The seed is very pro? lific, and Ito profits may bo learned by the experience of Mr. B. A.

This sold in Augusta at SStf cenia, and tbs se o J sold at tlO per bushel his net profits being from cotton 8189, and from tho seed 8800, or 8485 in all as tbs money result of half a bushel Of seed.

Two MEDICAL SCHOOLS.-Tho Dean and Fa? culty of the Medical College of South Carolina have addressed a petition to the h tato Legislature, the ob? ject <f which is to have the medical department of the *outh Carolina "University abolished. Ihe grounds on which tiley base their petition are briefly as follows; Fir at, that the Medical Hollomo of South Carolina answers all the demands of the State; sec? ond, that the attempt to establish second medical collage must prove a failure herc, at lt bas done in other States; third, that the establishment of a med loll department to the University must injure the Medical College ot South Carolim, which has always been a self-sustaining institution, by bringing it in competition with a school supported by th? taxes drawn from the hard-earned money of the people; fonrth, that such competition fa calculated to lower the dignity of the profession ; fifth, that lt would bo a very largo, aa well ?4 useless expense; sixth, that the plat? adopted by th? medical department at its last session was defective; and seventh, that if the University mast have a medical department, it would be more advantageous, as well aa 1er* expensive, to ?dopt tho Medical College of South Carolina as such. The Chairman snl Faculty of tho University of South Carolin? have mad? a counter petition, In nTLloh they reply to th* arguments set forth by the Dean and Faculty cf the Medrsil Collegs of South karolina. , They claim that tho condition of the Vied leal Ooliege of .?oath Carolin? ls proof enough hat the Stats wants another-that the advantages of ho medical depart mont of tho University over the College aro, that it is situated In a central and healthy ocatton, where the studlea caa be pursued for nine Months in the year. Instead nf only Av? months; that he library of tho Un , verity and other literary ramill? ies are at tts command ; that th? aoadeaalaal achoo!a if the University will always fa nunn students; that he method of examination ?conree a h'gher standard >: graduation, and that lt enables the benftftoiarfoa If tn? f?tate to socaire aa honorab'e and useful pro? fession.

