Bishop Howe in Edgefield.
According to the announcement in lust
?week's Advertiser, the Right Rev. Bish
op Howe reached our town on Friday
last, and on Sunday following, preach
ed and administered the Holy Sacrament
and the rite of Confirmation in Trinity
Church, which was crowded with a large
and deeply interested, audience. The oc
casion was an interesting one, and the
impression left by Bishop Howe is such
as will ul ways insure him open doora,
open hearts, and many willing hearers
in Edgefield. The candidates for confir
mation-all of whom communed imme
diately after-were five in number. Bish
op Howe will probably visit Edgefield
again in June or July.

" A Masker and a Reveller X"
The lean and hungry Cassius once
taunted Mark Antony-in the days when
the latter was in the thrall of Cleopatra
with being a "masker and reveller." And
so may we say to-day-but not as a taunt
-of our young friend Prescott Devon).
He has been-lucky fellow !-to the
Mardi Gras in New Orleans, and writes
ns a letter descriptive of the gorgeous
scenes he behold. His letter isa good
one, and we are ob?iged to him for it.
A Veteran Takes the Field.
Dr. R. T. M i ms (Dr. Dick.) is going to
take charge of the Male Academy. See
his announcement, and that of the Trust
ees, in another column. Who is not glad
to hear of it? Dr. Mims has always been
more or less of a student, and-to say
nothing of English-he is perhaps as
fresh to-day in classic lore as he was thir
ty years ago. We congratulate our com
munity, and wish the Doctor most flat
tering success.
Where Is It, Senator Arnim -.
We allude to our Railroad charter-the
charter of the proposed Road from Spar
tanburg via Laurens, Ninety Six and
Edgefield, to Aiken or Augusta. The
proposition for this charter passed the
House safely someten days ago. But
what has become of it in the Senate ? We
neither hear nor read a word about it.
And hope deferred maketh the heartsick.
Where is it, Senator Arnim ? We look to
you. We trust upon you. We beg you
neither to slumber nor sleep. And, fur
ther, we beg you to remember how this
charter business, on a former occasion,
was delayed so late in tho session, that
the opportunity was given to Scott to
pocket and l?de it-which, of course, he
did. Lot him not have such another
chance, if possible.
A Bally Proceeding.
Our young friend, Mr. James Cobb, of |
the Brunson Dry Goods Establishment,
presents us with a package of superb
Smoking Tobacco-genuine old Durham.
And upon tho package is stamped a great
big Durham bali. Now why may not
this be called a bully proceeding. We
cannot resist the opportunity for a pun ;
and still we earnestly hope some one will
come in and give us the fatal blow for
our vulgarity. But that is neither -here
nor there, so Jimmie Cobb sells the To
bacco. They have an immense quantity
of it-just arrived. But rush-or it will
be gobbled up before you get there.
A New Democratic Paper.
We are very glad to place upon our
exchange list a new and promising Dem
ocratic paper-from a field where it was
much needed-the Orangeburg Times.
The Times is published by Hey ward &
Beard. J. S. Heyward, Ewq , is the edi
tor. The Times has our unfeigned good
wishes.
The Power ol Early Recollections.
Ourold friend, Horatio P. McCullough,
who has lived and flourished Tor years
past, on the Richmond line, below Au
gusta, was lately troubled with early
recollections-to the amount of two
splendid Hams. In other words, he
thought of his old home and his old
friends, and, having plenty and to spare,
he rose up and sent the Advertiser people
a couple of such Hams as they never saw
