CONSTITUTIONALIST.
AUGUSTA, GA.
WKDNBBDAY MORNING, FEB. 6,1867.
Matter on Every
beaping the whirlwind.
The masses ol the North, having, blindly fol
lowed the leadership of Abolition, are begin
„i„.r to suffer some of the consequences of thur
tolly and madness. They were seduced into
strife against their best customers on the cap
tious plea Ol crushing an oligarchy or aristo
cracy which they foolishly believed mimical to
their interests. The results of this folly are
being brought home to them daily and, ere long,
the startling discovery will be made that in
crushing a harmless, so-called, Southern aristo
cracy they have saddled themselves with a spu
rious Yankee article which coutains every ele
ment of oligarchy but respectability. These
masses fought for Union. The war is at end,
and the Union farther off thau ever. They
fought for free speech. But free speech is ouh
Congressional in its privilege and any attempt
to question the wisdom of Congress is meuaeed
by impeachment, as in the case of the President,
abolishment, in the case of the Supreme Court,
and a suspension of salary in the case of the
Minister Co Portugal. They fought for certain
111-deftned rights, but arc now plainly told by
Radical organs mid orators that the negro is not
oaly their equal but, in point of fact, so much
their superior tlwt the war coaid not have ter
minated rfucccssfully without his indispensable
services. They fought for choap commo
dities ; but thousands are out of work, thou
sands starving, thousands driven to crimi
nal eonrocs, and all burdened with taxes
and high prices which gnaw their lives away in
- perpetual and thankless 1011. ru™.
o f tho blessings entailed upon the people ol
the North by tbo late war, and an ordinary ob
server tnight deem them sufficiently oppress
ive But the reverse is true; lor New' Eng
land squeezes dry whatever is worth squeez
ing at alf, and, having plundered the South, as
much as possible, she turns ner rapacious maw,
like unto the daughter of the horse-leech, upon
her subjects east and west. As in the past, so
In the present, she essays her favorite scheme
of phvtcy through the modiurn of infamous
tariffs Thero is now under discussion in the
Senate of the United States a tariff bill even
more Ueinotw than any predecessor, and so
discriminatingly severe upon tho poor ant
tender upon the rich, so kind to the Yankee
manufacturer and so harsh to the western
larmier, that groans come forth from the afflict
ed section almost pitiable in their extremity
.ud desperation. This bill strikes the indigent
of all sections with blight, for its animus is
calculated to increase tho price of necessities
of life and smite that patient camel, the peo
ple to tho very dust of degradation. It is
uven too despotic for some Radical organs, and
the Evening Post, which has its disease some
what mitigated by the tolerant atmosphere o(
New York, thus protests :
Wo must again warn Congress against the
atrocious tariff bill now before the Senate. No
man who expects to continue in public life can
afford to vote for that bill, which discriminates
heavily against the mechanics and farmers of
the country in favor of the wealthy-
It does thiß in an ingenious way, which
tnaWs the tariff a muddle to any but experts.—
It is -t fact that in this tariff bill the cheaper
dualities pf cloth are to have a much higher
proportion «f duty laid upon them than the
hio-ii n deed ploths. Thus, woollen coatings,
the gold cost Os which is *1 03 per yard, are
to be raised 24 per cent,
and costly qualities, the gold price of which is
$3 40, are raised only 11 per cent.; and still
finer qualities, of the gold cost of $3 f? 0, at e
raised only 10 per cent. The coarser coatings
are to pay from SO to 130 per cent, in duties,
but the liner and more costly are only burden
ed with from 05 to 70 per equt.
The same Is true of eaepets.. The duty on
the high priced carpets is nut raised at all; that
on low priced carpets is raised ten cents per
square yard, about live percent. In the same
manner there is no increase on silk dress goods,
which arc benight by the wealthy; but ou small
articles of silk, such as ribbons, which are used
by the poor as well, there is an increase or fen
per cent. High priced linens are even put un
der a diminish duty—they are to pay live per
gent, less than now.
The commonest kinds of cutlery are to pay
