Where shall we buy our Crockery
Glass and China Ware, and other arti
cles indispensable in every well regu
lated family? This is an importan1
question, but fortunately it can be an
swered without difficulty. Buyers, and
more especially the ladies who havE
largest experience in such things, likE
to make selection from a stock which i;
extensive in variety; and they are right
for they can do better than from
limited assortment which atfoids n<
chance to gratify their tastes or snil
their pockets. At Messrs. Kingslanc
& Heath's elegant store in Columbif
every possible desire can be satisfied
their stock is one of the largest and
best selected in the State. Send an or

FALSE IMPRESSION.
It is generally supposed by a certaiz
class of citizens, who are not practica:
or experienced, that Dyspepsia can nol
invariably be cured, but we are pleasei
to say that GREEN'S AUGUST FLOWEJ
has never, to our*knowledge, failed t(
cure Dyspepsia and Liver Complainl
in all its forms, such as Sour Stomach
Costiveess, Sick Headache, palpitatior
of the Heart, low spirits, &c. Out o:
30,000 dozen bottles sold last year, no!
a single failure was reported, bul
thousands of complimentary letters re
ceived from Druggists of wonderft
cures. Three doses will relieve an'
case. Try it. Sample Bottles 10 cents.

them. If you cannot afford to contrac

in the good old days, send in a fift:
cent one. No matter how small th<
price or the notice, send it in and shov
that there is life in the town. Make:
run on something, if it's only dried cod
fish or dried apples, and draw custon
by which other merchandise will bi
sold.

We have just received a commnunic:

such a good time he couldn't writ
sooner.
PicNIc.-The biggest picnic of th~
season comes off Thursday at Chine
Spring. Conveyances will be at tb
Female Academy for the ladies an
the baskets.
There was a very large congregatic
at Bush River Church Sunday. Ti
sermon was preached by Rev. W. I
Rice, Pastor, after which the Sacramer
of the Lord's Supper was administere<
The Presentment of the Grand Jur
is found in this issu~e. It is pointe
and searching, and the members wer
highly complimented by the Presidin
Judge for the manner in which the
performed their duties
Pope & Wardlaw have just received
a large addition to their stock of Drugs,
Toilet and Fancy articles, which they
offer "as low as the lowest." See their
advertisement.
If your dog isn't mad and you don't
want to get awfully mad yourself, you
had better keep him up, or the police
will be practicing on him with their
pistols. See ordinance of Town Coun
cil on the subject.
Mr. Cash has a pretty new awning in
front of his store. We have engaged
a white pine box and sitting room un
derneath. The next thing in order is
a sharp knife. Then let the dull days
of summer come.
THE HEATHEN CHINEE.-We saw a
letter from one of them the other day
that was a curiosity-written on fine
tissue paper in Chinese characters. Our
interpreter is absent or we would print
it.
0u: people should turn out more
generally to the Young Men's Christian
Association meetings, and thus encour
age the young men in their laudable
endeavors to do good. The meetings
are held regularly every Sunday after
noon in Temperance Hall at 5 1-2
o'clock.
Capt. Jas. N. Lipscomb, Master of
the State Grange, has arranged with
the proprietors of the Columbia Regis
Otr to have a "Grange Department" in
that journal, as an organ for their order,
once a week. The articles will appear
in the Daily, Tri-Weekly and Weekly
editions.
Women are going into the insurance
business. And when a comely woman
enters a man's office, hitches up her
chair, places a fair hand on his arm,
and begins to talk about policies, he
feels as if his life ought to be insured
pretty soon. And this feeling is greatly
augmented should his wife drop in un
expectedly during the interview.
ATTENTION.-We take great pleasu%e
f in calling attention to the advertisement
i of Dr. W. E. Pelham. The Doctor was
t one of the greatest sufferers by the late
fire, having had no insurance on his
I stock; but he has gone to work earnestly,
replenished -his stock, and keeps always
,on hand first class articles in his line of
rbusiness, which he sells at fair figures.
The "Baby's Best Friend" is the
most appropriate title for Dr. .Bull's
Baby Syrup. It is absolutely free
I from Opium, Morphia and other power
.ful agents, is perfectly safe and reliable
under all circumstances, and by allay
ing the usual Stomach and Bowel Dis
orders of Babyhood keeps the Child
from fretting and crying, so injurious to
itself and annoying to all. Price 25
7 cents.
1 IMPROVEMET.-Mr. Redding, of
t Charlotte, N. C., has the contract for
building three brick stores for Mrs.
Mower on Pratt Street, between Mr.
Singley's new store and the corner.
SThe stores will be built altogether out
- of new brick, and Mr. O'Neall, of Salis
bury, N. C.. has arrived with mules,
implements and thirty hands to manu
facture the bricks. The brick-yard is
I located near Mr. Crotwell's. We under
stand that all the stores will have iron
fronts, and will be of the same style of
architecture.

