Another fine rain on Monday afternoon. Weather now clear. Thermometer down to 90. The session at King's Mountain Military School opened on the 1st instant with about thirty cadets. Make free use of unslaked lime about your premises and in various places in your dwellings, as it is a wonderful absorbent of foul air. Yesterday was the time appointed for the meeting of the State Republican Convention at Columbia. We have received no news of the proceedings. Mr. J. H. Hoffman, proprietor of Rough and Ready Mills, has presented us with a sack of flour of his manufacture, which is of superior quality and sustains the well-deserved reputation of his mills. Mr. Jas. A. Hogue reports to us that on the 27th ultimo, he killed a rattlesnake, which was found under his hearthstone. The snake was over four feet in length and had sixteen rattles. Dr. J. B. Good of Bullock's Creek township, has shown us an open cotton boll taken from his field on the 1st instant. The Doctor reports the crops in his section as being forward and never more promising. A note from Lt. Geo. D. Wallace, of the Seventh Cavalry, announces that he had safely reached his command, and on the 25th ultimo his regiment was ordered from camp to the Black Hills. Lieut. Wallace is with the command having charge of a number of Cheyenne Indian prisoners who are being removed to the Black Hill region from Fort Lincoln. The picnic near air. nenry jnassey s residence last Friday, is represented as having lieen a very pleasant affair. Speeches, in a happy strain, were made by Mr. S. D. Barron, Mr. Strait and Mr. John McNeel. Every thing passed off pleasantly. An interesting account of the day is unavoidably crowded out of our columns. Mr. D. M. Hall presented us with some fine sweet potatoes last Tuesday, of this year's growth, which is quite early for that favorite esculent, though he says he has been taking them from his patch for the past month. Some of these were very fine?of the Southern Queen variety?and measured 11 inches in circumference. SUPREME COURT DECISION. The Supreme Court has affirmed the judgment of the court below in the case of Mrs. Eliza A. Neely and others against the Intendant and Wardens of the town of Yorkville. -Opinion by Mclver, A. J. This is an action brought the 20th of August, \\\\\\\\\\\\ wwwwwwwnv 1875, for the recovery of a balance due on a bond executed by the corporate authorities of the town of Yorkville to Waterhouse & Bowes for lamp-posts and fixtures used in lighting the streets of Yorkville with gas. The following is the decision of the Circuit Judge rendered December 12, 1876: The plaintiff is the innooent purchaser and holder of the bond. By an act of the Legislature, passed in 1800, (see page 920, \ 19,) the Town Council are authorized to make oontracts for lighting the streets of the town with gas, either by subscribing to the stock of any partnership or corporation organized for said purpose, or otherwise. The bond was executed on the 4th of June, 1861. and in the body of the instrument it is recited that "this bond is issued in pursuance of power vested in said Town Council to make contracts for lighting the streets of the said town of Yorkville with fas, and is intended, acknowledged and delivered as the bond of said Town Council of Yorkville for six hundred dollars, due to said Waterhouse & Bowes, for lamp-posts and fixtures used as aforesaid for lighting the streets of said town." In addition to the authority conferred by the special act of the Legislature, above referred to, the execution of the bond comes within the scope of the general corporate authority of the Council, and especially within the powers oonferred by the fourth section of the charter. See Act, 1849? 11 vol., page 688. The Counoil had the power and the right to make the contract with Waterhouse & Bowes, and to evidence the indebtedness arising therefrom, by executing the bond upon which this action is brought. It is, therefore, ordered and decreed mac me plaintiff have judgment for the sum of ten hundred and forty-one dollars and eighty-five cents, with interest thereon from the second day of A pril, 1876, and costs. T. J. MACKEY, Circuit Judge. From the above decree the town council appealed on grounds which may be briefly stated as follows: Because the Circuit Judge refused to find that the town council of Yorkville had issued more than $5,000 of bonds before the issue of the ones sued on ; (the act limiting the issue to $5,000,) and the defendants claiming that more than that amount had already been executed. Because the town council of Yorkville bad no authority to issue the bonds in suit, so as to bind the corporation of Yorkville. The defendants contended that the only other act authorizing the debt, directed that payment should be made "out of any moneys belonging to such corporation," and not by the issue of bonds. Because the "town of Yorkville," incorporated under the act of 1871, was not liable for a bond issued by the "village of Yorkville," incorporated under the act of 1849. The ground taken by the defendants was, that the first charter was allowed to expire before suit, and that there was no body to sue. Because the bonds were not executed as provided by statute, and were, therefore, not binding on defendants. The bonds were only signed by the clerk of the council. Defendants held that they should have been executed by the members of the council. The case was heard in Columbia, at the November term, 1877. Messrs. Wilson & Wilson for plaintiff; Messrs. J. S. R. Thomson and C. E. Spencer for defendants. Safe, reliable, harmless and cheap, is Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup. Price only 25 cents. Jfmattrial anb Commercial. YORKVILLE, August 7.?Cotton, 9 to 10J.