from one hundred to two hundred per cent,
duty; that is to say, farmers and mechanics,
and working people generally, are to be made
to pay by this atrocious tariff twice or three
times as much us the articles can lie imported
for: for, of course, the home manufacturer
will at once put up his prices to the highest
limit at which he can just undersell the impoit
who has these duties po pity.
This atrocious swindle upon the farmers, me
cha.nics and workingmen of the United States
ought to bo called “ a bill to still further in
crease the prevailing high prices, and. to grind
the faces of American workingmen, .Inat
will be its effect, if it becomes a law ; it will
still farther r.Mse prices, add greatly to the cost
Os hqmc production, thereby entirely disable
us from trading with the rest of the. world, and
make the country pourer and poorer all the
time.
It Is useless to protest, no matter how elo
quently, if protestation end not in action. Will
the masses of flic North feed upon Mr. Sum
mer's treacle forever,while Mr. Sumner and his
party filch their very farthings away and make
their children paupers and jail birds V Will
the mighty West .ie forever, like a prone giant,
at the feet of the idol Snonor ? We believe
not; for men, however obtuse, have their dor
mant energies aroused when the wolf is not
only at the door but over the threshold. While
the masses grow poorer and poorer daily,
“ colossal fortunes,” to use the language of a
contemporary, “ are rising mountain high in
Eastern cities. They rise indeed, like moun
tain peaks above the low table land of crippled
means, or poverty and distress expanding far
and wide at their base.”
There is a Southern aspect to this question
of tariff, this question of Eastern monopoly
and Western serfdom, which the West would
do well to consider. It is this : Every Southern \
vote kept out of Congress is a triumph for the
East and a disaster for the West. If auy one
is puzzled to account for non-reconstruction,
he need go no farther than everlasting Yankee
graed, and, if a text is wanting, ho can find it in
tho tariff now progressing in the Senate. The
West specially and the poor universally have
been sustltuted for the Southern goose whose
eggs are no more golden. The goose turned
upon the robber and is crippled. Tho Western
gander may profit by the example—in a variety
of ways.
One or the Impeachers.—ls there is auy
one mau in the North more cordially detested
than cvcu Beast Buti.er, that painful emi
nence of loathsomeness must be accorded to
Chief Detective L. C. Baker. He did all the
dirty work of the Lincoln regime, and though
ihe Radicals rewarded him by a brevet brig
adier generalship, they despise the man and his
low calling ns ouly such anarchs know how to
despise. This individual lias risen to the sur
face, lately, or rather been dragged there mor
ally in tho same condition ns was tho physical
part of Thomas Leicester, horrent from the
depth of the slimy mere.
The Judiciary Committee have ftshedhim up,
it is alleged, to testify against the President. It
is stated that Baker like Forney, owes the
President a grudge and Is anxious to settle it.
It seems that the Chief Detective placed several
of hie tools and underlings around the sacred
person of Mr. Johnson, so thnt the White
House was, for the first time in its history, de
filed with the presence ol spies and informers
in Government employ. Mr. Johnson detect
ed this iniamy, emptied the vials of his just
wrath upon him and metaphorically—kick
ed him out ol doors. Baker swallowed the
leek, but swore vengeance. The garlic is still
in his mouth and the Judiciary Committee erect
their nostrils to iuale the garlic. Is not this a
glorious sample of “ great moral ideas” in the
*' best government the world ever saw?”
MOBE “•Treason.”— We learn that a few
days since Captain De la Mesa ordered Messrs.
Moreticld A Coleman to take down their sign.
They keep the Star Saloon, and had for a Bign
the representation of a lone star on red ground.
We think the officer’s olfactories are peculiar,
lor he seems to “ smell treason” not only ou
the “ tainted breeze,” but even on that laden
with the pure incense of patriotism. Mr.
Buckley was also ordered to take down his
sign, “Confederate Saloon." The fact that
these orders were promptly obeyed, shows
that our citizens tire inteusely loyal.

