Hot Water as a Remedy.

We clip the following from the
Memphis Avalanche:
"a glass of hot water without whisky
or sugar is the fashionable method of
treating all disturbances of the human
system. A young man who was COM
PEELED to resign his position as teacher
in one OF the New York public schools
because he was breaking down with con-
sumption tells the Sun how it is himself.
He says: 81 began taking one cup of
hot water an hour before each meal,
and gradually increasing the dose to
three cups. At first it was unpleasant
to take but now / drink it with a
relish that never experiencedin drink
ing the choicest wine. began to pick
upimmediately after the new treatment
and gained fourteen pounds within two
months. Ihave gained ground steadily
in the trying climate of New York,
and l tell you, sill, feel on a sure
way to recovery"
The above accords with our expert
ence in the use of hot or warm water
in almost all bilious and dispeptic COM
plants. We have found nothing
which gives quicker or surer relief to a
bilious stomach than continued draughts
of warm water. If it acts as an emetic
80 much the better. In this way it
washes out and effectually cleanses the
stomach and leaves it in a clean and
healthy condition. 1t is simply a
washing out of the stomach. This
treatment will be found very effectual
in cases OF bilious collie. 1t is certainly
a very cheap, simple and safe remedy,
and always at hand. This sort Of
treatment may interfere with the drug
gists sales and the business of the ply,
stefan, but never mind that. We be-
lieve strongly in warm water as a remedy
and baveused it successfully in ouI
own family for four years. Try it.

Cremation in England.

DIR. Cameron gave notice in the
House of Commons on Saturday OF MS
intention on an early day next session
10 introduce a 5illlegalizlng cremation.
ln'the event OF an outbreak OF cholerA
in this country before the close Of the
wear the question, which has OF late
attracted but little attention, will
probably again be revived and be
t,ken into serious consideration;
Meantime the ordinary form Of burial
holds its ground, and there are 10
gy M ptoms as yet o. change OF pub
lie feeling in this respect. Cremation
would have better chance of speedy
adoption if a few prominent memoe
Of the upper classes would kindly
give direction for the burning OF thelI
premains after deceass. If once th'
notion became prevalent that to burr
! dead bodies rather than bury then
was the right thini, to do from a 50
,iz. - point of view, the relatives an
friends of deceased persons would rus
4 to the furnace by nyriads. The burr
inc of one dead duke would do nor
to promote cremation than all tn
can ue urged in favor of the pract''

An Open Letter.
To the Members of the South Carolina
nAa f.nnnnn.

To the Members OF the Soatth Co7oSan@
Conference:
My DEAR BRETHREN Pardon me
for writing few lines of suggestions.
I deem them not out of place. A
great many of the discomforts of the
itinerancy may be lessened if not en-
tirely removed, by little thought
fulness on the part of oul ministry
rather, 1 would say, by the observ-
anee OF the spirit Of the golden rule.
The people are not altogether to
blame when parsonagesT are not com
fortably furnished; when an incom
ing pastor is not properly welcomed.
They are willing-ready-but they
need somebody to suggest; and that
person is the incumbent on the cir
cult, station, or mission previous to
the session of the Annual Conference.
It is so unpleasant to 90 to new
charge and find things disordered. 1t
is SO easy to prevent it. Tten' too'
those of us who are on circuits have
horses and COWS. How easy, in the
fall of the year, to plant an oat or
barley patch somewhere on the par
sonage lot; and what a blessing It is
early in the coming year.
Let me say to the brother, who is
~ cro.ood mo nm the Johns on Cir
cult, that I am already preparing for
his coming. To morrow, (September
llth), fifteen ladies, representing my
three churches, will meet at the par
sunage by my request. They Will
look into the needs of the parsonage
and what is necessary will be supplied
made up, and in its place, by the end
of the year. We do this now, be
cause it can't be done we'll in a rush
lust before new preacher comes.
Then, before l leave for Confer
ence, will APPOINT good, judicious
faithful committees for the following
work: One committee to meet him
and family at the train; one to give
warm welcome to the parsonage
one to see that there are provisions to
last him several daXs5 neIhapS 9R,ySr weeks; 9;
one t0 have on Eand suPpiJ
w wood. horse. feed, &c. And, let me
saw, there will be no bill! presented
for a single thing; the value OF Il
| ali wont be discussed at the hrs

cost him a cent. ~
In addition to all this will t1rl

In Memory of Chancellor Carroll

At a late meeting Of the Columbia
Bar held for the purpose-the fol-
loving Preamble and Resolutions were

In the providence Of God, James
Parsons Carroll, the most distinguished
member of the Columbia bar, has

wish to die, in. in the full possession of
all his faculties; that although by
reason Of strength the years OF his age
were prolonged beyond the three score
wears and tep allotted to man here on
earth, he suffered while in lifs from
no lingering disease, no slow decay
of his physical or intellectual powers.
AS we knew him in the long past, SO
he appeared VIXEN he last presented
himself in the forum, where be. was
distinguished as a 2counse!Sr' and
where, q as Chancellor, he had presid-

will long be remembered by US all tor

A Card From Mrs. StOneWall Jack
son.
Charlotte Journal Observer.

Upon my return from my recent
visit to the North, ] find some com.
nents which are not entirely Just,
from the Southern press, and in jus.
ice to myself and my daughter. |
must correct some statements which
have been made. After joining Gov.
and Mrs. Jarvis, who were going to
take the same trip we were, (and
where could we find more pleasant
and suitable party to travel with than
the Governor of my native State and
his excellent wife?) aninvitation was
extended to us to become the guests
Of the'State of Massachusetts.
-I'was advised by Southern friends
to accept it; and it was urged that
we. would not be the guests OF Gov.
Butler, but Of the State, which repre-
seAedmany good and noble people,
Whhe in Boston, we entertained at a
hotel, and. did not cross the threshold
Of Gen. Butler. Justics,, however,
compels me to say that he was want
nzln no courtesy to the guests OF his
State. The people of Boston, and at
every point we visited in the North,
certainly gave evider ceI that my hus
Band S name was held in such homer
iandsreverence, that my heart could
not but be touched with tender and
grateful emotion. l was told they
admired him for "his moral gram
deur," s his exalted piety;" that he
was was the {" bravest man The w&T pro-
duced on either side" and that they
were proud of him ss an American
citizen" &c. Surely there must be
eassugh of jchivalry and right feeling
on the part of all true Southerners to
cast mo blame upon me for having
been the meaua Of evokiug such senti-
fmsnts as these; and while every IN
stnct of my nature is loyalty and de.
votion to the South, I can testify tn at
there are many excellent Christians
at.the North who are anxious to blot
out all sectional differences and to ex-
tend to US the love and kindness
which makes nation that happy
people pc whoae God is the Lord.
