@ SOLOMON'S BlrTERS.-THIS PRE-
PARATION. compounded by one Of our oldest and
most esteemed druggists, has during the short time
In which 1t has been offered to the public, attained
reputation which has almost entirely driven out Of
market the various tonics and stimulants which, for
a few months by e1ofbitant putting and heavy ad-
yertisi,g, succeeded in building profitable bust
ness for their projectors
soomon's Bitters are not of the fashy style, de.
pending upon large advertising, bought puffs and
fictitious recommendations for sale to gulhble
public. Their composition is well known to and ap.
proved by many of our best physicians and the pro-
pretors depend upon the intrinsic merits of their
medicine to make it as popular as it is curative.
They do net pretend to offer medicinal prepara
ton that will cure all the Ills that flesh is heir to,
but they do contend that the udcious use of these
Bitters will greatly alleviate human suffering, and
bring very many to state OF comparative health
who have long been strangers to that grfa oiesslng
One good genuine recommendation OF any pro.
fassed curative is worth dozens or hundreds OF
bonobt certificates, and the Messrs. SOLOMONS
have only published few out of the hundreds ofun-
solicited testimonies which the have received. We
this morning give copy of letter from Hon. ALEX.

appalling Scenes.

Tne New York Worlds correspondent at
Ayondale gives very graphic description Of
the scene ct the mine at the time the bodies
Of the dead miners were brought up from the
pit. The appearance Of the dead men was
very singular, nearly all Of them showing in
their faces and on their bodies ruddiness
that could hardly be distinguished rom the
glow Of health. Oaly one man was disdgured,
and the expression on nearly allthe faces was
ealm and peaceful, denoting that the consum.
nation Of the asphyIia was almost wholly
painless.
Most Of ths.unf3rtunaie men were Welsh
men, the nt6ber Of Lishmen being very small,
and but one American is known to have been
in the mine. When the stains Of their labor
had been Wsshed away, the spectators beheld
the curling locks, the finely cut features and
columnarnecks and busts peculiar TO the sons
OF Ggmri. But the sight OF these dead bodies,
showing neither enaciation nor disease, was
the widows and fatherless children. The loud
cries OF grief and walls OF despair which vera
reported 70 have accompanied the first news OF
the disaster, had died away when.the full force
of the blow was felt. The widowed women sat
In their homes, usually on. their thresholds OF
near them. unnoyed, stern aud stolid, looking
out upanTheir neighbors or the throngs OF
passing Strangers with str stare that
seemed to express q wonder that the sun
should chime and the rivers fow, and men, and
women 60 and come, now when all that made
life worth living was blotted ont. The cores
pondent noted but two exceptions to this
silent mourning. One Was an old Irish vomap
who rocked to and ffo IN her chair, Grooming
the name of her dead husband or son, and the
other was young Welsh girl whom he foupi
writhing on the ground by the roadside, bury
ing her lace 10 the earth with wild tumultuous
bursts OF sobbmg, and broken calculations
that she might die. From the general temper
and demeanor ofthe miners. the Worlds cores
pondent believes that the dark, days are soon
coming for the capitalists OF the mining dis
trict. The Welshnnen are suIen and dogged
after th3ir nature; the Irishmen, after theft
nature also, are noisy and farce, and both
Glasses believe that their comrades have beer
murdered. The Celtic portion at least are
very demcnstratvai in their expression of this
opinion. .anait resentment shows itself In
their demeanor towards every one not Of their
class and station. One gfay.headed old mIne,
who guarded the bodies Of the dead, was ap'
preached by the correspondent with request
that be might be allowed facilities for learning
the pames OF the unfortunates; ths desire wa:
civilly expressed, and the proper credentials
were shown, but the miner broke out fiercely
"Get their names, is itp Pot on lamp on ye
hat then, and 90 down the shaft like man fo
theifnames. I suppose .yeer here to maxi
money out O. this. God d-n ye."

ANcE COMPANY, ATLANTA DEPARTMENT.
To the People Of South Carolina:
The above Company was organ zed in 1866, in
consequence Of the wholesale forfeiture Of Southern
policies by Northern companies. The unparalleled
success Of the enterprise has forced several of
companies 10 restore their Southern policies, from
the fact that they could not operate In our midst
without the appearance Of honesty.
We keep all our money at home to build up our
impoverished country-every dollar of premium
being safely invested In the state from which II is de-
rived TheinsttutioD purely Southern. and hence
should appeal with great force to the patriotism and
and sympathy Of every Southern heart
IT'S not our purpose to make war on other COM
panes but to exhibit the special advantages offered
by this purely Southern Company--founded on
patriotism and solid wealth. It's ratio of assets to
iablities-the true test of company's strength-is
second to this continent, being nearly $500
to 500.
Whenever and wherever we have presented the
claims OF this Company, 1t has not only enlisted the
sympah es of our people, but has also secured their
hearty cooperation. We have secured GOO policies
in South Carolina since the 10th of February. We
number among our Directors General Wade Hnmp-
ton and Colonel VIM. Johnston. gentlemen well
known to every citizen Of South Carolina. We sp-
peal personally to the people Of South Carolina to
assist in pushing forward this deservedly popular
