Omripotent Truth.

Truth is mighty and will prevail" 1t
is the antagonist Of error, which it will sup
plant and place under the heel. A man with
the mental stature of a god may battle brave
ly for error, yet his armor is cleaved asun-
der by the invincible sword Of Truth.
Travel back over the highway of Time
and we find that it was once a crime, punish
able with imprisonment and torture, to as
sert that the earth moved around the SUM-
It is now the accepted philosophy of Swans,
peasants and schoolboys. In this, and a
thousand other ways, truth has declared its
omnipotcncc over human opposition, and it
needs only time and its own inherent power
TO triumph over all obstacles and one of its
greatest and most sublime triumphs will be
to dethrone the tyrant Intemperance and
Danish rum from the nations of the earth as
n curse and a fiery scourge. As fruits of
this triumph, beggary will be banished from
the land-red hand crime will no longer
stalk forth with dripping blade-empty pris-
ons viii echo back the song Of the idle keep
ers-the grim gallows will be robbed Of more
than half Of its writing prey-and the wild
shrek Of the mailman will cease to startle
the midnight quiet. Do you believe the
reign of King Rum will ever be brought to
an end? We do in good faith. Truth is its
antagonist, and 50 powerful is it, that if even
one of its blessed rays falls among men, it
will grow in magnitude and strength-wi.
der and de~eper-brighter and higher-until
it swallows up confused error-the last YES
tige and shadow. A wise man, imbued
with q love Of truth, once saw an apple fal
from n trec-thousands had witnessed tn,
same bcfore-but he reasoned upon it, anC
from that trivial circumstance he deduced
theory explaining the physical harmony o
the universe. He comprehended and laugh
that the same principle which caused the ap
pie to drop down to the earth, and not fly VI
to the sun, held the earth itself in its orbi
and guided the planets in their illimite,
whirl. Such is the power Of truth give i
but a foothold, and it is never subverted, bu
sooner or later it viii correct the errors of
thousand bye-gone years. The principles o
the Temperance reform are based upon truth
and although thousands may oppose, yet it
sweep is onward, and as the rays widen an
brighten, the gloom Of its antagonistic princi
pie falls back to its native night. Genera
tons yet unborn will wonder hat any pee
pie were ever so blind as to legalize any sys
TEN so full Of error and ~injustic as the trai
fc in Intoxicating liquors and they vii
read tho horrors Of the infamous system wit
n shudder unknown to us. We confident
hope for triumph sooner or later, and W
battle on. y

wore, consumed.
Mr.. Everett, of Nashville, also lost several
hundred dollars in money.
The Adams Express Company had very
valuable freight on the train. Several cases
of watches and jewelry. ahdseveraa thdusand
dollars in newly engraved notes for one Of
the Wilmington Banks These, however,
had never been signed, and the loss will be
%trifing.
THF CAUSE OF THE AceIDENT'-AH attrib-
ute the accident to the unsoundness of the
tressle bridge, tn. wood in many portions
being much decayed.-Mr. Rice says a gen.
tleman residing in the vicinity of Margaretts-
vile stated, at the scene of the disaster on
Monday, that fears relative to the safety of
the bridge had been entertained for twelve
months past"
The Norfolk papers attribute this loss of
life and property to "some unprincipied
scoundrels, but for what object it is impos-
sible to divine" The Herald says that on
Friday the tressle-work was "thoughly ex-
amined and pronounced to be perfectly safe
and in good order, and on Saturday a very
heavy freight train of forty cars passed over
without damaging the structure"

t FITS! FITS!

Persons laboring under this distressing malady
will find DR.. Hance's Epieptic Pills to be the only
remedy ever discovered for curing Epilepsy or Fall
ing Fits. These Pills possess a specific action on
the nervous system and although prepared cspe-
cially for the purpose of curing Fits, they will be
found of especial benefit to all persons afflicted
with weak nerves, or whose nervous system has
been FRUSTRATED or shattered from any cause what
ever. The d~yspeptic patient, whose stomach has
lost the power of duly converting food INTO a life
sustaining element, is relieved by a single course OF
the extraordinary Pills. The gastric fluid re-ac
quires it's solvent power, and the crude nutrimcnt
which was a load and a burden to the sufferer,
while his digestive organization was paralyzed ant
unstrung. becomes under the wholesome revolution
created in the system, the basis of strength, actiy
ity and health.