or tasted before, of his own raising and
of his own curing. Well done, thou
good and faithful old fellow !
The Jackson Wagon.
Six months ago, or such a matter, Jes
sup, the Carriage ant: Wagon Merchant
of Augusta, sold a Jackson Wagon to
our townsman, H. W. Addison, Esq.,
and since then we know of a round dozen
which have come from Jessup's into our
vicinity. Dadeed no wagon is now
considered better than Jessup's "Jack
son Wagon." Therefore cast a very at
tentive eye over Jessup's new advertise
ment in another column.
Extending His Borders Immensely.
We mean Dr. Sanders. He has a new
advertisement this week which it is de
lightful to read. His lists are ravishing;
his prices are fairer than the fairest ; and
he himself is a model of the suavitcr in
modo. The Sanders Establishment is
extending its borders tremendously-as
you will see by referenco to the new ad
vertisement.
?Sflhe Canton (Miss.) Mail says:
" Of the Pittard family, in the Beattie'*
Bluff neighborhood, in this county, oui
of nine members who were living on
Christmas day last, only two are nov
alive, and these arc children. It was the
disease of pneumonia that went through
this family with its fatal effects.''
Dr. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., in bb
book on Chronic Diseases, says in regard
to his Golden Medical Discovery, with
which our readers ure familiar : .?. From
its wonderful power over Consomption
of the Lungs, I had thought strongly ol
calling it my Consumptive Cure; but
from the fact that it is a perfect specific
for the sore throat and hoarseness to
which ministers and other public speak
ers and singers are subject, and also for
Bronchitis, and ail severe Vaughn, and is
an invaluable remedy for diseases of the
Liver, and also as a Blood Purifier, 1 de
cided not to apply to it a name which
might mislead and prevent its use in oth
er diseases for which it it is so admirably
adapted.
"ltwill eurea cough in ono half thc
time necessary tc-cure it with any otb ci
medicine, and it doe* it not by drying il
up, but by removing the cause-subdu
ing the irritation and healing the affected
parts."
A WHOLE PEOPLE'S OPINION.-When
a nation of forty millions accepts and en
dorses ns a STANDARD RESTOKATIVE an
article that it has had the fullost oppor
tunities of testing during a period of
twelve years, who can be so absurdly in
credulous as to doubt tho excellence ol
the preparation? PLANTATION BJTTERS
has passed through this ordeal and is now
the most popular proprietary medicine
on this continent. It would bc difficult
td find an adult of either sex between the
Atlantic and the Pacific, or beiwecu the
northeast corner of Maine and the Guli
of Mexico, vhodoes not know, either
from personal experience or observation,
tliat tnis renowned vegetable remedy is
the purest tonic and stomachic and the
finest alterative and regulating medicine
at present before tho world. As a pre
ventive of, and cure lor, diseases genera
ted bv malaria, and as a specific lor dys
pepsia, rheumatism, and all nervous and
Difious affections, it is admitted to be
fairly pronounced the Favorite House
hold Tonic and Alterative of the Western
Hemisphere.
MAKE HOME ATTRACTIVE.-Nothing
adds more io ?he handsome appearance
of a house outside, and to its cheerfulness
inside, than good clear window glass, anc.
bright-colored ornamental glass at fin
sides and over thc tops of the doors. '1 ht
first lets in ali the bright wann light q.
the sun, while tho latter admits thc light
at the same time that it shuts oil* the viev.
of prying eves. The BcVt French am

