And lastly, the proprietor of the factory has already more orders thaif^e can ?B this season ! These statements deserve the attention of our readers, especially of those in the towacaiKt-tln? adjacent couutry. Our soil is naturally adapted to truck farm ing^taking the climate into consider ation^as much so as that of Columbia. If it were certain that a factoryx would be piit'tip. there would be no trouble in ?t?jning the' vegetables. The farmers immediately in and around the town would willingly plant one, two^qr te? acres in vegetables if there were" ready sale for them-and our gardens-show Irow tliey can be grown here.- " The factory would be a direct and immediate help to every one of t?-^aa<?a: ?air. .profit to the owners seems eestaiu.

A. reporter ibis j ;m^RTr^fv?8?ied the* factory and talk-*/ -ed'w?th ^enterprising projects*: ,?ia5e??y?erBation with the propr?e tofMh? reporter learned that he was in<f?c^fo start tliis enterprise, as a coihseqaence of a successful experi? ment made:' by him ki this city on a srrtaft scale -last Sa mme r. Ile said that last season he put np several thoTrsand cans of tomatoes and other vegetables and fm ks aud found ready and profitable-saio -for the tn in Colum? bia Besides bemg' a -financial suc? cess, tfie^ process of canning was eOjUallv so, as the product was of a s^^or'^a??y'and not a single eau was^seported spoiled. Tbe fact is tije good? were of such quality that they commanded easy sale and a greatly larger'number of cans could have been readily disposed of io advantage. 'Tbe-^flritr? canntng.wiil.be com? menced about July 1st, and the fac? tory after that date will be kept busy in doings ^this part of the work and prepari^l Mie^goods for shipment. A lot of asparagus has already 4>ee?- put np^ specialty rwiU be -made o&to matoes, but Air. Turner proposes also to can all the peaches, blackberries and.other fruits that he eau secure. He has under cultivation 25 acres in tomatoes, and if this crop continues as promising as at present, the sup? ply in this particular will be immense. ?fhe proprietor of this new indus? try' proposes to put all bi* goods un the market here and hopes that Co? lumbia merchants will encourage this bit^fjiome: enterprise. If, however, he*eaj?Rol dispose of his output herc he states that he already has oilers from Baltimore for more ?roods than he can put up Ile says he guaran? tees every caa of his goods and there is no reason why they should not re? ceive the preference at the hands of our merchants. Judge Aldrich and the News? papers. In his charge to the Grand Jury at AhrBeVi'.le, Judge Aldrich said : There wassene subject he desired to com? mend upon for their benefit. He thotight there was a great deal of un? necessary, .criticism by newspapers up^wha'rffej called the failure of justice. This criticism arose from one Sided statements, and was de? rogatory in forming public (?pinion j ai?^pre judging a case. Every man, j ito matter with what crime he was j charged, had the right t<> an impartial ! trial before twelve jurymen of his j couutry. The jury w?*re the judges j of thc fact*, and knowing the witness j es awi possibly being acquainted with j outside circumstances, rendered their ! decision accordingly: If it was not in accord with the opinion formed previously hy the newspapers, ! another cry would be heard against I the ability of o::r Courts to do justice. ! This tended to unsettle fixed priuci- ? pies and was entirely unnecessary. \ In the present state of affairs, men j guilty of rape were unceremoniously | hiing up to thc first tree, lt was not j law, b?t neverthelens, there was an excuse for it in the minds of those ; who were husbands, fathers and brothers. There was less violation j of the, Jaw m this Slate and in the ! Southern States than in any other : p-wt i f the Union. We have here no j liots, no wholesale buming of houses in which men are killed by the fifties, sand our papers should be move cau? sons how they slander the State. These things were brought to the Latteution of the Grand Jury that they might not be influenced by the ignor? ant criticism of the newspapers., ? "Commenting upon th^^BK?rc^fhej Abbeville Messenger says ;:?f . "No man or paper, w.evtaket!ifcy has a right to prejudge a caseg. bflSfit is; the prerogative especi?|yi?f a news? paper to report facts, and it will take more than the dictum of a Judge on the bench to put a stop to it. It is, their right, yea more, it is their duty to criticise whatever strikes them as being wrong even if it is perpetrated in a Court of justice. J udge Aldrich, himself has laid down the gape.when; he attempts to account for^hat] the, newspapers call unjust verdicts -by saying that probably ? sorheihing outside of the Court roorn^has brought about this decision. Jt was <mr irn^ pression that jurors were sworn to try cases only on the facts as brought out before them at the trial, but if tiiey are to be influenced by some-^ i\w\g unknown to the public., wei think there is greater cause* .rfor alarm. We do not believe loss/ iss characteristic of our juries, bufc that they find their verdicts only on the facts presented to them. [ "We believe Judge Aldrich is I right when he says that newspapers should be cautious how they publish slanders on the State, but at the same time when anything unworthy of the State happens in our midst, surely he would not wish these same papers to keep silence and thus in manner at least approve of it. The public condemnation of such things is the only way to brine r about that state of affairs which will prevent them, and this is not only the right but the duty of newspapers." National Temperaau&SocSety. The twenty-second annual meeting of the .National Temperance Society and Publication House was held at 58 Reade Street, New York, Tuesday afternoon, May 10, Rev. Dr. Theodore I*. Cuyler, Pres\le?t^ m th?^chair. Mr. J. M. Ste ns, Corresponding Secretary, submitted the- annual; re? port, from which we find that the past year has been the most impor? tant and prosperous in the "history of the Society. More literatura lias been printed and circulated, and the receipts of the publication department haye been greater, than in any former year of its existence. One hundred and twenty two new publications have been issued, of which fifteen are bound books, fourteen are pamphlets, and the remainder tracts, lesson leaves, and other publications. Three j" thousand and fifty six pages have been stereotyped during the past year. The full catalogued lisfc-ofeihe publications of the Society now num? bers 1,593. 37,453,950 pages of books, tracts, and papers have been printed the past year, making 711, 417,427 pages since the organization of the Society. Eleven new books have been issued especially adapted for sunday school libraries, and 397, 631 volumes have been published. Over 100,000 copies of the Youth's Teifi^Tjg^^^^iji&r^ haye beeu pub Hshed everv rmonth the past. year.

