Houses were un? roofed, trees uprooted, and goods In stores damaged , by water. Four steamboats were sank or driven ashore ; the dry-dock was forced from;Its moorings and driven several miles ap the river.' The damage ls estimated at about two hundred thousand dollars. No lives were lost so (ar aa yet known. -The assistant treasurer at New York bas been Instructed to sell one million bf gold on each Wednesday during the month of August, ?Od to purchaseonemlUion of bonds on each alternate Thursday, commencing Auguut 4tb, and two million ob each alternate Thursday, commencing August nth. The sales of gold during the month will thus, amount to five millions, and the amount of bonds purchased to six millions. s -Speaking of the "war maps,*' so-called, which many newspapers are now printing, and which appear to be Chinese puzzles, a contemporary says: "They are very easily made. A pistol is first charged with powder, then a small bottle of Ink placed on this charge, and ifired against a piece of box-wood; the block ls then handed to the artist, who chips away all the surface not covered with ink producing a first-class newspaper war map." -A strange story comes to us frein Orange ?County. There ls a woman there who claims to have been married to Jeter Phillipa dining the war, and who bas now a child some five or six years of . age, which she says is the fruit of ?huir union. Thc reason assigned by her for not setting np a claim to her truant husband sooner 1B that she did not know where, he was ?until he-waa arrested for the murder commit? ted on Drinker's farm, and that she did not care, to have anything to do with him after? ward?. . Her story is corroborated by the testi jnonjr and belief of the neighborhood. -Hydrophobia Is the terror of St. Louis just now, and justly, if such cases as occurred there the other day are going to be common. A German boy, about sixteen years of age, was taken to the City Hospital in a fearful state. Some four weeks ago he slept in the yard, on Aoconul of the beat, and there was in the same jardalarge dog, which has aince died of rabies. This dog did not bite the boy, but probably licked his hand, on which was a fresh cut, tl Brheace the virus waa conveyed to the blood, ti In about three weeks the boy was taken with the symptoms of the dread disease. His eyes globed luminous with ~wlld light, as if they would start fro m> the lr sockets. He panted sharp and quick like a dog suffering from heat, and frequent spasms visited him, often pro? duced and always aggravated by the sight of water, of which he had a painful dread. At times paroxysms of violence seized him, and rendered it dangerous to approach him unless he was forcibly restrained. He snarled and snapped like a dog, while froth gathered on his lips and he bared his teeth like au animal. The day alter his removal to the hospital he died. -Lady Franklin-one of the noblest women of modern times, noble because of a long life spent In a heroic effort to complete a task, the selection and uuz nerving pursuit ot which has made her name beloved among the admirers of true womanhood the wide world over-arrived in Cincinnati on Saturday last, after a weary journey from the Pa? cific slope, to thank Captain Hall, who is pre? paring to again visit the Arctic regions, for his efforts In searching for the remains of Sir John Franklin in the lauds ot eternal cold. The lady is now nearly eighty, and her hair has long since silvered, but she is upright and of a strong constitution, the result of an active, nobly-spent life. She no longer hopes, of course, to meet SI? John in this world, the ad? vanced age to which he would have attained forbidding that dream to a heart never so fond and hopelul, but lt may be that ere her long life closes, she may read the heart history of her lord and his last message, written as the dark, cold world was closing in upon him, shutting out forever visions that till then comforted him, of wife and home, of friends and merry England. On the day after her arrival, Lady F. was waited upon by the officers of the city, of the Chamber of Commerce and by citizens generally, all of whom, despite her advanced age, she received with an ease that marked her as a lady born. Self-Reform. The magnates of the Robbing Ring, from Senator "Daddy" Cain down, have not at? tempted to deny that thc present State ad? ministration is corrupt and unclean. They admit that the grievances of the people of the State have a substantial foundation in fact; and in