Tho following excellent rebuke to the leaders of its party, is from the Chicago Tribune, a leading Republi? can journal: "The South is ulrondy not only poverty-stricken, but absolutely beg? gared. Let our readers imagine what the ooudition of the loyal States would be if ali our national securi? ties," now in the hands of the people, were made suddenly worthless; if the- bonds of the individual States were reduced in valu o one-half, and made unsalable at almost any price; if the bank circulation were caused to suddenly disappear; if the green? backs wero wiped out like pencil marks, by a damp sponge; if nino teen-twentiethsof the manufacturing machinery wero destroyed ; if throe fourth's of tho domestic animal? wore killed off; if half of thc household furniture, conveniences and utensils were broken up; if half the young men in tho country were slain; if the labor system, such ns we have enjoy? ed, were utterly upturued ; if all pub lie and private credit were so far de? stroyed that no State could borrow a dollar and no man could buy for his note a bushel of corn; if, in a word, out of all our former wealth nothing but weedy land and heritage of dis? order remained-imagine the loyal States, we say, so reduced, and we have a picture of what the South is to-day! 4'If it were possible to add to the disabilities of a people already so poor in all that constitutes wealth; if there wore no such thing in the eco? nomy of God or mau as the forgive? ness of sins, if it were possible, even, to punish six millions of people by the imposition of the penalties that may be fitted to an individual-what, we ask, would Mr. Stevens accomplish by th? incorporation of his proposal into law? Will he increase the aver? age loyalty of the people to the Go? vernment of tho TJnitsd States by turning them ont of the homes in which they now barely subsist? Will the productive industry of the South be increased by new obstacles in the way of tilling her fields? Will har? mony between the unreconciled sec? tions be promoted by this new and potent cause of estrangement and hate? No, Mr. Stevens, no! Rut suppose tho public good nud the de? mands of justice made confiscation even remotely justifiable, how would we proceed? Who will buy tho pro? perty that Mr. Stevens proposes that the marshal may take? The ?negroes have nothing; tho whites have no? thing; there is no emigration South? ward-in tho condition of affairs created by this measure there could be no emigration. Where, then, is the market for the confiscated estates? Is there so little land in this broad country that Northern men will go South to buy property that carries with it an entail of irreconcilable hate and possibly blood? Aro Eu? ropeans so lavish of their lives that they covet homes that can be at the most but insecurely held by perpetu? al vigilance and the repeating rifle? Are there any peoplo, anywhere, who long for tho state of society that genaro! cr oven partial eonnscation in tho South would create-for the way? side assassinations of intruding land? lords, for retaliatory measures di? rected against ejectod owners, for the bitter fonds and animosities that would end only in the death or ba? nishment of those who are purtles thereto. Or docs tho Government, stopping out of its legitimate func? tions, desire to be the great landlord and lessor of half the real estate in a domain on which an empire might bo fouuded, having always an army of dependents ready to do ils will? "These ave only interrogativo sug gestions; but they point out, in a general way, the objeotions that wo hold to be valid against tho whole confiscation scheme; and we are sure they will strike our readers so forci? bly ns they have impressed tis; and having considered them, they will a?3jeo with the ablest thinkers and wisest statesmen of our party, that confiscation would bo a cruelty for which no necessity hos yet arisen for which none will arise." THE ROCKVILLE MUIIDKH. -We copied yesterday, from tho Charles? ton Mercury, a paragraph concerning an atrocious murder of a freedman at Rockville "We lenru from the Cou? rier, of Tuesday, that another freed? man has been arrested, suspected of tho crime. The Courier says: "From all that wo could learn, the arrest of Johnson seems, under the circumstances, to have been very justifiable. He had been paying attentions to a young colored girl, who, after giving him encourage? ment, jilted him, and engaged her? self to the deceased, against whom Johnson swore vengeance. The pri? soner absented himself from this city on Friday morning last, and returned early yesterday, and upon being questioned at different times previous to his arrest in reference to his whereabouts in tho interim, gave conflicting responses. It appears, also, that impressions of foot-prints, which were found immediately under the window of thc room in which the unfortunate man was murdered, were t:ikcn as8O0U as thc crimti was disco? vered, and have, upon examination, corresponded exactly with those o? the prisoner." GENERAL Pori: AT THE RKPL'DLICAN CONVENTION.-A despatch from Mont? gomery, Ala., dated 7th, says: General Pope arrived this morning, and addressed tho Convention, say? ing that he had not como to dictate its action, but would advise modera? tion. The Convention immediately adjourned, and thc radical State committee wa? called'together. Gen? eral Pope told the delegates private? ly, that the Convention must nomi? nate State officers, from Governor down, to be voted for at the same time as the Constitution as this would secure the adoption of the Constitution, by calling out the ma? jority of the registered voters. He also said that they should have as many voting precincts as they want? ed, and that it would never do to give np ut this stage of the game. During the day's session the resolu? tion to memorialize Congress for the repeal of the cotton tax was tabled. ACCIDENT ON TUE SOUTH CAROLINA RAILROAD.-The down passenger train from Augusta, due here yester? day morning, was detained by the naming off of the freight train ut tho thirty-three mile post.

