The terminus of the completed portion barbeen named 'Pullet Sta? tion,'in honor of 'Chicken' Gunter, one of tbe representatives in the Legislature from Chat? ham County.'* _. _ _ --AU?-TTMuiugion correspondente say that there are four mortgages on the National In? telligencer concern, covering 140,000. The pa? per did not own a cent of real estate. It has been quite profitable, but could not rapport one or two of its proprietors who lived in such princely style as to astonish some of the rich? est men in the Sstrict. -Memphis, Tenn., under Radical rule is not a pleasant place to live in. There hare been forty-three murders and homicides committed in the city and vicinity during the past twelve months. Of the guilty parties none have been punished, and only two convicted and sen? tenced, Tia : Gavin and Moody, who are to be hung on the 20th of August. -Yerger'a confinement seems to be telling on him. His fact are chained and his hands are manacled, and the only glimpse he gets of the world, when h3 is not before the commis? sion, is through a little window at least eight feat high. He said to tho Episcopal clergy? man who visited him Monday, that he is quite ready to die if Mrs. Crane wished it. -Sam Hildebrand, the notorious Missouri outlaw, who had eighty deach-notohea on the butt of his rifle, is reported to hare died of the wound which he recently received when defending himself against an armed posse of sixteen. He had escaped and wandered through tbe brush for some days with a large party in pursuit, but cheated them of the $10.000 reward offered by dying under the hands of a physician. -A negro alderman was present at the Get? tysburg celebration, anl was refused admission to the hotel. Having, daring last winter, waited on a distinguished Oongreeemaa^who was in Gettysburg at the time, he applied to him to use his influence in bis behalf with the hotel man. The representative declined to in? terfere, and the darkey stayed out in the cold. The Mayor of Washington, who was present, did bia beat for the negro, but he failed to ?Ur the landlord. -A bill ba? passed the Senate of Florida in aid of the railroads in that State. It is pro? posed to issue bonds to the amount of $14.000 a mile, to aid in extending the Pensacola and Georgia g md to Mobile, all the bonds to be issued at the same time. The second proposi? tion is for the State to endorse to the extent of $14,000 a mile the bonds of any comp my un? dertaking to build a railro id from Gainesville to Tampa ; the endowed bonds to be issued as section* of five miles are io course of construc? tion. -The loj'.vsmi h who picked the lock on tho outer door of the Ocean Bank vaults his re? peated he feat, the lock having been set this time at it was on tbe night of the robbery. He was at work, about four hours, and after he hid finished said be would open the lock at any other combination in bj If an hour. 'The bank offers re wai'Lu o' $25,000 for the arrest and final conviction of the robber*, for tbe re? turn of tbe mouey twenty-five per cent of the amount returned, ten per cent, on the price of United States bonds returned, and a liberal percents go on other securities that may be re? turned. -We learn from the Wilmington Journal that a young lad, named Leonilas Beattie Limo, aged thirteen years and nine months, a son of G. W. Lamb. Esq., was struck by light? ning audios tant ly killed, while hun tina; on the beach a? Mvrtle Grove Sound, Saturday after? noon kat. He had crossed over to the "banks" with a little negro about the same age both having gaps tor the parposo o' hunting marsh hens. Wheo the stroke of lightning esme, young Lamb was instantly killod, his clothes scorched partially off and bia body badly burned. The lightning, arter shivering the ?tock of the gan and causing the discharge ef I tue piece, entered the ground. The little negro was so terribly stunned as to be deprived of coaseiousnes3 or 6peech for some time. When he became abie to move, he endeavored to cross the sound, io the boat, to where Mr. Lamb, the father, awaited their return. He wa? too weak to retch the shore, bnt was able to call and inform Mr. Lamb of bi j son's death, hearing which the grief-stricken father crossed over and recovered the body, which had been reached by the tide. He conveyed the little negro home. This boy, at last accounts, was quite ill from the a hook. | -The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Gazette writes : "The news from Cuba is of a mon important character. The Cubans have regained possession of the Cinco Tillas district, while General Jordan has driven the Spaniards from Los Tunas and tbe Puerto del Padre country. The loss of the Spanish forces is reported to have been very large, and the disaffection ID the army and the contests between the volunteers and the regulars have resulted in tho almost complete annihilation of the government forces in those sections of | the island. The attempt of De Bodas to carry out tho policy ot the present Government of Spain- that of 'conciliation and promises' bas had the effect of dividing the volunteers into two factions. These volunteer who have given in their adhesion to the De Bodas Gov ernment, and have surrendered important military positions-forts, arsenals, 4c-and thus placed them under the control of Spanish troops, are denounced as traitors by their for? mer comrades, and are- pursued with more en? mity than even the Cubans who are in insurrec? tion. General Jordan has been placed by the Coban insurgents in command of the Eastern Department of the