??hceT roe?rrFmeh?ed sd eloquently by
Carlyle, when he was made Chancellor
of. -Oxford University, would be the best
policy for lau parties, who, having de
fomit?oslo conceal, think the blind-fold?
ing of thei? own eyes, the most infallible
method of ; hoodwinking the public. Aa
we belong to none of these parties, and
S?te freedom of speech and of the
under tho Federal Constitution, we
it our duty, as conservators of the
pablio weal? not as magistrates bnt as
patriota, to look keenly about ns in every
direction, and to discuss questions of im?
portan oe as they happen to arise in an
?ge when jugglery and necromancy are
prominently brought forward {or the
amusement of the people.
We are most interested, just now, with
the prospect boforo us, such, for all tho
world; as woke up the genius of a Beattie,
when he struck the strings of his barp to
describe a thunder-storm-here^ a bit of
sun-shine, anon o' streak of lightning,
th? winds rising rapidly and shrieking
fiercely; tho heavens covored all over
'with a wide'strotoning mantle of clouds,
block es mid-night, and the rain pouring
down tho blue ridge with a sound like
that of "thunder, 'and sweeping through
tho valleys of the beautiful land, where,
little loss than a century ago, full of con?
fidence and hppe, wo commenced the ex?
periment of free institutions.
A fino chanco prevailed, just after the
surrender'of'Confederate arms, to con?
solidate' the Union-by which we do not
mean tb o confounding of the depart?
ments of government, and eliminating a
monarchy or empire out of them, with
such a man as Gen. Grant at its head,
whp could rulo it, if not by a wise poli?
cy, yet DJ the sword, but we mean the
restoration of the Southern States to
their place in the Union, under the old
Constitution, Without conditions. If
peace-an honorable peace-had been,
as ia now pretended, the grand desidera?
tum tor tue- country, and, along with it,
union and good fellowship between the
sectiond; that was the period to accom?
plish the-object, under the force of a
single'consid?ration i viz: The obvious,
common, great and increasing interests
of all sections to be secured, advanced
t?d'perpetaated by peaoe, and by peace
- only. This 'desirable result has thus far
been defeated by the obstinacy, reckless?
ness, mad ambition, and all-grasping
avarice of artie!, designing men, without
patriotism, humanity or forecast, who
would, regardless of the interests of mil?
lions, sell their country for that mess of
Sottagd represented by a paltry office,
ach men do not know what principle,
'what1 honor, what public virtue, what
constitutional law, the only basis of sta?
ble free1 government, the only hope for
'^e fh?ore, are. To all appearance, these
; attributes of manliness have passed from
' th? stage of American affairs.

intermeddling in State elections, the
more especial province of the people of

ROBINSON CRUSOE'S SUCCKSSOK.-Tho
island of Juan Fernandez, which has
been made so world-renowned by that
wonderful book of Dauiel Defoe, has
again attracted attention. After having
been used aa a penal colony by Chili and
then abandoned, and then occupied by
an American sailor for many years, it bas
now been settled again by Robert Wehr- j
mao, a Saxon engineer of an adventurous
turn, who has gone there with a little
colony of some sixty souls, men, women
and children. They have taken with them
agricultural implements, horses, sheep
and cows, and aro determined to realize
some of the delight? Robinson Crusoe
enjoyed. The Germans are great work?
ers, md they will make this beautiful
little island "blossom like the rose."
A number of old Dutch coins, some

On Mo ucl ay moroiug lost. Jud go Irait,
supposing J. L. Addison: Esq.., to be the
author of a communication in the Au?
gusta Constitutionalist, in reference to tho
present session of oar cdurt, tho presid*
jug Judge, &c, whian article Judge P.
thought was a "little heavy," called upon
fi. W. Addison, who is no attorney at
the Edgefleld bar, in open coart, to be
sworn, and to testify as to Whether his
brother, J. L. Addison, had written the
article alluded to. This he declined to
do. Jndge Platt then imposed a fino of
$25 for contempt of court, and imprison?
ment until said fine was paid. ,
J. L. Addison wns'then called Opon to
be sworn, and to answer whether br not
he had written the article. Mr. Addison
did not refuse to be sworn, but declined
to answer tho question. He was sus?
pended from the roll ot attorneys during
the pleasure of the Court, or until re-in?
stated by competent authority. Messrs.
Gary & Gary and Butler & Youmann were
counsel for Mr. J. L. Addison. Mr. John
E. Bacon was connsel for Mr. H. W. Ad?
dison. These attorneys endeavored to
convince the Coart that the proceedings
were irregular and improper.
Judge Platt exhibited much feeling
and anger, and would not hear, connsel,
but peremptorily ordered counsel to be
seiited, ns he desired no suggestions or
information from tho members of the
bar. Even Elliott undertook to object
to the Judge styling him a "colored at?
torney," and to request that his name be
withdrawn from ali connection with tho
charges. Ho was ordered to "sit down."
Wc do not pretend to be "lenrned in
tho law," and yet we do know that no
one can bo called upon, on oath, to cri?
minate himself. This action on tho part
lof Judge Platt is a flagrant abuse nf his
power as a Jndge, and calls forth tho in?
dignation nnd censure of every good citi?
zen. Judge Platt finally, at the sugges?
tion of counsel, agreed to suspend thc
order until Wednesday, in order that
counsel might be heard.
On Monday afternoon, however, Judg<
? Platt withdrew his order, and sowed for
givencss broadcast, stating that ho hat
never intended to enforce these orders,
bnt simply desired to ventilate the fact
that he would notice a contempt of conn
from any person. And withdrawing
these orders is the wisest thing he btu
dono this court. Thus the little sensa
tion scene terminated.

