THE DAILY 'Let our Jutt Censure Attend tho True Event." BY J. A. SELBY. COLUMBIA, S. C.. SUNDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 9, 1870. VOL. VI-NO. 174. SOOTH CAROLINA LUNATIC ASYLUM, COLUMBIA, February 17, 1871. Mn. EDITOR: Abont three months ago, I received a letter from the Commission? ers of the Poor of Allegheny City, Pa., relative to one Priscilla Miller, who, a few days previous, had been pieked up on one of the streets of that city, in what appeared to be an epileptic paroxysm. She was in a most destitute aondition, and told the following story : That she had been au inmuto of the South Caro? lina Lunatic Asylum in Charleston; that she was discharged from that institutiou in the winter of 1870; that when BIIO left the Asylum, the Superintendent sent an attendant to accompany her to Pitts? burg, Pa., where elso had a brother liv? ing; that when they arrived at York, Pa., the attendant robbed her of her money and deserted her; that she was left in York without friends and without money ; that through tho kiuduess of the rail? road offioials, she was able to reach her destination, but could not find her bro? ther; that she was anxious to return to her friends in South Carolina, kc. Bo? ing in total ignorance of her history, no one here, UB far as I could ascortain, knowing anything of such person, and nothing on tho books of tho State. Asy? lum to show that she was ever an inmate of this institution, and thinking she might bave'been in one of tho hospitals in Charleston, I sent the Commissioners' letter to Dr. Robert Lebby, City Regis? trar of Charleston, who made diligent inquiry iuto the matter, but could lind no record of any such person us "Pris? cilla Miller" in any of the hospitals of that city. Last night, I received the enclosed let? ter, addressed on the envelope, "Dr. Mark Binney, Superintendent Insane Asylum, Columbia, S. C." I send you thin statement and tho letter, in order that if Priscilla has any friends iu this locality, they may leurn her present whereabouts nnd condition, and give, (if they desire to do so,) Mr. Randolph the information he seems so earnestly to de? sire in behalf of a benighted nnd dis? tressed fellow-mortal. Murk Ranney is not and never was Superintendent of thc South Carolina Lunatic Asylum, and may never have been born, for aught I know. There is evidently a screw loose some? where, and I have no doubt but that it is in this poor lady's braiu. Respectful? ly, &c, J. F. ENSOR, Superintendent. DELAWARE, OHIO, February 10, 1871. Dr. Mark Ranncy-DEAR Sm: There is now, and has boen Bince Saturday evening, tho 4th instant, in a portion ol the house in which I live, a lady, calling herself Mrs. Priscilla Miller, who soerm by spells to be, and, in fact, has severa times been attacked by spasms in thc shape of epilepsy. She states that six left your city about the 23d of January last; that she came along all right vit "Washington City to tho city of Balti more, where she was robbed of bei pocket-book, containing her througl ticket, together with ber trunk check the keys to her trunk and about $100 ii money. She says that the excitemen of mind which would naturally attenc anything of that kind completely upse her, and she was taken with thesi spasms, and thereby became unable ti proceed farther for a time; that in tin meantime she wrote to her brother, win lives within sixteen miles of this place who sent her fifty dollars, with a portioi of which ribo paid her expenses in'Balti more and bought a ticket to Columbus Her trunk was in her possession af te the robbery, and that the railroad mei at Baltimore told her it ?boula be foi warded to Columbus, whioh it seems ha not been done, whioh I shall speak c hereafter. She came here, as I said, and lande at our railroad depot from the 3.26 A M. train North, on tho morning of Feb mary 2, when she was immediate! seized with one of her spells, und viv taken to the nearest hotel, and ther oared for until Saturday, the 4th, a stated above, when she must have wat der?d away from there, she does nc seem to know how, and was found u the sidewalk, opposite where she now i in a spasm. She was brought into tl house, and taken charlo of by the tow trustees, and has been well cared for t a family in (as I said) a part of the hom in whioh I live, and where, at her ri quest, I now write. AB to the trunk, feeling au interest i her welfare, and being a member of tl I. O. O. F., I volunteered