THE STEAM PLOUGH AGAIN.
Wo have received words of cheer from several
planters in reference to the care taken to keep
our people posted on agricultural improve
ments. A few days since, we gave copious ex
tracts from the New Orleans Bee concerning
the Steam Pough. In editorial remarks, accom
panying the extracts of our able Louisiana con
temporary, wc stated that portions of Georgia
and South Carolina were sufficiently level to in
sure a successful application of this wonderful
implement. The inference was that the plough
is not adapted for hilly countries. Upon fur
ther and accurate investigation, wc discovered
this ta be a wrong impression, for the "plow is
guaranteed to perform its functions on heavy
grades as well as ou prairio land. Tho New
Orleans Crescent has the subjoined notice which
may prove additionally interesting to those who
read the vetsion of the Bee. The Crescent
says:
CJuite a number of the leading planters and
merchants of our State were present yesterday
at the trial of the steam plough, imported by
Messrs. Lougstreet, Owen A Co. The trial
took place at the. Fair Grouuds of the Meehan
ics* and Agrh»ulMir*l Association, and the up pa
ratus, under the direction of Mr. Max Eylb,
late engineer-in-chief to the Pacha of Egypt,
evinced to the fullest satisfaction of all present
its wonderful capacity as a marvellously com
oleic and effective agricultural implement,
iouie of our most extensive planters who were
present at the triad were surprised w ith the
swiftness aud accuracy with which it yerfoi tu
ed its work, albeit the ground was unfavorably
idapted to a true and lair exhibit of its powers.
The plough moves betweeu two engine with
such ease aud celerity, guided by one man, that
the work of forty ordinary ploughs with all the
necessary baud aecompauimeuts can he per
formed in twenty-tour hours, aud every mo
ment of favorable weather may be improved
with such promptitude aud certainty that no
time is lost iu preparing the soil for whatever
crop may be designed. The advantage' ut this
wonderltil improvement need only to be seen
10 satisfy ail who are interested lu agriculture
of its adaptability to our soil, and tho economy
and practicability oT its working on a large or
small scale. It is such enterprise as should
interest every planter and merchant in the
State, end promises yet to revolutionize the
system of Houtbern agriculture.
We can ill afford to let planters of Egypt,
WflO huve tested this machine, turp. isis ua in
enterprise in the culture of our great staples,
and with the advantages of tho steam plough
we may vie with the world in wealth and pro
ductiveness.
THE HERALD AND IMPEACHMENT.
Old Mr. Bennett, of the ffarq.ld, is posi
tively mangy on the subject of impeachment.
He says : “ The Impeachment and removal of
Andrew Johnson, or a surrender of the legis
lative powers of the Government Into his hands
by his continuance lu ofllce is tbe alternative
presented to Coqgross. * * Andrew John
son’s recantation, resignation or removal lias
become not only a necessity to the country,
hut the only salvation to tho party in power.”
This oracular utterance has given many peo
plo the stomach ache, for they declare that,
though not entiled to respect, the Herald is
valuable as a weather-jeo.ck and exponent of
public opinion. We very much fear that these
pains have some genuine source of misery, but
it is just as well to pick up a palliative, if con
venient. We might consider, for instance, that
the Herald has frequently been borne on the
Hood tide of public opinion oue day, and
beached by the ebb-tide, tbe following day.
Possibly, it may suffer shipwreck in this matter.
At all evenis, Mr. Johnson’s head need not be
surrendered because Bennett said, on yester
day, that such surrender was imperative. Never
bet with the devil ; it is a gift enterprise, nil on
oue side.
fCOMMUNIOATED.J
Editor of Constitutionalist:
1 have noticed your article ol Saturday, head
ed “Touch it Not,” and fully agree and cor
dially endorse tho spirit of your remarks. It
would be degradation for the South to accept
such charity. When the Very words ol condo
lence are wrongs, and of sympathies Insult.
Very low must bo their estimate ol Southern
standards If they expect even the “homeless,
the destitute aud the starving,” made so by
their hands, to accept aid, accompanied by lying
abuse and vituperative epithet. Rather the
whole South should become a howling waste,
covered with the bleached bones of a starved
population, than to receive succor from a race
who cover with filthy hypocrisy the offerings
on the altar of outraged charities, it is true,
wc arc all poor; many without shelter to their
heads—without garments to keep out the win
tery clement—thousands of all ages, sinking
with diseases created by exposure—dying, des
titute and desolate ! But who has caused all
tills ? and to whom do we owe it '! and worse
than tho ruin which wc owe to them is the
charity they offer In the spirit which they offer
it.
It was not in this spirit that, cm a hundred
occasions In tbe past, me south offered her
thousands to relieve tho sufferings of the North,
wlieu a more merciful enemy had devastated
their cities and rendered thousands homeless.
We did not taunt them with what they had
done in times past, while offering our assis
tance ; nor charge them with crime, wliils.t
giving them charity. We did not hypocritically
resolve that Providence had thus visited them
as a punishment for sins; nor shift our offences
on them as an equivalent for tho gold we sent
them. No! it was not thus the South acted —
and shall we accept a charity from men or coin
; mur.ities who accompany their gilts with shuj
■ dorous falsehoods, and their offerings with
abuse.
i But worse than the hypocritical cant of
! Beecher is the fact that wc are called upon to
| accept these ciiarites through the hands of such
i a heart as B. F. Butler, whoso name is in the
I list of the “ relief committee." The Southern
j people must be sunk very low in the es’tima-
I tlon of their Northern brethern, when they
! placed that name before them as one of their
! benefactors—the receiver of a donation from
| such hands should be Jiffe Mitbridntcs of
Pontns proof against poison.
It may be asked what are we to do to aid
those who need, if wc reject what is thus offer
ed, Mr. Editor, we are not without power, let
all do what they pan, and call upon the State
to do the balance —there are thousands still
amongst us who can give something however
small. Let ns form soc.etics throughout the
State. Let pride and fashion give up some of
their ornaments —for the time. Let appetite
deprive itself of some of its luxuries; let all join
in the work who can give—and by some per
sonal sacrifice, make a fund sufficiently large to
prevent the necessity of accepting a charity j
from such a polluted source. 1
If our ladies willunove in the matter with j
their accustomed energy—where is the man, ■
who will dare refuse to aid in such a purpose.

