LATEST FROM MACON.-It is confidently ex? pected that Macon will be connected with Au? gusta by rail by Christmas next, or as soon thereafter as the present cotton crop can be moved without it. _ Sr*?* TENCED.-Andrew Hill, charged with the mm der of Captain Thomas Holtzclaw, was found guilty, and sentenced by Judge Orr to be hung on the 28th.

PACT.-interest due on the first mortgage bonds ol this company on the first of October will be paid on presentation after that date at the office of the South Carolina Central Rail? road, corner of Broad and State streets (Bank of Charleston building.) Nuis ANCE!-The attention of the proper offi? cer, whoever he is, ls directed to the piles of brickbats and other rubbish In front of the building recently erected on East Bay near Guignard street. They have been there now about a month, and occasion the just indigna? tion and complaint ol those of our citizens who are obliged to pass over them. STATE AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL So ciETr.-We have received copies of the prem? ium list of the second annual fair of this so? ciety, which will bs held In Columbia on the 9tb, 10th and 11th of November. Parties desir? ing information are requested to address Colo? nel D. Wyatt Aiken, the secretary ot the so? ciety, at Cokesbury, S. C. PR?VATE AND CONFIDENTIAL.-It is said In well informed circles that Rip Yan Winkle has latterly taken the contract to finish a railroad from Augusta to Macon, and ls supposed to have gone asleep. We hope It is not for another twenty years. That road has been asleep for ten years already, and in twenty years more the chances are Macon wUl have come to tide? water some other way. PERSONAL,-The Greenville Enterprise says: "Judge Bryan adjourned the court last Friday, after an arduous session. His Honor has, with his usual ability, discharged with impar- I tiality and fairness, the high and responsible ? duties of his position. It ls a matter of con- < gratulation to the people of this State to have ] apure and upright Judge of the United States'1 t Court to preside In the trial ot the causes af? fecting the rights of parties and the interest of ( the government." ' I The Walhalla Courier says: '-We have had the pleasure of extending to General J. A. Wagener, of Charleston, a cordial greeting to * his Walhalla. General Wagener's health ls 1 not good, and he comes among us to recupe- 1 tate. All -gladly welcome him. General Wagener ls not only well known here, but Is highly appreciated by the people of the State ; nt large. We hope the day ls not far distant j when he will be again called to preside over, : the department of emigration-the main source of our future wealth ard prosperity." CARBONATE OF LIME.-The Walhalla Courier says : "Our enterprising townsman, Rev. B. Holder, has placed on our table a remarkably pure specimen of carbonate of lime, taken from a vein Intersected .by the Blue Ridge Railroad At what ls known as Sloan's Cut, four miles above Walhalla. The rock ls of a whit? ish, crystalline appearance, resembling very much a block of loaf sugar. It appears almost as pure as marble, containing a very small percentage of earthy matter. Mr H. has leased this quarry, ted i?now engaged In, burning his first kiln of.: five hundred bushels. Unless greatly disappointed in the result;.he hopes to be able, at an early day, to supply,'farmers and mechanics with a superior article of hydrate at very low prices. When w^ consider the great value of lime as a fertilizer, especially on our cold bottom land, this discovery must prove gratifying to every person. A rall supply, at low prices, will enhance the yield of corn, wheat and the grasses, to the general benefit of the country. We wish Mr. H. all the suc? cess his energy merits." TAX.

Kelley and R. F. Graham, of Marion, but that the authorities had gotten wind of the affair and had Interfered to pre? vent it. Mr. Kelley, with hi.; second, was on the ground on Wednesday morning, but Gra? ham did not come to time. It ls said that this latter and his second were aiTested yesterdav morning and bound over to keep the peace. The alleged cause of the projected duel grew out of a publication in the Marion Crescent, made by Mr. Kelley and reflecting on Mr. Gra? ham. THE WASHINGTON LIGHT INFANTRY.-We have received a handsomely printed pamphlet 1 containing an elaborate account of the in? auguration of the monument to the memory ol' the Washington Light Infautry who died in the service of the State. It gives the eloquent oration delivered by General Wade Hampton upon the occasion, together with tiie memo? rial poem written by the Rev. Dr. Winkler.

