CHOtERA C3aw aa Fasu.r .s TeaAa. Dr. Post, who is represented as a high medical authority in New York, delivered a lecture re, cently at the Medical College in that .city. He claims that the cholera is curable as the tooth acbe. His method of t.reatmuent, as he explained it, is briefly as follows: The patient is first attacked by diarrh<aa, ac eonrpanied by extreme.lassitude. He should go instan\ly to bed, and remain perfectly quiet for forty-eight. ho~urs, taking at least fifteen grai.us of caldmel to 4rive the infection from the system. A fter this has ac.ed freely, a mild dose of lauda numn Fhould be given to soothe the patient and prevent further intestinal action. Ice should be applied to the spinal column. Dre. Post clains that this treatment has been applied in thou sandso.e ses, and never failed to result in the ontire anid rapid recovery of the patient. It is of the very first impoztance that the patient should niot- abandon the reclining posture, from the very .com mencement of the disease until the recovery. Alf the promnineat men in the city are engaging themselves in the study of '.he cholera,.not clin cally, of course, as there have been uo- cases yet in the city Th.atmi -----m E----- ng te n rraa 1-+ mail 4'om Enoland brinn the in THIE WEEKLY I1ERALD.

Several weeks ago the Christian Advocate and Weekly Record published the demise of Rev. J. E. Watson, which was noticed in the Herald. The announcement of his death was one of those strange errors that sometimes creep into the press. We are happy to learn that he is not dead. He lives-may he live long-'till the millennium comes, or truth overcomes error, and the mists are all cleared away. Quarterly Conference. This conference was held in the Methodist Church the 10th and 11th, and was happily pre sided over by the Rev. Sidi H. Browne, the pre siding Elder. Its deliberations were harmonious, and the report of the working of this Station, whose charge is confided to the Rev. J. W. Hum bert, gave evidence of christian growth and zeal, The revived condition of the Sunday School par ticularly calls for the expression of much gratifi cation, and the presiding elder leaves this branch of his vineyard with grateful feelings of praise and thanksgiving to the giver of all good. In about ten days he goes as a delegate to the gene ral conference, to take place in New Orleans. The G. & C. Railroad. Mr. Perrin, the president of this road informs us that he hopes to shorten-the distance by stage, in about ten days, some three miles. Every little makes a mickle, and we are heartily glad of this, but will be heartier in thanksgiving when the back line can be dispensed with. It will be some. time however, before -so ~desirable a con ummation will take place, the iron needed for the completion of the road is shipped from the . 0. road with great tard'mess, the timber also is hard to get at, and tab.or dioscuit to obtain and eep.

On Thursday morning last, some n4groes in a eld in Lexington dist., and not far from the ourt House, hearing an unusual noise, together rith the report of a pistol, repaired to the spot, nd there discovered a dead body, which was fterwards identified by Mr. John Hair, of Frog Level, then on his way to Columnbia, as that of apt. Chesley Herbert, of this District, a niost estimable chyistian gentleman.- The body was ery much mu.tilated, apparently from blows in fited with a club, while a-ball fired at the back f the head.had passed out near the upper lip. [ appear that on Sunday night, the 4th, Capt: IT. hd a horse stolen from him by a negro.. On &IOL day he sfArted in pursuit, and overtook the hief on Tuesday. On Thursday. morning while i his way back with the- negro, he was most bully murdered by him. - The negro has been ar ested and sent to Columbia for trial. Special Investigation. Capt. H. A. Shorey, 15th Maine 'Vol., in com any with Lieut. Ziegler,. arrived in town last reek, having been detailed, tby order of Gen. 3ick les, to-investigate the condition'- of -affairs in fewbery and Laurens Districts. Some serious harges have.been preferred against our people, a to the treatment of the Freed people, iin effect a follows: "That there are armed bandsin the listrictsa, who are harbored, anid paid by citizens f influence, for the avow'ed purpose of commit. 