" A corruPt tree," saith the Inspired Vol J\_ unie, "bringeth forth not good fruit." nor can corrupt blood impart health, beauty and good liesh or spirits. "The Blood is the Life," and health eon only be enjoyed in its full perfection where tho blood is kept in a pure and iincorrupted state, hence the necessity of pure 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, Roils, Carbuncles, Sore Eves, Rough Skin, Scurf, Scrofulous Sores and Swellings, Fever Sores, White Swellings, Tumors, Old Sores or Swellings, Syphilitic Atrections of the Skin, Throat and Hones, Ulcers of the Livor, Stomach, Kidneys, Lungs and Uterns. 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. Pemborton's" Compound Extract of Stil lingia, (or Queen's Delight) will positively effect this desideratum, expelling every trace of disease from tho blood and system, and leaving the skin SOFT, PAIR and BEAUTIFUL. For all diseases of the BLOOD, LIVER and KIDNEYS, this Great Vegetable Alterative is without a rival. It will cure any Chronic or Long Standing Disease whoso real or direct cawso is Bad Blood. Rheumatism, Pains in Limbs or Bones, Constitutions Broken Down by Mercurial or other poisons, are all cured by it. For Syphilis, or Syphllictic Taint, there is nothing equal to it. A trial trill prove it. It is :i most useful Spring and Fall Purifier of the Blood. Its safety and innocence have been lolly tested, so that it may be administered to the most tender infant. ?3T" Beware of coun? ter (bits and substitutes.

THE table of Sewing Machine sales for 1S73, show that the sales were as follows: SINGER, - - - 232,441. Wheeler ?fc Wilson, ? - 110,190. Domestic, ... 40,114. Weed, - - - 21,709. Wilson, - - - 21,247. American Button Hole, 14,162. The table shows that sales of the Singer ex? ceed those of any other Company, for the pe? riod named, by the number of 113,20! Machines, or nearly doublo those of any other Company. It may be farther stated that the sales of 1S73, as compared with tiiose of 1S72, show a relatively larger increase, beyond the sales of other makers, than of any other year. For in? stance, in 1S72 we sold 45,000 Machines more than any othor Company, whereas, in 1S73, the sales we're 113,254 Machines in Excess of our Highest Competitor. These figures are all the more remarkable, for the reason that the sales of the principal Companies in 1S73 are less than their sales in 1872; whereas, as has been shown, our sales have largely increased. The account of sales is from sworn returns made to the owners of the Sowing 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. J. B. CLARK ct SOX, Anderson, S. C., Agents for Abbeville, Anderson and Pickeus. J. H.

THIS is a North Carolina invention, and will become to the Cotton Planter what the McCormick Reaper and Mower is to the Western farmer. 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. It was tried on land abounding with the usual number of stumps on my tartn near Fayettcville, N. C. It worked beautifully. There was no clogging or difficulty in passing stumps. It was drawn by one mule." Call at C. A. Reed's and seo and purchase the machine.- Price, ?35 for Chopper, by itself.