public, whatever they may say in private, lament the embarrassment which the misdeeds of a few bad men have brought upon "the party." With gushing frankness they acknowledge the fault and propose the remedy, which ls, to let the Ring stand and re? form its own members. They propose, in other words, that the foulest contents of the public stables Bhall with a Presto l Change! be couverted into a bouncing big besom of Reform. This farcical idea might ease the consciences of the softer disciples of the Ring, but its hypocritical falsehood was ex? posed anti denounced, from the moment of its utterance, by the public press of the State. And in the same way that the Bing have been diligently engaged, for two years in digging their own graves, they are now, with unlooked for rapidity, proclaiming to the whole people the hollow insincerity of their pledge of Self-Reform. The Ring had it in their power to nomi? nate for Governor such men as Attorney General Chamberlain, or Auditor Thomlin son, or Secretary of State Cardozo. These men, although not above suspicion, tower, in moral height, far beyond the Ohio quack, who was elected in 1868. Or the Ring might have taken nearly any one of the humble freedmen who, to their own l038, lifted them to offices of honor and trust. Any change would have been accepted as an evidence that the Ring wanted to wear the appear? ance of .earnestness and plain dealing. But what did the Ring do ? After packing the State Convention so that a free choice, by the people, was impossible, they and their creature renominate Robert Kingston Scott, the incarnation of the myriad acts of inde ?ency and fraud of which the Ring are guil? ty. They unanimously renominate the man who has traded in the flesh and blood or his :olored supporters; who allowed the mur? ieren of Randolph to evade the condign punishment they deserved; who winks at the peculations of the Land Commission, if he loes not share in their profits; who tells the whole people that1 'Winchester rifle law" is Lhe only law for South Carolina; who, by the ibuse of the pardoning power, lets loose upon the community a legion of cutthroats, Ihieves and murderers; who told General rt'ade Hampton, two years ago, that he was 'tired of the negroes" aud "wished the State 'to go Democratic;'1 who, coming to South karolina a3 the owner, in Ohio, of a blind nare and a broken chaise, valued at lour .eeu dollars and seventy-live cents, is now vorlh, by his own confession, one hundred md thirty thousand dollars. This is the nan whom the Ring hold np to the public raze as the candidate who, if elected, will ;ure the rottenness, and punish the roguery, i >f which he is himself the most notorious j ipecimen and example. Is this, we ask, the i beginning of Self-Reform ? Can this patent i ^scrupulousness and tricker}' be overcome < )y the nomination of a mulatto for Lieuten- 1 int-Governor, so that an appeal to the in- 1 it in eta of race may secare for Scott and Ran- 1 ?er that vote which could not be obtained j >y Scott alone ? The juggling cheat is too >lain; and if the freedmen do not see it, and ] ict upon their knowledge, the faull will be { hat of the white people of the State. I And look at the organization of the State t Convention, which nominated the precious I lair. The chairman of the Committee on t Jrederitinls ! and the chairman of the Com aittee on Platform ! was B. F. Whittemore. Vho is this mau who decides upon the quuli ications of the delegates who nominate a ?overnor and Lieutenant-Governor ; who ' Iraws up the declaration of principles of ' vhat i3 falsely called the Republican party c ?f South Carolina ? A Radical Congress I oakes answer. The Uuited States House I ?f Representatives, after a full examination 1 i the evidence, adopted a resolution declar- 11 ag that B. F. Whittemore made appoint- d lents to Annapolis and West Point "in * 'violation of law;" that such oppointments rere "influenced by pecuuutryt considera- p 'tions;" that his conduct wa3 such as "to v ?show him unworthy of a seat in the House d 'of Representi lives, and is, therefore, con- d 'demned as conduct unworthy of the repre- . 