Bob Alston says be has corn on his DeKalb farm that will yield seventy bushels to the acre, and yet the Colonel died hard as a newspaper mao. Paris green has been tried upon the too uuanimous grasshopper, in Atlanta, and is said to be a most disgusting and fatal dose to the agile varmint. During a storm, a few days ago, light ning struck in a cotton patch on Mr. R. H. Baugh’s farm, in Greene county, and killed about a half acre of cottoD. Allen Dennis, colored, an escaped con vict, was arrested iu Coweta county on Monday last and lodged in jail. Fifty dollars reward was offered for him.

There are said to be eighteen for the Legislature, and as many iu proportion for all the county offices. William Downs, who resides twelve miles from Handersville, was severely stabbed in the back a few days since, by Joshua Brown, of the same neighbor hood. Mr. Downs, we are glad to learn, is recovering, and is now thought to be out of dauger. A young man named Waldon, living near McDonough, while out shooting, aimed his gnu in ruugei of a cornfield, und in working the hammer it was dis charged, the load entering the head of a white laborer Darned Mitchell, wound iug him mortally. A letter from Safi Juan Nevada coun ty, California, to Mr. John Campbell, in forms liim of the death of his brother on the 10th inst. Joseph Campbell went from Dablonega to California in 1852, and iu the early days of mining was suc- cessful, but not so lately. On last Saturday night the members of tho Young Men’s Christian Associa tion of Warrenton, and a number of their friends, met at the Baptist Church to celebrate their first anniversary of the organization of the Association, and to reorganize it for the ensuing year. Col. B. T. Brown, Principal Keeper of i the Penitentiary, has just returned from a visit of inspection to the plantation of Col. T. J. Smith, in Washington county. He reports that Tunis G. Campbell wears the stripes of the convicts, except when actually engaged in preaching, lie is a trusty, and is doing good service for Col. Smith. On last Saturday night, shortly after Mrs. L. fl. Routzhao, of Waynesboro, bud retired for the night., she was star tled by the presence of a negro at one of the windows of her room, in the act of pushing aside the blinds anil reaching for some clothing hanging near the win dow. Mrs. R. gave an alarm, which frightened the negro away. The crop prospect of Hart county, at this time, ia somewhat unfavorable—tho lowlands having been seriously affected by the freshets. The uplands are now iujued by drouth. Leading farmers in form us that cotton is very small for the time of the year Some are getting 1 about through with their crops, and ' trade i#gradully on the increase. Atlauta Commonwealth : “ Yester day, while Mr. R R. Saye, of this city, was besriug to the cemetery the dead body of hia little boy, ho received a 'telegram from lua daughter, Mrs. Man ning, staling that her little girl had died on the train at Dalton, and she was then on her way home with it.

Perry, late of Burke, but now of the Custom Honre in Savannah, has been iu Burke county for the last few days holding Radies! meetings among the negroes aud making speeches to them. He was in Waynesboro on Sat urday, and held a meeting. All this time be is drawing his salary as a faith ful officer of the revenue service. This will be changed next Fall, when Tilden is elected; then Government employees will do the work they are employed to do, and will not be allowed the privilege of running over the country making s[leeches to negroes, wiieu they should be at work for the Government. Forest News: In addition to the ex tremely hot weather of some time past, serious fears began to be entertained as to a drouth—the earth baviug become hard and dry, aud vegeta'iou consider ably parched. On Sunday afternoon list, however, we were visited with a good little shower; on Monday a still better one, and the indications have been favorable to ‘'general seasons” in all the regions round about. Crops of all kinds, we are informed, are in splen- did condition, aud with continued ‘ sea sons” the yield, in every department will be bouutiful indeed. People should now turn their attention to a large turnip crop. Scarcely anything pays jitter—for man or beast—aud an “early ; stand” should be the motto of every ! oue—no matter how small the “patch.” Deaths in Georgia: Mr. Robert Yer ner died at his residence in Franklin countv, on Saturday, 15th inst., at a er v advanced age. Mrs. Johnathan Morgan, Sr., of Franklin county, died verv suddenly at her residence, on Friday last, 21st inst Mrs. Charles Gordon, aged ei’hty-tbree years, died Saturday ntgbt of inflammatory rheumatism, with which she has been afflicted for nearly three year* She was the (rife *of a celebrated lawyer, Hon. Dbarles G. Gordon, both of whom ;ived many years in Katontoo, Georgia. Mrs. Wm. H. Thurmond, formerly of