'ing outrages upon reed people, by murdering and flogging ; that these bands are systematiosily creened from the authorities,- and that DO one lares now to report the outrages .committed;. that in cases where persons have heretofore -tes ~ified against the perpetrators of these outrages, tbey have been compelled to leave the Districts, o escape the vengeance of the friends of the a(eed ; that murder and other outrages have een committed upon the Freed people for a price per heatd," etc. In case these reports are substantiated, (::pt. horey's instructions contemplates the removal o olum1.ia of all Freed people of the t wo Dis tricts who are rendered insecure by these out ages the expenses to-he paid by, au. assessment levied by the iiitary aitboties upi the citi tens of the two Distric~ts. We trust that our citisens will lend iAbe gentle en of the commissien their iofluence in investi-' ~ating these charges that the matter maybe set :led. And hope that an impartial and just%xami iation will prove many,if not all, of these reports ~readiy aggravated and witho ut foundation, THE (INIVERSITY APPo!NTMNT.-Last weeIk, ve spoke of that poinL in the law establishing the niversity of South Carolina, whieb entitles eaeh judieal district in the State to* one beneficiary a year in the said institution. These benefici ar'ies are to be chosen. by the legislators, or a nsferity of them, of the District ; and are enti, Ied to receive, without charge,, tuition, room rent, and use of library. Under this law, thirty oung men may be educated in part.- It is one of the du-tes~of legislators to ,eleet this bene fciary from their District. 4pplicatiensfor these State appointments must present themselves be omle the delegation for .examinatio; en" Thurday A TERRLEU TRAGED1Y AT SEA.-A rar's Cor respondent of the London "Star" gives the fol lowing account of a terrible tragedy at sea: Last October, a bark saied from Mazotlan for San Francisco. A freihbrig,'happened to come up with the bark, reairketi that she suddenly changed her course, aid made for the Mexican coast. The captain of the brig signaled to the bark, wleranpon all sai were set and the bark was run on shore. Theseaptain, sa.specting foul play, made for the coast, .On landing, he fonnd that the crew of the bark had ied to the mioun taineous district, lie instantly organized a battue, assisted by Indians, and meanwhile boarded the standed vessel. The deck was colored wih blood, and here and there were scattered pcrtions of human brains. The crew, on beiag "aptured, revealed the following tale: Eight meti fife women, and four children took their passige on the bark early in October. It became known on board that they possessed a cmnsideraje amount of gold and bank orders. Accordingly, the crew, consisting of three -banditti, a Greek and a.French . adventurer, forced the passengers' cabins in the dead of night, and assassinated the men without 1 'difficulty. Remain the iwomen. The crew must I have a1ittle amusement after their night's work,J They wait for daylight. The women are placed on deck with their backs to the poop. The crew fired at them as living targets. One woman im plores mercy-she is nA <r - confinement. "All the more fun !" cries the Greek. With bis dagger he cuts her in two, and, whirling the child into the sea, announces his intention of taking out a patent for his new discovery. The other two women are merely shot down. A litt'e girl of six lay concealed belhind a water cask. The Greek, grasping the child by the arm, twists her round his head and shies her irto the sea. Thr'e of thesi worthies hav'been arrested. Tir. SPRING TRAnF,-Our merchants in the in terior, about replenishing their stocks for the spring season, will perhaps be surprised to find on a visit to Charleston prices of all merchandize much lower here than those in New York or other Northern cities. This, too, exclusive of freight, insurance, internal revenue tax, wharf 6age, drayage, and the numereas other charges atteudant on orders and shipments from' the Ncrth. Our wholesale establishments, particu larly on Hayne and Meeting-streets, in the vi cinity of the Charleston Hotel, are now packed in every departm ent *Ith extensive assorted stock of the latest and most elegant styles of goods, selected by their partners or agents resi dent in New York, for the large direct importing houses in that city. The plan adopted by our wholesale merchants with regard to the frequent changes in the New York market, of having reg ular attendants on public sales, gives them supe rior advantages both in buying afn'd selling, to warrant the present liberal and remunerative dealing with their home patrons. Our country friends avoid toe the heavy eiponses involved in a Nort4hern trip and return home, and enjoy the additional - gratification ot contributing to the good work in the material restoration and .pros perity of the metropolis of the State, the pride of every Southern heart. Our merchants are ready to meet all demands upon them, and are san guine of a successful and prosperous spring busi nes. We feel assured their expectations will be fully realized. The advertising columns of the Courier will be found an excellent guide to stran gers visiting the chty on business.