Gulf Kallio ad. ' The negro was about being lynched al last accounts. -Le, Messager Franco-American, of New York, punishes a protest bearing 266 signa* cures of Alsatians and Lorrain ere, resident in New York, against the s?paration of their country from France. A number of the names - are unmistakably.German. -The Tienne lady, orchestra, under the . management, cf Mr. Fred. Bullman, will ap? pear for the first time in America, at Steinway . j flail. New York, September ll. The orchestra will consist of twenty-six young ladles, nnder the leadership of Mlle. Josephine Welnllcb. -Prince Gortschakoff has published a report of what passed between bim and the Evangeli? cal deputation .at Frederickshafen in July. After heorlog. the delegates, he .replied that their misson had the appearance ol interfer? ence In the .domestic affairs of Russia? and that Russia could not tolerate the shadow of . Intervention from whatever side lt came. The missionaries expressed their respectful regret and withdrew. -The druggists' war In Hew York contin" nee, and a lew ol the pharmaceutists stub? bornly refuse io go through, the examination prescribed by law. The community aud the newspapers were. forced by repeated drug murders to demand l?gislation to prevent the . recurrence of fatal mistakes, and now that . they have the law, all should stand by it. The board of examiners average about twenty-two . "druggiets passed per day, and this will Boon reduce the obstinate ones to a small minority. These might be brought to terms if the regu? larly licensed druggists under the law were required to display signs stating the fact, as no one. would patronize shops where they claim the. privilege of employing Ignorant clerks. . -The. Leavenworth Dally Times, Republi? can, contains a letter from Mr. Cassius M. Clay, ot Kentucky, to General William Lari? mer, of Kansas, lu which the eminent fitness ol Mr. Greeley for the Presidency ls strongly urged. If the latter ls nominated by the Re? publicans, Mr. Clay says, he will be trium? phantly elected, the North will secure her nighest interests, and the South will be coc , -tent- we shall "have peace." To this the Sichmond Whig responds with the hope that Mr. Greeley may be .the. candidate of the Re? publican party. That would insure u?, what? ever the result ol the election, a vast improve* ment on the present. Mr. Greeley is honest, and not mercenary, and he would give no countenance to thieves and vi'.lalm, carpet? baggers or others, who are now plundering the land. -A correspondent of the Providence Jour? nal ax te np ta tou-how the origin of the cant phrase "put a head on him." In 1863. he says, be was corporal ol the first relief on a certain cavalry picket, and in posting his men, heard from the coi p oral of the relief, then on poBt, a queer story, to the effect that the sentinel on one of the posts, which happened to be near an old grave, bad been horribly perturb? ed by the appearance before bim, in the dead hour ol nighr, of a man on horseback without a head. To Jones, the man whom the Jour? nals corporal correspondent was to station at this post, the tale was duly told, and then, adds the correspondent: "Look out for the man on horseback without any head on !" Jones was Just firing up his "briar wood" lor compauy, an-1 replied between whiffs: "Well, (puff,) If a man (puff, puff.) on horseback, (puff,) without any head OD, (puff,) comes round me, (puff, puff, puff,) III put a head on bim !" -A London, Ohio, telegram, ot the 15th in? stant, says : "To-day the Bufenburg poison case assumed a serious aspect. Having can? vassed the other relatives lor fonds to enable him to secure the counsel for the prosecution their feep, Dr. Saul Yandeventer, of Brown County, L.iuols, ihe nephew ol 'Old Buf, swore to an affidavit before Justice G. P. Crabb here this morning, and the latter at once Issued an order for Mrs. Colburn's ar? rest. Dr. Saul Yandeventer, In the affldivit, charges that Mrs. Culburn, on divers occa gions daring the twelve months prior to Sep? tember 26, 1867, (the date of 'Old Buf B death,) administered arsenic to her husband with intent to kill htm. Such is the charge made. Mrs. Colbarn being now enceinte, by arrangement between the counsel she wilt not be subjected to the shock of an arrest at her old farm, where she now is, but will sur? render herseli to JuBtice Crabb to-morrow, and give bonds in $25,000 to appear before the Justice for preliminary examination on Mon? day next. -The Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial ls casting his eye over the Vice-Preeidential field and notiDg the prominent figures therein. He ls disposed to concede the renomination of Grant, Iamf nt ing it the while, and .conflueB his attention tn the eligible candidates fer the second place on the ticket. The list ol names is a very long one, and is headed by two Cabinet officers, Creswell and Akerman. The Postmaster General is characterized as a most ambitious man on a very small capital. To obtain the coveted Vice-Presidency he is straining every nerve and using bis almost unlimited patron? age as advantageously as possible. He is vain enough lo suppose that he can unite the South and Border States, when the fact is that he could not carry even Maryland. The second aspirant in the Cabinet ls the Attorney-Gene? ral. A few obscure papers in the South, edit? ed by United States attorneys or marshals, have raised his name for the Vice-Presidency, and the pompous official is "beside himself with pride. He imagines that his "locality" is to be a sufficient reason for his selection, and that he is the only man in the South of any prominence In the Republican party. The correspondent contents himself with men? tioning these two, promising hereafter to "con? tinue the enumeration of candidates who are supported by somebody besides themselves. The Condition of the Suez Canal. The progress of the Suez Canal bas been watched with natural interest by the cotton growers o? Uie Southern States, who may now, with the first annual report before them, judge for themselves how far tbe great work is likely to affect them. This report, thongh quite as satisfaclo.'y as could have been expected, does not realize in any respect the expectations of enormous traffic upon which the estimates of the projectors of the enterprise were based. From the opening of the canal'to the end of May last-a period of sixteen months the total number .of ships which passed through waa 813, with an aggregate tonnage of 745,837 tons, and carrying passengers to tbe number of. 46,374. This is very far below the original estimates, which placed the tonnage received for the first year at 1,000,000 