FOWLER'S ADDING MACHINE.-This wonder? ful invention adds columns or tlgures or any length, always giving a correct return. It is easy to understand, and should be In every business office and counting-room. Messrs. Botnest Sc M irtin have the agency tor this State and Georgia and Mr. Boinest will soon leave on an extended tour through the latter State lor the purpose of presenting the claims or the machine. OUR MODEL AND MORAL CONGRESSMAN WHITTEMORE.-The Sumter News says : '? Wc nave lt from the best authority that he promised a cadetship to the son of one of his constituents who was not able to pay $5000 for it, and the promise was not fulfilled. We arc farther In? formed that two boys were brought from a New England State, boarded in South Carolina a short time to make them residents, and the appoint? ments to the Military and Naval Schools given, or rather bestowed upon them." THE CHARLESTON- CIGAR MANUFACTORY.-This extensive establishment, at the corner of King and Society streets, contains every variety or tobacco known, with different brands of cigars, the latter being made in the building. Mr. Mad? sen, the proprietor, advertises in to-day's Issue, a Ust or the brands or segars and tobacco. The factory ls one or the largest in the etty, and of? fers inducements to the wholesale and retail trade that conld not bc found elsewhere. Mr. M idsen is a tobacconist o? long experience, and wc cordially lecommend him to the patronage or the pubhe. THE L ATE REV. DR. BAKER.-Thc Darlington i Southerner, in a eulogistic notice or this dlsttn- i gulshed divine, says: "Dr. Baker was tenderly ( beloved by his people; he was a good tian and an i eloquent preacher. His style of oratory reminded i us of Bishop England, who he was proud to say i was his model. We remember hearing him many i years ago in old St. Finbar's, In Charleston, and i were particularly impressed by the beauty of his i language and his graphic powers of description. 1 In person, at the first glance, when preaching, he t was not unlike the bishop, though ho lacked that c majesty ol appearance which so eminently dis- j tlngulshed Bishop England." t THE TREMAINE BROTHERS.-This troupe gave i their first entertainment last night, at Holmes' Lyceum, to a rather slim house, bat those who went were not disappointed, as the musical treat a was all that had been promised. The company c bave an extensive repertoire or sentimental, hu- 1 morons and soul-stirring songs, and with a Bur- 11 dett's celebrated combination organ, rolled out c liquid notes or melody. The company are anxious T to Introduce the Burdett organ in the churches, < and have adopted the plan of giving popular con- 1 certs and musical entertainments In different ( cities. The performance will bi repeated to-night 1 and on Monday ?nd Tuesday evenings. THE BERGER FAMILY OP BELL RINGERS.- 1 This company, with their silver-toned bells and 1 other attractive reatares, open at the Music UaU or the Academy on Monday ulght. The general 1 testimony of the press, wherever they have ap? peared, ranks their entertainment as In the front Une of the most meritorious exhibitions. Among thc attractive features ls noted the cornet quar? tette, by Misses Louisa, Annie and Ettie Bergtr, and Mls3Maud Stanley, an exquisite performance. Mr. Whitcomb, tho accomplished harpist, per? forms two pieces upon his Instrument at thc same tlme^ Miss Ettie Berger gives a gem in her staff be:: solo. Miss Annie Berger ls peculiarly charm? ing in her character songs. Sol Smith Russell, In his facial delineations, puts everybody ia a good . humor. A SOUTH CAROLINA RAT TRAP.-Mr. W. J. Clarkson, or this State, has Invented a novel and very lugenlous rat trap called the "Surprise Trap," for which he has obtained a patent, and ls noiv making arrangements to have them manu ; factured. The price or rat poison will decline when .Mr. Clarkson gets hts machine ia operation. As . the rats can't read, we wal describe lt. The Sur? prise Trap ls simply a rotary wheel placed over a suitable cage or other receptacle, the wheel Is formed or four radial wings, and on each wing ls a treadle to which the bait is attached; as soon as the treadle 13 touched the wheel revolves and de? posits the rat or other animal In the cage below; the next wing ls brought ba position and so on until forty revolutions are performed. The trap is then wound up and is ready for action again. UNITED STATES COURT, FEBRUARY 18-HON. .GEORGE S. BRYAN PRESIDING.-In re Benjamin .Allston on certificate of exempted property.

