THE BETINEJE D. F. BUDLEY. Pditor. PIO~ENS 0. 11., S. C: 0 Thursday, October 11, 1877. No Court. In consequonceo of the appointment of J4go Northrop U. S. District At. tornoy, who was holding the Courts on allT5 Clt,'tbeftTW Mco6ft at this placo at the .regular time o holding it, bext Moiday/f The bar a this place forwarded a petition t .hidt I ustieVi1lai-d, aiiking him to assign tnothor Judge, *ho might not ,be engaged to this Circuit. The Chief Justice was absent at tho North, and the petition ouill not bo laid boore. him. When the Legislaturo - meets and elects a Judge in placo of North rop, it is probable that ho will at onceo proceed to hold the Courts in this Circuit; otherwiso we will have to wait until the spring toim. A Presidential Ticket. -It ii suggested by some sentimen. tal people to i'un Rayes and Hamp ton for Presidenb tnd Vico-President in 1880. The. Uampton part of the arangement will do very well, but as to Hayes--woll we'd rather tako ours straight. Like thu Louisv*ille Courier Journal, wo will whirl our cap in the air and huzza for IHayes' policy, but vote the I)emocratic ticket every Gimo. State Fair. The premium list of tho Stato Ag rioultural and Mechanical Society, to be held at Columbia, S. C., bogining on Tuesday morning, November 13th 1877, and ending Friday morning, November 16th, has boon received. The list is full and completo. Let our farmers do all thoy can to inalco the fair a complete success. Persons in tending to become cxhibitors are dos sired to forward their entries to the Secretary, Thomas \V. Ilollatway, Columbia, S. C. whose office wvill be opened, at Columbia, on Friday, the 9th of Novemnber. Past School Claims. Rev. G. WV. Singleton, School Corn missioner of this County, has received the following from the Stato Superin tendent of Eduuation, in reference to the payment of past school claims, which explains itsclf: "Under the act to provido for the payment of past duo school chd~ms, approved March 3, 1874, no past duo claims can be paid, except such as ho, came due prior to the first of Novem, her, 1873. If, after paying theso claims, a balance of the proceeds of the poll tax -rmains on hand, it should be applied to the claims of the present flacal year. In my opinion, no teach, ers claims can bo paid that have not been approved by the trustees. All pay certificates issued to teachers must be in accordance wvith the pro visions of sootion 44, of the School law." Pay Up. Weo have indulged many of our sub. scribers from year to year under the impression that they were good, and would pay in the fall when they' had gathered their crops. Years have rolled around, and to our repeatn~d calls for pay they have not responded. We can not afford to furnish thoem a paper lon)gor without pay for it, and to all such, we give fair notice, that unless they come forward and pay up, their paper will be discontinued.I It is only by din t of hard work and closo economy that we aro enabled to live and furnish the County a papor WVo are not able to give it away, and if we wore, it would not be just to our paying subscribers to do so; and after all those who are in arcars have had ample time to get out their crops, we shall discontinue their paper unless they come forward and settle. We have determined upon thin courso, and shall carry it out strictly, aind after this, all who read our paper~ will pay for it, unless they borrow it frm otheirs. lHon. M. P. O'Conner, the Domo cratic candidate in the 2nd Congres sional District, which embraces the city of Charleston, wili contest the seat of Cain, his nogro opponen t, whena CJongross assembles. We think, from ourt knowledge of frauds in Charleston County, developed before the Legisla, tuio during the investigation .as to the right ef the Mackey delegation to their sets in the House, that Mr. O'Conr should be seated; but if he g nvg1e a a Voton Nilrket. Th" Greenvillo News.of the 6th i nata4 Bays: 4estorday was ia lively ay alton<r merchants atnd , cotton buyors. The cotton oaleo foot up in Round numbers 800 bales, hich wait brought to market by farmers from the ocunties of Greenville, Laureis, Abbevide, Anderson, Ocois-.e and Pickens, and two bales from Edge. field." l the saito issue, in another place, &hee.4ewsagr -expres much surprise at the high prico paid for cott.n in Greenvillo, but if they would examine sclosely, they would easily soo that It is but the natural effet of,.ertain causes, which com bine to make Greenv.llc the best cot ton market. in the State, outsido of Charleston." This iA vertatinly trite, and if Green villo had a sagacious, energetic set of m11erchliits, her trade vould 8001) doublo, and the city wculd conse quently expand to double its presetit pro portionls. Look at the county pa, pers, published in the counties ft oml whence this cotton comes, and how miniy advertisenents ot the Grcen villo merchants do you see in cither. Look at the SENTINEL for instance. There only appears t.no advertisement of three of the business fi rms in Green villo in our col* 11uls, and not less than one hl1 of the citizMs of this County trade at, Greonvillo. We very "easily see that it is but the natural effect of' certain causes which combino to nako Greenvillo the best cotton market, in the State, outsido of Char loston." It is not the liberality of her merchants in advertising wiicl makes her so, "but the natural effects of certain causes." Remove these causes, anr.d Greenville with her pre sent, merchants and business men, with a few honorablo exceptions, would soon become a little one horse town. Nothing would bo casier than for' the merchants of Greenville to soon double their trade and make t.hemnolves fortu nes by advert ising liberally in the County patpers from wvhich they expect, to draw their trade. Where only one halt the citi zona of' this Cout y, 01r perhatps not, so many are trading at Greenville now, two-thirds or th ree-f'ourths of them might be induced to trade thiere if the merchants would only ask themi to do so throngh ourl columlns, an md adviso them of w hat they had and advantages offered. It G reenvillo wa1s filled up with sutchl business men as Messrs. Wilkins, Williamis & Co., Hlovey & Townes, atnd Var'dry Me Bee, her population and wealthi w ith in t,'vo years would be doubled These gentlemeu aIpprteciato th)e benefits of printer's ink, and are not twvo picay unmish to uso0 it.

