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

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

wards of ten thousand dollars in money

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.

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.

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

smoothed, and the sullen look is gilded
with a smile and the sour tone is sud

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.

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.
Price of tho Pulmonlc 8yrup and Sea-weed Tonia
ILiO a bottle, or 57.60 a half dozen. Mandrake Pills
IS cents a box. For sale by aU druggists and dealers.'

It has been used by many of the moemin.ent Planters in the South, and
In Every Single Instance it ls Given Entire Satisfaction,
On COTTON its effects have been pacularly. marked." It. js no rare thin?
for WHANN'S PHOSPHATE to incise the yield from ONE HUNDRED
TO TWO HUNDRED PER CENT, even more !
Mr. Geo. C. Dixon, an eminent plan' of Cameron, Ga, in a letter to the
Banner ? Flanier, says that in an exriment with seven leading Superphos
phates and Guanos, the WHANN'S jved itself the best of all those tried
paying a net profit at the low market ri of $20,90 per acre of Cotton. A copv
