* The boiler of a small portable en
gine of about eight horse power, locat
eu near Johnston’s Depot on the C. C,
A R R., exploded one day last week on
account of the small quantity of water
iu it, killing the engineer and fireman,
both negroes. One of the men was
struck by pieces of the boiler and died
within an hour, while the other, who
was scalded, lived 36 hours after the
accident, before death ensued. Dr.
Teague attended both the men but
found it impossible to afford them re
lief,
A New Motor for Sewing Machines.
We saw yesterday, at the office of
Mr. J. H. Trump, general agent of the
Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machine.
Company, one of these machines run by
water-power, by means of the Backus
water wheel. The wheel is admirably
adapted to the purpose and is a marvel
of ingenuity. By its power the ma
chine is run without the slisrhest exer
tion on the part of the operator and is
under complete control, and can be run
jat any desired speed or checked in an
instant. The quantity of water re
quired to supply the wheel and give
the greatest speed desired is
remarkably small. The aperture
through which the water is supplied to
the wheel is scarcely one-eighth of an
inch in diameter. The wheel is quite
an ornamental piece of workmanship,
and is attached under the machine, out
of the way of the operator. The water
is turned on or off by means of a valve
controlled by the foot. The wheel is
exceedingly simple in design and can
be operated by any one, and is not lia
ble to get out of order. It will, no
doubt, supply a want long felt for a
cheap and durable motor for that in
dispensable article in every household
the sewing machine. Mr. Trump has,
we learn, introduced sevejal of these
wheels into our city, and the parties
using them speak of them in the high
est tarms.
SUPERIOR COURT.
Second Day's Proceedings—Light
Business.
The Superior Court, Judge Wm. Gib
son presiding, met at 9 o’clock yester
doy morning, pursuant to adjournment.
The call of the common law, equity
and other dockets was proceeded with.
Verdicts in several cases of minor im
portance were made, and judgment
rendered in others, while many cases
were assigned for trial at a future day
or put off until the next term.
About noon the special juries were
discharged until 8:30 o’clock this morn
ing.
The grand jury made the following
returns:
The State vs. M. McDonald. False
imprisonment. True bill.
The State vs. Absalom Thomas. Sim
ple larceny—cattle stealing. True bill.
At the opening of court, Thomas E.
Watson, who has for some time been a
law student in the office of Judge W. R.
McLaws, was examined for admission
to tne bar, the examining board, as ap
pointed by the court, being composed
of the following gentlemen: Judge Wm.
R. McLaws, John S. Davidson, Esq.,
Thomas H. Gibson. Esq., and Solicitor
General Davenport Jackson. Mr. Wat
son successfully passed through a
most searching and extended examina
-1 tion, conducted in a thorough, delib
erate manner by his examiners, and the
ready manner in which he auswered all
the questions relating ,to the funda
mental law of the land exhibited a
marked proficiency in his studies, and
an intelligent conception of the subject
in hand, hardly surpassed by any stu
dent who has previously been publicly
examined in the court room. Mr. Wat
son has a bright future predicted for
him in the forum of the law.
Court adjourned until 8:30 o’clock
this morning.
Death in the Nursing Bottle.
Mothers with infants will find a deal
of sound sense in the remarks of the
Scientific American given below, re
garding the patent Yankee apparatus
known as a nursing bottle for babies
by means of which the tender stomachs
of the dear little ones are required to
receive so-called milk through an un
cleaned tube which one of fine sensi
bilities cannot bear to smell. We
recollect that while in the army and
on the march we once in a while would
obtain a little milk in our canteen.
Afterward, no matter how much it was
washed and scalded the canteen
smelled “loudly” for weeks from the
decaying particles of milk adhering to
the sides, though water placed in it did
not taste as it smelled. Still, there
was the bad effect experienced in the
stomach.
