stom ach, Book, or Side-, take from four to eight pills on going to bed. If they do not operate sufficiently, take more the next day until they do. These complaints will be swept out from the ?y=tera. Don’t wear these and their kindred disorders because your stom ach is foul. For Scrofcla, EarsiPßi-ts, and all disease of ihs Skin, take i the Pills freely and frequently, to keep the bowel* open. The crop- i tion:; wil) generally soon begin to diminish and disappear. Many ‘ dreadful ulcers and sores have been healed up by the purging ar.d I purifying effect of these Pills, and some disgusting diseases which ! seemed to saturate the whole system have completely yielded to j their influence, leaving the n perfect health. Patients! ! your duty to society forbids that you should parade yourself 1 around the world covered with pimple?, blotches, ulcers, sore?, and j all or any of the unclean diseases of the skin, because vour eys'.om 1 wants cleansing. To Purify tuk Blood, they are the best medicine ever discover : cd. They should be taken treeiy and frequently, and tho impuri ties which sow the seeds of incurable diseases will be swept out ci the system like chaff before the wind. By this property thev do as much good in prexenting sickness as bv the remarkable cures which they are making every where. Lsvkr Complaint, Jaundice, and ail Bilious Affection* arir-2 from some derangement—either torpidity, congestion, or obstruct tioas of the Liver. Torpidity and congestion vitiate the bile and render It unfit for digestion. This is disastrous to the health, and the constitution is frequently undermined by no other cau.se. ’ In digestion is the symptom. Obstruction of the duct which empties the bile into the stomach causes the bile to overflow into the blood. This produces Jliundice, with a long and dangerous train of evils! Costiveness, or alternately costiveness and diarrhoea, prevails. Feverish symptens, languor, low spirits, weariness, restlessness, and melancholy, with soihetimes inability to sle?p, and sometimes great drowsiness; sometimes there is severe pain in the side; the skin and the white of the eyes become a greenish yellow; the stom ach acid; the bowels sore to the touch; the whole system irritable, with a tendency to fever, which may turn to bilious fever, bilious colic, bilious diarrhcoa, dysentery, Ac. A medium dose of three or four Pills taken at night, followed by two or three in the morning, and repeated a few days, will remove the cause of all these trou bles. It Is wicked to suffer such pains when you can cure them for 20 cents. Rheumatism, Goer, dad ail Inflammatory Fevers are rapidly cured by the .purifying effects of these Pills upon the Wood and tho stimulus which they afford to the vital prinoiple of Life. For the?e and all kindred complaints they should be taken !n mi'd dose? to move the bowels gently, but freely. Asa Dinner Pill, this is both agreeable and useful.

April 5-13 Beautiful Assortment of Valentines i ;.rrKBRIAHV ,-lth. ISSO.^a I HAVE just received from New York, Balti more, and Philadelphia, the most extensive as sortment of Valentines ever offered in this place, and every thing connected with them, such as Writers, Verses, Envelopes, Lace Paper, &c., and am prepar ed to fill orders, Wholesale or Retail, at prices from five cents to twenty dollars. 1 have invoked Venus, the goddess of beauty and love, and her darling Cupid, and they have gracious ly chosen for their retreats the Madison Book Store, and have commissioned their friend, Benjamin g! Liddon, as high priest of love, courtship and roarri mony. “Tho world is full of poetry—the air Is living with its spirit; and the waves Dance to the music of its melodies And sparkle in its brightness.” This spirit of poetry arouses our loftier train of af fections, which are borne upon the gilded wings of Cupid s messenger, in the form of a Valetine, tosome lair friend breathing the pure sentiments of friend ship, efiteem, and all tho kindlier regards for those to whom we donate. It may, perchance, be received with silent approval, told only by the fair face, ‘•Where eloquent blushes burn and fade, Rich with the wealth of warm emotion; Or starry dimples mock the shade, Liko jewels in a restless ocean.” Valentines are the ambassadors of thought, where language fails. They substitute, in glowing eloquence, the reading of tho heart, by their symbolic meaning. Faithful to my trust, as a se vant of the public I am doing all in my power to further the interests of those youths and maidens who are suffering from an affection of the heart. To all, of every age, and of every rank in life, I offer a speciflc that has never failed. Such is the wonderful power of the Valen tines sold by me, as a philanthropist and conservator of the tender passions, that none make love without sending one as a pioneer. BENJ. G.

Burnley, Esq. It contains 1050 acres, more or less, about 350 cleared, the rest in the woods, and I buzzard nothing in saying, that some of this land is as good as any to be found in the CQun f y. — There arc about 200 acres oak and hickory land, well adapted to the growth of corn and cotton. But to any one wishing to engage in the Lumber business, this place offers rare inducements. There is a good SAW MILL, with excellent water privileges on the premises, and by a smp-11 outlay in fixing up tho dam, any one of industry may soon realize the amount paid for the place. There arc also, two sets of Mill Stones, w hich is an inducement to any one wishing to erect a Grist Mill. A good framed House with several Negro Cabins stand near by, for the ac commodation of a miller and hands. The market for lumber is good. The mill is two miles from Powelton, ten from Sparta, aud six from ! Mayfield. Public roads pass by the the mill to each j of these places, which bring them in direct commu i ideation. The route surveyed for the Rail Road from j Warrenton and Milledgeville is but a short distance from the line of the land, and if it is built, will make the tract almost invaluable, i wish to sell the whole in a body, but if desired, will sell in parcels to suit purchasers. .Several clligible building sites, with good Springs, make a division quite practicable. As I am too far removed to make these lands avail able. my residence being in the Southern portion of the State, I am determined to sell, and 1 promise any one in want of such a place, that by applying to me early, at Perry, Ga., they shall have a bargain, eith er f>r their own use or for -peculation.
