.Need Encouragement.
We seo from the Washington tele
grama and tho action of Senator Bbina
yesterday, that the cotton mil] i in Maine
are greatly in need of “encouragement.”
It is a sad fact that this need of "en
couragement” is quits general about
these times. Tho cotton growers, wo
srs satisfied, must he in diro need of “en
couragement.” When n man works all
the year round on a crop which, on the
Qoorgia average, brings him in not ten
dollars to the acre, with a not profit to
tbo land bolder so small that it la doubt
ful whether it would not be exaggerated
by stating it at a cipher, he is bound to
feel in need of “encouragement.”
He wipes hie brow in a thoughtful
manlier—ho ia puzzled how to cover deb
with available assets—may be ho rcfioi
on tho possibility of a loan or an exten
aion; but the idea of going to Congress for
“encoaiagemonl” never once enters his
head. He kno we, by sad experience, that
there ia but ono roaort for him—he must,
with tho help of God, take care of himaelf.
"Boot hog, or die,” ia aa adage preaenting
tohia mind the sola alternatives in his
case.
But with Mr. Blalno’a corutitnent fl
tbo -fr elands otherwise. Tho said con
stituent demands “encouragement.” from
tho government of tbo country. He
first invokes and obtains the action of
tho government forbidding tho poople of
tho country to buy thoir goods of any
body elao than bimaelf. This ia done by
putting on a tax varying from forty to
sixty per cent, of thoir value on al! simi
lar goods made in foreign countries.
This secures him a monopoly of tho homo
supply, and tho poople think that ia on
couragement enough, if not a little too
much, on the lino of justice and equity,
Thus encouraged, tho man of Maino goes
on rejoicing. Hia spindles and looms
hum and clatter with a ceaseless activity.
Ho turns out good* without end, and ho
pockota dividends which he doea not liko
to print.
Bat, by-and-by, ho ia again in difiionl-
ty. What is the tronblo ? Simply this
Stimulated and encouraged by hla boavy
profits nnd upward flight to wealth, ho
ho3 ovordono tho hnsinoss. Ho has made
more poods than tho ooantry needs. Tho
warehonsos and stores aro all fall, and
merobants will bny no more.
Now, what is to bo dono ? A cotton
farmer woald say, in suoli a case, we
know no other coureo than to sell for
what you can got or stop producing until
the excess of supply abates. But tho
Maino man don’t take that view of tho
case at nil. Hs calls on government
again. “I must have more encourage
inont.” And wliat now? asks govern'
meat. Why, says Maine, you gavo mo
the control of the homo markot—“you
compelled tho American pooplo to buy
from mo, and I have sold them all they
want or can pay for, nnd now I demand
that you Bhall furnish mo a market in
foreign countries. Your ‘oncouraging’
business ie not half comploto it you do
not provide mo a homo and a foreign
market, too.”
Bat how am I to da that ? asks Gov
ernment. You mnst start u general for,
eign trade. Yaa mnst pay ships to rnn
to foreign porle whore there is little or
no Amorioan trade now, in order to tost
Uie ohanoa of golting up a trade. Tho
ships can’t run without money. We oan'i
take the risk of fnruishiDg freights. You
must, therefore, stop forward and run
thcoo ships out of tho tax rnonoy of tho
poople, so ns to nsoertniu whet hor or not
somebody or something will not tarn tip
to start a trade with tliuso countries, and
so open adomandfor oar goo Jo.
Now this is n hard proposition. The
man who starts a shop whore there is no
trade, and no domand for his goods,
makes a gloomy venture; but if it should
bo happen that ho sells his goods, ho at
least will reap tho profits. Bat in this
case tho government incurs certain loss,
with no chanco of profit. Tho Maino
brethren arc, therefore, discreet wnen
they decline in advance to risk a dollar,
and doolaro that tho government should
take all tho risk and loss.
Naw, (ho rovonneu of tho government
aro not raised for purposes of trado and
speculation ; bnt if Ihoy wore, tho gov
ernment Is ontitled to a trader’s chance
of gain ns well as loss. The revenues
are In greater part tho hard-oarnod taxes
of poor pooplo, pooplo who have suffered
in oarning and denied thcmaelvos in pay
ing theao taxes. Far tho government,
therefore,to take those taxes and throw
thorn aw»7 in a doaporato vonlnro
to open a foreign market for tho Maine
manufacturers, would bo a cruel wrong.
It would be a gross broach of trust, just
as much as if the South should demand
and reoeivo four cents per pound bonus on
raw cotton, bccauso six to eight cents
don’t pay cost of production, and plant
ers need "encouragement.”
Hon. Wat. B. Flhmino.—Next to our
old friend, Col. Thompson, of Iho Savon
nahNcirr, this excellent and vonerable
gentleman was our choico for the brief
vacancy in Congress caused by tho death
of tho lamented Hartridge.
Judge Fleming’s record is without
stain or blemish in a long and honorable
career. As a judge he wss eminently
impartial, nnd all the money in the uni-
verso could not havo caused him to
swerve ono iota from the exact lino of
wbat he doomed his duty.
Feworof his decisions are said to havo
boen reversed than thoso of any of hia
associates on tho bench. Long sinoe,
.this able jarist should havo had a place
upon tho Supremo Court of tho State,
which he would have adorned and illus
trated.
In the sere and autumn leaf of a vigor
ous and well-spent life, it is especially
gratifying to his numerous friends to
have this mark of generous confidence
and appreciation bestowed upon him by
hia fellow-citizen.-'.
Of late years, the life of this excellent
man has been chequered by many adver
sities, and the hand of Providence has
pressed heavily upon him in the shape
of oft repeated family bereavements.
Hia cares and responsibilities were many
and onerous.
It is gratifying to know, however, that
aside from the honor conferred, his elec
tion will be of great assistance to this
venerable gentleman and his dependent
family, from the pecuniary benefits which
ill inure to him. Old Liberty has juet
cause to be proud of her worthy son.

