R. Allen, Chester. Julius Poppe, Anderson C. H. 8. P. Kinard, Newberry C. H. James Qraut, Union. Th? Recent Terrible Tornado tn Georgetown District-Full Particu? lars. Our District, on Thursday last, .was visited by one of tho most terrific tornadoes known to the memory of our oldest oitizens, and for tho scope of country involved, challenges tho gale of 1822. A large bluck cloud was seen moving from West to East, and muoh wind accompanied ils transit as felt in the town, but the violence with whioh it raged and the destruction of property and loss of lives ia really appalling. For a more detailed account we are indebted to M. H. JJ. Perrin for the accompanying notes, which he has given us c?rrente c?lamo, during a visit to the Pee Dee country shortly after this "visi? tation of the wiuds." Mr. Perrin says: On visiting the scene of the tornado on the Pee Dee and Waccamaw Eivers, and the country between, I learned the following particulars: On my way up, on Friday morning, I met Dr. Sparkman, who told me that at about half-past 2 o'clock on Thursday afternoon, (tho wind blow? ing pretty fresh foran hour previous,) as he was sitting in his study read? ing, his attention was drawn to a peculiar hissing and rumbling noise, and, on going to his window, he saw a column of what he supposed to be heavy black smoko, and thought that some building in the vicinity of Birdfield was on fire; but ia a mo? ment it appeared to whirl for an in? stant, and then started with lightning speed toward the Pee Dee. Having thanked him for his information, I Sroceeded on my way and reached [r. F. W. Macueker's plantation, "Birdfield." Upon coming to the avenue entrance, we found it com? pletely choked up with fence rails and fallen trees, but by a circuitous route I reached the place. There the scene was terrible and required one to be an eye-witness to realize the great force of the gale. Every? thing in the shape of a fence leveled, and about eleven houses, barns, otore honse, cow-shed and tho other out? buildings, one total wreck. But the trees! they were indeed a sight; about fifty in the vicinity of the house were torn from the ground liko straws and thrown in all directions, some of them immense live oaks, varying from eight to fifteen feet in circumference, carried yards from their position. Tho ground was literally covered with boughs, shin? gles, bricks and fence rails. No lives lost here, although tho escapes were numerous enough, as a number had not time to gain shelter, and were thrown about liko feathers and re? ceived moro or lesas brnisos. From here I went to Dr. Fishburno's plan? tation, "Enfield,"' and from my late experience I was prepared to seo a general tear up, aa this place was in a more direct lino of tho gale; but I did not expect to witness such a gene? ral destruction. It is impossible to describo it, unless we say that with the exception of tho dwelling house and fifteen other houses, tho place is o"c ?cass of ruins. Thirty-one houses of all descriptions and sizes seventeen of them substantial ne? gro houses-completely demolished; about fifty trees, generally largo live oaks, from ten to twenty feet in cir? cumference, torn up and scattered in all directions. There wero two wo? men killed instantly in the centro of n field, and some forty others wound? ed, seven very seriously. Dr. Fish? burno's avenue (which I believe had been a handsome one) had tho ap? pearance of a Western . "clearing up" done in a hurry. Upon hearing tho first hissing noise of the approach of the gale, Mrs. Fishburne stepped to a window to close the sash, but as she lov ered it, it was dashed to pieces. The wagon and carriage house fell upon their contents in one moss-completely demolishing the doctor'? rolling stock. Strange to say, the horses were in the stable that WUK destroyed, b'.?t CCCipO.d 'S?ta ? few scratches. The cows on both places were picked up and rolled over like barrels-bat, with one or two exceptions, escaped with bruises. Dr. F. sa\s it did not take thirty seconds to pass over his place. I then went over to Waccamaw River, and visited the plantation of Mr. Frank Hudson, "Turkey Hill." He was a little ont of the course, but had seven houses and his fences de? stroyed. He also lost a cow, and had ono or two persons slightly hurt. Two negro boys at this place wore taken np and thrown around the Hold like foot-balls, eventually bring? ing up suddenly in a very soft ditch. I did not have time to visit Oatland plantation, but it fared equally with Turkey Hill. A negro child reported killed. Its course in that vicinity after leaving tho "Pee Dee" was between "Squirrel Creek" and Tho? roughfare, and crossed tho Waccamaw at "Turkey Hill" and "Oatland." Mr. Robert Nesbit's "Woodstock Plantation" not touched. The force of the gale was not more than a quarter of a mile in width, but as it would appear to stop for an instant to gather strength, it would take n sort of zig-zag course, with redoubled force. Mr. Reese Ford's mill chim? ney, ou Black River, was destroyed; it appeared to havo beeu wrenched from its foundation; also all his fences, but no building. Mr. S. T. Gaillard's place is very badly dam? aged. For the two last items I was indebted to