A meJi'T mnt w ho is too stingy to advertise, and stands upon the streets and dIrumis for ents.. tom) will never succeed. The11 peopl)1 will believe that their stores or shops are only eatch pen nice, and th)ey will be sure to avoid them, arid patronize the man or men who advertite through the paporaI'.

Patterson was airrested inm Washing. ton on the Gth inst., and1( carried be fore Judge Hutinmhey8, on a writ of habeas corpusI, stued oIt by htis coun, sei. The Judge postponed a hoatring of the caso ttntil the 17th inst, which is after' the assembling of Congres~s. and no doubt it was thought tthat by this cours~e Patterson could ho shield- I d by the Radical mfajority in the t senato. lie was bhiled for his ap.. oar'ance before Judge Hlumphroys in e ho sum of *2.500.

VEGETINE For Bilious. Remitent, and in temitent Fever. Or what is more commonly termed Fever and Ague, with pain in the loins and through the back, and indescribable chilly sensation down the spine, an irresisible disposition to yawn1, pain in the eyes, which is increased by mov ing them, a blue tinge ii the ikin, and great listlessnebs and debility, VLOETINE is a safe and positive remedy. It is compounded ex clusively froi taie juices of carefully select.Ed barks and herbs, antgso stronly coiceutrate4 that it is one of the greatest 'leln*evs of the blood thiat is or can be put together. VE CETINE does not siop with breaking Chills and Fever, but it extends its wonderful in fluence into every part of the human system, ayd entirely eradientes every taint of disease. V egetine does not at t. as a powerful cat hartic, or debilitate the bowels and cause the patient to dread other serious complaints which must inevitably follow; but it strikes at the root of disease by purifying the blood, restores the liver and kidneys to healthy action, regulates the bowels, and assists Nature in performing all the duties that devolve upon her. Thousands of invalids are suffering to day from the effects ot powerful purgative nos trums,'frightful quantities of quinine, and poison doses of arsenic, neither of which ever have, or ever could, reach the true cause of their complaint.. Vegetine works in the bumin system in perfect bar. mony with nature's laws, and while it is pleas ant to the taste, genial, to the stomach, and mild in its influence on the bowels, it is ab solute in its action on disease, and is not a vile, nauseous Bitters, purging the invalid into false hope that they are being cured - VEOETINI is a purely Vegetable Medicine, compounded upon-scientific principles It is indorsed by the best physicians where its virtues have been tested. is recommended only where medicine is needed, and is not a mixture of cheap whiskey sold under the cloak of Bitters. GIVES, HEALTI1,STRENGTH & APPETITE My daughter has received great benefit. from the use of Vegetine. Her declining healt h was a source of great anxiety to all of her triends. A few bottles of the Vegetine re stored her health, strength. and appetite. N. II. TILDEN,. Insurance and Real Estate Agent No. 49 Sears Building. Boston, Mass. Vegetile. POLICE TESTIMONY. BOsTON, November 18, 1877. II. R. STEVENs, Esq.-Dear Sir: During the past five years I have had ampie oppor tunity to judge of the merits of VEUETINE.-. My wife has used it for complaints attending a lady of delicate health, with r mre henhC., cial results than anything else which se ever tried. I have given it to my childron under almost, every circunmstance at tending a large tamily, and always with miarked bene fit. I have taken it myself with such great benefit that 1 cannot find words to ex press my unqutalitled appreciation of its goodnesn. While performing my dut ies as a Police Officer in this city, it has been my lot to fall in with a great deal of sickness. I unhesi tatinigly recommend VEGET1IN E, and 1 never knew of a case where it did no,t prove all t hat was claimed for it. Particularly in cases of debilitated or impoverished st at e of the blood, its effects are really wonderful; and, fo)r aill conmplaints'arising from an impure state of the blood, i t appears to work like a charm; and 1 do not believe there are any cirercm stances uder which Vegetine c.rn ho used with injurio us results; arnd it will always aif ford mec ph-asvire to give any further inifor, miation as to what I know about Vegetine., WILLIAM 11, hilLL, Polico Station 4.