No compromise of nouest
Debts.
The wholesale dealers and jobbers of
Atlanta have met in council and unani
mously adopted tho following pledge,
which has also received the endorsement
of the B yard of Trade:
Tho undersigned, representing the
wholesale trade and jobbers of the city
of Atlanta, have tbii day signed an agree
ment in writing that from and after this
date they will settle with no customer for
less than ono hundred cents on the dol
lar. with this limitation only, to-wit: In
r-tm any customer becomes unable to pay
hia debt ia full by reason of providential
cause, then, ia that case, each party to
this undertaking remain i freo to make
such adjustment os to himself shall seem
right This action is taken in the in
terest of tho good and true business men
of ths country as well ns for onr own
protection.
The names of forty-fire leadiog busi
ness firms, embracing about all of them,
arc appended to this manifesto.
We can but think this ruovo ia ono in
the right direction.
Whilo there aro some notablo instances
to tho contrary, it cannot bo denied that
the demoralization caused by tho lata
Bankrupt Act and enormous homestead
exemptions, has exerted n most baleful
influence upon the oommunity. Contin
ually is tho spectacle presented of men
who fail fall handed, compromise their
debts at one-half or one-fourth of their
par value, mako no actual showing of
their assets, and then are in full blast
forthwith again, with more sail set than
over before, and indeed actually worth
more than in all their previous lives.
These so-called compromiaes throw an
effectual wet blanket upon the business
operations of tho really honest and pru
dent dealer.
On this subject our contemporary, tho
Constitution, aptly remarks: “These
compromises not only strike tho whole
sale dealer under tho ribs, bnt they give
tho party benefitted an undue, unjust
and pernicious advantage over his rivals.
It is plain that tbo man who-buye goods
at thirty-threo cent3 on tho dollar can
undersell, and therefore outsell, his rival
who pays ono hundred cents. The
scheming, dishonest trader is thus ’en
abled to ruin perhaps hiB straightforward,
honest neighbor.”
Wo suppose tho “providential cause’’
which makes the exception in the resolu
tion of tho Atlanta merchants, means
losses by fire, shipwreck, sicknoss or
death. Of course suoh disasters ought
to enter into tho reckoning of settle
ments. But it may bo said, how can
many men who havo boen unfortunate in
business keep on and cam a support
without those compromiaes? Tho ans
wer is plain. If honest, they should
havo extensions from their creditors, and
usually obtain them. A Equare-dealingi
upright man is seldom driven to tho wall
by his creditors. If ho shows a disposi
tion to retrench, economise, and work, tho
truo policy of those to whom ho ie in
debted is to give him a chanco to get on
foot again and meet his obligations.
When tho party is so badly swamped
that thoro is no hopo for retrieving his
fortunes, then ho should surrender his
entire assots, retaining only what tho
law allows. If this surrender be abso
lute and bona fide, in not ono caso in
thousand will ho fail to obtain nn uncon
ditional releaso from his creditors.
But even in that event, lot him ever
bear in mind that if God blesses him
ajfd crowns his labors with success in
after years, ho is not absolved at tho bar
of conscience, and, bb a strictly honost
man, from making restitution to thoso
whoso money or goods ho used without
paying an equivalent.
Wo hail this action of tho merchants
at our Capital as tho first really decisive
and palpable stop towards tho restoration
of those good old ante helium days, when
a man's properly was held subjeot to his
legal debts and everybody recognized
that patent fact.
Rev. H. F. Hoyt.—A Corukction.—
The paragraph copied into this paper
from the Darien Gazette to the effect that
Mr. H. F. Hoyt had withdrawn his resig
nation and wonld remain permanently as
pastor of tho Presbyterian Chnrch of Da
rien, is a mistako as to tho last point.
Tho resignation waa withdrawn for tho
present, bacauso tho church was not will
ing to accept it, and because, os it waa
not to tako effect until Jane, no immedi
ate action w&s required. Tho only effect of
tho withdrawal is to postpone tho matter
fora time. Mr. Hoyt feels that his own
health, os well as that of his family, re
quires him to leave that section of the
State. Ha desires to find a home some
where in Upper or Middle Georgia.
This excellent gentleman has - been
known to tho writer from his earliest
boyhood. He is tho very embodiment of
sincerity and earnest piety, though withal
not strong physically, and we capitally
doabt whether he conld endure for any
length of time the wearing climate of the
seaboard. Wo trust that our friend when
hia Darien engagement terminates, will
find ministerial employment in tho hill
country of Georgia. He will prove a jor
and blessing to any community.

