It is said that a phosphate trust is !( the next thing in contemplation. Prices * will increase. Farmers had better look to home production. The swindlers, who advertise to sell ( a large amount of counterfeit money ] for a small sum, are finding South , ; Carolina pastures refreshingly green. ??- A Lancaster lamb was taken in by < them a day or more ago. I monument fund is in a ' desperate way. Only $7,000 has been subscribed, and no.v the faithful are trying to touch the patriotic heart by raffling a crazy quilt for the benefit of the fand. To what straits have they come! The termination of the unfounded contest for Mr. Carlisle's seat by Mr. Thocbe,- now leaves Congress free to go into the prompt discharge of its chief duty. Let them press forward in the work of tax redaction and tariff reform. A seveke blow to the Blair bill was f. * the opinion of ex-Justice Strong of fho Snnrpmft Oonrt before the Colum bia College JLaw Class. In his opinion the biil is unconstitutional, and he believes this to be the opinion of the present members of the bench. Geo. W. Childs says he wouldn't have it under any circumstances. We are not surprised it this. A newspaper man never wants to be President. The Republicans still, have Blaine and Sherman to fall back on, and Barkis is willin'in both cases. Senator Chandler has introduced, a bill inquiring into naval contracts since March 4, 1SS5. lie wanted information from that time, but he got more than he wanted. He will get information from 1SS0. Mr. Chandler had something to do with the navy in ISfifL Some Republicans of Philadelphia want to nominate the Philadelphia philanthropist, Geo. W. Childs, as a Republican candidate for the Presidency. Mr. Childs is reputed to hav# a big "bar'V" but it will take a bigger oae than the Republican party can get up to defeat Grover Cleveland. The people of "Washington have been recently enjoying the privilege j of having a genuine South Carolina ! convention in their midst. That i?, a j WW VtiJUVU. A H V \/UUiA liivwj two sets of delegates, and everybody W talking and fighting at the same time is decidedly suggestive of a South m Carolina Republican convention. The schooling of Lonise Michel, the -high priestess ot revolutionary France, while inciting Anarchists to action, illustrates the fact that those who ex cite the angry passions of the multij tude are often the first to sutler by them. The case of Dr. Gniilotin, the inventor and victim of his own machine?the guillotine?will not lack parallels so longas violence is preached as a panacea for public grievances. ? -o- o? Teh Blair bili is fair to look upon indeed. But when it is taken into consideration the fact that its passage would tend to make us lose the quality of self-reliance, a quality which education cannot make up for; that we can work out our own salvation in the matter and be more intelligent; that its features gives us a form of paternal government repugnant to American ideas, then it is.not the good thing it seemed to be. "To punish dealing in futures in agricultural products" is the title of a bill introduced in Congress. The bill makes it uulawful for one or more persons in anv.State or Territory to contract with any person for the future delivery of cotton, grain, pork, lard, or any animal or other agricultural product when such contract does not, in good faith, contemplate the actual delivery of the article embraced in the contract. Every violation of the provisions of the law is to be punishable by a fine not exceeding $1,000. The New York Star, referring to the cry of monopolistic journals,- that Englishmen have ulterior designs to ruin us, from the fact that they advocate free trade at home and would rejoice to see it everywhere, says: Faagh! what a notion men who make such arguments must have of the sense and credulity of the voters. Men and journals who talk such stuff P1 forget the starving thousands and the idle millions deprived of all chance for subsistence by taxes that go into the pockets of the few?taxes levied upon what we eat,'drink and wear? taxes that enable men to shut up sbops and stop production, whenever they take a notion to declare larger dividends. The National Democratic Executive Committee will meet in Washington on the'22nd of February to decide upon a place of meeting for the nomi^ nating convention. Baltimore, New York, Cincinnati, St, Louis and Chicago all want it. New York seems to lead in the race. It is a matter of little importance any wav, as Cleveland is the man. It has been suggested by an exchange that there could be a j 4. :? 1,^,1.. :e great sctviujj iu cvci?uuu,v n would simply send (heir choice to the Committee by postal card. This is suggested from the fact of the almost unanimous senfiment in favor of Cleveland. A Sound Le;raJ Opinion. E. Brainbridge Munday, Esq., County Atty., Clay Co., Tex., says: "Have used Electric Bitters with most happy results. My brother also was very low with Malarial Fever and Jaundice" but was cured Intimely use of this medicine Am satisfied Electric Bitters saved his life." Mr. D. L Wilcoxson, of Horse Cave, * Ky., adds a like testimony, savins : lie positively believes he woui'd "nave died, had it not been for Electric Bitters. This great reinedv Trill w?trd off, as well as cure alLMalaria Diseases, and for all Kidney, Ldver and Stomach Disorders stands unequaled.

