CONSISTESC?.-Tiie New York] Times, whos litor nets and votes with the radicals, lias the fol? lowing paragraph in relation to the disorganized condition of the coun? try, ami tho effect it is having upon business interests: "Impoverished, disorganized, their industry paralyzed and their trude nearly extinct-they contribute little to the adjustment of our foreign trade, and consume still less of the goods wc hiive to selL The sources of our richest products and the mar? ket for our largest sales before the war, they are now unable to boy or sell. That this circumstance contri? butes to tho difficulties of tho com? mercial situation, does not admit of doubt. Xor is there aught in thc Congressional policy of reconstruc? tion that justifies hopes of improve? ment. Until the harmony of tho States shall have boen in some manner re-established -until thc new labor system shall run smoothly, and renewed confidence shall invite capi ital-until law and order shall pre? vail, and the last vestige ol' military dominion disappear-it were idle to look for business activity in or with the South." That's pretty cool, econ for Mr. Raymond. The New York Sun, which has wide circulation ancTlniluenco among thc laboring classes, says ou the suf- i frage question: "It may be morally right that every negro, every indian, and every ('Innaman in the United States should have the electoral priv? ilege, but if (he mass of these classes are un abie to understand or appre? ciate this right, what good can result from giving it to them in their pre? sent condition V "Little boys should be seen and not hoard," replied a youngster when he didnt know his lessons.

HOSTETTER'S STO MAGB BITTERS was struggling into no? tice against the prejudices which every? thing new, however excellent, is doomed to encounter. To-day, it stands at tho head of all the tonic and alterative preparations in exist? ence. Its celebrity has evoked many imi? tations, but no rivals. Physicians pro? nounce it tin; only safe stimulant that has ever boen introduced into thc sick cham? ber. In the hospitals of thc army and navy, the surgeons lind it the very best tonic for convalescents, and report it as invaluable for sustaining the vigor of troops on the march, as a remedy foi scurvy and all scorbutic affections, and as the only specific for sea-sickness. Califor? nia and Australia have opiphatically en? dorsed it as the Miner's Medicine par ex erllenee, and in Spanish America and all the tropical climates, it is considered the only reliable antidote to epidemic fever. There ia no mystery about the causes of its success. It is the only stomachic and alterative in which are combined the grand requisites of a mild, pure and unvitiated vegetable stimulant, with the finest selec? tion of tonic, anti-bilious, anti-scorbutic, aperient and depurativo herbs, plants, roots and barks that have over been inter? mixed in a medicinal preparation. It is also proper to state that the Bitters are sold exclusively in glass, and never, under any circumstances, by tho gallon or the barrel. Impostors and imitators are abroad, and the only safeguard the public has against them ia to seo that the Bitters they buy boar the engraved label and note of hand of Messrs. Hostetter Jt Smith, and the Government stamp over tho cork of the bottle. Feb 27 t? ARTIFICIA Ii E Y ES -ARTIFICIAL IIUMAN EYES made to order and inserted by Dra. F. BAUCH and P.

WE PROPOSE to publish a WEEKLY PAPER, devoted to the diffusion of the principles of religion and the inte rests of tho Baptist d?nomination. We have been moved to this undertaking by the solicitations of brethren in various por? tions of this Statev as well as of other States, among the readers of the late Conf?d?rale Baptist, and by our own con? viction that a paper of a high character would contribute largely to the intellectual improvement, the religious progress and the general welfare of the churches. The field is large, affording ample room for all sincero and zealous laborers. The Baptist will be printed on a sheet about twenty-two by thirty-two inches, and , will contain twenty-four ' broad columns, I mostly in Long Primer type, clear and I legible, so that it may be read with com j fort, even by the aged. Its entire mecha ! nical execution will be of the highest order. I Our columns will be enriched by corres? pondence and contributions from the other Southern States, and, occasionally, from Europe and our missionary stations abroad. The entertainment and instruc? tion of the young-especially the child? ren-will not he forgotten; and our veue ble friend, "Uncle Fabian," so well and favorably known to the readers of tho Confederate Baptist, will resume his labors in their behalf. In short, we possess all j tho facilities requisito to produce a paper of the first rank. As such, we offer it to I our brethren, and solicit their generous i co-operation. t The Baptist will bc issued as soon as a ; sufficient number of subscribers have been j secured. I TEEMS-$3 a year, payable on the recep : tion of the first number. All communications will bc addressed to I'The Baptist, Columbia, S. C." J. L. REYNOLDS, A. K.