The Caufobnia Wheat Crop.—Ad
vices from San Francisco state that there

So severe ia tbe prevailing drought, how

bread-tuffa like sensible people until they
can sow their spring wheat. If not gotten

is feared that the season will be too
late for anything like a full and certain

EDITORIAL CORRESFOSDESCE.
Washington, D. C., Feb. 4,1879.
A HATPTJAIR
thiB morning are Hayes and John Sher
man. I don’t suppose cither of them has
fel*. so “bumptious” since they have been
in their present positions. They havo
mode and whipped a square stand-up
fight with one of tho strongest, mo3t ag
gressive and insolent of their foc3. Ho
hns bad his day of IriumpU and lapped
hi* fill of tho sweet cup of victory. To
day he is drinking Jeep of another soit
of cup, and, if ha ever does that kind
thing, must be clothing himself with
fall suit of damns. I say hallelujah!
don’t care a continental about Hayes and
Sherman, bat I do feel nearly as good
over Conkling’s defeat as they do.
It ought to have oo me last May.
Then we should not have lost
eight members of Congress and tho New
York State lioiet in November, and very
probably would nlso have gained a Sena
tor ia Conkling’s place. Democratic stu
pidity and Conkling’s blarney lost ns tbe
trick then, when winning woald nave
counted for so mneb. But belter late
than never. This time only fiva Demo
crats followed Conkling’s lead. They
were Messrs. Elton, Cockrell, Garland.
MoDonold and Voorhee?. Both the Geor
gia Senators, I am proud to reoord, help
ed in tbe good work of Conkling’s de
feat. There were many pairs, eo the to
tal voto was only flftj-seveD, the yeas
being thirty-threo nnd tho nays twenty-
four. Tne “stalwarts," of ccnrae, sop
ported Conkling, Blaine meekly ooming
to bis enemy’s heel liko a well-trained
spaniel. Tho carpet-baggers, exoept
Conover, took the same coarse, and last
night the sore-headed strikers of tbe New
York tnrkoy oock were Bwearing Hayes
bad bought him outright.
AS USUAL,
Business at this data is much further
behind in both houses than it should
and as the promise was at tho commence
ment of tho Christmas holidays. Sinco
that tima -very little progress ha3 been
made, and to date only threo of tho ap
propriation bills havo been passed—the
pension, consular and diplomatic and
military academy. Tho fortification and
Indian appropriation passed tho House
month ago and were ordered to a confer
ence committee, bat havo not yet been
considered. The naval appropriation
bill has passed tho Houso and also tho
Senate, but. with such amendments ’ |
tho latter body as will surely
send it to a conference committee.
Tho other monoy bills have not yet been
finished in tho House, and yet only
twenty-two days after to-day remain
As usual tho real work will bo crowded
into the last week of the session. That
week is the golden opportunity for jobs
and steals of all sortB, but sinco tbo Dem
ocrats have controlled the House tbe
banditti havo mado light hauls even
there. There is an awful lot of them
hero now, and one can scarcoly get
through tho lobbies and corridors
denso is the throng. It is real fun for
man who is even the least posted
watch tbo performances that go on
around tho doors and in the corridors.
They tell a sad story in ono aspect, and
shameful and disgnsting one in another.
They havo a comic side, too, and I have
had some real fya watching tho
discomfiture and scowling faces
of some of tho strikers when
the men they thought wore “all right”
either gave them tho slip or fooled them
outright. The women of the lobby, too,
aro unusually active and especially grac
ious and gorgeous. Thoy seemed to have
reserved not only thoir moat Btnnning
clothes but their sweetest smiles and tun
derest tones for the lost. I would like to
hot somothiug handsome that ia the next
twenty days tbo devil will shingle some
souls wita mortgages through this me
dium.
BhAVINO A FOOL
in a mortar is, I botiovo, advised against
