The Universe. *_ Professor Proctor closes bis lecture on "The Star Depths" with the following quotation from Jean Paul Frederick Richter: God called up a man into the vestibule of Heaven, saying: "Come thou hither and see the glory of My house." And to .the servants that stood around His throne He said: "Take him and undress him from the robes of flesh, cleanse his vision and put new breath into his nostrils; v only touch not with any change his hu? man heart?the heart that weeps and trembles." It was done, and with a " mighty angel for his guide, the man stood ready for his infinite voyage; and from the terraces of Heaven, without sound or farewell, at once they wheeled into end? less space. Sometimes, with solemn flight of angel wing, they- fled through Sahara of darkness, through wildernesses " of death that divide the worlds .of life; sometimes they swept along frontiers that were quickening under prophetic motion. Then from a distance that is counted only in Heaven, light dawned for a time through a sleepy film; by unutterable > pace the light swept to them, they, by nnntteramVpace, to the light. In a mo? ment the rushing of planets was upon them.; in a moment the blasting of sans was around them. Then came eternities of twilight that revealed, bnt were not revealed. On the right hand and left towered mighty constellations, that by counter positions, built, up triumphal gates, whose architraves?horizontal, up? right?rested, rose, at altitude, by "spans that seemed ghastly from infinitude. Without measure were the architraves, past number were the archways, beyond memory the gates,. Within were stairs that scaled the^e'temi?eif^Below; above was.belb^belpw/'^aTOve to the man ' 8t?jpj^*?f!g^ was swallowed up In height unsurmountable, height was sV'alloweeJ up in depth un? fathomable. Suddenly, as they thus rode from -infinite to infinite?suddenly, as they thus tilted over abysmal worlds?a migb ty cry arose, that systems more mys? terious, that constellations more glorious, that worlds more billowy, other heights and other depths, were coming, were nearly, were at hand I Then the man sighed and stopped, shuddered and wept. His overburdened heart uttered itself in tears, and he said: . "Angel, I will go no further. For the spirit of man acneth with its infinity. Insufferable is the glory of the universe. Let me lie down in the grave and hide myself from the persecution of the in? finite); for the end there is none." And . from all the listening stars that shone around, issued a choral voice: ''The man speaks truly; end there is none, that even yet we have heard of. And there is none !" The angel solemnly demanded: . "Is there indeed no end, and is this the - sorrow, that kills you?" Buc no voice '?" answered, that he may answer himself. Then the angel throws np his glorious bands toward the Heaven of Heavens, saying: "End there is none in the uni? verse of God. Lo! also, there was no beginning." ? , ?

The population of London is 8,814, 571. In 1871 it was 3,254,000, and in 1861, 2,803,989. It bas thus increased over 1,000,000 in twenty years, or at the rate, of 1.8 per cent, per annum. This is for what is called the' "Metropol? itan district" only. When London counts in its "belt" also, it has a popula? tion of 4,286,607. ? When the excellence of rice as a diet is fully understood its use will be more frequent and of daily occurrence in every household.

Extract from a book of South Amer? ican travels: "Never had those lonely wilds been traversed by human beings, nor did the animals betray the slightest fear at our approach; indeed, on- one occasion, when one of many negroes was paddling with his arm in the water, an alligator swam fearlessly up and bit it off without displaying the least appre? hension." ? A volume of smoke arises constant? ly from the midst of a dense morass in Walkulla county, Florida, and has for at least fifty years been a mystery to the people of that region. The spot is five miles from the nearest point to which any person has ever penetrated. The negroes believe that it is the entrance to hell, and regard it witfc awe. Some of the whites accept the theory of a volcano. Judge White, of Tallahassee, lately or? ganized an expedition to explore the swamp but failed to make way in the tangled rank growth. ? A woman at^ Cape Girardeau, Mis | souri, who had suffered from a husband's neglect, traced him to a bar-room, where he was playing cards with several com? panions. Setting a covered dish she had in her hands down upon the table, she I said: "Presuming, husband, that you were too busy to come home to dinner, I have brought you yours," and departed. With a forced laugh he invited his I friends to dine with him, but on remov? ing the cover from the dish found only a slip of paper, on which was written : "I hope you will enjoy your meal; it is the tame your family nave at home." ? A watch-maker in Newcastle., Penn., says a Pittsburg paper, has com? pleted a Bet of three gold shirt studs, in one of which is a watch that keeps excel? lent time, the dial beingabout three-oighta of an inch in diameter. The three studs are connecled by a strap of silver inside the shirt bosom, and the watch contained in the middle one is wound up by turn? ing the stud above, and the hands are ! set by turning the one below. But per? haps the most remarkable thing about the lilliputian machine is that'it works with a pendulum like a clock, and the pendu? lum will act with ease and accuracy in whatever position the time-piece is placed, even if it be turned upside down. Bitten by a Spider. Mr. Jno. White, of Pickens, living, be? tween Greenville and Easloy Station, was bitten on Friday last, while plowiug in his' field, by a large black "bottle" spider. The spider had gotten inside the quarter of his right shoe, and bit him with vengeance near the ankle. Reach? ing down he caught the insect with his fingers and mashing it, threw it down. In leas than one hour afterwards Mr. White felt the effects of the poison in his back and hips and stomach. He went home and suffered the most awful agony [all night, tho poison of the spider affect? ing his whole body from his bead down, j until he was prostrated. It traveled down his legs, burning like fire, and seems to have settled in his left foot; which is greatly swollen and looks as if an immense boil was forming. He was in the city yesterday being treated by Dr. Glazener, and while still suffering some pain, apprehends no serious results here | after.?QreenviUe News, 4th inst. 1 MEDICINE PURITY IS OF FIRST IMPORTANCE.