A Limited Evil.

"WnY," says one, " do you allot so much
Of your space to the evils of intempcrance,
when there are so many other wrongs that
should be corrected :? Drunkenness is only
n limited evil" Limited its bounds are
the bounds of the earth-whereyer human
shadow has fallen there too has fallen the
dark wing shade of this rapacious %vulture.
Ask the Past what has been its history, and
n voice deep as ages tells of cities and ma
tions that have been swallowed up. Ask
the Present, and it points its weird finger to
bloated men and begging women. Ask the
Future, and u panorama of Keeling hosts,
murdered men, bloody suicides and scenes
of woe passes before the meltal ken. 1t is
limited only to the haunts Of men--limited
TO their homes and to the hills and shores
where human foot has trodden. So limited
is it, that there is scarce q ireside in all the
land that it has not clouded-a heart that it
has not wrung with agouy-an eye that it
has not tear-bedimmed. Who so blind as
not to see the monster daily entering the holy
sanctuary of home and crushing the dearest
idols worshipped there, and scattering its
hopes and joys rs the fierce wind scatters the
leaves Of the hills ? winds, alas that are
not " tempered to the shorn lamb" Who
has not seen the curse of drunkenness fall
like n scathing bolt from the heavens and
secth and char all that was beautiful in the
poor victim, sinking him down brutalizet
into the grave Of the felon or sot? Aud yet
all this is not to be compared with the brigh
gold that and laws may wiring
dripping with blood, from wretchedness am
human woe
Ask no more why we have so much to sa,
against this particular evil; the magnitude
Of the curse demands it, and demands NOR
than we can perform. We would that W
had more aid the tongues and pens ofman.
Of our patriotic statesmen arc even silent up
on this point, aud why? While the high
way from the ballot-box to official station j
paved with drunken men, he would be q sill
demagoguc indeel, who would not desire
goodly pavement.

The Old Mill.

/ loved the brilliant wave that swan
Through quiet meadows round the mill,
The sleepy pool above the dam
The pool beneath it never still,
The meal sacks on the whitened floor,
The dark round Of the dripping wheel,
The very air about the door
Made misty by the floating meal.
One can almost see the turning wheels and
the 1our-dusted miller in the above fragment
from Tennyson. An old mill always has
something poetical about it, and awakens,
even in the mind of an old man, visions of
bye-gone youth. There is the fume and the
foaming water, and ivy clad banks shading
the shoal where the speckled fish turned up
their glistening sides to the sun. There is
the pool where the r~ollicksome boys swan
and played pranks and there is the same
old mealy miller leaning ON his elbows look
ing at the rainbows made by his dripping
wheel, rolling lazily in the sun. And there
is the honey-suckle hill looming up from the
waters edge where somebody gathered flow
ers for somebody and sang them a song Of
love. There is something dreamy and po
etical lingering about the old mill.

HoHoway's Pills a certain Remedy for
Dropsy. Charles Hutchinson 49, of Bur-
lington, Vermont, was for fifteen months, a
sad victim to this complaint, so bad was he
one part of the time, that the water actually
oozed through the pores ofthe skin, and thrice
per day change of apparel became necessary.
Every time his doctor called he expected to
find him dead, and in fact gave his friends
no hopes of his recovery his sister who had
derived greatbene6t by the use of Holloway's
Pills, begged him, as a favor to her, to try
them fortunately for him he did not refuse,
and they soon produced a change for the
better, in four weeks he was again attending
to business having thoroughly got rid of the
disorder, and in the most excellent health
and spirits. These Pills work wonders in
liver and bilious complaints.
