, % Our Future?
Now thai the mighty conflict, which haa
been so tealously waged, during tha
or eight months, throughout tha broad extent
of our country haa baeu brought to a close,
* and tha smoke of battle cleared sufficiently to
enable on to survey the held, and enumerate
the gains and 'lottos, 1st us phylesophlcally
abide the result, hopefully and earnestly oontemplatlog
tha future. Gen. liuauir has beau
ro-elected to tho Presidency of tho Up i tod
States, whilst Gen. Mosas has beeu selected
by the poople of South Carolina, to serve them,
as their Governor, each by 07erwhelming
majorities. Although both of these diatin*
gulshed personages exult in the high and honorable
title of General yat wa oannotsay that
the success of each is attributable to bis deeds
of daring, or high examples of military prowess,
nor do wa design at this time to discuss
tho causes which induced the promotion of
thoso individuals. The fiat has gone forth
and in these are the embodiment of our hopes
to fill up the *' bloody chasm." Whether the
unprecedented triumph of Gee. Grant is to be
esteemed ft signal illustration of the aagaolty
and patriotism of the American people,)perhaps
thoso who contributed, with so mush
zoal to his victory. will not deny. Let us wait
and soe.
We know the defeated are prone to be despondent,
and after an overwhelming victory
npt to become demoralised* whilst the more
independent and dispassionate strenuously
duuiand and earnestly insist, that the result
.-hall not be suffered to over-bear or obscure
any truth which boa rightfully and honestly
been contended for. The returns show that
the South has given Gen. Grant a small majority.
Lot us accept this result, and liko
mon who have common interests, and an earnest
desire for oUr country's weal, strive byunK
ted effort to build up our section's industrial
ami commercial prosperity. We cannot afford
to waste years in sighing for the impossible,
or strivcing for that which is, at this timo, beyond
our roach. Lot us realise and keep constantly
in view the fact, " that we have yet a
homo to adorn, nnd a country to live for." We
must livo, and lire here. It is our homo, it is
our country. All the affections of our hearts
cling around this grand little Stato; and the
world can never boost of better men, truer
hearts or wiser statesmanship. Bnt we cannot
lire in the midst of turmoil and sterilo agitation.
Much has been done in the way of recuperation
since the war, bnt mnch more remains
to be accomplished. May we net hope
that the close of tho late canvass, marks the
opening of a new era, wherein publio measures
of great moment shall be considered without
prejuUico, ana either approved or condcmnefl
according to their intrinsic worth. It is possible
to mnko public opinion inoro powerful by
aiding to inako it more discerning and just.?
The returns also show that the opposition will
be weaker in this Congress, than the last. This
waakness may be advantageous to them, as
the strength of those in power may be a source
of peril to them.
John lt.VNDoi.rn once said that one was the
best possible majority. When Mr. Munrok
was chosen President with only one dissenting
elector, the party which elected him, at
the ensuing election, dissolved into fragments
and had four candidates in the field. It is to
bo hoped that these facts will not be lost sight
of by the prevailing party, and that the second
administration of Gen. Grant may prove
a just and successful one. In reference to
State affairs, we can offer no award of encouragement,
as yet. The recently elected State
officials have not taken chargo of the Stato
government up to this writing, but it is earnestly
desired that they may see it to their
own interest, anck-to the intorest of their party
in this State, as it really and truly is, henceforth
to administer prudently, economically
and with justice. Doing this, they can rest
assured that they will receive their full measure
of reward from the Conservative voters
and press throughout the State.
Another Firo in Abbeville.
An extra from the office of the Mali am
conveys to us the startling news of the terrible
calamity which has again and so shortly
revisited our sister town of Abbeville. A
distinctive fire on the morning of the 17th
inst., lias swept away the neat and costly
buildings which composed the Granite
flange, and what was once a monument of
t.he?!abor and industry ol years, now lies a
heap of charred and blackened ruins. It is
supposed that the origin of the fuc was in
the kitchen of Mr A M Hill, whose wife was '
with t lie irreatest difficult v saved from the;
fliimi f. Burn well A Co. hail their store
burned, and saved nothing ; insurance, $6,
000. The store of A M Hill A Co waa also
burned, a portion of their stock being saved
; insured for $2,S00 in the Continental.
The furnitdfe store of J D Chalmers A Co
was also destroyed by the devouring element.
A portion of their stock was also
saved ; insured for $l.,600. The Clerk's,
Sheriff** and County Commissioners' offices
were totally consumed, with al^their books*
papers and record*. It will be recollected,
that these offices sustained heavy losses by
fire in January last; now nothing is left.?
Such a loss is incalculable, and must cause
complications and embarrassments. At the
drng store of Lee A Paiker, the fire ended
in a southerly direction, 'A portion of their
stock was saved. Insurance $2,000. The
progress of the fire in a northerly direction
whs checked at the wall of the store of

