HuMoR IN THE EYEs.-There is probably no
part of the physical organization more tender
or sensitive than the eye, and when hupor once
settles on the delicate organs of sight, blindness
is sure to follow. There are instances where
persons, having become blind, have applied TO
oculsts in vain for relief, the professional gen
tlemen being ignorant Of the hidden cause of
the trouble. "Kennedy's Medical Discovery"
has effected many cures where the patients
were totally blind from the above cause; and
We mention the fact at the present time to In
duce any who may be suffering from any trouble
with their eyes to try this wonderful discovery,
and not these only, but any who may be troubled
with humors Of any kind. 4t..,f.

The Cleveland Leader states that on Thurs
day evening oficer J T, snALLEY, Of GAINESVILLE,
brought 10 Cleveland man named THOMAS
BnHor.a blind man, charged with marrying
three women, also blind, since the 10th of Sep,
tember last. On the 10Th Of September he was
married at the American House, Cleveland, by
Esquire FoLJAMBE, to a lady Of Huron, Erie
county, at which time he assumed the name of
WIN. GIDEAu. Seven days after, assuming the
name Of GrBEAur, he married young lady Of
Cleveland, Rev. DR.. SrARKEy, of that city, off,
ciatng. On the next day, September 18th, he
left Cleveland, taking with him all the clothing
and valuables Of both ladies. From the first
he obtained over two hundred dollars In money,
jewelry, clothing, etc. From the second he
took siriy cents in money, a gold ring, and VAL
liable articles Of wearing apparel.
N After leaving Cleveland, he proceeded to Ma
rietta, where, under the alias of August Cooke,
he succeeded in again being "united in the holy
bonds of wedlock" Here he enjoyed a'honey.

wardrobe, he suddenly disappeared, He was
pursued, and after being tracked to Columbus,
Parkersburg, and other points, was arrested at
the house of his mother at Mt Sterling, near
Zanesville, at which point he had formerly re-
sided, and where he had buried a wife but few
days before his marriage at Cleveland. With
his neghbors at Mt. Sterling he has bad
reputation, being charged with dishonesty in
various forms. Il
BisHof Is graduate Of the Ohio State Insu-
tute for the Blind, at Columbus, as are all OF
the ladies whom he has succeeded in duping,
and there he made their acquaintance a few
years since. The ladies are represented as OF
unimpeachable character, and are deeply SYM
pathized with in their misfortune.
Upon being arraigned before Justice Fol-
JAMpE, ,on Friday morning, the accused waived
an examination. Bail was fixed at 81 500, in
default Of which he was committed TO Jail.
Il Is rumored that BISHOP has wife and
child living in Cincinnati, but this does not ap-
pear to be definitely ascertained.

The South Carolina Commissioners and the
President of the United States
WAsHrnorNN, Dec. %. 1860

WAsHINaTNN, Dec. 90, 1860
Sir: We have the honor to transmit to you a
COPY of the full powers from the Convention ot
the people of South Carolina, under which We
are i'authorized and empowered to treat with
the Government of the United States for the
delivery of tho forts, magazines, lighthouses,
and other real estate, with their appurtenances,
In the limits of South Carolina; and also for an
apportionment of the public debt, and for a di-
vision of all other property held by the Govern
ment Of the United States, as agent of the Con
fedrated States of which South Carolina was
recently member, and generally to negotiate
40 90 oil other meas6res and arrangements
proper to be made and adopted 10 the existing
relation of the parties, and for the continuance
of peace aud amity between this Common
wealth and the Government at Washington"
To the execution Of this trust it is our duty to
furnish you, as We now do, with an official copy
of the Ordinance of Secession, by which the
State of South Carolina has resumed tho pow
ers che delegated to the Government Of the
United States, and has declared her perfect sov
ereignty and independence.
Il would also have been our duty to have in
formed you that we were ready to negotiate
with you upon all such questions as are neces-
sarily raised by tho adoption Of this Ordinance,
and that we were prepared to enter upon this
negotiation, with the earnest desire to avoid all
unnecessary and hostile collision, and so to inau.
gurate our new relations as to secure mutual re-
spect, general advantage, and future Of good
will and harmony, beneficial to all the parties
concerned. ...-
But the events of the last twenty four hours
render such an assurance impossible. We
came here the representatives Of an authority
which could, at any time within the past sixty
days, have taken possession of the forts in
Charleston harbor, but which, upon pledges Civ.
en- In a manner that we cannot doubt, determ-
ined te trust to your honor rather than to Its
own power. Since our arrival here an officer Of
the United States, acting as we are assured, not
only without, but against, your orders, has dis
mantled one fort and occupied another-thus
tion of affairs under which we came.
Unil these circumstances are explained in a
manner which relieves US Of all doubt as to tho
spirit in which these negotiations shall be con
Quoted, We are forced to suspend all discussion
as to any arrangements by which our mutual
interests may be amicsbly adjusted.
And, in conclusion, we would urge upon you
the immediate withdrawal Of the troops fr ON
tho harbor of Charleston, Under present cir
cumstances, they are n standing menace which
render negotiation impossible, and, as our re-
cent experience shows, threatens speedily to
bring to bloody issue questions which ought
to be settled with temperance and Judgment
