l)r. Thomas O. Summers writing from 1
| Tunkaloosa, Ala., to the Christian Atlvo {
fr.It, says : The people are making terri- \
ble coinpl tints about the extortion of plan
ters. They say that if this progresses
much further, the Confederacy is ruined.
Many of the soldiers say they hate the
extortionate planters more than they do
the Yankees It is certain they are do j
ing as much harm as the Yankees, Ml
I they are cutting the very sinews of tb?
country. Cannot the Covernrnent take
this matter in hand, and that before the

phyaician of distinguished alulity j .
gives us the following facs concerning j .
this much dreaded disease :
1st. In its nature, it is not a local af j (j
fection, as is usually supposed, but con- *
mum uiiki,^ pervaumg me I'loou 01 ine 1 ^
whole system before *U makes it* appear- J
ance in Nity part. It is of a nature kin I :(
J red to erysipelas, and though epidemical
is not strictly speaking infectious. < |,
2d. Its most manifest symptoms is a I
false membrane, of a white color which |
forms upon and around the tonsils, near #
the palate, and which thickens and ex I p
lends, unless checked, until the patient I
dies from suffocation. This false litem i
brane is, however, not contined to the j
throat, hut may sometimes be seen upon j (|
the liand or arm,or any other place where j j.
the skin has been removed.
3d. Among the cautions to he cbssrv- |
ed are the following: Avoid ail inedi- i ^
cines and modes ol treatment which shall : tj
cAiinmi mo puru^iii| mm nr itn'iui ii"l j
t> njure tli*4 skin by leisters or counter- j
irritants, part cularly in the neighborhood
of the throat. ^

e.o. Give fieely eggnog, m ulfc of g?. d i

A Pleasant Little Story
The following pleasant little story is

scarcely find room to spread her cnno j

vacant *eat.
After a few minutes there came in a
poor woman, who deposited a basket of 1
clothes on a platform, and held in her
arm a child, while a little girl hung to !
her dress. Hhe looked tired and wearv, '
hut there wan no vacant seat ; to be sure .
Charlotte, might have condensed her
flounces, but she did not. Iteaide her, j
however, sat a lovely and elegant yoting
woman, who seemed trying, by moving I
down close lo others, to make space .
enough for the atranger between herself
and Miss D . At last she auc
ceeded, and with the sweetest blush I
ever saw, she invited '.he poor, burdened '
female to be sealed. Char olle I) ,
drew her drapery around Iter Mid b ushed J

The unknown lady drew the little giil J
upon her lap, and wrapped her velvet , \
mantle around her nmall, half-clad form , f
and put her mull' over the half Irozen lit- I J

Bo great was the crowd that I alot.e (

the keen wind from the door blew upon-, I
ita unprotected neck. 1 raw the young J
leclv I'lietly ditw from under her ehawj , V
y
little crimson, wooler. shawl, which she
oflly put on the shoulders of the little
ne. The tool her looked on with con* j
used wonder. After a short time she |
ose to leave the car, and would ha\e
noveil the shaw., t>ut the unknown pent
y whispered, "No, keep it for her ? The
romaii did not answer; the conductor
itnried her out, but her eyes swam in
a >rs, w hich no one saw hut me. I noticed I
er as she descended to a basement, and I
tastily marked the house
Soon after, iny unknown also arose to
epnrt. 1 was in depair, for I wanted to
