Sheridan once succeeded admirably
in entrapping noisy member who
was in the habit of interrupting every
speaker with cries of "hear, hear" "
Richard Brinsley took an opportunity
to allude to a well known political
character of the time, whom he repre-
seEted as a person who wished to play
the rogue but had only sense enough
to play the fool. "Where," exclaim-
ed Sheridan, in continuation, and
with emphasis, "where shall we find
a more foolish knavc, or a more knav-
ish fool than this ?" "Here, here ~

BLACKBERRY WINE.-To every
gallon of fruit allow a quart of boiling
water; mash the berries; pour the
boiling water on them, and stir them
up well cover, and let it stand until
the following day. Then, having
stirred all again, strain the liquor into
the cask, adding good brown sugar in
proportion of two pounds to each gall
Ion; cork it tight. The wine viii be
ready for use in the course Of the au-
tumn. Still another way is to fill u
keg or cask three-fOurths full with
sound, ripe blackberries then FIJI up
the cask with mOlasses, close it tight,
and set it in a dry, cool place until
winter. The liquor may then be pour
ed off, and will be found an agreeaI Ie
common wine, and the berries will
make good pies.

lists.
Notice had been given to the public
that on Sunday. May 22d, fifty or
more persons would be baptized by
immersion near Port Gibson (about
four miles east of Fort Branch.) The
day fortunately proved to be one of
those lovely days of May. when Ma
ture presented herself in all her robes
of beauty. The woods rung with the
melody of thousand birds; hence it
was no wonder to see throngs coming
from every direction to witness this
imposing ceremony. To our surprise
there were two or three thousand
persons congregated on both sides of
the small stream, and as comfortably
arranged as circumstances would adj
nit without chairs or seats, except
such as nature had provided. After
short address by the Rev. Mr..
Strickland in regard to their views
of baptism and church doctrine, the
candidates, by request, came to the
water. At fifteen minutes after 10
o'clock the first person was led into
the water by the pastor of the Church,
Rev. G. Sands, and in ten minutes
eleven were baptized. Revs. Sands
and Strickland each led a candidate
in together, and as soon as one of the
administrators had administered the
ordinance the other Immediately fol-
lowed. During the next thirty min
utes thirty-six were baptized In this
way. The last six candidates all
came into the water together, and
were baptized in two minutes.
The location was rather an unfa-
vcrable one, and the administrators
much more deliberate than necessary
in administering the ordinance. We
are convinced, from what we saw here.

ganized bands of repeaterS, as they
are called, did not even pretend to
conceal their operations, but under
the very eyes of the police, shifted the
DISCUSSES under which, after a short
interval, the same persons voted in
other names. In one ward, nearly
five hundred negroes who had been
registered, were deprived of their
votes. because on appearing at the
ballot boxes, it was discovered that
repeaters had already voted for them.
Some of these negroes were actually
arrested for attempting to vote in
their own names. which had been al
ready used. Upon the whole, il IS.
perhaps, low estimate that thirty
thousand fraudulent votes were cast
to elect a Democratic Chief Justice.

Consumption.

The Three Remedies. "SCHENCH's PUL-
KoNIC SYRUP" for the cure of Coughs,
Colds, Bronchitis, and every form of Con-
sumption. The peculiar action of this med
icine ripens the ulcers in the lungs, pro-
NOTES the discharge of the corrupt matter
by expectoration. Purides the blood, and
thus cures Consumption, when every other
remedy fails.
"Schenck's Sea-Weed Tonic" for the
cure of Dyspepsia or Indigestion, and all
diseases arising from debility. This tonic
invigorates the digestive organs, supplies
the place of the gastric juice when that is
deficient, and then enables the patient to
digest the most nutrIcfous food. 1t is a
sovereign remedy for all cases OF indiges-
ton.
"Schenck's Mandrake Pills." one of the
most valuable medicines ever discovered,
being vegetable substitute for caIomeI,
and having all the useful properties as
crtbed to that mineral, without producing
any of its injurious effects.
To these three medicines DR.. J. n
Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes his an
riva1ed success in the Treatment of Pull.
monic Consumption. The Pulmonic Syrup
ripens the morbid matter, discharges 1t,
and pur1hes the blood. The Mandrake
Pills act upon the liver, remove all OBJ
structtons therefrom, give the organ q
healthy tone, and cure Liver Complaint,
which is one of the most prominent causes
OF Consumption.
The Sea-Weed Tonic Invigorates the
powers of the stomach, and by strengthen
ing the digestion and bringing IL to nor
NAL and healthy condition, improves the
quality of the blood, by which means the
formation of ulcers or tTlbercles in the
lungs becomes impossible. The combined
action of hese medicines, as thus ex-
planned, W cure every case of Consump-

Conductor on the E. & @. Railroad,
is announced as q prospective candi-
dats for Sheriff, and we understand
that his aspirations will be submitted
to the Democratic County Conven-
ton. While we do not see how the
Democracy can reasonably refuse to
re nominate Sheriff Miller, both be-
cause of precedent and his services
in behalf Of the party, still, if it is the
determination to behead him, we do
not know of better man for the
party to take up than Conductor
Ferry. He is a gentleman. and will
make an efficient officer. We only
wish that all parties, in all their nom
nations, would select as good men,
and men as well qualified for the
Offices which they are chosen to fill,
In such event. Whatever might be the
result Of the election, politically, the
people would have the assurance that
their affairs would be prudently and
honestly administered.

ute. Those who say that il was inn
possible for the three thousand that
were converted on the day of Pente-
cost to have been immersed on the
same day, will do well to examine this
calculation. IF we only admit the
twelve Apostles to be the only per-
sons at that time authorized to admin
lister the ordinance, they could have
baptized the three thousand by i'm
mersion. agreeable to calculation, In
two hours and FIVE minutes. There
were many of these doubters on the
ground, on Sunday. who had brought
their dinners with them, as though
they expected it would require most
of the day to baptize fifty-three, but
they were favorably disappointed by
having the privilege to return home

In Congress the other day, the
House being in Committee of the
whole, the question of tariff came up
for discussion. Under the provis-
ions of certain amendment to the
bill it was proposed that ladies cor
sets, palpitators, etc., should be sub
ject to taxation. We are glad to
chronicle the fact thpt it was Dem
ocrat-one Cox who was first to stand
up and vigorously defend woman S
rights and her liberties. He spent at
least one hour arguing the matter
during which time he very ably de.

subject seemed to increase in interest
