" A corrupt tree," saith the Inspired Vol J\. nine, "bringeth forth not good fruit." nor can corrupt blood impart health, beauty and good flesh or spirits. "The Blood is the Life," and health cen only bo onjoyed :n its full perfection where the blood is kept in a pure and uncorrupted state, hence the necessity of puro blood, to give health, beauty, buoyant spirits, long life and happiness. AX IMPURE CONDITION of the BLOOD, manifests itself in different forms of diseases, such as Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald-Head, Ring Worms, Pimples, Blotches, Spots, Eruptions, Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, Sore Eyes, Bough Skin, Scurf, Scrofulous Sores and Swellings, Fever Sores, "White Swellings, Tumors, Old Sores or Swellings, Syphilitic Affections of the Skin, Throat and Hones, Ulcers of the Liver, Stomach, Kidneys, Lungs and Uterus. In this condition of things something is needed at once to cleanse the blood, and neutral? ize the insidious poison that BURNS LIKE A TERRIBLE FIRE, As it courses through the veins, sowing seeds of death with every pulastion. Dr. Pemberton's* Compound Extract of Stil lingia, (or Queen's Delight) will positively effect this desideratum, expelling every trace of disease from the blood and system, and leaving the skin SOFT, FAIR and BEAUTIFUL. For all diseases of the BLOOD, LIVER and KIDNEYS, this Great Vegetable Alterative is without a rival. It will euro any Chronic or Long Standing Disease whose rtfcal or direct cause is Bad Blood. Rheumatism, Pains in Limbs or Bones, Constitutions Broken Down by Mercurial or other poisons, arc all cured by it" For Syphilis, or Syphilictic Taint, there is nothing equal to it. A trial will prove it. It is a most useful Spring and Fall Purilior of the Blood. Its safety and innocence have been fully tested, so that it may be administered to the'most tender infant, JEST Beware of coun? terfeits and substitutes.

REED. 40 SINGER VICTORIOUS! Sewing* Machine Sales, 1873. THE table of Sowing Machine sales for 1S73, show that the sales were as follows: SINGER, - - - 232,111. Wheeler & Wilson, - 119,190. Domestie, ... 40,114. Weed, - - - 21,769. Wilson, - - - 21,247. American Button Hole, 14,182. The table shows that sales of the Singer ex? ceed those of any other Company, for the, pe? riod named, by the number of J 13,254 Machines, or nearly double those of any other Company. It may be further stated that the sales of 1873, as compared with those of 1872, show a relatively larger increase, beyond the sales of other makers, than of any other year. For in? stance, in 1872 we sold 45,000 Machines more than any other Company, whereas, in 1873, the sales were 113,204 Machines in Excess of our Highest Competitor. These figures are all t he more remarkable, for the roasou that the sales of the principal Companies in 1873 are less than their sales in it>72; whereas, as has been shown, our .'?ales have largely increased. The account of sales is from sworn returns , made to the owners of the Sewing Machine Patents. It will hardly be denied, that the superiority of the Singer Machines is fully demonstrated. At all events that their popularity in the house? hold is unquestionable. The Singer Manufacturing Company* .1. J5. CLA RK it SOX, Anderson, S. '.'.. Agents for Abbeville, Anderson and Pickcns. D.

Col. McKay, one of North Carolina's best men, says: "Its value to a far? mer can only be appreciated by those who give it a trial. I made a special examination of its work, and pronounce it a thorough .success. It bars both sides of the Cotton at the same time, much better than can be done by the ordinary plow, and chops out the surplus Cotton, leav? ing the hills 12 inches apart, and it thoroughly cleans the Cotton of grass.
