A dispatch from Washington to the ; News and Courier says: 4'The war claims committee of the House has just submitted a comprehensive report on bills which have been introduced in Congress authorizing the Court of Claims to adjudicate claims for captured and abandoned property, without the permission of Congress, which has been necessary heretofore. The committee recommends that the bill pass. "During the civil war property amounting to approximately $20,000,000 was either captured by or abandoned to the Federal troops, and the proceeds thereof were placed in the i treasury of the United States. "By the Act of March 12, 1863, known as the captured and abandoned property Act, the Secretary of the Treasury was authorized to" appoint special agents to collect captured and abandoned property in the States then in insurrection, the proceeds thereof to be paid into the Treasury of the United States. Nine districts were established, and an agent appointed for each. A large amount of property in the States in" insurrection was seized, and the proceeds, amounting to over $20,000,000, reported to tne secretary or wie xreasury. The money was treated as a trust fund under the control of the Secretary. Already about one-half of this fund has been paid out, leaving at this time something like to $10,000,000, still belonging to the people of the Southern States. "The purpose of this bill is to extend the limitation upon the Court of Claims for the period of two years to entertain suits to recover the proceeds of the property of claimants where it can be'established that such proceeds were actually covered into the Treasury of the United States. This money does not belong to the Government, and the members of the committees who have investigated the question from time to time are convinced that nostone should be left unturned which would help the people of the Southern States to recover for what was Wrongfully taken from them. "The question of "loyalty" has fig- I urfed largely in this matter. In De- j cember. 1S69, the Supreme Court, of j the United States decided that the | "rebellion" was suppressed August I 20, 1866, the date of President Johnson's proclamation ,of pardon and amnesty, with restoration of civil and political rights and the limitation of the right to commence suit took effeet or expired August 20, 1S6S. Various other Acts bearing on the subject were passed from time to time. "In closing the report the committee says: "If the title of the owners of the owners of the property seized and sold under the captured and abandoned property Acts has never been divested, if the Government holds the net proceeds of the property thus sold, without any legal title thereto and as trustee for the owners, and if the President's proclamation of pardon and amnesty was a decision on the part of.the Government which decided affirmatively the right of all the owners of the property to the proceeds thereof in the Treasury, then in " .A--.? ?

Such letters as the following, from grateful women, establish beyond a doubt the power of 1 LYDIA E. PINKH AIM'S VEGETABLE COMPOUND to conquer all female diseases. Mrs. Norman R. Barndt, of Allentown, Pa., writes: "Ever since I was sixteen years of age I had suffered from an organic derangement and female weakness; in consequence I had dreadful headaches and was extremely nervous. My pliysi- x cian said I must go through an operation to get well. A friend told me about Lydia E. Pinkham s Vegetable Compound, and I took it and wrote you ' for advice, following your directions carefully, and thanks to you I am to- : day a well woman, and I am telling . all my friends of my experience." *FACTS FOR SICK WOMEN, i For thirty years Lydia E.

Card of Thanks. ! To the Editor of The Dispatch: Please allow us space in your valuable paper to extend our heartfelt thanks to the people of Edmund for . the kind and noble services they so j tenderly rendered our dear old father, | John J. Smith, in his last days of suf- \ fering and death, which occurred on Jan. 15. We shall neyer forget those noble faces, and kind-hearted people we met around his bedside, administering to his every want. May God's richest blessings be always with them through thi3 world of sorrow and sadness. I often find my thoughts reverting back to the old family burying ground, where dear old father and mother lie sleeping, though dear mother left us nearly 18 years ago. Father and mother, thou hast left us, And thy loss we deeply feel; But 'tis God that hath bereft us, He can all our sorrows heal. DAUGHTER. North, S. C., March 7. Prof. H. A. Howell of Havana, Cuba, Recommends Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. "As long ago as I can remember my mother was a faithful user and friend of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, but never in my life have I realized its true value until now," writes Prof. H. A. Howell, of Howell's American School, Havana, Cuba. "On the night of Feb: ruary 3rd our baby was taken sick with a very severe cold, the next day was worse and the following night his condition was desperate. He could not lie down and it was necessary to have him in the arms every moment. Even then his breathing was difficult. I did not think he would live until morning. .At j last 1 thought of my mother's remedy. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, which we gave, and it afforded prompt relief, . and now, three days later, he has fully . recovered. Under the circumstances I would not hesitate a moment in saying that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and that only, saved the life of our dear little boy."

Taylor, president of the Audubon Society of South Carolina: "Theie seems to be a pretty general impression in ttie State that some change has been made in the game laws.
