Guardian.] Last Friday morning’s Augusta bound train rolled up to the depot at McNeill’s on time, and the passengers and those of the citizens congregated there for business witnessed a that either froze them with ■ ustoi l xsstwz w = ' Jt two Massachuset s S- • * at the station to board the train,having determined to go ••north” to spend their summer vacation. The platform was black and redolent with negro men, women and children, the latter composing the scholars of the institu¬ tion presided, over by these school marms. The hour of parting having arrived, the goodbyes to the adults were most affectionately said as the hearty hand shaking went round, and sorrowful adieus were bidden* So far the scene was interesesting, but when the teachers reached the scholars the exhibition became nauseatii g to those witnessing it. The school-marms began to kiss the little negroes with a relish, and tor a short time the business like “smack ! smack ! smack I” of oscula¬ tion went on, until the ruby lips of the white instructresses had sipped the nectar from the capacious mouths of every blessed little African on the platform and bestowed a number of “busses” on the shining black faces of negro women. The “toot-toot” of the steam whistle resounded above the kissing throng, the females stepped on board the cars,and the train moved off. If it was the intention of these females to disgust the passengers and citizens by this spectacle, tiny succeeded. Such sights are new to people in South Carolina, and they are not disposed to indorse aid or abet the performers. The female teachers are respectively aged about nineteen and twentv-two years. The name of one is Miss Carrie 1 E. Warren, of Newton Mas*., and the other bails from Erving, Mass., and is k „„w„ „ urn cur, They are employed by some benevolent society in the north, and no doubt re* gard themselves as missionaries in a 1 benighted land; but for the sake 0 f decency and good order they should ' not give any more public exhibitions «f their love for the negro or practicle les sons in social equaUy. We do not think the society which employs them will approve of this method of enlight¬ ening the blacks, and we are nut quite prepared t believe, even after the dis gustmg performance at McNeill’s Sta tion, that trie people of Massachusetts, as a whole, , , fond , of the southern are so black as these “downeast” scboolmarms . seem to ue. j —Ayer’s Sarsaparilla requires a smaller _ ,, dose, , and is more effactive,dose for dose,than any other blood medicine, ‘ " _ ] —Large lot Flour at R.

C.,March 13,1884.— VTour most valuable medicine (Swift’s Specific) has done me so much good that 1 feel like saying this for I lie ben¬ efit of those who suffered like I did. I was poisoned by poison oak, and saw not a well day for six years, until I used Swift’s Specific. In the six years used most every kind of medicine, but none had the desired effect. After using six bottles of Swift’s Specific 1 am restored to perfect health—with no sign of that awful poison left. David Nksbet. - 1 had for thirty eight years suffered every spring and summer with poison oak, which i contracted in bathing when a boy. I tried everything for it, including many physicians, but with out any benefit. I took six bottles of Swift's Specific (S. S. S.Jfour years ago and it cured me sound and well. Three summers ha ve passed, and I have had no return of it. Joseph Beasley, Columbus, Ga. BLOOD TAINT.

