PERSONA Ii.
We were recently much gratified by
a call from Mr. JOHN W. SELBY, of thc
newly organized General Commission
house of WILSON & SELBY, of Baltimore.
This house enjoys first class advantage*
for making purchases, and is worthy th?,
?ullcbl confidence.
SALLSUAY.
Monday last, although a cold and
cloudy day, brought a considerable orowd
to Sumter. Tho fall io the price of |
cotton, caused to some extent by the full
of gold, seemed to produoe a somewhat
depressing effect upon our planters. They
have invested heavily io fertilizers, et
prices based upon higher figures for
cotton and gold, and should tho tendency
to par valu3 of ourrency continue, the
margin of difference must increase, as
the price of golton must gradually sett lo
down to a gold basis, ar.d, of course, in?
crease thc difficulties of their situation.
Some property was sold at fair prices.
A building lot, for mercantile purposes,
fronting the Court House, was knocked
down to a Virginia gentleman at $2,200
PAINFUL ACCIDENT.
We regret to learn that Davis Item
bert, (soo of that much beloved citizen
ot Sumter, Jame-? W?. Reuibert) suffer?
ed a severe wound in tho arin, from the
accidental discharge of his gun, while
out shootiug a few days since. Dr.
Thoa. W. Du Bose wus summoned in at?

learn, the wounds are improving, and thc
suffering of the youth much abuted
LYNCHES' CREEK BRIDGES.
Our Lynchburg friends, very natur?
ally, are beginning to manifest some
concern in regard to the bridges across
Lynches' Creek. They endured,
very quietly, muoh inconvenience from
the want ufa bridge at Durant's Cross?
ing, so long as tho taxing power was sus
pended, but they now feel that they should
begin to aee some of the proceeds of their
money expended for county purposes,
and, probably, in no wuy, just now, could
it bc more acceptably applied than in
the direction indicated. We trust%that
'our county commissioners will luke their
'claims into consideration.

S*JL> WC learn, with deop regret and
sympathy, from the Columbia Phanix,
of the death of Mr. PAUL II. B. SHU.
*?ER, formerly a citizen of Columbia.
He served, gallantly, throughout tho
whole war, holding a Lieutenancy in tho
second Regiment of South Carolina
volunteers, losing a leg in battle Re?
cently he had beeu a rosident of Walter
boro; whither he had gone to assist
and succor his bereaved and widowed
"ister, whoso husband, Mr B. F. BRAD
FORD, wa? brutally murdered in his
own store, by oolored soldiers, in thc
spring of 1808. A gallant soldier,
a noblo, generous hearted man, a good
citizen, a devoted brother, and fast
friend, his loss to thoso immediately
?ooneoted with him is heavy iodoed, as
well os to the community in which he
lived.
TH? "R?BAL OAEOLINIAN
Tb? March number of this sterling
monthly is, as usual, promptly before
Us, aud fully sustains it? reputation. It
ba? several particularly noteworthy pa
pere. "Tb? preparation of Lund for
cotton," signed "Low Middling,*" which
we believe ia from the pen of General
Johnson Hagood, of Barnwell, contains
some most timely suggestions, backed
up by the necessary facts aud fig.
ures. "The Premium Cotton Crop," and
"A Method of Planting and Cultivating
Cotton/' sro also worthy of attention io
the same connection, and are timely and
to the point. Some hints on the ''Cul?
tivation of the Castor Bean and Bene" '
for oil, from the pen of Goo. E. P. Al?
exander, suggests another means of di?
versifying our industry. "Poultry
Funning for the South," a beautifully
illustrated article on the best breeds of
Fowls, wilgie interesting and profitable
to all who are fond of eggs and chick?
ens. Articles on Sisal Hemp aud the
cultivation pf the .Banana commend
themselves particularly to Flor.da rea?
ders. The ? ditor's "Suggestive Faots"
should set our peeple to thinking. Wo
hope they will heed the warning the
article embodies-don't negleot every
thing else to plant cotton. We are glad
to see that the publishers have been
fortunate enough to soourc contributions
from that able architect, Alex. Y. Loo,
of Columbia, one of whose excellent de?
signs appenrs in the present number.