CARSON.-Died, at hor residoneo "Linwood," Sum? ter District, South Oaroltun, on Monday mo uing, November 39,1868, AN Nil', JENNINGS, wife Cap tatu E. SCOTT CAUSON, in tho twenty-third yoar of her agc. Ic ls the mournful privilege of surviving friend? ship to record tho virtues and endearing qualities of those whom we have lovoi and lost. The ev piession ot our grief is not intended to repino against the mysterious decrees of the great Creator, in who MI hands alone arc tho issues ot life and death, but we desire to bow, in sorrowing submis? sion, before the ?rneles of God, and reverently bond in faith where reason fallt? te understand. As run? ning waters to the ocean flow, so it soems natural to om mindB that ago should terminale its labors lu the grave ; but there is a panu of poculiar bitterness in the death of a young and lovoly person, whose beautiful life seamed but scarcely begun, when the chord of it nb lng was snapped. With a heart full of sadness for the afflictive be? reavement which has plunged her family in the deep- si grief and spread a cloud of sorrow over a large circle of sincere friends, it la a mournful pri? vilege to offer a tribute of remembrance- to tho gen? tle and attractive virtues that adorned her character. Naturo had bestowed upon her, with a bountiful hand, many amiable and delightful attributes, which attracted tho touderest lova and at? tachment of her family. The fondest hopes were clustered around her bright and happy life, with many Joyous expectations cf her future wella??, destined, alast to be crush? ed in th? sweet bloom cf ber beaut*; and the dearest anticipations of domestic happiness were blighted ao early in the raorniog of thair Joy. Her kind and gracious manners added a peculiar charm to the pleasure of her presanc-i, and all the hearts at home confessed the swoet iufluoacoof her winning ways. She was ono of those few who seemed to havo been hort, to make others happy. Nature had filled her boort with a fountain of generous love and warm emotions, which endeared her strongly to all her ac? quaintances, and the actions of her life were prompt? ed by the noble impulses of ber mind. As a friend, she was admired, esteemed aad cherished, and as a wife she was most lovely, and her love was reciproca? ted with the most ardent devotion. We forbcarto opeak ot tho profound affliction that wrung her father's heart, or the sharp a?onj that pierced the bosom of her husband. Words are too feoblo to de? scribe these crushing grief*, and wo draw tho veil of I respectful slloncc over their sacred sorrows. The relativos and friends who gathored around ber un? timely grave, deplored their heavy loss in accents of the most heartfelt lamentation, and expressed their high appreciation of her beautiful character in the most touching words of sympathy and praise. They felt that they had lost a Bweet and charming jewel from tho social crown; that a gem of the brightest "rav serene" had be<?n quenched in the darkness of death, and the silver chord had been broken from the harp at home, whore its gentle notes and persuasive sounds would no longer be beard to gladden and oheer them again. But the short and Budden illness that closed ber earthly pilgrimage did not find her un? prepared for thatinavltib'e end which God has ap? pointed for us alL Sho called ber weeping friends around her, and assured them calmly ol her Chris? tian hope, "I have no fear, my trust 1B in G id," and her gentle spirit winged its heavenward flight to Join the angel band around the Eternal Throne. 8he has left two little children, a SOB two years old, and an infant daughter, and a devoted Lusband to la? ment her early death. In the sid solitude of ber rural giavemany human hopea of mrthly happiness | are buried, and the coldness of tbs toaab has closed over a lovely daughter and a beloved wife. Tbe home which her preset c? had brightened and blessed has indeed been lett desolate, but the influ? ence of her gentle virtues an i superior charms will be indellibly impressed upon the hearts of the mourn? ers who now grieve for ber loss. But our sorrow is net without hope. 1 hough grief bas spread a pall of blackness over our desponding minds, yet even from thia terrible affliction lot us derive the com? fort of a Christian faith, that when the garland of our dearest flowers shall fade acd wither in this bleak world of time, redeeming power transplants them to a milder elimo above, where they may bloom and flourish in tho bosom of eternal lova. "Dearest sister, thou host left us, Here thy loss we deeply feel, But 'tis God that bath bereft us, He can all our sorrow heal. "Yet, again, we hon? 12 mw) tb A?. When the day of life is fled, Then in Heaven, with joy to groot thee. Where no farewell tear is shed." MOFFETT.-DWI, on the evenligof the 24th of December, 1869, Mrs. ANNA MO t FETT, relict of the late ANDKKW MOVFETT, of lld-- city, aged seven? ty-four years. "Let us be patient. God bath taken from us, The earthly treasure upon which we leaned, That from the fleeting things that lie around ns, Our clinging hearts should be forever weaned. "These earthly walls must shortly be di unantl-td, These ear! hiv tents be struck by angel hands, But to be built upon a sure foundation. There where our Father's mansion ever stands. "There shall we meet, parent and oht'd, and dearer That earthly love which makes half heaven of borne. There shall we find our treasures a1! awaiting, Where change and death and parting never come." MOI FETT.-Died, on the 18th of December, 1868, GEORGIANA, wife of JOHN R. MOPFKTT, ot thia city, aged 43 years and 14 days. "loy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself; for the Lord shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourn? ing shall be ended.

As a rulo, lt is tinkered too muon, and badly tinkered at that. It ls often calomelized, uarcot'zect, depleted, and oth? erwise misused, when all that it really needs ls a wholesome tome and restorative like HOS I E ITTER'S STOMACH BITTERS to put lt in proper trim and keep it so. Tbe stomach is shamefully maltreated. In the first place, tho food which its juices are in? tended to dissolve, ls to* frequently thrown into it hastily, and In a half-masticated condition, in which state the gastric acid cannot properly act upon it The result is dyspepsia. Thou comes the doctor, and, finding the digestive organs weak and the bow? els inert, he proceeds to weaken and paralyse still more with drastic purgatives. Thes? tenJiug-as they always do-to produce a salutary ohangc, be tells Ibo invalid that medical seioncecan do no m Ote for bim. This, with all due deforence, is a ni iatake one of those mistakes whioh Talleyrand said wore tantamount to orim*s. What tba dyspeptic needs is Invigoration. Strengthen the stomach with HOS TETTER'S BIT 1ER*, and ihe stomach will strength? en every other part of tbe human machino, and make it, In common parlance, as good as new. Upon tho state of the digestion depends, in a roc um re, tho condition of the whole system. Now, the Bi tte.rs are the most admirable tonie known. They consist of the finest vegetable invigoranta and restoratives, Dombined with an un adulte rate ! stimulant. The flyspoptio needs nothing else to effect a cure, except a light, nutritious diet, and a fair amount of exer? cise, ii.voa tn tho absenoe of these last mentioned ftccessories, tho tonio and alterative properties of1 tho prepaialion win wo k wonders, enabling the dyspeptic to digest inferior faro with comparativo ease, and to maintain a goad bablt of body, in spite of the drawbacks of a sedentary occupation.
