His compatriot was saved by a passing boat, when nearly exhausted. BILLS OF THE BANK OF TUE STATE-SHALL THEY BE RECEIVED IN PAYMENT OF STATE TAXES.-For some time past there has been considerable discussion among our citizens many of whom hold bills of the Bank of the State-whether or not the bills would be re. ceived in payment for taxes due the Stat e Some, who tested the matter by presenting them to Mr. Stoll, the county treasurer, In payment of State taxes, ascertained that they would not be received. Yesterday Messrs. Magrath & Lowndes, counsel for the billholders, moved before Judge Carpenter fora mandamus to compel the county treasurer to receive the bills of the Bank of the State in payment of taxes due the State, on the ground that section 16, of the act to charter the Bank of the State, passed in 1812, provided that they should be received for State taxes. Attorney-General Chamberlain appeared for the Bank ofthe State, and resisted the motion. Judge Carpenter granted a rule requiring the county treasurer to show cause on the 15th of next month why he should not receive the bills, and granted an Injunction restraining the sheriff from levying on State tax execu? tions until the further order of the court. The arguments will probably be heard on the 15th of July. It ls thought that the main point of the argumenta will be, whether or not the bills issued during the war can be received for taxes. . AN IMPORTANT AND INTERESTING SALE.-A large number of European and American chromos, of the choicest descriptions, will be sold at auction at Quin J y's Art Gallery, (over Messrs. Read A Co.'s, King street,) on Monday morning, at? ll o'clock. All the chromos have handsome frames of solid walnut and gilt, and include the most admired varieties. Among them are battle-scenes, pictures of still 'Ife. landscapes, marine views, hunting sketches, sunsets, moonlight views, and charming genre paintings. The whole selection is a very fine oue. Every taste can be gratified, and as the sale, by Messrs. Leitch A Bruns, is tcUhout re? serve, no better opportunity could be desired if obtaining an artistic gem at a small cost. Quinby & Co. have it in contemplation, we understand, to concert the large hall of their building Into an A?t Gallery, where will be exhibited a collection of selected paintings and mromos, selected expressly for the purpose. The gallery will be handsomely fitted up with ounges and chairs, making it an agreeable place ot resort for all lovers of the benutlful. Such a gallery has long been wanted. Charle3 lonians have always 'appreciated and admired .he fine paintings which have, from time to imo, been exhibited In this city, and they will >e glad to have the means of refreshing them lelves constantly with the sight of the latest )roductious of the high priests ol' art. It ls irobable that the Art Gallery will be opened n October next. AN IMPORTANT CASE.-The question of the ixemptlon of charitable societies under tlu ?tate Tax act of 1869, exempting "property ?elonging to institutions of purely public iharlty, and used exclusively for the support )f the poor," was heard before his Honor Judge Carpenter, yesterday, upon a motion to pro liblt the county tax collector from enforcing executions against the South Carolina Society ind the Hebrew Orphan Society. The South karolina Society was represented by the Hon. isaac W. Hayne, the Hebrew Orphan Asylum by r. N. Nathans, Esq., and the State by Attor? ney-General Chamberlain. Involved with this question, was that of the constitutionality ol*section V in the amenda? tory act of 1870, providing that the "collection of taxes shall not be sta jed or prevented by my Injunction, writ or order, Issued by any' court or officer, except as provided for in this ict." It was Insisted on behalf of the plaintiffs, that the latter section was In conflict with cf section XV, of arUcle IV of the constltltutlon the State, giving power to Courts of Common Pleas to issue writs ot mandamus, prohibition, fcc. That if said section was uncoustiin? ional, prohibition should issue, as it was Ute exten? siveness of the charity, and not thc character if the corporation, which determined whether charity was public or not. His Honor reserved his opinion. * ? TUB PORT BOYAL RAILROAD-SQUABBLE BE rwBBN THE CONTRACTORS AND EMPLOYEES. It ls well known that the principal contract? ors of the Port Royal Railroad are Messrs. Geo. D. Chapman A Co., the unnamed partners of which firm are said to be men of position and credit in financial circles in New York: On the last pay day, on the 15th instant, Messrs. Geo. D. Chapman A Co. failed to meet the payments due their sub-contractors, Messrs. Schaub and Lawton, in consequence of which a large num? ber of hands employed on the road ceased work, and have been in Augusta for the past week, pressing their employers for payment of their claims, not having money enough to "keep the wolf irom their doors." Messrs. Schaub A Lawton paid their em? ployees as much as their .means would allow; but falling to receive their payments irom the contractors, Messrs. George D. Chapman A Co., were unable to liquidate the demands against them for labor, and having their appre? hensions