LETTER FROM CHESTER. Chester, December 10, 1877. Edward Weaver was lodged in jail on last Wednesday morning, charged with stealing from Mr. Sample Alexander a watch and $25. The theft was perpetrated the Saturday or Sunday previous, and was followed by the immediate departure of Weaver for Colura^ bia. There be was found by Mr. C. H. Alexander, and by him, with the assistance of the chief of police, Mr. Radcliffe, arrested and placed in the jail of that city. He at first declared his iguorance of the charge alleged against him; he had not taken the watch, and knew nothing of its whereabouts. However, when the chief of police was about to adopt proper, though harsh, measures for the discovery of this fact, he quickly told where it was. Though the watch was quite valuable, he had pawned it to the proprietor of a jewelry" store for the small sum of five dollars. Mr. Alexander obtained the watch, and brought his prisoner here, and placed him in jail, as already stated. The stolen money was spent before its recovery could be effected. On Wednesday night, his friend, "cheap John," as he is generally called, from the exceedingly low prices at which he sells and auction his goods, advanced him $50. As this was sufficient to cover all expenses incurred in obtaining the stolen watch, Weaver was released, and left on the night train for parts unknown, a wiser, if not a happier man. An inquest was held on last Tuesday over the dead body of J. L. Anderson, who died very suddenly the night previous from the ef" feet of injuries occasioned by a fall. The verdict of tbe jury was tnat ms aeatn resulted from a fracture of the skull. The uufurtunate deceased was a native of Teunessee, and had lived in this county only a short time. He was intoxicated at the time of his death. 2,062 bales of cotton were shipped from this place on the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad, during the month of November. 1,480 bales were shipped from this place on the Chester and Lenoir Railroad during the same month. As compared with the shipments of the previous month, these amounts show a considerable falling off. This is due to the fart that during the month of October alargeamouut of cotton was sold to pay for guano and provision supplies. These obligations having been cancelled, the farmers have taken their own time about bringing their cotton to market. Moreover, the decline in price has doubtless occasioned a holding of the staple for a time. Judge T.J. Mackey returned home last r*~ week, after an abseuce of several weeks in Washington, where he was employed chiefly in helping General Butler to obtain his seat in the United States Senate. He gives a glowing account of the bitter struggle that ended so triumphantly for South Carolina's Senator. His account of Corbin's appear aDce at the time Butler was sworn in as a ! member of the Senate, is equally glowing. Judge Mackey made an able argument be-! fore the Senate committee on privileges and ; elections in reference to Butler's rigbt to a seat in the Senate. It has been published in ; pamphlet form, and its merits will command ; general recognition. After staying here a day or so, he went to Columbia, where he was engaged in urging upon Governor Hampton and others in authority, the adoption of the policy of pardoning certain criminals in the State in return for a general amnesty, to be issued by President Hayes, to those in the State convicted or charged with violating United States laws. If an arrangement of j this kind is agreed upon, the poor fellows, ! who are still in Albany penitentiary for ku kluxing, will be liberated. And prosecutions against those known as the Ellenton prisoners, will be dropped. Good results might flow from the carrying out of a policy of this kind. Any way, in this piping time of peace and reconciliation, it might be tried. Dr. David Lyles, late of Lewisville, in this county, and Dr. VV. G. Campbell, late of Mecklenburg county, N. C., have become citizens of our town. I hope they will find their change of residence both pleasant and profitable. . . , ' . ; Rev. G. A. Trenholm preached two excellent sermons on yesterday. In the morning he spoke of the duties and qualifications of deacons; in the evening his discourse was founded upon the text, "Pardon mine iniquity, for it is great," and was an earnest appeal to the unconverted to repent of their sins. The Greenville Presbyterian Church is desirous of securing the ministerial services of Mr. Trenhnlm hut it is to be honed that every effort will be made to keep him here for several years. If his life is spared, there is very little doubt of his eventually filling the pulpit of some city church. Mr. W. H. Crain is reerecting the building at Lewis' Turnout that was recently prostrated by an explosion of gun powder. The greater part of the old material is available for building purposes. The perpetrator of the base act is still unknown. Qui. Jfmantial anb Comnurrial. YORKVILLE, December 12.?Cotton?from 9 to 10.40. Sales for the week, 332 bales. LIVERPOOL, December 10.?Cotton firm.

' Foutz's Horse and Cattle Powders Are renowned the world over for preventing and curing disease?it is, therefore, unnecessary to give them any further recommendation. Farmers and stock owners should more fully acquaint themselves with their merits by actual experiments on their stock. If they will give the Powders to one animal for a short time and note the improvement in its condition, they will appreciate them as they deserve, and use them accordingly. For sale by JOHN C. KUYKENDAL. A Gentle Hint. In our style of climate, with its sudden changes of temperature?rain, wind and sunshine often intermingled in a single day?it is no wonder that our children, friends and relatives are so frequently taken from us by neglected colds, half the deaths resulting directly from this cause. A bottle of Boschee's German Syrup kept about your home forimmediate use will prevent serious sickness, a large doctor's bill, and perhaps death, by the use of three or four doses. For curing Consumption, Hemorrhages, Pneumonia. Severe Coughs, Croup, or any disease of the Throat or Lungs, its success is simply wonderful, as your druggist will tell you. German Syrup is now sold in every town and village on this continent. Sample bottles for trial. 10c.; regular size, 75c. December 13 42 eawjy A Very Good Reason. The reason why only one sample bottle of Merrei.l's Hepatine for the Liver will be sold to the same person, for ten cents, by our Druggist, JOHN C. KUYKENDAL, is because of the enormous expense of importing the Hepatine in to this country ; but as there are nity noses in me large size bottles, it seems two cents per dose is cheap enough after all for a medicine that cures dyspepsia and liver complaint. All who have not had a sample bottle are entitled to one for ten cents, at JOHN C. KUYKENDAL'S Drug Store. Three doses relieve any case of dyspepsia, constipation, indigestion, or liver complaint in the world. Regular size bottles, fifty doses, $1.00. September 20 38 eawly HYMENEAL.

P. HERN DON, a question hard to solve. We have sold goods to parties who promised faithfully to pay by November 1st, and the time is gone, and no pay yet. It is not right for a man to make promises and not fulfill his word unless he had a good excuse. And some would think it hard to be refused credit. The reason they are refused is that they do not perform their part of the contract. We have done our duty by you, and now we ask you to do yours by us. Your promises do not pay for goods in Northern cities, and how are we to keep up? Interest is running and some, do not like to pay it. But still they will let it accumulate, and "make their notes larger. Those who havedone their duty, as men should do, we thank; and will be very thankful to those who do theirs in the future. We only ask for our kindness to be reciprocated in Gold, Silver, Greenbacks, or Cotton at a good price. We will give a good price for Cotton to those owing us, and pay them the balance in money, should the Cotton overpay their note or account.
