CHOLERA CJRED.As EASILY, As TeeTH-AcHE.- -.
DR.. Post, who is represented as high medical
authority in New York, delivered q lecture re-
Gently at the Medical College in that city. He
claims that the cholera is curable as the tooth
ache His method Of treatment, as be explained
it, is briefly as follows:
The patient is first attacked by diaTrhoea, ac-
eompanied by extreme lassitude. He should go
instantly to bed, and remain perfectly quiet for
fortyeight hours, taking at least fifteen grains of
calomel to &FiEe the infection from the system.
After this has acted freely, mild dose of lauda-
mum should be given to soothe the patient and
prevent further Intestinal action. Ice should be
applied to the spinal column. Dr.. Post claiRas
that this treatment has been applied in thos-
sands Of cases, and never failed to result in the
entire and rapid seeovery of the patient. 1t is q
the very FIRST impolteace that the patient should
not abaBdon the reclining posture, from the very
com mmencemsnt of the disease until the recovery.
li-the prominent men in the city are engaging
themselves in the study Of tho cholera, not cini

ASEvERE REBUKE.-The disgusting blasphemy
of Mr. Sumner, in ikening the typical negro to
Him who Ras God On the Cross, before the Sen
ate of christian nation, was but imperfectly
rebuked by Mr.. Fessenden thas: ~ ..s.
Did the House, as charged by Mr. Sumner, place
themselves in the situation Of Pontius PLATE,
with the negro for the Saviour of the world, and
the people of the United States for Barrabas ?
Why, sir, expected him Mr.. Sumnerl to go
further, and in the next breath to say that what
with the Constitution of the United States and
the Constitution of the States, the negro had
been crucifed between two thieves and that
now, by this proposed amendment, the stone had
been rolled away from the sepulchre, and
he had ascended to sit on the throne of the Al
mighty and Judge the world. -. -. Il. Il

On late short visit to Columbia we. called
upon our cid friend Dr.. E. Sill, formerly one of
the largest and most practical druggists in that
city, butnow owing TO the destruction Of that
place, reduced to a much narrower line of busi-
ness. His present surroundings are somewhat
different in character to the past. We found him
in the midst of seeds of all varieties and descFip-
tions, his only business at present, to which is
given his whole time and energy. This is the
only place we know of outside of Charleston,
where anything like general variety can be OBJ
tanned, and at such favorable prices, and recon-
mend the Doctor 10 seed buyers generally over
the up country. Send in orders early which will
be attended to faithfully.

. HAVE YOU SEEN 1T.-There may bea few whc
have not, and we therefore ca!l attention to, 4
remarkable ornamental feature which can eseen
without the aid Of specs in the rear of the Court
House. The o.iginal design may have been the
creation of galIows, and such may still be the
purpose of the architect, but as it is surmounted
with bell, we scarce know what to call it. It
was designed by and erected under the super
vision of our town marshal, Mr.. Brig. Gen. Ed.
Peterson to whom all the credit musta attach.
We suggest that it be removed Immediately 40

The advantage of its present position is only that
tue traveller can see it as he leaves the cars, be-
fore he arrives at the square or his hotel bnt in
the other place it will show to greater advantage
at all times, to all persons, and during court es-
peeiaIy, will be a decided feature. An iron
railing might be added as protection against

4 FOWL AcT.-The facts have come to our
knowledge that killing took place yesterday in
this town, but in such quiet manner that out
side of the Immediate yard, in which the deed
was perpetrated, nothing is known of it. Early
on Monday morning lady visited, with her two
little innocent children, the house of her relative
The usual salutations exchanged, pleasant little
chat took place and all seemed well, little did the
visitor dream of the deed about to be done and
which was even then in contemplation. She was
left alone for a few moments Her thoughts
were IN pleasant train. But a moment before
her two little prattlers were at her knee, the next
she heard-how can We prOceed-the cry of oh,
ma, tho cooks cut its head off. Rushing to the
spot, alas, she found it but too true anttering on
the ground lay the frame Of the little pet chicken
rooster. Wasn't it awful. -r@ :. = . .'.--