aroused by the continued absence of Mr. Geo. D. Chapman, on Tuesday evening, un? der au attachment, seized, to satisfy their claim of $16,000, the entire personal effects ot Mr. Chapman, consisting of buggies and horses, together with the entire office furniture of the contractors, which, says the Aqgusta Constitu? tionalist, from which we condense this ac? count, ls understood to be o? the most modern design and luxurious pattern, even extending, as street rumors assert, to $3000 worth of sil? verware, provided to give ecf-.?i to the recep? tions of Mr. Chapman. Prior to the issue of this general garnish? ment of the effects of the contractors, other claims were enforced by attachment, and the money thereon paid by Mr. Abbott, the secre? tary and agent of the contractors. The prop? erty thus released, however, scarcely had breathing time before lt was again gobbled up by a hungry constable. In behalf of the con? tractors, Mr. Abbott makes issue against the claim of Messrs. Schaub and Lawton, claiming that they have been over-paid $1000, rather than being creditors to thc extent ut $16,000. The affair caused considerable commotion In Augusta Railroad and financial circles, Tuesday, and it is said that over the wires came from Mr. Chapman, now said to be in New York, an intimation that if Messrs. Schaub and Lawton did not resume the pros? ecution ot their contract, he would forthwith dispatch 200 John Chinamen railroad builders to the rescue. These gentlemen were not particularly alarmed by this threat, whilst many ot the unpaid employees announced their intention to give the threatened Asiatic deluge ? true California reception. THE BLOCKADE COMEANTES. TO THE EDITOR OP THE NEWS. Since the close of the war, blockade compa? nies and their officers have for the most part been an Interdicted subject of conversation, and we have had to whisper that such a com? pany would paya trifling dividend, or that one intended doing so when lt was safe, and the president and directors could not be compro? mised. Some companies have had the bold? ness to pay out a portion of their assets, while others have been as dumb as the sphinx. It is high time for this farce to end. The recent decisions in regard to blockade companies should convince those in control that they no longer run any risk. It is due to the stock? holders that each company should at once give an account of its stewardship. If lt has funds, let them be divided among those who have claims. If, on the other hand, it has none, let the stock? holders know where and how the money has been spent, aud let the matter be closed up. There are many needy persons In this commu? nity who invested all they had in these ven? tures, and the little that may be left would be o? infinite service to them. Let them have what is their due without further delay. A STOCKHOLDER. BUSINESS NOTICES. SOCTETT STREET LIVERY STABLES.-We Saw another fine coach yesterday, furnished by Messrs. Chap?n & Co. for Peter Lee, Esq., the proprietor of the above large and popular live? ry establishment, and called by some the "Pa? vilion Hotel Stables." Both the hotel and stables are good models In their line, and de? serve the patronage and success so largely ac? corded by the public. We say success to all concerned. Jun24-1 MR. A. C.

The human stom? ach is to the human system what that elastic piece of metal ls to a chronometer. It influences the action of the other organs, and controls, to a certain extent, the whole living machine. The comparison may be carried further, for as the weakness or other Imperfect'ons of the main spring ls Indicated on the face of the time-piece, so also ls the weakness or other disorder of the stomach betrayed by the face of the Invalid. The complexion ls sallow or faded, the eyes are deficient lu lustre and Intelligence, and.there ls a worn, anxious expression In the whole coun? tenance which tells as plainly as written words conld do, that the great nourishing organ whose office lt ls to minister to the wants of the body, and to sustain and renew ail its parts, is not performing its duty. It requires renovating and regulating, and to accomplish this end Hos totter'a stomach Bitters mar be truly aald to be the one thing needful. The broken main spring of a watch may be replaced by a new one, bat the stomach can only be repaired and strengthened, and this is one of the objects of the famous vege? table restorative which for eighteen years hos been waging a successful contest with dyspepsia In all climates. As a t peel tic for Indigestion lt stands alone. When the resources of the phar? macopoeia have been exhausted, without, at best, doing more than mitigating the complaint, a course of this wholesole and palatable, yet powerful, stomachic effects a perfect and perma? nent cure. In all cases or dyspepsia the liver ls more or less disordered, and upon this Important gland, as well U3 upon thc stomach and bowels, thc Bitters act with singularly distinctness, re? gulating and reinvigorating every secretive and asslmulatlng organ on which bodily and mental health depend. jun24-n*c6 ^NOTICE-TO BUILDERS.-OFFICE OF THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS TOR WIL?