Every sensible parent will endorse
what the editor of the Scientific Ameri
can says :
“There is another prolific source of
infant mortality to which we wish now
to direct special attention, namely, the
patent nursing bottle. It consists of a
rubber tube, one end of which is held
in the child’s mouth; the other end
passed through a cork, is attached to a
glass rod which descends to the bot
tom of a bottle of so-called milk. We
might write a column on the dangers
that resides in the milk, unless special
care has been taken to obtain it iresh
or by suitably diluting pure condensed
milk. But this danger is well known,
and our business is at present with the
bottle, or rather its dirty tube, which
should never be used more than once,
then thrown away and anew one
bought. Even when new, these white
tubes, impregnated as they are with
oxide of zinc, are not unobjectionable,
far worse are they when saturated with
sour milk, germs of putrefaction, decay
and disease. Some of these child-mur
dering Yankee inventions have reach
ed Berlin, and have called forth the
following from a practicing physician
of that city : “ The supposed advan
tage of these bottles consisted in this,
that they can be placed beside the in
fant in bed, while other bottles must
be held in the hand all the time. What
sensible mother would leave a child
with a bottle without watching it? The
danger of the bottle consists in this,
that it is absolutely impossible to
clease it. When sucked on, little par
ticles of milk become attached to the
tube and cork ; these curdle and soon
turn sour. If some of this deposit be
•placed under a microscope, we see in
numerable bacteria, organic beings
which indicate decomposition and de
cay. At every meal the child draws in
thousands of these germs. The de
composing process acts updn what it
finds in the mouth, assophagus and sto
mach, and the result is diarrhea,
cholera infantum, etc. I will here
expressly remark that the usual
method of placing the apparatus
in water, or merely rinsing it out with
a stream of water, is in no way suffi
cient. Some dealers sell a suitable lit
tle wire brush with the bottle, but even
this does not answer the purpose, for
the apparatus is not clean by a long
way after drawing the brush through
it several times; and who will take the
trouble to clean it so thoroughly eight
or ten times a day? How much time
it would require ! Another disadvan
tage is that the bottle was air-tight,
and a partial vacuum is formed which
renders sucking so difficult as to ex
haust the child, and it stops before its
hunger is satisfied. Hence, parents, ye
who are compelled to feed young child
ren with a bottle, throw away this ap
paratus, which can only bring destruc
tion upon your children, and either se
lect a bottle with a glass mouth-piece,
wjiich is perforated with a small hole
and can be drawn directly over the
neck of the glass bottle. The iarge
mouth-piece or nipple can readily be
turned inside out and thoroughly
cleaned and rubbed with dry salt.”
Affray at Johnston’s Depot, 8. C.
Monday afternoon quite a serious
affray occurred at Johnston’s Depot,
on the Charlotte, Columbia and Augus
ta Railroad, between two men named
Elijah Watson and Julian Mobley, in
which the former was probably fatally
wounded.
About six o’clock Monday evening
the two parties met and immediately
pommenced the difficulty* by drawing
their pistols and shooting, it is said,
both at the same time. Mobley fired
five times —two of the shots taking ef
fect on Watson, one in the right iuug
and the other in the left arm. Watson
fired twice and snapped his pistol three
times—thus showing he endeavored to
be equal with his antagonist. One of
the shots struck Mobley on one hand
and the other on one of his legs, but he
was not seriously hurt.
Watson was taken in charge by his
friends after the shooting and attended
by Dr. Teague, who considered his in
juries fatal. Mobley, we learn, went
directly to his house, where he awaits
arrest, considering that he acted in self
defense. Our informant, an intelligent
gentleman living in the vicinity, is not
aware of the origin of the difficulty be
tween the two men.
Port Royal Railroad Endorsed Bonds.
Port Royal Railroad bonds endorsed
by the Georgia Railroad and Banking
Company are nearly all withdrawn
from the market, and but few are now
offering. We understand quite a num
ber have recently been picked up,
privately, on European account, and
are not likely to return until maturity.
Our people are very remiss in allowing
such first-class securities to pass into
the hands of foreigners at less than
par, else it must be attributed to the
stringency ofc the money market.
The Fire at Johnston’s Depot, S. C.
From a gentleman from Johnston’s
Depot, S. C., a sufferer by the fire
which occurred at that place early
Monday morning, we learn the follow
ing:
The fire originated iu the drug store
of Dr. T. J. Teague, and, as previously
mentioned, soon spread to the adjoin
ing buildings, which were consumed.
