Carl Schurz, says the Wilmington Star, has been talking freely about the Repub lican nominee for President. He is for Sharman against the field. He will op pose Grant if he is nominated. He would not oppose Blaine,^ but he would not support him. He is against any mas who favors Grant. He did not once fan cy Sherman, but he knows him better now, and believes him to be the man to squelch Gran?stn. Wo give the follow ing bit of history as it appears in the Washington letter to the Baltimore Sunl it repr?senta Schurz assaying : " When he and Evarts made it the ul timptum of their remaining in the Cabi net that Packard in Louisiana and Cham berhtin in South Carolina should be al lowed te go by the board, and that mili tary interference in the local allai rs of toe So th ern States should cease, ho iSchurz) expected to encounter a bitter -ostilitv from Sherman in the Cabinet meetings, but to his astonishment he found that Sherman agreed with him fully. This gave a majority of the Cabi net over to the peace and conciliation Eolicy, and made it an easy matter to ring over Messrs. Deveu.% Thompson and McCrary, so as to have the Admin istration act with unanimity. After the downfall of Packard and Chamberlain, Sherman continued as the strong sup porter of all the President's conservative measures. He never once flinched, and when he followed np the Packard and Chamberlain business with his fight j air-dnst Conkling and the New York Custom House ring, Secretary Schurz says he concluded that here was the man for the Republican emergency-the emergency being the killing off of the Grant 'Lxxun ' " He does not know that Sherman will be nominated, but he will prevent Grant fr >m being the choice. The Grant mer, ou the other hand, say that his declina ture amounts to nothing. The Sun\t let ter says : "They say that Sherman's candidacy only helps Grant, for the reason that the more candidates there are with .some po sitive strength themorecomplicated will the opposition to Grant become, and the result will inevitably be that Grant will have to be taken as a last resort, just as Hayes had to be taken at Cincinnati. Schurz's threat that he will not support Grant if nominated causes avery bitter feeling among t^e General's friends, and they swear vengeance should they be thwarted in their purpose.'' If Sherman should kill off Grant Le will do a good deed doubtless. But is Sherman a much better man than Grant? He has a very ugly record. Who will kill off Sherman? He will do a goo.t deed that should not die tongueless. SENATOR VOORHEES ON THE PRESIDENCY. Senator Voorhees is for Hendricks for President. He predicts the certain nom ination of the favorite son of Indiana. Ho says Ewing will be elected in Ohio. He is of the opinion that John Sherman will be the Republican nominee. He says he knows that Grant does not desire the nomination, and is not a candidate. Of Gen. Hancock he has words of high praise. He says : "Hancock and David Davis would make a powerful ticket The former tan carry Pe nsylvania and the latter Illinois. Judge Davis is a magnificent, bruny man, and he is with us now heart and soul on all the great questions af fecting the country."' CONK LING'S CHANCES FOR TUC PRESIDENCY. The well informed Now York corres pondent of the Philadelphia Ledger writes that the Conkling set are disturb ed because Hayes and Sherman axe bulb to be at the Indiana State Fair. They want Conkling to enter tho Ohio canvass, and thus increase bis capital stock. 'J he fact of Grant's unwillingness to become a candidate add to their embarrassment. The correspondent says : " As long as General Grant's candida ture was a possibility, it seemed bardiy worth an effort on the part of any one else to place himself in competition with it ; but now that there is no such possi bility the conditions are materially chanced. There is an inducement to go to work now with some chance of suc cess. If Sherman were out of the way. Mr Conkling** friends believe he could walk over the course." A Parisjoorrespondeiit calls a'tention to the fact, which American ladies seem slow at comprehending, that to be iii thc fashion now means to be distinctively one's self in dress, and not as heretofore, a copy of some one else. Tho change makes it possible for all ladies to dress becomingly, which was impossible un der the old system.-New York Hcrattf. DEVTH OF GENERAL 1100?. A NOBLE SOUL DEI*AR TED. Sad Condition of His Children. KEW ORLEANS, August 30.-Gen eral J. B. Hood" died at lour o'clock this morning It is believed that his daughter Lydia ?.ill not recover. Edith is also very sick. Sketch of Ills Career. John Bell Hood was born at Ow inesville, Bath county, Ky., June 29, 1831; graduated from the United States Military Academy at Wt BI Point and appointed brevet second lieutenant of infantry July, 185o; transferred to the cavalry as second lieutenant 1S55, and promoted to be first lieutenant 1858. He was main ly engaged in frontier service in Tex as until 1859. He wasseverely wound, ed in an tncounter with the Lipan and Comanclelndians July 20, 1857, and was on leave of absence in 1860 He resigned his commission April 16, 1801, and entered the Confederate army, sei ving in every position from first lieutenant to that of command er-in-chief of an army, with the rank of Lieutenant-General. Ile took part in the Chickahomiuy campaign, and subsequently fought at the second battle of Manaasas, Sharpsburg and Fredericksburg. At Gettysburg, where he commanded a division of Long street's corps, he lost ??n arm on the second day of the battle. Rejoining 'the corps when it was sent to Georgia, he was at the battle of Chickamauga, where he lost a leg and was made a Lieutenant-General. Hesubsequent ly commanded a corps in the army ol Gen. Jos. E. Johnston, whom he suc ceeded in July, 1804, and waa there after in command of the Confederate army in its operations against Gen Sherman.