to accompac her to Columbus, which is only twent four miles distant, to assist her as might in the discovery of her trun After making full inquiry, I found th the trunk had not yet arrived, whit upset her again, and she hud several those spells on the way homo. She now quiet, and feeling tolerably we although 1 can see that the loss of h trunk is troubliug her sorely, and if contains what she claims it does, it is serious loss; but now every effort is bei used to find it that eau be. She is he without funds, and does need some a from some source other than that ni being used. Further, sho states that she had va able papers in her trunk, and wished i to ask yon to forward to ray addres copy of those papers; for what purp? or objeot I am unable to say. Tb - however, is her request, just as e stated it. She stated, also, that t wanted funds, and felt confident tba she wrote you, or had some ono do it her, she should get the funds in so shape. Her brother has not been to her vet, although I wrote him on M day last, the 6th, and there is a hackn here from the town where ho resi every day, who has seen and conver with her. I am well acquainted with brother, and she describes him accun ly; although she states that she bas seen him for twenty years or more. ! spoke of a lame hand he has, whicl have often noticed. Why he does como to seo ber I nm unable to say. Tbero is something .singular in her ea.se, which I nm not able to fathom. In thc description of her brother, however, she is sano. Now if you cnn give any infor? mation concerning ber (which she snys you can do) it will relieve tho minds of a few hero, at least, who feel an interest in her welfare. She states that her hus? band was both a Mason and Odd Fellow, and that her son is at West Point, which all looks reasonable and sensible enough, and perhaps is correct. Somo think her au iusauo person, but she does not seem to bc ono of tho one-idead ones, as some are; and yet I think she in, at times, flighty. Any information you can im- j part will bo gladly received. She states to me that yon can give me such infor? mation concerning ber as will be entirely satisfactory. If yon can do so it will be a great relief, both to her and others. lier object in wanting funds is, ns sho states, to return homo to South Carolina. She does not expect to visit her brother nt all, if ho does not como to see her. I am at a loss as to what moro 1 eau say, but do not think it necessary to say any? thing more on tho subject. All of the abovo I have written at her request, and bavo written what seems to me is about what, in tho case, should bo said. And still somo of her actions seem to me, particularly this evening, to strongly in? dicate insanity, but of what kind I am unable to 6?y, as I am not versed in either medical terms or iu diseases. Please reply ut your earliest convenience. Sho just now stepped iu and wished me to request you to send ono of tho letters that you received from her brother con? cerning lier farm in Kansas. Verv tru? ly, yours. H. K. RANDOLPH. P. S. Please write me as above, Dela? ware, Ohio. An old mau arose nt :i meeting in a Methodist church in Jefferson County, Iowa, a few nights ogo, and addressed tho young people prescut, telling them that he had long sought to live u Chris? tian, nnd that lifo was most uncertain.

When witnesses como forward in crowds, year after year, and reiterato the samo statements in relation to the beneficial effects of a medicine upou them? selves, disbelief in its efiicacy is literally im? possible. The credentials of this unequalled tonic and alterative, extending over a period of nearly twenty years, include individuals of every class, and residents of every clime, and refer to thc most prevalont among the com? plaints which afllict and harass tho human tamily. Either a multitude of people, i strangers to each other, have annually been Hcized with an insano and motiveless doBiro to deceive tho public, or HoBtetter'e Ritters, for no less than a fifth of a century, have been affording such relief to sufferers from indi? gestion, fever and aguo, biliousnons, general debility, and uervous disordsrs, as no other proparation lias evor imparted. To-day, while the eyes of the reader are upon these lines, tens of thousands of persons of both soxes aro relying upon the Ritters as a euro dofenco against the ailments which tho present soason engenders, and their confidence in not mis? placed.
