A large proportion Of the human race
sufe- more or less from Yenereal diseases
or the concOmitanta. Tho taint, once &C.
quired, is often left to lark IN the blood and
manifests itself through succeeding genera
tons. The great fault of the age immedi-
atelT preceding this was that this frightful
clsss of diseases were combatted only il
their symptoms, which being ones subdued,
the patient wss declared cured though the
deadly virus was stiu unexpunged from the
system. Fortunately for humanity, better
state Of things bas been augurated, and
the increased knowledge acquired by the
foremost ia the ranks Of medical praeti-
TONERS enables them 10 strike at the very
root Of the disorder. Prominent among
these is DR.. COLEMAN, who has devoted the
labor of his life TO the discovery Of the
means of totally eradicating the veneral
faint, and leaving the patient free rs before
Infection. That he has succeeded, his
thousands of former patients testify; that
he will still succeed, his large present prac-
tice plainly proves. DR.. COLEHAs ID one
among the very few specialists nov practic-
ing who ara able to DO what they promise
work perfect cure. lie can do this, and
that in q safe and speedy manner, without
danger or exposure. Ills office IL located

Correspondence Of the Nashville U-ion.
On Sunday, 18th inst, at about II O.
clock, the steamer Science, No. 2, land
cd at Hawsville, small town on the
Kentucky side of the Ohio river, for
the purpose Of taking on board some
twenty-five or thirty contrabands who
had enlisted in the United States ser
vice, and seeing quite a number Of the
citizens on the shore and wharf-boat We
could not define the cause Of this great
coneourse Of people, until after the con-
trabands had come on board the boat.
just about the time the boat was MAX
ing preparations to shove of, a man by
the name of Sanders, rebel citizen,
came rushing up, with a Deringer pi.-
toll in each hand, cooked, demanding
his negro boy who had come on board,
without the consent Of the enlisting
officer, being TOO young to pass muster.
After some words and threats By San
ders, tie officer told him to come on
board and take his negro-that he did
not want him, and had not enlisted
him Sanders caught hold Of the boy
and pulled him OF the boat, the negro
making no resistance whatever
We an thought now the press s. over
but Just as the boat moved off the citi-
gems commenced to draw their revolt
yors, and in an instant the shore was all
ablaze with the fring-some fifty or
sixty Of them firing, curing, and swear
ing that they would bosrd the boat at
al hazards, rescue the negroes, or burn

ually defeated Three Of the officers
