DIR. JOHN BULL.

The proprietor of this celebrated medicine jnstly claims for it superiority over all remedies ever offered to the public for the sqte eertasa, speedy. and permanent cure of Agre aud Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether of short or long standing. He refers to the entire Western and Southwestern country to bear him testimony to the truth of the as- sertion, that in no case whatever will it fail to cure, if the directions are strictly followed and carried out. In a great many cases a single dose has been sufficient for Q cure, and whole families have been cured by single bottle, With perfect restoration of the gen eral health. It Is, however, prudent, and in every case more certain to cure, if it's use is continued in smaller doses for week or two after the disease has been checked, more es- peeinlly in difficult and long-standing cases. usually, this medicine will not require any aid to keep the bowels in good order; should tho patient, however, require cathartic medicine, after having taken three or four doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL s VEG ETABLE FAMILY PILLS will be sufIi- cient.

 =A.-.Z NZWs2ApzE.. And now ranks as one of the first in the State. The greatest care will be taken to make its selections choice and instructive A new feature will soon be added by pub fishing story each week, or if too long, running it through two or three numbers. The political complexion of the Citizen is white-opposed to negro suffrage and score of other Radical tenets, and while opposing them shall advocate the principle that white men should rule white men.
 In times of great political danger every man should take paper, and it is more than probable that the present year will witness more political excitement and ex- traordinary political events than any pre- vious one of our nationality. Let the people assist the CITIZEN by joining in and making up clubs, and they will there by render it powerful auxiliary in their warfare against hateful negro suffrage and the many other evils the Radical party design thrusting upon the State.

HORACE WILDE, BY Mrs. M. Jeapie Mallary:
Philadelphia J. B. Lppincott d Coz CHARLES
ton: John Russell
Horace Wilde is q book with an aim,
an object, raison d'strs. It seems to have
been manufactured for the sole purpose OF
demonstrating the truth that ''immerslon"
is the only baptism, the "hard-shell Bap-
tist'' the only Christian Church, and "close
communion" the sole available door to
Heaven. The meagre supply Of incident
which links together its somewhat tedious
theological discussions is not remarkable
for either interest or originality. The
heroine will not marry the hero because,
in the first place, he is not Christian; and,
that difficulty being overcome, because,
secondly, he is guilty of the far more helm
GUS crime of preferring the Methodist to
the Baptist helmet of salvation. Vast the
illogical discourses ensue, all of which tend
to the elimination at which we have limited.
The resources of sectarian logic are ran
sacked, and CHRIST is plainly shown-te
the satifaction of the writer, at least-to
have ordained the Baptist Church Gin the
beginning"
All the trite arguments Of the narrowest
and most bigoted school of Biblical herme-
neutics ore revived and reiterated; and if,
to the liberal mind, which accepts church
catholic, and cherishes fond visions Of q
Heaven which shall receive within its fold
both sssprinkled," ''poured" and "dipped''
Christians, there is something repulsive in
the blind dogmatism which makes salvation
matter Of hydropathy, and proportions
the ''pouring out of the spirit" with exact
reference to the depth Of the aspirant's i'm
mersion, why Of course, that is, if possi-
BILE, an additional proof Of the unsavory
truthfulness of the doctrine.
The book seems to have been thrown into
its present form to allure that class of read
ers who would not be likely to affect a
sstraot." We can conscientiously commend
it to any "close-communion" Baptist who
wishes to see the grounds Of his faith pre-
sented in compact and popular form.

CHI A R Es TON.
WEDNESDAY MORNING. AUGUST 12. 1868.
The Negro Military Organizations in
Charleston.

It is well that the people should know
that for three months past bodies Of armed
negroes have been drilling nightly at four
different places Of rendezvous in the City Of
Charleston. They make no noise or dis.
turbance beyond giving the word Of COM
mand and going through the ordinary mill
tary evolutions, but they are working
patiently and steadily to make themselves
trained and disciplined armed associations.
The new constitution; by which all me-
groes swear, declares that ethe people have
right to keep and bear arms for the COM
mon defence" This means tnat they have
the right to bear them openly and in the
light of day. There is no interference to
be dreaded, for the negroes can drill upon
the Citadel Green at noon if they desire.
They have no one to modest or disturb them,
but they still do their drilling il the dark
hours Of the night, and in quarters Of the
city where they are hidden from general
observation.
1t is evident that this conduct admits Of
but one rational explanation. Ifthe negroes
were only organizing because they are fond
of playing at soldier, they would not lurk
in out!of.the-way corners and keep their
movements secret. They would parade
openly and in public; and now that they
SO far give up their natural love ofeshow
as to exercise where they have no specta-
tors but themselves, it is reasonably certain
that they are gathered together for no good
or peaceful purpose. The military organi-
zstions Of the negroes in Abbeville, and
Union, and upon the sea islands, should
tesch us lesson. All over The State there
are negro companies, battalions and regi-
ments. It is their ayowed purpose to over
awe the white man, to keep him down by
force Of arms. Have the similar organiza-
tions which exist in Charleston any other
aim?
In this connection we desire to call
attention to significant extract from the
last number Of the negro Gains negro
paper. It is as follows:
"When the issue comes, there will be
$4,000 loyal men who will spring to arms in
this State at the sound Of the first note.
Every plantation has its captain; and the
nnen and ,0on,en are prepared to stand by
their liberties. They stand on the defen-
aive,. and no aggressive measure will be
taken by them; they are determined to keep
the peace and abide by law and order, and
see that the liberties Of their children are
guarded with sleepless vigilance. Let their
foes be aware!"

HKAD1AND HONE, Oh ASouLs PILGRIMAGE. BY
Madame De Lesdernier. New York: Pub
lished by James Miller. Charleston John
Russell.
The rather fanciful title Of this book is
not bad index Of its contents, which are
characterized by much Of that morbid anal
ysis Of passion and sentiment which has
been brought to its highest pitch, perhaps,
in contemporary French literature. Though
somewhat defective in unity Of interest,
several of the detached scenes are full Of
power and pathos; and scattered through
out its pages are many shrewd and sugges-
tive criticisms upon the social sores Of the
day, which are evidently the product Of
much careful observation and reflection.
The earlier chapters, containing the his
tory Of the writer's childhood and youth,
are, in many particulars, striking and pic
turesque; and the latter portion of the story,
detailing the intercourse of the heroine
with Mr.. St. Cyr, if trenching now and
then upon the bounds of conventional re-
serve, is marked by considerable truth and
insight.
The author is eloquent upon the subject
of the anomalies which characterize the in
teroourse of men and women in society, and
some Of her remarks will bear repetition.
No doubt there are many men who take the
same liberal views as Norton, as to the rela-
tions of the sexes, and many also who share
Lionel Blandford's Inconsistency of theory
and practice:
SAN exquisite creature, as you say,
Blandford. But don't be O. fool about her,
my good fellow. If you are tired Of dane
ing attendance on her caprices, desert
You have made her no promises"
"Yet feel like villain; for, tacitly, 1
have promised her everything. Ny acts
have ell been pledges of love and constancy.
By my exclusive attentions, have pre-
vented others from addressing her; and
she, with her good, earnest, trusting heart,
has believed in me as much as though had
sworn fidelity to her. I did not mean to
carry the matter so far; but we must part !'
The intelligent reader will hardly need
to be told that Mr.. Blandford does not part
from the young lady in question, until a
little too late for the peace of either. On
wrongs such as this, the author is justly
severe. 1t is doubtful, however, if they
will ever be removed while men and women
continue 10 be constituted as they now are.
The chief fault Of the book, as ne have
