N 1! AIKEN, B. C., TUESDAY, DEC. 11. MOUTH CA ROI.ilN\ NEWS. STANDS AT THE HEAD. • ^|| [^THryUGHf^ c ^ /!£ 1 DOMESTIC. — The election for MAyor and Alder- mon of. Che.rl«?«ton will take j>5ae<* Ut- day. The Hon W. A. Courtenay, the present Incuml^cnt, haa m ably jx.Tformed the duties of the mayoral ty for the last four years, ami the en tire Democratic ticket, will ho re-elec ted. —Dr. Carver, tdyllng himself cham pion shot of the world, has challenged tire marksmen of Charleston to a trial of skill In two matches, one with the shot gnn and] one with the rifle, for $600 aside or upwards, and pledges himself, If he wins, to give the money to »om« charitable Inetitation. —There tn m faint recollection In the rniode o? er.-roc people of haring seen It narrated eatenslvelv about a week ago that Mr. Randall r s friends were greatly elated at the '‘flop orer'* to hia eide of eereral prominent Southern paper*, and that a genera! break along the lic«9 waa l*»cked for. Vcrhum eap. —Mahone has summoned hi* color ed contingent to meet him at Norfolk December 13 and hold a love feast and conspire together to overthrow hon esty and decency in Virginia. Ma lm ne proposes to stir np the passions of his negroes agalnrt the whites and thus place* himself In the attitude of a disturber of the public peace and of a dangerous Incendiary who should be kicked out of the Federal Senate. —On Tncsdar night at Yemassee, on the Charleston and Savannah Rail way, a white man, name unknown, was rtmover and frightfully mangled by *h» eastern bound passenger train which arrived at Charleston at half { >«pt nine o’clock. Ills head was near- y severed from the trunk and nearly every bone In his body was broken. The T>ial Jupf.foe at Oraharurllle was notified and held an inquest over the remains on Wednesday morning, the result of which Is not yet known. The only thing known at Yemasseo about tho unfortunate man is that had been there all day and had been drinking heavily. He was mther avell dressed but was unknown to any nno in that section. The l\almotto Dost says that an examination of his person showed him to be one Morris, a Northern drummer. Borne parties peem to think that the' unfortunate man had been first raurdfcred and that his remains had been pkiced on the track to hide the crime. —On Saturday In the honso of rej^- rescntatlros the Judiciary committee, through Mr. Himonton, r« js.Ticd fa- vorahly on the petitions for tlie forma tion of the County of Haluda from parts of Edgefield and Lexington counties and introduced a 1-ill to o- tab- iisii that c , >uiifr. Tho committee re ported adversely on the petitions .for tiie formation of thocoumies of But ler, Ninety-six and Dorchester, and ' the consideration of all thes'i county questions was ma<le tho special order mr V. r edncsday next at noon. T!ie re ports of t!ie committee are brief. Tho Butler and Ninety-Fix plans are dis- roved on account or ccnstitiuron- ijectlons, and that of Dorchester for politionl grounds. The arguments In favor of the formation of Saluda county will l»o summarized hereafter, it is very probable that the county will be formed. The ways and menus committee of tho House have decided to recommend an appropriatigt of ten thousand dollars m aid o;dbe Medical College of the State, and this amount will he inserted in the general appropriation bill. The bill to establish a divorce law for this Btate is still under discussion in the Senate. Hon. D. S. Henderson warm ly advocates the bill.

The generally approved way to keep them out was to plug up the keyholes and stop the clacks with cotton. Notwithstanding these preventive measures, the evil things had their own way and often came in as they pleased. s v .. _ So comes malaria nowadays. We try to keep it out of the keyhole and it comes in by the crack? We stop up the crack, and lo! it comes from a leak in the plumbing, or an opening from some neglected drain, or from some unsuspected source and unguarded direction. We cannot always keep malaria out, but we can give it battle and L drive its effects from our systems. If Brown’s Iron Bitters is taken in le, malaria has not a ghost of a chance. This is the great family medi- Your druggist sells it And you ought to keep a bottle in the house. £jQ © I J THE CARPET MARKET! W. H. WELCH.
