*n *l0P?mcn? of \n Fnnsual ffear?ciiT* Elopements are by no means unusual occurrences now-a-days, but one which occurred in Alleghany a few dayB since is so different in its character from the usual elopements that it can only be (.hissed among the extraordinary. The knowledge of the facts connected with . s tis-yet confined to a cm n >'.-.. 0f persons, ivill come out." : . ^marion we received, it :pp sometime since a young toan, hailing from Philadelphia, settled in Alleghany city, and finally married a young woman win resided in oue of the suburbs. The domestic relations of the Couple seemed to be of the most pl? is:tnt character, and tho husband, .nd industrious ns he was, sit ie? ' o br pi stj-?ri'j^. ?ri" tiip fithpr of the .. .-. .?.'. . ivis ;lO^ae.Qsp^ of con ! . ins. ami a n??idv.-ntof Phila delphia, paid a visit to his. son. He re gained a short time, and then returned to his home. , Before leaving, however, he congratulated his son upon the ex cellent choice he had made in his mat rimonial alliance, and expressed himself well pleased in every way with his daughter-in-law. Of course, the son; w -s considerably elated nver the matter and doubtless took the first opportunity to tell his wife of .the favorable impres sion she had made. Matters progressed smoothly and pleasantly, not a ripple occuring to. disturb the domestic tran-: quility. One evening last week the ; husband returned home and was very agr?eably surprised to meet his father, who had arrived from Philadelphia du ring; the afternoon. He extended a cordial welcome, and indulged in the idea that this second visit had been prompted solely by a desire on the part of the father to enjoy the pleasure which his home afforded. The father made no immediate ^ffort to undeceive the son as.to the real object of his visit, but the object was not long to remain un concealed. On Monday night, when the son came home, the wife in the most calm and deliberate manner, stated that she had a few wvrds to say to him. She com menced by assuring him that she had alway* found him to be a kind and true husband, and that she had not one com plaint to make against him. She had discovered, however, that she did not love him as well as she might, and that she had concluded to leave him. The surprise of the husband, when this ant incejQent was made, was over whelming; and when he had recovered sufficiently to be able to ask what had brought about this sudden change o? feeling and where she intended going, the wife, in the same calm, impertur bable mnnner as before, informed hin thar she had discovered r.hat she loved the father, and that she intended to gc wi i.b. him ! The son laughed at first, but when the father, who was present at the time, corroborated the statement he was thunder-struck. The father and wife did leave that night despite the watchfulness of the husband. Before leaving, the couple visited the house o! a sist r of the wife, and took a friendly leave. The husband traced them t?. that place and thence to the depot, bu? could not ascertain whether they wen e ist or \ve?t. He was so surprised a? the suddenness of the affair, and th? coolness and deliberation which charac terised the plan, that he seems to havt been unable to take any effective meas ures to prevent it3 success. Since the departure word has been sent east and west. It has -also been ascertained that the father converted all hi- available property in Phila delphia into cash, before leaving, and ii ?3 supposed that he has with him up wards of ten thousand dollars in money His wife and family in Philadelphi. knew nothing of hir operations unti receiving word from che deserted hus band, and then investigations mad. revealed the fact that he had dispos?e of the bulk of his property. He ha' still left a sufficient amount to keep th family from want. It would seem th?, the elopement was planned during the first visit, as circumstances have corn to light which indicate that if the hup band had made any determined effor. tn frustrate the designs, he would hav? been quieted effectually. The extraordinary character of th? affair, the strange infatuation of th old man, and the still more readiness o the wife to become a party to thi double wrong, makes the case of unu sual interest.-Newark Courier. COUTH CAROLINA STOCKS.-The Ne1 York Commercial and Financial Chroni cle of Saturday says : New South Carolinas have sold dow? to 59i@59i cents on the reports o threatened resistance to the collectioi of taxes in the State in consequence o the oppressive rates to which they hav? been raised. One of the rumors of th market, however, states that some o rh??se trocee lings in the State have bee? designedly organized for effect on th' prier; of bonds, and the Treasurer < Highland County, now in this city states that the taxes are coming in wei and are already three-quarters or seven eighths paid. AN EDGEFIELD MAN ROBBED.-Oi yesterday Mr. Simeon M:.Dean, wh' lives near Graniteville in Edgefiel county, South Carolina,,repor ed to th police that he had been robbed o twenty-five dollars on the evening prf vious.

