The Ridiotl National Ooo rent ion, which
iMnrtM h Philadelphia last Wedeaeday,
has ptrforaaed ita work and adjourned.
General U. 8. Grant was unanimously nooniutaJ
by acclamation for the Preaideaey,
aad Hon. Henry Wilton, of Masaaehaaetta,
for the Viee.Preeldenoy. Wo publish foil
particulars of tho proeeedtnga. The tlokot
i? a very etroog oat, hot if tho Prealdea*
tial oootoat ia between Grant and Greeley,
and there be no regular Demooratie nomination
made, wo think the latter will be
our next President. Bat, on. the other
hand, should another candidate be peebed
upon the people, that will determine the
election, and Grant will walk into a aecond
rresiaenuai lertn as easily as though ha
had tlie race to himself. Out we bops for
belter things. The united voice of the South
uigee no Baltimore nomination ; its counsel*
are entitled to weight.
Governor Oan, of this State, delivered a
very strong speech, before the Convention,*en
(toning Geo. Grant and hts administration.?
Wo will publish it next week.
The Court House Matter*
For good reasons, we withhold the comtau*
uicAt ion of the young gentlemen, lu reply to
an article of so official of Greenville County
recently appearing in this paper. Long and
strongly personal controversies, unless on
absorbing topics, are not productive of a great
deal of good. Iu this communication the
cause of the ladies is amply vindicated, in
vigorous terms, and those ladies interested,
should bestow their most bewitching smiles
upon those of their male /Viands who ran so
promptly to their rescue.
"Honor to Whom Honor la Duo."
In our last isus, we spoke of the prosperity
of the Masonic Lodge in this City, and among
other things, stated that the Lodge had, for
several years, supported one of its oldost
members. In this we were misinformed. It
has contributtd futcardt bis support for the
lost twelve months, and dons so somo three
years ago for a few months; but the fact is,
he has been cared for and supported sinoa the
war by a friend, who knew him in mors pros,
perons times. Wo make this correction in
Justice to all concerned.

the Sd Tuesday evening of each month.
In accordance with this change, the next

bers will please bear in mind, then, tbal

A Word from the Scientific American.
The abovd paper thus alludes to-the tavern
tion of Mrs. Millwec, and for the interest ol
our native genius, the journals of South Ca<
roiina abould reeord her invention in tbeii
columns:
" Pattern far Cutting Garment*?Mr*. Sarah
A . Millteee, of Greenicood, S. C.?The inven
tion consists in a pattern chart for front and
hack of human form, with sculea of figure!
and perforations, arranged for fitting plait
and full waists, loose sacquea, and barques o
all aizea. It would teem to be an inventiot
greatly calculated to economise the costs, U
ladies, of tbeir various garments, since, will
one of these charts, ibey may both cut and
readily fit, as well as make tbem."
Post Office Re-opened.
The post office formerly at Clear Spring, is
Oreenv He County, has been re-opened, and
Mr. Robert Lraooe appointed postmaster.
Error.
Last week, in reporting the names of those
arrested for violation of the internal revenue
laws, we incorrectly stated that Mr. Jerrt
Tisai.tr bad been eommitted to jail. Thii
was a mistake, as Mr. Tixslet gave bond ol
$2,000 for bis appearance at tbe next term ol
the United Statea Court.

New Flour and Grist Mill.
Ttrv. 8. J. Green is about completing
new flour and g'iet paill, at the olJ Thompson
mill place, just beyond the oily limits,
on the Spartanburg road. He also intends
to attach a cotton gin and thrasher to his
old mill, and will therefore be able to accommodate
the pnhlie in several ways.
These improvements will require en expenditure
of near $6,000.

