A now role-the Clerk of the Court singing bass and the Probate Judge keeping time. Two paupers died at the poor house recently-one white and one black. The weather for the past week has been so cool as to ronder bed quilts and blankets indespensibla at night. We return thanks to Mr. J. T. Sin gleton for a very nice watermelon. LeRoy Barr, one of our oldest citi zone, died at his residence East of Easley Station on last Sunday. Camp meeting at Easley is now in progress. The crops in some sections of the County, we learn, are suffering for rain. Art. C. was in town last Monday, and took a lively interest in the foot race. Ho compromised his difficulty and got off without fighting. Prof. James G. Douthit taught quite a successful singing school in the Methodist Church at this place last week. rhilosophy is a good thing. Phil osophy gives a man cheek enough to pay one cent for a newspaper and five cents for a poor cigar. THANKs.-Hon. E. 11. Bates will please accept our thanks for a basket of the finest and most deliscious peach es we have seen this year. Mr. L. R. Dur-ham will accept our thanks for a lot of very fine large pen ches, sent in week beflore last, and which we should have acknowledged in our last issue, but could not for want of space. EAaLY CO-rrON.-T. A. Brown, a tenant of Col. Welborn's, brought~ to this office last Tuesday a very fine tanlk of cotton, w'ch had several grown and well developed boils on it; one of the boils was openI and the lint appeared to bo very good. Our heriff only has t wo boarders now, couple of fifteenth amend-. mnonts sont up from Triad Justico Liddell'scourt, for 30 days,for fighting and creating a disturbance. Whena a boy with a pre'judico against dogs observes an old oyster can in a condit,ion of inaactivity ho at once begins debating the question whether it was created to point a moral or adorn a tail. The dog gets the first news of~ the decision. Parties going to and returning f'rom the mountains, through this place have been quite numerous ro oently. The most of them carry their tents, bed clothing and provisions and "rough". it out in the mountains. A Dr. W. T. Field will accept our tlhanks for a lot of deliscous peaches. They wore large, juicy and finely flas vored. The Dr. has a large orchard and his trees are loaded down, Hie has one orchard on the side of Glassy Mountain, which has not been known to miss bearing'but two years in fifty. "Aj stitch in time saves nine,'! dis.. case in various forms is superinduced by the existence of worms in children Abd adults. Shrinor's indiani Vormi fugo wvill destroy and expel them, thus removing the cause, Saving both life and money. An old hunter undertook to show some of the party the deer stands in the mountains. Hoe got lost, waiWdor, ed about three hours, jumped upa buck during the time and let him es cspe unscathed. Me came home Very much chagrined at the Ioss of prestige as a successful hunter, and now threatens to kill his dog because hi~ + namlo is Nimrod. ESCAPED.-W.AV learn that a prison er, (colored,) sent up to jail, by Trial *Justice Liddell for some of'ense, made liscape from the Constable, Mr. Jseph Werner, while en route to ti - place. it appears that Mr. Werne a hadl the negro i,ied, and was' br'inrnnr him, behind him, on horseback Th horse stumbled and fell, hing The Werncr severely. The erwaun hturt, and seeing the Conditionof Mrsun Werner, and knowing that hn of Mr. badly hurt he could not pet is escape, untied the knots often hise with h in t.oo .theadw*lo off. Tai ELSOTIOX..-The eWtion on the stock law came off in Garvin and Salubrity townblSPs an 8urday last, and resulted, as will be seen by tho official statement made by the County Vommissioners In this issue, in an overwhelming defeat of the pro position. In Garvin township the total number of votes given was 383, Of this number 57 were in favor of fencing stock, an, 270 against it, making a majority of 219 Against the law. In Salubrity, 802 votes were polled-81 in favor of, and 271 against the law, making a mfajority of 240 in opposition to the law, The voters in these townships have probably acted wisely in defeating the proposition at this time. They can afford very well to' wait and lot those townships and counties lower down, which have adoptoa the law, test its merits. They can profit by their experience, and if the law proves to work advantageously, then they can adopt it, but if it should prove to work injuriously then they