Mr. Blease any notice.
Thomas has left Newberry-it is not
Sthought that he will return. .

*Presentment of the Grand eJur-y C
STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, COUNTY OF a
NEWBERY.-IN THE GENERAL SESSIONS. t
To the Honorable L. C. Northrop, as
Judge of the Seventh Judicial Circuit:
We the undersigned as Grand Jurors re- a
spectfully present:
That in obedience to your Honor's in- C
structions, and in what we conceived to be n
our duty, we have, in the time we felt pro- ri
per to consume for the purposes hereinafter v
stated, made an examination into the affairs si
1 of the County, and as the result of our de- S
liberations submit the following : m
c:
FIRST, AS TO PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
tl
The County Jail is in a wretched condi
I tion. The roof leaks badly and the cells
are so badly mutilated that it must be a i
matter of almost impossibility to retain
prisoners securely.
The County Poor House needs immediate
attention; the buildings need repair. The r
inmates are destitute, in some cases, of la
clothing; their food is scant ; there is no b
medicine or physician to relieve the sick, tt
of which there are a number. We would
recommend that Dr. Andrew Wallace be 'e
employed as physician, until the Board of t1
County Commissioners can provide one, at
a salary of twenty-five dollars per month. C
SECOND, AS TO PUBLIC OFFICERS. m
We are aware that much of the uncer- p
tainty and probably dissatisfaction attach-- C
- ing to some of the County officers, arises tr
t from the circumstances which have sur- ti
rounded us for the past four months, yet
we cannot permit this opportunity to pass rE
without bringing to your attention some fi
matters which occur to us as important. 0
We are not sure that the County has a S
legal Clerk of the Court. This office is so tl
important that we feel that no doubt should tr
exist as to an officer holding so much of si
5 the people's money, and the custodian of so a
t much that is valuable in records, &c. G
We recommend that if it can be pro- nt
cured that an election be ordered to fill a
this office at an early day. s1
We find that but one County Commis
sioner, Henry Kennedy, has qualified as re- a
S quired by law. His bond is weak, how- t<
ever, and should be strengthened ; we so C
recommend. The other two County Com- ti
I missioners have not qualified as-required b
- by law, although they have provided bonds, tl
which are, in our judgment, insufficient. ti
We would recommend that ii it can be pro- u
cured an election shall be ordered to fill w
these offices at an early day ; but if they w
are retained in office, they be required to s
strengthen their bonds. c
*t We find that Munson S. Long, who has a
r entered upon the discharge of the duties of
the office of. School Commissioner, is dis- r.
. qualified from holding such office because ti
. he was convicted of official misconduct a
several years ago. n
tWe recommend that the necessary legal ti
steps be taken to remove him from the r.
office, and that an election be held for a t4
SSchool Commissioner, if such a step is
Spracticable.P
- We find that Jesse C. Smith, who for- a
L merly exercised the duties of the office of 'I
County Treasurer, has been removed by C
the Governor, and still holds public money ti
fin his hands, which money he will continue N
to hold until a successor shall be provi-led f'
to receive the same. .d
The bond of this officer is not satisfacto- a
ry to us. By his own statement he has
nearly four thousand dollars of public J
funds on deposit in the National Bank of b
-Newberry, subject to his individual check. t<
The law contemplates that all public of- tl
ficers shall keep their official funds to their e
official credit in some Bank. We would tl
recommend, therefore, that an order may a
be passed by your Honor enjoining any in- Si
terferenee of the said Jesse C. Smith with C
any funds now in Bank to his individual
credit, until the further order of this Court. o
SWe have learned from the said Jesse C. b
- Smith, that the Books of the Treasurer for a
our--County are now in Columbia. This ti
tshould not be allowed. We recommend p
that the said Jesse C. Smith be required to li
restore forthwith the said Books to their b
-proper place, to-wit : the County Treasu
3 rer's office at Newberry.
r We find that James W. Eichelberger is
- acting as Coroner without having qualified
as required by law, for although the law 7
authorizes him to hold over until a succes- b
sor .is provided, lie having been elected
his own successor, we feel that lie should b
not be allowed -to do so any longer by C
merely neglecting to discharge his duty. y
We recommend that an elcetion shall 'ae t~
procured to fill this office, more than thirty o
-days having already eiapsed since lie re
- ceived notification of his election.
SWe find that the Courty has no Treas-t
urer, Auditor, anid but one Trial Justice. hi
We would respectfully recommend that the si
attention of His Excellency Gov. Hampton a
be called to this mafter, to the end that a
the said offices may be filled at as early at
day as in his judgment practicable. b
b
AS TO THE COURT.
jWe find that some legislation is neces
sary in order to prepare this Court for the
trial of causes by Juries. This matter is -
too important to pass by. We would re- s
commend that our needs in this regard be I
presented to the attention of our members y
of the General Assembly, to the end that
appropriate legislation may be speedily
procured.
All of which is respectfully submitted.c