WASHINGTON, February 20.-Hamp
ton, Butler and*Kershaw,of South Caro
lina, are here, asking a hearing before the
Ku Klux Committee to vindicate them
selves from charges made by Senator
Edmunds that they were Ku Klux lead
ers.
THE MILITARY PRISONERS.-The York
ville Enquirer says: On Thursday after
aoon last, the following York county pris
oners were returned from Columbia for
imprisonment here until their cases are
disposed of: R. T. Riggins, W. H. White,
J. P. Little, M. S. Bowen, andR. P. Cald
well, white; and Sam Stewart and Frank
Fewell, colored. J. S. Miller, who was tried
at the recent term of the United State
Circuit Court, has also been sent here to
serve out his term of imprisonment, which
will expire on the 2Sth of March next.
Including those returned irom Columbia,
there are now twenty-two military prise-"

Sinking Slowly*
Diseases that progress rapidly to a
crisis are not the only ones to ba dread
ed. Canker or dry rot does not blast a
tree as suddenly as a stroke of lightning,
but unless arrested it destroys it as cer
tainly ; and in like manner chronic de
bility, although it does not kill with the
swiftness of yellow fever, is as sure to
sap the springs of life eventually as any
acute disease, if not checked by invigo
rating medication. There is something
inexpressibly touching in the spectacle of
premature decay. Languor, pallor, ema
ciation, depression of spirits, and a dis
taste for exertion, are its ordinary symp
toms, and they should be promptly met
by tonic treatment. The best in vigoran t
and exhilarant that can be administered
in a case of this kind is Hosteler's Stom
ach Bitters. The stimulating principle
of the preparation rouses the dormant
energies of the system, and tho strength
ening and regulating properties give a
permanent ana healthful impulse to the
vital forces thus brought into play. The
failing appetite is re-awakenecL the pro
cess of digestion and assimilation are
quickened, the quality of the blood is
improved, the secretions become more
natural, and every organ that contributes
j to the nourishment of the body under
goes salutary change. By these means
the repair of the physical structure is ef
fected and its health and vigor restored.
In no class of diseases has the beneficent
operation of the Bitters been more mark
ed and striking than in those character
ized by general debility and nervous
prostration. Ladies affected with these
ailments find in this most wholesome of
all tonics and correctives the safest and
surest means of relief. It is strong to
restore and powerless to injure. Such is
the uniform testimony of "clouds of wit
nesses."
FROM DAN 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. 'Villa
ges and farm houses all present a more
elegant and comfortable appearance. The
reason is well known. It is because in
that period the wholecountiy has learned
I to patronize that celebrated manufacturer
?of Doors, Sashes and Blinds, Mr. P. P.

Gentlemen: Having used Ober's "A.A."
Phospho Peruvian Guano for four years
successively, and with such admirable
results, it gives rn? pleasure to add my
testimony to that of many others as to its
very superior value. I used thirteen
tons last year, and, as an evidence of my
appreciation of this article, shall increase
the amount tbis season. I have taken the
position (and have acted upon it) that tho
only title economy in the uso of Commer

concentrated and bost articles, and my
confidence in the manufacturers of the
" A. A." leads me to believe that in this

I hnvc used commercial fertilizers for
several years, and this year, with other
kinds, used the Wando, giving it, I think
a fair trial. In my opinion, tho Wando
gave inore remunerative results than any
other kind used by mc.

Thia is to certify that I have used the
Wando Guano for two years with the
happiest rcsultr-quantity applied^OOlbs.,
with 15 Bushels Cotton Seed per acre
with this manuring I increased the yield
of seed Cotton per acre about six hun

EDGEFIBLO, S. C., Dec. 30th, 1871.
This year I planted eighty-five acres
in Cotton, poor land, and used three tons
of the Wando Guano. I made, packed
and sold forty-eight bales, weighing 400
pounds. The three tons were applied to
45 acres, which produced 31 bales For
ty acres, better land, was unmanured,
and thc result was only 17 bales. The
cheapness, and thc intrinsic worth of the
Wando, places it upon a monied valua
tion. E. H. YOUNGBLOOD.
EnoEFiELD, S. C., Jan. 10th, 1872.
I have used the Wando Fertilizer for
two years, and willingly testify as to its
merits. Taking into consideration its
cost, it paid me bettor, as an investment,
than Peruvian Guano, andisoqual, if not
superior, to any fertilizer in the market,
of which I have any practical knowledge.

IMPORTANT TO COTTON PLANTERS.
THE MARYLAND
Pim? Al MAIMCTlif COMPANY
Have prepared a Special Fertilizer adapted to the Cotton Plant,
under the name of
COTTON FOOD!
Which they claim to be of the highest grade of Fertilizer sold in the South ?
and guaranteed to equal in its results Peruvian Guano, pound for pound
and to be of more permanent benefit to the soil.
It has been used by SEVERAL HUNDRED PLANT
ERS in North and South Carolina and Georgia for
two Seasons with the following results :
It increases the crop from 100 to 200 per cent. ,
It resists drought in all cases. The crop is not affected by rust.
It matures the crop three to four weeks in advance, thus insuring the
crop against early frosts, or in the event of a backward season for planting
enables the planter to put in his crop three or four weeks later, even as late
as the 1st June, with a certainty of success.
It produces a better quality of Cotton.
Looking at the low price of Cotton, the intelligent planter will readily
comprehend the necessity of using nothing but the highest grade of Ferti
lizers, and of strictly avoiding those whose value has been reduced by adul
teration, or the use of cheap materials under pretence of meeting the low
price of Cotton,
If his crop* is only doubled by the use of " COTTON FOOD" it will givs
him from one to two hundred per cent, profit on hie outlay, with Cotton at
12} cents per pound, and it will enable nim to plant fewer acres with a cor
responding reduction of labor and expense with better results.

