€\n gailu City Printer—Official Paper LARGEST CITY (’IKCULATION. WEDNESDAY MORNING...Sept. 26,^86* THE LONE SENTEY. U y .JAMES R. RANDALL. ‘Twos in the dying of the day, The darkness grew so still, The drowsy pipe of evening birds Was hushed upon the hill. Athwart the shadows of the vale, Slumbered tho monos might, And the lone*entry paced his rounds To guard the camp that night. A grave and solemn man was ho, With deop and sombre brow, Tbo dreamful eyes seem boarding up Some unaccomplished vow ; His wistful eyes gazed o’er the plain, Beneath the starry light, And with the murmured name of God, He watched the camp that night. The future opened unto him Its grand and awful scroll— Manassas and the valley march Came heaving o’er his soul— Richmond and Sharpsburg thundered by With that tremendous fight, Which gave him to the angel host That watched the camp that night. We mourn for him who died for us, With one resistless moan ; While up tho Valley of tho Lord He marches to the throne. Ho kept tho faith of men and saints Sublime, and pure, and bright; lie sleeps—and all is well with him Who watched tho camp that night. Brothers ! the midnight of the cause Is shrouded in our fate; The demon Goths pollute our halls With fire, and lust, and hato; Bo strong —be valiant—be assured — Strike home for Iloaven and Right.! Tho soul of Jackson stalks abroad And guards tho camp to-night! Rail Road Schedules. Change of Schedule of South Car olina Rail Road Company. South Carolina R. R.

The PAIN KILLER is a purely reset ble compound ; snd while it is a most *. eient Remedy for Pain, it is s perfectly safe Medicine even in the most unskillful hands. FOR BUMMER COMPLAINT, Or any other form of bowel disease in chil. dren or adults, it it an almost certain core snd bos, without doubt, been more success ful in curing the various kinds of CHOLERA than any other known remedy, or oven the most skillful physician. In India, Africa and ChiDa, where this dreadful disease ij ever more or less prevalent, the PAIN KILLER is considered by the natives, as well as Eu ropean residents in those climates, s SURE REMEDY'. Asa Tonic for the Stomach, it is unrivalled. A few doses will relieve se vere cases of INDIGESTION, and it is often a perfect cure fer DYSPEPSIA, in its most aggravated forms. Its tonic and stimulating properties, arousing the system to vigor and action, render it a most effec tual cure for COLDS AND COUGHS, when used according to directions. For external applications, it is unsur passed by any medical preparation. Rheumatism and Neuralgic Affections are quickly relieved and often cured by it. Any' Soreness in the Muscles or Joints can be relieved by its application. It cures in stantly tho most violent TOOTHACHE. • It should always be kept near at hand, to be used in cases of severe BURNS or SCALDS. If applied immediately, accord ing to directions, it will give instant relief, and prevent blistering. It is peculiarly adapted to the wants of SEAMEN, and persons making sea voy ages, and no vessel should sail without a supply of it. One Captain writes us: “I have made several voyages—often with emi grants, and though I keep a good Medicine Chest, and I have several times had a good deal of sickness on board, I have found the PAIN KILLER so efficient in all cases, as to entirely preclude the use of all other Medicines.” Prices—2s Cents, 50 Cents, and $1 per Bottle.
