"Y"? iy NE MAN'S CASH AS GOOD AS ANOTHER'S AT LUDDEN & BATES' outliers Music House i Only House in America Selling 1 ^anos & Organs On the One Price System. J >NE UNIFORM PRIOE to ALL, AND THAT THE LOWEST KNOWN. The usual system of selling Pianos and < Organs is for the dealer to charge any (trice ( he can get for them without regard to either a fair profit or the customer's interest. But ' we are proud to say that this has never been < our method of selling. For the benefit of purchasers and to secure them the full value ot their money, we . estaolished at the outset of our business, twelve years since, ' The One Price System, and to this wo attribute our immense and ] prosperous trade. Selling on this square ( basis renders it imperative that the price be the very lowest one that can be given. We ( are pledged to this. We always have done < it, and we always will do it. It's our creed < and our practice. No oilier Piano nnd Or- j gan House deals on this principle. Our prices, in plain figures, are placed 1 on every instrument. A child can buy as t low as the sharpest trader. All other Houses have "High prices and give discounts." The "One Price" system saves time in trading. And is the only satisfactory way to buyer and seller ; for, on the high price and discount system, even though the customer buys, he is not sure that he has bottom prices. HE WORLD'S BE8T MAKERS.

C In Death not Divider.?About ten days ngo 1 Mr. Jacob House was obliged to take to his bed a at the residence of his sou-in law, Mr. F. K. . Olmstead, on the Island. His faithful wife nursed him carefully, but the task was too gent ? for her and brought on a heart trouble to which she was subject, so that on Wcdnctdiy she was ?i obliged to remain in her bed and Thursday afternoon she died. Last evening her husband followed her. lie was in his scventy-f.fth ycai, " alio in her seventy third. For over fifty-two years they had lived happily together and had anticipated dying very close together ; in fact it was often a theme of conversation with them.? Thursday he sent word to her, saying "Good- g bye." After her death he refused to take any c nourishment or stimulant, closing his lips ngninst what was offered, although the physicians said li that had he taken them he would probably have a rallied.?

A party of deputy United States marshals, b insisting of James Fisher, John E. Gaze, W. D. }, 3ood nnd others, left here yesterday to (exccuto warrants against moonshiners in tho Saluda Mountains.

Hightower is an old moonshiner, tl igainst whom cases are docketed in the United States District Court for trial in August.

The puffs of air cauic up li rough the Gnger-board, which was given ^^^Wtejr'niolion: There wore 600 nflfs to the minute. The light sand was liaken from the finger?board and the heavy *nd dropped into a fa i, like wheat pouring rotn a funning mill. The hcuvy sand was f a bright metallic color, and looked liko rains of galena. "This," said Mr. Krom, sifting it through is fingers, "is chronic ore. It came from 11 estate owned by Patrick Calhoun, a randsou of John C. Calhoun, on the Weserif Maryland Railroad, fourteen miles from Baltimore, It is worth 825 a ton. Calhoun wns 220 acres, containing millions of tons f this sand It yie'ds a minimum of 10 per cnt. of this chrome ore, and by the use of his machine he can uelivcr the ore m Halimore for five dollar per ton." A chemist who was present said the chronate of potash is obtained from this ore by using the ore with potash. It is used for loloriugs and dyes. It gives the permanent ;rcca and yollow colors seen in illuminated testers ard in bank notes. It is in great leuiand iu calico, woollen and carpet uianuactorics. Over. 11,000,000 pounds were mportcd last at a duty of three aud a half ents per pouud. The ore is only found in 'urkcy, llussia, Siberia, California and luiylund. Large quantities ol it are used y the manufacturers of iron aud steel. It nrdens these metals and gives theui great msile power. Chrome steel has been freely sed in the construction of the Brooklyn ridge. The manager of the llrooklyn Steel forks pays th.it the chrouie steel is worth lirec cents a pound more than any other !cel. lie says that it must couie into genral use. The trouble with manufacturers i the future will Ic to find it in deposits ifgc enough to fill the demand, as it is a cry scarce mineral.

Hero are some true and strong words by Canon Fnrrar, of the Church of Kngiand, They tell something of the work of liquor in the mother country. They arc pari of an address delivered in the Shcldoniao Theatre in the University city of Oxford. What is (rue in England is true in our own country?true in its measure in every neighborhood where intoxicating drinks are sold. Canon Farrarsaid : look around me. not here in England ouly, but also through all the world, over dependencies over which the sun never sets, and 1 seethe frightful, the intolerable cvideuces of the devastation wrought by one fatal sin, the sin of drunkenness ; and that -a?itj Tmtr rrnirpwrovr, rav.uutO?<**- luted in intoxicating drinks. I am unable^ I have not the heart to day to touch on onetenth >r one-hundredth part of the proofs which demonstrate to every serious uiiud, [ which is at all acquainted with the facts, the awful importance ol this question.