The Mercury works its way into the tissues, producing rheumatism and decay lot the bones. The Iodide of Potassium eats away the coating of the stomach" and dries up the gastic juices which di¬ gest the food, and the patient lingers ..long in agony or is glad to die to get away from miseiy. Swift’s Specific is a complete antidote to all this poison, It eliminates Mercury from the system removes the evil effects ot Iodide of "#"* ...... The Swift Specific Co.. Drawer 3, Atlanta, Ga. What is the Cause. Editors, as a rule, rarely ever agiee, and consequently are continually at loggerheads. They will take up the same subject and discuss it in their col uiniis, give it a thorough analyzing, show up all the points, and if you will take their articles and compare them, there will always be some point of dis agreement. There, are, of course, ex ceptions to this as well as to all other genera! rules, and we propose to give an instance,where three Georgia editors are unanimously of the same opinion : The editor of the Southern World, published in Atlanta, says : “1 know the proprietors of Bradlield’s Female Regulator, and can vouch for their high standing in this community 1 also, from my own knowledge, can tes tify that it is a great boon to women, and has no superior, and every lady ought to send for and read their nook on female diseases, which they mail fiee.” The editor of the MilledgevilleChron iele says he considers Bradlield’s Female Regulator the greatest blessing ever discovered for suffering women; says lie knows of six ladies in his communi ty who have been cured sound and well by its use, and he would advise every »»«' Eng wo.,.an to use it. From the editor of the Gainesville Eagle: •‘I consider ra i field's female Regulator the best medicine ever com —Z * 1 am well acquainted with a lady who never had any health until she commenced using it. It gave her im mediate relief, and from that time un til now she has enjoyed the best of health. I can say with hearty good will, -God-speed Dr Bradiield in the 8il,e of his never-failing Female Kegu ■ lator.” - Send for our book containing valua¬ ble information for women.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER _ [From our regularCorrespondent.] \\ AsmN'crox,D.C..lune 10th. 1881.— This is the season of comnieneements in Washington, and troni about the middle of May to the middle of June there averages at least one a d ay. They are great occasions for the display of (lowers, and the stranger asks win re do they come from ? The fact is, Wash ington is a city of parks and trees and flowers, and the visitor at this season is overwhelmed with the beauty and loveliness that everywhere surrounds him. It is now stated that President and Miss Cleveland will not occupy the cottage at Soldiers’ home. They iu( , so well pleased with the White House j and its surroundings, the beautiful lawns and clusters of trees and floweis, as well as all the delightful wallfS and drives in and about the West End and along the winding valley of Rock Creek, and in fact hi eve.y direction they may go, that limy feel that it would be a matter of affection to leave all this loveliness in the vain effort to find something more enchanting. With the beautiful attractions of the Capitol, inviting to thoughts of peace, plenty end paradise, there are now gathered here about 450 representa Lives ol the different societies of char 'ties and corrections throughout the country,* who have met in National Conventions to perfect plans h r the good of the poor and the eon t ot ion of those who made a falsej step in the drama of life. As preliminary to tm teriiig on their labors, they yesterday visited Mount Vernon on the steamer Corcoran. It w as a notable company ; ; ,11 but seven were men, and the major ity of them were of those who have spent many years of their lives m doing good. At this season Washington is the Mecca to which all the devotees ol love and matrimony Hock, and there is not iV train or a boat that arrives that does not bring from one to a dozen newly wedded couples, or couples who, lleeing from old inaid aunts,heartless brothers, ov »r particular parents, find hero the ever willing Squire or smiling :"^ 2 , ............... who have just committed it come, but occasionally from the land of many marriages they come, as was recently the case from Monnondon). In this case the delegation was composed of Monogamists who insist they are much-abused community, and if their statements are cmivet it would appear that such is the case. They insist that the Edmunds law is less ini ringed by Mormons I h an others, while it is only executed against the former, They stale Hint there aio less than 5,000 peo pK who practice polygamy in their e.hurch, while there are many more thousands outside, who, il they do not profess, practice polygamy* anil they ask that a thorough investigation be made by the President through a com¬ petent authorized committee, Having full powers to visit Utah and the adja cent Territories. 1 his looks reasonable and it is but just that Congress author ize, the appointment of such committee. , Commission c*i Montgornciy ol the Patent office, and his aide assistant, Mr. Vance, although but a short R rae I in office, haye made reputations b>i in- * dustry and an intelligent grasp of all the intricacies of the purely scientific and legal Bureau over which they pro side Unit mark them as peers among I the many who ha"e gone before them, In laet, their deal judgment, earnest, intelligent determination to do even i >"•'» ( tiality in the conduct of affairs m ets and receives the hemty commendation of all who have business to transact | ......................- ; lined at home for several days by ill- | ness, is about again as lively as ever, and moves with a step : s elastic as that of the youth in Ids prune, and is so smiling and dever that it is said it is even pleasant to have him .efuse you anappointmeiiLashedoesitsogiace fully that you feel that you arc being * complimented by his refusal. The appointment of General W. S. j Rosi-cratm us Registry of the Treasury I to succeed Blanche K. Bruce, is receiv ed with great favor here where he is so well known. This is an appointment j eminently proper to be made, as the old hero will discharge his duty faith fully, anil should be provided ior as he moves grace! ully down the declivity of life. Wasiimgton lias had an exodus of sweetness in the last few days, the belles of the West End lleeing towards Number 24. Annapolis and West Point to inspect tin 1 embryo defenders of the nation’s honor on the land and sea.
