SPECIAL NOTICES.

1T is ADIAZING-That the feeble
should totter, with uncertain steps, over
the I, &c Of the earth, in danger every day
of falling Victims to the morbid influences
by which we are all surrounded, when
tested and proven vegetable tonic, capable
OF endowing them with the vigor they
need, is procurable in every city, town and
settlement. It might reasonably be
thought that after the twelve years expe-
rience which the world has had of HOS
LETTERS BTTTERS, all would know
that its effect is to prevent disease.
At this season the atmosphere is sur
charged with the seeds of intermittents,
remittents, rheumatism, pulmonary dis
orders, bilious complaints and the Like.
Persons whose nervous systems are re-
laxed are the first to succumb to these
distempers. Brace up the physical ener-
gies then with this potential vegetable
tonic. It is the most powerful recuperant
which the botanic kingdom has ever
yielded to patient research and expert
ment. Try it. The blindest disciple of
the old medical dogmas will at least admit
that tonic and Alternative, compounded
Of approved herbs, roots and barks, can
do no harm, while the testimony of thou
sands invites q trial of its virtues. ..
Vigor is the thing most needed in these
cases as well as in dyspepsia and nervous
affections, and Hostetter's Bitters is the
safest, Isurest and most wholesome
strengthening preparation that human
skill has yet conceded
Hundreds Of physicians have abandoned
all the efficinal receipts and prescribed
this harmless tonic as preventive and
cure for all cases of chills and fever.

Letter From Captain sheafe.

We extract the following from his let
| ter in response to citizens ofGiles county,
who wrote 10 congratulate Captain G. A.
Sheafe on his election to Congress from
the fourth district. He says:
had supposed that my msjority was
so decided that the Governor would not
hesitate to give me my certificate, but L
find a paragraph in to-day's Banner,
which says that the Governor has ten
dered the certificate to Col. Tillman, and
that he accepts. cannot help doubling
the truth of this report yet. How the
fact is time will tell.
Of one thing my friends may rest
assured, if live, l shall spare no pains
or labor to prevent this unjustifiable
attempt (if the attempt be made) to
deprive me of an Office which generous
and much abused and slandered people,
by majority of at least 1900 of the votes
polled, have conferred upon me.
II / was industrious in the canvass, l
shall certainly not be less jealous in my
efforts to defeat such a gross fraud, not
only upon me, but upon the people who
elected me. If this contest shall be
forced upon me it will become my duty
to show the country some Of the beauties
of the despotism which has fastened itself
upon the State of Tennessee. Upon no
other occasion could the question be so
fully and fairly presented. If they force
the controversy upon me, | shall be the
last man to shirk the responsibility of
meeting it.
1t is not doubted by Sheafe's friends
in his district that so far from Tillnan
being entitled to the certificate on any
ground of fraud, what there was was
mainly in his favor. And that fair
election (if such q thing was possible in
Brownlow's domain) would give the dis
trict to Sheafe by 5000 votes over Till
man or Mullins.

GEORGIA.

Augusta, December L. The mayor
and city council have ordered the post
ponement Of the municipal election until
the assembling of the Legislature in Jan.
usry, taking the ground that negroes are
entitled to vote by the legislative law
granting the city charter, and that an
election is null and void unless the pres
ent Legislature strikes out the word
white in the city charter. The Demo-
Gratis claim that the State Constitution
aud reconstruction laws give negroes the
right to vote, the municipal laws to the
contrary Notwithstanding, and propose
holding the regular election allowing the
negroes to vote, and leave the Legisla-
ture to decide as to its legality.
The Columbia and Augusta railroad
has been finished from Columbia to
Granville, ten miles from Augusta,
where it connects with the South Caro-
lima trains, and ran through yesterday.

ST. LOUIS.

ST.. LOUIS, December 1.-The Demo-
crat has a special, dated in the field, In
dian Territory, November 20, which says
the Cheyenne village of Black Kettles
band, on the north fork of the Wichita
river, was captured yesterday morning at
daybreak, by the cavalry under General
Gustav. One hundred and fifty Indians
we're killed and fifty.three taken pris-
oners. A large amount of property was
captured, consisting of fifty-one lodges,
nearly one thousand horses and mules,
arms and ammunition, horse equipments,
robes, provisions, etc., most of which was
destroyed. Black Kettle, the principal
chief, was killed. Capt. Louis Hamilton
was killed, Lieut. Col. Barnitz severely,
if not fatally, wounded, and Maj. Elliott
is missing. One soldier of the Seventh
cavalry was killed and twenty-four
wounded. The Indians, including wo-
men and boys, fought desperately, but
they were completely overpowered and
very badly whipped.