To give debilitating medicines to thc weak is as about as sensible as it would bc to try to help a man to his Wet by kicking him when he was down. That sort of practice is going out of fashion. It has filled so many grave-yards that people no longer boliovo in it. If those who are not strong by naturo expect to avoid tho attacks of disease, they must endeavor to acquire tho vigor neces? sary to resist it. How is this to bo done? Common sense suggests, by the uso of invigorating medi? cine. The great object is to strengthen tho system without exciting it. This object ia accomplished by thc judi? cious use of the mo:', potent aud genial of all vcgetablo tonics and alteratives, IIOS TETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS. Many valuablo properties aro combined in this preparation. It improves tho appe? tite and renders digestion easy and per? fect. It gives steadiness to tho nerves, induces a healthy, natural dow of bile; prevents constipation without unduly purging thc bowels: gently stimulates tho circulation, sud by promoting a vigorous condition of tho physical system, promotes, also, that checrfnlncss which is the truest indication of a well balanced condition of all tho ani? mal powers. .Summer leaves both tho body and tho mind more or less exhausted.

THE TRIUMPH OF ART MORE TESTIMONY IN FAVOR OF Heinitsh's Queen's Delight. EXTRACTS FROM"LETTERS: "The Queen's Delight is beginning to awaken the attention of our physicians. Its romarkable curative power is seen in its wonderful efleet upon disease. As a blood purifier, thore is no medicine like it known to the profession. A gentleman, told me that, his son has been taking tho Queen's Delight, and is more benefited by it than by any ot her medicine. He wa nts? a dozen bottles." Extract from a letter: "It ia due to you to state in this public manner, in order that the people may know the truth, that I have tried your Queen's DeUght, and fonnd it not only what you said it was-"a pure medicine"-but the best medicino I nave ever taken for eruptions and general bad health. I had an eruption all ovor my body, with impaired digestion and disor? dered liver, and have tried a great many ' medicines without any benefit. I have taken one bottle of your Queen's Delight, thc emption has disappeared, my appetite is better, my liver and digestion is im ptoved. I am satisfied one or two more Lotties will cure me." Extract from a letter: "At the close of the war, my constitution was shattered. I could not cat, Bleep or perform any dnty whatever, such was my prostrato coed? tion. Medicine and medical aid I had in abundanco, such was my condition up to a few months since, when I began the uee of your Queen's Delight. I have used two bottle*, ray constitution is greatly im? proved, my appetite is good, enjoy refresh? ing sleep, and am able to perform my share of dailv labor." Extract from a letter-Wonderful effect of only one bottle: "I bavo used only a half bottle of 'Queen's Delight' for boil* and eruptions of the skin and itching hu? mors ol the blood, which annoyed me very much. I am entirely cured. I think your medicine a valuable one." A remarkable case of liver complaint and headache cured bv tho UHC of "Heinitsb'a Queen's Dolight:'f A lady of unquestioned worth and reputation voluntarily gives tes? timony of the wonderful effects of this medicine. She oas boen from early years a martyr to headaches, caused by imper? fect action of tho liver, producing intense headache and pain over the eyes. She has taken only four bottles, and assures us of tho perfect cure it has made. She now en? joys (rood health. Still another: "During last spring, I had been troubled with obstinate chills and fever, which, when cured, loft my system in a wretched condition, blood impure, and I was afflicted with an angry, and, as I at <>ne time thought, an incurable, cutaneous eruption over my entiro body. The most violent remedies suggested failed to work a euri); until, at the instance of a friend. T tried Dr. Heinitsh's Queen's Delight. LOBB than two bottles cured me, leaving my skin in a healthy condition. My generalhealth ls as good as over. For such purposes, I have, ever sinco mv cure, unhesitatingly recommended your Queen's Delight." Don't buy any bnt tho right sind.