Philadelphia, June 6.
The rote for Grant was unanimous. In
casting the rotes of delegations, each chair*
man ui.de a little speech, which was received
with great good humor. Tho following is not
among tho most extravagant: Popham, of
Virginia, said her Republican people were
marching forward under bar banner, Sic .Sent'
pcr Tyrannit; intends next autumn to pnt her
armed heel upon the head of the Democratic
party. The gods are just, and Virgin!* must
and will be redeemed. After the burly*burly
subsided, a motion was made to suspend the
rules and nominate a Vice.Presldent, which
was carried. Pennsylrania nominated Wil*
Son ; Massachusetts seconded the nomination ;
Indiana nominated Colfox ; Michigan seconded
the nomination ; Mississippi alto seconded
the nomination) Lynch, colored, saying U
seemed to hire as if the spirit of Lincoln was
there, and be remembered what that patriot
eaid on one occasion, when he said it was not
a safe time to swap horses when oroeeing a
stream.
Proceedings were here interrupted by the
entrance of the platform oommittee, which reported
in effect aa follows: The resolutions
speak of the great eonraga and the duties per
formed by the Republican party In suppvea*ing
the rebellion, emancipating star**, en?
forcing the law*, developing the internal reeonreee
of the country, eneoaraging and promoting

Do Not Despair
Hundreds of cases of Scrofula, in its worst
itnges, old cases of Syphilis that hnve defied i
he skill of eminent Physicians. Rheumatics
who hare been suffering tor years, and th?
rictims of the injudicious tree of Mercnry,
have been radically cured by DR. 'PUTT'S
SARSAPARILLA AND QUEEN'S DELIGHT.
It is the most powerful alterative
and blood purifier known. It is prescribed by
many physicians in their practioe.
If you hsrs Chills, whether every other day,
every tenth day, or every two or tbroo weeks,
lake Dr. Tutt's Liver Pills, and you w,lll
chock them, otherwise they will stiok to you
all winter.

venerable Indian Chief, pointing to hU thin
and bleached loeka. Thousands of men and
women in civilised society, much youuger than
the old Sagamore, are like bim, " withered at
the top," simply because they have neglected
to nse the means of preserving and beautifying
the hair which science has placed at their
disposal. K Lyon's Kalbairon be faithfully
applied once or twloe a day, to the fibers
and the scalp, it is just as impossible that the
hair should decay, wither, fall out or Income
harsh and fussy, as that a meadow, duly retresbed
with nightly dewa and sunlit rains,
should become arid nnd bairen of green blades.
Tbis matchless prspartion not only keeps the
hair alive and the skin of the head in a healthy
and clean condition, but actually multiplies
the filaments and imparts to thcin a lustre,
flexibility and wavy i*eauty unattainable by
any other mode ot treatment. It does not, like
the metalio and sulphurous hair dyes, dry up
the natural moisture ot the scalp, but supplies
nutrimeut to the roots of the hair and rigor to
the fibers.

x'ltifa] Condition.
It is a sad thing to past through life only
half alive. Yet there are thousands whose
habitual condttion is one 01 languor and debility.
They oomplain of no speciflo disease;
they suffer no positive pain ; but they have no
relish lor anything which affords mental or
seneuons pleasure. In nine casee out of tan
this etata of lassitude and torpor erisee from a
morbid stomach. Indigestion destroys the
energy of both mind and body. When the
waste of nature is not supplied by a due and
regular assimilation of the food, every organ
is starved, every function interrupted.
Now, what does common seose suggest under
these circumstances of depression T The
system needs musing and strengthening ; not
merely for aa boar or two. to sick afterward
into a mora pitiable condition than near (aa it
assuredly would do if an ordinary aioobolio
stimulant were resorted to,) bat radically and
permanently.
How la this desirable object to be aeponr
piisbed f The answer to this question, found*
ed on the unvarying experience of a quarter
of a century, ia easily gives. Jnfuae new
vigor into tbe digestive organs by a course of
Ilostettar's 8 torn a eh Bitters. De aot waste
time by administering temporary remedies,
but wake tbe system up by recuperating tbe
fountain head of physical strength and energy,
tbe great organ upon whteh all tbe otber organs
depend for their nurture end support.
By the time that a doaen doses of tbs great
vegetable tonie and lavigorant have boss
taken, tbe feeble frame of tbe dyspeptic will
begin to feel its benign Influenoe. Appetite
will be ereated, and with appetite tbe capacity
bo digest what it craves. Persevere until the
cure Is complete?until beatbful blood. It ts
be tbe materiel of floeh and mneele, and bona