Five stores and two dwellings were
burned, the total loss being about
$30,000, with insurance only to the
amount of $6,000. • The following are
the names of the losers: P. L. Wright,
dry goods and groceries; insurance,
$2,000 on stock, and $2,000 on building.
J. E. Mobley, miscellaneous stock
and post office.
Calhoun & Mobley, miscellaneous
stock.
Dr. T. J. Teague, drug store —where
the fire originated—loss, $4,000; insur
ance, $2,000.
Gibson & Waters—miscellaneous
stock.
G. J. Toney—miscellaneous stock.
Pugh Jones—liquors, &c. Stock all
saved.
Mr. Mobley saved a small quantity
of bis stock, and Mr. Toney saved also
a small portion of his stock. The fire
has destroyed fully one-half of the
thriving village of Johnston’s, leaving
only seven buildings standing; but the
enterprising citizens, with commenda
ble energy, have commenced the work
of rebuilding, and do not intend to let
the grass grow under their feet, not
withstanding the efforts of incendiaries
to retard them in their onward pro
gress.
Agriculture a Fraud.
[Cincinnati Times.]
The basest fraud of earth is agricul
ture. The deadliest* ignis fatuus that
ever glittered to beguile and dazzled to
betray is agriculture. I speak with
feeling on this subject, for I’ve been
glittered and beguiled and dazzled and
destroyed by this same arch deceiver.
She has made me a thousand promi
ses, and broken every one o? them.
She has promised me early potatoes,
and the rain has drowned every one o£
them; late potatoes, and the drouth
has withered them.
She has promised me summer
squashes, and the worms have eaten
them ; winter squashes, and the bugs
have devoured them.
She has promised cherries, and the
curculio has stung, and they contain
living things, uncomely to the eye and
unsavory to the taste.
She has promised strawberries, and
the young chickens have devoured
them, and the eye cannot see them.
She has promised tomatoes, and the
old hens have encompassed them.
No wonder Cain killed his brother.
He was a tiller of the ground. The
wonder is that he didn’t kill his father,
and then weep because he hadn’t a
grandfather to kill. No doubt his
Early Rose potatoes, for which he had
paid Adam $7 a barrel, had been cut
down by bugs from the headwaters of
Euphrates. His Pennsylvania wheat
had been winter killed, and wasn’t
worth cutting. His Norway oate had
gone to straw, and would not yield five
pecks per acre : and his black Spanish
watermelons had been stolen by boys,
who had pulled up the vines, broken
down his patent picket fence and writ
ten scurrilous doggerel all over his
back gate. No wonder he felt mad
when he saw Abel whistling along with
his fine French merinoes, worth $8 a
head, and wool going up every day.
No wonder he wanted to kill some
body, and thought he’d practice on
Abel.
And Noah’s getting drunk was not at
all surprising. He had become a hus
bandman. He had thrown away mag
nificent opportunities. He might have
had a monopoly of any profession or
business. Had he studied medicine,
there would not have been another
doctor within a thousand miles to call
him “quack ;” and every family would
have bought a bottle of “Noah’s Com
pound Extract of Gophir Wood and
Anti-Deluge Syrup.” Asa politician
he might have carried his own ward
solid, and controlled two-thirds of the
delegates in every convention. Asa
lawyer, he would have been retained
in every case tried at the, Ararat
Quarter Sessions, or the old Ark High
court of Admirality. But he threw
away all these advantages and took to
agriculture. For a long time the
ground was so wet he could raise
nothing but sweet flag and bulrushes,
and these at last became a drug iu the
market. What wonder that when at
last he did get half a peck of grapes
that were not stung to death by
Japhet’s honey bees, he should have
made wiue and drowned his sorrows
in a “flowing bowl.”