“A Touching Scene.”—A Mr. Watkins,
who recently earne to Tallahassee from Jeffer
son county, in this State (and from South Car
olina there), died of pneumonia, on Monday,
and was buried on Tuesday, It is said that his
destitution was so great that it extorted the
following passionate exclamation from one of
three interesting daughters. Just before the
eofiiu-lid was fastened on—the lid that would
soon curtain forever from earthly view the be
loved face of a fond and worthy father —one of
the daughters with a tender emphasis of affec
tion that would have moved a heart of stone,
exclaimed : “ My father 1 you are oone now,
and so cold. Didn’t we try to keep you warm,
lather, when you were here ?”
Oil! is there destitution like this so near our
doors ? Verily, “the poor ye have always with
3'ou.” But we Jearu that, though poor, Mr.
Watkins was a very worthy man, »ud a church
member. The surviving members of llie church
lo which be belonged will surely look after the
uow, more than ever, dependent ones whom
sudden death has thus bequeathed to them.

Wool Statistics.— A statement made to the
Senate Committee on Agriculture, by J. R.
Dodge, statistician of the Agricultural Depart
ment, declares the annual consumption of uu
seoured wool in the United States to be little
more than one-third of the estimate made in
the recent special reveuuo report. It makes
the total wool supply of the four years of war,
ending June 30,1805, about 800,000,009 lbs., of
which 300,000,000 lbs. were produced In this
country, 379,000,000 lbs. imported, and an
equivalent of 220,000,000 lbs. introduced as
manufactured wooleus. It makes the actual
consumption of the loyal States during the
war 7 lbs. per capita instead of 4j£ lbs. prior to
tbe war, showing au increase of 55 per cent,
iroiu the waste of war and scarcity of cotton.

An Impartial Government,— Cupt. Keogh,
a young officer on the plaius, says, in the camp
of the Cheyenne Indians lie has seen all the
finest arms, of the latest improvements, and
doesn’t understand what the quarrel between
the Department of tho Interior and the War
Department is, that causes the first to supply
arms to the Indians to attack the United States
soldiers armed by the la6t. Whether this arises
from a lively disposition on the part of the
Government to keep soldiers and Indians em
ployed on equal terms, or from some deadly
enmity existing between the two departments
of the Government, is not explained.

