EDITORS : As your paper has tho largest circulation in Lexington Dis? trict of any paper in the Slate, please de? vote a small space in your columns to a matter of public interest. As an application will be made to the Legislature- at its present session, for an amendment to tho charter of tho Columbia "Bridge Company, and as that charter is understood to bo perpetual, it is a matter of the greatest concern, not only to tho in? habitants of Columbia, but to tho people of Lexington District, that tho rates of toll should bo definitely settled by the General Assembly. Columbia is now in ashes, and if the city is to be rebuilt, and restored to her ancient splendor, ? very large proportion of the material of reconstruction must cross the Congaree from Lexington. An additional consideration, and ono well worthy the at? tention of Columbians, as well as tho peo? ple of Lexington, is tho supply offire-wood, a very large proportion of which must like? wise cross the Congaree ; and if the rates of toll aro to bo regulated alono by the magnanimity of the stockholders, it is to be feared that cither a total prohibition will bo tho result, or that tho Columbia consumers will be required to submit toan advance in price, which will not well com? port with the stringency of tin; times, lt is well known that the supply of both these necessities, lumbei and fire-wood, is inex .haustible on tho Lexington sido ot the river, and as the demnnd must bc perpetu? al! there can bo no valid reason why the rutes of toll should not be lixed and limit? ed, as well for a corporation like tho Colum? bia Bridge Company, as for the owners ol a chartered ferry. Too destruction of the Cungaroo bridge was ono of tho direst calamities of tho war -affecting tho interests not only of the citizens of Columbia, hut of tho great travel? ing public; and its rebuilding will be hailed with joy by thousands. But, in granting such important and exclusive privileges to this largo corporation, it would bo well to apply tho same restrictions ns arc always imposed upon companies of less pretcn I ?ions.

INTEREST - Will the thousands who read columnsfof frivolous verbiage every day devote five minutes to the perusal of a few facts which concern them nearly? Our text iaJlealth, and wc will put cur commentary into a nut? shell. Weakness is indirectly tho cause ol all sickness; for if nature bc strong enough to resist the morbid influences which pro? duce illness, of course they are powerless. Seek strength*, therefore. Invigorate ann regulate the system. When the quicksil? ver ranges from SO to 'JG degrees in the shade, the most athletic are enfeebled and the weak" aro prostrated, lt is at such a time that such an invigorator as IIOS'LET TEIt'S STOMACH BITTERS is urgently needed. What are tho effects of this rare vegetable tonic? Would that all who have known its benefits contd condenso their experience into this paragraph. Thej would tell the healthy, to protect their health they must use this great safeguard linst the debilitating influences. They would exhort the weak to discard all uu medicatcd and impure stimulants and cling to this wholesome and unfailing tonic and alterative as tho shipwrecked mariner would cling to a raft in a stormy sea. They would, of dyspeptic pangs relieved, of ap? petite restored, of shattered nerves re? strung, of headaches cured, of disordered functions regulated, of hypochondria dis? sipated, of miasmatic diseases baffled, oi fever and ague cured, of liver complaints arrested, of heat, privation and toil defied, of hope re-animated ami cheerfulness restored. Such are the effects of Holtet- i ter's Bitters. ? Bec 2 ft> FEVERS, CHILLS, AGUE, <SiC- j Tho cause of fever is tho contamination ol the blood by some morbide agent. The nerves connected with nutrition and or? ganic contractility suffer alteration in theil composition. The muscles, deprived oi nervous influence, begin to waste, and this waste produces beat. Tho heart is in? creased in its action, and. tho blood is ren? dered still moro impure by receiving th< wasted tissues by the continued action o! the morbid agent, as well as by tho func? tions of the lungs, liver and spleen being impeded. Purify, therefore, the springs ol life, the blood. Use tin "Queen's Delight,'' the great blood remedy, and all morbid jents will be removed. Tho Queen's De? light has cured many cases of contamina? tion of tho blood, chill and fever, typhoid fever; eruptiso fever will be prevented bv thc free use of the Queen's Delight.