Madison, Ga., bat for some time a re si lent of Athens, died last Sunday night. Mrs. Thurmond, a sister of Mrs. S. C. Reese and mother of Mrs. J. T. Comer, jf Athens, has been in bad health for iome years, and her death, though not unexpected, was none the less a severe blow to her fami'y and friends. Mr. Andrew Hill, an old and respect ed citizen of Athens, died last Thursday night, after a short illness. Mr. Hill was a Scotchman, having baen born in the village of Midcaulder, near Edin burgh, November 13, 1813. He came to Athens with the Messrs. Cook from New Orleans, who established the gun armory in this place in 1862. Hia only surviving relatives in this country are his daughter, Mrs. Jam t Haudrup, of Augusta, Ga., ipd her daughter. SOUTH CAROLINA. PALMETTO NKWH LEAVES. The editor of the Sumter Watchman was robbed of £lO in cash at the Charles ton Centennial. Columbia is blessed with a larger number of paper thieves than any city of its size in the Union. Greenville has already subscribed over $5,000 towards building her con templated street railway. Every good farmer in Abbeville coun ty is making arrangements to sow oats as soon as the crops are “laid by." Major Morris and Lieutenants Bom ford, Bambardt and Turner have gone from Columbia to Yorkville on court martial duty. . The Governor, it is thought, will not pardon or commute Jerry Coleman’s sentence. His soul is immortal. He needs spiritual aid. Miss Lizzie Harris, daughter of Cap tain W. 8. Harris, of Abbeville, took sick on Friday last, and died on the Monday following. Generals Kershaw and McGowan both decline to allow their names to be used in connection with the Democratic nom ination for Governor. On the 21st instant, a young man liv ing on the plantation of J. M. Smith, in Laurens county, by the name of Rod gers, was killed by lightning. The ladies of Abbeville propose soon to present a banner to the Abbeville Ri fle Club. The fund is raised and the flag will soon be lorthcoming. The Baptist Church at Ninety-Six was struck by lightning on Friday last, and the steeple, roof, doors and windows were damaged to the amonnt of about SIOO. Ex-Treasurer McDevitt, wbo is quar tered in Columbia jail temporarily, is living in fine style. A handsome set of furniture was sent him a day or two ago. During storm last Friday, Mr. J. E. Schwerin, of Camden, was severely in jured by the falling of the large sash above the door of Mr. A. A. Solomon’s grocery. The store of James B. McCrary, at Clinton, S. C., was burned Sunday night, 16th instant. Loss fully $4,500; insurance, $2,000. Supposed incen diarism. A rifle club will be organized at Don naldsville, Abbeville county, on the first Saturday in August, at half-past one o’clock. Abont thirty-three names are on the roll now. The rain along the Greenville Road, between Columbia and Greenville, was pretty general on Sunday night, and tho planters and small farmers along the route were very grateful for it. The dwelling of John Carlos, colored, about a mile above CamdeD, waß totally destroyed by fire during the hea y storm on last Friday afternoon. Every thing contained in it was burned. Politically speakiDg, Gaffneys is all right for the straight-out Democratic ticket, and we are confident will poll a larger vote than ever, if the State ticket is made without any mixing.— Spartan. Private letters from Laurens state that on Wednesday, white John Kel lett, wbo lives about ten miles above that town, was on his way to his planta tion, he was fired upon from an ambush and killed. A difficulty occurred on Monday near Graham’s between a white man named Belk and a colored man named Powell, in which Belk was severely cot in the head and Powell shot in the face with small shot. The affair originated about some turpentine. Three suspicious characters have left Charleston for Columbia. As they are believed to belong to a gang of robbers that have been operating in Charleston and other cities, it is well for the police authorities of Columbia to keep a sharp lookout for them. During the storm on Friday evening last, at Spartanburg, Mr. George Abbott was severely shocked by lightning, whioh struck near the shops of Mr. James A. Fowler. Rev. W. L. Brown, near Glenu Springs, had a mule killed by a stroke of lightning on the same day. The recent rains have refreshed and enlivened the growing crops, which were suffering greatly in some parts of Marion county, so much ro that they are materially injured. This is not gen eral, and the crops in the larger pirt of the county are very five. The Saluda dam, whioh was broken by the late freshet, will bo repaired at once by Messrs. Mayhew and Dooley, the contractors. It is proposed to widen and straighten the proposed work to such an extent as to make a recur rence of the accident an impossibility. John Kellet, who was killed in Lau rens on the 19th, belonged to a gang of outlaws, who had depredated in the