PoMIe mTcetis*W Tax Payers. We bare been requested to announce that, a public meeting of tie-Tax-j-ayer* of' Sumter County a ili be held at the Court House, on the first Mondsy (sales-day) in May next, fur the purpose of taking into consideration tbe pr?tent ruinous /system of taxation and of chooiing delegates te a Stn*e Convention of tax-payers, to be held at Columbia, on the socond Tuesday in May next. ? ^a? a ka extract from tbe letter of a prominent member of the Washington bar, published in the Charleston AeiM of recent date says that ?he Supreme Co art cf the United Stetes has not affirmed the validity of obligations given for :be purchase of eleve property. Ice Cream Fes Urals. We are pleased to state that the ladies of the Baptist Church of Sumter, propose a number of Ice Cream Festivals, to Le given in aid of their Church, at the Hah* over M. FORSTEXBUSG'S Store. Tte first of these (oe dc?bt to be) pleasant occasions, will occur thia (Wednesday) after? noon, beginning at 4 and dosing at .9 o'clock, end on each subsequent Wednesday, between the same bonrs, they will bu continued until further notice. We trust thea? good Indies maybe liber? ally patronized in their work of sea! in behalf of the Church. Connecticut Election. Latent telegrams yesterday, indicate the elec? tion of Eagli/b (Democrr.t) Governor, and two Congressman, which is a gain of one. Republi? can gains in New Haven county. Exteoalon of time for Payment of Taxes We learn from the Yorkville Enquirer of the 50th alt., that the time within which taxes may be paid wtobeul rnetrrring the SO per cent, penal? ty, in that county, bas been extended to the 12th of April. We hope that Sumter aili be em? braced io this privilege. Many of our people have not paid their taxes, simply and purely because of their inability to do so, and ii* the time be extended, as ie York, a number of them will no doubt be enabled to c scape the 20tb per cent, additional, 'io make tt<?3 addition io already an enormous tax, which is unpaid, abso? lutely because of inability, is ?imply heaping up outrage upon outrage and oppression upon op? pression.

It is a very significant faet, tbat notwithstand? ing the long period of years tbat tbe ."Pain Killer" has been before the world, it bas never lost one whit of its popularity, but, on the con? trary, the call for it bas steadily increased from irs first discovery, and at no previous time bas the demand for it boen so great, or the quantity made been so large, as it is to day. Another significant fact is, that nowhere bas the Pain Killer ever been in bigber repute, or j been more ger.emlly used by families and indi? viduals, than it has been here at home, where it was first discovered and ir doced.
