Beautiful.
Can anything surpass the following beautiful,
chaste, and eloquent description of pure cold water,
by Jno. B. (laugh? Read it and lling away the
* poisonous wine cup, and take the pure liquid “which
God our Father gave us.” “Take it as it is—bright,
beautiful, and blessed.”
“Look at that liquid which has been produced
from the clear dislillery of nature,” (holding up a
. glass of water.) “The eternal father of us all has
brewed it for his children. It lias not been produced
in filthy distilleries, but in beautiful, fragrant places.
It has been brewed down in the mossy dell, where
the deer linger and the rippling springs sing their
wild lullaby; or away upon the mountain tops where
the blazing sun has lighted it up with Heavenly
lire; or afar off upon the ocean, where the showers
and storms are born. It sparkles in the icc gem.
11 makes the graceful frosts tissue on which the
moonlight plays. It dallies in the cataract ; weaves
the snow wreath and the emerald settings on the
mountain peak. It never injures, but always does
good. It is ever beneficent and kind. God made
it glorious.—Take and drink. Take the pure liquid
which God our father, gave us. Take it as it is—
bright, beautiful and blessed.”

to strengthen our faith, than assurances of (he fact,

An Astonishing Man—Famed Throughout
the World.
New York and Londou arc now the great manu
facturing depots for Holloway’s Pills and Ointment.
From No. 80, Maiden Lane, this city, and No. 244,
Strand, London, are sent forth, daily, millions of
boxes and pots of these inestimable medicines. The
heavy duty imposed by our government upon pa
tent medicines, and the large and constantly increa
sing sale of Holloway’s Pills and Ointment in this
country, determined their proprietor to mak-e this
city his reside ice. Our republican system of gov
ernment is also in harmony with the predilection of
Professor Holloway; and though Kings amLEiupo
rors have conferred upon him honors and especial
favors, these will never be so gratifying to him as
the grateful hearts of millions of free citizens; drtio
without any endorsement of* sovereign authority,
freely patronize his celebrated remedies for the pre
vention- and removal of disease.
Asa member of ihe medical Shculty, having long
i witnessed the. inefficiency of the profession itveuf ing
! disease, and bring familiar with the errors and fol
j hes t thr proi *>son, we fee! it an imperative duty
I to acquaint Oh American public with the arrival, of
this distir.gui-.hed physician in our city. His fame
m a measure, preceded him to our shores, but the
extent of the good he has done in the world has
never yet been proclaimedb>.an American public.
Great as his reputation, is; it.is destined to increase
tar beyond that which ever adorned (ho character
°t any man whose profession was that of healing the
sick.
e -nad embrace other occasions to explain to
the American people the system, the theory, and
.node of cure adopted Ky Professor Hollowav. His
Pills and Ointment, the one taken internally, and the
Oilit-; applied extern ally, act. in harmonious conjunc-
tion, and if his directions are folio wed, will eradicate
every disease incident to man in ail climes, ‘tyiey
I purify and cleanse the body, and restore healthy
action in every organ. Our space will not permit
us to say more at this time respecting this distin
guished man and his celebrated remedies. He has
one ambition, and it is an honorable one. He wishes
to have the world fora patient; and he will succeed j
in his desire.
It ’.sour object to address the American public in j
a series of articles, showing conclusively that, iri the
whole history of medical science, no medicines have!
ever been offered for their use which are so effica- !
cions in restoring health and preventing disease as |
those of Professor Holloway. In this series of arti- j
cles we shall necessarily explain much of the human
system, and those physiological laws of life control
ling our bodies, both in health and disease. The
American public are sufficiently intelligent to judge
of their owji interests, and it is no longer in the pow
er oi those styling themselves re-guTar physicians to
conceal from them important truths concerning their
health.—A etc Yorh Citizen.
Fraud Upon the Government.
Suspicion of fraud having been excited in the
Pension office at Washington by the great number
of new claims for bounty land and pensions for rev
olutionary service, sent from Columbia county, in
this State, as well as by the inconsistency of the affi
davits of the claimants, the head of that department
despatched Mr. Stephen G. Dodge, special agent to
Georgia to investigate the claims, which owing to the
respectable character of some of the witnesses, had
been pressed with considerable energy by our dele
gation in Congress. Mr. Dodge came to Savannah,
and through U. S. Marshal Daniel 11. Stewart, com
municated with Deputy U. S. Marshal Thomas L.
Ross, of Macon, who met the agent in Augusta, and
proceeded to investigate the claims. Evidence of
the most unmitigated fraud was soon obtained, and
Mr. Dodge, leaving Mr. Ross still prosecuting his
inquiries, came to this city, where he obtained war
rants for the arrest of Dr. Henry A. Ramsay and
Richard W. Jones, of Columbia county, on the
charge of having fabricated testimony m support of
false pension claims. Proceeding to Augusta the
warrants were placed in the hands of Deputy Mar
sha! Ross, who, assisted by Marshal Christian, of
Augusta, made the arrests on Sunday last. Ramsey
and Jones, with some twenty witnesses, were
brought to this city, and the examination was com
menced before U. S. Commissioner Charles S. lienrv
on Wednesday. Judge Henry required the prison
ers to enter into bonds for their attendance during
the examination, of SSOOO, which bond was given
by Ramsey, but in default of which, Jones was lodg
ed in jail. The examination of witnesses disclosed
the grossest fraud and deception which had been
practised upon persons whose affidavits had been
obtained in support of false claims, and on Wednes
day night Dr. Ramsey, who seems to have been the
plotter and principal executor of a scheme to de
fraud the government, absconded during the night,
forfeiting his bail, and has not since been heard of.
Wc understand that false papers had been made
out in some twenty cases, all in Columbia county, !
and that in the procurement of the necessary affida
vits, the grossest imposition was practised upon
honest and unsuspecting persons.
Much credit is due to Mr. Dodge, the Government
agent, for the energv end prudence with which he
has conducted the investigation by which the fraud
was brought to light; and to Marshal Ross and Stew
art for their promptness and industry in bringing the
offenders and the witnesses before the Commissioner.
Vigilant efforts are being made so the re-arrest of
Ramsey. Jones is still in the Savannah jail.
A reward of S6OO has been offered for the appre
hension of Dr. Henry A. Ramsey, who forfeited his
bail of SSOOO, (for which his father was security,)
and tied from Savannah on Wednesday night. The
officers are in pursuit of him.