T HE above cut represents the HALL SELF-FEEDING COTTON GIN, man? ufactured at Sing Sing, New York, which bas been sold in all [of the above-named Counties, and which has given entire satisfaction wherever used. The saws are made of the best imported steel. The saw shaft is the largest made. An examina? tion of other Gins will convince you it is.the most substantially built Gin in use. It never breaks the roll, and therefc.e does away with the expense of the revolving head, as the secret of making the Gin to prevent its breaking the roll is in the proper shape of the roll-box. It is the only Gin that runs successfully with the Feeder and Condenser attached, and the only Gin that will 'feed yellow cotton. Below I give you a few testimonials and names : Lewis C. Clinkscales, Abbeville; A. J. Stringer, J. V7. Poore, Beltou, W. M. Shirley, S. B. Timms, John D. Kelly, Basil Callaham, and many others : Brewerton P. 0., Laurens Co., August 6,1880. Mr,. John E. Peoples, Anderson, S. C?Sir : The 60-Saw Hall Cotton Gin, Feeder and Condenser we nought of you last Fall is a perfect success in every respect. We run it by steam, and gin 10 bales of 450 lbs. per day with ease. It is the best con? structed and finest finished Gin I ever saw. It gins faster, makes a better sample, and thus far. excels in turnout any Gin ever used in this part of the couotry. This can be proved by all the people who have had cotton ginned by me. We ginned for the public last Fall 600 bales, and give the best satisfaction of all the ginners. The seed being so perfectly clean, it makes a better sample. Further, ft separates from the seed cotton, before going into the roll-box, rocks, grit, nails and matches. There is less danger from fire, owing to the Self-Feeder taking out all hard substan? ces before they come in contact with the saws. The cotton .picked by the Gin the last seasoD was carefully weighed before it was picked and after being baled, and the average yield the seasoa through was 1 lb. of lint for every 2$ lbs. of seed cot* ton. I have used since the war Gins of four different makes. Yours makes a better liut, cleans the seed better, gins much faster, and for its simplicity unsurpassed. I think it is destined, in a great measure, to supersede all others. I heartily recom? mend it to those who wish to purchase Gins. It will more than repay the additional cost. Very respectfully, KNIGHT & BALENTINE. Belton, S. a, May 4,1881. Mr. John E. Peoples, Anderson, S. C?Dear Sir : Your favor of the 30th of April received, and in reply I have to say that after a very late start I ginned 150 bales of cotton on the Hall Self-Feeding Cotton Giu. Everything has worked well, and the whole outfit has given entire satisfaction, both to my customers and myself. * would not think of running a Gin without the Feeder and Condenser. The Feeder does better work than possibly can be done by hand. Both the Feeder and Condenser are indispensable. Yours truly, - JOSEPH D. PINSON. Anderson, S. C, May 7,1881 .?John E. Peoples, Agent Rail's Gin-rSiu : The 40-Saw Hall Gin, made at Sing Sing, N. Y., bought of you last Fall, has given per? fect satisfaction. It cleans the seed well, and makes a superior lint, and runs light. The.Baw Bhaft and saws are the best I ever Baw. L. H. WELBORN. To J. E. Peoples?The 50-Saw Hall Gin, Feeder and Condenser I bought from you last Fall beats any Gin I have ever seen, and I have used and tried four differ? ent kinds. It ntns light,makes a good sample, gins fast, and will surpass any Gin in making a good turnout and in cleaning the seed. Now, if you desire a good Gin, try the Hall Gin, Feeder