neighborhood. He was about to make some revelations, and it is thought lie was shot by a member of the gang. He was killed while at work in his field. The Saluda dam, which was broken by the late freshet, will be repaired at once by Messrs. Mayhew A Dooley, the contractors. It is proposed to widen and straighten the proposed work to such an extent as to make a recurrence of the accident an impossibility. A serious difficulty took place between two colored men on the plantation of Mr. A. J. Matheson, in Marion, on the 18th instant. The parties to the fracas were Jim Heneghan and Caesar Rodgers. Firearms were freely used, and Caesar now carries a pistol ball in his body which sticketh closer to him than a brother, and refuses to depart. The gin house of Dr. H. F. Gibson,in Fairfield county, was destroyed by fire on Friday last. The fire was caused by a spark from the engine. The engine and the cotton screw were saved, but the gin-head, thresher and fan, together with the entire stock of wheat and oats, were destroyed. The loss is estimated to be not less than one thousaud dollars. The gin house of Dr. H. F. Gibson, in Fairfield county, was destroyed by fire on Friday last. The fire was caused by a spark from the engine. The engine and the cotton screw were saved, but the gin head, thresher and fan, together with t|ie doctor’s entire stock of wheat and oats, were destroyed. The loss is estimated to be not less than one thous and dollars. A fire in Chester, on the night of the 20th instant, destroyed the store-house of W. H. Hix; the store-house and dwelling owned by John K. Coleman; store occupied by George Culp; also, a small frame building occupied by Strieker Brothers as a work shop. The fire was caused by the explosion of a lamp. Loss estimated at from §B,OOO to §9,000; iusnranee, §3,500. Wo would like to know the necessity for troops in this State. Is this thing of intimidating white men at the elec tions never to bo stopped ? In this State the negro party have a majority of thirty thousaud, and yet they cry for troops aud thus acknowledge their inability to run the government. The fact of their calling for troops to control the elections is evidence of their own consciousness of weakness. Ool.itnbia Union-Htrald: The Gov ernor yesterday granted a reprieve of three weeks to Jerry Coleman, sentenced to be hung at Abbeville on next Friday. An application for a commutation of the death sentence to imprisonment for life was made on Tuesday, aud, as there was no time for the Governor to examine the case, he granted a reprieve in order to enable him to make the necessary ex amination. Judge Cook, who visited the Governor yesterday, concurred in the propriety of the reprieve. An altercation took place at John M. Mackay’s farm on Long Cane, eight miles from Donaldsville.on Tuesday morniug, between John Wilson, a white man, and Samnel Williamc, colored. Tlie negro called Wilson a liar, when he strnck him. The negro returned the blow with a feuee rail, getting the best of the fight at that time, and the negro left for the j depot. Wilson borrowed a shot gun and followed Williams to Donaldsville and shot him in the left leg just above the ! knee, inflicting a severe wound. Wil-' liams was brought to his home in Bel ton on the train that afternoon. The' shooting took place about half-| ast twelve, and up to the time the train left Wilsoh had not been arrested. The diffi culty oocurred where the thresher had been running. The white man left, and on Thursday about twenty negroes, armed with a warrant went to arrest him, bat he could not be found. FORTY-FOUKTH CONGRESS. ProtMiilojs Yesterday. Washington. July 29 —The House proceeded to the discussion of the re ports of the Committee on Naval Affairs, the Speaker pro tern, holding that the matter pending at the previous adjourn ment took precedence of the business of the morning hoar, which is the consid eration of the bill to utilise the products of gold and silver mining At the con clusion of a very long debate the pre vions question was seconded and the matter went over to Monday, when the vote takes precedence of all other busi ness. There is a night session for de bate. The Senate had no session. The Wheel of Fortune. j New Orleans, Jly 29.—1n the third golden drawing of the Opera Honse to-day, the following numbers drew the large prizes: No. 2.876 drew §100,000; No. 10,179 drew §50,000; No. 10.820' drew §20,000; No. 9,701 drew §IO,OOO. WAR IN THE WEST. Reported Battle of (General Crook’* Com mand with the Indians Contradicted. Washington, July 29.