From a private letter to a. lady in town we learn the melancholy news of the j suicide of the liev.Jas. Spratt "White,/ of liock Hill Presbyterian Church, on! Wednesday night. Mr. White hadj been sick for some time previous, but; had recovered. He had been sleeping little or none for a week or ten davsi and his family noticed lie was growing weaker in mind and bodv, but t/ie * f public knew very little of it. lie lyad been out on Tuesday night, but one' of his -hildren brought him back./On u eunesciay morning aoout one o^iock he got up; when his wife asked him where he was iroing, lie went bisick to bed and waited until about two d'clack, when lie again got up and wetit out. His wife soon after sent his s.tm after him. lie called his father biyt no answer came, and after searching could not find him. It seems he w/cnt to the study first and left it unlocked. The neighbors were summoned and soon every available man in /the neighborhood was engaged in tlijfsearch. Shortly afier daylight some ^onc noticed that! the cover ?f the watetf tank 011 the top j of the wind mill was removed, and it | aroused suspicion. /This tank is on the top of a tower aim is about sixty feet i from the ground^ and it about ten feet | deep and was jnearly full of water. A j negro was srfjnt up and there lie was found deadf Xo one expected that he I would h^ye committed suicide, but | | such is tlie case. Mr. "White was one j most popular citizens of ilut-k ; IIilJ( and vacinity, not only as a minis- i I ter/but as a man. lie was "foremost j in/every good word and work."f The | j/entire community mourn him and j t everybody who knew him feels their loss. The stores on main street arc all draped in mourning. Mrs. "White is completely prostrated with grief. Our sympathies go out to the afflicted family i in full measure in their great loss. When Baby was ?ick, vre gave her Castoria. When she *ras a Child, she cried for Castoria. When she bocaase Miss, sh? clung to Castoria. When she had Children, she gave them Castoria. Inconvenient Offices.?There lias been some talk about the Court House with reference to the inconvenient arrangement of the imblic offices, and C? A. * some suggestions have been made that we think would facilitate the work of onr public official*, ami more especially add to the comfort and convenience of the public. It is well known to every one that the business relations between the Treasurer's and Auditors -offices are very intimate, and yet these offices arc in buildings so far apart that j the public is greatly inconvenienced, | and yet either of them transacts busiI with more people (possibly the Clerk j of Court excepted) than all the other i offices combined. As an instance of the inconvenience that occurs probably a dozen or more times every day during taxpaying time, a taxpayer goes to the Treasurer to pay his taxes and finds ' what he thinks is a mistake; lie is di! rected to no to the Auditor and have it corrected. He starts out, and after a j long hunt and making inquiry in every | office on Law Range and in '.he Court , House, he finds him. Now all this j could be obviated were the Auditor's . office where it ought to be. in the Court | House adjacent to the Treasurer's office. lint tlir> tiinir imnnvtiint rOmmrp of ;ill i r? ?o , j that should be maue is in the Treasurer's office. That official has not .! room enough to manage his office t j properly, lie should h ive a room sufficiently large to conduct his business "with safety and dispatch, and also to accomodate a reasonable number of 11 taxpayers comfortably. Any one that ~ I lias seen the crowd ?n a cold day in r 1 December standing around the Treas* | urer's window, in the Court House r; pas-age (and if there is a cold place in >! the world on a cold day it is there) \ | would say it amounted to cruelty. V?"e > have seen old white-headed inen standi ing in a cio^l shivering for an hour j- j \\ anin^, iu uiAtj, ami tiiVx r j Treasurer cani.vt help himself or them s us he has not rotfm enough to let the crowd in the ofrce. Alf this could be improved on greatly bv changing some of the offices and the attention of the County Commissioners is called to the matter. ?After diphtheria, scarlet fever, pneumonia, or any other severe illness, there is no better tonic than Hood's Sarsapavilra. ... * 7 II1C JiA lLIU) A US A SS VRED.

C., what 1 termed the Club System, dealing1 directly with the farmers through Clubs, supplying them with fertilizers at bottom prices, and discounting their paper at Banks, giviug the farmer the ready cash to do business on, thus saving them the enormous prolits paid on the old-time sy?tem. My business has steadily iu/?i-ro-*T / l;iv iiii/lflr tliii nljin. find I now have Clubs scattered throughout the State. In order to facilitate my growing business. I have found it necessary to open up a business at Columbia. S. C.. where I can readily reach every portion of the State. That I might serve mv customers, meeting their "wants on as low basis as they can buy anywhere, in company with a few solid business men. we have organized., at Columbia. S. C., the Globe Phosphate Company, with a Capital Stock of $50,000, which will soon be increased to $100,000. Our plant is located at the conjunction of railroads centering in Columbia, S. C.. giving us transportation facilities nor stir passed anywhere, uur warts wm have double trackage 011 either side., and we can handle from twenty-live to thirty-five cars without shifting; this will enable us to ship out our goods with promptness. We will be connected by rail with Southern ports, and we have direct water connections by way of old Granby on the Cengaree with the Phosphate beds which will enable us to land our rock at our works at about the same price as most of the Charleston companies pay. Situated as we arc l.'JO miles in the interior, the big saving in freights will give us a decided advantage over 4thc ports. Our machinery and works arc of the latest and mo>t improved pattern. The large experi ence of our Superintendent, vv. 1. l. Robertson, who has built one other factory?the Columbia Phosphate Company's works?warrants us in saying no Phosphate works in the country will bo better equipped for business than the Globe Phosphate Company. With brand new works, brand new goods, and having officers at its head who have bad fifteen to twenty years* experience in the fertilizer business, wc can confidently hope to win the success our efforts merit. For prices, terms, &c.: address Globe Phosphate Conipanv, Columbia. S. C.* TF TTT'rrT i>,.^. II. 11L ILil; i Up-town office: Rear office in the Commercial Bank Building, or J. Q. DAVIS, WlXXSBOKO.
