The same night Mr. HOSEA WILSON'S barn was burnt, al his borne place, as detailed in our last Issue, attempt was made, hy tho same band of armed and undioguised ruffians, to burn his other place, situated about ono milo and a quarter from Lynchburg depot. This place is occupied and managed by BRYANT IV H IO HT, a worthy and in? dustrious colored man. Wniaur was aroused by lomo noise on the premises, about the time the Incendiaries wero in the act of applying the toroh, and running out, averted the destruction of tbe fruits of bis year of luhor. Ile had an Interest of one bal fin the crop that had been housed, and we learn, bad managed the farm faithfully and successfully. As before said, he is a worthy and industrious colored man, of conservative viows and feelings, but had done nothing to excite ?gainst bim the devilish spirit which sought the perpetration of so fiendish an outnage. Klore Terrible Outrages. We announce, with more than ordinary fool? ing, that tho barn and stables of Mrs. A. A. Mc KAIN, with her wbolo crop of corn, poas, rice, fodder, Ac., were dostroyod by incendiaries, on Saturday night last. Also all the provisions ?>ado the present year by Mr. DKAM, and one or tffo other white tenants of her place, stowed in .he .'.une buildings, wore bur nt d. All the build '"gi within tho enclosure of the barn yard were med to tho ground. A few nights previous to the burning, Ibo house occupied by Mr. DEAN and his family was fired into with a .double-barrel pieco, the shot penetrating through to the inside. On the night tbe burning, tho disobarge of one gun, appa "tly at the barn and stables,aroused Mr. DEAN norn his bed, and going out be found the flames already doing the work of destruetion. Ho was i on ly to remove the horses and mules from 'be liable.

Snow, Sleet, If all and Balsa. The unusual phenomenon of Snow, Sleet, Bail and Kain, all falling from th? tam? cloud, waa experienced at Sumter on Wednesday last, about mid.day. Tho South eastern sky, in a section reaching tip to the zenith and extending nearly to the bordon, WM quickly overoast with cloud, of' angry black and bluish tint, which, banging low and moving rapidly, resembled ti so mew h at threat? ening "storm rcud." On it came, sweeping along in majestic volume, and overspreading thc lenltb, but Instead of bearing violence, fury and de? struction On Ha bosom, hanging ita dark curtain quietly and peacefully over us, and letting - fall, in gen tlo drops, sn ow, sleet, bail and rain. And then aeon Ibe bright sunshine agata burst upen ns. [Wo could not help thinking it emblematic af theoxperlence of hum?? ]<fs. Sou,mimos darkened by clouds, the approach ofwhlob fit! us with ap? prehension-tbcyjscem burdened with angry com plioationa and threaten to overwhelm us. But the God that ride? on ine storm cloud, also gov? erns here, and standing unmoved in the path of oonsoious integrity, though they let fall upon ns, in various forms, the cold charities of earth, we yet pass, safely and quietly through, and the sun? light of hope again gilds our pathway.] Another remarl able featnre of this phenome? non was that tho sloet fell in the Northern por? tion of the town, the snow in the middle and the hail in the Southern part, while a very gentle shower of rain succeeded them all. And all this occurred, too, previous to tho killing frost, whiob came one or two days after. Concerta at Florene?.

Tho stomach and the brain are too intimately allied tor the one to suffer without the other, so that dyspepsia and despond? ency are inseparable. It nay be added, too, that irritation of tho stomach is almost invariably ac? companied by irnitition of tho temper. The invigorating and tranquilizing operation or Hosteller's Bitters is most powerfully devel? oped in cases of indigestion. The first effect of this agreeable tonto Ts comforting and encourag? ing. A mild glow pervades the sys tom, tho chronio uneasiness In the region of tho stomach is lessoned, oud tho nervous restlessness which characterizes the disease is abated. This im? provement is not transient. It is not succeeded by tho return of the old Ky mp tons with superad dod force, as is always tho cuse when unmvdica tod stimulants are given for the complaint. Each dose seems to impart a permanent accession of healthful invigoration. But this is not all. Tho aperient and antibillious properties of tho preparation are scarcely secondary in importance lo its tonio virtues. If there is au overflow of bile the secretion is soon brought within proper limiu, and if the bileary orgau ia inert and tor? pid lt is toned and regulated. The effect upon he discharging orgaus is equally salutary, and in cases ot constipation the catharlio action is jost sufficient to produce tho desirod result grad? ually and without pain. The Bitters also pro moto healthy evaporation from tho surface which is particularly desirable at this season when sud den spoils of raw, unploasant weather are apt to cheok the natural perspiration and produco conjestion of the liver, coughs, and colds.
