PARIS, May 1.-The firing last night was
fearful and apparently reckless. There has been
nothing to compare with it since the commence
ment ofthe civil war.
The city is greatly excited and alarmed
Groups of frightened people are on every street,
discussing the state Of affairs.
Gen Oholowitzi's wound is very severe one
and very doubtful.
The delegates from the Masonic Lodges of
Paris, have returned from Versailles. They
were unable to accomplish anything. They re-
port that Theirs expresses the opinion that a
oeaceable arrangement with the Paris Commune
is impossible
The editors of all the moderate journals in
Paris have been ordered prosecuted by the Com
mune, and are leaving the city as rapidly as pos
sibe.
Private Telegraphing in Paris is again entirely
suspended
Rossel, in accepting the insurgent Ministry of
War, says he shall have need of the absolute CO
operation of the Commune troops and people of
Paris
The provincial elections in all parts of France
have resulted in the choice of conseryative repub
licans,
Negotiations for the surrender of Issy has fail
ed The bombardment has recommended, and
is very violent,
VERSAILLES May 3,--The insurgents at Issy
after hosting the white flag, hauled il dowp.-
They will soon have to surrender Monrogue
and Venvres will soon meet the same fate.
The anger Of the troops against the insurgents
is inconceivable They refuse quarter, and it is
useless for officers to urge mercy.

Poisonous Medicines.

The theory that the virtue of disease can be
safely couneracted by doses ofpoison is false and
dangerous Within the last25 years. not less than
a score of virulent poisons have been added to
the repository of the medical profession, They
are given in small doses, otherwise they would
destroy life Immediately; but even in minute
quantities they produce ultimately, very disas-
trous effects. 1t is unwise and unphilosophical
to employ, as remedies, powerful and insidious
drugs, which, in subjugating one disease, sows
seeds of another still more unmanageable. None
of these terrible indictments operates with as
mach directness and certainty upon the causes OF
disease as Hostetters Stomach Bitters, tonic
and corrective, without single deleteri0us in
gredient in its composition Arsenic and qunia
are given for intermittents bromide of POTASH
UNI for nervous disorders; strycbnine and pruss-
ic acid for general debility; mercury in various
forms for liver complaint; preparations Of chic
reform and opium for sleeplessness; and yet
these deadly drugs do not compare, as specifics
for the diseases above enumerated, with that
wholesome vegetable inygorant and Alternative,
while they are all so pernicous that il is aston
ishing that any physician should take the re-
sponsibility of prescribing them. Let invaids
for their own sakes, try the Bitters before they
resort to the poisons. The relief they will eX-
perence from a course of the harmless specific,
will render recourse to the unsafe preparations
referred to- quite unnecessary.

RURAL CARoLINIAN FOR

RURAL CAROLINIAN FOR May
Varied, fresh, instructive. The
frontispiece, handsome engraving OF
General Johnson Hagood, President
of the South Carolina Agricultural
and Mechanical Society, is worthy Of
the Magazine and General. General
Hagood is no Militia General, but a
Confederate officer, who won his
spurs upon the field of battle, and in
taking the lead in favor of improv-
ed agriculture, he is only following
his old habit of being always in the
front. DR.. e. M. Pendleton, of
Sparta, Ga, DIR. G. U. Shepard, ST.,
the celebrated chemist, and B. Ma
son of Fla, Col. D. Wyatt Aiken,
and a score of other we'll posted
planters, make their contributions to
this number. A glance at the names
of the various places at which CORES :
pondents date their contributions is
convincing proof of the wide circu-
lation and extensive influence of the
Rural Carolinian. The only wonder
is that such Magazine can be sup
piled at the low rate Of 81 per an
nun, and yet afford reasonable
profit to the publishers, Messrs.
Walker, Evans & Cogswcll, Charles
ton, S. G.

To DRIVE AWAY BEDBUGs.-An
exchange gives the following as a
sure way to drive bedbugs from old
bedsteads "Take green tomato
vines, put them into a basin or tray,
pound them to pieces as fine as pos
siblc, then stain the bedsteads,
where they inhabit with the juice,
fill the crevices with the pieces of
vine lay leaves under the ends of
the Stats" If this is practiced twice
a year not bug will remain in the
bedstead.
We know of much easier and
better remedy. Procure an ounce OF
genuine Persia Insect Powder and
sprinkle it along the sides of the bed,
under the stats and you can wager
any amount that the bugs will give
your bed a wide berth. An ounce is
enough for one bed. 1t can be pro-
cured at the drug stores.

Fifteen years ago a young lady of
Cincinnati, while visiting friend in
New York, left her fngerrings upon
her wash stand, and not hearing from
her friend relative thereto, inferred
that the chamber-maid had appropri-
ated them. Last week the Cincinna-
ii lady received letter from an old
bachelor uncle, enclosing letter fif-
teen years old, written by her New
York friend, containing the missing
rings. The letter had been entrus-
ted to the uncle, and he had put it
into his pocket, and from that recep-
tacle it passed into a mass of old
papers, where it had slept quietly
ever since.

A RETURNED ExILE.-On yestcr-

rived in this city, from South Amer
lea, on his way to his parents home
situated in the northern part of the
State. lie says he is a native OF
West Virginia, and served during
the war ia the Confederate army
After the war he, like many other
soldiers o.. the Lost Cause, was bit by
the Brazilian emigration scheme, and
went to that country. After giving
his new home fair trial, he became
convinced that he could not make
living there and determined to re-
turn to tho South. With all his mon
ey spent, he found this rather diff
fcult task, but succeeded in getting
to California. There he was the vic
tim of n railway accident. which
severely injured his left arm. BY
a very roundabout way he reache d
Augusta, on his way home-his faith
err having moved from West Virgin
ia to Georgia on account of political
persecution. He was entirely out
of funds, and applied to the Mayor
for transportation to Atlanta.