Dr. Tacker. Dr. Fish burne came over to Mr. Mar-?sker's place ou Saturday morning, and upon meeting with one of tho ne? groes, he said; "Well, boy, how did they use you here yesterday?" The negro answered: ""Lord! Massa Fish? erman, don't talk; de wind blowed de horns clean off a sheep head." Upon investigation, it was found that the sheep had been blown with such force against the tree, as to break off his horns. From the appearance of things about there generally, I do not wonder that the negro supposed the horns were blown off. It will take at least from 88,000 to $10,000 to put Dr. Fishburne's place in its former condition, and from $3,000 to $5,000 to do the sume for Mr. Macusker's place. The women killed at "Eulield" wero in the open field, two hundred yards from auy trees, but were crushed down by an im? mense oak that was uprooted and hurled on them. A canoe on Mr. Macusker's place was taken np in the air, and thrown over the barn, and from there one hundred and fifty yards into a ploughed field of Dr. Fishburne'8. Dr. Fishbnrno told me it was with the greatest difficulty he could get the women to do anything. After the tornado had passed, they appeared to be perfectly panic-strick? en; and it required the utmost per? suasion to bring them sufficiently to their senses to enable them to assist the wounded. Upon taking another walk over the "devastations" of Dr. Fishburne and Mr. Macusker, I no? ticed the great number of birds lying dead. - Georgetown Times. THAD. STEVENS TO HIS COLORED FRIENDS-HE GIVES HIS AUTHOR. Old Thad. Stevens made a speech the other day to tho General Conference of the Africau Methodist Church, in Washington, doing more honor to his colored brethren than he did to the Senate of the United States, by remaining standing while ho was speaking, and being spokeu to. In the course of bia remarks he admit? ted it was, "in a measure, through the agency of tho infernal regions, tlm.t his colored friends had become free, aud were at liberty to call them? selves men." It has been suspected for a long time that Old Thad, was in league with tho Old Harry, but there is no proof of his acknowledging tho fact until the present moment. This is taugible evidence of his approach? ing end; for it is notorious that tho worst sinners hold back thoir impor? tant confessions until the hour of dis? solution. Therefore, haviug acknow? ledged the real author aud inspira? tion of his many infernal doings iu this world, his hardest-hearted ad? versary cannot help wishing him an easy transit io a blissful hereafter. Ho may, however, after all, cheat the devil BA Richelieu cheated the king, and obtain a longer lease of power to do ?vil. But this death-bed confes? sion is on the record against him, and whatever of tho Satanic kind ho may do in the future will be attributed to the fact, that, like poor old Daddy Rice, in his well-known character of the colored Fra Diavolo, he has "sold himself to de debbil." I New York Herald. A letter from New York-appa? rently by a well-informed writer-to the Louisville Courier, says that the agent of the_ Virginia College, over ?iilu'u Gun. Leo presides, baa been kindly received by a great many pro? minent Republicans, and their re? sponse was generous, liberal and without conditions. The writer adds: "Dr. Tyng, sr., was the only man to whom Mr. Walton applied that de? manded any concession. He said: 'That if tho college would admit ne? groes, he would lend his influence in its behalf.' To this, Mr. Walton re? plied: 'That until Columbia College, of New York city, and other first class Northern institutions, admitted negroes, it was not reasonable to expeot a Southern college to adopt that polioy." The New York Sun gives a brief statement why the income tax is un? constitutional. It says tho Constitu? tion provides that all direct taxes shall be levied upou the States in proportion to their population. Con? gress has no power to levy any direct tax upon individual citizens, and must impose such taxes upon the States and upon thom only. Tho income tax is n direct tax; it is levied not upon the States, but upou indi? viduals, nud therefore it is uucousti tutional, und canuot rightfully bo collected of uny man. A C0L.0UED ORATOR CHOSEN.-Fre? derick Douglass has been chosen to deliver the next annual address be? fore tho students of the Indiana Slate University. Bishop Simpson, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, was elected as thc orator, and Fred. Douglass was elected alternate, and as Bishop Simpson will be unable to attend tho commencement exercises of the university, the address is to be given by the colored orator. If the reports of the London pa? pers and of the correspoudents of that city aro to be believed, Mr. Disraeli is occasionally a victim to a habit which sometimes betrays pub? lic men on both sides of the water. It is more than hinted that on the occasion of his last speech on the Irish Church question, on the night of tho division, he was "fuddled." Such is the state of famine in Finland, that those who wero em? ployed to carry relief to tho sufferers have found several villages, without a single living inhabitant; the corpses of the dead lying unburied in the streets und houses.