A bill passed the United States Sen-1 .te one day last week which ha? i:: I 'iew the refunding to the States and j rVv.T'toi ies of tlie money collected ; rom them under the* direct tax lav:' j macted in 1861. ; A.n amendment was offered but re-! ected, which provided the refunding: j >f the cotton tax coiiected under the aw* of 1862. In the first instance, $17,350,000 is j appropriated fur the purpose stated, md should the amendment ever bcjorne law. $08,000,000 additional will lave to be appropriated, making a jraud total of $85,000,000. How the Senate, in justice to all section?, could enact one and refuse Lhe o;hc-r cannot be surmised. The cotton tax collected under the Jaw of 1862 should in all fairness and wisdom be refunded to the States according to their dues, and when the bill comes to the House we trust the amendment will be insisted upon. It will be seen I that a very respectable hole will be ( dug into the surplus, bat the idea is i riffht and should be embodied in a ] law. i Protectionist journals urge this ( measure quite freely, but their motives . are not the purest. By cutting down J the surplus they hope to stop tariff agitation, thereby keeping up the taxes < upon the people. The government can 1 make reparation for the imposition of the direct tax by refunding it; but such an act will not relieve it of its imp?ra- ' tivc duty to cut down the iniquitous j and burdensome tariff and thus help 1 * i to prevent in future any apprehensions j caused by trie accumulation of a large < and dangerous surplus. [! Ue<iuieseat in Pace I ! Capt. B. It. Tillman has written his farewell address to the people of the State so far as the farmers' movement is-, concerned. lie says he wiil no lrtnorfi- agitate those measures for * O'- o % which he has been contending for the last three years. His parting shot was replete with ali the bitterness wilich has characterized him iu all his public utterances. It is well for the farmers and the State as a whole that Capt. Tillman has decided to stop his method of warfare for the farmers. No movement conducted as this one was, by its acknowledged leader, can ever be successful. Capt. Tillman seldom had a pleasant word for any of the ruling authorities of the State or any class of people who opposed his views. He has characterized the government, acknowledged to be economical and honest, as a corrupt ring, with only one object in view?"patting money in tbeir purses." He has charged members of the Legislature with the crime of bribe-taking. Lawyers, and indeed everybody else not in the "movemeut," were emissaries of the devil or the very incarnation of wickedness itself. Under these circumstances it is not strange that he met with violent opposition on the partef those so maligned. Many persons favorable to the movement, or at least indifferent, were driven to oppose it by the malignant and unjust criticisms of its leader. "We say {hen that it is wen tiiar trie man who did more to stir up strife among classes of our citizens than anybody else is publicly dead, and we trust that whoever shall lead the agricultural interests of the State in future shall be a man who by prudence and wisdom will commend its desires to citizens of all classes and conditions. Value of Savings Associations. Our subscriptions in tov/n assure the organization of the Fairfield Savings and Loan Association. The capital stock is made one thousand shares in order to accomodate our friends in the county. The News and Herald will be glad to answer any inquires m<iv kr> hv Iff <">! Ot.hflT* >? AUU> VV utuuv v; ?vv%v v* - ~ ? wise in regard to the workings of 'the Association; any information will be cheerfully given to the best of our ability. We want all who desire it, 111 the country, to come in with us. It will benefit all who may be disposed to invest small sums o.f money. As suggested by o?;e of the most enterprising and far-sighted citizens of the county, if we can get this Association to sufficient, proportions, we can soon rid ourselves of foreign land loan companies and their exorbitant rates of interest. So we want ail men in the county who so desire to come in and share the benefits. In this connection an editorial clipping from the Register explains how it