THE GREAT REVIVAL AT COLUm-
BEA.

To the Editors of the Union and American:
COLUMBIA, Tenn, Dec. Il, 1S70.-My
notes for the past week, with one excep-
ton, prove TO be all blank. That one
exception is the terminus of the most i'm
prossive aud glorious revival Of religion
II has ever been our good fortune to wit
ness, which was carried on in the Cum
berlaud PRESBYTERIAN Church for near
four weeks. The good work had the
CountenauCe and assistance Of the follow
ing pas. o4s: The Rev. MT. Smith, of the
Methodist, and Rev. J. p. OTIS, Of the
PresbyteS2an. The venerable Rev. VIM.
Mack, whose hairs have grown gray in
the service, was also present and gener-
Gus co-wofker. May he long be spared to
continue to labor in the holy vineyard
is our most earnest wish The Rev.
DR. Berry, as well as the pastor of the
church, the Rev. Samuel Caruthers, are
deserving Of great need Of praise for
their uutifing CNeTlions. The meeting
was commenced under the most uafavuT-
able circumstances. At the outset heavy
clouds hung overhead; but few, mere
handful. as Il were, constituted The con-
gregaliln. Nothing daunted, however,
the good pastor pressed on. His efforts
were blessed In all respects. A lovely
spell of weather came up, and Heaven
itself seemed 10 smile with toe golden
rsys of the moon. Men and women
went forward TO l,nger but short while,
for all who presented themselves seemed
10 find that for which they were seeking.
Repeatedly tue meeting would be closed
for the evening with but few in the altar,
but at each succeeding meeting it would

1t would seem strange If in the multiform de-
and yet evade the law, some transaction, snala-
gous to this has never come before the court for
Judgment Every precedent, ssys Lord Coke
must have a beginning, but when authority and
precedent IRE wanting there is need Of great con-
sider2tion before anything OF novelty is estab-
lished. Id. ch. 200.
But this kind of case is not altogether without
precedent in the courts Of this State. The OF
Enos vs. State, tried and determined at Jackson in
1858, was not reported, but Is well remembered.
The facts of that case, to the aTihce used, were
slmost identical with those Of this case, except
that two pearl buttons were used instead of sill
yer coins, and small round box, Of curious con-
struction, called the Mexican ball, was used in
stead Of folded card. It requires two persons,
apparently strangers TO each ether, ard meeting
casually, in this case, 20 perform the operation.
The prosecutor, a credulous countrymAn, fell an
easy victim. One Of the parties, while the other
wss looking away, touched a spring, opened the
box, and took out pearl button in full view OF
the prosecutor. The other then advancing. Of
feGed 10 bet there was button in the box. The
prosecutor was induced to lend the party, who
hsd taken out the button, considerable snm to
bet on it, and took out his pocket-boJk with that
view, and procee led to count out the money. At
this instant the other party showed thu other but
ton, seized the money and walked of with II
while his confederate remained for few nc
menSs with the bewildered couItryman, and con-
sOlsd him by denoBncing the outrage, and giving
free utteHNpce to his sympathy and indignation
Only one Of TIE parties was arrested, snd he wal
conYicted Of robbsry, which, upon appeal to thii
Court, was affirmed. SNEED, J.

THE vEGETATIVE POWERS OF LIFE ARE
l. strong, but in few years how often the paid
hue, the lack -lustre eye and emaciAted form, and
the impossibility Of application to mental effort,
show its banefuI influence. It soon becomes evi

What n Bostonian Thinks.

The Adams IN. y Visitor speaks of an emf
ncnt BOstOnian who regarded an advertise
ment in a newspaper as personal invitation
to call and said: "While sometimes hesitate
about entering a store the proprietors Of which
have not thus sent their cards to my residence,
/ always feel certain of cordial welcome
from the members of an advertising firm"
The same paper adds: There is in this re-
mark an assurance OF one of the many results
of advertising. The trader and his calling be-
come identified, and the name Of the man is in
separably connected in the mind of the public
with his merchandise. 1t may not be the very
day an advertisement appears that it bears its
fruit; weeks or months may elapse, and then,
when the want arises, the article to be OBJ
tanned Immediately suggests the advertiser.
This is the effect of general advertising when
persistently followed. A special class Of adj
Vertisements, where some novelty is announced
is more immediate. A shrewd business man
once advertised a tri1ing article in manner
which could scarcely prove remunerative. His
neighbOrs expressed their regret at his folly
but he appeared cOntented. Though his gross
sales of the article did not cover the cost of his
advertising, he attracted new class Of people
TO his store, and his shrewdness paid him in a
very short time, for new eyes saw what he had
to offer in addition to the speciality advertised,
and new purses came under contribution to
him. -

Does 1t Pay to Advertise ?

If you have any doubts about it, the only
way to find out is to give it fair trial, and az
certain whether it does or not.
From every section of the country come tes-
timonials of the advantages derived from a
well regulated system Of advertising. A surer
or safer investment for business men cannot
well be imagined. It puts them before the
public in beneficial light; "they become
known end read of ali men," and reap an
abundant harvest from the seed thus sown-
There can be no doubt of the fact; patrons de-
clare it; newspapers assert it, and experience
conclusiyely proves 1t. Here are few cases
gathered nom various sources illustrating this
point;

SIN 1861, young man was employed in this place
az a clerk in a house. ct the moderate sum Of four
dollars per week In the fall Of 1862 he went into
a small business on his own hook. In 1853 he
formed copartnershfp with his brother. When
the senior Of this firm threw his little bark on the
sea Of public trade, we suggested to him how to
advertise He took our advice-followed 1t strictly

DEATH OF DR.. TJADER-An event
which has long been sorrowfnliy looked
forward to took place yesterday. DR..
a. ". Tjader. one of the pioneers OF
Nevada and who was very generally and
favorsbly known in this State died yes
terday after a protracted illness Of dis
tressing and complicated nature. He
has been confined within doors during
the past five or six mouths with dis
order, which, we believe, embraced a
diseased state Of both heart and lungs,
these superiuducing dropsy of the alb
domen and lower extrenities. He has
been great sufferer, but heroically pa
tIeoI aud courageous. His demise has
been expected to occur anytime during
the past few weeks. DR.. Tjader was a
native of Russia and, we understand, a
graduate of the Harvard Medical school.
He had seen much of life and been in
many lands. He leaves a wife "a
daughter of Col. A. Curry and two
children. We tender our sympatbes
to those who are bereaved by his death.
ALucKY EscAPE.-Hon. F. A. Tritle
was thrown from his buggy evening be-
fore last, after all, though we were IN
able at that time TO get hold OF more
than a mere rumor to the effect that
some such accident had happened to
him. 1t appears that in coming from
Dayton by way Of the Leel and Blrdsall
grade, in company with Ed. Patten,
their team took fright in passing d train
of wagons at long chain dragging a
lock-,ron, aud backed off the grade.
Buggy, men and horses went down an
almos, perpendicular bank a distance of
twenty feet. Mr.. Pat,en escaped with
out injury, but Mr.. Trltle had his right
leg pretty badly bruised below the knee
The horses came down after the buggy,
and, falling upon il, broke the pole ana
got their feet SO caught aud tangled 10
the wheels that several spokes had to be
broken out before they could be extri.
cated.-Eate,prise.

apparently none the worse for wear.