tons, and although the traffic bas shown a steady increase since the opening, the arrivals for the present year do not war? rant the belief that the total amount will equal 1,000,000 tons. The failure of the ex? pectations of the promoters in the matter of traffic accounts for the fact that the compa? ny was last year aoable to pay the interest on its mortgages, which amount to about $2,000,000 per annum, besides the sinking fund, which must be provided for from sur? plus earnings. But if all these expectations had been realized, the company would not be much better off, since a traffic of 1,000,000 tons would not have yielded a rev? enue sufficient to pay the heavy current ex? penses of maintenance and operation, and pay the interest on its bonded debt when due. The managers of the company have, of coarse, plenty of excuses to render for their inability to meet their financial obligations, the principal one being the disturbing effect of the war upon commerce; but the only good reason which they have to present is that they over-estimated the tonnage move? ment by the Suez route, and, consequently, over-eEtimated the earnings of the canal. 'The shareholders and bondholders will, therefore, have to pocket their losses for the time, and wait for profits until the increased tonnage of the canal shall insure a revenue great enough to enable the company to meet j its liabilities and pay dividends. As far os the canal is concerned, tbe reve? nues now earned are sufficient to cover the coat of maintenance and repairs. An an? nual tonnage of 460,000 tons would cover this, so that there is already a small margin of surplus for the debenture holders. To free itself from its present financial difficul? ties, tbe managers are discussing the practicability of borrowiDg money for pres? ent necessities. The plan proposed by the directors is to borrow about $4,000,000 to clear off encumbrances and pay their way to the end of the year, after which they hope the increase of traffic will be sufficient to meet all demands upon the treasury of the company. The calculation is based upon a traffic that will yield a revenueof $2,0*00,000, implying about 1,000,000 tons of shipping. All such calculations are, of necessity, mere* ly speculative, and if there is any deficiency the successive borrowings to cover succes? sive deficits would add new complications to the present financial embarrassments of the company. The London Economist, discus? sing this important question, suggests that, as the Viceroy of Egypt is the principal shareholder, perhaps the wisest plan would be for bim to pat an end to the form of a company, assume all debts and manage the enterprise as a government affair. As to what has been accomplished during the past year, M. de Lesseps says: "The "canal has been dug out along its whole "length or about 100 miles, in its normal "breadth at the water-line of from G5 to 107 "yards, to more than 26 feet in depth "throughout; that is to say that, in order to "be sure of having a depth of 26 feet every "where, and in order to diminish the expen? ses of the early years or the canal, the "dredging-machines in the greater part or "the distance only left off working when "they had reached a depth of about nine "yards. The- curves have been made less "sharp, and stations, which are placed at "intervals of 172 yards, allow larger ship3 to "pass each other. No less than fourteen "large ships passed a certain point in one "day without inconvenience." Thia paragraph disposes of some of the objections urged against the canal, chiefly in the columns of the English press. It re? mains only to kee'j bondholders and miscel? laneous creditors at bay until traffic in? creases. The public, in any case, may reel confidence in the perpetual maintenance or tho work, as it would be to the advantage or the Great Powers to keep the canal open even at some cost to themselves. Thanks to the Protectionists, there are DO American merchantmen worth speaking or, and it is not probable that the United States will be called to pay a share. Or the vessels which pass through trae Suez Canal ooo ia a hun? dred may ca?ry the Stars and Stripes, but seventy or*,, of every hundred flaunt the ero s 3 of St. ?ieorge. As seventy is to one, BO is Free Trade to Protection I A Law Salt In Prospect. A meeting of the citizens of Anderson was held in the Courthouse on Friday night last, for the purpose of considering future action in regard to the Air Line Railroad. Resolutions were adopted to the effect that the attorneys heretofore employed be instructed to proceed at once against the corporation known as the "Atlanta and Richmond Air Line Railway "Company," for violation of the chartered rights of the people of Anderson in refuelng to construct the road by this place. The An? derson Intelligencer expects that proceedings will be instituted without delay, and that a legal decision oi this vexed question will be made at the earliest possible moment. .funeral Noticee.

Junl9-lamo3 ^MEDICAL MISTAKES.-IT TOOK the faculty about a thousand years to discover that the best way to cure disease was not to rend? er the patient too weak to contend with it. with? in the last twenty years, however, the whole fjstem of medical practice baa been changed for the better. In diseases or complaints caused by excessive heat, for instance, the doctors no longer recommend the redaction or the iavalid'a strength by prostrating medicines. The vast sue cess which Bas attended the ase of HOSTEITER'S STOMACH BITTERS as a remedy for debility has given even the most prejudiced members of the old school an insight imo the only true and ra? tional theory of cure. Canttarldes, calomel, and overpowering doses of opium are now among the obsolete nostrums of another age. The lancet, once as much the legitimate weapon of the physi? cian as the sword li ot the soldier! la seldom drawn from Its CBBO. The principle of life ls no longer drained from the Lvelns by the quart, and water-gruel for the strengthless invalid has ceased to bs considered an appropriate diet. Vigor ls the motto of the rational members of the profession, and they understand at last the valne of a sterling vegetable tonic. So also with the people at large; and without consulting medical men at all, they have adopted the Bitters aa a houaehold remedy, thereby economizing both cash and health. Note the fact that BOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS ls sold In bottles only-never In bulk and that the abortions springing up In varions parts of the country, and sometimes offered as substitutes for the great national specific, are all utterly worthless. augi9-stuth3n*c PS* GERMAN SOOTHING CORDIAL.