and Condenser, made at Sing Sing, N. Y. The Feeder and Condenser can't be beat, as the Feeder will feed any kind of cotton? yellow or dog-tail.' ABRAM BOLT. Anderson, S. C, May 18,1881.?John E. Peoples, Anderson, S. C?Dear 8ir : The 60-Saw Hall Gin, Feeder and Condenser, made by Hall S. F. Cotton Gin.Co'., Sing Siog, N. Y.,' bought of you last Fall, has given perfect satisfaction to myself and customers. I have used the Emery, Star aud Needle Gins, and much prefer the Hall to either of them. I ginned last season upwards of 400 bales cotton on the Hall Gin, and during the whole season the Gin, Feeder and Condenser did not give me an hour's delay. I can cheerfully recommend it to any one wishing to purchase' a Gin. I found no difficulty in ginning yellow cotton, as the Feeder feeds yellow | cotton, and takes out all grit and hard substances before it comes in contact with the saws. WM. A. NEAL. Andebso?, S. C, April 30, .1881.?John E. Peoples, Anderson, S. C?Deab Sib : The 80-Saw Hall Gin, Feeder and Condenser, made at Sing Sine, N. Y., bought of you last Fall, beats anything of the loud that I have ever used, and I have used several different makes of Cotton Gins. It is the best Gin in use for durability, lightness of draft, clean? ing the seed perfectly, and never breaks the roll, and gives entire satisfaction to myself j and customers. I was burnt out the 25th of last September, and my customers waited one month on me until-I could get another Hall Gin to gin their cotton. This can be proven by my neighbors. The Feeder and Condenser can't be beat. .1 have ne-er had any trouble with them. Yours truly, M. A. COBB. Piebcetowk, 8. C?Mr. J. E. Peo)>les, Anderson, S. ft.?Deab Sib: The 50-Saw Self Feeding Hall Cotton Gin, with Condenser attached, made at Sing-Sing, N. Y., purchased of yon last Fall has given entire satufaction. It saves the labor of one band, and feeds more regularly than could be done by hand, never breaking the roll for a day at a time i if attended to. I ginned 350 bales last Fall with it, and it is in as good order appearantly I as ever, It makes samples to compete with any other gin. Mr. San ford Martin had a bale ginned on my gin last Fall tkat was pronounced by the Piedmont Manufacturing Company to be the best ever brought to that market. D. H. HAMMOND. Due West, S. C, July 24, 1880.?Mr. J. E. Peoples.?Demi Sib : In answer to your postal I will say that the Hall Self-Feeding Cotton Gin. made at Sing-Siug, N. Y., that I bo ught of you bas given entire satisfaction. I ginned nine bales a day weighing 450 lbs. Ctsans the, seed perfectly and makes a superior sample of lint. I w?n t no better for speed.-. an>d lightness of draft. Only wish I had taken an 80-saw instead of a 60-saw. Yours truly, J. L. HADDON. ? ^lOEasoN, S. C, May 14,1881.? Jno. E. Peoples, Anderson, $. C?The Hall Gin uianu fad aired at Sing-Sing, N. Y.. and purchased of you last season, is the best constructed and finrjst finished gin we have ever used. It runs light, never chokes or breaks the roll, and for sample cannot be excelled by any gin ever used in this section. It has given this ne^ ?hborhood entire satisfaction, and in our opinion is'equal' to or better than any other gin in use to our knowledge, and would advise any one wishing to purchase a good gin t&! ouy the Hall Gin in preference to any other, MARTIN & DUCKWORTH, Williamston, S. C. THE SCHOFIEEI> ENGINE, which has been sold in every section of the Southern States, and which has given such universal satisfaction, will be kept on hand, and sold at prices that will compete with any lirst-class Engine manufactured.

