Wo put on record, in our present iisue, a full
but ?implo statement of tho fuots, as dovoloped by
tbo trial, last week, boforo the Court or? OouornV
gestions, (Juilgo John X. Creon presiding) ut this
place, of tho supposed Ku Klux Klan of Sumter,
fur tho burning of tho atoros of Robertson and

Tlie luw was administered, by tho presiding
Judge, in its dignity, Us justice, and striotly in
its ?nina i tin li ty, und atcordiug to tho rules of j
coioiuun practice, and the fuots speak for them,

In these eases, loo, to which Gov. Scott and

What is tho rational modo of proceduro in
cases of general debility and norvou* prostration?
Docs not reason tull us that judicious stimulation
is required? To rt sort to violent purgation in
suob a eas? ls tis Absurd ns it would bo to bleed u
starving mun. Yet it ls do no every day. Yes,
this stupid mid unphilosnphical practico is con?
tinued in tho tooth of tho great fact that physical
weakness, with all tho nervous disturbances
that accompany lt, is moro certainly and rapidly
relieved by Hosteller's .Stomach Hitters than by
any other medicine ntprosout known. Il is true
that gcuoral debility is often attondod with tor?
pidity or irregularity of tho bowols nod that this
symptom must not bo overlooked. Hut while
tho discharge of tho waste matter of tho sys to in ls
expedited or regulated, its vigor must be recruited
Tho Hitlers do both. They combino aperient and
anti-bilious properties, with extraordinary tunic
power. Even while removing obstructions from
tho ho weis, they toi'.e ?ind invigorate thoso organs.
Through tho stomach, upon which thc great vogo
.ablo sp?cifie acts directly, lt gives a healthy
and permanent impetus to every enfeebled func?
tion. Digestion is facilitated, Ibo faltering circu?
lation regulated, tho blo?it reinforced with a now
accession of tho alimentary principle, tho nerves
braced, and all tho dormant powers of Ibu
system roused into healthy action; not spasmod?
ically, ns would lo tho caso if a, lucio stimulant
wore udininisiorcd, but for a continuance. It is
in this way that such extraordinary changes uro
wrought in tho condition of tho fool,le, emaciated