-ChAarleston Courier. THE SMALL Pox.--A gentleman who arrived in this city yesterday from a tour through the Southern Sta tes says'it is~ hardly possible to im agine the extent to which the-small pox prevails throughout the section. All the large cities are more infected. In some places the freedmen only are the victims, while in others the white pope lation are among the sufferers. Little .attintion is paid to discretion in medical treatment. Those who have the disease walk through. the sreets in the most indifferent and unconcerned manner. bio one bids them remain within doors. In two or three places through which hie passed one house in every three had the re4 symbol dis Splayed. Charleston. we all know, is -grievously' ammLtn with small poi. In i.ns mv~peui. non-~ ever, our friend assures us we are far better off than our neighbors in the Giulf States. There he had been accustomed to se' dozens of cases on the street every day ; here he meets three or' four. A gEvERE REacn.-The disgusting blasphemy of Mr. Sumner, in likening the typical negro to Him who was God pan the Cross, 'befohe the.Sen ate of a christian nation, was but imperfectif rebuked by Mr. Fessenden thus: Did the House, as charged by Mr. Sumner, place themselves in the situation of Pontius Pilate, with the negro for the Sariour of the . wor-ld, and the people of the United States for Blarr-abas? Why, sir, I expected him [Mr. Sumner] to go further, and in the next breath to say that what with the Constitinion of the United &ates and the Constitution o>f the States' the negro had1 been crucified between two thieves, anid that. now, by this proposed amendment, the stone had been rolled away froin the sepulchre, and he had sscended to 'sit on the throne of the Al- - mighty and judge the world. *l~~~ THE CHOLERA-Because little or nothing is said just at tFe'pre.sent time concerning the rava ges which have been muade by the cholera in for eign countries within the past tw-enty months, and the probabilities of its appearance at our own doors during the coming summer, it is no resecn. why we should abandon ourselves to a belief that we shall esca~ a visit from the dread ed scourge. Ths aiuthorities all 'over the coun - try cannot act too promptly in preparing for tha worst. It is true, we may-possibly glide through the summer without being attacked by the chol era, but, in the-opinion of me~dical scholars, pre-. viously affirmed an d still maintaine.d, we shall no be wholly free from the assaults of the -plague. The authorities of several Jarge cities hiave al ready 'takent measures bearing on this subject,1 and we may hope their ;-..ample will be fallowed by oBicials throaghout the country generally. EEREAnLE Faers.- The New Yomk TI es says -. This eountry did more to fe.ed Eurwpe dur-ingj the years 1862, '63 and'.&4, than in the .three years which i.nmediately preceded the late war. The quantity of wheat shipped in the niidst of the war was two and three-fourths times greater than before, while the amount of ham and side bacon w s increased eight times. Tbis is certaily1 a remna'kable exhibit, when it is remembered that, during these threyears of war, we had ani average of a miilion of men in the army; whose producing eapacity wa~s for the t,ime lost sto the country. A nation t&at can carry on the most stupendous war of modern times,.-'rosper mean while, and greatly increase its exports of proaiis ions, may well astonish {de-wise ones of Europe. There is no paralei to it ju th~e world's history. MAIMIuAN$ Foacie.-We have informationl from an officer lately in the service of the Emipe ro Maxiw;Ian~j, in Mexico, to the effeet that in Janxay his forde was, in round nuYabers, as fol lows: French, 30,000 ; Austrian, Belgi.an, Egy p tian, &c., 10,000; Mexican, 5,000; making a to tal effective force of- about 45,000 men. This force haa~190 field pieces, and includes' twelve regiments of .cava'ry. Ma xitrilian has on paper a native force of 30,000 men,-tmnder foreign of ficer, but this has proved entirely unavailable,1 for whenever the aittempt has been made to musa ter them,. they desert in euch numbers that it re gnires the services of all the reliable troops near the rendeg.vous' to watch the:u ( Washington 4Star, 2i4. Mr. Pallard writes: If General Graat has pow er tostop.the. iberty of speech in th.e press, he - also has the power to -.moazle .t-he freedom of~ speech in ConBress.