'sen tatt ve of the people." To avoid an ig- Q ominious expulsion, Whittemore, with the p onnivur.ee of Governor Scott, resigned h;.3 n eat. Being re-elected he was refused hi3 eat. the majority being sustained in their li ction by the Northern Radic?l press, nearly Ithoat exception. Aud now, the New York Vi&uy, in a leading editorial, calls upon t ie law officers of the government to bring I lis offender to justi'..u. Open thc peniten- 1< tiary doors for him-it says-and let os have an ead of Whit temo re. This ''penitentiary bird" is^made-ly the Ring CoSpntion Fhe chair m an of its mo 31 important committee?, lathis the proaused Self-Reform T How can any one be surprised that delegations were arbitrarily rejected and admitted; that Sena? tor Sawyer and his colleagues were bundled, neck and crop, out of the convention; that Scott and Ransier were nominated unani? mously ! How can any one be surprised that the platform prepared by this miserable creature, pronounces the Ring administra? tion "wise, economical and honest," and is, in all its pretended statement of facts, a tis? sue of unblushing mendacity ! The Union Reform party makes no ap? peal to the passions or prejudices of the peo? ple. It takes up the official record of the Rin? administration, and condemns Robert King? ston Scott and his colleagues as corrupt pub? lic servants, as squanderers of the funds of the State; as men who, by their own ad? mission, have taxed the people beyond en? durance, have doubled the public debt, and brought a blush of shame to the cheek of every honest citizen. It ehow3 that the Ring have broken their every promise; they have, with the words yet warm upon their lips, broken their pledges of Self-Re- ? form. It bids the people survey the condi? tion of affairs, and answer whether they can live under such a government, and whether any other earthly event than the victory i the Union Reform party gives them any as? surance of lower taxes, equal justice, thor? ough security and better times ? And that victor}' of the Union Reform party can be won! Carpenter cannot win iL Butler can? not win it. Kershaw cannot win it. But the white people of the State can win it, they will. The sixty thousand white voters in South Carolina, if they will take the trouble, can carry with them enough of hon? est and independent colored men to elect Carpenter and Butler by ten thousand ma? jority. _ _ _ _ Conspicuously Inexact. In reply to an article exposing some of the many nefarious transactions of the Land Ring, Senator C. P. Leslie, ex-land com? missioner, addressed a letter to the Colum? bia Guardian, which was so explicit and categorical in its denials that the public were very much inclined to put faith in its statements, and accept it as the plain truth. But one story only stands good until the other is told, and the Barnwell Journal prints a letter, which, if its statements be correct, convicts Senator Leslie of making an assertion which, to say the least, i3 con? spicuously inexact The letter is anony? mous, but we assume, from its publication in the Journal, that it has a responsible author. To show plainly how flatly contra? dictor}' the two statements are, we print them side by side : SENATOR LESLIE*3|THE STATEMENT OF MEMBER OF THE BAR" IN THE BARNWELL JOURNAL. In Book V. V., pages 100-2-3, Register's of? fice, the following ?deeds are recorded: 6th day ot September, 1869, a tract of 330 acres of land, to C. P. Leslie, Land Commissioner of I the State of South Car-1 jolina, fpr one thousand ?three Hundred and ten dollars, ($1310,) from I. N. Teague, Probate Judge. 6th day of September, 1869. a tract of Ave i hundred and twelve acres of land, to C. P. Leslie, Land Commis? sioner of the State of | [South Carolina, for two thousand dollars. ($2000,) from W. A. Nerland, Clerk of | ?Court. On the margin ls the following note: These deeds were sent to C. P. Leslie on the 20th September, 1869. Mr. Leslie bid these tracts off at the sales in person, and sent the money by express to ?pay for them. We had hoped better things from Senator Leslie, but we begin to think that a South Carolina Radical cannot tell the truth -even by accident. They lie at a mark and hit it avery time. Shut Him Out, and Shut Him Up t STATEMENT IN THE COLUMBIA GUAR? DIAN. For the benefit ol all concerned, I wi3h to sav: 1. That I never bought a foot of land In South Carollua as Land Commissioner. 