Gen. Green’s Family.
1 here has been a report in circulation for some
time, that the grand children of Gen. Greene are in
destitute circumstances. It appears that there is no
foundation whatever for the report. The Providence
Journal presents some facts relative to this subject.
I he Oldest son of Gen. Greene, George Washington,
was taken to France by Lafayette in 1785, (the year
of his father s death,) when about nine years of age,
and was cared for and educated by the distinguish
patriot. After the execution of Louis XY 7 1. his
mother, fearing for his safety, sent for him, and he
arrived home in 1794, and was soon after unfortu
nately drowned in the Savannah river. He was then
only eighteen years of age, and left no posterity.
Ilis youngest son, Nathaniel Ray, is now living in
this Stale, in independent circumstances. Gen.
Greene left three daughters—Martha. Washington,
Cornelia Lott, and Louisa Catharine. They all mar
ried Southern gentlemen— two of them twice—and
they and their posterity have always occupied highly
respectable positions in society. The second of
them, Mrs. Littlefield, is now living at the South,
and is seventy nine years of age. She is an intelli
gent and accomplished lady, and some of our readers
may recollect that we published last summer an in
teresting letter written by her respecting a portrait
of Washington by Stuart. It may not be improper
to say that there are now living In this State many
of the family and the blood of Gen. Greene. Some
of them are affluent, some of them possess redundant
wealth, and not one of them, justly proud as they
all are of the fame of their great kinsman, would
suffer bis immediate posterity to cat the bread of
charity, grudgingly bestowed by the hand of stran
gers.— Wilmington (X. O.) Commercial .

.Immediately after the.adjournment of the Senate,
on the 22d ult.. and while still in the Senate Clwin
her, Mr. Sumner was approached by Mr. Efrooks, one
of the members of the House, from South Carotin a,
who accused him of libeiliog his State and slaupW
ing his gray headed relative, Senator Butler.
He struck Sumner with a cane, felling him to the
floor, and repeated the blows until he was deprived
of the power of speech. * ■
No one interfered until the caning was effected
Sumner was then carried to his. room. It is not as
certained whether his injuries are serious or not.
Some eve-witnesses say that Brooks .struck Sum
ner as many as fifty blows on his head. The latter
i* terribly prostrated. He was sitting in an arm
ohair when the assault was made upon birr .
Brooks has been arrested and carried before Jus
tice Moiling* head, and field to bail in ss<h> to ap
pear to- iiorrow and answer.