island, and it is reported that he has made several visits lately to Porto Rico, and that there is a large organization in that island ready to revolt at any moment. Sympathy for the Cubans is B*id to pervade the population of the whole island. CHARLESTON. o THURSDAY MORNING, JULY 8, 1869. Sta Semper Tyrannli. The Virginia Conservati ves have defeated the Radical party by a majority of 40,000. In congratulating the *'Old Dominion" on this glorieos success, we venture to express oar belief that South Carolina will next year win a viotory over Radicalism no less complete than that which Virginia has won. Give Land to Make Massey. All oar difficulties-social, political and industrial-oas be overcome by a proper j ase of the land lever. With this we oan gradually increase ear white strength, until the State government is onoe more controlled by white men. With this we oan overturn the politicians who would force the negro into oar private schools, give him a seat at oar tablee and make him oar social superior. With this we oan obtain laborers for our fields, artiians for our faotoriea, all that we need to make our State pros? perous and strong. The power is ours; if | we fail to exercise it, ours will be the fanlt. No offer can be made to the laboring classes of Europe that will have so much effect as an offer of land. Take, for in? stance, the agricultural laborers of Eng? land, Ireland and Scotland, and consider what would be the feelings exoited in them by the absolute gift of a small farm. The peasantry of the three countries which we have named have no future but the grave. Incl, UTv tm wmm mt fc- Sj ...?lag ?all, tri without hope or expectation of improving their oondition as long as they remain at home. In England and Scotland, a few years sgo, the average wages of the oom mon agricultural laborer were ten shillings a week, without quarters or rations. Two dollars and a half in gold, for working six days, from dawn to dark. Ont of this pit? tance the family must be fed and clothed. The wife may earn something in harvest time, and so may the children; but at the beat, all that the family oau earn is only enough to save them from actual starvation. They have no domestic comfort, no relaxa? tion but a pot-house, no sufficient food or clothing. These white men- crush ed down by capital and a swarming population-live in a hovel and die in a workhouse. Very much the same state of affairs exists in Ireland. However frugal and patient and industrious the laborer may be, he dare not in England hope to be able to rent a small patoh of a few acres for himself. Nor without a miracle or a revolution ean he become the owner of a farm. No wonder, then, that he is attracted by the immigration agent, and persuaded to move to the West? ern States of Amerioa, bribed by an offer of high wages or oheap land, tempted by the promise of emancipation from the slavery of capital and competition. Bat the landowners of South Carolina oan offer more than any Western immigrant agent can give. Our landowners cannot promise wages as high as those whioh rule in the North; but TBBT oin* orrs THE IM? MIGRANT A FARM. They oan give the immi? grant the thing he most desires-land of his own. They oan give him what the West cannot give-a tract of cleared land in a settled country, within reach of a market They oan, by giving away one-fourth or one third of their rioh acree, make the rest more valuable than the whole is worth to? day. They oan make their land a magnet to attract and hold the white man with ever increasing force. Few will deny that we have more land fian we can make use of, and few will deny that the value of the land, when a certain point is reached, increases in the square of the increase of the population. In 18G0, the number of inhabitants to the square mile was : in England and Wales, 307; in Ireland, 205; in Belgium, 397; in the New England States, 50: in the Middle States, 69; in the coast planting States, including Sooth Carolina, 15. The difference between the value of the land in tbe North and in this State is not the difference of natural fertility, but the measure of the difference of the population. The South can be de? veloped as rapidly as the Northwest has been developed. Take the City of Chicago, whose population in 1830 was thirty, and in 1867 was 241,354. What wonder is it that land around the oity whioh could be bought for a song thirty years ago is held now at almost fabulous prices ? abc South can do more for her cities than the North? west can do for Chicago. The West makes grain; the South makea cotton, tugar and rice. This ia the whole matter in a nut? shell. All that we need la population. F?r toe low country we caa hare end will have Chinese immigrants. For the middle and upper sections we want white men, and these can be had by offering to eaoh family a farm free of all cost. To give away land BOW is to make money. The man who has fire thonsand aeres and gives away one-half to actual settlers will, in fire years, be twioe as rich, twioe as pros? perous, and twioe as safe as he is this day. Ibis is the key to the whole problem. Who will be the first to use it ? A Crazy Fortwarden, A Portwarden is often entrusted with the leoiaion of questions involving many thou land dollars, and in a large commercial lily like Charleston it is most essential that be office be filled by intelligent men, who ire experienced in all matters oonneoted ?Uh shipping and the stowage of cargoes, for this reason respectable ship carpenters md other praotioal men of that class haye isually been