OATES' BENEFIT.-The announcement of a performance for the benefit oi Mrs. Oates drew to the Academy or Music, last night, an au? dience good In numbers, and, In character, the bast ot the burlesque season. The opening farce was lively and spirited, and Mrs. Sheldon (Susan Smudge) played with charming vivacity. If handsome is os handsome does, and handsome does as handsome ts, Mrs. Sheldon may well be as piquante in action as she is pretty in person. The dancing or Mrs. Sheldon and Mr. Sheldon (Timo theous Dodge) was capital. The performance or the "French Dancing Mas? ter" (Mr. Hernandez) was as pleasing as ever, and the dancing or Miss DeSoyer was especially good. Profossor O'Reardon astonished and delighted the audience by leaning, not hl3 race, but a mud? dler against sc . ral gross or tumblers, producing a harmony to watch the music or the spheres were a Jew'3 harp or penny whistle. Thc comedy (thc Pride ot thc Market) passed off very pleasantly, Mrs. Oates (Marton Girofle) holding the honors. Uer acting was exceedingly bright and natural, and in thc second act her charming medley. Introducing Kathleen Mavour? neen, the Harp that once on Tara's Halls, Wear? ing of the Green, Ac, was deliciously sung, and rapturously encored. The minor parts were well filled by the members or the company. t ! CRUMBS.-Tho list of s'enfonce? poshed yesterday gave the name bf George Orubb." as sentenced to "$15 ?ne or forty days in jail." The name should have been Graver, a difference with a considerable distinction as far as thc aggrieved Individual was concerned. "We are informed that Mr. w. J. Ballentlne ls the agent for Chamberlain's Law Cook in this city, In place or Mr. J. I'. Mosscau, as stated. Mr. A. M. Mackey ls the agent for th- State at large. The Allston House, sold at auction some time since, will be transformed into a ladles'seminary under the charge of the Sisters bf Mercy. THE SOUTH CAROLINA RAILROAD COMPANY. A Charleston correspondent of the Augusta Chronicle says : "The business of the South Car? olina Railroad is Increasing, the stock advancing, and the prospect fair ef its becoming a hand? somely paying institution. I learned that soon thc freight trains of this road would run to the wharves of the bay, and receive and discharge freight for vessels without any draying, which will be a great advantage to the road and the public. With such an arrangement for dispatch, this will doubtless become the cheap freight line for Middle Georgia, Alabama, and portions of Tennessee and Mississippi." MARION FIRE ENGINE COMPANY.-The follow? ing are the names of ofllcers and members of the Marlon Fire Engine Company who will visit Augusta with the company on thc 22d: R. c. Parkley, T. S. Sig wald, G. McNeill, J. V. Cahill, T, R. Keegan, G. A. Calder, T. Dunnlug, A. J. Jager. W. H. Slgwaid, H. L. Calder, J. W. Stevens, J. Butler, E. Powers, W. Starken, W. Maguire, J. J. Milligan, M.