Peoples?Dear Sir; The Schofield Engine pur? chased of you?six-horse power?has given perfect satisfac ion. It is the best Engine I have ever used, and I have used three other different makes. I like it for three reasons. 1st. It is simple and durable. 2nd. It runs smoother and steadier than any Engine in our country. 3rd. It bas more power than any 'Engine made to the number of horse? power. ? I run a 50-Saw Gin and Feeder with 25 lbs. steam, and can recommend tin's En? gine as the one for farmers to buy. J. M. CHAMBLEE. Pieecetowk. S. C?Mr. J. E. Peoples?Dear Sir : The five-horse power Schofield En? gine purchased of you last Fall has given satisfaction.

I am runninga 40-inch Circular Saw Mill, and have sawed as high as MOO icct in one day out of old-field pine logs?logs being very small. It bas more power than any G-horse Engine I ever saw.

PEOPLES, Agent, Anderson, S. C. June 2,1881 47 3m DANIEL PKATT GUN COMPANY GIN, FEEDER and CONDENSER. THIS is the 50th year of the Daniel Pratt Cotton Gin Business, during which time they have manufactured over 22.000 Gins, which are used in every cottton-growing State in the Union, in Mexico, South America, British East Indies, and in almost every other conntry where cotton grown. The Revolving Head placed in the end of the cotton-box prevent the Gin from chok? ing and the roll from breaking. Any common plantation hand being able to feed the Gin satisfactorily. The Feeder is superior to any other machine of the kind in use. They arc simple in construction, and easily managed. They stand upon the floor, and are therefore not so hard to get at. The Condenser is equal to any in use?we believe superior to any now made. The lower end of the cylender being open, all dirt from the lint is driven through the floor by the air from the gin-brush. By the use of this Condense, the lint-room can be entirely done away with, saving many dollars in the construction of buildings, making the labor of handling the cotton before packing far easier, and loss and damage by fire is reduced to a minimum. The Feeder and Condenser will pay for them? selves in one season. Every machine is fully warranted to do perfect work, and until tbe purchaser is fully satisfied with the machine we do not ask for payment. Should any machine prove in any way defective, we make the same good at our expense, upon notice being given to us. We give the names of gentlemen in this and adjoining Coun? ties who have the Dariel Pratt Gins, Feeders and Condensers .in use, and refer the public to them, believing that their recommendation of the machines will be more satisfactory to any one desiring to purchase than the ordinary stereotyped form so common :?

ATENNESSEE Teacher writes: "I had formed an erroneous opinion of the "OueStudy" plan ; but, with your expla? nation, my prejudice vanished :"and now I do not hesitate to. say that, if yours is not the "royal road to learning," it is much bet? ter than the one most generally used. In offering my reasons for liking your plan, I can not do better than refer to those given in your Catalogue." The Fall Session will open Aug. 1. For a Catalogue, address REV. S.

May 2G. 1881 46 _oct28 Cathartic Pills Combine the choicest cathartic principles in medicine, in proportions accurately ad? justed to securo activity, certainty, and uniformity of effect. They arc the result of years of careful study and practical ex? periment, and arc the most effectual rem? edy yet discovered for diseases caused by derangement of the stomach, liver, and bowels, which require prompt and effec? tual treatment. Ayeb's Pills arc spe? cially applicable to this class of diseases. Thoy act directly on the digestive and assimilative processes, and restore regu? lar healthy action. Their extensive use by physicians in their practice, and by all civilized nations, is one of the many proofs of their value as a safe, sure, and perfectly reliable purgative medicine. Being compounded of the concentrated virtues of purely vegetable substances, they arc positively free from calomel or any injurious properties, and can bo administered to children with perfect safety. Ayer's Pills are an effectual cure for Constipation or Costivcness, Indi festion, Dyspepsia. Loss of Appetite, oul Stomach and Breath, Dizzi? ness, Headache, Loss of Memory, Numbness, Biliousness, Jaundice, Rheumatism, Eruptions and Skin Diseases, Dropsy, Tumors, Worms, Neuralgia, Colic, Gripes, Diarrhoea, Dysentery, Gout, Piles, Disorders of the Liver, and all other diseases result? ing from a disordered state of the diges? tive apparatus. As a Dinner Pill they have no equal. While gentle in their action, these Pills are the most thorough and search? ing cathartic that can be employ*!, and never give pain unless the bowels are in? flamed, and then their influence is heal? ing. Thoy stimulate the appetite and digestive organs; they operate to purify and enrich the blood, and impart re? newed health and vigor to the whole system. PREPARED BY DR. J. C.

A Dose of Tarrnnt's Seltzer Aperient Has removed the agony of rheumatism, and Its continued use entirely healed the patient. Rheu? matism is but little understood. Some empirics resort to embrocations, which are really dangerous. It is now acknowledged to be a blood disease, re? sulting from acidity. This aperient corrects all such acidity, and thus cures the disease. All the rheumatic loftcrers are advised to try it. SOLD BY ALL DRUGGISTS._ Tho Farquha? Separate?
