A Card.
The friends of both parties beg of them
that if they can conscientiously subscribe to
the f oliowing suggestions and propositions,
that each of them append their names hereto,
not only for the purpose of restoring former
good feeling, aud as a guarantee of pleasant
relations in future, hut as staled evidence oi
regret ior what has passed, and to cancel
harsh thoughts and words indulged in by
each of them, both in private and public;
remembering that hasty judgments, fired by
hasty tempers, olleu lead to trouble, and
that civil law does not sympathize with acts
perpetrated under such circumstances, nor
docs the "Code of Honor” present modes
for the settlement of difficulties upon Chris
tian principles.
It appearing that the first published article
by Mr. iiart, in consequence oi a conversa
tion bad wi’h Mr. Greer during Court week,
is the foundation of this ill-feeling, is it not
possib'e to harmonize the conversation ? And
while it is true that the impression was cre
ated in Mr. Hart’s mind that a settlement
was agreed upon, is it not probable that Mr.
Greet’* reply was to the effect that so far as
his vote was concerned ihe matter should be
settled; for reason would dictate that Mr.
Greer could not rescind the action cl Coun
cil without the consent of the same ; and we
pray that Mr. Greer will acknowledge neglect
on iris part (or not informing Mr. Hart of the
non refusal of Council to accede to the prop
osition. Taking this view of the matter,
does it not appear that both parties could
have been, and were in error, without the
least intention'on the part of either to injure
the other, either in purse or character: It
certainly docs. Now, having removed, as
we think we have, tho cause for the onset of
Mr. Hart, we kindly, and in Christian chari
ty, ask him to withdraw his card, and fur
ther ask him to admit of an honesty of pur-
pose on the part of Mr. Greer.
This conceded, we ask Alt. Greer to pub
licly retract everything of a defamatory
character concerning Mr. Uart, and with
draw his card ; ns we think every epithet in
dulged in would grate with harshness on hid
Christian feelings in his cooler momenta.
If the above suggestions meet with your
approval, sign hereto your name, and the
Editor of the Dawsos Jocknal will gladly
publish the card making known tho fact that
this unfortunate difficulty lias been honora
bly settled, that both parties have expressed
regret at the course ol affairs, aud Christian
fellowship has been restored.

Special Notices,
A (diaitlur of Facts.
S;vi re is valuable in a newspaper, und it is
therefore proposed in this advertisement to
condom •i. variety of fact?, important to the
: iiiblie, info a sin ill compass. Those facts re
fer to Hostotter'a Stomach Bitters—what that
celebrated medicine is, and what, it wifi do.
In tho first place, then, the article is a stim
ulant, tonio and alterative, consisting ol a
combination of an'absolutoly pure spirituous
agent with the most vaiiiablo medicinal vege
table substances that Botanic research has
placed at the disposal of the chemist, and the
{ihjsiclan. Those ingredients are compound
ed with groat care, nud in such propoitions
as to produce a pieparation which invigor
ates without exciting the geucral system, and
tones, regulates nnd controls the stomach,
the bowels, the liver, and the minor secretive
orginr.
What this great restorative will do must
be gathered from what it has done. The
case of dyspepsia, or any other form of indi
gestion, iu which it has been persistently ad
ministered without effecting a radical cure, is
yet to be heard from, and the samo may be
said of biliiouß disorders, intermitted fever,
nervous affections, general debility, constipa
tion, sick headeache, mental disabilities to
whice the feeble aro so subject. It purifies
all the fluids of the body, including the blood,
end the gentle stimulus which it imparts to
the nervous system is not succeeded by tho
slightest reaction. ThKi is a Chapter of facts
which readers, for their own sakes, should
mark and remember.

rUE UNDERSIGNED, having resumed tho mnnufactnro of Urn abovo Gin,
propose to mako it what it was bofoto tho war—“ Tho favorito of the
South.’' Our work stands upon its merits, and wo think this a sufficient guar
antee. YVe have secured tho services of some of tho best mechanical talent
in the Northern shops, in addition to some of tho best workman from tho shop
of the lato-Samuel Griswold. Mr. Dims. Gardner, who served eight years
apprenticeship under E Garvor & Cos., at East Bridgewater, Mass., and who
was employed as Superintoudqnt of tlio Double Wells shop, from tno com
mencement of tho manufacture ot tho Moore Cotton Gin, until its suspension,
is again at his post, anti will give each Gin his personal inspection uef reit
loaves tho shop.
In calling the attention of planters to our Cotton Gins, wo de.siro that they
should notice tho improvements wo offer, which aro substantially ns follows ;
A PORTABLE ROLL BOX,
For obtaining any inclination of tho Gin Rib or Grate, is used ; tho object of
which is to lmi/'ovoin the quantity ginned, lessen tho quantity and. improve
the quality ol lint. Aiso, to gin damp or wot cotton ; to alter the picking or
separating tho lint from the soed-cfi.'lpr to take more lint off, or less lmt from
the seed, as circumstances require. Wo u«A both tho common Roll Box and
a Swinging Front. The latter is arranged to lot out fill tho seeds and hulls
in a moment, and is very easily managed.
THE GIN BRUSH
Wo moke, cannot be excelled by any hair brush used. Tho bristles arc nil
dtawn in by a cord, and tho timber is all selected from tho best lumbor, well
seasoned • and every brush is made perfectly lire and rat proof.
CYLINDER AND BRUSH BOXES,
Are both oscillating and plain. Can furnish either, as may Lc ordered. Wo
hue them with tho boat babbit metal.
GIN SAWS.
Wo make all tbe saws that we use from tho best English Cast Steel, and o
any size that may be desired. Wo employ, to superintend und manufacture
our saws, one of the host saw-makers in the Soutn, aud our machinery lor the
manufacture ol Gin Saws caDuot be excelled.
COTTON SEED CRUSHING MILL.
We are tbo only successful manufacturers of (his important and useful in
vertion— tho Colton GiD, with the Cotton Seed Crushing Mill attached. It
wi 1 hardly be necessary bore to allude to the immense saving and economical
use of crushed cotton seed a* a manure. We received a gold medal as a pro
mium, from tho Fair of the Cotton l’iauter’s Convention, held in Maeou, Oa.,
18G0 for the best Cotton Soed Cumber attached to the Gin Stand, 10 cru-b
the soed as fast as it escapes from the Roll. Wo refot to some of tho many
certificates that wo have on the subject.
TllliLla OF GINa.
We keep constantly on banl eoed cotton, and every Gin ia tried before it
leaves tho shop—old cr uetv ones.
HEF-ZLIIUNG OF OFF OUSTS.
We huvoa complete assortment of the very best Colton Gin Machinery in
Ibe country, and make repairing of old Gms a specialty. I‘iar.lors will do
well to send in thoir old Gins and have them made as good as new, at a much
