August* Hotel.
The season of the year has come when some
of our Citizens visit Augusta almost dally,
and it Is a great’convenience to have a nice
hotel to stop at when visiting that city, and
we once more call the attention of our readers
to the above named hotel. We know that
the Augusta Is the best hotel In the city, and
believe we are doing our readers a favor when
wo recommend it to them. The next time
you visit Augusta give Lewis A Doolittle a
trial.
• Fire.
On last Saturday night Mr. F. E. Tarver
had his barn, contaluingall his corn, fodder,
meat, a barrel of flour, and his plnntatlon
tools consumed by tire. Mr. Tarver is a poor
man, and the loss falls heavily upon him.
Except for the generosity, of bis neighbors,
who sent him corn, provisions, etc. Mr.
Tailor's family must have suffered. He has
several specimens of fret-saw work which he
had manufactured for exhibition at the fair.
He will now rattle these to aid him in his dis
tressed condition, and we hope he will llnd
many generous subscribers to Ills raffle.
The Fulr.
Our fnlropcns next Wednesday, and con
tinues four days. Every possible preparation
lias been made to accomodate both exhibitors
and visitors, and as the time approaches the
prospects brighten for an extensive and inter
esting exposition. Tho grounds and hulls
have been put in excellent order, and terms
of 4 cents per mllo for round trip tickets for
Visitors have been secured from the railroads.
With all these preparations, it seems to us
that to fall Is Impossible, yet we must urge It
upon our citizens to be sure to come them
selves, and bring soiftething for exhibition.
Major Barn**’ Speech.
Hon. George T. IJarnes, candidate for con-
? :ress from this district, lias about completed
ils series of spceches.luivlug spoken in nearly
every county 111 the district. Last Saturday
he made a rousing speech In tills city, and
we think did much good by waking up our
people to a sense of their duty to come out to
the polls on election day fnext Tuesday) and
vote. The audience was not as large us It
should have been, hut It was appreciative, and
was aroused to enthusiasm by the close reas
oning of the orator, and we hope to Nee Its
fruits by the attendance of every Democratic
voter at tho polls next Thursday.

Cut. In this county, this (Saturday) morning,
at 10 o'clock, of typhoid fever combined with
ryslpelas. Mr. Wimberly was ultout 38 years
er combined wit
was about 38 yoai
of age, and luuvos a wife and several children
and ninny relatives and friends to mourn his
loss. Mr. Wimberly was Just hi tho prime of
life, and hid fair to live muny years. But the
summons came, and he passed over the river,
lie was a true man In all the relations of life;
an affectionate husband, a kind father, a true
friend, and in his death the communltv has
lost a generous neighbor, and tho county a
good citizen. Deuth’s presence always tills
our hearts with sorrow, but when the fatal
shaft Is aimed at one la the very zenith of
manhood, our grief Is much more pOlngent.—
Our heartfelt sympathies are tendered to tho
bereaved ones.

Warren Leland,
whom everybody knows os the successful
manager of tho
Largest Hotel Enterprises
of America, lays that while a passenger from
New York ou board a ship going aromul Cap*
Horn, In tho early days of emigration to Cal
ifornia, he learned that ono ot the officers of
the vessel had ourod himself, during tho voy
age, of au obstinate disease by the use of
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.
Shico then Mr. Leland has recommended
Ayku’s Sarsaparilla in many similar
cases, and ho has never yet heard of its fail
ure to effect a radical cure. *
Sumo years ago one of Mr. Inland's farm
laborers bruised his leg. Owing to tho had
state of Ills blood, nn ugly scrofulous swelling
or lump npponred on the Injured limb. Hor
rible itching of tlm skin, with burning and
darting pains through tlio lump, imu|e li(«
almost intolerable. Tho leg became enor
mously enlarged, and running ulcers formed,
discharging great quantities of oxtremely
offensive matter. No treatment was of any
avail until the man, by Sir, Lklanh's direc
tion, was supplied with AVKH’s Sarsapa
rilla, whleli allayed tho palu ami bfButton,
healed tho sores, removed the swolllug, and
completely restored tho limb to use.
Mr. Leland has personally used
Ayers Sarsaparilla
for Rheumatism, with ontlre succoss; and,
after careful observation, declares that, la
hit belief, there is no medicine In the world
equal to It for tho cure of Liver Disorders,
Gout, tho effects of high living, Salt
ltheum, Sores, Eruptions, and all the
various forms of blond diseases.
We have Mr. Leland'b permission to Invite
all who may desire further uvtdcnee In regard
to the extraordinary curative powers ef
Ayer's Sarsaparilla to see him person
ally either at his mammoth Ooeuu Hotel,
Lung llranali.or at tho popular Leland Hotel,
Broadway, 27th and 28th Streets, New York.
Mr. Leland'b oxteuslve knowledge of tka
good dune by this unequalled uradloator of
blood poisons enables him to give Inquirers
much valuable luforiuatlon.