Senator Sumner.
Wc learn that Mr. Sumner was in a high fever all
last night, and that he summoned his physicians,
Dr. Boyle, of this city, and Dr. Perry of Boston, who
pronounced him in a critical state, and gave positive
order* that no one should he admitted to his room
except his brother and Secretary. After dressing
hi* wounds, one ol .. hich Was considerably inflam
ed, they gave him sleeping powders. They also
ordered poultices to the wounds. It is un
derstood that Dr. Perry, who has heretofore been
attending him as a friend, is now called in as one of
bis physicians. The danger apprehended is from
brain fever and from erysipelas of the scalp.

The Gun Boat Fleet of England.
The London Times says the invention of a gun
boat fleet, as the mainstay and principal feature in a
naval armament, is indeed a novelty in war. Like
other discoveries, also, it lias grown out of the ne
cessities of the times. The practical efficiency of
England's naval fleets, it says must be computed by
the number and equipments of the mosquito swarm
of minute vessels, and not by the squadrons of ships
of the line. Il these vessels are so available for at
tack, are they not equally as serviceable in defending
a harbor? One of the standing subjects of ridicule
against Jefferson used to be his recommendation of
harbor defence by a gun boat flotilla. Yet modern
experience has brought one of the most ingenious
nations of the world to adopt the gun boat system
ai the most effective which can be employed in shal
low water.
Count Nesselrode.
The venerable Chancellor of the Russian empire,
who has served in diplomacy imder four successive
Czars, beginning with Paul I, retires with the high
est honors, a colossal fortune, and the title of Arch-
Chancellor. Count Nesselrode i.; of German family,
he is seventy-six years old; his mother was of a
Jewish family; he was christened a Protestant on
board of an English man-of-war. In early life he en
tered the army; in 1802 he was attached to the Rus
sian embassy at Stutgard, whence he went as charge
to the Ilazue, and next, in the same capacity, to
Paris. Count Nesselrode early gained, and always
retained, the confidence of his sovereigns. He was
thoroughly Russian, but employed Germans mostly
jn his office. This distinguished man framed the
Russian-Napoleom’c treaties; he accompanied Alex
ander to Aix-la-Chapelle, Troppan, Laylack, and
Vienna, lie held a leading position at the Congress
of Vienna. • Although lie was the highest civil digni
tary in the empire, Count Nesselrode never med
dled with the domestic policy of Russia.

A Gay Lothario.
Omar Pasha, notwithstanding his threescore years
has just married a young lady fifteen years of age,
the daughter of the unlucky General Nafiz Pasha.
The bride and her family were strongly opposed to
the match, and only yielded a reluctant assent in
consideration of certain influences that were brought
to bear upon them in high quarters. This is the
tenth or twelfth marriage that Omar Pasha has con
tracted since he adjured Christianity.
A Useful Ornament on a House Top.
Voyagers across the Delaware, as well os pedes
trians in many of our streets, have of late been .sur
prised at the appearance of a windmill on a house
top. We have inquired into the meaning of this un
usual apparition, and find that it is indeed a regular
mill, used for grinding, arid is placed on the resi
dence of Mr. Webb, southeast corner of Front and
Queen streets. The wheel is twenty feet in diame
ter, with eight fans, and will grind from two to three
bushels per hour, while it may be stopped or set in ;
motion even by a child. — Phil. Inq.

great natural defects, the one being an inability to ;

“What a queer pronunciation your uncle has,” ob
served someone to a nephew of Briggs. “Ah, yes,”
replied the graceless youth, “it is impossible to get
a V out of him !”
A late exchange says that the ladies of Au
rora, Illinois, in consideration of this being Leap
year, have, without the shadow of a dissentient voice,
passed the following resolution ;
“Resolved, that if we, the young ladies of Aurora
don’t get married this year, somebody will be to

ggf The best conclusive reas on for an effect that
we over remember to have heard, writes a western
correspondent, was given by a “one idea” Dutch
man, in reply to a friend who remarked, “Why,

“1 know de reasons for dat; mine rnoder was a wo

truth too,) that-‘Hvoimm arc never so amiable as

S=iF“The man of letters, when compared with one
that is illiterate, exhibits nearly the same contrast
as that whiph exists between a blind man and one
that can see; and if we consider how much litera
ture enlarges the mind, arid how much it multiplies,
adjusts, rectifies and arranges the ideas, it may well
be reckoned equivalent, to an additional sense. It
affords pleasures which wealth cannot procure, and
which poverty cannot entirely takeaway.