in tho good book, but occasionally the
temptation is irresistible. In tbo Honsa,
lost Saturday, Hooker, Chalmers, mid
Singleton, of Mississippi, put ono Itragg,
of Wisconsin, a so-called Democrat,
through that process. Whon they were
throngh'with him the l&adioala looked for
tho pieces with tboir strongest glasses,
bnt withont much sucoess. He took
vary mcekiy, too, didn’t oven whine,
while he was going through tho mill.
Perhaps ho was upoechloss
tho audacity of thcoo “d d reb
els,” in skinning him, tho great General
Bragg, of the Yankee army. I don’i
think the country will hear from Bragg
any more on tho lino of hia former ro
marks. Ho end all men at the North
who agree with him, and who label
themselves for local end personal res
eons Democrats ought (o bo put on notice
that hereafter tbe dog must do the wag
ging nnd not the tail. If the latter in
Bisls on It, there will be tronble ; and
great many people feel it in their bones
that the dog will get off muoh the lightest.
I am just about as a warm a friend to our
Northern allies ao tho next man, but they
mnsn't overload us. Ths South is pret
ty solid, I imagine, on the question of
tbo great mass of so-called war-claims
coming np in Congress and charged to
her, bat she docs not like and will not
tamely submit to the heotoriugs and in
enits of Bragg and his like.
OLD-MAN-WnO-WALKB-ON-TIIE-WATEIt,
which hia name is Paul Boyton, gave
ono of hi3 exhibitions hero last Saturday
at the Navy-yard, which I was foolish
enough to attend. I use that adjective
becauso it was one of the most disagree-
ablo days oven of this exceptionally
shocking winter. Thera were about
2,000 more or less people as idiotio as
myself, and Lord! how tho wind did nip
their noses and redden their eyes. Hayes
and some of his Cabinet were there—thoy
aro great on freo shows, you know—and
other dignitaries who may generally be
found sailing in the Presidential wako.
To my notion Boyton is a largo success.
He did all he claimed to do and more,
and certainly demonstrated fully tho util
ity and completeness of his safety dres3.
He swam, walked, talked, laughed and
did pretty muoh everything elso be could
do on laud, and wound up by gathering
a lot of chips and sticks that were float
ing abont and mado a raft which he util-
ized aa a dining table, off of which he took
an apparently very satisfactory lunch.
Then he smoked a cigar and read a news
paper, and finally came out of the water
as warm and dry as if he had been in a
enng room. A. W. R.
QUICKEN THE CIRCULATION.
Don't let tho blood stagnate in your
veins. You can prevent its doing so by
increasing ite volumo and purity, by
stimaiating tho digestivo organs, and en
couraging assimilation, with that match
less vitalizing agent, Hostetter’s Stom
ach Bitters. People not slilicted with
any organic or inorganic disease, grow
wan and haggard simply because their
blood is thin, watery, deficient in nour
ishing properties and so meager m quan
tity that the extremities are very imper
fectly supplied with it, and the superfi
cial circulation extremely feeble. Hence
the bloodless appearauso of the counten
ance But when the Bitters ore used to
enrich and quicken the Mood, the rosy
has of health returns to the cheek, the
frama acquires substance os well as vigor,
the appetite improves, and no digestive
qualms interfere either with its gratifi
cation or the sabaeqaent tranquillity of
the stomach.
A Liver Disordered for Fifteen
Yeae3.—For fifteen years I was a great
sufferer from a disordered Liver, during
which time I tried many of the best phy
sicians ia the country and almost all the
patent nostrums recommended, all to no
effect, until I used Simmons’ Liver Regu
lator; and from the time I used it to this
day, which ia now several years, I have
en comparatively a sound man. having
•offered very little since at any time
from the effects cf my old disease. Con-