THEo'DOEE STARK, Mavor. J. S. McM ums, City Clerk. The Great American Blood Purifier. THE Min DELIMIT! TA* S DELIGHT, th iking it the most . .juvenal ing and nary medicine to the public, observation leads us to remark that too little attention is paid to the .?h!'.- of all lb sh," tlie blood. Many diseases, and. too, many complaints, which have their origin in a v itiated state of the bl.I. arc treated onlv as svmptoms and results: whereas, if thc remedy had beon applied to enrich the blood ?ind ren? der it. pure, both cause and eli', ct would have bc? n removed. Thc Queen's Delight is offered to the allis 'lcd as a sure remedy for tho.-.- oise;.-! ., ,irising from au impure condition of thc blood, lt has a direct and speedie action upon that fluid, and consequently renders the blood pure, lt is said, on high authority, that '.man ni sooner begins to live than he begins to die. and that the characteristics of tho living organism are ceaseless change md ceaseless Waste." It is obvious, therefore, to every reflecting mind, that unless tho blood is pure, iti supplying thc waste tis? sues with material, it must be the cause of inuumerablc ills and constitutional disor? ders, such as Scrofula. Rheumatism, He? patic Disorders, Consumption. Inflamma? tions, fevers, ?.v.c. bite ami health is only to be maint aincd by the circul?t lon of pure arterial blood. We therefore advise every ona whose blood is in the least vitiated hy indulgence 01 excess, and whose constitution is im? paired by disease and is suffering from Rheumatism, Liver Complaint. Consump? tion, Scrofula, or King's Evil, Carbuncles, Roils, Itching Humor of the Skin, Erysi? pelas, Skin Diseases, Tetter, lb.Ugliness of thc skin. Pimples, Blotches, Pains in thc Rones, old Ulcers, Syphilis and Syphilictiu Sores, Indigestion, Inflammation of the Bladder and Kidneys, Pains in the back, General Debility, and for all complaints arising from deficiency and poverty of blood, tO lise thc Queen's Delight. Females of delicate constitution, snivel? ing from weakness and depression ol mind in consequence of those complaints which nature imposes at the period of change, have a pleasant and sure remedy in the Queen's Delight. Children whose fair and ruddy complex? ion gave early promise (d' health and beauty, but too soon become blanched and pale by some hereditary taint of the blood, will have the rich boon restored by using the Queen's Delight. The nnacclimatcd ani persons traveling into warm countries will lind tho Queen's Delight a great protcctiou from all malari? ous affection and diseases which originate in a change ol' climate, diet and life. Tho extraordinary and unprecedented cures performed by the Queen's Delight Compound is attracting the attention of (.very (nie, not only at home, but abroad. Thc merits of this compound are being felt and appreciated everywhere. Hear what they say of it ill New York: "If. is a remedy of much importance and value, exerting an influence over all thc secre? tions, which is unsurpassed by any other known alterative, lt is extensively used in ail the various forms of primary and secondary syphilitic affections; also, in scrofulous, hepatic and cutaneous diseases, in which its use is followed by the most successful results." Its properties as a remedy were first in? troduced to tho notice of tin- profession by Dr. Tfeos. Young Simons, (d' South Cari.lina, as early ?s 1S-JS, as a valuable alterative re? medy in syphilitic affections, and others re? quiring ilse of mercury. Dr. Simons' state? ments iiave been endorsed and extended by Dr. A. Lopez, of Mobile, and Dr. H. J!. Frost, of Charleston. From the reports in its favor, there seems no reason to doubt the efticacy of this medicine in Secondary Syphilis. Scrofula, Cutaneous Diseases, cl.rouie Hepatic Affections and other com? plaints benefited by alterative medicines.