eympalhy, and it is to be sincerely hoped,
that those who were so prudent as to in*
sure, will be, in a great measure, able to
repair their losses.

The Tax Levy.
The Comptroller Gen has issued an officia

about fifteen tnilla. But from the light* be*

holding on to their money until the 1st January

Tue Prksidknt and tiik South.?A telegrain
to the Savannah Advertiser, under
date November 13, says; Tiie President
this morning, in conversation with your
correspondent, expressed a desire for peace
throughout the country, and said he would
labor for that object?that he was a friend
of the South, and was anxious thai the peo
pie of that section should look upon him as
such. Now that the excitement of the political
coutest was over, and all vexed ques
lions were settled for the next four years,
he hoped the people of the South would devole
themselves to the developing of the
vast resources of their section, and kind relations
between the two races, &c , in aid
of whioh they would find no more kind
friend than himself.
BrmcnMcss Cannot Last Forvvicr.?The
bitterness of the late contest has taught
the country a lesson We think, in the fu.
ture, we shall have less crimination and
vilification. We hope those people at the
North who have given too easy credence
to the lilood.snd.lhnnilar itiniilku. ?l
orators respecting the South, will re? io (he
noble betting of our people, under contumely
nnd defeat, some;lung better than
they have been taught to believe concerning
us. One thing we feel assured of. Tne
bitter feeling engendered in the recent
campaign will leave too sore a memory for
the same things to occur again soon And
we are depostd to think that the acrimony
that has marked our political oanvns?e?
generally in the pist will not characterize
the contests of the future
[Phanix, 17/A.
Abihino the Issue ?Under this head, the
New York Tribune, among other things
says: "The lata canvass has enlightened
the North with regard to Southern local
rule, its causes and its perils. No one
longer pretends that things are as they
should be at the South, even in Slates like
South Csroliua, where Republican rule
meets no serious opposition. It is quile
generally understood that Universal Suffrage
is not all that is required; there
must be a hearty accord between the educated
and lh<> better class of manual laborers.

Cnanges of Food in the Inteotlne*
The final stage of digestion has for it object
the converting into blood of so much of the
food as has not been already absorbed directly
front the stomach. The sestof ibis process is
in the intestines. In the duodenum (the portion
of the intestines neit to the stomach) the
food, dissolved in the gastrlo juice, is commingled
with tbo bile and the panoreatic fluid,
which are poured in through two separate
ducts. The latter substance, the secretion of
the pencreas, is alkaline, and somewhat similar
to saliva. It neutralises(that is, dissolves)
oils ; and also converts starchy compounds in
to augur. The bile, again, ia the secretion of
the liver, formed not aa other aeoretlona, from
arterial, but, exceptionally, from ?*??
blood. Tbe diaaolred food, after paaaing from
the atomaeh, ia abeorbed by numerous minute
tubes, the lactrato, and, through the thoracic
duet, ia led from the laeteals to the left subclavian
vein, and thus into the general circulation.
The food ao becomes part of tbe blood
the fluid which renovates tbe worn-out tissues
of the system, worn-out in life'* eeaseless wear
and tear, ltut, besides being an agent in the
digestive process, the bile is also nature's
ehosen and most efficient laxative and purgative.
Now Dr. Fisch's Bitters promote, (at
tbe same time regulating,) the flow of this secretion.
Tbe system is thus effectually secured
from biliousness on the one hand, and
from constipation on the other. Violent purging
is not the way to remove constipation.?
Neither is violent purging a purifier of tbe
blood. An abundanoe of food, with an abnndanee
of bile and the allied fluids, to digest It,
will make an abundanoe of good, nourishing,
strengthening blood, not needing purifying.