IWESTY-SSVEN NEGROES DROWNED -The most melanc: oly and disastrou of all the dreadful effects of the sever, gale that passed over this portion o the country on Sunday, the 26th o: M ireh, which have yet reached us, i.; that of the swamping of two boats iri v iters in the neighborhood of Daw i.-Miid, one" containing 15 negroe; and the other 12, in all 27, every on* ..- whom were drowned. The boat ining 15 was owned bv Albi Sin gletun, of Hilton H^ad. The ownei of the other we did not learn. On Sunday last ll of the bodies washed ashore on Dawfuskie Island. The rest ??ave nor Leon seen as yet, but will probably bo thrown up by the waves on some po'int of land or other, if they do not drift ont to sea.-Savannah News. , The vast majority of the white citi zens of South Carolina do not contem plate, or desire, any armed hostility to the State government. They, therefore, do not fear the presence of United States troops. What is proposed to be done, in the nature of resistance, does not involve any violation of the laws, and can be accomplished as thoroughly in the midst of the soldiery as at a dis tance of a hundred- miles from their camps. Nor do the people fear martial law, if .that martial law is to rrlegate South Carolina to the position which she held before the completion of Re construction. What we "are battling against is the rule of an irresponsible i negro majority, who bar out the prop erty holders from all participation in the affairs of government ; who fill the State offices with ignorant and venal men ; who grow rich by taxing, to the tune of $4,000,000 in one year, the impoverished white citizens of the State. This is our trouble. And we believe that we express the sentiments of the majority of the people when we say tiaat, we had rather a thousand times be governed by the unprincipled Sickles or the sullen Canby, than by the block heads and knaves who, every session, hold high carnival in Columbia. It would be cheaper, for we should be spared the squandering and swindling which are now the order of the day. It would give us more liberty; for whites and olacks would'then be treated alike. The bayonet would puncture equally all men, whatever the color of their skin. Give us Canby, or Sickles, or Terry. ' One tyrant is better to be borne than a thousand ! We repeat, then, that all the "horse, foot and dragoons" of the United States army will not make South Car olina permanently tranquil, nor give stability to the government of the State. The property holders demand that they be represented in the Legislature, and in the Municipal councils, which make laws and levy taxes. They demand that the arming of one race for the oppression of the other be ended in fact as well as in name. They demand that only capable and honest men be ap pointed to office. When these things are done-and sooner or later they must be done-the people will pay the taxes and sustain the government. Until then, the whole power of the property holding classes must be thrown . en bloc against the corrupt crew who have thrust South Carolina deep down in the slough of poverty and despair.-Char leston News. Cultivate Politeness of manner* It is incumbent^upon every one to be courteous and respectful in his inter course with neighbors, acquaintances, or with the public generally. To infe riors, speak kindly and considerately, so as to relieve them from any feeling jf being beneath you in circumstances; to equals, be plain and unaffected' in manner ; and to superiors show becom ing respect, without, however, descend ing to subserviency and meanness. In short, act a manly, courteous and inof fensive part in all the situations of life in which you may be placed. Society has ordained certain modes of address, md certain exterior signs of respectful ness, which it behooves us to support and oersonally attend to the rules such as I ve have alluded to, the poorest man .rill be entitled to the character of a gentleman, and by inattention to them, rhe most wealthy individual will be essentially vulgar. Vulgarity signifies coarseness or indelicacy of manner, and is not necessarily associated with poverty or lowliness of condition. Thus an operative artisan may be a gentleman md worthy of our particular esteem j while an opulent merchant may be only a vulgar clown with whom it is impossi ble to' be on terms of friendly inter course. We say cultivate politeness of manner, by all means, for it is refined civility, and will spare both ourselves md others much unnecessary pain. THE TRUTH.