works very j,-. sain y Another illustration can be given. A young man having a salary of six hundred dollars, finds that he can live on five hundred, and has one hundred to spare. He may spend this in liquor and cigars, which, granting that they may afford him pleasure, leave him, after they are consumed, with nothing to show fur his money. Or he may invest in furniture and works of art, which will continue to afford hirn ' pleasure and comfort, but do not add anything more to his wealth than the first case, if, indeed, they do not de- : teriorate in value. Lastly he may : invest the money in some productive ; business, or put it into a loan associa- J tion, in which case it adds a certain : profit to itself each year. Assuming the rate of interest to be seven per 1 cent., not compounded, the difference to the individual in accumulated ' wealth would be: In the first case. $ 00 00 In the second case 1,000 00 . In lhe third case 1,315 00 The difference would be still greater i if interest is compounded. This com- ' parisoB tally demonstrates the advantage to the individual and the community of some scheme bv which small ; savings of the poorer classes may be united into one aggregate and thrown J into producfive business. ! ? ?, ? ??. i Jim Baker and Sam Arthur Get Their Money.

What is this Disease iaat is Coming Upon Us ? Like a thief at night it steals in upon us uiav :u*es. The patients have about the i chest and si das; and sometimes in the back. They feel dull ; and sleepy; the mouth has a < bad taste, especially in the morning. A sort of sticky slime ' collects about the teeth. Th<appetite is poor. There is a feeling like a heavy load on the stomach; some t: mes a faint, all gone sens.':-*.3ii at the pit of the stomach v. inch food does not satisfy. The eyes are sunken, the hands and feet become cold and claiimi}*. After a while a cough sets in, at first dry, but^ after a few months it is attended with a greenish-colored expectoration. The patient feels tired all the while, and sleep does not seem to afford any rest. After a time he becomes nervous, irritable and gloomy, and has evil forebodings. Then is a giddiness, a sort of whirling sensation in the head when rising up suddenly. The bowels become costive; the skin is dry and hot at times; the blood becomes thick and stagnant; the whites of the eyes become tinged "with yellow; the mine is scanty and high colored, de positing a sediment after standing. There is frequently a spitting up of the food, sometimes with a sour taste and sometimes with a sweetish taste; this is frequently attended with palpitation of the heart; the vision becomes impaired, with spots before the eyes; there is a feeling of great prostration and weakness. All of these symptoms are in turn present. It is thought that nearly one-third of our population has this disease in some c *j- . .3 C oi its varieu 101111s. It has been found that physicians have mistaken the cause of this disease.- Some have treated it for a liver complaint, others for kidney disease, etc., etc., but none of these kinds of treatment have been attended with success; for it is really constipation and dyspepsia. It is also found'that Shaker Extract of Roots, or Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup, when properly prepared will remove this disease in all its stages. Care must be taken, however, .1 , T to secure the genuine article. IT WILL SELL BETTER THAN COTTON. Mr. John C. Hemptinstall, of Chulafumee, Cleburn Co., Ala., writes: "My wife has been so much benefited by Shaker Extract of Soots or Seigel's Syrup that she says she would rather be without part of her food than without the' medicine. It has done her more good than the doctors and all other medicines put together. I would ride twenty miles to get it into the Lands of any sufferer if lie can get it in no other way. I believe it will soon sell in this State better than cotton. TESTIMONY FROM TEXAS. Mrs. S.E. Barton, of Varner, ley Co., Mo., writes that had been long afflicted with . .>epsia and disease of the :.-iry organs and was cured Shaker Extract of Roots, v. J. J. McGuire, merchant, 1 the same place, who sold Irs. Barton the medicine, says ne has sold it for four ye'ars and never knew it to fail.