AMMffi?i A FATAL MISTAKE. .f. ?HB Cleveland (Oh\&)Pre$s, ??rFebruary 23d, 1883, pub i?hed au account of a fatal su^ical operation which caused a great commotion among med? ici men throughout the whole J CQuntry, Dr. Thayer, the most eminent surgeon in Cleveland, pronc^incing it scandalous. It : appears that a Mrs. King had . leen suffering for many years from some disease of the stom? ach, which "had. resisted the treatment of ?il the ^physicians in attendance. The disease coimuenced with a slight de 1 ifeige?t?t of the digestion, ?mw??$!m appef?t?" fplt?Wed By a peculiar ^describable dis? tress in the stomach, a.feeling, that has been described as- a faint "all gone" sensation, a sticky slime , collecting about the" teeth, causing a disagree? able taste; This sensation was not removed by food, but, on the contrary, it was increased. ; After a while the hands and feet becam? cold and sticky a cold respiration. : There was a constant tired and lan? guid feeling. Then followed a ( ?rjeadful nervousness, : with gloomy forebodings. Finally the patient was unable to re? tain any food whatever, and there was constant pain in the abdomen. - All prescribed rem? edies failing to give relief, a consultation was held, when it was decided that the patient had a cancer in the stomach, and in order to save the patient's life an operation was justifi? able. Accordingly, on the 22d of February, 1683, the opera? tion was performed by J)r) Vance in the presencex>f Dr. Tuckerman, Dr. Perrier, Dr. Arms, Dr. Gordon, Dr. Capner, and Dr. HaHiwellof the Police Board. The operation consist? ed ia - laying open:; the cavity of the abdomen and exposing the stomach and bowels. When this had been done an examin? ation of the organs was made, but to the horror and dismay of the doctors there was. no cancer to be found r? The pa? tient did not have "a cancer. When too late the medical men discovered that they had made a terrible mistake; but they sewed ibe parts-, together and dressed the wound that they had made, but the poor woman ;santf rora exhaustion and died in a few hours: . How sad it must be for the husband of this poor woman ta know that his wife died from the effects of a surgical operation that ought never to have been performed If this woman had taken the proper remedy for Dyspepsia and Nervous Prostration (for this was what the disease really was), she would have been liv? ing to-day.

Granite in the Waxhaws. The Lancaster Review says that Messrs; Wright Bros , contractors on the G. C. & N. Railroad, who arc now grading the road through Waxbaw township, in Lancaster County, have made the discovery that on at least two plantations in that township through which the road passes the fioest kind of granite can bc obtained in almost un? limited quantities. The owner of one of these plantations ha6 already received several offers for his place, but refuses to sell. The Yorkville Enquirer, in glowing terms, nominates Col. A. Coward for President of thc South Carolina College. We kuow Col. Coward to be capable and a most admirable disciplinarian, and if elected would reflect credit upon the institution. Gold Mining in South Carolina. In a letter to thc Chattanooga Trafas mun. under date of May 2o, Geu lt. li Hem phill, of Abbeville, writes as follows ; 'A company fr.) m Illinois IR developing a gold mine near tho Savan? nah Uiver, in Abbeville County.

I cannot find words to express ray confidence in the Glenn Springs water, as a remedy for the Liver, when functionally deranged.
