arrested and confined in Jail under the

ccived no injury but broken leg.

Tho Record of a Triumph

There is no little consolation in the
thought that, however the impostor may
flourish for season, he cannot long con-
tinue to delude mankind. How many men
contriye to acquire Il brief and fasl,y rep
utation, and then sink into dsrepute and
oblivion This is especially true of the
prctendcrs to medical skill, who, in an age
when diseases abound, seek to inveigle
themselves into the confidence of the public,
and to impose upon it with their noxious
nostrums. We confess that, years ago,
when VIC first heard of the universal celeb
rity Professor Holloway, we distrustcd his
lofty claims, and arrogatcd to ourselves n
superiority of discern,nent which would
not allow him to entrap our Judgement
Most heartily do we beg his pardon for the
unjust imputation. A careful study of his
system convinced us that we were indeed
mistaken, and that the world, to do him
justice, should Immediately, as it undoubt-
edly will hereafter, rank him foremost
among its benefactors. He has solved the
mystery of human diseases, and proved
that all medical treatment, from the time of
Hunter, has been based upon false primiscs.
Jenncr did not effect greater revolution
in the method Of dealing with the small
pox, than DIR. Holloway has done in the
ordinary medical ruotinc of the present
day.
The human blood is not a mere fluid,
coursing through the veins and arteries, and
partaking of the mere qualities of other
fluids. 1t is-startlng as the statement
may sentative. 1t is, in plain words,
"Me life Of man." All physiological dis
cases, such as indigestion, dcranged kid
neys, liver, heart lungs, stomach, all impure
secretions i'll the body, and large majority
of epidemic and endemic diseases have their
origin, or, ut least their exciting cause in
the impure state Of the blood. Cleanse
that and keep it cleansed, and no sickness
can PROSTATE, or even assai the system.
This splendid discovered has given u Iustre
to Professor l1olloway's name, transccn,line
the renown of heroes aud statesmen. We
do not wonder at the great fame he has ac-
quired in Europe, Asia, Africa and Autra-
liza. We rejoice that he has visited our
own country and opened an establishment
in New York, which will be very temple
of health to our own citizens. Ills Pills
and Ointment arc the most wonderful sana-
tives which science and skill have yet pro.

WRITTEN FOR TILE ABBEvILLE BANNER,
Dry Feet, versus Muddy Streets

The sharp remark Of Rev. SYDNEY SMITH.
of witty memory, is recalled to my mind
by the condition Of the highways of our
Abbeville Village. After short absence
and sojourn in the country, the Reverend
gentleman was asked how he had enjoyed
the country, he startingIy and hcrcticalIy
answered: Why, as you ask me, not at
all, I found it very green and very nasty"
Being myself asked the same question by
friend, l had to answer that l found the
country like dry bones as to the forest, and
tho ground an almost impossible sea of
sticky, red mud, without spcck of green,
and this, we all know, is incontrovertibly
and lamentably SO.
In these our days of Improvements, civ
ilization and comfort, that there should be
in South Carolina, (where the very proud
est knights Of chivalry reside,) such an un-
washed and muddy village as Abbeville, is
wonderful. The means ought to be raised
by incorporating the place, and tax prop
erty to pave and improve the highways, by
raising the. rents proportionably, and these
facilities will bring more purchasers to the
store-keepers, as they are we'll aware. Plant
the whole square with ornamental trees,
form drains, and macadamize the whole
square, and principal streets and avenues,
and 1 1ensure that even the health Of the
village will improve--though generally a
healthy one.
We ought elect officers that will have
at heart to carry out some such improve
ment If every property ownor were re-
quired to have good and paved foot walk,
high and dry, along their property, that of
itself would be a great comfort. Let the
people 60 to, work and do it; and they will
pe repaid for the outlay. J.T. r.

Il Joke.-A Washington correspondent
tells the following Joke on Senator Cass:
a stranger at Guys Hotel, whose room
was not what he wanted, meeting Gen.
Cass (who is thought to favor GUY in the
hall Of the Hotel, commenced abusing him
roundIy for not giving him better room.
Cass remarked, "Sir, you don't know to
whom You are speaking, am Gen. Cass,
OF Michigan" and passed out of the hall.
The CUES: was thunder struck. In few
moments he saw the old General again,
entering at another door, and running up
to him he SLAPPED him familarIy on the
shoulder, saying Il have Id good
joke to tell you, the richest thing out,
met old Cass just now, and thinking it was
you, | commenced cur<ing him roundIy
about my room" "And you have met
old Cass again, sir - dryly remarked the
great Michigan Senator, much to the con-
fusion of the mistaken guest. and to the
great merrmcht Of the crowd who hap
peEed to ovcrhear the conversation.

Sharpe's ItiFe.-Ihis recently invented
weapon, if it possesses onc-half Of the pow
er and capacity claimed for it 10y its pro-
prletor, is destined soon to supersede every
other weapon for warike purposes now in
existence. 1t is the most efficacious and
terrible firearm in existence. The small
carbinc now used by the United States
mounted men throws Il ball with deadly
accuracy one quarter Of mile, and can be
fired len times per minute. 1t is not COM
plicated i'll structure, is easily cleaned, and
suffers no injury from wet weather Mr.
Sharpe is now preparing models for four
new species of his weapon, namely: A
small pocket pistol, calculated to throw a
Minnie ball one hundred yards a cavalry
pistol, with range OF five hundred Yards
rifle suitable for foo:men, will, n range of
one mile; and large gun to throw u two
ounce ball or n small shell one mile and
half, or us far as a man and horse can be
seen to advantage.
With this latter weapon Mr.. s. declares
nc can set ON fire house or a ship at a
distance Of nearly two miles, and prevent
tue use of field artillery by killing the l,or-
scs before the guns are brought within good
range. This rifle, in the hands of good
marksmap, is equal to ten muskcts, bayo-
nets and all for place man six rods dis
tant with rnusket and a bayonct, and be-
fore lie can bring the bayonet into use, the
rifle can be loaded and discharged ten times.
They carry ball with great precision and
force. Mr.. Sharpe intends these rifles to
become national weapon, and should

chase the patent, the country would be
