WHAT DOES IT Mean 7-The New O-le2n'
Times, of the q, says: We have some rlti''
er startling intelligence from the Seat o. G"S-
ernment and from source %bieh ieaYes not
a doubt Of its authenticity. Wien the Pi'st
United States Ccl6rej Iniantry were raus'ar-
ed out of service, large number Of them re-
NAMED in and around Washington. These
ex s.lders have kept up their organization
under the name OF Lincoln Reserve CVrp',
of which one Capt. Daniel X. jenkins is com.
.nander of the first battalion. On the evt'-
ing Of September 4, a secre. meeting as
sle!d, at which atoat 100 Of thes: men signed
a resolstion Offering their services to Gov.
Wells, OF louisiana, to aid in his struggle
n for liberty and justice" Capt. jenkins was
instructed to write Gov. Wells to this effect,
stating that the Lincoln Reserves" were
a well armed and disciplined, and would serve
without remuneration"-excepting, we sup
pose, what they could confiscate, la Butler.
What does this proposition indicate? Do
the radical politicians intend getting up all
other riot in New Orleans? Are the loyal
Louisianiang' and Northern political leaders
not satisfied with the blood they have caused
to be spilled in Our strpets2 Do they wish to
add to the unfortunate calamity they brought
upon our people by further tu,pult and disor-
der? Certainly this looks as if there was
some foul plot Matching.

NotaLeeaI Tender.

In the Court of Common Pleas for York Dis
trict, Judge .Aldrch presiding, an important case
WIS tried, as we learn from the Enquirer, Of
Thursday. 1t was briefly this The Sheriff, in a
certain case, refused to accept United States legal
tender notes in discharge Of an execution against
the defendants, and a rule was issncd against him.
Thecase WIS ably argued by counsel on each
side, and Judge Aldrich decided unhesitat;agy,
that the United States Treasury notes purportiug
to be legal tender are not a legal tender for
-deJts'cf any description, arising upon contracts
made either prcuiOus to or since he passage ofthe
currency Act 1y Congress. He conceived that the
Constitution of TIE United States, as we'll as the
laws Of this State, forbade any such conclusion.
This is an Important decision to the people Of
this State, aud as notice Of appeal has bcsn given,
the action of tho higher court will be looked for
ward to with interest.

A New and Grand Epoch in Medicine.
DE-. MAoa1EL is the founder of new Medical

Dr.. MAGdIEL is the founder Of new Medical
System The quantitarians, whose vast internal
doses enfeeblc the stomach md parayze the bow
els, must give precedence to the man who restores
health and appetite, with from one to two of his
extraordinary Pills, and cures the most virulent
sores with box or so Of his wonderful and all
healing Salye. These two great specifics of the
Doctor are fast superseding all the stereotyped
nostrums Of the day. Extraordinary cures by
Maggels Pills and Sllve have opened eyes
of the public to the nefficiency Of the (sp calcd)
remedies of others, and upon which people have
so long bindly depended. Maggiel's Pills are
not of the class that ore swallowed by the dozen,
and of which every box full taken creates m ab-
soute necessity for anpthpr. Ono or two of Mag
gel's Fills sufcos to place the bowels in perfect
order, tone the stomach, create an appetite. and
render the spirit, light and buoyant! There is
no gripping, and no reaction in. the form of con-
stipation. If tho liver is affected, its functions
arc restored and if tho nervous system is feeble,
it is invigoratod. This last quality makes the
medicines very desirable for the wants of delicate
females. Ulccrous and cruptvc diseases are lite
rally cxtipguishsd by the disinfcctant power ol
Maggiels Salve. In fact, it is hsre announced
that MaggiePs Billions, Dyspeptie and
DiarrhGa Pills cure where oil others fail.
While for Burns, Scalds, Chiblains, Cuts, and all
abrasons Of the slin, Maggiel's Salve is in

Anotter BLOODY Outrage,

At eleven o'clock on the night Of Thursday,
the lth of the present month, two men, one
noun ted on u horse, the other, on n mule, roue
up to the front gate of Mrs. Henry c. HERLoNG,
at tho homestead of the late Rev. HENRY c. HER
Lose at Mount Willing, and chilled to Mr.. Jso.
E.M.RrIs, living with Mrs. HERLoNG, and over
scein, for her, to come out to them. He did not
know them or, at al events, did not recognize
thum. Under some plausible pretext they on
deavored to inLuce Linn to accompany them some
dist .uce from the gate. This he refused to do,
and, turning to enter the. hoIs., was shot at BY
both the aforesaid men. One of the shots, sp-
pa.ently out Of n navy revolver, entered his back
below the right arm and came out above the LETT
breast The wound WINS yery severe one, and
Mr.. MAErINs life stiIl hangs upon.a thread. AZ

petrators of this outrage has as yet been discov-

lightful drives through the beautiful Sand Hills,

and which does SO much credit to the city; and
nothing about the ssugary glories of Mrs. Fred

Union Meeting at Mountain Creek.
Mr.. EDlroR-sF have noticed some interesting
meetings in the paper, and great reyiyalinauenco
in different sections of TIT, District. But have
not seen any that came up to ours at Mountain rl
Creek. It was;one of the best. meetings lever 1
witnessed in my lifc. Some of the old est = mi men
about there saysthe same. II. lasted Seventeen
days, md eighty whites, and twenty colored
were added to the Church, (pcluding ono or two
days meeting since that time) making just one
hundred members. Surely "thc God of Jacob
was with u.s." 1t was union meeting of Gaptis'S
and Methodists. Both denominations met day
after day, and in the bonds of love and Affection
"poured out their complaints" together. Until
the mercies of God were .sho.ered upon the peo-
pie. Chow pleasant and delightful for brethren
to dwell together in unity -4.
Among the many converts. there wereseyeral
young men, the most promising Of the country,
who were regular soldiers for the defence of their
country, and who now have become soldiers OF
the cross of Christ. 1t is q pleasing thing to see
the youths Of this Chistinn land, coming Gas it
were) in one grcat phslanx, to- combat against

also attended meeting at Bethel of six days,
which resulted in eleven accessons to the Church.
A gracious time it was.
There have been various protracted meetings for
the last two months in different portions Of the
District, and all thnt have attended were favored
with revival in auences. I have witnessed nearly
one hundred and fifty accossions during that time

OBIT7UARY

fifty years and six months.
Deceased was q worthy citizen, an example, in
social life-and for thirty years sustained aud
adorned the character of u Christian gentleman.
Beside tho heavy weight with which it falls
upon his bereaved family, and the Church of hi'
choice, the death of such man, in the prime OF
life. is loss to tho country, leaves a chasm il
society, and must be mourned as public calamity.
The large concoursc attending his funeral, with
out distinction of name or creed, told the popular
estimate of his worthwhile the unaffected griei
of the many freedmen present. who had been hi.
servants, or were .cognizant of his kindness and
humanity. did honour to the Christian master and
the friend Of the poor.
The writer has reason to know that the support
and consultations of religion, which had sustained
our. brother from bis youth, were not withheld
during his last protracted suffering, and that his
love and reliance were alone upon the Saviour Of
Mercies, in full hope OF glorious immortality.
