Gordon, president of the com , pany whose name heads this paragraph, and 'of which Mr. 5. Y. Tapper is the Charleston : agent. The report recites the difficulties un? der which the company labored when it was v. organized, two years ago, and how, as the con? fidence of the people of the South in the com 9pany increased, and its business began to at : tract the attention ot Northern organizations, . a series of attacks upon this Institution fol? lowed by Northern agents and Northern Jonr ; liais; which for malignity, virulence and utter want of troth, have rarely been equalled In the : history of Journalism in this, country, but ? which, being promptly, met and their false ? hoods exposed, inured more to the benefit of ' the company than to its disadvantage. The - report further shows that since' Jane, 1869, the number of applications received was 2140-In . soring $8,121,200; the gross premiums amount? ing to nearly $342,000. The actual gross re? ceipts of the company tn this department, ; since Its organization, amount to the hand? some sam of $372,405 48.

THE RADICAL MEETING ns WARD NO. 7.-The in-door meeting yesterday asserted that the out? door mee tine was bogus, and composed not of citizens of the ward, but of men living in the country, and brought here by Alderman E. P. Wall. The out-door meeting, through Alder? man Wall, ls out in a card denouncing the in? door meeting, in which the aWerman says that he and his friends would not participate in the in-door meeting, which wai "a political piece of fraudulence, premeditated to cheat the people by false pretences^ out of their .rights." e \ g Lastjilght arlhrge meeting ot the Radicals of Watt NoC; 7 was held, at which J. M. Adams was chairman, and 8. M. Mears secretary. -" After several speeches, not complimentary to Alderman E. P. Wall, the following pream? ble and resolutions were adopted : . .1 " Wliereas, On the evening of the 12th of. july the citizens of .the various wards assembled for the purpose' of-eledttng sir-Variegates to represent them in the convention .to be held at Military Hall on the 20th Instant; and that In obedience to that call the citizen? of Ward 7 met and elected delegates to'.'that convention: and, whereas, a few gentlemen,- desirous of controlling our meeting, brought with them from the country men non-residents of the ward; and that we. as citizens, believing it an outrage upon our liberties and rights, declined admitting them Into our meeting, excepting those who were voters; and that those men, led by a citizen in whom we have heretofore placed Implicit confidence by electing him as an Alderman from this ward, organized a meeting that would nave done credit to that Eortion ot our county to which they rightfully elong; be it Resolved, That we, the citizens of Ward 7, in mass meeting assembled, do protest against the action of those men, and that we proclaim publicly that tue meeting held on Nassau street was not a meeting of the voters ot the ward, and that we repudiate their conduct as being detrimental to our rights as freemen and unworthy ot the confidence of honest Re? publicans. _ _ TRIAL JUSTICES. THE GLARING WRONGS OF THE STBTEM. Their Ignorance and Power-The In? jury Done the Poor Colored Men The Coat to the State. TO TJE EDITOR OF THE NEWS. CHARLESTON, S. C., July 13. . The following sensible passage can be found on the 51st page of "Warren's Introduction to Law Studies:" "To the justice of the peace a much more accurate knowledge of legal . principles and practice ls manifestly indispensable. To him, it ls not so much a credit to know the law, as a high disgrace to be ignorant of it How can he administer who does not under? stand the law-called upon, too, as he Ire queutly ls to decide very difficult questions promptly. An ignorant Justice can-scarcely fall ot being an unjust Judge; and unless the magis? trate Ls well grounded in the principles of law -especially ol' evidence, as well as moderately skilled in applying them-he must reckon ou being often placedla the most mortifying cir? cumstances; on being puzzled, and ridiculed by an impudent pettifogger, and set at defi? ance even by a criminal." The truth of the above carnemore tidly be? fore the writer of this communication, when reading over a lull and correct Hst of the trial Justices appointed by Governor Scott for this county. In the entire catalogue there are but a few who have the slightest ' Idea of the ele? mentary principles of law, and but very few more the rudiments of an ordinary education. The purpose of this Is to call public attention to a state of things which grows directly out 1 of Radical misrule, and to place the responsi- , bility of this retrograde movement in the civilization of the nineteenth century where it belongs-that is on the representative of that party-Gov. R. K. Scott, and to show how much oppression and injustice can be done, md Is, by the present system ol "Trial Jus ices' Courts," not so much to the i white race as to the colored. It is true, the unfortunate white man, in i ir any