-The case is very plainly stated by the New Orleans Picayune, ia an editorial upon the subject ot Gen. Jrant's message to Congress in reference .o the condition of affairs in the South. The Picayune says : The pretexts already alleged, and he occurrences which give color to hem, have been created by the new itate Governments which aliens and .agabonds have forced upon our people ?y negro* votes and Federal power. There is no notable disorder in any of ?ur States, which cannot be traced lirectly to the bad government for vhich the Federal authorities are imme liately and Northern voters indirectly vsponsible. Nor are these disorders my where of such a nature or so nume ous as to give the slightest occasion to resort to the monstrous and dangerous expedient of martial law as a remedy. Y Congress will hasten to restore our ocal government to the hands of our .wn inhabitants, even the ehadow.of a .ause fir complaint would disappear. There is a story going the rounds to he effect that tight laeing saves $2,000, J00 annually in board alone*. The state ment is a villainous and habitual lie. We know a girl that laces so tight that mr arm can go around her twice and lap .ver clear to the elbow, and you couldn't think, to look at her, that she :ould eat anything except soup, but she ias got an appetite like a cross-cut saw, nd she mows a swath at a table like a elf-raking reaper. CONTENTMENT.-Our most exalted feelings are not meant to be the common ood of daily life. Contentment is :iore satisfying than exhilaration ; and .ontentment means simply the sum of mall and quiet pleasures. We ought ?ot seek too high joys. *Wc may be >right without transfiguration. The even low of constant cheerfulness strength I ns; while great excitements, driving [ .8'with fierce spped, both wreck the hip and end often in expositions. If ve were just ready to break out of the oody with delight, I doubt not we should lisdain many things important to be lone. Low measures ot feeling are b.etter than ecstacies, for ordinary life. God sends His rain in gentle drops, or ilse flowers would be beaten to pieces. Uncle Sam had a neighbor who was in the habit of working on Sundays, out after a while he joined the church. One day he met the minister to whose church he belonged. " Well, uncle Sam," said he, " do you see any particular difference in Mr. P., since he joined the church ?" "Oh, yes," said uncle Sam, "a great difference." Befe "e, when he went out to mend his fence on Sunday, he car ried his axe on his shoulder, but now he carries it under his coat.

HOME COURTESIES.-The happiest household in the world is that in which courtesy is new every morning and fresh every evening, like the celestial benedictions. How many of us brethren and sisters, make home the rag-bag of ill-humors and caprices, and wretched moods of every kind, while we care fully hide them from the stranger ! When the guest arrives, we slide a chair over the rent in the carpet, and' slip a tidy over the worn edge of the 'sofa cushion, and lay a prettily-bound, book over the ink-stain upon the parlor-cloth and so at his coming thc flying hair is smoothed, and the sullen look is gilded with a smile and the sour tone is sud denly wonderfully sweet. WHEELER'S CAVALRY VS. KU KLUX. -Our old war comrade, Bill Wyatt, of the sixth Georgia cavalry, made a ten strike the other day. He captured three of the Ku* Klux that Gov. Bullock has been advertising for, carried them to Chatfcooga Courthouse, got them con victed and sentenced to the penitentia ry for seven years, and came down on Bullock for the prize money, $5,000 for the first, and $1,000 each for the bal ance-making $7,000 in all. Bullock paid up " like a little man," and Wyatt went home happy. This amount of money in Chattooga county, all at one time, will create a tremendous excite ment. The beauty of the whole affair is that these Ku Klux were common radical thieves, and were playing Ku Klux to cover their stealing opera tions.- Bully for Wheeler's cavalry. Griffin (Ga,) Star. Special Notices. CONSUMPTION. ITS CURE AND ITS PREVENTIVE. By J. H. ? CEE?CK, M. D. _ Many a human being bas passed away for whWe death there was DO other reason tl in tho neglect of known and Indisputably proven means of cure. Theme near and dear to family and friends are Bleeping the dreamless slumber Into which, had they calmly adopted DE. JOSEPH H. SCHENCK'S SEHFEE TBEA.TME??T, and availed themselves of his wonderfully effica cious medicines, they would not have fallen. Dr. Schenck has In bis own case proved that wherever sufficient vitality remains, that vltaUty, by his medicines and his directions for their use, ls quickened Into healthful vigor. In this statement there ls nothing presumptuous. To the faith of the invalid ls made no representation that ls nota thousand times substantiated by living and visible works. The theory of the cure by Dr. ?chenck's medicines ls as simple as lt is unfailing. Its philosophy requires no argument. It ls self-as suring, self-convincing. Thu Sea-weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the first two weapons with which the citadel of the malady is assailed. Two-thirds of the cases of con sumption originate In dyspepsia and a functionally disordered liver. With this condition thc bronchial tubes "sympathize" with the stomach. They re spond to the morbific action of toe river. Her? then