Hev. A. G. Dinwiddle, Presiding El

Di roii. 'li Columbia last AVednesday, on
liis way back home from the Bishops'
Mot t inn at Nashville. We regret to
learn that Mr. Dinwiddie contemplates
j oining the Missouri Conference. How
ever, it is a tine field for a young and
talented preacher, and we wish him
Hbundant success in all hia undertak
ings. Col. It. F. Loouey, of Memphis, has
leen in our town recent ly. He is a can
didate for Congress in the Memphis dis
trict, and we trust that he will be elect
ed. He towers above other jnen, in
physical stature, like Saul, when he
was crowned kin of Israel, and in all
the land there is none more comely.
His mind i like his bod, larRe and
strong, and well disciplined. He is a
philosopher and a statesman, and has
nothing of the spread-eaglo style, so
Itopular before the war. He is Just the
iiud of mn the people now want in a
representative at the national capi
tal, practical, ensiblo, statesmanlike,
conciliatory; a man calculated to bring
altouta better stateol feeling between
the sections latoly at war, by hi wis
dom, patriotism, and common senae.

A concert was given on Friday night,
the 3rd inst., atthe Atrican M. E. Church
by the school taught in that church
(Miss Anna Flippin, teacher.) The ex
ercises were commenced witn singing
iv the school, then prayer by Rev. B.
Williamson. The whole entertainment
was such as to give credit to both teach
er and pupils. We believe that God, in
his wise Providence, has Messed the
school, and the teacher has sowed good
seed in that part of tho vineyard
among the colored children. It is hoped
that the school may continue in its pros
perous condition.

safely out of Duck River. One of them
brokein two at Columbia, several others
on the Inkstand Bars, and a few at

thinks the reason b dU pot get through
safely was on account of the river being
so high that he could not land at night.
He has started a company ot men down

of the disabled rafts.

A healthy liver secretes each day about two

great amount of waste material taken from the

of noxious substance, which, therefore remains
to poison the blood and be conveyed to every

long withstand tbe pressure, but become vari
ously diseased. Tbe brain, which U the gieat
electrical centre of all vitality, is unduly stim
ulated by the unhealthy blood which passes
to it from tbe heart, and it fills to perform its
office healthfully. Hence the symptoms of bile
po'soning, which are dullness, headache, inca
pacity to keep tbe mind on any subject, impair
ment of memory, dizzy, sleepy, or nervous
feelings, gloomy forebodings and irritability of
temper. The blood itself being diseased as it
forms tbe sweat upon the surface of the skin,
it is so irritating and poisonous that it produ
ces discolored brown spou, pimples, blotches
and other eruptions, sores, boils, carbuncles
and scofulous tumors. The escape becoming
affected sooner or later, and costiveness. piles,
dropsy, dyspepsia, diarrhea, female weakness
and many other forms of chronic disease, are
among tbe necessary results. As a remedy for
all these various manifestations of disease, Dr.