WHO IS TO' itt. .v ni Ii i
MR. EDITOR :-I have beeu so sorely
annoyed, for the past six or cigh
months,, by thc failure of my letters to
reach their destination, that I feel cull?
ed upon to mako tho inquiry contained
in the above caption. I have, six times,
forwarded letters to Augusta, and have
reason to believo that none of them
reached that point. I mailed three of
them at Sumter, one of which I had
registered, and thu other three at
Meohanicsville. Five of these letters
were addressed to thc office of thc Ban?
tu, of the South, and the other to a
private gentleman in Augustu, covering
un enclosure lo the sume office. Anoth?
er letter addressed to the office of the
Charleston News, and ono to the editor
of the Columbia Guardian,! feel moral
ly certain, also failed to reach charles?
ton and Columbia. Many private let?
ters mailed at Meohanicsville and
Sumter by me, in courtesy requiring
an answer, have elicited no reply, and
I must think that they went the same
way as the others. Who is to blame?
Postmasters, Muil Agents, or who?
The annoyance is intolerable. If others
suffer as I have done, thc Post Office or
Mnil Agettt system may as well bc
abolished. I do not wish suspicion to
rest on any innocent party, and I call
attention to this matter thus, publicly,
that thc innocent may vindicate them
selves, and the guilty be brought to bay.
A number of thc letters mentioned by
me contained communications for the
pre.??, on all of which full .postage, and
sometimes an excess of postage, was
prepaid. Thc bulk of these letters, muy
have induced the suspicion, that they
contained money. Certain it is, that
not one of these bulky letters has ever
been heard from

MANIPULATED GUANOS.
The Wilcox, Gibbs Sc Co.'s Manipulated
Guano more reliable than any other
manure.
According lo ray experiments this yr ?lr tho

choke. Trum the fact that it is more npplicnblo to

Som? of my nelghbotshavo used pure Peruvinn,

tell mo 'hut mino surpastos theirs. I buliove tho
I'eruviun is better then nnv other whore thc lund
is low and moist, but to tuko land generally thal
is rich or poor, moist or thirsty, stiff or loose, all
together, the Manipulated is more rcliublo than
any other I know. I em confident tho manner
cf applying the manure is 10 put it deep, especial,
ly on thirsty land, and I believo 400 lbs. to the
aer?is the quantity-less, I know, will pay, ns I
have tests of it, but 400 lbs. pays better. Ac?
cording to the seitsnns nnd chanco generally of

THE ?KARON AND ITS DANOKHS,
Th? human body is chiefly compoied of tissues
and fibres a? sensitive in every chang? in tb?
condition of lb? atmosphere as tho most delicate
el oe tro tuc ter, or the quicksilver la a barometer
tube.
* The stomaoh, tho skin, (he nerves, tb? langs,
and th? excretory organs are especially liable to
be affected by these variations, and the best de?
fence against their disastrous tendency is to keep
the digestive n achinery, which feeds and nour?
ishes tn? whole system, in good working order.
If the stomaoh it weak or disordered neither
the blood nor the bile can be In a healthy state,
and upon tb? fitness of these two important fluids
for the office? assigned to them by nature, and
the regularity of their flow, health in a great
mormuro d?pendu.
When tho air is heavily laden with chilling
vapors, as it often is st this season of tho year,
the dlgcstiuo should be an object of peculiar care.
If it is week and languid, the whole physioa'
struoture ?rill be enervated. If it is vigorous, the
entire organisation will be strong to resist the
nutoward aud depressing influonce of a damp and
vitiated atmosphere.
A pure and powerful tonio is therefore espe?
cially nooded as n safeguard against the diseases
most common in the spring, and Hostotter's
Stomach Bitters being the most wholesome aud
potent medicine of the elliss at present known,
a course of it is particularly ndvi.-ahlo at this pe?
riod of tho yoar. The stomach will thereby bo
toned and strengthened, tbe liver and bowels
regulated, tho nervous system braced up, and
nature put in a stntoof active defence against the
miasma which superinduces intermittent aud
remittent fevers, rheumatism, nervous debility,
hondacho, hypochondria and other complaints
which aro apt to assail the untoned and unforti?
fied organisations. The budy is strengthened
without exciting the brain, and consequently
no unpleasant roaction follows its reviving and
renovating oporation. March.
