THE ADVERTISER. Terms, 83,00 per Annum. Cat Off in the Budding of Youth. A deep and. bitter affliction has visited the hearts and home ; of. those much-be loved, members of our community, Mr. and Mrs. LEWIS JOKES. Their young estchild, a lovely girl of sixteen sum mers, ".departed this life, at Spartan burg-while there at school-on' Tuesday, the 16th inst The lamented MAST ELIZA JOKES waa beautiful and graceful in per son, gifted in intellect, pious and gentle in disposition. Her death bed waa a . scene of triomphant faith, holy hope, sublime resignation. And thus one more of the loved ones of earth is. gathered to the glory of the Only Begotten whose abode is in tho bosom of the Father. We know full well that all Edgefield joins ns in deepest sympathy for this bereaved and weeping family. Fire. At about sundown on Wednesday of last week,, our town was startled by an alarm of. fire, and it was soon discovered that the stable and barn of lira. Mary Tillman was being consumed. The build ing could not be saved, but fortunately the flames did not reach the dwelling house. Mrs. Tillman's loss is about $300. She desires us to return hoi kindest thanks to the many friends, while and black, who hurried to her assistance on this unfortunate occasion. There is but little doubt that the fire proceeded from tho torch of the incendiary. - '- -m ? ?? . ?-?-? The Sibleys and Their Fertilizers. This week J. Sibley & Sons send us a list of the Fertilizers sold by them. The planting community will do well to pay particular attention to this dist. It is for tunate that planters and farmers can now select such Corn and Cotton Stimulants for their fields as the experience of years has demonstrated to be genuine and worthy of confidence. Prominent among such are the Fertilizers sold by the Sib - leys, of Augusta. Of Sweeping Popularity. Of sweeping popularity is the new American Sewing Machine. We speak of it as new, because it is new in these parts. Mr. Oscar Cheatham is the Agent hereabouts. Read his card in another column. He invites all the ladies to call at his Store and inspect the American. It performs great wonders, and is the theme of universal admiration. Let Vs Uphold Our Own. We would speak a word in behalt of the admirable agricultural journal which does so much honor to our State. We mean the Rural Carolinian, published monthly in Charleston. The Rural Car olinian is, in all respects, equal to any agricultural journal published in this country, with the further claim u]K>n us that it belongs to South Carolina, is con ducted by South Carolinians, and aim's particularly to improve and develop the agriculture of South Carolina. The Ru ral Carolinian begins the new year splendidly. Tho January number, ly ing before us, is in itself a noble hand book of Agricultural and Horticultural art. Let us then uphold the Bural Caro linian bravely. Two Dollars a year, in ad vance. Address Walker, Evans ? Cogs well, Charleston. Mopes' Superphosphate. This old and well tried fertilizer, is still in the market, at a reasonable price. Having been constantly used in all parts of the country since 1852, when it was first introduced, this is the twentieth year of its most successful career ; and notwithstanding the many competing fertilizers that have since been brought into use, Mapes' still maintains its popu larity, and is the favorite of many of our best planters. Its great recommenda tions are that no adulterating mr.:< rial is used in ifc? manufacture, and its constitu ents are such as to produce quick action and permanent improvement to the soil. The Agents for this State are Messrs. Kinsman ?fc Howell, of Charleston, gen tlemen well known to our planting com munity, for their energy, promptness and strict i ntegrity in all business mat ters. See their advertisement in another column. What a Railroad Does for an Inland Town. The Abbeville Medium, of the 17thsays: Our cotton trade for the last week has boen very brisk-buying and selling are constantly going cn. The number of bales of cotton shipped by the 6. & C. Railroad from the 8th to the 15th inst., inclusive, were four hundred and forty -an average of more than seventy-three bales per dw. The staple is selling at a good price,*and the faces of our farmers are made brighter by it. ?S" We learn from the Abbeville (S. C.) Medium- that that town was visited on the 12th inst., by Mr. Wallace, Internal Revenue officer, and a large lot of tobac- j co taken from the merchants of the place. The tobacco was improperly stamped, and was taken on that account The j amount "lifted" by Mr. Wallace is esti- J mated as being from three to four hun- j dred dollars worth. j Mr. James Gordon Bennett, Jr. J ft the New York Horald, is mentioned j as the successor of Jas. Fisk, Jr., as col- j " onel of the 9th regiment. "There was a frog who lived in a spring; He caught such a cold that he could not sing." Poor, unfortunate Batrachian ! In what asad plight he must have beeu. And yet his misfortune was one that often b? lais singers. Many a once tuneful voice among those who belong to the "genus homo" is utterly spoiled by "cold m the head,"" or on the lung?, or both combined. For the above mentioned "croaker" we are not aware that any remedy was ever devised; but we rejoice to know that all human singers may keep their heads clear and their throats in tune by a time ly use of Dr. Sago's Catarrh Remedy, and Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov ery, both of which aro sold by druggist*. A STABIL INSTITUTION.-Just at the period when all stable-men were com plaining that the horse-ointments of thc day were unstable remedies, the Mrs TANu LINIMENT made its entree in Mis souri, without any nourish of trumpets, and within one year, became the favorite embrocation for the external distempers and injuries of horses and cattie in all the Western and Southern States. From that time to this, it has never had a rival in the estimation of accomplished horse men ; nor is its household reputation as acure for rheumatism, neuralgia, sore nipples and caked breasts, tumors, sore throat, mumps, ear-ache, tooth ache, bruises, burns, wounds and sprains, a whit behind its celebrity as a hoi-se Lini ment The Mothers of America know its value, and apply it promptly to the external injuries ot the " rising genera tion," and in tact there is not a city or township in tho United States where the MUSTANG LINIMENT is not regarded by both sexes and every class, as a blessing o the community. - t -^.^?^ FROM DAK TO BEERSHEBA.-From Charleston to Dahlonega, from the sea board to the mountains, can be seen a marked improvement in the style of buildings in the last five years.* Vil lages and farm houses all present a ?moro elegant and comfortable appearance. The reason is well known, it is because in that period the whole country has learned to patronize that celebrated manufacturer of Doors, Sashes and Blinds, Mr. P. P. To AXE, Charleston, S. C.

I have used commercial fertilizers for several years, and this vcar, with other kinds, used the Wando, giving it, Ithink a lair trial. In my opinion, the Wando gave more remunerative results than uny other kind used by me. L. SALTER. EDGEF?ELD, C. H., S,.C., Jam. 1,1872. This is to certify that ! have used thc Wando Guano for two years with the happiest result-quantity applied 2001bs., with 15 Bushels Cotton. Seed per acre with this manuring I increased the yield of heed Cotton per acre about six hun dred pounds or more. I may add that I made a bale per acre on twenty acres with above manuring. W. A. SANDERS. EDGEF?ELD, S. C., Dec. 30th, 1871. This year I planted eighty-five acres in Cotton j poor land, and used three tons of thc W ando Guano. I made, packed and sold forty-eight bales, weighing 4U0 pounds. Thc three tons wore applied to 45 acres, which produced 31 bales For ty acres, better land, was unmanurcd, and the result was oniy 17 bales. The cheapness, and the intrinsic worth of the Wando, places it upon a monicd valua tion. E. ll. YOUNGBLOOD. EDGEF?ELD, S. C., Jan. 10th, 1372. I have usod the Wando Fertilizer for two years, and willingly testify as to its merits. Taking into consideration its cost, it paid me better, as an investment, than Peruvian Guano, and is equal, if not superior, to any fertilizer in tho market, of which I have any practical knowledge.