July, Au? gust, September, aad now October, each in turn, has been named for thc first train to come through, and yet lt don't come-report? ed that ODly five miles of rails are wanting; that the rails are to come from England, (ship not named) and everything Is waiting on an indefinite arrival of rails. Macon, wants the road; Augusta ls restless for Its opening, and Charleston is walting on Macon and Augusta. If It's only five miles of rails wanted, can't old rails be borrowed and put down and used until the new rails come ? Can't Macon, "and Augusta, and Charleston, aad the people along the road, stir the sleepers, and let Macon come to salt water soon ? CLUBS AND STARS.-John Norman, who was only released from Jail on Saturday, was sent there again yesterday for stealing fowls. The steamship J. W. Everman will sail for Philadelphia at 4 o'clock this afternoon. Henry Drain was sent to Jail for assaulting Mr. M. C. Buxbaum, proprietor of the dollar store. James Campbell was arrested yesterday, and, on the supposition that he Ia insane, was sent to the hospital. James Drayton was sent to lall for thirty lays for tapping the till at Mr. Zanoga's store on State street. John Stuart, who has just been released from Jail, waa again arrested by officers Phil? lip}- and Burke, of the detective force, for trarglary and larceny. He cor *ssed having stolen sundry articles of silverware, among | which was a silver teapot belonging to Private Fosbury, of the police, which was recovered md restored to the owner. < George Flnton was sent to the House of Dorrection for thirty days for ateall ng a cash ?OX. ? COMPLIMENTARY.-In a late number of the ' Columbia Phoenix we find the following com? plimentary letter in regard to the Greenville ind Columbia Railroad: In April last, I took a trip to Greenville, S. C.. over the Greenville and Columbia Rail? road. I then came to the concusi?n that I would not take another trip over the road, un? less my life was insured, as the road was in a moat, ''.orribl? condition. Since that time, I have been Nopshand West, but business calling me here again, I. learned that some changes bad been effected In . the Greenville and Co? lumbia Railroad, and that great improvements had been made in the road, and having some business at Greenville, I concluded to try lt again; and I must bete state that I was most happily disappointed, as I found the road improved to almost a first-class road, and-the cars were magnificent. I can truly say that In travelling over twelve thbusand miles, I have seen no better cars on any of the Northern or Western roads. I am wholly unacquainted with you or any of the officers. ' I made some inquiries, and learned that the company have for superintendent a Mr. More, formerly con? nected with the New York Central Railroad, and that the improvement was, in a great measure, owing to his management, as I under? stand he has given his whole tune to putting his road In good order; and I am always ready to give my testimony, and as this road, by the energy and management of Mr. More, has been brought out of the mud and made a good road, I thought I would let you know what strangers think of it. You caa do what you choose with this I feel that such persons, industry, Ac, should be noticed in all cases, as it will stimulate others to act. A PHILAIELPHIAN. A CARD. STEAMSHIP CHARLESTON, September 17. After a passage ot unusual severity of storm, we, the passengers, cannot take 1 .ive of Cap? tain Berry, his officers and noble ship, without attesting our united appreciation of the ability and courtesy witnessed on the part o? a IL con? nected with the Charleston; and unhesitatingly recommend this staunch vessel and her ex? perienced and gentlemanly officers to the con? sideration of tho travelling public.

Morris, Geo. Connor, Frederick Diner, James Dauar, S- M. Whipper, Captain C. L.?Cpahur. THE ZAJTD COXteT'jSIOS'. A Card from A. J. Rangier. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS. CHARLESTON, September 22. In your Issue of to-day you state that I ad? mitted that Hon. C. P. Leslie, late land com? missioner, ''was paid to resign the office of land commissioner," and ask me to "oblige the public by stating how much was so paid." In reply, I beg leave to say, that when Gen? eral Butler stated in his speech at Orangeburg that Mr. Leslie was paid forty-one thousand dollars (I think that was the amount named by the General) to resign, I said, Jocularly, "not as much as that, General;" which news you seem to treat seriously aa a positive ad? mission on my par: that he was paid some? thing to resign. Now, I desire to say to the public, that If I really believed that Mr. Leslie was paid to re? sign, and that the money was taken out of the public treasury, my contempt for the ad? ministration would lead me to be almost a "Reformer." That the affairs of the land com? mission was to some extent badly managed, I feel free to admit, If I am correctly Informed; but Mr. Leslie's removal, as I believe, was not brought about by the bestowal of any pecunia ry consideration whatever. On the contrary, I believe that Mri Leslie resigned, and wasaf forded an opportunity to do so, because he knew beforehand that his removal was de? cided upon. * I am, sir, very respectfully. . A. J.

