TIE SENTINEL D. F. BAOLXY'- j1r P1CVCEN 0.- H., SL C.: Thursday, August 23, 1877. Murder in AbbeTile. Hiram Wooms was shot through the hoad and instantly killod, by Low is Granrt, at Tabernacle (colored) camp'mecting, at Abbeville C. I., on ttrO' 14th ibst. The bullet entered Weems' skull, just above the left oye, ranging to to the right and down. The murder is said to have been Un provoked and brutal. Independents Squelched. In the municipal election in Green. ville on the 18th inst., the regularly nominated ticket was elected, defent% ing the Independent (mild term for Radical) ticket, headed by Maj. T. B. Ferguson for Mayor, by a handsomo m.njority. Tho following is tho tickot elocted: Mayor-W. L Mauldin; Al dormon-G. G. Wells, It. A. Caublo, Dr. Waddy Thompson, John M. Curo ton, Henry Briggs and J. C. Boyd. The disorganizors (Independents) were completely squelched, and we congratulate the good Domocrats of Groenvillo on their success. 04W* Not True. We publish on our outsido this wook a lottor of a Charloston corres pondent of the New York Sun, headed "Moses in the witness box," which purports to give some very interest ing facts to the public, and makes some statements about shielding Do mocrats implicated in the frauds of tho IRadioal administrations sinco the war. These statements we did not credit, and believed that in duo time the falsity of the assertions would be exposed. The able and vigilent Coluin bia correbpondont of the News and Courier has investigated the matter, and here is what he has to say about it: CoLUMBI, August 13.-The mom,% bers of the Investigating Comuiitteo assert, in the most emphatic terms, that there is not one wvord of truth in the letter of a Charleston correspond ent, which appeared recently in the New York Sun and which wvas repub.. lished ia the Newvs and Corier to day. The statement that an attempt has boon made, or will be made, to shield .Uemocrats concernedi in the public frauds is particularly denounced, in plain terms, as a lie out of whole cloth. The comnmitteou have expressly declared their intention to spare no '. ho might be found to It is probable that Lihe ~r os pondent will be summoned at once and required to give his authority for his information. If there is a leak the committee are determined to find it, and if' there is not the correspon dent will be placed in a bad light. THE PICKENs SENTINEL comes to us from the mountain heights of the 'Blue Ridge. This paper devotes some space to locals, but keeps its main .eye on the current matters of the State and the nation. This paper is nicely printed on lar'go typo. The p)ublisher could give as much reading matter on a smaller sheet and save an item in paper bills these hard tim'es. The editor is .D. F. Bradley, a staunch Democratic Reproson tative in the General Assembly from that County. --Abbevillo Pross and Banner. We wvould devote more spaco to locals, but the fact iq, friend Wilson, locals in this County havo boon about as scarce as candidates for County offices on the Radical ticket. If the editor of the Press and Banner had carried out the scriptural injunction in his youthful days and took unto himself a wife, he, in all probability wvould r.ow have a half dozen, or a dozen, grand children pratling around his knees, and would be in favor of typo as large as a Juno-bug, and a paper as small as a shoot of' fools cap writing paper. We are much obliged jo the Press and Banner for its criti pige, and as we are young, will try to improve with increasing age. The elections in Alabama last Mon, daty week for county offleers resulted in a defeat of the Radicals all along the line. Mongomiery and Dallas coun'ties for the first time, were carried by the Democrats. Barbour', also el outed the Democratic ticket. Nasar* of Christians. Tho Turks havo again defeated the Russians on the Osma, Qn i with the news of the batbo como at of the cold blooded, heartless 'A" inhuman massacre of twelve orfliften thousand Christians by tho Tuiks: We have not heretofore taken much interest in this war, but from now on we shall watch its progress a great doal mo,ro closely, and rejoice when the complete triumph of the Russian arms is announced. The Turks should be driven out of Euro'o or c"6i'tolf subjitgatod. The following is tho tol, egraphic account of the massacro: LONDON, Aug. 14.-The News' But.. charest correspondent telegraps as fol-i lows: "I have written the following as I received it, and from tho terriblo accounts which the fugatives continu ally bring over the Balkans, I fear it must be only too true. On July 31, the day of the Russian ovacuation of Eski Saghra, the Turks ordered that all Christians, men, womon and chil dron, should bo shot as they left their houses. Those who remained within woro burnt alive. Tio order was giv en to burn down and destroy every particlo or Christian property in the place. Many leading Turkish mor chant took part in the affair. One dispatched a large number of Bashi Bazouks all over the Tchirpan District This district is one of the richest in that part of Turkey. It contains a very large proportion of Christian in, habitants, with over 200 churches and 500 schools and colleges, all of which have been burned. Tho destruction extended to the villages of Brbghman, Maholesi, Cani and many others; in all aboubt sixty villages, containing from 150 to 200 families eich. Scurco. ly fifty persons have escaped alivo. The Bulgarian fugatives at Gabrova and Solvi estimate that frcm 12,000 to 15,000 Christians have been masacred in tho Eski Snghra and Tchirpan dis tricts alone. Soldiers were posted along the road from Eski Saghra to Kasanlik with orders to shoot every body passing.". FIIEMONT, Ohio, August 18.