Track the sub terraucuu ramifications of this evil, and you will see how the whole nation, the whole empire, is undermined ; how every step wo take is over fire ever bursting through the treacherous ashes. ''It is matter, not of assertion, but of sternest demonstration, that the drink traffic causes the most amazing waste of our national resources; that to it are. due, uiaiuIv and almost the worst nbennuicna of pauperism ; that it causes seventylive per cent of th >se melancholy cases of domestic ruin which fill our police courts ; that it contributes enormously, both directly and indirectly, to the hideous social evil that bet for it, on the tostiinmy of nearly every judge on the bench, crimes of violence would well nigh disappear ; that it is the cuusc, both directly and indirectly, of a most terrible mortality : that it chokes onr prisons, in ad housrs and penitentiaries ; tliat it creates an hereditary taint, which makes life a curse to a stunted population ; that because of it thousands, aye, tens of thousands of miserable men and yet more miserable women, and poor little children, most miserable of all. lead lives of s ich squalor and anguish as only they who have witnessed can conceive; that it devastates the humanity, and blights the bodies and the souls, not only of 000,000 drunkards, but of the millions which their, ruin drags down to shauiu; that it frustrate our religious efforts at home that it destroys and ruins our mission efforts abroad; that it is the chief bane and ruiu of our homes ; that is the darkest stain on the glory and the prosperity of our nation.

A Florida Colony.?The sal j of 40,000 acres of land in Florida effected by Mr. A. 15. Liudermanof Philadelphia, during a recent trip to london, to a syndicate 01 that city, was fully consummated Tuesday by the payment of th Florida Laud and improvement Company, the owners of the land. The land is in Orange Couuty, and the syndicate is composed oflcading llri'ish capitalists. The plan of the company to effect a colonization of their lands is comprehensive and rather utiiquc. The whole tract will be divided by General Manager Linderman into twenty acre farms, upon each of which a frame dwelling house will be erected At least two acres on each fractwill be cleared by the company. The farms will be sold to emigrants at 8500 each, which will include all improvements made by the company. The payments may be made in easy annual installments. A strong effort will be made to induce Italian emigration. for the purpose of introducing in Florida the growth of the silk worm.

Don't Speculate ?In spite of repeated warning; in spite of wrecked lives nnd ruined reputations ; in spite of honor and love nnd fair name generally ; in spite of nil those eloquent, though voiceless emotions, hopes, apira'ions and endearments that go to make life really worth the living, thousands an- to day riding the car of speculation to the devil! They never stop to th'.uk until disgrace and prison., exile or poverty, stare them in the face, and thev pass b.:yond the pale of public uicrcy?outcast alike from God and honorable mankind. Oil this subject the Philadelphia Times throws out a few homely words which con* tain a world of truth, and suggest tho road ? e j ,. n?i ?..:x. - * ?* - .f ? . speculation. Says the Times : ' \Ve have lately had a flood of embezzlements and other forms of theft, and it has been tho sauic story in every case. Tiustcd cashiers and others charged with the money ot their neighbors, speculated and lost it. "In nineteen cases out of tweuty no crime was intended. Ilad tlic thought of theft occurred to the parties who proved to bo criminals, they would have shuddered and recoiled from themselves ; but they lost thei r own money; they borrowed without leave to make new vcuturcs, and ended as ou.bczzlers and thieves. "Most of tlic scores of uicn who have lately startled the country by their embezzling, were citizens of unblemished reputations, commanding the unbounded confidence of their respective communities ; but the inordinate ninWiuu ?> , ' in style ; to give their children the hollow respectability offortuue, and to gain tbo mocking homage of fools and hypocrites, made them ventures tep by step, until detected crime and iuelfaceablc shame logically followed. "Don't speculate. Not one in a thousand of those who attempt to win fortune by speculative gambling has profited by it; and many who have not been brokeu in fortune have wasted what isol grater value than gold ?honest industry.

Let no father or mother, sister or brother ever presume to come between you two, or to share your joys and sorrows that belong to you two alone. Build your quiet world, not allowing your dearest earthly friend to be the confidant of ought that concerns your domestic happiness. Let moments of alienation, if they oeccur, be healed at once.
