Thursday, September 20, 1877.
Yellow Jack.
Yellow fever has broko out at For.
htindina, Florida. Several deaths
have occurred from it.
Another beniooratio Victory.
The Democrats of California in tno
tecent election, carried the State, and
have about thirty majority in the
Legislaturo on joint ballot. This
docures a Democratic United States
Senator in placo of Sargeant, one of
Grant's henchmen. California is a
Democratic State, and was carried for
Mayes in the last Presidential olec
tion, by the most glaring frauds.
The Southern Hebrew.
The first number of the above journ.
a], published at Charleston, S. C., has
been received. It is an eight pago
paper, neatly gotten up, and filled
With very readable matter. It is
published, as its name implies, in the
interest of the Jews, and will doubt
less receive a hearty support from
that class of our citizens.
The Pre sident to Visit C olumbia.
The City Council of Columbia has
formally invited the President and
Cabinet to visit, Columbia, and it is
said that Governor Hampton has as
furances from the President that he
will do so in January or February
next. If the President accepls the
invitation, it is proposed to assemble
at Columbia a few thousand rod shirts,
and give to the President a welcome,
such as has not boon accorded him
elsewIhero.

The Eastern War.
'The Russians and Turks still con,
tinue to slaughter each other. The
Russians have laid seigo to Plevna,
and after a f earful loss of life succeeded
in taking one of the Turkish rodouibts,
which was thought to be the key to
success. But to the contrary, they
have just entered upon their work,
and after sever'al assaults, in which
they were repulsed with groat loss,
they are no nearer the captuire of
Plevna than when they first laid seigo
to it.
The Chronicle and Constitutionalist.
We call attention to the priospectus
of this able and worthy journal, which
appears in our columns this week.
The Chronicle and Constitutionalist
was a devoted friend to South Caroli,
na during her benighted days of RIad-~
loalism, struck many sturdy blows for
our deliverance, and deserves a hearty
and liberal support from South Caro
linians.
The Whipping Post.
The Grand Jury of A bboville, at the
recent term of Court for that County,
recommended the restoration of tho
whipping post. The Greenville News
and Abbeville Medium favor the pro
position, and say it will diminish crime
and as a proof of the assertion, con
trast the amount of clime now with
that previons to the abolition of the
whipping post. We do not believe
the abolition of the whipping post
waa the cause of the increase of crime.
It was, in our opinion, the emancipa%
tion of the negro, and the whipping
post will have no more terrors for
him than the cells of a pison. The
ohain--gang is a better remedy for the
penitentiary convicts, and as for those
confined in jail, the Sheriff should .be
authorised to let them out to work
for responsibl4 parties. This course,
we think, will prove more efficacious
than the restoration of the whipping
- ryone will commend the tone
oftheo Sj* t made by the President
at"iMar Oblo His words were as
nost to the Bou*th as tbey were gener'
,and will And a hearty retsponase in
Trip to Coimbia.
We paid Columbia a short visit last
week, and while there drew for the
County Treasurer $1,455.08, the full
amount of the apportionment of the
State appropriation to tis County for
free school purposes. This is the first
year that the appropriation has been
paid in full in many, and is only an
other striking evidence of the bone
fits of Democratic rule. Besides vis.
iting the office of State Treasurer, we
visited the office of Comptroller Gen
cral and Secretary of State, and al
though, the heads of these depart
monts were not in, wo found their
clerks to be the most courteous and
obliging gentlemen we have met in an i
official capacity, for many a day.
Any information desired, was not only
willingly given, but the officiali put
themselves to trouble to obtain it It
is a source of much gratification to
transact busiiess at the Stato Capital
now, but before the change it was
provoking and disgusting in the ex
trein e.
Columbla was remarkably dull.
There were no strangers in the city,
besides many of the residents were
off on a mountain trip, which caused
the city to havo the appeartanco of a
country town. Wo found ill the
special committees appointed by tho
Legislature in session, and up to their
eyes in business. Tho investigating
committee is still delving down into
the corruptions of the pNast, and prom,
i6es the public in duo time some rich
developments. Tho bond committee
had their coats off and woro hard at
work, with great piles of bonds and
coupons beforo them. They are of
opiAion that they will malie expensos.
The committee to investigato the
conduct and management of the penal
and charitablo instiLutions, were inter
viewing Beverly Nash as to his man,
1gementt of the Orphan Asylum, and
were evidently striking a large mine
of corruption. The old sin ner was
sweating andl squirming under01 thec
pressure. The~ committee to inivesti
gate the affairs of' the CIolmibia canal
wvas also in session, and each comnmits
tee seemed to be doing thir whole
duty thoroughly and fearlessly.
Our Metals and Minerals.
Asbestus, Mica and Garnet has been
discovered in this County, in consd
orablo quantities, an)d an asbestuis
mino, a fewv miles wvest of this plaice,
has recently changed hands with the
prospect of its being wvorked in a short
time. Gold, iron and lead, have been
discovered in small quantities, and
there is scarcely any doubt but what
these valuable metals exist in large
and paying quantLit ies, if properly
worked. Besides these metals and
minerals, we have a fine soil, a health.
ful climate and pure water. No sect ion
of country has been mo(re abundantly
blessed by nature, and all we lack of
boeeoming a wealthy and independent
popJle is the introduction of capital
and the proper kind of immigrants.
Let us have this and Pickens will soon
become the wealthiest and most pros,
porous county in the State.
Since wvriting the above, Captain
Lewis, Clerk of Court, has brought to
our office, sp)ecimens of a bed or mine
of asbostus discovered on Mrs. Laura
Baker's plantation, one milo and a
half from this lace. Tho1 bed is
thought to be inexhaustable, and is
located in a place ensy of access, and
wvhich can be easily wvorked. We are
also informed that Mr. R. K. Pace has1
leased an asbestus bed to Mr'. Thrash.
er, of Central Station, who pr'oposes
to work it right off. There seems to be
quito an excitement about asbestus in
this place at this time, and nearly
every body is prospecting.
A corresp)ondent of the Cincinnati
Enqutirer at Washington writes that
the Louisiana returninig board have
virtually the control of the New Or
leans Customhouse. King, the Collec.
tor, is a mere figure head, white Ans
derson' the special d eputy w ich poweor,
is the collector. WVells commands
-next the surveyorship of the p)ort, and
has a couple ot sons in his employ
drawing government pay. But, al,
though it is a violation of civil setvice
reform ordo-s, Sherman dare not ob
ject, or he wvould have done so long
ago, as the fact has boon reported to
him. Kenner is the real navy officer,
while Le wis holds the commisson.
That fixes three of the four returners,
and all Sherman has got to do now is
to fix Cassnave, whose fidelity to
Sherman and Hayes has nearly made
him a banikrupt. Ho, too, will leave
for Washington in a day or two.