Some lime ago Wilbar F. Storey, of
ths Chicago limes, set the Western news
paper men on the qui vive by mortgaging
his newspaper building for S75,000. Ths
other day one of£his old reporters, who is
now at work on the Cheyenne Leader spied
Storey in a Pacific express ear and
straightway laekled him. Storey was
shy at first, bnt finally told the re'porter
that be was bonnd for San Francisco to
make arrangements for the publication
i tbe Times in that city every morning.
The Ban Francisoo edition of the Times
will be identical with the Chicago edi
tion, exoept in the matter of local nows.
Telegraphic sud editorial matter will be

THE GEOEOIA FKESS.
Snc Per Cent. Bonds.—Augusts, fol
lowing the example of the State and gen
eral government, has, through her Ciiy
Council, adopted an ordinance reducing
tho rate of interest of the new bonds,
scon to take tho placo cf those about to
fall due, from Bcvcn to six per cent,
Tuero will be issued in the new bonds
JG3.000, which, besides tiding over the
present emergency, will prove a consid
erable saving to the city. The Chronicle
says of thesa bonds:
“We havo not the slightest doubt of
the ability of the city to place tho new
bonds at par. Obligations of the State
of Georgia and of the Georgia Railroad
Company bearing tho same rate of in
terest command a premium, and Augusta
bonds sbcutJ bring equally aa high a
price. Their ultimate payment is guar
anteed by a sinking fnnd, and by tho
faith of a city that has never repudiated
a contract.
Why could not Macon follow suit, by
procuring a slight increase of taxation to
citato a sinking fnnd for tho liquidation
of her debt, the avails of which might be
placed in tho hands of a special commis
sioner, who shall be required to givo bond
that the funds thus raised shall be applied
jn no other way whatover. ThiB indepen
dent sinking fnnd would affotd a guaranty
for tbo redemption of tho new bonds at a
diminished rate of interest, to tako tho
place of the old as fast os they mature,
and ought to sell at par. TVo merely
throw out the suggestion for tho consid
eration of our city fathers and the public.
We aro wedded to no special relief pro
ject, but something must be done ero
long.
The Augusta Market Injunction
Case.—Tho complainants seek to enjoin
the movement before Judge Snead,on the
ground that tho election and vote—
wo quote from the Chronicle — was
insufficient to confer such authority to
build the markot; that the tame was not
appointed and held under any law pre
scribed by tho present constitution, and
not according to tho act of the General
Assembly of February, 1871; that notico
was not given at least thirty days before
said election, but was only given for ten
days before tho same, nnd did not specify
tho bonds or other liko ebligations to be
issued, or tho terms and conditions there
of; that tho assent of two-thirds of the
qualified voters of the city wsb not given
for tho building of a new market and the
incurring of a now debt nor required by
the resolution submitting the question;
that defendant has no authority to locate
said market in tbe centre of Broad
street, or to incur such new debt without
further legislative authority, and not
thereby while tho city debt exceeds soven
per sent, of tho assessed valuation of
taxable property.
Tho complainants also pray that the
defendant bo required to mako answer to
the following questions:
1. Wero aDy votes bought and Bold or
acquired for monoy, in favor of a market
or its location in tho center of Broad
street ?
2. What wa3 tho debt of tho city at
the adoption of the present State Consti
tution or afterwards ? Did and docs it
not exceed 7 per cent, of tho assessed
valuation of all the taxablo property in
the oity ?
3. What was tho number of registered
voters at the recent election ? Wbat was
