deed painful to look upon the wreck of all that adorns
the character and life of woman, and that, too, in
the bright morning of their existence, e’er the sun,
that rose upon a brighter day, had reached its meri
dian height. On tne threshold rs their lives, no
doubt, in common with others, there bloomed the
beautiful flowers of Eden, and about the cradle of
their 3’oung existence, the birds- of Paradise sang
their matin hymns. But all that is good of Life is
mixed with evil—there was a serpent in the bower
whose trail was upon every flower—and its syren

Atlanta, Sept. 10, 1856. j
Brother Seats —The Grand Lodge Knights of Jer
icho, for this State, met in this city on yesterday, at
10 o’clock, A. M., in the Hall of Atlanta Lodge, No.
1, and after having transacted the most important
bush ess for which they convened, the meeting ad
journed at 0 o’clock in the evening to meet again in
this city on the 3d Tuesday in September, 1857.
Th re was a very large attendance, considering
the high state of Politics now raging in the public
mind. One of the resolutions passed at this meet
ing is as follows:
Resolved , That the Subordinate Lodges be re
minded that one of the great objects of our organiza
tion is to promote the cause of Temperance by moral
suasion, therefore no party politics should ever find
a place in the deliberations of the Lodge ; and also
that the making or using of new Sweet Cider is not
a violation of the obligation of a Knight of Jericho,
because it will not intoxicate.
And the following resolution making your paper
(the Crusader) the organ of the Grand Lodge, was
also passed, viz:
Resolved, That we do adopt the Temperance Cru
sader us the Organ of this body, and recommend it
to the patronage of the friends of Temperance every
where.

No Family should bo without them.
We speak of M’Lane’s Liver Pills, prepared by
Fleming Bros., Pittsburg, Pa., which have become ]
an indispensibio Family Medicine. The frightful
symptoms which arise from a diseased Liver fnani
eor less, in every family; dys
pepsia, sirk headache, obstruction of the menses,
ague and fever, pains in the side, with dry, hacking
cough, arc all the results of hepatic derangement—
and for these Dr. M’Lane’s Pills are a sovereign rem
edy. They have never been known to fail, and they
should be kept at all times by families.
Directions.— Take two or three going to bed, ev
ery second or third night. ii they do not purge two
or three times by next morning, take one or two
more. A slight breakfast should invariably follow
their use.
The Liver Pills may also be used where purging
is simply necessary. As an anti-bilious purgative
they are inferior to none. And in doses of two or
three, they give astonishing relief to sick headache ;
and in slight derangements of the stomach.
Purchasers will he careful to ask for Dr. M’-
Lane’s Celebrated Liver Pills, manufactured by
Fleming Bros, of Pittsburg, Pa. All other Vermi
fuge in comparison are worthless. Dr. M’Lane’s
genuine Vermifuge, also his celebrated Liver Pills,
can now be bad at all the respectable drug stores. —

Oxygenated Bitters:
Belchertown, March 10. —Dr. Green:—l take
great pleasure in informing you of the resuifsof the
Oxygenated Bitters you had the kindness to send
me. Fi r some twenty years I had suffered with
Humoral Asthma, I was compelled to sit up ono
third of the nights, without going to bed at all: and
the rest of the time my sleep was interrupted by vi
mghing, and great difficulty in breath-
mg. In all my attendance upon our courts, I never
vent to i l in Northampton in twenty years, but
twice, and limn was compelled to get lip. Now I lie
in bed without difficulty, and sleep profoundly. I
took your medicine according to directions. The
violent sym. totes immediately abated, and perse
verance in the use of the remedy has removed all its
troublesome consequences. The value of such a
remedy is incalculable.

Bile of a Rattlesnake cured in Five Minutes.
‘I 8. Perry Davis and Son —Gents:—A mer
chant of Kinnoens, in this State, informs me that re
cently one of his sons was severely bitten on the leg
hv a rattlesnake, from the effects of which he suffer
ed most dreadfully. The family chancing to have
some of Perry Davis’ Pain Killer in the house imme
diately commenced bathing the bitten place, without
kno.ving whether it would or not afford the least re
lief, but surprising as it may seem, the poison was
soon observed to exude from the wound, and in five
or t'-n minutes the young man fell asleep, entirely
free from pain, or any effect from the bite, except
the flesh wound, which healed very soon. By giv
ing publicity to this fact in your pamphlet designed
for southern and western distribution, and such
countries as poisonous reptiles more or less abound,
it might serve the cause of humanity, and be the
means of supplying an article, the want of which lias
long been experienced.

