The Southern Historical Society
Paperg 1
We have received the October, No
vember and December numbers of this
interesting periodical, combined in see
volume. It is filled with valuable Sin
formation and historical facts relating
to the late struggle for Southern inde
pendence, and in this field of labor is do
ing a noble and important work. The
opening paper is entitled "Forgotten
Testimony on State Sovereignty," by
Charles liarriss, aud is a very able docu
ment, not only to every, lover of the
'Lost Cause," but Jto every one who
would like to preserve the history of the
events connected with that fearful strue
gle. The yearly'subscription is only $3
and it is published by Rev. J. William
Jones, at Richmond,; Va., to whom all
communications should be addressed. .
Vaccinulon is. Rheumntlsm.
We clip the following from the loca
columns of I tue Petersburg Index-Appeal.
It presents to us a peculiar case,
but one which comes well authenticated.
We publish it for the benefit of oar rheu
matic readers : "
As an instance of "new application of
old remedies it may be mentioned that
a lady of jthia city, who has suffered
constantly and severely with rheumatism
for many months past, has been almost
entirely I relieved of her sufferings by
vaccination. As soon as her vaccination
had taken well, the rheumatic suffering
began to decrease, and continued to de
crease as recovery from the effects' of the
prophylactic progressed, until now she is
almost entirely restored, to natural
health , and. whereas, she was lately in
almost constant bedily p-iin, and could
scarcely move without some pain che
now enjoys delightful easel If vaccina
tion can be proved to be a puro for rheu
matism, as well aj a preventive of small
pox, tho discovery will be hailed with
joy and gladness by many thousands.
Let the matter be investigated by the
faculty and well tested.
"The Kewt and Observer was mistaken
in saying that Judge Russell's name had
been withdrawn from the contest for the
U. S. Judgeship of this district, in tavor
ot Judge Seymour. There has been no
change of late in the status of the ques
tion. Tho affair is still 44 hitched and
hanging up."

rI he Banker's Daughter is to be pre
sented at the Opera -House this evening
by the Collier Combination Troupe and
we are glad to learn that the prospects
are good for a large house. Comment
ing on its presentation in Wheeling, W.
Va., the Intelligencer, of that city, says :
The Opera House was filled last even-
ring to witness the second presentation
iu this city or that popular society play,
v-fiie Banker s Daughter." It can be
Safely said, without fear of contradic
tion, that the organization that appear
ed on the boards in this city for the past
two nights is the hnest one that has
been seen in Wheeling since "Diploma
cy" was performed, three seasons ago.
Every member 01 this combination is an
artist and perfectly fitted to the part.
Everything is said and done evenly,
naturally aod without affectation, and,
for the time, each seems to live and. feel
the part assigned. Given, as the dra
ma is, with elegant costumes and hand
some stage accessories, ; the seemm?
lack of appreciation 'show'' by the au
diences is deplorable. Both evenings
toe absence of old theatre-goers
shown was noticeable, and the
coldness by those that were
present must have been depressing
4o the company. The play abounds with
fine situations that appeal to one's sympa
thies, but yet last evening onjy.once or
twice did the audience acknowledge the
same. e must again speak in praise
of the performance of Miss Florence
White,' who assumed the title role. Her
acting was perfection itself. Mrs. Walcot,
as "Mrs. Browns, ' waa delightful, and
farther, it is impossible to speak in da
tail, all were so good. It is hoped that
Collier's Combination may visit Wheel
ing again and be greeted with packed
home. I .