Wilds, w. Coburn, P. L. Dutlee, M. Blanch, W. Schroeder, F. Axson, L. Hendricks. THE CATHOLIC FAIR.-The Hibernian Hall was well attended last night, and the Interest manifested In the fair, so far from lagging, seemed to be rather on the increase. Every one was lu capital spirits. The rathe lists had but to be presented by some charming maiden when a name would be enrolled, and the fractional cur? rency heaved up from the vasty depths of pocket books very rarely plethoric. The performance of Othello, at the miniature Academy of Music, was a decided success, and fully equalled anything ever put upon the Charleston boards. In a word, the fair, like wine, seems to Improve with age, and a constant visitor wUl And each night something new to admire. To day is a general holiday that should not be neglected, and a visit to the fair ls about one of the best modes of I spending time and money. < SALE OP THE STONEWALL FIRE ENGINE.- I The Chester Reporter says that "Messrs. Mills and I 1 Dunlevy, the gentlemen who visited Charleston for the purpose of looking after an engine for our town, returned a few days since. They effected a purchase of the Stonewall for $1300, and express themselves as much pleased, feeling assured that lt wilt prove a valuable auxiliary In arresting thc t Jestructlve course of the devouring element. It p ls capable of throwing three streams far over the s top of any house in Chester, and gives out three s Hundred feet of hose. A lire occurring In Charles- n :on during the stay of the above named gentle- t nen, an opportunity was afforded them of wit lessing Its operation, which was perfectly satis- a actory. It will be sent forward to this peint as i loon as the Stonewall Company receive the steam tl mgine ordered by them. Of the wisdom of the n mrchase we have uo doubt, but still, at thc sam e fi lme, we trust that its slumbers In the engine- p muse may never be awakened by the startling cry of fire." THE MATINEE.-There ls something so full nd high-sounding In the title of the "Field of the ?loth or Gold," that reason is almost revolted and he imagination stands dlscomUted to confider I 1 ow the history of the meeting or thc two Kings | n an oe perrormea by tuc Oates Troupe, one visit ras sufficient-all doubts are removed, and the marleston public know that kings, queens and ords in waiting were well. personated. Mrs. lates is charming In any part, and her natu? ral vivacity and animation infused a new life la I ~{ ;heplay. In this shs ha3 able assistants-Mrs. ( Sheldon, Mrs. Hayden, and the other members of :he troupe, male and female, being perfect lu all their varied parts. The "Field or thc '"loth of Gold" has had an astonishing run of. auc::ss wherever lt has been produced, and even Sivaunah raved about lt. No better selection could have beou made for a matinee performance, but when lt is remem? bered that in addition to other attractions Prof". O'Reardon and Mr. Hernandez will botli lend their valued assistance, lt will bb seen that the entertainment 13 of no ordinary charaoter, and seats should be se cured early in the day. K. K. K.-The following statement of recent j alleged outrages perpetrated by the so-called Ku Klux In Sumter County, ls derived from a Radi? cal source, and is doubtless highly colored to suit their purposes. The occurrences mentioned be? low are probably thc same ns those alluded to In our Columbia dispatches: ? We are in possession of Information and aftlda vlts In reference te Ku-KInx disturbances in Sum? ter County. These men called a meeting a short time ago or the people living in the vicinity of the late Robertson outrage. They demanded that thc Democrats should separare to one side and thc Radicals to the other. About sixteen colored men wcut over to tne Democratic side, and about eighty remained Arm to their principles. The latter were told that they should not be per? mitted to reut or farm lauds on their own ac? count. On the night of thc second of February a party of armed men. In disguise, entered the dwelling house of Jacob Price, a man renting land from Mrs. Bell, and commenced abusing his wife and children. He was absent at the time. They re? mained there about halfan hour, and then sei tire to his barn, con raining about forty bushels of corn, which was entlrelv consumed. They also llred two shots at one of Price's sons, evidently with the intent of killing him. The only crime against these persons seems to be tt\eir adherence to Re? publicanism. This family became so terror stricken that they laid out in the woods for many nights, expecting these villains to return and carry out their threats. They have been taken care of by friends. No arrests have been made. This mau ls only one of many against whom threats have been made. An address has been forwarded to members of the General Assembly, asking that something be done to stay these cow? ardly persecutions of an innocent and offensive class or citizens.

