Ckcii., February 8.—The surface of thu cartli in again getting dry in them parts—no also are the beer- bibbers, News Is about as scarce as money, and the latter—oh, myl Dr. 3. II. Daniels, who it will bn remembered was called here Inst spring to treat an ulcer on Mr. .John D. Futoli’s cheek, returned here Inst Friday from Ii(h home in Dunn, N. C., on a pleasure trip. On yesterday lie was arraigned be fore Squire I.like on a warrant charg ing him with being a common cheat. The doctor showed up a fine reputft- tion in the Tarheel state, and that he Jmd beaten skin cancer tlm best two out of three hero, and was dis charged. Of course, i lake no sides in the matter: am opposed on principle to traveling specialists, evangelists, d ,/muk liiiiiio, hut wlien people do em ploy them, they take their own risks the same as with any other class of inudieal practitioners, No one lias no far prosecuted the S. H. H., I’. 1'. 1’., or it. II, II. C'o’.s, Hood, Salter, or any of the charlatan race, and yet none of them in this part of tho continent have succeeded in curing more cases than Dr, Daniel. My sympathy ever go out to tho vic tims of those wonderful physiciuns. The passion, if f tnay call it by so mild a name, for patent and proprie tary remedies is worse, far worse, I linn the liquor traffic, as even our lovely women are fast becoming phy sical wrecks by their use, You never see a preacher's or a woman’s name used to a certificate of the virtues of any particular brand of whisky and its twin-sisters, and yot this class of names lire disgustingly at the front recommending of which they are ig nnraut, ami for diseasen which shouhi never lie mentioned in a newspaper Away with the whole eonoorn—let common sense mlo awhile.

Elliott’s largo two-story store building, also his warehouse with their entire contents, is one of tho severest calamities Sparks hua ever known.
