A Habd Case, —We hare information of a
ta«? which recently occurred al Blair Furnace, a
soon distance below this place, which appears very
jßr d and yet we cannot blame the citizens of. that
I'AiUitv. The case is as follows: Erastus Kinsel
talisted in Captain Bell’s company, 125th Regi
ment, and at the battle of Antietam received five
i»«unds. After remaining in the Hospital for
:»me time he was allowed to come home to get
R eil. Having almost entirely recovered .from his
«oands he contemplated taking his place in
lie ranks, fiat a couple of weeks since be con
ned that loathsome and dreaded disease—
‘mall-pox—and died on Sunday morning last.
I P to the time of this writing (Tuesday .noon) he
oas not been buried, nor has any one gone to
*» place tb attend to that duty, ; conse
iwntly his remains lie in the house with his
lartily just as he died. It is sickening, and ap
pears inhuman, when we view the case and think
trn? situation of his family, and yet wo. cannot
l iarae (hose who have never had the disease for
w going to inter him, as it would he almost cer
;an contagion, bat we think there might be found
‘liore who have passed through it who would be
’’dim* to undertake the task.

Past twelve o’clock !—sang out the watchman,
as young Uelamere staggered down Liberty-street
towards his lodgings. :His attire was of Ae finest
material, but form there was none. He had been
drinking and had fallen once or twice, so that his
elegant toilet was now moat inelegantly disarranged.
Still he was not drunk, by no means. It was the
street commissioner's fault there were so many ob
stacles in the way How could lamps burn brightly
in such a smoky atmosphere? He would complain
to the mayor, to- morrow morning, and have
Watchy removed for insulting him. Show him to
his lodgings? He was paid to mind his own
business, and not for troubling gentlemen. The
watchman, however, guided him home, assisted
him in finding the key-hole, and departed, sining
lustily, j, "‘Past twelve o'clock, and a cloudy morn
ing !" ,
Late in the morning Delamere woke up with a
bad headache—a parching thirst—a sense of weak
ness—loneliness. The boarders were all gone
out. The servants were busy. He washed in
cool water, drank copiously of the healthy beverage
—met the landlady inr the hall, who, instead of
scolding, mildly said, “I am glad your mother
did not see you last night.” “So am I!’’ he lightly
said, bat the expression was like a dagger in his
heart. He was then ap object of pity. At dinner,
some of the boarders jeered him, some cautioned
him, a few advised him to persevere until he became
mure seasoned. Turning to one who was his
friend indeed, he asked him what be would advise
in this interesting cose. “Sign the pledge,” bis
friend blnntly replied. This was received with
laughter by all the rest. “Oh ! yes,” said one,
sighing ; “we have np confidence in your resolu
tious.” “Does your mother know you are out?”
sneered a second. ‘‘The pledge has a magic
power,” exclaimed a'third; “it is much more
binding than your word of honor.” “Sign,” said
his friend earnestly. Yes, do,” added the land
lady. “ I will,” he exclaimed, “ this very night,
at the meeting." AlLwere silent now they knew
his resolve was taken.
J. S. MANN,
Sic, }jro. tern.
“How didyou get home last night?” jocularly
asked the doggery keeper, as Delamere passed his
door in the evening. “ Your business is infernal,"
replied Delamere; “ you drained me last night of
twenty-five dollars, and then sent me home unat
tended, caring not whether I was lodged in the
watch-house :or crushed by the locomotive. How
did you treat other victims?” Boniface was taken
aback. Had he been a man, snch a speech would
have excited repentance, or brought on a fight,
but such creatures are half fiends, so he merely
remarked, “Codie in and take adrink; we are all
friends here.” “Drop the r from the word
friends,"contemptuously added Delamere, “and
you accurately describe your crew.”
Delamere signed the pledge, and would have
kept it against all. temptations save one. On earth
no influence save one could have shaken his resolve.
Poor fellow. Ope being could overcome any res
olution of his. Delamere was in love! Ope of
the prettiest and; spnghtliest of Eve's daughters
had woven a net of silk and gold around bitn. and
might have led him anywhere ! This beautiful
creature bad heard that her lover had signed the
pledge, and was proof against all temptation, and
conceived in her silly heart the desire to show her
influence over him was paramount.
“Take a glass of wine with me Delamere,”
she suddenly said, at a patty ; “ I feel fatigued."
“My dear, 1 cannot in honor; for I have signed
the pledge.” “Can not! Fiddlesticks! do you
think I would ask you to do anything unreasona
ble ?” Neither of these young creatures werp
aware of the fact, but amidst all those lamps,
devils waited the result. Good angels gathered
anxiously around the sideboard. She drew him
reluctantly to the fata) spot, and while the fiends
gibbered, arid the angels made signs of warning,
she poured ont the deadly portion. They drank.
In one moment she relented of her triumph, fur
he instantly filled again, saying, “ Drink now to
my dishonor ! J Laughingly he led her jo a seat,
and poured ont all the eloquence of love in
praise of beauty and wine. She became restless,
feigned illness, and he took her home. Returning,
the old landlord espied him. No resistance now!
His taste was excited; Honor no longer guarded
the portal. Late at night the watchman assisted
him to his lodgings. I Next tgorning, nothing but
liquid fire woidd drown bis conscience, flis career
was rapidly downward.
The lady,: what of her? Ye angels and fiends
who witnessed the temptation, what of her?
All ladies who read this article, as yon fear God,
and love humanity, sign the pledge.— Prabj/tenan

Da. o. ls. Kktixk :—I take pleasure in making Ibis vol
notary statement In favor pf a medicine prepared by yon
called “ Limit's Blood Sasicra.” I bad suffered for
five years with Scrofula which broke out on my head and
forehead so as to disfigure me very much* and took off the
hair when the disease made its appearance; it also broke out
on my arm above and below the elbow, and eat iota the
•kin and fieeh so as to expose a fearful sort. The disease
on my head went so far that several small pieces of bone
came oot. 1 was very week and low spirited, and had
given up all hope of ever getting well, as I had tried sev
eral skillful physicians and they did me no good. In Sep
tember last, 1861,1 was induced to try ** Likdsit’s Ik
peovxd Blood BxAicaia.” I most confess I bad no feith
in patent medicines, bat after I bad used three bottles ol
Blood Searcher) the nleers on my head and arm began to
heal. I have now taken eight or ten bottles, and my bead
and arm are entirely Well except the scare remaining from
the sores. I will also state that I had the rheumatism
very bad in my arms and legs. The Blood Searcher also
cured the rheumatism. lam now a well man, over forty
years of age, and I feel as suple and young as I did when
I was twenty, and have increased in weigfatjwenty pounds.
I would also state that the disease in my forefaeard was so
bad that when I stooped and lifted anything heavy, the
blood ran oat of the sore. Dr. Keyset bad a photoggapb
taken ot me by Ur. Cargo, the artist, after I began to get
well. It does not show my appearance as bad as it was
before I commenced taking the medicine. Yon can see
the photograph,, one of which is now in my possession,
and also at Dr. Keyser’e 140' Wood street. I would also
state that 1 took the Blood Searcher which was made be
fore Dr. Keyset commenced making it. Although it
helped me some, 1 did not recover tot until I got the kind
made by Dr. Keyset himself.' One bottle of bis did me
more good than two of the old. I believe It is a great deal
stronger and better. I have recommended the Blood
Searcher to a great many of my friends for various dis*
..eusee, and I believe it has helped the whole of them. You
may publish this if yon wish, and I am anxious that all
who are afflicted as I was may beenred. I live in this city.
