COlletOn Bitters.

NNHESE Bitters are purely vegetable com
u pound and are offered 10 the public from
principle of benevolence under the fullest convic-
ton that they will be found safe and sovereign
semedy for Dyspepsia. They have been trium-
,hanty tested, not only BY some Of the most re-
spectacle families and physicians in the State Of
South Carolina, who have furnished ample testi-
mony as to their decided excellence, but also by the
eroprieor who for ten years, suffered all the gloom
incident to that stubborn and distressing disease.
Nj They possess the peculiar excellence, denied to
most other Btters, Of not proving injurious by con-
tinued use. They contain not single deleterious
ingredient, and, as seen from the directions which
accompany each bottle, may be given with entire
safety to an infant in the month.
h In accordance with your request that would
give my opinion concerning the "Coletin Bitters,"
which have both taken myself and used in my
practice, itaffords me pleasure in being able to
sert that | entertain for il mo high and exalted
opinion, as being medicine well calculated to give
elief and even cure the disease for which il s is
rued, and has become notorious, namely, Dyspepsia

as dyspeptic remedy, more often attended with
such gratifying and pleasing result, substituting
for disease good health, for melancholy and OPP

as dernier resort when the patient was too debi-
tated TO undertake the task, these btters (by the
consent of The attending physician) were resorted
to, and by persevering continuance attended with
the most unlocked for and happy effects-changing
family Of distress and affection to one of happi>
ness preserving for the infants the guardian eye ofa

AN EXCITING SCENE,
What is it but map OF busy life,
Its fluctuations and its vast concerns p COtoper.


A scene Of great panic and excitement oc-
cured on board the steamer "Hendrick Hud-
son." on the North River, on Friday night
last, a few minutes before l2 O'Clock. The pas
sengers had all retired to rest, and most OF them
were in sound sleep. All was still and calm,
save the noise Of The engine and the splash OF
the waters as the boat cut her way towards
New York. Suddenly a passenger who had
provided himself a comfortable berth in the
gentlemen's cabin, sprang from his place OF
repose and exclaimed in the voice OF a Slentor
Fire. Fire! /! FGel We are all gone, we are
all lost In an instant the passengers were
awake, and as may well be imagined, in a
dreadful state ofialarm. f sss.s tsaf ft
Few OF them attempted 10 dress themselves,
but as they rushed together into the midst OF
the cabin, each striving to gain access 70 the
doorway, the confusion and excitement were
awful. Theihands on deck, knowing that there
was no danger, that the alarm was false one,
endeayored 10 soothe and prevent the egress
OF the affrighted crowd but for time this on
ly rendered the matter worse. AT last some
one with lungs little stronger than the rest,
and who had discovered the cause OF the panic,
cried out at the top Of his voice. that all safe
and that "lhe cry Of panic and fear had pro-,
ceeded from passenger who WAS TROUBLED
WITH THE NlGHrmAREp' The change was in,
deed happy one, and the passengers resumed
their berths amid roars of laughter. .r

FATHER AND SON..

A man who lives in this town, was recently,
on complaint of his own son. sent 10 the house
of correction. The son, who was, we should
think, about seventeen years of age, said that
his father took all his earnings, Che was max
ing good wages, and spent them for rum,
without providing at all for the family. The
young man said that he conid endure i no
longer, and entered complaint to Justice Ellis.
During the trial, or just previous. his daughter
remarked, and we were exceedingly sorry to
hear it. that she should rather work all the
days Of her life and earn money with which
her father could buy rum, than 10 have him go
TO the house of correction.
Iii a sad sight, we know, TO see the hus,
baud or the father on his way TO theplace OF
punishment, but when man becomes SO bad
as TO deprive his family of bread, and IS daily
growing worse, we know not what other course
can be adopted. However much the daughter
might have felt for her father. she should mol
have been willing to find him rum, even TO
have shielded him from punishment. = 'Aa
