The Carolina Spartan &av$: %4An 'old time farmer/ iu the Xw>s and Courierj suggests JoDnaon Hagood, of am) John Bratton. of Fair r field, as a strong team to head the race for State officers next year. The old ^ farmer is exactly right. There is no foolishness about these two oil Con* federate Generals. They are honest, lair men who cannot be entangled by the temptations of practical politics. Mauove, who has opened the campaign in Virginia, tells his hearers that the negro is a Republican by instinct and a protectionist by nature. The ?.icat iarnoraut nesrro mav be blinded t- by the shrewdness and sophistry of men of Malione's type, bnt we don't beliere the intelligent laborers of the North will be beguiled by the dogma of the protectionists much longer. It takes time to educate the masses of the people on such great subjects as the tariff. They are beginning to open their eyes, however, and we beginning to see tbe fallacy of the argument that Kproiecnuu pruuxu unui. Wilkie Coluns, the famous novelist, is dead.

In North"Carolina, Georgia and all the Western State?, from whence meal 3e generally bought, a bushel is estimated to weigh ooly 46 pounds, while in Sooth Carolina the statutory weightis*4S pounds. Meal is quoted at 46 pounds to the bushel in all commercial price lists, and ia sold to the retaiieraon that basis.

There is nothing wrosg about it, and tbe custom has grown out of the necessities of tbe case, ft would not do for one place to quote 46 pounds for a bashel and another place quote 48* pounds.

The Sentliaewt TJitar Eagliuk ?o the Tariff. A special to the News and Courier from Washington announced that Senator Bntler bad. returned from his trip to New England, and iu an interview, the South Carolina Senator says that there are many indications which tend to show that tiefenbiraent of that section is changiag ttaOLtariff to antitariff. Every witness before the select committee of the Senate at its recent session in Boston, as to iron and glasjs manufactures, advocated frea trade iutarfoarsct with Caiiada "as indispensable fo the prosperity^ of those claspe? of manufactories in New England." It is worth not*ng, too, mat roe wonderful development of the South in manufacturing and- her inexhaustible deposit?ofcoal andiron has played an important part.' in making them change their opinion. "Some witnesses went so far as to say that, without free coal and iron ore, and. a greatly reduced rate ou pig iron, the iron manufacturers of New England must porisb; that the competition of Pennsylvania, Maryland and the South, ? i r--i~_r? 1 c.tU wutrc iw;iutics wvic. j\a^ii^u uvcm iuw raw materia), was rninona and mast drive them oat of existence, and this was true also of glAss factories." A large majority of witnesses urged the removal ot duty Sn : lumber in the interest of I?ew England, though they declared themselVee protectionists in everything that would help New England. So it seem9 they favor free trade when their oicn interest is advanced by it.

This is because they are purely vegetable, and entirely free from calomel or any other dangerous drug. In all cases, therefore, whether the patient Via nM or rnnn7. thev mav be confi dently administered. In the Southern and Western States, where derangements of the liver are so general, Ayer's Pills have proved an inestimable blessing. D. W. Baine, New Berne, N. C., writes: " I suffered a long time with stomach and liver troubles. I tried various remedies, but received no benefit until I commenced taking Ayer's Pills. These pills benefited me at once. I took them reeularlv for a few months, and my health was completely restored." Throughout New England, next to lung diseases, Stomach and Bowel Complaints are the most prevalent. Dyspepsia and Constipation are almost universal. a nrftrtir.al chemist, of iW-A OXACSV'UV* f M ?? ? Roxbury, Mass., who was long troubled with Dyspepsia, writes: "A friend induced me to tryAyer's Pills, and, after taking one box without mucli benefit, I was disposed tp quit them; but he urged perseverancf, and, before I had finished the second box, I began to experience relief. I continued taking them, at intervals, until I had used eleven boxes. Suffice it to say, that I am now- a well man, and grateful to your chemistry, which outstrips mine." The head and stomach are always in sympathy ; hence the cause of most of those distressing headaches, to which so many, especially women, are subject. Mrs. Harriet A. Marble, of Poughkeep"v~ v +Viot- vaam slip WAS DiC| JL1< X 1} Vt libCO VilAW *V* ^ WW ^ ? a martyr to headache, and never found anything to give her more than temporary relief, until she began taking Ayer's Pills, since which she has been in the enjoyment of perfect health.
