A WIYDFALL FOR A BANK The New

The great, rich institution, the Louisiana
State Bank, whose stock is quoted at ls0-
which has three millions and half specie
in its vaults, and nearly six millions invested
in paper, loans, discounts, pledges suddenly
turned up the other day the legatee of
5 100000, bequeathed by a gentleman in
Mississippi, who is an entire stranger to
the bank, never having had any transaction
with it.
The circumstances are these: A rich old
planter named Matthews. desirous of spiting
his relations, left his property, exceeding
$l50,00O in value, TO his illegitimate chill
dren by a colored woman, and in the event
of their disability to Inherit, to the Louis
lana State Bank. The will contained few
small legacies to his brothers and sisters
Under the law of Mississippi, the colored
children cannot Inherit, and the Bank
seems to have a pretty clear prospect for
this property. His white relations, however,
have commenced to contest it, and the
Bank has employed counsel to maintain its
rights.

IWyHE P.fST HH.N.TER .H.V.D SPRIN,

IL so far, have been very wet ones, causing many
of our rivers to overflow their banks, back
ing up the water in the creeks and bayous, and
flooding to a considerable extent the bottom
lands when the rivers recede, which may be ex-
pected soon, then the large surface of decayng veg
etabe matter exposed to the scorchng rays OF the
summer sun, produces the malaria, which proves
so fatal in its course, sweeping whole States, and
sparing neither age nor sex in its conquering
march.
After a residence of more than twenty years in
the middle and Southern States, think have
discovered a medicine which, to a certain extent,
is preventative of the attacks Of bilious lever,
ague, &C., and rs such we recommend our Magnolia
Whisky.
We wish the public to understand that we are
not urging upon them the of strong Liquors as
beverage. We and always have been, opposed to
their being used in that way, but II people will use
them as such, let them have by all means "a
pure article. that Will keep them i'm health, and
longthen instead of shortening their lives. We pro-
pose to soil always pure and unadulterated Liquors
for medicinal purposes, and little for the stom-
ach's sake, if required, and will challenge an in
specton by the beat chemists in this or any other
country, to find any impurity or adulteration in
the whisky branded by us, '4Allis & IIowe's Mag
nolia 1t is warranted, il is distilled from the
cora, rye, or wheat, with slight addition of good
cistern water. We have no doubt many persons
have beeA ruined in health if not actually killed py
drinking bad whisky, the greater the reason that

oHA MACHINE.

Patented July "a, 1855.
This Machine is pronounced by competent judges
10 be superior 10 all others before the public, for
general family use, and what will doubtless sur
prise and rejoice many woman's heart, is, that
while for ordinary usage il surpasses in practical
utility the highest priced machines, the cost Of it
will not exceed thirty-fiye dollars. .t t-.r
The subscriber having purchased the exclusive
right to manufacture, sell, and use this machine in
this and other counties of South western Indiana,
respectfully invites all persons, Ladies especially,
who are i'm want of first class Sewing Machine,
TO call aud examine the merits of the Moores Pat
with IT, they will prefer this toal others ire
spectiye of its price.
The following is n summary Of some of the lead
ing eXcellencies of this machine
I. It combines durability, simplicity, and pTao.
ticability in higher degree than any other now in
Use. - 81
2 In point Of strength, elasticity, and endurance,
its stitch is not excelled by any machine yet invent
ed. Each stitch Is locked or fastened 10y the
chine itself, that there is need of drawing the
thread through a loop or using needle to fasten
theend of To prevent it's rayeling ripping.
Such is the nature of the stitch that if every third
one be cut, the work will neither rip nor ravel.
3. lt sews from two common spools without re-
winding, aud sews in the very best manner, coarse
and fine goods with linen, cotton, or silk thread.
L. Ii has the best and most reliable feed ever
constructed, and does not break needles.
3. The space around the needle and beneath the
needle arm is unusually large, and what is espe-
cially noticeable, not drop of oil is needed the
part of the machine, in contact with the goods.
6. Its simplicity is such that il he understood
and operated with but little instruction, and il so
cheap beautiful and useful that family can well
afford to be without one, therefore come right
along, FOR yourself, and if you like the machine
make one your own without delay, and my word
for il, after few days usage il will be the last
ticle OF furniture the owner will be willing to part
with for what it cost. II. w. STAFFORD.