(Signed) J. H. MCIVER, sep24-7_Treasurer., ?W-HALF ALIVE.-IT IS A SAD THING to pass through life only half alive. Yet there are thousands whose habitual condition ls one of ? languor and debility. They complain of no speci? fic disease; they suffer no positive pain, but they have no relish for anything which affords mental or sensuous pleasure to their more robust and energetic fellow-beings. In nine cases out of ten tilla state of lassitude and torpor arises from a morbid stomach. Indi? gestion destroys the energy of both mind and body. When the waste of nature is not supplied by a due and regular assimilation of the food, every organ ls- starved, every function inter, rnpted. Now, what does common sense suggest under these circumstances of depression ? nie system needs rousing and strengthening; not merely for an hoar or two, to sink afterward into a more pitiable condition than ever (as it assuredly would do if au ordinary alcoholic stimulant were resort? ed to,) but radically and permanently. How ls this desirable objcot to be accomplish? ed ' The answer to this question, founded on the unvarying experience or a quarter or a century, ls easily given. Infuse new vigor Into the diges? tive organs by a course or Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Do not waste time In administering tem? porary remedies, bat wake the system up by re? cuperating the rountain-head or physical strength and energy, the great organ upon which ah the other organs depend for their nurture and sup? port. By the time that a dozen doses or the great vegetable tonic and invigorant have been taken the feeble frame of the dyspeptic will begin to feei Its benign Influence. Appetite will be created, and with appetite the capacity to digest what lt craves. Persevere until the cure ls complete until' healthful blood, fit tc be the material of flesh and muscle, bone and nerve, and brain, flows thtough the channels of circulation, Instead of the watery pabulum with which they have heretofore been imperfectly nourished. sep24-?3 PAC_ pa GETTING MARRIED. -ESSAYS for Young Men on Social Evils, and the propriety or Impropriety or getting Married, with sanitary help for those who feel unfitted for ms rlmonlal, happiness.

RUSSELL, one or our careful and intel? ligent Pharmaceutists and Apothecaries, has sub? mitted to my examination the formula ror the preparation of a Soothing Cordial prepared and vended by bim. lt affords me pleasure to express a favorable opinion of its safe and efficient adaptation to the particular cases of the diseases of children, which lt ls designed to relieve. * E. GEDDINGS, M. D. Having had occasion to prescribe RUSSELL'S Soothing Cordial In severe cases of Bowel Com? plaints m children and delicate females, I have been much pleased with Ita effects. I consider lt a valuable medicine In all cases, In walch lt may be advisable to avoid the use ol anodyne, and par? ticularly for ramify use, aa It ls perfectly saf?. W. T. WRAOO, M. D. CHARLESTON, S. C., 1868. Dear Slr-I have used your Soothing Cordial for Diarrhoea In teething children, and find lt a very excellent preparation. It "has a great advantage over most preparations or the kind In containing no Opium or Narcotic. When these are required they can be added in proportions applicable to the case. I therelore can recommend its use In the affec? tions for which it ls deslgueu. Respectfully yours, Ac. T. L. OG 1ER, M. D. CHARLESTON. S. C.. 1863. I certirv that I have most succeasftilly used RUSSELL'S' Soothing Cordial in the Summer Com niamte or lnrants. He has rully exldbited the In? gredients of his remedy, and the tedious method or preparation. I recognize the prescription containing uo anodyne whatever-as a most safe and etllcacious one in bowel affections of children. Wiien much pain or restlessness attends the affec? tion doses ot Paregoric can be added to the pre scribed doses of the Cordial according to the age or the patient. The compound, though more often, acts in an efficient manner without any ad? dition of anodyne. In th i Diarrhoea or the aged, In increased doses, it ls or great value as a remedy; never disagree? ing with the stomach-Increasing appetite, im? proving digestion, and acting as a slow bat effi? cient astringent agent. Clent ?6 s w. M. FITCH, M. D, MOUNT PLEASANT, S. C., 1868. Mr J. B. Russell : DB AB SIR-I have used your Soothing Cordial for children extensively In my practice, and most cheei inHv testify to Its merits. I have round lt. without an exception, to accomplish all lt claims, and cornil 1er It superior to anything In use ror Clita freedom from anodyne of any kind recom? mends lt as a perfectly safe preparation in the hands of mothers and inexperienced nurses.
