A Doctor Makes Some Remark able Statements About a South Carolina Negro. Columbia BUte. A somewhat remarkable story came from Smluda county short time ago about a negro who prettied in his sleep The man's name wan Major Perry. ' The tor' was hnught out of Saluda b) an evangelical preacher, who was llu-n on hia way out fif the State. Ad I'ff .rl was made to get con6rnation of ibis unusual eaae, and finally it waa joertaind lliat Dr. P. M. (.Won of Leesville knew Major Perry. Dr. Croaaon waa w ineu to for information.

Nearly every time ho preaches be has ooovulsion and his wife has to rub him and work with him, aa it looks as if he would die. He stops speaking while laboring under this nervous writhing, but will begin his discourse just where he left off whan the attack wears off and will go on and finish his sermon. He seems to be somewhat excited when be finishes his teruiou and wakea up and is unconscious of uoytbiog that has transpired.

I have together wiih a number of other physicians, tried to wake him up when in one of hia trances and while preaching, and it oan't be done. A man can caiily expend some of hia knowledge of mental philosophy in the study of tliis case. This ia not hypno tism, but it savors of Divine inspiration. Wliilo in this trance or deep sleep be ia unconscious of anything else transpiring arouod him and his active mind is totally unconscious as to what has transpired, but it is active and he docs bis preaching while in this sub-conscious stair, but wby his subconscious mind, active upon "ser monizing" alone, ia a deep mystery.

He is quiet and has the icpeot of his whole cuiuuiu oitjk for integrity and honor. He says he does not know anything about bis preaching and can't explain anything about it when awake. He stys, "Kelt called to preach when young, but I resisted the inclination or o all If what people tell me is true about my preaching, it must be of Divine power that I preach, because I resisted the call to the Master's work."

She says: Our three children took whooping cough last summer, our baby boy being only three months old, and owing to our giv ing them Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, thay lost none of their plumpness and came out in much better health than other children whose purcots did not use this remedy.

Daniel Webster was invited to Rich mond ia the fifties. He seeupud the invitation, eame to Richmood and went to tb Exchange hotel He was invited by the state IsgialViiro to address them and the people of Itiulnuoud, and a com mittee consisting of James Lynns of Richmond and Robmt E. Scitt of Fau quier, two of the iU'it eminent lawyers in the slate, were sent down to the hotel to escort him to tho eapitol building. They found Mr. Webster in a state of in toxication in such d gree that Mr. Lyoos aid to Mr. Sc ut : "This man can't make i Bpeoih. You must take his place. ' Mr. Scott replied, "No uisn can take the place of Daniel Webster." After delay, during which Mr. Web ster improved a little, he was asked if be would go to the cipitol. He replied "Yes." With great difficulty Messrs Scott and Lyons supported and helped him to the eapitol. When they reached the rotunda near the Washington statue, Mr. Lyooi said, "Mr. Webator, do you think you can speak?" "If you will give me i drink of brandy, yes." A messenger was sent to neighbor ing hotel and a bottle of braody brought. Mr, Webster poured out successively two goblets full and drank them off, straightened biaself up, shook himself as a lion might bare done, walked steadily and direotly to the position from wbioh h spoke, on the south porch of tbe eap itol, and in the presence of to audience of 5,000 people, wbioh consisted of tbe intellectuality and beauty of Riohmond, male and female, made his celebrated October speech, one of tbe greatest even of his life. Edward Everett related that on the day Webster replied to Hayne of South Carolina ho walked with him to tbe eapitol; that beseemed so badly prepared that he doubted him and feared that be waa not equal to the occasion; that just before be rose to epeak be drank a goblet of brandy and then made his great speech in reply to Hayne, wbioh is an English classic. Suoh was the effect of tbe bev erago on Webster. The liniment bottle and flannel strip are familiar objects in nearly every household. They are the weapons that have been used for generations to fight old Rheumatism, and are about as effective in the battle with this giant disease as the blunderbuss of our forefathers would te in modern warfare. Rheumatism is paused by an arid, sour condition of the blood. It is filled with acrid, irritating matter that settles in the joints, muscles and nerves, and liniments and oils nor nothing else applied externally can dislodge these gritty, corroding particles. They were deposited there by the blood and t an be reached only through the blood. Rubbing with liniments sometimes relieve temporarily the aches and pains, but these are only symptoms which are liable to return with every change of the weather ; the real disease lies deeper, the blood and system are infected. Rheumatism cannot be radically and permanently cured until the blood has been purified, and no remedy does this so thoroughly and promptly as S. S. S. It neutralizes the acids and sends a stream ol rich, strong blood to the atleeted parts, which dissolves and washes out all foreign materials, and the sufferer obtains happy relief from the torturing pains. , S.