A FALLACY-Some peoplo think that chronic djopcfola may bo cured by exer? cise and diet alono. This is a mistake. Tho stomach muBt bo stimulated and regu? lated, and the liver and the discharging organs put in good working order before a cure can bc effected. Such is tho opera? tion of HOSTETTER'S BITTERS. "They tone the Btomach, Bet tho liver right, And put the stomach in such healthful Plight, That good digestion waits on appetite." Many persons fancy that fever and ague can be avoided by adopting unusual pre? cautions against damp and cold. Never waa there a groater fallacy. There is no absolute safeguard against malarious ma? ladies, except HoBtetter's Bitters. "To braco the frame, and make it ague proof, To keop the causes of diaoase aloof," There is nothing like this genial vege? table invigorant. So, too, in cases whero there is a predisposition to biliousness; tho constitutional tendency is combattcd and held in check by the alterativo action of tho Bitters. Diet and regimen aro powerful allies of I judicious medical treatment when the pre- | servatinn of hoalth in insalubrious locali? ties is the objoct in view. But they will not answer the desired end alone. Uso them as aids to the Bitters, but do not rely upon tho efficacy of any formula that does not include this admirable tonio. The Bitters consist of an unadulterated vegetable essence, (unrivalled among sti mulantH,) medicated solely with herbs and roots of acknowledged virtue as tonics. It is agreeable to the taste and perfoctly harmless. Even to children of delicate constitutions it may bo given with perfect impunity. In fact, with these, SB with those of older growth, its wonderful r?cu? p?rant properties are at once apparent. May io f6 AMERICAN HOUSE, BOSTON, MASS.

"YTOW IS THE TIME TO CLEANSE OUT _i.T? these l'ERIL?u? tsl'Uiti, l'imples, corrupt sores, which POLLUTE tho LIFE of the BLOOD, and render yonr body a loethesomo thing. They aro tho precur? sors of a diseased blood, and will assume a much more formidable shane if allowed to go on unchecked. Tho QUEEN'S DE? LIGHT, the only real blood purifier that has over boon invented, as thousands will to-day attest, is offered to the afflicted as a positivo remedy for all diseases flowing from a vitiated condition of tho system. THE LIFE OF THE FLE8H IS PURE BLOOD. Upon this theory alone the in? ventor of the Queen's Delight establishes the great hygienic law, WITHOUT PURE BLOOD NO FLESH IS FREE FROM DIS? EASE. Tho Pale and Shrunken Forms, Yellow Faces. Weak Stomachs, Diseasod Livers. Crippled Rheumatics, Nervous Hypochondriacs, Dyspeptic Victims of Headache, BO commun in this country, is owing entirely to tho humors of thc blood. Very many other disoasos may bo traced to bad blood, Scrofula or King's Evil, Erysi? pelas, Exaulbema or Elevurc, a raBh or eruption on females; Blotches, Tetter, Goitre or Swelled Neck, Syphilis and Sy? philitic Sores, Strumons UlcerB, Ac. These cannot bo cured without purifying tho blood. Now as to tho remedy. There is no other blood purifier that will accom? plish such positive and extraordinary cures as II oin it sb's Queen's Delight. You may take a barrol of extract Sarsaparilla, and still you will not bo cured; and, as a proof of it, look around and you will observo tho country, throughout" its length and breadth, is flooded with compound Sarsa Earillas, extracts and Bvrupa, claiming to e blood purifiers, and yet wo BCO to-day moro evidence of impurity of tho blood than over. Why is thie? Simply because these extracts and Sarsaparillas aro worth? less medicinoa. The Queen's Delight ia a new compound, and ia now the groat blood medicino; sane? tioned by the profession, patronized by the highest dignitaries of the land, endorsed by everybody. In tho brief period of twelve months, over 3,000 cases nave been treated so suc? cessfully as to entitle it to be the wonder of the agc. For debility, prostration, nervousness, mental depression, impaired digestion, loss of appetite, restlcsncss, want of vital forco. Low spirits; it is moro invigorat? ing and strengthening than all tho com? pounds of bark or bitters. As a livei invigorator, it is of inestimable value.