can con tinue to defeat it, should it be brought up again for their action. Beggars visit our town occasionally. If they are not able to obtain an honest living without begging they IhOuld be sOnt io ihe poor house. LIBERTY ITENS. Mr. S. D. Stewart has taken the premium in the cultivation of waterk melons this season. Peaches wore grown in the orchard of Mrs. M. A. Callaham, this season, measuring eleven inches in circumfer ence. Our council have had a public well dug near the corner of Main and Pickons streets; they have also great ly improved the appearance of Main street by some timely strokes with the pick and plow. Last Tuesday seems to have been a "hog kill[ng time." Three of Mr. A. O'Doll's hogs were crushed by the timber train. We are to have another singing school, beginning on the 27th inst. This shows hcw highly the young peopio of our community, and of Cen tr a, estimate the singing qualit,ies of Prof. Douthit, and each others com pany. There was a general strike in one of our district schools the other dlay. It is said the teacher struck "mostly." Some of our' good citizens would liko to knowv why "Uncle Sam," like a prudent school teacher, does not slap) th1ose bad boys, who are conltinu, ally running to him with some tale, withmout evidence to establish anything oxcept their own folly? lie just as good as told one of them to shut his mouth last Wednesday. We have not yet been favoredl with that "good time to sow turnip)s," of wvhich you speak. Messrs. McOuire and McKinney, two (leaf mutes, entertained our citi zons with their splendid Mlagic Lan-. torn Exhibition on Thursday evening. Our citizens are making stronuoue efforts to have a road opond from this plaeo through by Mr. William Smith's plantation. BRUTUS. CENTRAL ITEKS. Crops are not good in this section, but ' best". The fruit and melon crop is "power ful." Our streets have been thoroughly renovated, under the skilful supervis ion of Mr. IH. . Central boasts of a "bad" base ball club. We challenged the Pendleton club the other day, but they practiced the -'crawfish movement." We have a "stunning" debating so, cioty--will diseuss the fence question to -night, A ugust 17th. One of the "colored per'suasion'" entered "Cousin John's" bed room the other night, and attempted to relieve him of his surplus cash. He was cap, tured afterwards, tried and started to jail, but 0scapoed from the constable. Some one broke into Mr. WV. H. Hester's store cn Wednesday night, and stole some 325 worth of goods. It seems that he 'vas disturbed in the operation, for ho loft his hat and a box of tobacco just out sido the win,~ dow, and a p)air' of shoes at Itho fence. So much for thie bad news, now for' the good. Revs. Mondenhall and Lyon have held a very suecessful meeting at Pen dieton. Some fif ty peisons have join ed the church. Our kind and jolly Treasurer and his efiient assistant, Mr. B1., were in town inst week. EIiction comes off to-morrow, the 18th. R10VER.

Settled beyond a doubt-No one questions the fact that more cases of whites, suppres. sed and irregular menses and uterine ob, { struct ions, of every kind, are being daily cured, by Dr. J- Bradfield's Female Regulator, than by all other remedies combined. Its success in Georgia and other States is beyond precedent in the annals of phisic. Thousands of certificates from women everywhere pour in upon the proprietor. The attention of prom inent medical men is aroused in behalf of this wonderful compound, and the most success ful practioners use it. If women suffer here after it. will be their own fault. Female Regulator is prepared and- sold by L. 11 Bradfield, Druggist, Atlanta, Ga., and may be bought at $1,50) per bottle at. any respectable Drug Store in the Union. EIFECTL1 TIlLY NVONnEnF-. 7r CAnTIPItsvi.ax, Git., April 24, 1869.-This will certify that two members of my imme diate family, after having suffered for many years from menstrual irregularity, and having been treated without benefit, by various med. ical doctors, were at length completely cured hy one bottle of Dr. J. Bradfield's FEIA LE RtEGULATOIl. I therefore deem it my duty to furnish this certificate, with thle hope ot drawinig attention of suffering womienkind to the merits of a medicine whose power in cur, in g irregular and suplpressed menstruation, has beeni proven under liy ownl personal ob, servation, Its effect on such cases is truly woniderfuil, and well may the remedy be0 called "'Woman's Best Friend."'