the number of all the voters at or before
that time, known to the defendant ?
J udge Wm. Gibson, City Attornoy, ia
preparing tho answer to tho bill, which
will have a hearing before Judge Snead,
on the 13th inst.
A Handsome Testimonial.—Savannah
News: We were shown yesterday a very
handsome gold medal nnd pin received
by Mre. Chovcs, mother of our lamented
fellow-citizen Dr. Lmgdon A. Cheves,
who died in Memphis last surnmor, a
ipartyr to rihblo duty, accompanied by a
letter from tho President of tho Memphis
Howard Association. Tho medal, which
id beautiful in design, is awarded in tes
timony of appreciation of tho services
of Dr. Cheves. Tho pin 13 an elegantly
chased gold bar two inches long and a
quarter of an inch in width, with the in

Remarkable Cow.—Tho Sanderaville
Courier la responsible for tho following
morcean:
Mr. James Price, of Johnson county,
owns a cow that lies given birth to five
oalves within the last twelve months; two
of whiob first saw the light in January
1878, and the other three entered the
slippery path of life during the January
which has just passed away. This re
markable cow, now ten years old, has
given birth to triplets once and to twins
twioo, besides a single calf, making in all
eight calves daring hor sojourn in this
wicked world of ours. She knows that
negroes aro freo, and that sho mnst work
for her own living, or draw out a misera
ble existence. We received iho above in
formation from Mr. B. F. Brown, of this
county.
This reminds ns of another remarkable
cow owned by an honest Hiborntan, who
in recommending her, said she wonld
give milk year after year, withont having
oalves; “bcoanse,” said he, “it inns in
the brade; for she came of a cow that
niver had a oaIf.”
The same paper oomes to ns with the
following matrimonial slnnner:
He Wanted to Marry But Didn’t.
Wo understand that a certain yonng man
was to have been married to a yonng lady
of this county lost Saturday night; that
he bought the licento, made nil prelimi
nary arrangements to have the sacred
ceremony performed, and was at the res
idence of the yonng lady’s mother in dne
time. Ha was accompanied by a Justice
of the Peaoe, who did not correspond
with the old lady’s ideal of a magistrate,
and she objected to the performance of th
ceremony, tibe conld not be induced to
believe that he was an anthorzied officer
of the law, and said no snoh looking fel
low should marry her daughter. So she
finally grabbed a long pole and run the
high dignitary off the premises
Escape of a Prisoner.—Swainsbouo
Herald:
Mr. John M. Chance, who was arrest
ed and brought to this placo for prehmi
nary trial, on Monday lost, for tho cutting
of Mr. D. B. Kennedy, mention of which
was made in our last issue, escaped from
a guard on Monday night. The caso was
continued from Monday till Wednesday
folloning. In the meanwhile, in order to
keep Mr. Chance from being incarcerated
in jail. until he could havo a hearing, u
guard was appointed to take charge of
him till the day of trial. On Monday
night he told tbe gnard that he was sick
ami waa going to lio down. He pulled
off his boots and walked across the roeu. 1
toward the bed; but when he came oppo
site the door, which was open, sprang
oat and made good his escape.
Two Daring Robberies at Hampton.
Griffin Jfeics:
On lost Friday night there was a raid
made on the Hampton business men by
some thief or thieves. The store houso
J. J. Kalman was broken into, and a
considerable amount of clothing, dry
goods, eta, stolen. The actual amount
not known, but two or three hundred
dollars are known to have been stolen.
On the some night the saloon of James
Askew was broken open, and one hundred
ami fifty-seven dollars and thirfy-seven
cents in money was stolen, besides cham
pagne, liquor and tobacco, the amount
not known.

