An un usual ly large assemblage of] our citizens, of every .olaae, faith, col? or and party, were assembled at the Catholic Chureh at thia place, on Sat? urday last, to join in paying respect to tbe character and remains of Mr. THOM* AS MONAGHAN, who breathed his last the day previous. We were impressed with the idea that all distinctions and differences of sentiment, thought, action and faith, are and should be, laid aside in the preBonoo of the Qreat King of Terrors-when we oome to surround the grave. A noticeable ieaiure was the large number of oolored people in attendance. Mr. MONAGHAN was among the most upright, quiet, retiring aud inoffensive of our citizens, and hence was respeoted by all clauses. His onergy and industry and devotion to his business, were marked, and these yielded for him an honest livelihood for his family during all the times of hardship and trial through whioh the country has,passed. Tho sympathies of the entire commu? nity aro with his afflicted family. YORK VILLE . FB1HALB COLLEGE. Kev. Jas. Douglas, who is well known and much beloved by many in this section, is in oharge of this institution, tho advertisement of whioh, as-it appears on another column, particular attention is directed to. SIX E1BS FKOia ONS STALK. Our young friend, SAMUEL M. T?OMPSON, (Booz) son of Co). JESSE THOMPSON, brought us, the other day, six large and well filled ears of corn, the product of a single stalk that grew in "his patch." Unusually prolific, and a smart and industrious boy, who merits encouragement. THE BANKRUPT ACT. Tho bankrupt not bas been changed by Congress, by the adoption of the following amendment : "Be it enacted by the Senate, and Houso of Represen, tatives of the United States of Amerioa, in Congress assembled, That the pro? visions of tho second clause of the thirty third section of an Act to estab? lish a unilbm system of Bankruptcy throughout the United States, as amend? ed by the first section of an act in amendment thereof, shall not apply to those debts from which the bankrupt seeks a discharge, whioh were con* traded prior to the 1st of January, 18G9." Previous to this amendment, no per? son whose estate would not pay fifty per oent. of his indebtedness, exclusivo of his debts os surety, could, without the consent of a majority of his creditors, avail himself of the bankrupt aot. The effect of this amendment is to make the fifty per cent, .olause apply only to debts contracted after the 1st of January, 1860. Under the law as it now stands, any person can apply for a release from all his old debts, whether his estate pays anything or not. He is only required to pay, fifty per cent, of such of his individual debts as were contracted sub? sequent to January 1st, 1869. WHAT DOES IT HEAN f Mr. Editor :-My attention has been called to a paragraph, conspicuously pub* lished in the editorial column of the last issue of tho Sumter News. I endoso it. Please print it in the same type. As an endorsement of the Radicals, it hos excited a curious suspicion, ari an ex? planation is respectfully asked of the proprietors of tho News by a sound and consistent *> DEMOCRAT. [From the Sumter New?.] WHAT THE COUNTRY OWES TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. We find the followiog paragraph in the Daily Republican. We print the noticeable pan in capitals : "At the olose of the late war THE TOTAL INDEBTED** ESS OP THE UNITED STATE8 WAS ABOUT THREE THOU8AND THREE HUN* DRED MILLION DOLLARS. Since I then we have paid nine hundred million I dollars, and reduoed the burden of taxa? tion one hundred and fifty million dol I lars per annum.

Would they, could they, be deceived by any such showing or would they not say truly that my paper waa a genuine Radical-Scott- Moses possum in a Democratic skin ? And wouldn't they say, "oom*out of that skin." QUESTION. LAT EVGBYBODY COME. Judge Carpenter, Gena. Butler and Kershaw will address the people- of Spartanbarg, on Thursday the 14th inst.

Diseases that progress rapidly to a crisis are not the only ones to be dreaded. Canker or dry rot does not blast a tree as suddenly as a stroke of lightning, bat unless arrested, it destroys it as certainly ; and In Uko manner ehronio debility although it does nst kill with the swiftness of yollow fever, is ss lure to sap the springs ef life eventually as any aonte disease, if not chocked by invigorating medication. There ls something inexpressibly touching in the speotaole of prema? ture decay. Langoor, pallor, emaciation, dopros alon of spirits, and a distaste for exertion, are its ordinary sj mp tomi, and they should be promptly mot by tonio treatment. The best In vigoran t and axhilarant that oan ba administered in a ease of this kind il Hoslstter's Stomach Bitters. The sttmolattng prlnoiple of the preparation reuses the dormant .energies of the system, and the strengthening and regulating properties give a permanent and healthful Impulse to tho vital forces thus brought into play. The falling appe? tite is re-awakened, the proeess of digestion and assimilation are qniokened, the quality ef tba blood is improved, the secretions become more natural, ?nd every organ tba! contributes to tb? nourishment of tte body undergoes salutary change. By these Beans the repair of tbs phys* ioal structure is effected and lu health and vigor restored. ?0 ne dais of dlseases^h as the ben Ifl cent operation of ib?