The fact is, agriculture wouid de
moralize a saint. I was almost a saint
when I went into it. I’m a demon now.
lam at war with everything, I fight
myself out of bed at 4 o’clock, when all
my better nature tells me to lie still till
7. I fight myself into the gardeu to
work like a, brute, when reason and in
stinct tell me to stay in the house and
enjoy myself like a man. I fight the
pigs, the chickens, the moles, the birds,
the bugs the worms —everything in
which is the breath of life. I fight the
docks, the burdocks, the mulleins, the
thistles, the grapes, the weeds, the
roots—the whole vegetable kingdom. I
fight the heat, the frost, the hail—iu
short, I fight the universe, and get
whipped in every battle. I have no
more admiration to waste on the father
of George Washington for forgiving
the destruction of his cherry tree. A
cherry tree is only a curculio nursery,
and the grandfather of his country
knew it. I have half a dozen cherry
trees, and the day my young George
Washington is six years old I’ll give
him a hatchet and tell him to down
with every cherry tree on the place.

Discovered. —Dr. Pride has, after a
long series of experiments,[discovered
a new process of extracting the subtle
flavor from every delfpious fruit and
aromatic. In his Flavoring Extracts
the characteristic taste and freshness
of the real fruit is preserved, and by
his process so highly concentrated that
but a small-quantity is required to im
part their peculiar flavor to any article
in which they may he used. Ladies
that wish something superior in the
way of flavoring extracts or baking
power should purchase Dr. Price’s, for
we can assure them th, t they have no
equals. Dr. Prke’s Powder is not sold
in bulk, loose powder sold as his is a
fraud upon the public.

The Maintenance of Health. —The
maintenance of health is often more
difficult than its recovery. Vitiated
conditions of the atmosphere, un
healthy occupations, extremes of heat
or cold, and constant exposure to
rough weather, are all ho many provo
cations of disease. There is but one
sure way of effectually, guarding the
system when thus subjected to influ
ences, prejudicial to health, and that
is to establish, by judicious tonic and
alterative medication, vigor of the body
and regularity of its {unctions. The
properties of an invigorant and cor
rective are happily combined iu Hos
tetter’s Stomach Bitten*, which, at the
same time that it infuses unwonted
vitality into the system, overcomes all
tendency of the stomach, liver, bowels
and urinary organs to deviate from
regularity in the discharge of functions
upon which the welfare of the entire
physical organization is dependent.
Health cannot be more effectually
maintained than by ushig the Bitters.

INCREDULITY.
HOW potent is this trait of the human
mind. The Bible refers to it and
says: “Were an angel to come down from
heaven, ye would not believe.” It is the
cause of much injury. We are disposed to
doubt the sincerity of our best friends, and
so far is it indulged, that L often leads to
misanthropy.
This is particularly applicable to the vir
tues of many truly valuable remedial
agents, however strong they mav be en
dorsed.
Reader, if you have Dyspepsia, Fever
and Ague, Sick Headache, Torpid Liver,
Bilious Colic, Kidney Disease, Flatulence,
Constipation of the Bowels or General De
bility, and hesitate to use Dr. Tutt’s Livek
Pills, write to him and he will furnish you
with hundreds of certificates from the
most reliable men and women in the coun
try, who have been cured by them, of whom
you can make direct inquiry. It Will cost
you but a postago stamp. The proprietor
solicits the investigation of all who need a
truly valuable medicine.
HOW AWFULLY CULPABLE
MUST be those afflicted with Consump
tion, Bronchitis, Asthma, or any dis
ease of the Lungs, Throat or Chest, who
neglect to use Dr. Tutt’s Expectorant
after reading the following letter, written
by one of the most estimable ladies in the
South:
Savannah, Ga., April 28, 1872.
Dr. Tutt In gratitude for the benefit
received by the use of your Expectorant, I
do cheerfully add my testimony to its won
derful power in cur ing deep-seated coughs.
For several years I suffered dreadfully with
a cough, attended with great difficulty of
breathing. I was induced to try your Ex
pectorant, and it gave almost immediate
relief. I took six bottles, and am now per
fectly restored. It is about five months
since I began its use, and I have not had an
attack since. It has been a great blessing
to me; I cannot afford to be without it and
heartily recommend it to all who have'lung
or throat disease. Very respectfully,
Mrs. A. M. Wellborn.
