MIRACLES NEVER CEASE!
THE LATEST PRODIGY OF SCIENCE

Great truths are indestructible. When
Jenner averred that vaccine innoculation was
a safeguard against the small pox, the 'facul-
ty'' sneered. Forty-five years later, the world
laughed at Daguerre's first announcement
that he could fix a shadow and render it as
imperishable as substance. Even Morse's
telegraph was regarded by thousands as a
myth, until tn. first line was put up in 1874.
Now vaccination is universal, daguerreotypes
are as common as wood-cuts, and we talk by
telegraph with almost as much facility as
across a friends table.
Such is necessarily the progress of a grand
discovery or invention in an age like ours; and
of this irresistible onward movement of the
useful and beneficient in practical science, we
have a still more striking example In the
worldwide popularity of Holloway's great
remedies. If we mistake not, they are scarce
ly older as an invention than the photograph
and the electric telegraph, and yet they are
familiar to half the human race. Tn discov-
cries of Daguerre and Morse have not been
applied throughout the whole area ofcivilIza-
ton : but barbarian and semi-barbarian races,
upon whom the light of Christianity has not
: vet dawEed, have experienced the benefits
of these preparations. When they were
first introduced to public notice through the
columns of the English press, about twenty
years ago, some of the medical magnates Of
the day scoffed at them, as their prototypes
of the days of Jenner and Harvey scofted a.
vaccination and the theory of the circulation
of the blood. But how is it now? The name
; of Holloway has been rendered illustrious BY
the spontaneous testimony of countless mul
titudes. The voice of skepticism has beef
hushed, and the s~pecious argument OF PROBES

re- Among the many preparations now be-
fore the public as certain cures for the Fever and
Ague, none have been received with such especial
favor as that known as DR.. J. HosTE7TER's CELE-
BRATED "SToMAcH BTTTERs." This tonic has been
circulated, and its many virtues promulgated
throughout the States, and every day the propri-
etors are greeted with the intelligence of a dreadful
case vanquished by the use Of their celebrated
"Bitters." In our principal cities, there are but
few families who neglect the "Bitters' in furnish
ing their Medicine closets. As a tonic, it is both
mild and agreeable to the taste, AID stimulating
in its action upon the system. For q certain cure
Of Fever and Ague, Flatulency, Dyspepsia, and
all other morbid diseases it is surely unequalled.

DIED,

In Butler county, Ala, at the residence of his
son, R.. II. Kirkpatrick, on the morning Of April
3rd, 1859, Mr.. James Kirkpatrick, aged rs years
9 months and 19 days. He had been for many
years a consistent member of the Presbyterian
Church. He leaves a large circle of friends aud
relatives to mourn his death. But we have good
reason to believe that their loss is his infinite
gain.--CoM.

SUMMARY OF NEWS.


The prospect of a war between France and
is considered certain. A letter writ
ten by an American gentleman now on the
Of Europe, and who is said to be in
a position to observe correctly the current of
affairs, says that "in spite of the Congress
to be assembled, there will be no peace
France nor Austria wants peace
The peace party of Europe is confined to the
Derby Ministry in England, to the anti-Aus-
trian Regency party in Berlin, and to the
Stock Exchange. The Derby Ministry is now
powerless. Russia will remain neutral until
Austria is attacked at home; and Russia
aims at nothing but the humiliation of Aus
tria.
War is necessary, even n a financial point
Of view. 1t is the only means of avoiding
national bankruptcy, the only decent excuse
for not paying the interest on the public
debt in Austria, or making a new loan in
France. The war, however, may be confn-
ed to Austria and France. In no case will
the Emperor of France provoke a coalition"
The WHEAT CRoP.-This crop, which was
so likely a few weeks since, now promises
nothingl 1t is ruinedl The rainy, cool
weather has been the cause of rust, and at
this time the crop is at least injured seventy
five per cent. Within the last few days we
have seen several wheat farms in Chowan,
Perquimons and ~Pasquotank counties, and
many Of them are almost red with rust,
which seems to be animalculae covering the
blades.-Edsnton Express.
FIT FOR THF OFFIcR.-We learn that Mr.. j..
r. S. Bond, editor and proprietor of the Men
dota Press, Illinois, has lately been elected
overseer of the poor. He says that his long
experience in the printing business gives him
the most admirable qualification for that
office.
A SMALL Pox PANIc.-Dr. j. j. Boswell,
of Columbus, Ga, recently proceeded to Co.
lumbia Ala, together with several nurses,
for the purpose of attending to certain small
pox patients. At Fort Gaines, he says, he
succeeded in purchasing a batteau, which
with his two assistants, he rowed about &C
miles down the river. The people whom ht
met on his trip, were much frightened, les
the small pox would spread over the country
and in some localities fed from his own ap
pearance, as from a wild beast of prey. Ii
fact the bridges are taken up in some place
to prevent the passage of persons through tn
country.

i leon ], ''still lives" at the age of 76. He wa