Those fond of baby's and baby houses, will re member that the chances are rapid'.y filling yp for that handsome "baby house" to be raffled by Mr. Bythewood. The house is beautifu4l-uc nished and can be seen at his sales room, in rear of Dr. Grierson's drug store, On a late short visit to Columbia we. called upon our old friend Dr. E. Sill, f.rmn-.Iy one of the largest and mo9t practical druggists in that city, butnow owing to the destructin of - that place, reduced to a much narrower line of busi ness. Hlis present surroundings are somewhat different in character to the past. We found him in the midst of seeds of all varieties and descrip tions, his only business at present, to which is given his whole time and energy, This is the only place we know of outside of Charleston, where anything like a general variety can be ob tained, and at such favorable prices, and recom mend the Doctor to seed buyers generally over the up oountry. Send in orders early which will be attended to faithfully. A FOWL AcT.-The facts have come to our knowledge that a killing took place yesterday in this town, but in such a quiet manner that out side of the immediate yard, in which the deed was perpetrated, nothing is known of it. Early on Monday morning flady visited, with her two little innocent children, the house of her relative. The usual salutations exchanged, a pleasant little chat took place andall seemed well, little did the risitor dream of the deed about to be - done and which was even then in contemplation. She was. left alone for a few moments. Her thoughts were in a pleasant train. But a moment before her two little prattlers were at her knee, the next she heard-how can wo proceed-tbe cry of oh, ma, the cook's cut its head off, Rushing to the spot, alas, she found it but too tr-ue, gtuttering on the ground lay the frame of the little pet chicken rooster. Wasn't it awful. - HAVE T-or sEEN IT.-There nmay be a few whe have not, and we therefore call attention to;; remarkable. ornamental feature which can be-seent without the aid of specs in the rear- of the Court ouse. - The '.iginal design may h-ave been the creation of a gallows, and such may still be the purpose of the architect, but as''t is suirmounted with a bell, we scarce know what to call it. It was designed by and erected under the super ision of our town marshal, Mr. Brig. Geni. Ed. Peterson to whom all the credit mrist;-attach. We suggest that it be removed immediately -40 the front-of the building as a ioi'e suitable place. The advantage of its resent position is 4nly that tetraviler~c~ai~see it as he leaves the cars, be fore lie arrives at the square or his hotel, but in die other place it will show to greater advantage. it all times, to all persons, and during court *es peeiily, will be a decided feature. An iron railin.g might be added as a prot.etion against uutilation and pencil scribbling. No-r A.RE nF..IT.-The reports lately so ir. iriously and extensively circnlated as to the lawlessness, &c., in this District met with a iared, denial on Monday last. A hiundred wit nesses will testify to the fact, that not a rehe& is left, yea not one, so-called. A sold cr in blue, ery much the worse for liquor, a-nd ini a c-on ition of remarkable blueness, with a'ralor highly ~ommenable threw down. the giuntlet to. "ny ......?-h of a rebel. who .fea disposed to ke it up, he could, whip any of them, the - big ~est and- the uglibst, had whacked 'em like h or four years, and could do it;? again." It was no doubt kindly meant and a favor intended, and t is surpijsiu.g that there -wasn't-a single rebel to. be found who could appreciate the~favor, Their iscipinie must either be better than ,that of the arrison, or they have altogether disappeared, 'or otherwise it seems hardly possible-with such d ressing and pointed invitation the gentlermin was not.accomodated. It is honed Gean. Sickles will make a note of this. A nooD P,.-If you wattt to whie awgy air die hour pleasantly, 'weknow of no bettei-~place o recommend you to than Mr. Z. Ig.
