Sure Shot Squirrel Poison at Snipes & Kinersly's. Haworth, printer, 116 Court St. tf A MODERN MIRACLE. A Convert Oared of Ills Infirmities and Sees Heaven and Bell. '. Rev. It. C.-. Motor, presiding elder of the Methodist church, writes to the Ar lington Record of a modern miracle, fully equalling the healing of the leper by Jesus, as related in the Gospel. Dallas Dampman, a veteran of the late war, had lost a portion of his right nip bone by a musket ball, leaving a deep in dention in the flesh after its healing, the skin adhering closely to the bone and presenting a purplish and inflamed ap pearance. His left hip was struck by a piece of shell, which carried away part of the bone, six inches or more in length. Another musket shot passed through his left arm and still another across both feet. . From these wounds he suffered almost continual pain, and at times he could not sleep. A portion of the time he used crutches, but generally a cane. Was addicted to drink and never took any interest in religious matters, only to curse the. idea of there being a burning hell, and seldom if ever attending church. . Some two weeks be fore his conversion he heard a sermon by Rev. Frank Adkins, at Liberty school house which awakened him. At first he eought to drown his convictions by drink, but after becoming sober began to pray,- attended the meetings at 8 Mile schoolhouse, conducted by Rev. F. .A. Parri8h, and was converted the sec ond evening. Immediately he- passed into what is known as the trance state, where he remained for three hours and forty minutes.' This was on Saturday night, February 19th." Sunday night he was. suffering so severely that he could not' sleep, but .was in close communion with the Lord Jesus. - About 2 o'clock he asked the Lord, whose presence he was cognizant of, if he would not heal him and free him from his suffering. The Lord answered, "I will ; but do not ask- too much." - Immediately it thrill ing sensation, beginning in the upper portion of his body and passing 'down to the very tips of his extremities, relieved him of every pain, after which he soon fell into a quiet sleep.' ' ' On awakening the next morning he thought of his healing, then sprang out of bed as nimbly as if he had never been crippled, and with no need of crutches or cane. 'Since that time he has frequently passed into the ' trance state, in which condition he enters the habitation of the redeemed, meets and communicates with such friends and comrades as are there, and numerous others ; listens to there songs and is thrilled with the music which rejoices the: spirits of the "just made perfect." He has also gone down into the depths of hell, seen hun dreds whom he knew here, besides in numerable he never saw, their anguish, heard there wails, beheld the rain of fire and smoke of their torment, and smelled the fume of brimstone and felt the heat of the burning lake of fire. The wounded pants are now perfectly healthful in appearance, the skin is loose and natural, and the indentions in the flesh are beginning to fill out ;.' and no pain. - has returned since his healing. Mr. Dampman is an uneducated man in the main, being only able to read and write, and never read a word in the Bible until since his conversion, and yet bis visions are in full accord with the Word, while its experimental portions are as readily apprehended and realized by him as the most spiritual Christians in the church, and bis zeal, spirit, Christian life and work are in perfect harmony with our holy religion. After having been associated with Bro. Damp man for seven days in meeting and tested him by the Word of God and the most careful inquiry, says Rev. Motor, I give these facts to : the public, and am fully pursuaded that he is now -under the power of the Holy Spirit, and is'doing God's will. - : - PERSONAL MENTION. . Mr. F. S.