-The Executive Committee of the Soldiors National Reunion, announces that their next meeting for Marietta, Ohio, September 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th. Can non, ammunition, arms, tents and two hundred stands of regimental colors, p)rovided for by acts of Congress and the Ohio Legislature, are already on the grounds. A number of dlistin guished Gerierals, among whoma are Gener als Cockerell and Joe Johnston Generals Sherman and Cook arVo to ho there, and it is expected that the Pros. sident will also attend. Trhe Governor of the State and his staff will be pro. sont, and Governor Young wvill for mally open the camp on the first day. All soldiers of both armies aro invited, and nio political speches, will be tolerated. Every State will be re p)resented by ex-soldiers of the Union and Confederate armies. CorUMBTA, Auigust 15.-The Su preme Court has announced its decis ion in the case of the State cx rel. Dunton vs. Cobb. The mandamus of the Circuit Court is set aside. This decision sustains the constitutionality of the " Act to provide for' the pay ment of pNst-due schdol claims," ap proved 3d March, 1874. Opinion by Willard, C. J. County Treasurer Gil reath closed the collection of the 1st installment of taxes on Saturday last. The re ceipts will foot up about *17,000, which speaks well for Greenville County.-Groenville News. It is now estimated that the strik ers destroyed between twenty five and thirty millions of property, that much of the means which enabled them to obtain employment and a living. A new mode of running a foot race was practiced at this place last Mon, day. The race was between Messrs. W. T. O'Dell and - Hollis. The ground-one hundred yards--was stepped off. Mr. 0. took position half way betwveen; Mr. II. started at the begining of the 100 yards and ran with a fence rail on his shoulder; Mr. 0. started as Mr. HL. came oven with him, but made only a slight effort to run, for Mr. II. whized by him 80 fast that ho saw the race was hopeless, dropped his head and turned back to the great amusement of his friends: It is said the man who cnrries the rail and runs the hundred yards will al. ways beat, for ha~ is running at full speed when ho comes up eo en with the man who is to run the 50 yards and can get out before his opponent can got under full speed and overtake him. Organiathen of a Cavalry Company. Pursuant to notice previously givon, a ineeting was held in the Court House on Saturday, the 18th day of August, 1877, for tho purpose of organizing a cavalry company. On motion, D. F. Brudley, Esq., was called to the chair, and R. A. Child, Esq., was requestod to act as socretary, Tho chair explained the object of tho meeting and read the act passed at the lasI. session of the Gonoral Assem-. bly, under which it was proposed to organizo, and announced that the moting was organized and ready to proceed to business. On rmotion, the compary proceeded Ld organizo by the election of tho commissioned officei by ballot, w hich resulted as follows: Captain, James A. Griffin; 1st Lieut. V. T. Field; 2d Lieut. 0. P. Field; 3d Lieut. J. J Lowis; Orderly Sorgcant, IV. 'T. Mc Fall; 2d Sergeant, J. T. An(hony; 3d SorgeAnt, Riloy Simmons; 1st Corporal J. R. Harris; 2d Corporal, D. E. IRcn dricks; 3d Corporal, J. C. Griflin; Surgoon, Dr. Goo. V. Earle. On motion, the Company was named "The Hampton Home Guards." On motion, the company adjourned to mcot, on saloday next. R. A. CHILD, Sc'ry. The Stock Law. Tho election on the stock law in Laurens County took plack on Tuos day last, and resulted aa follows: In Laurens township-yes, 92; no, 534. In Souffletown township-yes, 63; no, 227. In Hunter township, there n as no election, in consequence of the managers failing to appear. The no, groes voted solidly against the pro posed change in the law. The election in Chester county also occurred on Tuesday, resulting in a considerable majority for foncing tho stock in every township. There was great unanimity among the voters in favor of the chnge, and Chcstcr will test the experiment as an entire coun ity. Fairfield county voted up)on. the quoston in nino townships on We'd, nesday. Several townshuips suistainied the change, including WVinnsboro, but tbe result in the aggregate hais not been received. Seven townships in York County voted on the stock law~ last Tuesday week. Four townshIps adopted thme new law by small majorities, and the others reject,ed it by a considorable vote. nE ELECTION YESTERDAY.