Dyspepsia Can be Cured.
From R. P. Stow , Esq., Assistant Clerk U. S. Rouse
of Representatives.
Washington, D. C., June 15.
Dr. Geo. B. Green—Dear Sir : I feel it a pleasure
to make known to you and the public, the surprising
effects of the Oxygenated Bitters, in relieving me
from that most discouraging disorder, Dyspepsia, i
hayg been afflicted for about seventeen years with
the usual attendant symptoms, viz : constipation of
the bowels, headache, pain in the chest, flatulence,
acidity ot the stomach, and severe nausea; and most
of the time I was extremely bilious. 1 have used va
aious remedies, have been strict in my diet, but all
to no good purpose. Hearing of the Oxygenated
Bitters, I procured some; have used four bottles,
and find the bad symptoms all removed, and myself
once more in the enjoyment of health. None but
the dyspeptic sufferer, who has felt all the horrors
of the disease, can at all appreciate the value of the
medicine. Respectfully yours,

Davis 5 Pain Killer.
Read the Certificate of a Regular Practitioner.
This may certify that l have used Perry Davis’
Vegetable Pain Killer in numerous cases, and believe
it to be a very valuable medicine. 1 have prescribed
it extensively in bowel complaint, (particularly for
children,) and it is in my opinion superior to any
preparation 1 have ever used for the relief of those
diseases. When given to children, I have always
combined it with the syrup of gum arabic, say ten
drops to a toaspoonfnl of the syrup, well mixed.—
Others have mixed it with milk and molasses, equal
parts. A. Hunting, M. D.
Perry Davis’ Pain Killer, as an internal remedy,
has no equal. In cases of Cholic, Summer Com
plaint, Dyspepsia, Dysentery and Asthma, it will
cure in one night, by taking it internally, and bath
ing with it freely. It is the ’nest Liniment in Ameri
ca. Its action is like magic, when externally ap
plied to lard sores, burns, scalds and sprains. Fur
the sock-headache and toothache, don't fail to try it.
In short, it is a Pain Killer.

lihlcs Remedies for Salt Rheum. Edward Jacks m,
of Galveston, Texas, suffered unceasingly for sou.
years with salt rheum, so bad was he that for fourm
five months at a time, he was compelled to keep n
his bed, and the doctors told him candidly that b
need never again expect to be well. Finding Un
to be the case he dismissed them, and immediat* 1
put himself under a course of Holloway’s Ointnien
and Pills, these flue remedies soon made such m
improvement in him that he was enabled to resum
his occupation, and by continuing them for a shoi
time, he was restored to the blessings of health
which he has enjoyed ever since.
I>r. Herron having long received a liberal pn -
ronage from his numerous friends throughout tin
community, together with various calls lrom a di
tance, begs leave to tender his thanks to all who.,
it may concern; wishing them to remember that in
continues at his old stand, near Penfield.
Having associated with him D. 11. Herron, in tbs
practice of Medicine, in its various branches, is no.,
more fully prepared to attend to chronic cases at a
distance, upon the same liberal terms that he has
done for several years, namely : any person who be
ing afflicted w ith any form of disease, that will writ*
out their symptoms, and inclose therewith five dol
lars, and send the same to our address, w ill receive in
return, medicine and directions to suit their case, fm
one month. Many persons nave been treated an
cured upon this plan, with a great saving to the at
dieted; some of them living from 50 to over 10’
miles, numbers of whom we have never seen, whih
we have had the consolation of meeting others after
their convalescence.
The undersigned has been closely engaged in th<
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. D. HERRON, M. D.
Penfield, Greene county, Ga., April 2d, 1856.
N. B.—Almost every person wishing to apply for
our remedies can have their symptoms written out
by making application to their family Physician.
