INCENDIARISM.
It will be.-seen that his Excellency,
Gov. H. I). McDaniel, has issued a
proclamation through the columns of
the Democrat in which he offers $250
reward for the capture of the incendia¬
ry that burned Mr. V. R. Porter’s gin
house on the 22nd day of last month.
Mr. Borter is one of our worthy farm¬
ers and it is a shame to have property
destroyed in this manner bv one so
malicious as this party must have
been. We are told that this was a
horse-power gin and it had been sever¬
al days since any ginning had been
done there, which gives strong evi¬
dence that the torch was apolied.
Last year, about this time, Mr. Heard,
just on the line of this and Greene
county lost his barn and several hors¬
es. In the last few months there has
been several other fires in the settle¬
ment of Flutter District, and it now
seems that ttie law dip nut get the last
incendiary when they sent Fed. Heard
to the chain-gang for 15 years for
burning Mr. Heard’s house. There
must be another branch to this fiend¬
ish band and now it behooves every
good citizen in tins county to watch
closely and do all in tl.eir skill to find
aud convict one oi two more of the
torch-carriers. That is the only rem¬
edy to cure this disease, and God speed
the day when they shall be brought to
the bar of justice and given the full
extent of the law-.
A GOOD ONE.
We commenced in the early part of
the year to furnish our readers with
that our effort has been crowned with
success. Our readers have been de
lighted with the selections used in the
Democrat and we will be found on
the line of improving this department
with every new story. “Olivia,” r our
prese nt o n e w ill / end in a
while, and though' it has been
quite’a long one it has been much ap
preciated. It is almost daily that we
receive compliments praising it. All
who . ave failed to read It have missed
a good thing.
Now, we wish to call vour attention
to our new story which will commence
in our issue of Nov. 20th, 1880. and
will he wholly worth the entire sub¬
scription of one year to the paper.
The title, “Marion Delorme ; or the
Worth of Wit.” insures a good story
by the hands of one of the best au¬
thors in the country. It is very hand¬
somely written and you will lose one
of the best articles of the age if you
fril to r.G.d it. We wish to make this
proposition to our readers. If those
who are behind with their subscrip¬
tion a few months will come forward
ai d settle up to the first of December
next,and pay us one dollar in advance,
will receipt and send you the IL.sio
crat weekly for twelve months. We
make this offer only through the re¬
mainder of tnis month and to the 15th
of December 188G. It is an unparral
lelled offer mid we only do this as we
know the times are bard and that cash
is scarce. Don’t think we are jesting
about , this for we moan wlnit we say. j
To ail who have already paid up to or !
about ...... that time we will make ... spec . al . . ,
arrangements on application. |

Tried in the Crucible. ft
About twenty years ago I discovered a little sore on my cheek, and the doctors pro¬
nounced it cancer. I have tried a number of physicians, out without receiving any perma¬
nent benefit. Among the number were one or two specialists. The medicine tney applied
was like fire to the sore, causing intense pain. I saw a statement in the papers telling what
S. S. S. had done for others similarly afflicted. 1 procured some at oncer Before f had used
the second bottle the neighbors could notice that my cancer was healing up. My general
health had been nad for two or three years—I hau a hacking cougn ana spit tdood contin*
ually. I had a severe pam m my breast. After taking six bottles of S. S. S. my cough left
me and 1 grew stouter than I had been for several years. My cancer lias healed over all but
a little spot about the size of a half dime, and it is rapidly disappearing. I would advise
every ouc with cancer to give S. S. S. a fair trial.