2. T h a t - I never had one dollar of the Land Commission money In my hands. - 3. The Advisory Board never bought one foot of ground on my recommendation 4. I never was Land Commissioner, only in name. 5. I never drew an order on the land funds. * * * I have got sick and tired of forever being assailed, and I aver the statements I have made to be the truth and offer them for what they are worth. Whittetnore's effrontery is duly appreciat? ed by the Northern Radicals. The New York Times (Republican) ha3 come to the con? clusion that the only way to shut him out of Congress is to shut him up in prison. It ?ays : "We have seldom encountered an exhibi? tion of greater impudence than that which las recently been made by ex-Congressman (Vhlttemore. From first to last he hos never lad tho faintest idea that he had committed iny offence either against law or propriety in selling the West Point cadetship. After being ;wlce ejected from his seat in Congress, he low very coolly proposes to seek another elec ;lon, with a /lew to becoming a member of j ,he Forty-second Congress. Fortunately, the aw provides that, upon conviction for the of lonce, which he admits be has committed, the )ffender shall be disqualified from holding any ?ederal office, besides being subject to other penalties. If Whlttemore is not satisfied with ;he punishment he has already received, by ill means let him have thc whole-fine, im? prisonment, and all-and let him be thus :ffectually shut out from Congress." Throwing the Blame on Cuffec. The white men of the Ring are getting , ?ery much ashamed of having had the sneak iValtteraore as'chief cook and bottle-washer ?f their State Convention, and are sending ( forth all sorta of excuses for the disgraceful (rocr.-uing. They are now trying to make he black man the scapegoat of Whitte- . note's sins. Witues3 the following special . lispatch from Washington (July 29) to the lew Yoik Evening Post, a Radical sheet: "It appears thal the cause of Whlttemore's rominence in the late Republican State Cou enlion of South Carolina was not the work of 1 elegates, the better class of whom were greet Hy j isgusted, but the positions to which he was as hrned, namely, chairman of the Committee on ( Iredentials and chairman o? the Committee n Resolutions, were by appointment of the residing officer, a negro and one of Whltte ?ore's strengest supporters." Put that i.t your pipe, "Colonel" R. B. El- ' ot, and smoke it ! THE statement, made in Radical circles, ' hat General M. C. Butler voted for the j ?Lek Code, is untrue, ai a reference to the ' ?gislative journals will show. A Chance for Corbin. Mr. District-Attorney Corbin has lately chosen to figure in the public prints as the self-constituted censor.of certain alleged de? linquencies of bis betters. Since the zeal of Corbin in behalf of official integrity is so abounding, it would, perhaps, be as well that he should inform the public why he neglects to do bis plain duty ia prosecuting the criminal Whlttemore, and bringing him to condign punishment. The New York Tribune, the leading organ of the party with wh ich Mr. Corbin claims to act, bas again and again called on bim to do his duty by sending Whittemore to the penitentiary. The New York Times and other prominent Republican journals, as well as a singularly united public opinion throughout the North, all echo the demand that summary justice be dealt unto the-shameless betrayer of the people's trust. What is Mr. District-At? torney Corbin going to do about it? Wolf: Wolf: Ecce iterum Crispimis. The Washington correspondent of the New York Evening Post telegraphs on Friday last: "Senator Sprague has just completed bis "arrangements for erecting an extensive "manufacturing establishment at Columbia, 1 'South Carolina. He has lately inspected "the whele ground himself, and the work on "the canal leased from the State for a water "power, will go forward-at once." We hope so. THE Robbing Ring Bay that, at the last election in this State, "Democrats were murdering Republicans by the score. " And just af this'time Governor Scott told Gene? ral Wade Hampton that he was tired of the negroes "and wanted the State to go Demo? cratic." According, then, to the statement of the Ring, the Governor of the State wanted to give its control to tbe very men who were murdering bis Radical supporters by the score. How is this, Mr. Governor? OUR Columbia correspondent give3 a lively description of the feeling in Radical circles in regard to the Ring nominations for Congress. ttJariiB.

Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever, Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Bilious Fever, Dumb Ague, and the long train of disorders following these when neglected. SWEET QUININE Is made solely from Peruvian Bark (so ls Bitter Quinine,) thefore lt ls of vegetable origin, and not a mineral poison, but, on the contrary, is proved to be one of the elements found In the blood of all healthy persons.
