wonderro, phenomenon.

Wonderful phenomenon.
NEGROES Scared JVhite..-We chroni-
,1sd IN Tuesday The killing of an ele.
Vim, recentlv escaped from menage.
-, We regret To learn that before he
va. XII d he did great damage. and ut
,e,Iv ruined one planter ia Kinds county,
Miss. Passing through his plantation,
the huge beast came across two stacks Of
Cpdder-one of Inc stacks he devoured
insanity, while he hoisted the other on
lis lrunk, aud bearing it before him,
shield for him, he marched on in sollta.
~ GRANDEUR, lie soon reached a point
where the negroes OF the plantation were
taking their dinner, when The unusual sight
which met their eyes so frightened them
that they alIturned whue! When their
fears snbsided, finding that they were al
whue men and women, they deliberately
walked off, and left the owner Of the plan
ta,ion without solitary darkey.
This remarkable phenomenon may
seem rather strange 10 the increduous,
but if any one doubts the truth of our
statement, a highly respectable gentle
man OF This city IS fully prepared to sub
sIantiate il IN every particular. We have
often heard of persons hair being instant
" turned from sudden and oveIpowcring
fear, but do not remember before TO have
heard OF an Africans skin turning white
from ihe same cause. While we sin.
cerely symralhise with the owner of the
negroes in his severe loss, we earnestly
hope that his remarkable case will be
thoroughly investigated by Philosophers.

Germ To the victims Of ernptive, Cancsrnus,
scrOfulOuS, and other external diseases
that hey have ihe genuine Ointment, and
equally important 10 dyspepiics, bilious
patients, and al sufferers from internal
complaints tina, they have the true Pills,
we recommend careful scrutiny Ill all
cases.
HoHowryS Pills NO dwelling in
any district infested with fever and sgue,
or any phrase OF remlitent or intermittent
fever, should ever be without this power
full ioqic and anl-bIious medicine. A
few doses break up the chlls. and com
p.ereiy crush out the prinviple of the dis
ease. Arsenic and quinine are often
used to check fever and sgue, but re-
lapse always superveres. The seat OF
the complaint is in the bile aud In the
Hood. and the only preparation in exis-
tence which will inevitably purge out the
milSmqtic virus from the secretions and
the circulation, in Hnlloway's great in
ternal remedy. As a tonic. corrective,
and Alternative, it stands alone.