Instances, has been arrested at night on some trivial matter-made to , travel for miles through a sickly country-and . ifter a ridiculous examination, is turned adrift in the email hours of the morning, to and his way home through swamps, bogs, rain - and storm, the best way he can. But before going on this, midnight excursion, be provides himself with his sureties; prudently waives axamlnatlon. and enters into recognizance to , appear at a higher tribunal. The colored man, inless graduated in the mystic rights of the ( League, and can give the grip and sign ac? cording to the manual, hears the delightful music of the spheres (legal) at the same witching hoar of midnight-$30, $50, or $100 : line, with costs, or thirty days' imprisonment In the county jail! In the majority of cases, . ie cannot give the necessary security for ap- ' seal, and ls forced either to part with his hard sallied savings, or go like a felon into the K>dy of the common J ail. 1 A year or so ago "straw ball" was allowable, >r the unfortunate was relieved by a certain let of office seekers, whose names can be seen 0 this day, filed away In the clerk of the co ur t's ? >fflce. Old things have past away, "straw ?all" is abolished by law, the "Justice" must 'Justify the bali" or the culprit is committed. 1 tow this is the practical working of the en arged powers delegated to the "trial Justice" 1 power over the person and property of the litizens-and the class of citizens who needs protection most, and for the direct protection >f whom most of the late laws have been en ic ted ! Take an opposite case. The poor unfor- 5 u?ate, rather than enjoy the advantages of ? bur hours' education daily in the cool jail yard, t Iraws slowly forth from the bottom of his r locket his savings for months, thinks of the nany comforts it would have given his lamily, ?nth a sigh throws the tub to the legal whale, 1 md departs, if not a better, I feel assured a ? viser man, as to the summary process of at- \ ;ractiug money from his pocket for some trlv al matter, which ignorance has construed into tn attack against the peace and dignity of the State ! < Now, as to the next step in this "legal lrama." Do the county commissioners re? solve these fines-or, what officer ? Or are Jiey held by the trial Justices as an offset igainst their annual accounts, In case it may lot be convenient for the proper officers to ?ettie ? Does the Attorney-General overlook .heir docket books as to amounts of fines and :osts collected, and make rigid inquiry as to the egalityofthe latter-the legal disposition o? ,he former ? lithe above be not done, thoa I . lold that in this day of corruption no person s safe from being levied on for a "black mail" allowed and sanctioned by law. Not taking into consideration the unconstitutionality of ihe "Trial Justice act," which has been so pro? nounced by one of their own judges, I charge Lhat the Governor (If he were the fearless Ex? eu ti ve his party would make us believe) could lave made a better selection-not that I ob? ject to the majority being colored, but that he, either freely and of his own ac? cord, made the appointments of men, many sf whom are entirely incompetent, which Isa reflection on his judgment and patriotism; or he acted under the pressure of League influ? ences, and appointed only such men as were selected and proposed In a caucus of "Loyal Leaguers," held in the city prior to the first of May. If he has been guided, in his appoint? ments, by the dictation of a secret political so? ciety-which the writer has reason to believe- 1 and has appointed certain persons, purely for ; political purposes, bearing upon the coming election, what, then, becomes of his independ? ence-bis Immaculate love of hts "beloved State," and the rights of person and property of his beloved fellow-citizens? The- same se? cret power permeates and pervades-the halls ot Justice. No person eau he indicted before a Jury or convicted who has thc courage to hold up before the said Jury any symbol of protec? tion originating in the League. Verily, the statue of Justice, its well-balanced scale down-with such potent secret influences should be draped with mourning, until such time as- the spirit of Reform sha'.l have swept over our poor State, and hurled to the earth their native element-the spirits of cor-1 ruption, misrule, wholesale plunder and rob- j bery that are draining the resources of the State, and grinding to dust an entire people.. | When the time comes, select honest mm-no matter what their political creed may be, or whence come, or where born. Put a mark on these unblushing plunderers as abiding as the mark of Cain, that hereafter all honest men may know and shuL them ! I make no charge against any individual "JuBilce" of corruption or fraud, but show where the present system must necessarily end. I belong to no political party-have no creed-bat earnestly hope to see truth and justice established in our poor, afflicted State ; and this can alone be effected by " REFORM/' A QUEST FOE THE STOCK BOARD.