Human beings, on thc other hand, must depend on reason aud experience in selecting the means or protecting health and lifo against unwhole? some influences. Now, what docs reson say on this vital subject' Does lt not tells us that to In? vigorate and purify the system ls the best way to protect lt against the Invisible poison which generates disease? Sorely it does. The next question is, what guide shall we follow in choos? ing a medicinal safoguard ? Reason replies, let your monitor bc experience. Well, thc experi? ence or eighteen years comprised In ono unbroken series ol satisfactory testimonials assures us that HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS posesses strengthening, regulating and antiseptic proper? ties which are not combined In the same happy proportions In any other preparation extant. This, therefore, is thc antidote to which reason bids us resort when our health Is imperilled either by the malaria which produces epidemic disorders, or by any other cause, whether inhe? rent and constitutional, or connected with our habits, occupations and pursuits. Thc venom of noxious reptiles ls scarcely more subtle and dangerous than that which lurks in foul air and impure water. To escape thc revers, bilious disorders, disturbances or the bowels and other serious maladies produced by these Insalu? brious elements, it is absolutely necessary that the stomach and all thc secretive organs should be, so to speak, in a robust condition. Upon the amount or resistance which the vital system eau oppose to the deleterious Influences that assail lt, the safoty ol' the health depends, and lt is because the GREAT VEGETABLE INVIGOKANT imparts energy and rcgu . rlty to the most important fonctions or the body, that lt can bc recommended and guaranteed as au invaluable preventive medi? cine. fobl4 CDAC ?&- MANHOOD.-A MEDICAL ESSAY on the Cause and Cure or Decline in Premature Man, thc treatment or Nervous and Physical De b?lty, &c.

That any sick man survived the treatment of fifty years ago, must be considered a proof that human beings are very hard to kin The lancet, calomel, cantharldes and drastic pur? gatives were then the order of the day. The phy? sician played into the hands of the apothecary, and the unfortunate patient was drench.u mons.' lng, noon and night with prostrating medicines. We live in a more rational and conscientious era. nie Importance of supporting Nature brits conflict with disease ls now understood. ?[Complaints m themselves weakening arc no longer aggravated by artificial depletion. They aremet with TONICS that rally the vital powers and enable them to de Teat thc enemy. Chief among these alaos of Na? ture, In Ita battle? with sickness, is PLANTATION BITTERS. This wonderful vegetable res tora tl vets the shoe t ?achor of the feeble and debilitated. At a cordial or the aged and dc crept J lt has no equal among stomachics. As a remedy for thc nervous weakness o which the tender sex are especlaby subject, lt s superseding every other stimulant and nervine, n aU' climates, tropical, temperate or frigid, lt tcts as a specific m every species of disorder kvhleh undermines the bodily strength and sreaks down the animal spirits. Wherever lt s introduced it .becomes a standard article -a- medicinal staple. Druggists, although their f.roflt upon lt is small, find it absolutely necessary to keep a preparation for which sverybody Inquires, and for which nobody will accept a substitute. It is to-day the most popular medicine In thc civilized world. Extensively asv lt is advertised, its best ad? vertisement is thc beneficial result which uniformly follows Its use. Every bottle sold In? sures the sale of at least bah* a dozen more. Un Uko other stimulants, lt braces and fortines the systom without exciting undue cerebral action, Thc cheering effect which lt produces upon the mind is not momentary, but permanent. There ls no subsequent depression. It does not, as ls the case with all other stlmi^i, bogot a oraving for ex? citants, on the other hand, lt soothes and calms the nervo8,comblnlng,strange as thc anomaly may seem, inequalities of a sedative and gentle ano dyne with those of a tonic and lnvlgorunt. The perfect purity of all Its Ingredients, their admirable adaptation to the purposes .they are intended lo^subserve, the judicious pro portions iu which they are combined, and tho scientific skill with which they are blend? ed, render tlds famous article at once the most potent and thc most harmless of all known tonics and alteratives.