—A special from Leavenworth, Kansas, says a Btory comes from Sidney, Nebraska, a recruit ing station on Union Pacific Railroad, near Cheyenne, that the Sionx attacked Crook’s camp, on Goose Creek, killing nearly 300, and that the command was driven across the creek. The story goes that on Wednesday evening A. T. Fray, post sutler at Camp Sheridan, arrived at Sidney, statiug that Lame Deer, a friendly chief, came into Camp Sheri dan thirty-six hours from the battle field, as a courier, stating that Crook had more men killed than Custer. Lame Deer says the Indiana have full sweep in the northern country, and propose, after driving the miners from the Black Hills, sweeping the agencies and attack ing the railroad stations. The reported attack appears made on Monday last. The report was regarded last night at General Sheridan's headquarters, in Chicago, as preposterous. Adjutant- General Dunn says had Lame Deer strnck for Sidney from Crook’s camp he should have passed Rsd Cloud and Spot ted Tail Agencies. Cheysnnh, July 29.—N0 authority for the report of General Crook’s figl n. The report was made at Sidney two weeks ago and contradicted from here by later dates. • New Yobk, July 29.—Four companies of United States troops, numbering 300 men, for the Indian frontier, leave Jer sey City to-morrow morning. Washington, July 29.—The Secretary of War has Hent to the House a letter from General Sheridan recommending an increase of companies of the Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth and Seventh Cav alry regiments to a hundred men, as was done on the Rio Grande. The num ber of men required will be 2,500, and the additional expense $1,634,700. Gen. Sheridan says in the letter : “The events which have occurred to the troops, and my knowledge of the strength of the Indians, and affairs at the agencies and in the field, will not warrant, at the present time, iu asking for volunteers. I have no objection to asking for them as soon as I conscientiously believe their services necessary, but I do not, from the disaster which came to Custer from a divided command, like to take all the responsibility of asking for vol unteers now. If Congress will increase the companies, as was done for the two regiments on the Rio Grande, we can till them up at once, and they will be sufficiently large to meet the wants of the service and relieve the public mind of the constant fear of disaster to our present insufficient force iu the Indian country.” Omaha, July 29.—An official telegram from Fort Laramie says a courier has just arrived from Red Cloud Agency, and says Red Cloud told him that Crazy Horse was coming into the agency very soon, and that his band was now on the way there. Twenty lodges had already arrived. Crazy Horse sent word to Captain Egan that lie would see him, shake hands, make a treaty, and be friendly Indian. The Indians lately arrived will not talk abont the fight, and pretend to know nothing about it. A council was held at Cheyenne catap, while the courier was detained there, to talk over the change from the civil to the military authorities. Many opposed it. Red Cloud has expressed satisfac tion at the change. Fears are enter tained that any attempts to deprive the Indians of their ponies and arms will meet with resistance, as they can muster a large force well armed, while thenumber of troops at the post is very small. It is thought they will allow themselves to be numbered withont opposition. Cheyenne, July 29.—Previous reports via Missonria river agencies are in part confirmed by news received, at Fort Lawrence from Red Cloud to-day. Runners arrived at the agency, said to have come from Crazy Horse’s band, state that that chief with a portion of his band had left Sitting Bull’s domains and are en route to the agencies, avow edly to treat for peace. The turning over of the, agencies at Red Cloud and Spotted Tail has beeu without difficulty. While a majority of the Indians are disposed to submit gracefully thereto, quite a number express dissatisfaction at having soldier fathers placed over them, and a final council is being held at Red Cloud to-day. Some dissatisfaction is felt by the Indians- at the meagre supply of food, which con sists entirely of corn, flour and beef. They insist on sugar, coffee and tobacco, in fulfilment of treaty stipulations; and further, in attributing the departure from the agencies of those who have joined the hostile bands to this fact, rather than to a desire for war. An ap prehension of inability to carry oat the orders—to disarm all these Indians be fore allowing them to return to the agency exists at Campi Sheridan and Robinson. Three companies of the Fifth Cavalry go to Camp Sheridan, in creasing the force at that post to four companies, while at Camp Robinson there are only three companies, exclu sive of one of the Third Cavalry at Sid ney Crossing, not far distant. The re port made by John Wariek in forward ing the memorandum book belonging to L. P. Richardson is contradicted by W. H. Hibbard, who arrived here this even ing, having met Richardson and a coach load of passeugers at Hot Creek, on the 26th instant. PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE. The Afl’air Between Gen. Gary and Captain Dawson. I desire