Fikk.—The Talbotton Register reports
the catching on fire of the store of Mr,
W. H. Martin in Talbotton, on Tuesday
morning. When first discovered it waa
burning between tno ceiling and upper
floor, nnd had made same headway toward
tho noithein side of tho houso. The
alarm was given, when all the town rush
ed to the rescue. Tho flames were
promptly extinguished. Loss not ascer
tained.
Guano.—Talbotton Register: Will gu
ano be used as extensively by onr farmers
this year as last? Of course it will. Few
farms will pay in this oountry without it.
When our lands were fresh, thirty years
ago, and cultivated by roliablo labor, no
ono thought about tho uso of a commer
cial fertilizer, much less of hauling it ten
or twenty miles to put on corn, grain or
cotton. With the slave emancipated nnd
our lands exhausted of thoir original fer
tility, came one of the greatest discoveries
of this age, that of the guano deposits in
the Pacifio islands and phosphate rocks in
the Cooper and Ashley rivers of South
Carolina.
Bust.—“Yes,” says tho Register, “this
is the word for it. Onr farmers aro quito
busy preparing for the new crop. New
fences have been put up, old ones re
paired. corners havo been cleaned and
their contents of vegetable matter dis
tributed over tho ground; and other need
ful preparations made to mako a big
crop. Labor in this section is plentiful,
and the negroes are contented.

B. M. Smith at Gainesvillo, on Saturday.
He was ono of tho oldost and most res-

was stricken with paralysis about a year

TYafo7iman'trnthfnlly says :
In all the relations of life, Dr. Smith

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
1 )AIN in the right side, under the
edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure ; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder blade, and
it frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism iu the arm. The stom
ach is affected with loss of appetite
and sickness; the bowels in general
are costive, sometimes alternative with
lax; the head is troubled with pain,
accompanied with a dull, heavy sen
sation in the hack part. There is gen
erally a considerable loss of memory,
accompanied with a painful sensation
of having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight,
dry cough is sometimes an attendant.
The patient complains of weariness
and debility; he is easily startled, his
feet are cold or burning, and he com
plains of a prickly sensation of the
skin; his spirits arc low; and although
he is satisfied that exercise would be
beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely
summon up fortitude enough to try it.
In fact, he distrusts every remedy.
Several of the above symptoms attend
the disease, but cases have occurred
where few of them existed, yet exam
ination of the body, after death, has
shown the liver to have been exten
sively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
Dr. C. McLane’s Liver Pills, in
cases of Ague and Fever, when
taken with Quinine, arc productive of
the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory to,
or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who are afflicted with this
disease to give them a fair trial.
For all bilious derangements, and
as a simple purgative, they are un
equaled.