comes the culminating result, and tho setting; in, with all Ita distressing symptoms of _ crov&tnnpTiosr. The Mandrake Pilla are composed of one of Na ture's noblest gifts-the PoJophlllum Peltatum. They possess all the blood-searching, alteraUve properties of calomel, but, unlike calomel, they "LEAVE KO STING BEHIND." The work of cure Is now beginning. The vitiated and mucous deposits In the bowels and In tho ali mentary canal are oj ec tod. The liver, like u clock, ls wound up. It arouses from its torpidity. The stomach acts responsively, and tbflttmtlent begins to feel that he ls getting, at last, A Sl'PPM OF ?OOO BLOOD. The 8ea-weed Tonic, in conjunction with the Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food. Chyllll cation 13 now progrcsslngwithout Its previous tor tures. Digestion becomes painless, and the cure is seen to be at hand. There is no more flatulence no exacerbation of the stomach. An appetite sets In. Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever yet given by an Indulgent father to suffering man. Schenck's Pulmonlc Syrup comes in to perform its functions and to hasten and complete the cure. It enters at once upon its work. Nature can not be cheated. It coUecta and ripens the Impaired and diseased portions of the lungs. In the form of gatherings, itpreparcs them for expectoration, and lo ! In a ven- short time tbo malady is vanquished, the rotten throne that lt occupied ls renovated auH made.new, and the paUent, In aU the dignity of re gained vigor, steps forth to enjoy the manhood or womanhood that was _ GIVEN PP AS I.OST. The second thing ls, the patients must stay In-a warm room until they get well ; It Is almost impos sible to prevent taking cold when the lungs are dis eased, but lt must be prevented or a cure can not bo effected. Vresh air and riding out. especially In this Bectlon of the country. In the fall and winter sea son, are all wrong. Physicians who recommend that course lose their patients, if their lungs are badly diseased: and yet, because they are in the house they must not ?lt down quiet : thev must walk about the room as much and as fast as the strength wUl bear, to get up a good circulation of blood. The Satienta must keep in good spirits-be determined ) get weU. This has a great deal to do with the appetite, and is the great point to gain. To despair of cure after such evidence of its pos sibility in the worst cases, and moral certainty in all others. Ls sinful. Dr. Schenck's personal state ment to the Faculty or his own cure was in these modest words: '. Many years ago I waa In the last stages of con sumption : confined to my bed, and at one time my physicians Uiougaithat I could not llveawoek; then, lUce a drowning man catching at htraws, I heard of and obtained the preparations whlnb I now offer to the public, and they mode a perfect cure of me. It seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate my whole system. They soon ripened the matter In my lungs, and I would spit up more than a pint of offen sive yellow matter every morning for a long time. "As soon os that began to subgde, my cough, fever, pains, and night-sweats all began to leave rae, and my appetite became so great that lt was with difllculty that I could keep from eating too much. I soon gained my strength, and have grown In flesh ever since. " I was weighed shortly after my recover}'." added the Doctor, "then looking like a mero skeleton ; my weight was only ninety-seven pounds; ray present weight Is two hundred and twenty-live (205) pounds, and for years I have enjoyed uninterrupted health." Dr. fechenck has discontinued his professional visits to New York and Boston. He or hts son. Dr. J. J I. Sch enck, Jr., still continue to see patients at their Office, No. 15 North Sixth Street, Philadelphia, every Saturday from 9 A.M. to 8 P.M. Those who wish a thoroi'jh examination with the Kcsplro meterwul be charged ?5. The Resplrometer declares the exact condition of the langs, and patients can readily learn whether they are curable or not. The directions for taking the medicines are adapt ed to tho Intelligence even of a child. FoUow these directions, and kind Nature win do the rest, exceptr . lng that In some cases the Mandrake Pills are to be taken in Increased doses ; the three medicines need no other accompaniments than the ample Instruc tions that accompany them: First create appetite Of returning health, hunger ls the most welcome symptom. When it comes, as It will come, let the despairing at onco be of good cheer. Good blood at once follows, the cough loosons. the night-sweat ls ?bated. Ina short time both of these morbid symp toms are gono forever. Dr. Rchenck's medicines aro constantly kept In tens of thousands of families. As a laxative or pur gative, the Mandrake Pills aro a standard pr?para tion; while the Pulmonlc Syrup, as a cure of coughs and colds, may bo regarded as a prophylncterlc against consumption in any of its forms.
