physicians that his death must have been caus ed by fright. His reason, as alleged by himself, for exhuming so many bodies was to obtain oil from them, which every physician needed. Be sides taking up the children, we learn that he had taken up a young woian. After securing the oil, he was in the habit of burning the flesh and bones, and Gen. Means was shown where the ashes of his children were, and, upon ex amination, some teeth and a part of the skull was found. Five persons are implicated, and a man by the name of Bogus, a shoemaker, was implicated in this horrid affair, and he made his way into South Carolina, but was enticed back, when he was arrested in Charlotte, and for want of security was committed to jail. Since the above was in type, we learn that only two or three bodies were taken up in Con cord, but Nugent stated he had taken up some fourteen at another place.-Charlotte Whig, 12th inst. TE PowER OF A CoME.-The Louisville Journal disposes of the comet question in the following summary manner : We see that some people appear to be still afraid of the comet. There is no more likeli hood of the comets hitting the earth than there is of the " old cow's jumping over the moon," and even if it were to do so, no harm could possibly be done. A good sized ram could butt fifty times as hard as the biggest comet in the Universe. No TAXES.-Lawrenceburg, Indiana, is a " favorite spot." They go without taxes there. The city government has resolved not to impose taxes this year. Reason why; no use for the money! OB IT U A RY DIED, in Augusta, Ga., on the 1st inst., Mr. BRITTON MIMS, aged forty-two years.

Ist, and has now been in use long enough to prove, at least. that it is no humbug. The advantages which are claimed for this, over the common plow stock, are these: 1st. Its simpli city and durability. 2d. Its adjustable arrangement by which the beam is raised or lowered at pleasure w'ithout changing the. depth of the plow or the height of the handles. 3.1. The plow can be set any depth without changing the height of the beam or handles. 4. The handles can be raised or low ered at pleasure, without changing the.height of the beam, or depth of the plow. 5. It is well adapted to all soils, and to all manner of farming, at all seasons. As a proof of what 1 have said above, I need only refer those who have not seen the plow, to the following names, which stand as high on the Agri eultitral lists of Georgia, (iny native State) as any others; and also to those of the adjoining States of South Carolina and Alabama: Hon. M. A. CooPERn, Etowah, Ga; lion. Titos. STocus, Greensboro, Ga.; Dr. 1. S. WjrrrEN, Mt. Zion, Ga.; Col. J. V. Joes, Birdsville, Ga.; MILEs L. GREax, Esq., Ft. Valley, Ga.; D. REDMOND, A ugusta, Ga ; Dr. N. B. CLOUD, NMontgoanery, Ala; Dr. B. W. LAWTON, Erwinton, S. C.; Col. A. G. SuMMER, Columbia, S. C. The Right to make and use this Plow Stock for Plantations, Shops, Counties or States, can be had by addresing the undersigned at Ogeeclee, Seur ven County, Ga. G. W. COOPER. W Mr. F. M.