elected. But what is theoon luot of the City Council Ring in regard to he office of Portwarden ? At the meeting )f Council held on Tuesday night, five Port wardens were eleoted. Two of them, Vir. Bird and Mr. Johnson, are, we believe, n every way competent. Of the third, Mr. y Neil!, we know nothing. The fourth and if th are ignorant colored men. And this is lot all. One of them, J. C. Holloway-son rf "Alderman" Holloway-was committed \ o the State Lunatic Asylum, by Judge Buist, z few months ago, as a lunatic, wholly unable .0 take care of himself. A crazy oolored man, with luoid intervals, is made one of the Portwardens of Charleston. How can any respectable man give his countenance to so joandalous and injurious a proceeding ? A Jack In Office. The Marion Star publishes the following impertinent letter to Dr. Yampin, tax col? lector : EXECUTIVE DEPABTHXHT, ) STATE TBXASUBT OFFICE. V CoLUKBTA, S. C.,-, 1809. ) South Carolina is one of the most moderately taxed States North dr South, and one-half of ill assessed is going back into tbe pockets ot the people who hold the bonds and stocks of the State, for payment of two years' interest. Any delay on the part of taxpayers will only involve them in trouble and expense, as effl? uent measures will be taken to enforce their :oUeotion. I am, very respectfully, Tour obedient servant, MILES G. PABXEB, Treasurer State South Carolina. The Massachusetts Treasurer is evidently sleek and fat, or he would not growl so stavely. The people will do whit seems to Lhem to be best, and whether they deter? mine to refuse the payment of taxes or to appeal for relief to the tax law itself, they will not be influenced by the mouthings of Niles 0. Parker. We may add that no attempt would have been made to pay the interest on the State debt, had not Scott, Parker and the rest of the Ring been spec ilating in State bonds as they speculated in jills of the Bank of the State. What is the aextjob? Something in connection with funding the bills of the Bank of the State issued during the war ? Thc Manion Star sand Immigration. The Marion Star comes to us in a new ires? and with a handle to its familiar same, being oailed now " The Marion Star and Southern Real Estate Advertiser." The Star advocates the encouragement of immigration, and advises all its readers to "calculate" awhile. The whole paper is fresh and vigorous. We wish it every sue jess : The Star, alluding to the subject of Chi? nese immigration, says : " We hope also that discussion will be sad and committee, appointed upon the subject of bringing at least a few Chinese aborers. It is evident that the exper? iment will be tried in the South, and let ua xnow for ourselves at tho start if this labor will mit ns. If it does, next year we can command ill the lah vt ii e want, and thus choosing from tho negroes those who are faithful ind efficient laborers, we can dismiss the idle, impudent md thievish to 'seek frosh fields and pastures new.' Cotton will command a high price next fall, and many of our planters will bc flush of funds. There will be no difficulty in raising money sufficient to bring in Chinese enough to lest their adaptation to our wants." fo&l ono /unnii.

The phy alelan played Into toe hand a of the apothecary, and the unfortunate patient was drenched morning, noon and night with prostrating medicines. We lire in a more ratienal and conscientious era. The importance of supporting Nature in Its conflict with disease U now understood. Complaints in themselves weakening are no longer aggravated by artificial depletion. They are met with TON IC J that rally the vital powers and enable them to de? feat the enemy. Chief among these allies of Nature, in its battles with sickness, ls PLANTATION BITTICHS. Ibis wonderful vegetable restorative ii the sheet anchor of the feeble and debilitated. Aa a cordial for the aged and decrepld it has no equal among stomachics. Aa a remedy for the nervous weakness to which the tender sex are especially subject, it is superseding every other stimulant and nervine. In all climates, tropical, temperate or frigid, ita acts aa a specific in every species of disorder which un? dermines the bodily strength and breaks down the animal spirits. Wherever it ls introduced it be? comes a standard, article--a med '.anal staple. Drug? gists, although their profit upon it i j small, find it absolutely necessary to keep a preparation for which everybody inquires, and for which nobody will accept a substitute. It la tc-day the moat popular medicine in the civilized world. Extensively os lt ie advertised, ita beat aJverttsemmt ls tho beneficial result which uniformly follows its use. Every bottle sold insures the sale of at leant haifa dozan moie. Unlike other stimulants it braces and fortifies the system without exciting undue cerebral actioi. The cheering effect which it prodnces upon the mind is not momentary, but permanent. The ri ls no subsequent depression. It does not, sa la the case with all other stimuli, beget a craving for ex? citants. On the other hand, it soothes and calms the nerves, combining, strange as the anomaly may seem, the qualities of a sedative and gentle anodyne with those o: a Ionic and invigorant. The perfect purity of all its ingredients, their admirable adap? tation tn the purposes they are intended to sub? serve, the judicious proportions in which they are combined, and the scientific skill with which they aro blended, render thi8 famous article at once the most potent and the most harmless of all known tonics and alteratives S >'d by all Drugjists.