THE CLOTHING TRADE.
I
GARRETT, YOUNG, SCOTT & CO.’S, 33 WARREN
AND 29 MURRAY STREETS, NEW YORK.
The advertisement of the above named house
appeal's in our columns of to-dny. Consider
ing the groat extent of its business, the excel
lent quality of . its clothiug and the extreme
moderation of charges, we have taken the un
grftntcd liberty ol calling attention to the con
cern. The firm of Messrs. Garurtt, Young,
Scott & Co. is comprised of a number of gen
tleihen, all practically engaged iu the clothing
trade for many years. As at present, constitu
ted, the house comprises C. VV. Garrett, of
North Carolina, Ellen Young and Speutor
Scott, of New York, A. J. Shaffer and A. L
Scott, of Petersburg, Va., and F. M. Garrett, of
North Carolina, The senior partner of tbe
ffrui, Mr. C. VV. Garrett, was formerly in'busi
ness in New York in the firm of C. W. Garrett
A Co. Iu the year 1865 ho became associated
w ith Messrs. Archibald Young & Co., aud in
1866 A. Young, Garrett A Co. associated with
.he long established aud well known house of
Spencer, Scott A Co., of Newark, N. J. Messrs.
Shaffer aud A. L. Scott are from Petersburg,
Va , where they did a large clothing business
tor many years- By the present copartnership
he reader will observe a consolidation of two
uge manufacturing establishments has been
fleeted, aud lreah business blood introduced
j row Virginia. Under such ch on instances our
, coder* can easily imagine that Messrs, Garrett,
Young, Scott A l‘o. can offer facilities and in
| lu,veme»ts to the clothing trade which uo
i Jthcr house iu the counter affix ,|V.
the estabiishmeut or Messrs Garrett, Young,
! 'volt A Co., is situated rut Warren and Murray
j streets* having a frontage ot 30 tcet, running
dong the east Mde ot Church street to the
| tepth. of SOO (Wt- t’heie are lour floors, the
I out area of r, hsch u ottltl nearly cover one acre
>t ground The tovalitv is in tho centre-of the
j business part ot the city, in dose proximity to
i .he palatial di> goods warcrooms of A. T.
j Stewart A Co., W lv Chitlin, Ac.
i The tirst aud second floors are used as sales
tnd sample rooms, wherein are displayed an
endless variety of all descriptions of clothing ;
including a most extensive assortment of
youths, boys, aud childrens wearing apparel.
The arrangements in these salesrooms are very
complete, indeed. The goods are all properly
classified, not merely as to quaility, finish and
size, but aro also subdivided into departments
lor coats, vests and pants. Business clothing
has a special department, and just now, goods
specially adapted forTba latter jiart of spring
and summer, are conspicuously displayed by
themselves.
We were particularly struck on visiting the
inleaman with the extensive aud excellent llght
ing arrangements of the premises, having large
and judiciously systematized windows on three
aides of tho building, viz: Warren, Murray aud
Church streets. So perfect are the modes
adopted for securing a steady, full and certain
tight that persons selecting goods can at all
times, no matter how gloomy may be the
weather, at once judge with accuracy, not
merely the texture of the cloth, and the style of
workmanship, but correctly determine the
strength and durability of the colors. We have
no hesitation in affirming that we have never
come across a clothing establishment in any
part of the country so effectually provided with
light adapted to the accurate judgment of the
quality of cloth aud clothing, and sure we are
that it must be no small assistance to clothiers
in the proper selection of they goods.
The third floor of the building is set apart to
i variety of purposes connected with the manu
facture of clothing, namely, the cutting depart
ment, the modelling or pattern room, and the
cloth room, where all cloths aud trimmiugs in
tended to be used in the manufacture of raiment
undergo a rigid examination by a highly com
petent and experienced inspector who reports
the slightest cjiyergency of quantity or quality
from that set forth in the invoices, anti has the
defect or deficiency promptly rectified. By tiiis
means cloth of a shrinking or uusound quality
never finds its way to the cutting room. In the
cloth room there are always immense piles of
the best looms in England, Scotland, France,
Germany and Austria, whilst home manufac
tured, such as cassimeres, black and colored
cloths arc carefully selected and constantly kept
in stock.
The fourth floor is used lor the manufacture
of clothing in all its branches. Here will be
found tbe most improved appliances of tbe
inventive genius of the age. Scores of young
women are here enabled to obtain an honest
livelihood. The superintendent is fully versed
in all the fashions of the day, and is particu
larly careful that no garment leaves his depart
ment that will ijof, reflect credit on the estab
lishment.
CONCLUDING REMARKS.
From the foregoing observations our readers
will have gathered the following facts : that
Messrs. Garrett, Young; Scott A Co. stand iu
the foremost rank of American Clothing Manu
factories that, by a long and extensive expe
rience in the business, their stocks of manu
factured apparel arc everything which cau be
desired, made of the best materials, of superior
workmanship, the height of fashion, moderate
in price, comfortable and durable in quality
and color; that thero is abnudauce of capita] at
command, enabling the- house to lay in both
cloths and trimmings op tho most favorable
terms, aud that all who frequent their estab
lishment will be sure of obtaining any and
everything they may require in the shape of
clothing, at the lowest current rates of the day.
Gene rat- Grant on the Floor of tue
Houbb/—Gen. Giant tjrnß to-day «>n tbo floor ui
(he House in conversation with Mr. Wilson, of
lowa, chiarman of the Judiciary Committee. —
In conversation with some of the Radical mem
bers he stated, with reference to the subject of
his going to the Paris Exhibition, that “ he
would not be found ten hours away from this
city for a year to come.” He spoke of the
President’s late trip as a mistake, and said, in
substance, that no man, however distinguished
or veuetrated, could depart from the right
track and parry the people with him. In reply
to one of the members that even he {General
Grant) would he dropped quicker than a hot
potato by the people if ho should deviate from
the right track, he said, “ I do not doubt it.” -
Members speak of his conversation as une
quivocally in favor of the Congressional policy.
He favored the continuation of Gen. Dix, as be
was less objectionable than the next nominee
would by, who would be a military man, and
that the Senate would be forced into the posi
tion of appearing unfriendly to soldiers’ inter
ests. He said that Gen. Dix was not wholly
averse to Gongress. General Grant occupied
tlie seat of Mr. Boutwell, of Massachusetts,and
for some time was engaged in conversation
with Mr. Hooper, of the same State. The re
port that a bill was to be introduced to-day
providing that he should be appointed Acting
President iu case of the impeachment and re
moval of the President, and the rivival of Mr.
Kelso’s resolution declaring that the impeach
ment and removal of the President were neces
sary, are supposed to bo amoug the reasons
why he was present. These may also account
for the fact that not a single Democratic mem
ber was seen to pay his respects to him.