to notice briefly the inunen does contained in an editorial of the Charleston News and Courier, of the 17th of July instant. Iu this issue of his paper it appears that Mr. F. W. Dawson has raised the “ blaok flag” against me, on account of a communi cation of mine to the Edgefield Adver tiser, of July 13th. In that article I said, “the carpet-bagger Chamberlain, through his organs, the Union Herald, of Columbia, and the News <pxd Courier, was making an industrious attempt to couvert the white peofile of the State to the Republican party.” This statement, he asserts, is “grossly UDjust and wholly untrue.” Recently, every issue of his paper contaius fulsome adulations of the carpet bag Goveraor Chamberlain, or a vigorous defense of his administration. With these facts before them, I am will ing for an impartial public to judge of the justness and truthfulness of this as sertion. I cheerfnlly accept the gauge of battle tendered by Mr. Dawson, and stand ready to meet his slanderous at tacks. I only hope, that should the con test wax warm, that he will not run up also the “white flag” and claim protec tion for his carcas. On with the attack, “and damned be he who first cries, ‘Hold ! enough !’ ” M. W. Gaby. Edgefield, S. C., July 18, 1876. In the Journal of Commerce of this day is a card from Mr. M. W. Gary, in which he repeats his misstatements iu regard to the News and Courier, adding some insolent allusions to me personal ly. There are public reasons, under stood in Charleston and elsewhere, which lead me to postpone, for the present, my rejoinder to his charges. Meantime, if Mr. Gary, who sets him- self up as a champion of the shot gun policy, feels any solicitude as to the likelihood of my raising the “white flag” at his coming, he should lose no time in resolving the doubt, unless he is content to be known throughout the State in the double character of slauder er and braggart. F. W. Dawson. Charleston, July 22, 1876. [N~l.] Edgefield C. H., S. C., July 25, 1876. Captain E. W. Lawson, Editor Charles ton Neivs and Courier: Sir— Your card published in the Charleston Jou nal of Commerce, of July 21th instant, must suggest to every “man of honor” my course of conduct toward you. In response to it I request that you will Dame, at an early day, some place outside the limits of the State of South Carolina, where I may address a further communication to you touching the affair between us. Your obedient servant, M. W. Gary. [no. 2.] Office of the News and Courier, j No. 19 Broad Street, > Charleston, S. G., July 25th, 1876. ) Gen. At. IF. Gary : Sib—Your note of this date is receiv ed. It is a well known fact iu Sooth Carolina that the principles by which I am governed do not allow me to engage |in a duel. Nonetheless do I hold my self personally responsible for every | word I have written, and especially for my opinions and language regarding you. I shall not, now or hereafter, go out of my way to meet you; bat I can al ! ways be fonnd by those who seek me. j You have intimated that there is a like lihood that I shall, at your ooming, raise the “white flag.” I have, in the plainest words I could command, bidden you put this to the test A hostile mes i sage, which it was a foregone conclusion ! that I should decline, may satisfy you. It certainly is not,under the circumstan ces, the most direct way to resent my course and maintain the position you had taken. I am, yours obediently, F. W. Da&sqk. Several prisoners captured by the Turks say they were recently released from the Russian army and the Servians are commanded by Russian officers. The Servians’ plan of operations has been changed. Prince Milan will command the western army in person. The Ser vians are massing in the valley of Mo royis. Local and Business Wntire*.

Among the bodily ills susceptible of complete removal by that benign tonic and alterative, Hostetler’s Stomach Bitters, are general debility, malarial fevers, constipation, dyspepsia, liver disorder and nervousness. its remedial capabilities are, however, by no means limited to thee maladies. Its properties as a blood depurent render it extremely serviceable in expelling the acrid imparities which produce these painful disorders, rheumatism and gout, aud its invigorating and mildly stimula ting effect upon the kidneys and bladder constitute it a useful medicine for im pelling those orgaus to a complete per formance of their functions when they are weak and inactive. Ia fact, there is scarcely any disease of which weakness is an accompaniment in which this ad mirable medicine cannot be used with advantage. jv3o (16&wl BAY MARE STOLEN. Blackville. S.

Editors Chronicle and Sentinel : On the night of 2>th July, inst., a fine large bay mare, with a small star in her face, scar on right hind leg be tween fetlock and knee, left hip lower than right, with speckles under belly, was stolen from my stables in Colleton county.