Symptoms of Liver Complaint and of Some
of the Diseases Prodaeed by it.
A sallow or yellow color ol skin, or yellowish
brown spots on the face and other parts of the
body; dultnes and drowiness with frequent
headache; dizziness, bitter or had teste in i
mouth, dryness of throat and internal beat,
, palpitation, in many cases a dry, teasing
cough, with sore throat; onstcady uppetile, a ,
raising of food, and a choking sensation in i
throat; distress, heovioess, or bloated or full i
feeling about stomach and sides, pain in sides, <
back or breast, and about shoulders, colic, i
pain and soreness through bowels, with heat;
constipation, alternating with frequent attacks
of diarrhoea; piles, flatulence, nervousness, j
coldness of extremities ; rush of blood to head,
with symptoms of appoplexy ; numbness of
limbs, especially at night; cold chills elternnting
with hot flashes, kidney and urinary difficulties
; foinnle weakness nnd irregularities,
with dullness, low spirits, unsociability and i
gloomy forebodings. Only a few of the above
symptoms are likely to be present in nny case
at one time. All who use Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery for liver complaint and its J
complications are loud iu its praise. Sold by
all druggists every wbero. ,
The Warning has ceen Heeded.
Since the exposure of the attempts made by |
certain unscrupulous local dealers, to palm off '
their coarse astringentj, made from cheap and
impure materials, n the place of the great national
tonic, Hosteller's Stomach Bitters, pub- 1
lie opinion hat set strongly against those tinpirics
and their preparations. Their occupation
is gone, or soon will be. When the light is
let into deception it soon wilts down. Persons
who trifle with their own health, by using uns
known preparations, with no guarantee to sustain
them, when an established specific, proven
by twenty years experienoe to be exactly what
it it olaitned to be, is within their reach, are
sure to repent their temerity. Many have
done so in this instance, but it is hoped that
the truth plainly spoken has arrested the evil.
In the meantime the demand for the leading
protective and restorative medieina of Atneru
ca was never so great as it has been this season.
From the fever and agno districts of the
west, and south, it is literally overwhelming,
and it may be said of the advices from all
parts of the country of the cares it is effecting
in dispepsia, bilious complaints, and chronic
constipation, that " their name is leghjq."?
Everywhere the siek and feeble seem to have
realised the importance of ' holding fast that
which is good," and avoiding what is spurious
and dangerous.
The numerous " Bitters," under various
names, whiob mercenary dealers endeavor to
substitute for Hosteler's Stomach Bitters,
should be avoided, for their own sokes, by the
sick and the public at large. Uosteter's
Stomach Bitters are procurable in bottles only
and never sold in bulk.

Dr. Wih. H. Tuti i
Dear Sir?I feel it a doty to suffering hu
inanity to make public the graat merits of
your Extract Sarsaparilla and Queen's Delight.
For years I have been a great sufferer, .
iny general health broke down, and I waa affected
with nerrouaneaa of the moat terrible
character, which waa aoon followed by an
eruption all over the bo^jr, forming large
nloera In soma plaoea, and attended with rheun
malic paina. Tongue cannot deacribe my Buffering.
I waa reduced a I moat to a skeleton,
and had a perfect loathing of food. I woa at,
tended by aeveral phyaiciana, who rendered
me no relief. I despaired of ever being well
again, but thanks to a kind Providence I accidentally
beard of yonr medicine. I sect for
half a doten bottles, and before I had taken
them I began to feel belter, my appetite improved,
and the rheunaatio paina became less
severe, and I could enjoy sleep. I have con- 1
tinned its use and have taken eleven bottles,
and believe 1 am a sound man again. The
ulcers have all healed, my skin Is smooth and I
healthy, and I have gained 22 pounds lo
weight. 1 believe my sickness resulted from
a taint of scrofula, I would earnesiy recommend
your compound to my fellow sufferers. (
With deep gratitude to you,
I am ever vour Irlend, .