A Model Minister. —About two miles from
I New Albany lives an old-fashioned minister of
tUeGospel, who has been laboring in the cause of
Christ for upwards of thirty years, during which
period he has generally preached on the Lord’s
i day, and the remainder of the week engaged in
i manual labor. ll ('{has neither asked nor receiv
ed anything lor his service as a minister, al
ways, when offered pay, contending that he can
afford to preach the Gospel gratuitously, as
well as his congregation can afford to sit and
listen to his preaching. He lives in a small log
house, containing but one room, in which there
is no floor. His diet is course, but substantial
and healthy. Ho is in the best of health, and,
although poor, ae far as this world’s goods are
concerned, yet in his house are contentment
and happiness that many a rich man sighs for,
and many a fashionablo minister is uot blessed
with.
During the late heavy fall of show this old
soldier of the cross could be seen wending his
way on foot from the city to his rude home,
with a bushel otcorn meal on his shoulder, and
liis basket of potatoes on his arm. He is past
sixty years of age, aud has never lost a tooth,
every one-being still sound. His gait is elastic
and his stature .erect . Having a vigorous consti
tutiou he promises to live many years yet. He
Is a perfect specimen of preserved manhood.
Ilis history calls us back to the apostolic age,
when men were called to the ministry from the
industrial classes, and preached without pay or
reward, save that reward which awaited them
in heaven.
What a contrast between this old preacher
and many fashionable ministers of the present
day, who are called to break the bread of life
to the fashionablo worshippers at the fashion
altars of our fashionable churches, at a fashion
able salary of from 81,500 to 810,000 a year, and
a princely mansion furnished free besides; who
dress gorgeously, fare sumptuously, and are
dying daily with gout and dyspepsia.