Florida Free Lands. IN ORANGE COUNTY, WITHIN Three Miles of Railroad Transpor tation. Lands Unsurpabsed For FRUITS aMFARMING. Office South Florida Land Agency, 1 Fort Mason. Orange C junty, Florida.) THE uudersigned have entered into a busi ness arrangement for the purpose of lo cating settlers on the public lands (either United States or State) in this aud adjoining counties. Looated iu the most delightful portions of Orange county, in a section of territory con ceded by all to be the best adapted to the cul ture of the orange and kindred fruits, and thoroughly acquainted with all the lands in this vicinity, we are better able to give information concerning the lands still vacant than any others engaged in the laud business in this county. The raiiroad now in course of construction connecting the St. John’s river at Lake George with Lakes Harris, Eustis, Griffiu, Dora and the ether headwater lakes of the Oclawaha river, will furnish all the surrounding lands with ample transportation facilities and place settlers within easy distance of the Northern and Eastern markets. THE CLIMATIC ADVANTAGES Of this section of territory are so well known as scarcely to need recapitulation. Vegetables and tropical fruits can be grown throughout the year .without danger from cold. The severest floats of this lake region do not in jure vegetation, as was proven during the past Winter, when the frosts killed early vegetables at considerable distances south of us and left this region untouched—not a blade of grass being injured. HOMESTEADS NEAR THE RAILROAD. We are now prepared to locate settlers on the public lands in close proximity to the railroad. One of the undersigned (Mr. John S. Banks) has just completed a thorough survey of a large tract of United States lands, situated at from three to six miles distance from the rail road. These lands are not only admirably adapted to the culture of oranges, but are also exoellent for farming pui poses, and can be easily brought into cultivation, the old settlers in the vicinity raising an abundaqjt supply of com, cotton, sugar, etc., mpen them. GET A HOMESTEAD NOW. Parties who propose settling in Florida will find it greatly to their advantage to obtain their homesteads during the Summer months, and thus avoid the rash of the Fall months. Those desiring to locate near the railroad will obtain ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY ACRES FREE If their entry i* made before the completion of tilt road. After its completion, which will be some time this coming Fall, they will not he per mitted toenter more than eighty acres. Persons locating during the Summer cau also get their lauds in read.uess for a crop of early vege tables next Winter, and thus be enabled to re alize a profit from the lands immediately. We are now PREPARED TO LOCATE SETTLERS, Singly or in colonies, at moderate rates, and in every case we guarantee complete satisfaction.

FURTHER DETAILS Can be obtained by addressing (with stamp en closed for reply) the undersigned. Prompt at tention given to all letters. Address BANKS & ST. CIAIR-ABB AMS. Fort Jlason, Orange county, Florida. To My Friends in Georgia, Alabama and south Carolina. In response to many letters received by me, I have entered into a business arrangement with Mr. JOHN S. BANKS for the purpose of locating settlers on the public lands of this aud adjoining counties. Mr. BANKS is a prac tical surveyor of many years’ experience, and possesses a thorough knowledge of the public lands, having been United States Register of Public Lands in this State. We have ex plored and surveyed a considerable tract of these lands, and we are now prepared to locate settlers on CHOICE HOMESTEADS. Many persons have written me expressing a desire to move to this State dhring the present year. These I would advise to OBTAIN THEIR HOMESTEADS NOW. In the Fall months the rush of Northern settlers is so great that it is difficult to obtaiu choice homesteads; whereas at present the travel is light, and one can se lect a place with greater ease. In addition, the large tract of homlstead lands contiguous to the railroad, recently surveved and opened up for settlement by Mr. BANKS, if not en tered this Summer wifi inevitahiy be taken up by the first mfinx of. Northern travelers next Fall. As my desire (without prejudice to Northern settlers) is to locate the numerous citizens of the States above nam and on choice Homesteads, while able so, I urge them to make the selections at ouoe, and thus se cure valuable and eligible homes in this State.

THE ADVERTISER has enjoyed such a run of advertising for the last forty years that it seems superfluous now to publish its merits as an advertising medium, but it is tho Centennial year, and everybody is doing some thing new that was never done before. It will suffice to say that the population of Edgefield county is 43,486, according to census 1870, and that THE ADVERTISER is the only paper in the county: that it also circulates freely in the counties of Abbeville, Aiken, Barnwell, Lau rens, and in the States of Georgia, Alabama Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas ana Florida.