Soon after, anohter battle was fought near Nashville, De cember 15-1G, 1864, atula short time after was succeeded by Gen. Dick Taylor. Since the war he has lived in New Orleans, principally engaged in insurance business. Gen. Hood was a brave and able officer, but was --jxpcthe equal in generalship and ex B?t^fIu1rH:5^.GeQeral Johnston. ? PENN'S DIu/0^_ For the Advertiser. LET US AWAKETO THE SUBJECT OF ROAD-WORKING. Editors of the Edgefield Advertiser : As you are interested in the public roads, and travel over them occasionally in picnic season, perhaps you might like to hear the condition they are in, which I tell you isa very bad one. A reliable gentleman who lives a few miles South of Ninety-Six, said to me it would not hurta buggy any worse to run it down the steps of a house, than it would to run it over some places in the roads. I have also heard bad reports as to how the roads have been worked in the Moun tain Creek section of County. The Com missioners ordered all overseers to warn out their hands and put the public roads in good fix, if it took the full number of days required by law to work them. Have the overseers obeyed the order as to working the roads well ? No, not one in ten ! The Commissioners ought to make overseers know what it is to obey orders, and overseers ought bo make roa J hands know what orders really mean. If overseers fail to obey orders, the Commissioners ought to, without fear, favor or affection, report them, and have mern fined according lo law. And just such Commissioners is what Edge liold County ought to have. And then we would begin to have better roads ; and when Commissioners or any other officers fail to do their duty, then it's the people duty to turn them out, and put new ones in their places. There is a great complaint about not having picks and shovels to work the roads with, which I think is a just one. Why don't the Commissioners furnish these; why not levy a tax sufficient to get such tools? Five or ten cents from each taxpayer in the County, I think, would certainly pay for them, and noliody would be hurt. The most of the overseers and hands, I think, have come to the cono-lli ston that it does not matter much wheth er they work the roads or not. If they only walk over the road, brush it a little, and flinir a little dirt in the worst places, it's all right. What is the matter with the people of Edgelield ; have they lost all their public spirit and enterprise? There is a song a great many overseers and their hands have been singing for th? last ten years. It runs pretty much thus: The overseers, when they meet to work in the spring say, " men, it's too busy a time to do much to the road now; we have too much plowing to do at home; corn and cotton don't grow in the big roads; but when we lay by our crops, we'll meet again in August, and then we will fix the roads all right." And when they meet to give the road that good August working, they have another song to sing which is ''tuen, the protracted meetings commence on Sat urday, aud it will take a day or two to fix for them, and when they are over, wo will have fodder to pull, so we'll have to give the road a light brushing over again." And oh ! how heartily tho hands sing this song, and clap theil hands for joy, and say, "we've got mighty g> od overseers ; what a parcel of clever fel lows they are !" And the Commission ers to whom we look to have tho road.s worked, it seems, have been sitting un der the sound of those sweet songs until they have fallen into the same strain, all agreeing and getting a long together well. Our Democratic Commissioners de serve credit for the economy they have used in buildiug bridges and taking caie of the people's monev; but what credit they deserve for having the public high ways worked, I leave for the people who travel over the roads to judge.