Land-Gents: For several years past, I have been subject to Bilious attacks, and always was a firm believer that there was no remedy for the complaint but mercury, until abont a year aud_a half ago, as an experi? ment, I tried your Vegetable Liver Pills, and was agreeably surprised to find that they accomplish? ed all the results, and more besides, of Blue Mass or Calomel, Without any of their bad effects. I was always an unbeliever In Patent Medicines, but can say tnis for your Pills, that, since I com? menced using them, I have not taken a particle or Mercury In any shape, and I consider this fact an Important one, and one that those who are in the habit of taking Mercury for Bilious diseases can properly appreciate. I cordially recommend them as the best Liver Medicine ever Introduced. Yours, Ac. E. H. GRAY, Jnnl7-lmo_No. 240 Broad Street. ^-LIPPMAN'S GREAT GERMAN BIT?

RUSSELL'S SOOTHING CORDIAL ts offeree o the public with an absolute guarantee against al danger from Its uae. Read the foUowlng certln cates: CHARLESTON, May 16,1868. Mr. J. 8. RUSSKLI., one of our careful and Intel? ligent Pharmaceutists and Apotheaa-tes, lias sub? mitted to my examination the formula for the preparation of a Soothing Cordial prepared and vended by bim. It affords me pleasure to express a favorable opinion of its safe and efficient adaptation to the {lartlcular cases of the diseases of children, which t la designed to relieve. E. GEDDINGS, M. D. Having had occasion to prescribe RUSSELL'S Soothing Cordial In severe cases of Bowel Com? plaints in children and deUcate females, I have been much pleased with its edfects. I consider lt a valuable medicine In all cases, In which lt may be advisable to avoid the use of anodyne, and par? ticularly for family use, as lt ls perfectly sale. W. T. WRAGG, M. D. CHARLESTON. S. C.. 1868. I certify that I have most successfully used RUSSELL'S Soothing Cordial m the Summer Com-, plaints of Infants. He has fully exhibited the in? gredients of his remedy, and the tedious method of preparation. I recognize the prescription containing no anodyne whatever-as a most safe and efficacious one In bowel affections of children. When much pain or restlessness attends the affec? tion, doses of Paregoric can be added to the pre? scribed doses of the Cordial according to the age of the patient. The compound, though more often, acts In an efllcleut manner without any ad? dition of anodyne. In the Diarrhoea nf the aged, In fncreased doses, lt ls of great value as a remedy; never disagree? ing with t,ie stomach-Increasing appetite, Im? proving digestion, and acting as a slow but effi? cient astnugent agent. W. M. FITCH, M. D. CHARLESTON, S. 0., 1868. Dear Sir-I have u3eii your Soothing Cordial for Diarrhoea ia teething children, and find it a very excellent preparation. It has a great advantage over most preparations of the kind lu containing no Opium or Narcotic. When these are required they can be added in proportions applicable to the case. I therefore can recommend Its use in the affec? tions for willoh lt is designed. Respectfully yours, Ac, T. L. 0G1BR, M. D. MOUNT PHEASANT, S. C., 1868. Afr. J. B. Russell : , " " , DEAR Sra-I have used your Soothing Cordial for children extensively in my practice, and most cheerfuuy testify to ita merits. I have found lt, without an exception, to accomplish au lt claimB, and conaUer lt superior to anything In usc for children. , . ,. , Its freedom from anodyne of any kind recom? mends It as a perfectly safe preparation In the hands of mothers and inexperienced nurses.