Important to Cotton Planters !
A
COTTON FOOD SECURED BY LETTERS-PATENT.
_ SPECIAL FERTILIZER, prepared by the Marvlund Fertilizing and Manu
facturing Company, Baltimore, for the cotton crop, which they claim to be of tho
highest grade of Fertilizers sold in the South.
It has been used by soveral hundred planters in North and South Carolina and
Georgia for four seasons, with the following results :
It increases the crop from 75 to 200 per cent. ; it resists drouth in all cases.
The crop is not effected by rust ; it matures thc crop fran three to four weeks in
advance, thus insuring against early frost, or in the event of a backward season
enables the planter to put in his crop LS late as thc 1st Juno with a certainty of
success.
It produces a better quality of cotton ; its eiTcet on the second year's crop with
out additional manure, ranges from one-third to one-half of Hie Brat year.
Its mechanical preparation surpasses that of all other Fertilizers,' being at all
tunes and in all conditions of weather in perfect order for drilling.
PRICE IN AUGUSTA-$60 CASH . ?65 TIME.
It is sold on the basis in quality of Peruvian Guano, poundfor pound. Agents
are Instructed, when planters use it side by side with the best Peruvian Guano in
equal quantities, to refund such amount as will make it equal if it fails to prodnco
as much cotton ai] the Peru vian. Numerous testimonials can bc had at the offices
of the agents.

Gen. M. C. BUTLER, Edgefield, 8. C.
"I used three tons ' Cotton Food,' manufactured by the Maryland Fertilizer Com
{>any, of Baltimore, applying 200 lbs. to the acre. By the side of it I applied 200
bs. Peruvian Guano to the acre."
"The Cottop manured with the 'Cotton Food' grew oft' more promptly and vig
orously, and whilst I made no comparison of thc results, I am sure the preference
was in favor of the * Cotton Food,' and so much am I impressed with this belief I
shall use it exclusively this year in preference to all others. The Cotton manured
with it was not affected like the others by the drouth, and matured three weeks
earlier. I also applied it in a small way on Corn with the most satisfactory results."
J. H. HOLLINGSWORTH, Edgefield, S. C., to GR Ah AM & BUTLER, Augusta.
"I used 100 lbs. ''Cotton Food' to the acre, in the drill, on Mulatto Land, mixture
of sand, it increased the yield one hundred per cent I used several other kinds
the year before and I decidedly prefer the 1 Cotton Food.' It gave perfect satisfac
tion, so much so that 1 shall use it entirely another year.
H. W. ADDISON, to GRAHAM ?ft BUTLER, Augusta; Ga.
"I used 75 lbs. 'Cotton Food' in drills on light red land, which produced 103
pounds Seed Cotton to the acre. It compares favorably with the best Fertilizers in
tho murkot. My crop was increased about 50 per cent, and gathered bj' 15th No
vembcr. I am well pleased with it."
J. L. ADDISON, Edgefield, S. C., to GRAHAM it BUTLER. Augusta, Ga.
"I used about 266* lbs. 'Cotton Food' per acre, one-half in the drill at time of
planting and one-half in the first furrow, second plowing in June, on sandy land,
clay subsoil, verv poor old field, a portion taken m last year and a portion this, it
produced twelve bales on fifteen acres. It has paid better than anv Fertilizer I
have ever used. Have been using Commercial Manures ll years. Do not think
the land without manure under best circumstances would have produced 5 bales,
Most of ruy Cotton was gathered by the 25th of October, and had no Yellow Cotton.
I have talked with several of my iieighlx>rs, who Suite witn me in saying, there is
no better manure for the Cotton Plant. The ' Cotton Food ' has paid better than
Peruvian Guano previous to the war."
