TUTT'S Liver PILLS ABSOLUTELY CURE. ? ? Reliable Field a id Garden Seeds. One of the largest, if not the largebt, mercantile firms in the State, is that of Lorick & Lowrance of Columbia. Besides carrying heavy stocks in their other departments, they pay especial attention to their Seed department, which of itself is immense, and can furnish any kind of seed wanted, in small and large quanties ; and at prices as cheap as those of the growers.

May They be Realized. rrom me signs ui non givujjv* fires which paint the evening skies a brilliant red with their reflections, there will be an increase acreage put , under cultivation this year. Our j farmers are full of energy, pluck and perseverance, and have started the i season's work with bouyant spirits and full of hope for bountiful harvests and better prices for farm products. May they be fully realized. ?* Some Big Hogs. I Some big hogs have recently been killed in the Fork. "We regret exceedingly that Capt. G. T. Haiti- J wanger's communication has been ! misplaced so that we cannot give the names of the persons killing the hogs any how we remember that one of them raised the beam at 620 pounds and an ether somehting over 700. ; The men to whom they belonged evidently believes in living at home and ( boarding at the same place. > -? . Provide for Home First. "Why will farmers plant cotton in the face of continued advice, and from their own experience? The re- 1 suits of the past years siiouid con- } vince them that a short crop of j cotton gives them as much money as j a large one, besides the glory of hav- I ing barns and larders filled with the j good things of this world. Small 1 cotton crops are the things to make a country flourish. You will pay debts about as fast, too, as'to raise 5c | cotton. Be sure yot r crops of corn, } peas, wheat, oals, rice, potatoes, sorghum, etc., for home consumption are large enough and some for market, then for your cotton and you will feel independent in the fall. Always ReliableIf there is one merchant in Columbia better known to the people of this county than another, that one is C. F. Jackson. Having been in bus iness for a long period of years, he has established a reputation for fulfilling all his promises and treating bis patrons and customers a little better than he promises. He now has a large and well selected stock of dry goods, notions, etc., which he is offering at prices bound to sell the goods. When he says he will give purchasers bargains in goods in his line, he means what he says, and our j readers can depend upon it. So j when you go to the city to make j your purchases, do not fail to call on Mr. Jackson, iu the post office block; t^ll him your wants and he will fill your bill with first class goods, at third class prices. A Belled Euzzard. Mr. Thomas Shealy, who resides in I the Lexington Cross Roads section j discovered a belled buzzard on his j place Saturday about 1 o'clock.

JUDICIAL ETHICS. Squire Dreher en the Rep:rt cf the Grand Jury. To the Editor of the Dispatch: I noiice from the last issue of your paper that my name has been mentioned to the Grand Jury by Mr. H. D. Taylor for non performance of duty in not having papers served against the Amicks. The facts are these: About the first of last September I passed through the town of Lexington on my way to the lower part of the county on a big camp fish; Mr. Taylor met me and asked me to serve some papers on the Amicks for himself, the papers havin/v ?>i o ?1 n An f 1\T? vr nllov T ! UCCU IJ.JC414V~ UUV KSJ AVAt* ^XU4<V1.* signed them and told Mr. Taylor that I would attend to the matter when I returned home. When I gut back I learned that Trial Justice Deriiek had tried the cases. To make sure of the matter, I sent my constable to see Mr. Derrick and afterwards saw him myself. His statement to both of us was that, uke had investigated the matter and found there was nothing in the cases." Surely not the most exacting critic, unless from very selfish motives, would have expected me to have proceeded further in direct violation of all laws of professional fairness and propriety towards a fellow Justice. I would a thousand times prefer to sacrifice my official head rather than be guilty of such disi? i-i ?.. i. i _ _i ir.. rr nonoraoie couuuci 10 pioaso iui. jluvlor or any one else. I will state further that quite re ccntly I investigated a case for Mr. Taylor against the Arnicks for blockading a public highway, and finding nothing in the case, dismissed it which was, probably, an additional stimulus to Mr. Taylor in his report to the Grand Jury. The Solicitor fully endorsed my course throughout, as every one can find out by asking him. My official record is a matter of public concern and I am always glad to answer for it at that tribunal.

The case was dismissed on account of the warrant being improperl}' drawn. This is the second case of chicken stealing before this court and no body has been convicted yet, the argument being used that chicken stealing is done for fun and there is, consequently, no harm in it; but suppose, Mr. Editor, somebody should enter your office and take your printing press just for fun, would you see where the fun came in? But it is no use to say anything more about it: maybe they will stop it after awhile, but I am sorry that our good people (for we have as good people in this settlement as there are in the county) should be subjected to such fun as this because they live among such people.
