Tbe doctors [are almost daily confronted with some new and fatal disease, wbioh kills off its thousands before a remedy is found or tbe cause ascertained, and Providenoe I comes in for a large share of the reapon I sibility. Some folks retain the old one torn of cooking their own food, and of investigating closely every article, di ] reotly guarding against villainous adul , toratious; but thousands are daily placing their health and their lives at the meroy of tboso whose business it is to sell adul? terated food. There are paina and aohee and fevers and gripings and death; still the work of adulteration, eiokneae, death I and burying goes on. Faro dealora are j arrested and punished, intemperance is loudly condemned, bat those who en [ gage iu the nefarious business of poison? ing the people with adulterated food go unpunished and unrebuked by the au? thorities. We are glad to know, how? ever, that here and there a oity ia looking iuto the subject with startling results. Iu tbe oity of Dundee, Scotland, the people have been greatly surprised by an I analysis of their daily food, instituted and carried forward by the Superintend? ent of the Polioe. An English paper I states that the Dandeana had no idea of the nastiness they had been in the habit of swallowing. Out of eighteen samples I of tea, some of them purchased from I the largest tea warehouses in .Dundee, there was not one sample among, them winch was not more or less adulterated with Prussian blue, black lead, starch, I tumerio, oarbonate of lime, China day and terra alba, or one or more of these {articles. Out of fire samples of coffee, there was not a pure sample, bnt all were mixed with ohioory. Of four sam? ples of oocoa, there was no sample un I mixed with starch and sugar. Of sam Lplea of flour, none were pore, all being j more or leas mixed with ulatu. Of four [samples of bread, none were unmixed with alum. Of four samplet of butter, none were unadulterated, all being more or less mixed with fat. They are, how? ever, in Dundee, better off than most people as regards their beer and wine. All the samples of olaret, port, sherry, porter, bitter ale and sweet rum and brandy were found free from adultera? tion; and on the whole, the result of the analysis seems to show that in Dundee, at least, tbe drunkards have the advan? tage over gluttons, and that tbe grocers are bigger sinners than the publicans. The Bailboad Biudqe at Alston.? The Union Times speaks as follows of the substantial structure being erected by the Greenville and Colombia Railroad over Broad Biver, which will be com? pleted in a ehort time: When finished it will bo one of the best built bridges, in the whole ooontry, will last a hundred years, and be a monu? ment to the taste, energy and skill of Col. Dodamead and the mechanics em? ployed on it. We havo never Been bet? ter timber put iuto any structure. It will be enolosod at the sides, with a tin roof, and when completed will cost about 830,000. We think it will prove to be money well spent, for we doubt if our children's children will livo to see tbe time when a new bridge at that point will bo required. Tbat Brooklyn "drunk" who tried to stranglo himself by forcing his head through the wickot door of his cell, Sa? turday night, didn't have a very good time. Ho woighod nearly 200 pounds, and instead of strangling ut once, as he hoped, he found that it would probably take all night to ohoko him to death. So ho yelled, hut thoy couldn't push his head back, and it took tho mechanics threo hoars to take the door to pieces. The following beautiful and truthful lines are from tho pun of Father Byan: "Nevor baud drow sword from stain as free, And nover sword led braver band, Or braver bled for a brighter laud, Or brighter land had cause so grand, Or a cause a chief liko Leo." This may be a trifle personal, but it's the way they put things out West. A St. Louis editor, in speaking of a brother I ink-slinger, says: "He is young yet, but he oau sit at his desk and brush tho cob wobs from the ceiling with his oars." Mr. John B. Millhouso died suddenly las Tuesday morning, at his residence iu Oracgoburg. County, about ten miles from Graham's, of apoplexy. A man and woman married iu Colum? bus, Ga., last Friday morning, fought in tho afternoon, and passed tho first night j of tho honey-moon in the guard house. Tho only encouraging sign of a re? publican government in Louisiana is tho fact that a base ball club flourishes there. Ono Mrs. Wade fulfills woman's mis? sion as a blacksmith at Fort Scott, Kan. "An Informal Session of Congross" is what tho St. J.ouis Republican calls it. - .? will point a moral, nevortneies*. An. Iowan, to&SftpP0* Violl?a lovely name, BUflgestlvA ol a crystal bottle? was a wicket^ man, swore, drank and fought chickens. He went to Washing jbin to get an Indian agenpy. A friend Void hfm his first step was to join the Q.jakers'or tue Methodists ?didn't make any difference which?and thus qualify hima?lZ to carry out the President's pence polioy. Jasper Violl was strnck with tbe force of the advioe, and pon? dered which of the two great ohorohes ha should join. Jasper's early educa? tion had not been of *auoh natnre as to give bim a bias toward either Qaakeriam or Methodism, and to his uuprrjradioed mind, the two systems were so much alike tbat be couldn't make a choice. In fact, Jaaper might have died in his sins, ont of the pale of the visible ohnroh, j and gone to the Hot Sulphur Springs, had not the good Rev.' Dr. Newman, I chaplain to the Senate and spiritual ad | viser of the President, come along just at i that junotnre and told bim to "join ojr ohnroh," namely, the Methodists. Jas? per did so, was duly baptised, got his appointment, and went ont to the Indian Territory. He had a salary of $2,500, amassed oooaiderable wealth by strict at? tention to honesty and other practices, and finally bad to be turned ont of office for various things not authorized by In? dian customs, civilised law, or the Me I thodist discipline. It is a matter of re? gret that Jaaper immediately relapsed I iuto his old fondness for game