COMMERCIAL.
Augusta, Sept. 10.—Cotton—The quantity com
ing to market continues small, and meets with a
ready sale at firm prices. Some of the storm Cot
ton commands from 8 1-2 to 10 cents, according to
its condition and quality. Strictly Good Middling
and Middling Fair, readily commands 11 1-4 cents.
The staple and quality of the new Cotton coming in
does not compare favorably with the Cotton of last
year’s growth; and the indications are that the ex
tent of the present crop will fall several hundred
thousand bales below that of 1855.
Charleston, Sept. 15.—Cotton—This article has
attracted some attention since our roport of the 12th
inst., but the transactions have been light in conse
quence of the limited supply on sale. The sales are
reported at about 500 bales, at prices ranging from
10 to 12 cents.

Phi-Gamma Hall, (
Oxford, Ga., Aug. 30, 1856. f
Died, in Columbus, Ga., on the 6th of August,
Daniel McDougald Peabody, a student of Emory
College.
At a regular meeting of the Phi-Gamma Society,
cf which he was a member, the following preamble
and resolutions were adopted:
Again the afflictive hand of Providence has visit
ed us, in the death of one of our honored members.
The short space of a year had not elapsed since we
were called (o mourn the death of one of our body.
It has plucked from among us another of the orna
ments cf our Society, and again is our beautiful ban
ner lo be hung in the black drapery of mourning.—
Our hearts feel sad when we reflect that the fine
form and noble face of our beloved Peabody are no
more among us.
Truly are we reminded of the popular saying,
“Death lov s a shining mark.” Mr. Peabody was
loved and esteemed by class-mate and college-mate,
and in his death we feel that we have lost a valued
friend and associate. Let us, dear comrades, be re
minded that death is no respector of person. Let us
learn this lesson from the bright victim which it has
just smitten from our ranks.
Resolved, That feeling our loss, and as a tribute
of respect for our departed friend, our banner be
hung in mourning for the usual time.
Resolved, That in his death we have lost one of
our valued and promising members, and one whom
we esteemed highly as a friend and associate.
Resolved, That knowing the poignant grief which
this mark of Providence has indicted upon the be
reaved relatives, that we hereby tender them our j
most cordial sympathy, and sincerely condole with j
them in their sad bereavement.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent i
to the famity of the deceased, and also to the South
ern Christian Advocate, the Times & Sentinel and
Augusta Constitutionalist.

From the San Francisco Herald, August 4.
Died, at Callio, Peru, June 16, Col. Hamilton
Bonner, late of San Fran isco, aged 43 years, a na
tive of Hancock county, Ga. His disease was apo
plexy. Col. Bonner arrived in Callio but a few
weeks previous to his death, in the ship Flora Tem
ple, from San Francisco. Although his stay amongst
us was short, he had gathered him many friends.—
Ho was well cared for during his sickness, and re
ceived every attention which could possibly be be
stowed. But death had marked him for its victim,
and in the prime of life he has been taken from
among us. His remains were followed to their last |
resting place by the Masonic Lodge of Callio, the
foreigners residing in the city, and shipmasters in
port. The beautiful and impressive burial service of
the order, of which he was a member, was read over
his grave, and his friends with sad and heavy hearts,
left to his last repose one of whom it may be truly
said,

None named him but to praise.” J. S. S.

this disease. For nine months he was almost deaf
and blind with it, so severe was the attack, be con
sulted several of the doctors in the neighborhood,
but they did not do him any good, but to use his
own words, he was left alone to die. His good ge
nius, however, did not desert him, for a friend of
his brought him a couple of large boxes and pots of
Holloway’s Pills and Ointment, which he thankfully
accepted, and commenced using; the result was per
fectly miraculous, for in two weeks he was able to
I get up, and could see and hear well; at the expira
tion of a month, he was perfectly cured, and able to
resume his work.
