As we noticed at the time, a steamer brought into Charleston, about three weeks since, a considerable number of persons seeking employment, according to engagements, in Edgefield, Newberry, Chester, Abbeville, Anderson, aud a few in Columbia. We have noticed since that others were on their way to Darlington. During the past week, thirty-five Germans have settled at Long Cane, in Abbeville, and about 150 more are expected. Sixteen immigrants, of both sexes, craftsmen, laborers and house servants, arrived at Ninety-Six last week. Very considerable interest is manifested in this matter throughout the country. There is urgent need that they should come and be cordially welcomed. They do well, generally, where they are properly treated, and are of suitable character to be incorporated into our society. Only a day or two ago, we heard of several sturdy Scotchmen, a few miles above Sumter, who have succeeded in purchasing land by their earnings on rented laud, during the last year or two, and are now rapidly improving their property, and setting an example of industry, thrift and correct moral deportment which is having its effect in the neighborhood. By all means, let them be encouraged to come.? Columbia Phoenix. Jinaucial ani) Commercial. YORKVILLE, January 7.?VVehave no change to report in the price of cotton. The receipts have been light.

OVER 30 YEARS. 1873. SINCE TIIK INTRODUCTION OF PERRY DAVIS' PAIN-KILLER, And after thirty years trial, the "PAIN-KILLER" may justly he styled the groat medicine of the world, for there is no region of the globe into which it lias not found its way, and none where it has not been largely and highly prized. More over, there is no climate to which it has not proved itself to be well adapted for the cure of a considerable variety of diseases; it is admirably suited for every rare. It has lost none of its good name by repeated trials, but continues to occupy a prominent position in every medicine chest; and is still receiving the most unqualified testimonials to its virtues, from persons ofthc highest character and responsibility. Physicians of the first respectability recommend it as a most cll'ectual preparation for the extinction of pain. It is not only the best remedy ever known for Bruises, Cuts, Burns, itc., but for Dysentery or Cholera, or any sort of bowel complaint, it is a remedy unsurpassed for efficiency and rapidity of aetion. In the great cities of India and other hot climates, it has bo come uic Ktanuaru Aieuicino ior an sucn complaints, as well as for Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, and other kindred disorders. For Coughs and Colds, Canker, Asthma, and Rheumatic difficulties, it has been proved by the most abundant and convincing testimony to be an invaluable medicine. No article ever attained such unbounded popularity. As an external and internal medicine, the Paiu-Killcr stands unrivalled. Thirty Years are certainly a long enough time to prove the elliciency of any medicine, ami that the PAIX-KILLKR is deserving of all its proprietors claim for it, is amply proved by the nnparalelled popularity it has attained. Itis a souk and kkkkctivk remedy. It is sold in almost every country in the world, and is becoming more anil more popular every year. Its healing properties have been fully tested, all over the world, and it needs only to be known to be prized.
