Ou the night of Thursday, 20th July,
the store of J. F. Carswell A Cos., iu
Hephzibuh. Richmond oouuiy, Ga., was
eutored aud robbed of something more
than one hundred dollars' worth of
goods; oloth, tobacco, shoes, &a. The
thief made bis entrauoe by boring (with
a two inch auger) through the door
aud raising up the pi nL which he bored
through. He opeued the back door and
carried out what he warned. Mr. J. E,
Carswell, one of the parties interested,
spnt Friday trying to dud out where
the goods were carried, by tracking the
thieves, inquiring, Ac. By Saturday
morning he found that there was strong
reason to belieTe that Bob Green,
living near Butler's crerk on Mr.
Jeff Thomas’ land, was the thief.
Accordingly he got a warrant from
Judge Milo Otiu and had his house
searched, aud fonud about sixty dollars'
worth of goods. Bob Green fled from
his house just as Mr. Carswell and the
officer eame in sight. He is said to
hare uever returned to his house after

before this. He ia brother to Tom
Green, who was sentenced last April by

CAPT. F. EIMJK WORTH EYE.
Editors Chronicle and Sentinel:
While I am not a citizen of Columbia,
it gives me pleasure to observe the
prominence of this gentleman for the
Legislature. Having known him from
boyhood, I am prepared to testify to his
qualifications for the position. Of in
flexibility, integrity and varied attain
ments, Capt. Eve would make a faithful
and able representative. He is also a
practical farmer and thoroughly ac
quainted with the agricultural wants of
the State. I question very mnch, Messrs.
Editors, whether a more suitable man
could be found anywhere to represent
his county in the General Assembly.
It was my privilege to serve with him
in the army. There was not a better
soldier in the entire corps of which he
was a member. For bravery, skill, de
votion to duty and dash, lie was tbe ad
miration of bis comrades. Believing
that he would succeed as well in civil as
in military position, I hope the people
of Columbia will return him to the Leg
islature. At the same time I trust they
will not con ider this communication an
intrusion. It is prompted onljj by the
ties of friendship and a desire to see
good men in tbe counsels of the State.
Cobb Legion.
On His Travels. —Some days since a
man who stated that his name was J. W.
Cook, and that he was in the employ of
the Greenville and Columbia Railroad,
called at the office or Capt. F. K. Huger,
Agent of the South Carolina Railroad
in this city, aud piesented to that gen
tleman a letter purporting to have been
written by Thos. Dodamead, General
cuperintendeut of the Greenville and
Columbia Railroad, accompanying the
presentation with a request for a pass
over the South Carolina Railroad to
Columbia. After readiug the letter,
Capt. Huger became oonvineed that it
had never been written by Mr. Doda
mead. Turning to Cook, Capt. Huger
said. “Why, this is not Mr. Dodamead’s
handwriting." “No,” said Cook, “it
was written by his clerk at his instance.”
“Weil,” said Capt. Huger, “I will have
to telegraph to Columbia aud ask Mr.
Dodamead about it before I can give
you a pass.” “Oh, don't trouble your
self," replied Cook, “I will get a pass
over the Charlotte, Columbia and Au
gusta Railroad,” and he walked
out of the office. His letter of recom
mendation bore the endorsement of fif
teen or twenty Western railroad super
intendents, showing that he had made
pretty extensive use of it. After he had
left the office Capt. Hager telegraphed
to Mr. Dodamead and received a reply
that he had neither given nor authoriz
ed suoh a letter to be given to Cook,who
had been discharged from the employ
of the oompany. Ascertaining that Cook
had left for Oolnmbia on the train of
the Charlotte, Columbia and Augnsta
R .ilroad, Capt. Huger telegraphed to
Mr. Dodamead information of that fact
in order that he might have him arrest
ed. Whether he was arrested or not
Capt Huger has not learned. He has
since received the following communi
cation from Mr. Dodamead;
General Superintendents Office, j
Greenville and C. R. R. Cos., v
Columbia, S. C., July 20, 1876. )
To F. AT. Huger, Esq.:
Having been informed by the officers
of several roads South and' West of this
place that a former employee of this
company, J. W. Gook, has presented
letters of recommendation purporting to
have been issued from my office, and by
this means obtained passes over a num
ber of roads, I deem it proper to state
that no such letters havp been furnished
him by any officer of this company; and
any which have or may be presented by
him of this character are forgeries.