Profuse per-1 aeration deprives it of a portion of its nour Umlag and reproductive properties. Conse? quently in summer the flesh loses, in some degree, Ita firmness, the muscles lack their usual elasticity and vigor, and the weight of the body diminishes. These are clear Indications that the ordinary sup? ply of the life-sustaining principle afforded by the rood we eat ls not su m clent to meet the require? ments of the system under a high temperature. There is another reason for this besides the direct influence of the heat, viz : the loss of appetite and the weakening of the digestive powers which lt occasions. Under these circumstances, a whole? some lnvigorant is evidently needed, and the best aad Barest ls HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS. This admirable vegetable tonic and alterative acts favorably upon the system in several ways. Ii, increases the appetite and facilitates digestion, thereby Inclining the stomach to receive and en? able lt to assimilate a due amount of nourish? ment. It also touro the relaxed secretive organs aad the bowels. Under its operation the process of emaciation, occasioned by the drain through the pores ls arrested, the whole frame refreshed aad Invigorated, and the spirits exhilarated. The dyspeptic, the bilious, the nervous, the debilita? ted, scarcely need to be told that lt ls precisely the stimulant and corrective they ought to take at this season. Thousands of them know the fact by experience. Nothing m the pharmaco? peia (or out of lt) will supply its place-least of all, the trashy local nostrums which some un? scrupulous dealers would be glad, for the benefit of their own pockets, to peddle ont In its stead. Julyis-Snao_ ^ANOTHER AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION PROPOSED.-We have lately heard so much of amendments to the Constitu? tion of the United States, that many have not really thought of the amendment or improve? ment that ought to be made in their own consti? tution. Especiniiy do we have reference to the many thousands who are martyrs to what Is called nervous or sick headache. This ls ex? tremely irregular m tts mode of attack, coming on suddenly, sometimes In a condition of appa? rent health; at other times creeping on slowly and almost imperceptibly. In most instances the pain is felt in the front of the head, over one or both eyebrows; sometimes on the top or back part of the head; occasionally periodicity ls ob? served, and it ls frequently accompanied with nausea and vomiting. The attack seldom lasts long; but the person is liable to repetitions, or freqnent retorna. Nervous headache will be im? mediately arrested, especially when dependent upon exhausted nerve power, debility, acidity or Indigestion, by the use of SOLOMON'S BITTERS. A cure Ls effected by its removing the canse, through its creating a good habit of body, regu? lating the functions, either digestive, biliary, se? cretory or eliminative-thus striking at the root of the aliment._Jnlyl2-tntha3 pS- MORE POWER THAN CALOMEL. HOME EVIDENCE.-AUGUSTA, Ga., December 1, 1889.- Messrs. Wm. H. Tutt ? Lana-Cents: 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 about a year and a half ago, as an experi? ment, I tried your Vegetable Liver Pills, and was agreeably surprised to find that they accomplish? ed all thc 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 this for your Pills, that, since I com? menced using them, I have not taken a particle of 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.