TO THE FI'BILC.
The Pain Killer has won for Itself a reputation un
surpassed in the history of medlca! preparation?. It is as
well known in tho trading posts of led a and China as in
New York and B stou; and its continually iucreasiug de
mand, where it has been longed in us >, is one of its
strongest recommendations and test advertisements. In
18 b tills lvn, <iy 0r,,! canje into generaj upe, since w hich
> it has grown r«pidly into public favor, till, iu thousands
of families, it li j s come to be considered an article of
such neces.ity that a supply is never want ng to resort to
in <as ,of acrilintor su'den illn ss. TVe often hear it
said of it, “ We would as soon think oj being without
Hour in the home at without Pain Killer,” and that
with an earnestness of tone that speaks more than etcu
this language. It is much in its f,v r that it is a purely
1 vegetable prep intion ; and while it is prompt and effi
cient in its action, it is always tyfe and rcligb c. To this
quality is indebted for the name—Pain Killer—of
v.lii li it has proved its If so worthy ; a name easily un
derstood, and not easily forgotten.
It has been eir,inent!y successful in Cho(era, curing
hundreds of the severest cases ; and never, to our kuowl
c ige, haviug faih d in a single kissance, wheu it was used
according to directions, in the earlier stages of the dis
ease. In curing Fever and Ague, anil o’her diseases in
cident to cur Wisternand Southern climate, no medi
cine nas been more successful. Per a cioiu njis a
s eciflc, and Rheumatic and Neuralgic affections often
givowaytp it when uli remedies have failed. It is emi
nently a Family Medicine, and kept ready for imme
diate resort in cases of accident or sudde i attach of uis
ease, it lias saved many hours of suffering, and many a
i dollar in time and doctors’ bills.
It has hern tested in every variety of climate, and by
almost every nation known to Americans. It is tho al
most constant companion of the missionary and the trav
-1 eler, and it has won to itself firm friends wherever it has
become known,
\fe have received unsolicited many testimonials, show
ing its remarkable success in curing sndden Colds,
Coughs, Sore Throat, Diptheria, Fever and Ague, Ilead-
RcUe, Bitlious Fever Pains In the Side, Back and Loins, ns
well as in the Joints and Li nbs; Neuralgic and Rheu
matic Pains in a ly put of the Sys em, Tooth che and
Pains in tho Head and Face.
As i Blood Purifier and Tonic for the Stomach, it sel
dom fails to cure Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Diver Com-.
plaint, Acid Stomach, Heartburn. Kidney Corap’ ain s,
Sick Headache, Piles, Asthma or Phthisic, Ringworms,
Bolls, Felous, Whitlows, Old Sores, Swelled Joints, and
General Debility of the System.
It is a so a prompt and sure remedy for Cramp nnd
Pain in the St mach, Painters’ Colic. Diarrhoea, Dysen
tery, Summer Complaint, Cholera Morbus, Cholera In
fantum, Scald?, Bun'?, Sprains. Bruises, Frost Bites,
Chilblains, as well as the Stings of Insects, Scorpions,
pions, Centipedes, and the Bites of Poisonous Insects,
and Venomous Reptiles.
To the name of our medicine, “Pain Killer,” which
is our trade mark, we have the exclusive right, which we
have never failed to s istaiu in law in any of the numtr
ous aptions brought against parties putting .up or selling
articles under that naiise. or on * ro similar as to mislead

of putting up.
We continue to prepare the Pain Killer from the
best and purest materials, and with a care that ensures

many years past placed it far in advance of all com

In this Department our Stock la so largo and va

case witli PERFECT SATISFACTION to the buy
er, and in la-auty of design, pi-rfe: t adaptation to all
the requirements of a PERFECT and COMPLETE
COOK STuVE, It stands to-day without a rival, as an
inspeelion will convince the most careful examiner.
Among our other Cook Stoves wu omtn ernto the
HARVEST QUEEN, MARION, QUEIENOF THE

FIRST CI.AsS STOVES, well known throughout
Georgia and South Carolina. We have, also, u large
variety of medium and aecond-olass goods in this

Our Stock in this Departmentis so large and va
ried, so well known during our long existence here,
consisting of PLAIN, PLANISHED aud JAPAN
NED TIN WARE, WOOD, WILLOW, and house
furniahing WOOD WARE, Sec., Ac., that we deem
special enumeration entirely unnecessary. No pains
will bespared to sustain the reputation in this eon
nectionthat has for sixteen years past been so fully
accorded us.
MANUFACTURING.
Strict attention will, as heretofore, be given in our
EXTENSIVE WORKSHOPS to everything pertain- '
ing to this Department of our trade. In this 1 .ranch '
of our business we promiso NOTHING NEW. That
same punctuality and care tor detail that has been a
well known characteristic of this House in times past
will be rigidly observed and continued. 1
TIN ROOFING.
Owing to the general stagnation In mercantile af
fairs just now, we shall MORE THAN EVER give ,
our closest and most ENERGETIC ATTENTION ‘
to all kinds of heavy OUT-DOOR WORK in our
line. Our facilities atul way of doing things in this
connection are pretty well known. We GUARAN
TEE, for any reasonable time, ALL WORK DONE
BY US, and we are pleased to find, as our rapidly in
creasing patronage In this direction abundantly at
tests, that the public are beginning to appreciate this
guarantee, and to find that It means JUST WHAT
IT CARRIES ON, ITS FACE WITHOUT DIS
COUNT.
