 The vast number that have been cured by the use of this compound, during the past year, de- nonstrates this fact Not only recent acute or nfammatory eases, but old chronic cases, of ten, twenty thirty and even forty years standing; where they had not only tired every other external and internal remedy of which they could hear, but at great expense, had travelled, and passed under the l treatment of number of the first medical men of Europe, as well as of our own country, visited the various wattNing places, taken voyages al sea- and dwelt in the most salubrious chimes, without Ob taining relief. Some. who were reduced to mere skeleton, their flesh had withered away, their 1 limbs were paYalyzed, and many that had scarcely been able to walk for ten fifteen and twenty years. These have been cured sound and well, regained their flesh and the use of their limbs, and now en-' joy excellent health from the use of this compound. These facts are fully substsntiated by published testimony, from the highest possible sources tes. 1 timony that cannot be gainsad, but which can be vouched for by ten thOGsand witnesses.

NToRTIMoRE'S BITTER CORDIAL, AND 1Vx BLOOD PURIFIER; a Vegetable Spirit and the most scientific preparation ever produced; one bottle of which, IS warranted to possess more real medicinal virtues than ten times that amount of Sarsaparilla, or any other preparation put up for similar purposes. Its unequal virtues are soon made manifest in diseases having thelr origin in impurities of the blood, such as-Neuralgia, Scrof ula or Kings Evil, Erysipelas, CutaneouS Erup tons, Salt-Rhem, Tetter or Ringwom, PimpleS on tte face or surface of the skin, soreness or misery in the breast or region of the heart general debility or nervous affections, and all irregular habits of the system, (especially with females ) and the many derangementS of the nervous syS- tenn, and diseases arising from the njudcious use of caloinel and other poisonous drugs.
 This is fine cordial, pleasant and agreeable to take and perfectly safe to be used in any state of health, even by the most delicate female or child. And it is article that every one should use, at least once year, to purify and enrich their blood and thus prevent all manner of diseases.

Had South Carolina herself been ready

that acknowledged revolution is sometimes

next to our own, the most familiar to US of
all others, the revolution of 1858. But this
revolution perhaps, owed its peaceful charac-

readiness of the Prince of Orange to make

As the sense of the Convention upon any

and Parishes, each givng one vote, or rs
many votes as it is entitled to in the Legi<la-

have large delegation to deliberate long and
ven, ere they determine how the delegation
should vote. Moreover, the sight of an
army of sturdy back-woodsmen, may revive
the dropping patriotism of Charleston, and
reinvigorate the tagging courage of her de-
generate sons and perfumed foplings. It
may animate and give new strength to that
determined band of patriots, who are still
struggling manfully against the great odds
of the Bank and Commercial combination.

WE have only word to say to this writer
In our editorial reference" to the article
signed Decision of $780," we did use the
term submissionist" and we thought its
"appication was directed" with sufficient
plainncss to strike every one at glance
We spoke of those who were ready to ac-
quiesce, and to rest passive under the griev-
Gus wrongs of the past-of those who re-
commend that South Carolina shall ground
her arms of resistance as far as the past acts
of Federal Tyranny are concerned. And
this course we still denominate the course of
submission. The term strikes the writer as
being q "harsh epishet." We have consul
ted several dictionaries, and find nothing in
them, that will warrant any one in aflixing to
this particular word, 4 Specification that i'm
plies either disgrace or pusilanimity. "Sub-
mission" means obedience" and political
submission may perhaps be safely defined to
be absolute obedience to "thc powers that
bc"-whch st. Paul expressly recommends.
In this light, "resistancc may deserve to be
called the harsher term of the two.
But we apprehcnd that the harshness of
either cpithet is to be determined by the
strength or weakness Of the reasons it can
assign for the course it recommends. If
"submission |" be based upon good and suffi.
cient reasons, where is The harshncss of the
term; and the same of "rcsistancc." With
due respect to independence" we may con-
So AS to the advice which he has rakcd
up from "proverbial philosophy and ap-
piled to US, we think it good enough; and we
thank him for the trouble he has taken on our

that we have long since learned the lesson he
seeks to impart to us, from higher and hoier
authority than his "Proverbial Philosophy"
Inat we forget it, at times, is frailty Incl

OBITUARY.

DEPARTED this life, at their residence near
Hamburg, OH the 10th Of February last, Mrs. Re-
BEccA PERRIN BRANNoN, wife Of VIM. b. Bran
non, in the 55th year Of her age. She was the
daughter of Capt Edmund B. Bclchcr of Edge
field. aud under the instruction and example of
her pious and venerable parents, both of whom
survive her, she received those impressions which
were, afterwards, more fully and strikingly de-
yclopcd in her own pure and spotlcss life.
When child she was remarkable for those
gentle and aniable qualities, which in maturer
life, so much adorned the character of the wife,
the mother, and the christian. At an carly age
she is known to have felt concern on tie subject
Of religion and to have had an anxious desire To-
unite with the people Of God, but on account OF
her tender years, tfis was delayed. In the sum-
mcr Of 1881 she became q member Of the Bap-.
tist Church, and the writer Of this feeble tribute
to her memory, retains an impressive recollection
Of her sweet and placid countenance as he, with
others, went down with her into the water, to be
"burcd with Christ in baptism" The profess
sion, thus made, was well illustrated by her sub
sequcnt life. She gave the highest evidence that
she was Christian, in the faithful discharge of
her duties. She felt deep solicitude for the
spiritual interests of her children, and employed
much Of her time in reading the word ofseiod:
and in cndcavoring to impress its truths upon:
their minds In ali the social and domestic feia-
tons of life, her conduct was so kind and afec.
tionate, as not only to render her the object OF
devoted attachment in the fumily circle, but to
secure the esteem and confidence of large num-!
her of friends. For several years her health
wos bad, and for some months before her death ;,
she expressed the belief that the time of her de-
parture was near ut hand, but in oil her suffer-
ings no murmur escaped her, and whilst she felt
and expressed o natural and anxious concern
about her family; her friends were struck with
the strength of that Faith which che manifested,
in rcsicning them and herself into tho hands Of
God. On her death bed, she exhibited that COM
posure and tranquility which the Christian alone
can feel, md having bid farewell to her husband
and children, the last word which escaped her
lips on earth was the name Of that Saviour in
whom she hnd believed, and who was doubtless
soon to receive her to himself in bliss above -5rTl
The deceased left husband and six children
to mourn their bereavement, but the rcmem-
brance of her virtues and the confidence thatihe
has gone to her eternal rest, should mitigate the
grief which is natural at the loss Of such friend.
To the grace and mercy of God we commend
the afflicted husband and children Of our de-
parted sister may her partner in: this altc ibct
come more earnestly engaged to- share WIN hef'
the joys Of that life which is bcyondthe grave,
and may the example md pious instruction 'ot
their Mother, lead her children 10 that saviour
who was her comfort in life ndsher support m m

ATTEMPT TO AssAss1SvrE THE TURKISH
SULTAN-A letter from Constantinople, bear
ing 10 date, appears in the German paper,
Weser Gazette, on the 18th .ult.,s which
states that conspiracy had been discovered
to poison the Sultan. At the bottom Of it
was his own brother, assisted by Ulcmas.
The plan was, to corrupt the Sultan's doctor,
who was to mix poison in his medicine, for
a considerable sum of money. The medical
attendant revealed the plot. The chief con-
spirators fled. Several parties concerned in
the scheme were apprehended and pat 10
death. This news wants confirmation.