oocks, and has recently bought a fighting chicken for professional purposes at a cost of $100. We grieve to say that Jaaper Violl is now regarded by his church as a vial of wrath, and that his ohances for passing the jasper walls aro diminishing. Let us hope that tbe hun? dred dollar game cock he has bought will provo to be a lineal descendant of the one which admonished the Apostle Peter so successfully, and that when it blows its shrill olarion, Jasper will also "go out and weep bitterly." We fear Jasper is a fair aample of the average In? dian agent.?Louisville Courier Journal. Statue op Stonewall Jackson.?Dur? ing tbe war, a number of English gen? tlemen,, who sympathized with the I Southern cause, united in the effort to j proonre a suitable memorial of the great I Virginia soldier who fell at Ohanoollora villo. Several distinguished persons, among tbem Hon. Beresford Hope, M. P., and Mr. Gregory, now Governor General of Gey Ion, interested themsolves earnestly in the movement, and in a very short time a suffioient fond was raised, and the order was given an artist. Mr. Foley, who was chosen, is probably tbe first of living Eagliah sculptors, and those who have opportunities of deter? mining the basis on which his reputation rests, express their belief that this work will be of the highest order of art. The statue is of bronze, of heroic size, and represents the hero as standing in a favorite attitude of absorbing thought. Tbe work was oomepleted some time since, but, owing to oironmstsnoes whioh oan be better understood than expressed, tbo donors have postponed its shipment to this country. Lately, however, Mr. Hope has written to a Vir? ginia officer who was the intimate, friend and oomrade of General Jackson, asking his advioe as to the best disposi? tion to be made of the statue, and the recipient of tbis oommnnioatiou has con? sulted with other Confederate officers. As yet, no determination has been ar? rived at; but it oanuot be long bofore the j site will be chosen, and some favored ^pot of Virgioia's soil be consecrated by an enduring monument to one whose genios and heroism illustrated in life ul 1 death all the highest virtues of tbe race from which he sprung. Rxwards.?Last winter, the Generali Assembly of tbe State appropriated $35,000 to tho payment of claims for re-1 I wards offered by Governor Scott, for tho arrest of Ku Klux. Tbo claims have' been referred to a commission, which has not yet reported. It is stated, how? ever, tbat a certain Circuit Judge of South Carolina has succeeded in "mak? ing a raise" on these rewards. Wo are collecting some information on this sub? ject, and ?ball vontilato tbe matter. We want to Jnow if to be a Judge, is a license to practice bribery aud corrup? tion before tbe Legislature.

The New York^hamhar pi Oommeroe has recently -^Vru&d afrc#maV! giving the statistics of the foreign trade of the! country for the fiscal year ending Jone 30,1872, with our dealings in detail with the various nations of the globe. The aggregate imports, deducting re-exports, were $617,609,009,, gold valuation, and the exports, also stated at a gold valua? tion, on the basis of ten per cent, pre? mium, were 8500,199,144. This shows an excess of imports of $117,869,825. Our chief trade is with Oreat Britain. From that nation,we receive two-fifths of our imports, auct- to - it We send mnoh more than half our exports, receiving I goods valued at nearly ?241,000,000, and sending out produce amonting to nearly 8285.000.000,80 that the British trade! is $44,000,000 in onr favor. The next hoaviest trade is with Ooba, $66,000,000 Coming in and 812,000,000 going ont, a j balance against us of $54,000,000. Ger? many stands third, we receiving over $45,000,000 and sanding ont $88,000,000; and France fourth, onr importa thence being ?42.000,000 and our exports to that country $22,000,000, the balance j being adverse in both oases. With Canada, onr dealings are 938,000,000' imports and $22,000,000 exports; with Brasil, $30.000,000 imports and $5,000,. 000 exports, and with China, 825,000, 000 imports and $7,000,000 exports, the balances in all these oases also -being igainst ns. In onr trade with Holland and Belgium, the balnnoe i8 favorable, being over $14,000,000, pelrole?m help? ing largely to make thia good ahowing. To Spain we send Si,000.000.more, than we get, but from Mexico we receive $3,000,000 more than we send,.? With Hayti, Chili, Peru, Russia and the Dan ish West Indies, our trade is of small amount, but the balance in each case is favorable. It will be noticed from the above that nearly one-half onr exoess of imports is in the trade with Cuba. . A Recruit fob Chant?The eccentric Henry A. Wise, of Virginia, has bounded into the political field again, and this 1 time as a sapporter of Grant, He was, not long ago, an irreconcilable, a last ditch "rebel," a "war to the knife and knife to the hilt" Confederate. Like Brownlow and other unstable Southern men of bis class, the ex-Governor has thought better of it and joined the ranks i of the enemies of his section. We may now expect to hear peans sung to the memory of the "hangman of John Brown" by the Republican newspaper J chorus. Mr. Wise proposes to run for Governor of Virginia on an independent Administration ticket, in the forthcom? ing election. He is sanguine of Success, but does not say where the votos sure 1 coming from. The Democrats will not touch him, and the negroes and carpet? baggers will have a candidate of their own. His chances are exceedingly, stym. A Cincinnati drummer who, with the I aid of his feet, filled two seats on the morning traiu of the I, C. & L. R. B.f a | few days since, and who was too ugly to move, though the car was crowded, was completely upset when the conductor Suietly took out his foot rule, and, after eliberately taking the measuro of his feet, announced in aloud tone, "Eight? een and three-quarter inches 1" the great roar of laughter all through the car j which followed oaasing the fellow's feet to come down in a hurry, as he made himself as small as possible in the one' seat be had paid for.