PROMISE AND PERFORMANCE.
The proprietors of Hostetter’s Stom
ach Bitters promise nothing in behalf of
this famous tonic and regulating elixir
which it will not perform. No preten
sions irreconcilable with common sense
are made in reference to it, bnt evidence
of the most positive nature has been
accumulating for over a quarter of a
century in its behalf which proves it to
be a reliable preventive and curative of
malarial diseases, an efficient and genial
tonic and general corrective, and speci
ally valuable in cases where the bowels,
liver, stomach or urinary organs are
affected. Debility, the source from
whence so many bodily evils spring, is
entirely remedied by the invigorative
action of the Biters, which arrests pre
mature decay and repairs losses ol ner
vous and muscular power while improv
ing the appetite aud rendering diges
tion easy. ag6-d6&wl
ON THE FOURTH.
People are apt to overload their stom
ach by eating and drinking two much.
They get sick and feverish, the bowels
become constipated, the liver torpid,
and general ill-health follows unless the
proper remedy is taken at once.
Those who have not tried “Merrells
Hepatine” lor the Liver, have no idea
how quickly these bad symptoms disap
pear by usiDg this new discovery. There
is no need of enduring the torment
arising from disordered Liver, Stomach
andKidneya. If you will go to Barrett &
Land, Augusta, Ga., aDd get a bottle
of the “Hepatine,” which contains fifty
doses—you will be cured before fifty
doses are all taken. d&w

VEG-ETTJSTE
Purifies the Blood, Renovates and In
vigorates the Whole System.
Its Medical Properties are
ALTERATIVE, TOMC, SOLVtNT
AM DIURETIC,
VEGETINE is made exclusively from the
juioes of carefully-selected barks, roots and
herbs, and so strongly concentrated that it
will effectually eradicate from the system
every taint of Scrofula, Scrofulous Hu
mor, Tumors, Caneer, Cancerous Hu
mor. Erysipelas, Salt Rheum, Syphil
itic Diseases, Canker, Faintness at the
Stomach, and all diseases that arise from
impure blood. Sciatica, Inflammatory
and Chronic Rheumatism, Neuralgia,
Gout aud Spinal Complaints can only
be effectually cured through the blood.
For Ulcers and Eruptive diseases of
the Skin—Pustules, Pimples, Blotches,
Boils, Tetter, Scaldhead and Ring
worm, VEGETINE has never failed to effect
a perm meat cure.
For Pains in the Back, Kidney Com
plaints, Dropsy, Female Weakness,
Leuco rhoea, arising from internal ulcera
tion. aud uterine diseases and General De-
Dility, VEGETINE acts directly upon the
causes of these complaints. It invigorates

the secretive organs, allays inflammation,
cui es ulceration and regulates the bowels.
For Cata rh, Dyspepsia, Habitual
Costiveness, Palpitation of the Heart,
Headache, Piles, Nervousness and
General Prostration of the Nervous
Bystem, no medicine has ever given such
perfect satisfaction as the VEGETINE. It
purifies the blood, cleanses all of the organs,
and possesses a controlling power over the
nervous system.
The remarkable cures effected by YEGT -
TINE have induced many physicians ana
apothecaries whom we know to prescribe and
use it in their own families.
In fact, VEGETINE is the best remedy yet
discovered for the above diseases, and is the
only reliable- BLOOD PURIFIER yet
placed before the public.

VALUABLE INFORMATION.
Boston, December 12, 1869.
Gentlemen —My only object in giving you
this testimonial is to spread valuable informa
tion. Having been badly afflicted with Salt
bheum. and the whole surface of my skin be
ing covered with pimples and eruptions, many
of which caused me great pain and annovance.
and knowing it to be a blood disease, I took
many of the advertised blood preparations
among whiah was any quantity of Sarsaparilla,
without obtaining any benefit until I commenc
ed (taking the Yegeti-e, and before I had
completed the first bottle I saw that I had got
the right medicine. Consequently, I followed
on with it until I had taken seven bottles,
when I was pronounced a well man. aud my
skin is smooth and entirely free from pimples
and eruptions. I have never enjoyed so good
health before, and I attribute it ail to the use
of Yeoetine. To benefit those afflicted with
Rheumatism. I will make mention aIBO of the
Vegetine’s wonderful power of curing me of
this acute complaint, of which I have suffered
so intensely. C. H. TUCKER,

