BILE BEANS! V.’lict n funny name
for a medicine! Nevertheless it is very
siL'niiicant as applied to tho article. ■
Hile, according to W ebster, is “a y< 1-
lowish bitter, viscid nausceous fluid, 1
secreted by the Hver.” Whenever the I
liver does n< t act properly this fluid is i
retained in the blood and poisons the |
whole system, and sallownessaiKt misery i
is the result. SMITH’S BILE BEANS
is a sin e cure for biliousness and liver I
complaint. Price, 25 cents per bottle.
Free Advice-
Gratuitous advice generally avails
nothing, however, we will venture:
keep your premises free of all kinds
of filth and rubbish and use lime and
carbolic acid freely.
Killed by Lightning.
On Monday at noon, during a se
vere thunder storm, lightning struck
the house of Morgan Walton, on the
Martinez place in this county, killing
Walton instantly. He and family, five
in number, were at dinner. The de

place and consequently received the
full force of the stroke as it passed
down the chimney. Very little damage
done to the house, one plate shivered.
The rest of the family unharmed.

BY LEON.
Your rural correspondent has had
a desperate struggle with Gen. Green.
Crops in many places in this coun
ty present a poor appearance,
especially cotton. It has looked bad
all the year, owing to the coolness of
the weather and much rain in many
places. Sandy and upland corn gen
erally is somewhat damaged by too
much rain.
Some of our farmers will hardly get
out of the grass this season until frost
shall stop the raging monster.
A petition is being signed up by
the citizens of this county to have tha
stock law repealed in Richmond
county at the next session of the Gen
eral Assembly. Mr. Fleming, of Au
gusta, promises to put forth efforts
willingly and manfully in that direc
tion should he be elected
Rev. Sain Jones says when he gors
to bed at night, he goes there to rest
nnd sleep and refresh himself. He
don’t lie down to study and ponder
over the past ills of life, nor give way
to anticipating misfortunes in the fu
ture. That, will do very well for Mr.
Jones, but when a man’s crop is en
veloped in grass and it is still raining,
if he can go to bed and sleep without
devoting iu. hour or two to contem
plation, he is not much account. It
is our nature and it seems like we
can’t help meditating a little upon
probab e failures; not of great wealth,
but of daily bread.

The commencement season has
opened in earnest, as we have already
had several, and several more are yet
to come. Comparing the last three,
namely St. Patricks, Sacred Heart
and Tubman High School which
were, held last week, I would say, St
Patricks for wit, Sacred Heart for
Music and Tubman High School for
talent. The Tubman High School
had the largest crowd that lias ever !
been in the Opera House, competent
judges estimating the crowd at
fifteen hundred, but I think seventeen
hundred would come nearer the
mark. The recitation of Miss Minnie I
Miller was pronounced by all to be
one of the finest efforts of the season. I
The singing of Miss Tillie O’Brien, of
the Sacred Heart Academy, was gran 1
and her voice is worth a fortune to
her. She has rich full soprana voice.
The valedictory delivered by Mr. P.
J. Hughes, of the St. Patricks, was the
finest undoubtedly that has been
delivered here this year. He will
yet make his mark. He has a brilliant
future before him.
The Houghton Institute Com- I
rneficernent wih be held at the Opera !
House July 6th. It will draw a
crowd as large as that at the Tubman .
exhibition. A play written by the
Principal of the School, Prof. Sliecut,
entitled “Seaside Mystery,” will be
produced. The commencements of
this school are always deservedly
popular owing to the efforts of Prof.
Shecut to please the public. Your

our growing city in various ways It

principal benefits
Quite an interesting case came up
before Judge Roney Monday t’bili,
that of J. M. AY niton, executor of Mia
Emily Tubman vs. The City Cmmcil < f
Augusta. The question is, Who shall
be trustee to administer the will of
Richard H. Tubman who gave nil Ins
property in trust to Augusta for the
erection of a poor bouse and for the
support of the poor of this county.
There are four claimants the city"

argument reserved his decision. Tl <r
verdict will settle the question id is
thought.
Our base ball club is going )»er
cei tibly down and great fears ins"
entertained that the club will have t«r
give up the ghost. It is rumored it
is on its hist, legs, caused by the re
cent. heavy defeats of the team ami a
want of cash in the treasury occasion
ed thereby. It is hoped that she
will not have to give up. so long ns l
she has got this far. The stock
holders have paid well for the sport
in this city, but the citizens do not
seem to appreciate their efforts, thnt?
is, they do not patronize the game aw
they should. 'They have sold Henry
Kappel, the best player ju the teiine
t<> Charleston for six hundred dollars.
He is a gentleman and has won the'
respect of the people of t his city. Hh
has played honest, faithful ball for
this city, and they have never htid a 1
better player. The Clwonide is
mistaken when it says his release was
wise, it is one of the worst things
they could have done. We have to
put old Bill Harbridge in the box to
pitch for us. That is our worst weak
spot And the managers appear to’
have no desire to remedy it
A large crowd of young ladies and
gentlnien went to Beaufort last" Satur
day on the special train. They were
tendered a german at, the Hea Island
Hotel nnd had quite an enjoyable
iiin<. Brother Gibson, of the Evening
News, must be smitten with some of
the Augusta delegation.
The Legialatire race is getting red
hot. 'The candidates have only two
more days to work and they “are
making hay while the sun shines.”
'1 he Fifth Ward has been chosen us
by mutual conient as thebattle ground.-
Every night the candidate can be
seen with his usual smile and “how
dye do” meandering in that direc
tion. The race has altered very little
if any. AU of the candidates are"
“going in” good humoredly and there
is no “mud slinging”in thecampaign.
The race will be a dose one.
Rain! rain! rain! we have been
having in abundance. .Sunday even
ing it poured in blinding sheets for
nearly four hours and nearly deluged
the town. It rained off and on all
day Monday, and shows no sign of
cessation
The death rate this year has been
greater in this city than for man ,«
many years past. We have hsu
thirty deaths in this city this week,
sixteen colored and fourteen white,
and besides we have several more
days of the month to count in yet.
There is no epidemic but it is nearly
every kind of disease, principally
minor causes.
Gordon’s friends in this city are*
jubilant, over his great victory Hatur--
day. The Bacon men are considera
bly down-hearted and seem to have
given up the race. A perceptible'
falling off of the Chronicle’s ardor is
noticed. Reports of Gordon's great
sweep are headed “Unheard of condi
tion of affairs. Gordon gets in his*
little batch of counties,” etc.
