This gen'leman sought Aiken three years ago tor the benefit of his health after having tried various other pla ces. He became so favorably im pressed with tlie climate and the so cial attention he received that lie con tinued to visit Aiken each year, and lasl .September his father Dr. O. Ji. Gause, a distinguished professor, of more than twenty years standing in Hainieumnii Medical College Phila delphia moved to Aiken with Ids en tire family, consistingof Ids wife, his invalid dou and two daughters, he having first resigned his professorship nnd medical practice ami determined to make Aiken ids permanent home. Since the dim of July Dr. Perry O. B. Gause has been an intense sufferer from a lung trouble originally brought on by a case of pneumonia. Every attention which love and medical j ingenuity could devise was lavished upon this gifted young mail, who j bore his sufferings with a pa- | tience and fortitude which en-! lisfed the sympathies of all hisj attendants. Bui medical skill ami | loving attention had done their ing to reach the Court-house in time to eatcli tlie crowd after the public sales. Now tlie editor of the Journo! <io<l Her tow ami Ids bosses may as well understand right here, that there is one farmer, at least, in Aiken County on whom they can pile their idirule to their hearts content if it will make Ids journal more spicy, for (lie object of Ids ridicule is known of all the old men of the county, for he was their comrade in arms in tin- great war for Southern independence; ad the young men of the countv know him and trust hint because he counselled with them at every town, village and cross roads of the county nthe dark days of ’70, when Da homcaii rule backed up by tlie un scrupulous car; et hugger ami ::ativ« harpies was o e.-thrown, and tin civilization of the Cavalier and tln- Hugenor held sway again in tlie Pal metto State. Now surely, one who ias been tin humble actor in so much that belongs to tlie domain of hi-torv cannot fear gag iaw at the hands oi the editor of the Journal and Jircien and his bosses. Tht farmers are coming; for whib j we do not vvi-li a paternal govern ment we desire and will have every , benefit to hi derived from patriotic’ j unbiassed and intelligent legislation. | The property ot the State is not halt j assessed ami that half not equitably; | uni the revenues of the S.ate are absorbed bv a lot of useless'ottiei Is; j 1 system copied after some Northern •state of ten 1 imes our population and t hundred times our wealth. The domain of the Stale, acquired by lorfieiture and otherwise, annuut- mg to !-;]() of the S'-tte must be made to bare its proportion of Ute burden of taxation. Manufactures must be encouraged; if the (>00,000 bales of cotton we pro- luce or one half of it could be rn tnu- 1 act tired at home, giving us a uome market not only for our cotton,hut for .11 other farm produce,in a decade the •State would double its wealth ami >npulutinii. Every hale of codon o. raw material shipped out of the State conti ibuies doubleor trebble its worth in its raw state to some other com munity. That incubus on the agricultural interest, the lieu law must he abol- ishqjljthe damage sustained by the periodical visits of the Rocky moun tain locusts on the western plains,nor the Egyptian locusts in the Nile val ley, never could inflict the injury on those countries that this pernicious legislation has on ours. The states manship that tolerates it is about equivalent to that which created it. Now what of the Judiciary ? What of that s l ies of letters fiom the pen of that learned jurist, who lias grown gray in die ooi-vie'-* i 1 Keen lie did' not point out all of its defects. Now in a country wherein there exists only one political party, it is only natural that rings, cliques am’ hossism should ' mid sway to tlie detriment of the public interest and it is high time that tlie fanners should dare t<> think ami clamor and even act for them selves. Now the foregoing is only a few of the griev ances tiiat must be remedied a* once or the political equanimity of the Journal and Hrview and his little bosses will be frequently disturbed, m>t that we love Ctesar less hut our welfare more. We have no desire to go into pol ities its we have been so persistently warned not lodo; in fact as vehement ly as one would warn small children not to plhy with edged tools, but we are coming, ami unless the donolhing policy of iheeditor of the Journal and il< vi< tr and his pretty little bosses is not soon changed into enlightened statesmanship we will be certain to use the tools and some nice little bosses may find their nice lit'le polit ical scheme sadly mutilated.

An hour's ntday waiting for the doctor may be attended with serious consequences, espccialiy in cases of Croup. Pneumonia, and other throat aud lung troubles. Hence, no family should be without a bottle of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, which has proved itself, in thousands of* cases, the Lest Emergeney Medicine ever discovered. It gives prompt relief ami prepares the way for a thorough cure, which is certain to be effected by its continued use. S. II. Latimer, M. P., Mb Vernon, Ga., says: “ I have found Ayer's Cherry Pectoral a perfect cure for Croup in ail cases. I have known the worst cases relieved in a very short time by its use; ami I advise all families to use it in sud den emergencies, for coughs, croup, Ac.” A. J. Eidson, M. f>., Middletown, Tenn., says: “ I have used Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral with the best effect in Miy practice. This wonderful prepara tion once saved nty life. I had a con- slant cough, night sweats, was greatly reduced in tlcsh, and given up by my ]>h\sichtu. One bottle and a half of the Pectoral cured me.” '• I cannot say enough in praise of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,” writes E. Bragdon, of Palestine, Texas, ‘’believ ing as I do that, but for its use, I should long since have died.” * Ayer’s Gheny Pectoral, PRKPAKKD nr Dr. J. C. Ayer & Bold tiyall Druggist*. n NOTICE.

Spring is like a shy maiden, 1 “Standing, witli reluctant feet, : Where tlie brook and river meet.” ^Summer is like a bride covered with .orange-blossoms, suggesting hap piness and deep content. Autumn, Iwith its russet lines and seer leaves find sad premonitions, strikingly sug gests life’s decline. Winter, with frosty brow and white head, illus- jtrates the “last scene of all” in Life’s “strange eventful history” when j^desire has fled, and the end slowly '“but surely approaches. But the ap parent death of Nature is only a pre- • paration for a fresh toilet. Her youth |is constantly renewed. Her garments are new fresh and beautiful; and if the colors seem to fade for a moment, is only that we may lie the more tonished aud delighted when she > irsts upon us in her new spring rcss TFe have not the same power of renewal; but Art is a great lienefac tor, We can be renewed externally.