ORANQe COUNTY,

Three Miles of Bailresd Transpor
tation.
Lands Unsurpassed For
FfiUITS aMFARMING.
Office South Florida Land Agency, i
Fort Mason, Orange County, Florida.)
THE undersigned have entered into a busi
ness arrangement for the puipose of lo
cating settlers on the public lands (either
United States or State) in this and adjoining
counties.
Located in the most delightful portions of
Orauge county, in a section of territory con
coded by all to be the best adapted to the cul
ture of the orange and ltindrod fruits, and
thoroughly acquainted with all tlio lands in this
vicinity, we are hotter able to give information
concerning the lauds still vacant than any
others engagod in the land business in this
county.
The railroad now In oourse of construction
connecting the St. John’s river at Lake George
with Lakes Harris, Enstis, Griffin, Dora and
the other headwater lakes of the Oclawaba
river, will furnish all the surrouuding lands
with ample transportation facilities and place
settlers within easy distanco 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 frosts of this lake regiou do not in
jure vegotation, as was proven during the past
Winter, when the frosts killed early vegetables
at considerable dietancos 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 tha
public lands in close proximity to the railroad.
One of the undersigned (Mr. John S. Banks)
has just oompleted a thorough survey of a
largo tract of United States lauds, 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
excellent for farming purposes, and can be
easily brought into cultivation; the old sattler*
in the vicinity raising an abundant supply of
com, cotton, sugar, eto., upon them.
GET A HOMESTEAD NOW.
Parties who propose setrling in Florida will
find it greatly to their advantage to obtain
their homesteads during the Summer months,
and thus avoid the rush of the Fall months.
Those desiring to locate near the railroad will
obtain
ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY ACRES FREE
If their entry is made before the completion of
thi road. After its completion, which will ba
sometime this coming Fall, they will not bo per
mitted to enter more than eighty acres. Persons
locating during the Summer can also get their
lands in read.ness for a crop of early vege
tables next Winter, and thus be enabled to re
alize a profit from the lands immediately. Wa
are now
PREPARED TO LOCATE SETTLERS,
Singly or in colonies, at moderate rates, and in
every case we guarantee complete satisfaction.
No lands will tie located by us uutll one of us
have thoroughly surveyed them, and in all
our patrons shall be given the best tracts
of which we have any knowledge, without
favoritism or partiality being shown to any
one.
STATE LANDS.
We are also prepared to locate, survey and
purchase any desired quantity of Sta‘, e lauds
and will perfoim this work either f' jr a speci
fied price in money or for an agier J( l upon per
centum of land. We now have some choice
pieces of State land marked o.ot on our maps
which have been surveyed t>v us, aud which
are among the best lands in this Stat3.
FURTHER DETAILS
Can be obtained by addressing (with stamp en
closed for reply) tfie undersigned. Prompt at
tention given to all letters. Address
BANKS & ST. CLAIR-ABRAMS,
Fort Mason, Orange county, Florida.
To My Friends hi Georgia, Alabama
and Souih Carolina.
In response to many letters received by me,
I have entered into a business arrangement
with Mr. JOHN S. BANKB for the purpose of
locating settlers on the public lands of thia
and adjoining counties. Mr. BANKS is a prac
tical surveyor of many years’ experienoe, and
possesses a thorough knowledge of the pnblic
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 daring 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 obtain choice homesteads; whereas
at present the travel is light, and one oa.u se
lect a place with greater ease. In addition,
the large tract of homlstead lands contiguous
to the railroad, recently snrveved and opened
up for settlement by Mr. RANKS, if not en
tered this Summer will inevitably bo taken up
by the first influx of. Northern travelers next
Fall. As my desire (without prejudice to
Northern settlers) is to locate the numerous
citizens of the States above nam-d on choice
Homesteads, while able to do so, I urge them
to intake the Beleoliouß at once, and thus ee
cure valuable and eligible bomeßin this State.
