Science Advances.—As coon as an article pur
porting to be of utility has been tested, and its
merits ondoreod by public opinion, unprincipled
parties endeavor to replenish their depleted purses
by counterfeiting and substituting a spurious for
the gemiine article. Some time since, mercury, in
the disguise of pills, powders, etc., was given for
all diseases of the stomach and liver, while quinine
was freely administered for the chills. At length
Hostetler's Stomach Bitters made its advent, and
an entire new system of healing was inaugurated.
The benficial effects of this valuable preparation
were at onco acknowledged, and mineral poisons
suffered to sink into that obsenrity to which an en
lightened age has consigned them. There have been
many spurious bitters palmed upon thecommunity,
which, after trial, have been found perfectly worth
less, while Hostetter s has proved a blessing to
thousands, who owe to it their restoration to health.
For many years wo have watched the steady pro
gress of Hostettor’s Stomach Bitters in pnblic es
timation, and its benificent effects as a cure for all
complaints arising from the stomach of a morbid
nature, and we are free to say that it can bo relied
upon as a certain relief and remedy. Its proprie
tors have made tho above preparation, after years
of careful study and sitting, and are now reaping
Kentixo Residences.—Our unfortunate house
keepers who do not own dwellings are now busy
making terms with landlords and looking abont
for homes for next year. Good houses of this
kind are hard to find, and when obtained the
price demanded is very high. But when we re
flect that taxes and repairs have to be planked
down roundly, there is but a melancholy re*
sidunm left. We heard a man say yesterday
that he rented a house for $1,000 per annum,
and last year the expenses on it amounted to
nearly $500. It is worth all of $20,000, and
yon see this income from it don't begin to pay.
But whilst these large dwellings do not pay
cither to rent out or even to live in, small four
and five thousand dollar ones do pay, either to
own or to occupy. A man who loves his wife

Washington, July 29.—The British Govern
ment has appointed Mr. Guemey, the Rocorder
of London, one of the commissioners authorized
by the treaty of Washington, to whom claims,
therein provided for, shall be presented; and
the United States have appointed as commis
sioner on their pari, Judge Frazier, of Indiana.
The remaining commissioner is to be appointed
jointly by Great Britain and the United States,
and in case he is not appointed within three
months, he shall be named by the Spanish
Minister at Washington. Tho British Govern
ment has already appointed its agent, Henry
Howard. The United States has appointed as
their agent Hon. R. S. Hale, of New York. The

added by private contributions. The original
company will have no money left over after
building and equipping the road mapped ont

furnish the cars and horses to ran it after the
track is laid down. We do not know that they

In Need oy Rain.—We are now greatly in
need of rain hero in the city, to lay the dust, if for
nothing else. On the principal streets, and
even at the park grounds, it is becoming almost
intolerable.

A vest mean nigger was before the Mayor

him one of them, and because he was flatly re
fused, poisoned the whole lot. He ought to be

him as a dire alternative between that and
starvation.
A Baby Show.—Elsewhere in this morning’s
issue will be found a brief and interesting re
port of the Monroe county Fair held yesterday,
by a gentleman from this city. But his oral
report is somewhat fuller than that furnished
with his pen. There was a baby show at that
Fair, bnt he conld not stay to witness it in the
afternoon. He Bays, however, that the ugliest
man np there offered a beautiful silver cup for
the prettiest baby in Monroe county, and then
entered his own baby for the premium. There
was much interest and sympathy excited in be-1 to the hotel, attempting another rescue,
half of the little one, as it was feared the
judges would discover some feint outline of its
daddy’s features in its face, and if so, its chances
for the premium would be hopeless.
Grant at Long Branch.—It has long been a
wonder that our illustrious President should
spend so much time at this watering place.
Some persons assert that most excellent cigars
can be bought there. This cannot make any

Painful Accident.— Mrs. Margaret Ellis,
mother of Mr. Theodore Ellis, the druggist,
met with a painful and serious accident on Fri
day last. She was standing upon a piano stool
in her parlor, in the act of wreathing the por
trait of her deceased husband, when the stool
suddenly turned under her feet, throwing her
violently upon the floor and breaking one of
her arms.
The Bond.—The bond required by law of
the Tax Collector is about $90,000. There are
precious few people who can get endorsed for
that sum of money, and when a man can, he
generally has no use for such a small office as
that is. Candidates who have to give security
ought, in jostioe to the pnblic, first know
whether they can give it before asking an elec
tion. It puts the county to no small expense to
hold an eleotion at any time, and when only one
office is to be filled it is a first-class annoyance.

Negro Riot In Nortb Carolina.
Wilmington, July 29.—John F. Pickerell, a
New York broker, was brought here to-day on a
charge of fraud by the officers of the Wilming
ton, Charlotte and Rutherford Railroad Com
pany, and committed to jail in default of a $300,-
000 bail.
A bloody riot occurred at Goldsboro to-day.
About five thousand negroes arrived there from
Newbemo and the lower counties, on an excur
sion train, chartered by the Republican Execu
tive State Committee, to attend a mass meeting
at which Congressman Thomas, ex-Senator Ab
bott, Marius Erwin and R. O. Badger were to
be the speakers. There were very few white
people in town, and many of thenegroesbecamo
intoxicated. The police arrested one turbulent
negro, and while on the way to the guard-house
with this prisoner, the negroes rallied and res-
cned him. The colored police fired at the pris
oner, who was recaptured and taken by the
police to the Exchange Hotel. Abont 1,000
of the negro mob, with clubs and pistols, rallied
to the hotel, attempting another rescue. The
riot commenced by the negroes throwing brick
bats at the police and using clubs, when a cross
firing began between the police and mob. The
white citizens forbore, but are now armed for
the emergency. There is great excitement.
About thirty or more shots were fired. Three
or more whites wore hurt, one negro killed, and
one colored policeman killed and two wounded,
A committee of citizens, appointed by Mayor
Robinson, waited upon the Republican leaders
and Mr. Stanley, President of the A. & N. O.
R. B., and requested that the trains and ne
groes be carried away. To this Stanley replied
that he would not carry them away until he was
ready. 'When told that he and Thomas would
be held responsible for the disturbance, he re
plied : “Hold us responsible, and be d d."
Washington, July 29.—Tho Commissioner of
Internal Revenue is having refunded the cot
ton tax collected on rope and bagging, known
as the tare, which amounts to from 15 to 20
pounds on each bale. The amonnt of cotton
tax collected collected by the government was
about $80,000,000 and of this amount about $3,-
000,000 is the Tope and bagging, or tare tax,
which is now being refunded under section 44 of

T HE City Residence is new and comers Oak and
New streets; contains four rooms, hail and ve
randah. Well shaded. In an excellent neighbor
hood. No better water in the city, and convenient
to church. Sufficiently near the business portion
of the city for a business man, and yet far enough
removed to avoid the disadvantages attending a
residence too near. Time given on part of the pur
chase money ou both places. The other residence
beyond Tattnall Square and on the Columbus road,
contains five rooms, hall, verandah, basement and
all piu-hmldings. Water good. Grounds covered
with shade, both naiuuu aim uiuoo, o—
place is a great quantity and variety of fruit, inclu
ding a vineyard This property is admirably adap
ted for a boarding house for the Mercer students,
and the grounds offer superior advantages for gar
den purposes. It is a delightful home, and can
never depreciate in valuo. Also, I will sell several
choice building lots adjoining same. If not sold, I
will offer for rent, ending October. 1872.