August 8 32 It Lirer is King* r-> The Liver is the imperial organ of the whole human system, as it controls the life, health and happiness of man. When it is disturbed in its proper action, all kinds of ailments are the natural result. The digaition of food, the movements of the heart and blood, the action of the brain and nervous system, are all immediately connected with the workings of the Liver. It has been successfully proved that Green's August Flower is unequalea in curing all persons afflicted with Dyspepsia or Liver Complaint, and all the numerous symptoms that result from an unhealthy condition of the Liver and Stomach. Sample bottles to try, 10 cents. Positively sold in all towns on the Western Continent. Three doses will prove that it is just what you want. For sale by JOHN C. KUYKENDAL. May 30 22 eawly Good Digestion. "Give us this day our daily bread" and good medicine to digest it, is both reverent and human. The human stomach and liver are fruitful sources of life's comforts ; or, disordered and diseased, they tingle misery along every neryeand through every artery. The man or woman with good digestion see beauty as they walk, and overcome obstacles they meet in the routine of life, where the dyspeptic sees only gloom and stumbles and growls at even imaginary objects. The world needs two or three new kinds of medicine before death can be perfectly abolished; but that many lives have been prolonged, and many sufferers from Liver disease, Dyspepsia, and Headache have been cured by Merrill's Hepatine, is no longer a doubt. It cures Headache in twenty minutes, and there is no question but what it ?s the most wonderful discovery yet made in medical science. Those afflicted with Biliousness and Liver Complaint should use Merrell's Hepatine. It can be had at JOHN C. KUYKENDAL'8.

August 1 31 6t T. M. POBSOy & CO. A GREAT VIOTOBY. A GREAT victory has been achieved by Mr. CASH over Mr. CREDIT. Hundreds of Volun- i teers are flocking to Mr. Cash every month. His prices are so low and his treatment so kind, TREATING EVERY PERSON ALIKE, Selling the poor man, who has only five .cents to < 1 spend, goods just as cheap as the man who has his thousands. Mr. Cash has revolutionized the whole Mercantile trade in this community ; has BROUGHT DOWN THE PRICES Of some things fifty per oent. The first blow on Calico, was a reduction of fifty per cent.?from 7 and Si to 5. cents?and it still remains there; and a great many other goods Mr. Cash has brought down TO LIVING RATES To the consumer. Coates' Cotton was another article that went tumbling down the descent, when Mr. Cash issued his proclamation, from 81 to 61 cents. People are being converted daily by Mr. Cash's low prices and fair dealing, and many are only WAITING THE OPPORTUNITY To present itself, for them to enlist under Mr. Cash's banner. His banner is like Hampton's? seeing that justice is meted out to every man. Mr. Hampton sees that every man has eqnal Fights under his government. Mr. Cash sees that pypry man gets FULL VALUE FOR HIS MONEY, And all classes, both rich and poor, white and black are treated precisely alike in regard to prices. One man's money is just as good as another's with us. THAT IS THE GREAT REASON ; : i Why Mr. Cash is converting so many men, women and children. Yoa can see them on the streets of Yorkville, daily, enquiring for Mr. Cash's Cheap Store, (which is old sharp-nosed Dobson's) where they can buy good CALICOES AT 5 CENTS, r,. ;v ' And many other goods at gristly reduced prices. Just as soon as the old man's pockets begin to jingle with a little chink, yoa will hear the old woman sav. "John, vou said when you got your paws on a little money that you intended to take ME AND THE GALS - . . i i Down to that cheap Cash Store of T. M. Dobson, where, we heard a reliable gentlemen say that, yon could take ten ($10) dollars and bny a cart load of goods?they are so cheap." All we ask of persons . i . . , WANTING GOODS IN OUR LINE >1 M.'IJ Is for them to get credit prices, and then call and get oar cash prices, to be convinced that the Gaah Honse is the place to bay goods. IT 8AVES YOU MONEY. IT SAVES YOU TROUBLE. IT SAVES YOU UNKINP FEELING. IT SAVES YOU FROM LONG ACCOUNTS. IT MAKE8 YOU FEEL HAPPY. IT MAKES YOU LIKE YOUR FELLOW MAN, IT MAKES A MAN FEEL LIKE HE WOULD love to stay a long while on this green earth to enjoy the great benefits and pleasures of baying goods for cash. Come and see us, and we will treat you kindly and do yoa good. T. M. DOBSON <fc CO. i H. F. ADICKE8 & SONS. BARGAINS, BARGAINS, BARGAINS.
