The NATCHEz FENCIBLEs.---On the 9Th

in the House Of Representatives, requiring
that the Secretary Of War cause to Be paid

and the usual travelling allowances DC"

Natchez Fencibles. II Is difficult to deter
mine BY what method Of reasoning the
committee on Ways A. Means have arrived
at the conclusion that this company is en-,
titled to any pay from the United States

that upon themselves rests allthe blame Of
their non-reception u part Of the Missis-
sissippi Regiment. They knew the terms
Of the requisition for volunteers were In
possession Of the orders Of the War De-

BY Gov. Brown Of the terms upon which
they would be mustered into the service of
the United States. They went to the place
Of rendezvous with full knowledge Of all
the facts-and were not received, owing to
theirinability to comply with the terms Of
the requisiuon, after having made repeated
endeavors. Ifthey incurred expense, twas
not occasiOned BY ignorance Of the law, or
by a misapprehension Of the orders Of the
War Department. They knew what would
be the result if they repaired to vieksbafg
and attemptedto obtain situation ia the
Regiment without full company. The
risk, therefore, was their own, and il would
be unjust if the treasury Of the United

WHITE SULPHUR WATER, from
w the White Sulphur Springs, Green

brier county, virginia.--The reputation of
the White Sulphur water is now 80 general, and its
virtues in the cure Of various diseases so well
known throughout this country, that it is deemed
unnecessary to enter into general detail of its pc
culiar properties or Of its special application dis
ease but il is deemed proper TO state here, for the
information of those who as yet may have had no
opportunity of testing the virtues Of the White Sui
phur water, when removed from the fountain, that
the proprieors have been engaged for several years
in transporting the water to all parts OF the country
n barrels and half barrels, which have undergone
areful and thorough preparation, and that it has
satisfactorily asceItaned that the medical prop
critics Of the water reside mainly in Its solid con-
tents; and as these not deposited or otherwise
lost by expectation, the transported water must re-
tain as much strength that used fresh from the
fountain. Numerous comparative trials made with
the water thus transported and the water fresh al
the spring, by intelligent and observant persons
from all parts of the Union, with a view Of ascer-
tanning its strength in either case, have abundantly
proved the truth of this position. Various letters
subsantiating these facts in the possession OF
the propretors, copies Of some of which may be
found in the pamphlets containing general drec-
tons for the use of the water, which are furnished
to the vendors for gratutous distribution among their
customers.
Such as may desire information in relation to this
water the proprletors respectfully refer to the fol-
lowing gentlemen Dr. George Hayward, Hon.
Abbott Lawrence, and Hon. Thomas II. Perkins,

THoMAs BEwLEY and ANN, his wife, In Queen
AIMS county
rs. court, sitting
as court Of
JAMES L. BEwLEY. term, 1886
FVNHE object Of this suit is to procure a decree for
l. n sale of certain premises in Queen AIMS
county, conveyed by a certain James Roe to James
L. Bewey, nonresident, in fee, that your orators
may receive the difference between the sum paid
therefor by said James L. Bewley, and the amount
of such sale, in the event that said James L. Bew-
ley shall not pay unto your orators the sum of ff-
teen hundred dollars, with interest from the date Of
the aforesaid conveyance.
The bill states that, some years ago, your orators
conveyed certain premises to certain James Roe,
in Fee for the of two thousand dollars but that
said conveyance intended to operate as mort
gage, for that said Roe passed his bond to Thomas
Bewley, binding himself TO reconvey on the pay
ment to said Roe of said two thousand dollars; and
further that said Roe gave n bond to Ann, wife Of
Thomas Bewey, providing for her on annuity of
seventytwo dollars during her natural life, in case
said Ann should survive said Thomas Bewley.
The bill further states that said Roe offered to your
orators the sum Of fifteen hundred dollars for the
delivery of the aforesaid bonds, but that your
tors, believing the said premises to be worth more
money, and being unwilling the title should pass
out of the family of your orators, prevailed upon
James l.. Bewley, the defendant to discharge the
debt due and owing to said Roe, who thereupon
conveyed said premises to said defendant in fee; but
your orators aver that it was understood and agreed
between them and said defendant, that the defend
ant should have only the estate and interest therein
which said Roe had held; and that, trusting to the
flial affections of said defendant, did not require
such obligations from him as said Roe passed, and
now said defendant hath elected them from said
premises to the great injury of your orators, and
they are without remedy, except by the interference
of this court; and that the said James L. Bewley
resides out Of the State Of Maryland.
It is thereupon adjudged and ordered, that the
complainant, by causing copy of this order to be
inserted in some newspaper published in the city Of
Washington, District Of Columbia, once in each Of
three successive weeks before the first day of July
next give notice TO the said absent defendant Of the
object and substance Of this BILL and warn him to
appear in this court in person, or by SOLICITOR on or
before the second day of November next, to answer
the premises and show cause, If any he has, why
decree ought not to pass as prayed.