Oar friend Mcsweeney, who, for a cou ple of years, issued so fine and popular a paper at Ninety-Six, no.w lifts up his u?e ful voice and wields his manly right arm in the low country. The Guardian now comes lo us from the new town of Hamp ton, the capital of the new county, on the Augusta and Port Royal Railroad. And the Guardian of the low country is not a whit behind the Guardian of the up country, which is saying a great deal. Our heart is with our friend in his new field, and we wish bim fairsailingand unbounded success. TUE LAW FOB MURDERERS. " Every departure from the good Bible law of capital punishment has been followed by a fearful increase in the number of murders and of other crimes," and in every State where the death penalty has been abolished there is a growing public sentiment in favor of the re-enactment of the law. There is no safety without it and the p.isons are full of those whose hands are red wi*h the blood of their neighbor.-?. In Kentucky ''it is urged that it would be better to hang convict.0 than to imprison them for life," and the Georgia legislature are considering two very important measures-to expedite the trial of murderers and to repeal the "Alston Law," which piovided that juries should decide whether a murderer should be confined in the penitentia ry or hung. In all the other States where a mistaken humanity has pro vided for tho immunity of the priso ner rather than the safety of society there is a movement to make murder and all the graver crimes punishable by death. It may not be in accord willi the raercilul tendencies of the age but why redhanded assassins should be treated with more consid eration than their poor victims is a question that has never been satisfac torily answered. Of late years there has been entirely too much tender ness for criminals and these efforts to rebuild the gallows are a step in the right direction. The law has been an insufficient protection for society am1 through corrupt courts, half hearted prosecutions and money-mak ing executives murder ha', been made a kind of inhuman pastime. If more men were hung there would be less necessity for lynch law and fewer murderers. Capital punishment has the highest possible endorsement-it is right and proper and effective. No other method has ever filled its place. It is a sickly sentimentality that would make the protection of thieves and cut throats more sacred than the purity and well being of society. Abbeville Medium. Is lt Possible That a remedy made of such common, simple plants aa Hops, Buchu, Mandrake, Dandelion, ?fcc, make so many and such marvelous and wonderful cures as Hop Bitters do? It must be, for when old and young, rich and poor, Pastor and Doe tor, Lawyer and Editor, all testify to having been cured by thom, we must believe and doubt do longer. See other column. 2t A FOUL CRIME COMMITTED !

Sept. 4-lt 39 THE BEST REMEDY Diseases of Hie Throat M tigs, B : Diseases AYERS pulmonary are so prevalcn?wd fatal, that a safe ami reliable remedy for them is invaluablo to every community. AYE'R'S CHERRY PECTORAL is such a remedy, and no other so eminently merits the confi dence of the public. It is a scientific com bination of thc medi cinal principles ami curative virtues of _ the finest drugs, PECTORAL, chemically united, to insure thc great est possible efficiency and uniformity of re sults, which enables physicians as well as invalids to use it with confidence. It is the most reliable remedy for diseases of the throat and lungs that science has pro duced. It strikes at the foundation of all pulmonary diseases, affording prompt and certain relief, and is adapted to pa tients of any age or either sex. Being very palatable, the youngest children take it without difficulty. In tho treat ment of ordinary Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat, Bronchitis, Influenza, Cler gy m au's Sore Th r o at, Asthma, Crou p, and Catarrh, the effects of AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL are magical, and multi tudes are annually preserved from serious illness by its timely and faithful use.

The marvellous cures which AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL has effected all over the world are a sufficient guaranty that it will continue to produce thc best resutfcs*- .J An impartial trial will convince the most sceptical of its wonderful curative powers, as well as of its superiority over all other preparations for pulmonary complaints. Eminent physicians in all parts of the country, knowing its composition, recom mend AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL to inva lids, and prescribe it in their p-actice. The test o? half a century has proved its absolute certainty to cure all pulmonary complaints not already beyond the reach of human aid. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