--The A bbev illo Presq and Ban nor ay: Yesterday was tho day aplpointecd for the eloetion on the fejnce question in the various towvnships of this county. We have hoard the result from but few of the townships. At Abbevillo thocro were three votes against~ thme IawV to one for it. At Iodges Depot the vote stood "yes," 180, "no," 220; at Groonwvood, "yes," 155, "no," 308; at Niuety-Six, the fence law was ad opted by a small majority. This is perhaps the only township in the county which did adopt it. Ayer 's Sar sap ar illa For Scrofula, and all scrofulous diseases, Erysi pelas, Rose, or St. Antho ny 's Fire, Eruptions and hruptive diseases of the skin, Ulcerations of the Liver, Stomach, Kidneys, Lungs, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Blotenles, Tumoers, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald IIead, Ringworm, Ulcers, Sores, Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Pain in the Bones, Side and IIead, Female Weakness, Sterility, Leucorrhoea, arising from internal ulceration, and Uterine disease, Syphilitic and Mercurial dis eases, Dropsy, Dyspepsia, Emaciation, General Debility, and for Purifying the Blood. This Sarsaparilla is a combination of vegetable alteratives - Stillingia, Man drake, Yellow Dock -- with the Todides of Potassium and Iron, and is the most efficacious medicine yet known for the diseases it is intended to cure. its ingredients are so skilfully com bined, that the full alterative cffect of each is assured, and while it is so miild as to be harmless even to children, it is still so effectual as to purge out from the system those impurities and corruptions which develop into loathsome disease. The reputation it enjoys is derived from its cures, and the confidence which prominent physicians all over the coun try repose in it, prv their experience of its usefulness. Certificates attesting its 'virtues have accumulated, and are constantly being received, and as many of these cases are ,publicly known, they furnish convincing evidence of the supriority of this Sar 'saparilla over every other alterative medicine. So generally is its superi ority to any other medicine known, that we need do no more than to assure the public that the best qualities it has ever PoSSessed are striCtly maintained.

VEGETINE w.uriftes the Blood, Renovates and Invigorates the Whole System. - IT8 MEIUAL QUALITIVs ARE Alterative, Tonie, Solvent and Diuretic. VEFTIN Is made exclusively from the jucies of carefully selected barks, roots, and harba, and so strongly concentrated that it will effectually eradicate (rom the system every taint of Scrofula, Scrofulous Miumr, Tumors, Cancer, Cancerous Ilumor, Erysi.. pelas, Salt R.hQum, Syphilitic Diseases, Cank or, Faintness at tie Stomach, and all diseas es that arise from in pure blood. Sciatica, Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Uout, and Spinal Complaints, can only be effectually cured through the blood. For Ulcers and Eruptive Diseases of the Skin,, Pustules, Pimples, Blotches, Boils, Tetter, Scaldhead, and Ringworm, Vegetine has never failed to effect a permanent cure. For Pains in the Back, Kidney Complaints, Dropsey, Female Weakness, Leucorrhoa, arising from Internal ulceration, and uterine diseases and General Debility, Vegetine acts directly upon the causes of these complaints. It invigorates and strengthens the whole system, acts upon the secretive organs, al lays inflammation, cures ulceration, and re gulates the bowels. For Catarrh, Dyspepsia, Habitual Costive, ness, Palpitation of the Heart, Headache, Piles, Nervousness, and General Prostra tion of the Nervous System, no medicine has ever given such perfect satisfaction as the Vegeti ne. It purifies the blood, cleanses all of the organs, and possesses a controlling power over the nervous system. The remarkable cures effected by Vegetine have induced many physicians and apothie caries whom we know to prescribe and use it in their own families. in fact, Vegetino is the best remedy yet discovered for the above diseases, and is the only reliable Blood Purifier yet placed be fore the public.

I am charged with having ad,% Visd the parties "to fight it out," this is untrue, as I heard a dispute be tween two of my scholars at 12 o'clock (on the day referred to), which I stopped at-once. There was a r<W raised by a young man not belonging to my school in the evening, and a few blows passed boe fore I could quiet it, but I soon put a stop to it. As to any, and all other chaigos made in said article, I am willing to have the whole matter investigated by tho proper authorities. Very respectfully, W. D. JENKINS, Teacher. A Result of Obstructed Digestion. Among the hurtful consequences of obstruc ted digestion, is the impoverishment of the blood, and since a deteriative condition of the vital fluid not only produces dangerous organ ic weakness, but., according to tie best medi cal authorities, sometimes causes asphyxia. it is apparent that to improve the quality of the blood by promoting digestion and assimila tion, is a wise precaution. Hostetter's Stom ach Bitters is precisely the remedy for this purpose, since it stimunlates the gastric juices, conquers those bilious and evacuative irregu larities which interfere with the digestive processes, promotes assimilation of the food by the blood, and purifies as well as ent iches it. The signs of improvement in health in consequence of iing the bitters are speedily apparent in an accession of vigor, a gain in bodily substance, and a regular and active per formance of every physical function COUNTY COMMISSIONER'S OFFICE, PicKENs, C. 11., S.