de for the necessities of its charitable in
itutions, it is particularly urged upon the
licitor pro tem. to seek such immediate
aterial assistance as the public-spirited
tizens of the community can afford. And

ay hereafter be collected it may be author

te General Assembly for this County,
ith the urgent suggestion that unless such
gislation be had at the present session of
te General Assembly the extra session
died by this Court will fail to relieve the

ier and School Commissioner, and to

4. That so much of the said presentment
relates to the ordering of new elections

als about whose tenure of office there
ould be no reasonble doubt or question.

A Wonder-Working Remedy.
No remedial agent has ever been offered to S
the sick and debilitated at all comparable to
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, in cases of re- in
mittent and intermittent fevers, constipation, E
nervous ailments, rheumatism, and disorders b1
involving constitutional weakness or physi
cal decay. It literallr "works wonders." The
botanic ingredients which its spirituous basis
holds in solution, act like a charm upon the

There is nothing in its composition that is not
salubrious. It contains some of the most po
tent tonics of the vegetable kingdom and the
juices of the best aperient and anti-bilious T
roots and herbs, combined with a perfectly ai
pure stimulating element. The Bitters are
peculiarly adapted to those engaged in ex
bausting or unhealthy occupations, as by its
use strength is sustained and the ability of
the system to resist atmospheric and other
influences prejudicial to health largely in- -
creased. 18-5t

ITRACT FROM PREF'ACE TO THE FOUR
.TEENTE EDITION.
The last edition of the United States Dis
nstory was published in 1870. Since that
me not only has the growth of pharmaco
gical science been very great,- btit there
:s also been promulgated ia new edition of
te United States Phairmacopcsia and a sup
Lement to the British Standard. The addi-.
ones and alterations which have thus been
cessitated in the first and second por
ons of the present volume are numerpus
id important.
"The advance of our knowledge of extra
Scinal drugs has been even more exten
e, reguiring the addition to the third part
Sthe Dispensatory of accounts of no less
an ninety-eight new substances, and, as
the cases of Propylamin, Nitrite of.Amyl,
c., a complete re-writing of many of the
d articles. The additions of course vary
Simportance, biut many of them are be
eved to be of decided value.
No care or labor has been spared to ren
3r the present edition equal in accuracy
id in completeness to its predecessors.
reat pains have been taken to omit super
aous matter and to condense the text; but
e additions have been so numerous that
te work has been aiugmented by about
~venty pages. This increase is of course
> deprecated ; but without it one of the
lief values of the book would have been
apaired, and it has seemed better to have
few pages more of print than not to have
complete representation of the Phana-~
Iogical science of t1e, tday?"

'actical item of economy'. Our paints are

Lner assuing no risk whatever, as we