More Light on Dark Deeds.
Niles G. Parker, Treasurer of this
Stato for the first four years of Radi
Dal rule, has in an interview with a
reporter of the New York Wold, made
ai clean breast, and thrown much light
upon the dark deeds of the plunderers.
rhe interview is too long for our
Dolumns, but we give the following
summary from inho World, which
Dovors all the points in the confession:
As the Scuth Carolina legislative

Relief Without a Doctor.
Though we would by no means be under

mending, professional aid in disease, there:are
multitudes of instances when it is neither ne,
cessary or easy to obtain. A family provided
with a comprehensive household specific like
Ilostertter's Stomach Bitters, is possessed of
a medicinal resource adequate to most. emergen
cies in which medical advice would be other
wise needful. That sterling tonic and <or
rective invariably remedies, and is authorita
tively recommended for debility, indigestion,
liver disorder, an irregular habit. of body, uri
nary and uterine troubles, incipient rheuia
tisni and gout, and many other ailments of
frequent occurrence. It. eradicates and pre
vents intermittent and remittent fevers, re
lieves mertal despondency, checks premature
decay, and invigorates the nervous*and mus
cular tissues. Sleep, fdigestion and appetite
are promoted by it, and it is extremely useful
in overcoming the effects of exhaustion and
exposure.