CONCLUSIVE KV ID IC ST CK Iff FAVOR
OF HOSTETTER'8 STOMACH IlITTEHS.
W. H. Reese, a loading druggist iii Monti?
cello, III., in a letter of June 6, 1868, writes to
this effect: ''Having sold Hostettor's Bitters
for tho past four years, I cannot but speak of
tho article as being the best tonic and appe?
tizer extant. During the ague season of 18G5-G,
I could not keep a sufficient stock on hand to
supply my. customers, in fact, your Bitters
was an staple as quinine. I learn that physi?
cians prescribo it all over the Western coun?
try. Indeed, a groat many familiea think they
are not safe without your invaluable tonic"
J. K. Witherspoon, Esq.. a magistrate of
Kershaw County, 8. C., states, under date
April 13.1868, that ho haa used the Bitters
constantly in his own family for tho previous
two years. Ho first triod tho preparation when
suffering from exhaustion produced by a se?
vero attack of fever. Before tho first bottle
was hnisbed ho experienced a remarkable
chango for the better. Ho had tried brandy
at the ontBet, but found that did him moro
harm than good. In ono month from the lime
ho commenced using the Bitters his health,
strength and appetite wore restored. Ho had
recommended tho article to others in like cir?
cumstances, and nover known it to fail, and
had found it a pertcct speedie for elid?s and
l?ver.
Mr. Samuel Young, of Clarion, Pa., under
dato April G,'186S, certifies that ho was com?
pletely cured of "ono of the most distressing
attacks of dyspepsia that over aflliotcd ar?
morial," by throe bottles of tho Bitters, after
"various other remedios had proved power?
less." Restored to perfect health, he thanks
"that excellent preparation for the result."
Dr. G. M. Sp.)nour, of Bruah Creek, Perry
County, Ala., writing thence February 8, 1868,
says: "I have used your Stomach Bitters for
several years in my practico, and find them
superior to most of the Bittora now prescribed
by the profession generally." Oct 1 j6

Ayers G at li artic Pills, for all the Pur?
poses oi a Laxative Medicine.
PERHAPS no ono
medicino is so univer?
sally r?quired by every
body ab a cathartic,
nor was ever.any bo
fore so universally
adopted into use, in
every country and
amone all classes, as
this mild but ofticiont
purgative PILL. The
obvious re.i: nie, that
it is a moro roliablo and far moro effectual
remedy than any other. Thoso who have
Uried lt, know that it cured thom; those who
Bave not, know that it cures their neighbors
.nd friends, and all know that what it does
once it dons always-that - it never fails
through any fault or neglect of its composi?
tion We have thousands upou thousands of
oertirlcates of their remarkable cures of the
following complaints, but such eurea are
known in ovory neighborhood, and wo need
not publish thom. Ad ipted to all ages and
conditions (u .il! climates; containing neither
ealomel or-arty deleterious drug, they may bo
taken wit h san ty by anybody. Their sugar
coating preserves them ever tresh and makes
them pkaaant to take, while being purely
vegetable, no harm cnn arise from their use iii
any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on
the internal viactra to purify tho blood and
stimulai e it into healthy action-remove thu
obstruotiohb of the Btdtnuo'i, bowels, liver and
other organs ol the body, restoring their irre?
gular aotion to health, and by correcting,
wherever they exist, such d< rangements as an?
the first origin of diaoase.
Minute directions are given in the wrapper
op tho box, for tho following complaints,
which these PILLS rapidly our?:
For Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Listlessness,
Languor ana Loss of Appetite, they should be
taken moderately to stimulate the stomach
and restore its healthy tone and action.
For Liver Complaint and its various symp?
toms, Bilious Headache, Sick Headache, Jaun
dire or Green Sickness, Bilious Colic and Ei?
lums Fevers, they should bo judiciously taken
for each case, to oorreot the diseased aotion
or remove the obstructions which cause it.
For Dysenterry or Diarrhoa, but one mild
dose is generally required.
For Rheumatism, Gout, Gravel, Palpitation
of the Heart, Pain in the Side, Back aful Loins,
they should be continuously taken, as re?
quired, to change the diseased action of the
system. With such chango thoso complaints
disappear.
For Dropsy and Dropsical Stoellings, they
should bo taken in large and frequent doses
to produce tho effect of a drastic purgo.
For Suppression a largo doso elionld be
taken, an it produces the desired effect by
By m pat bv.
Aa a Dinner Pill, tako one or two I'iUs to
promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach
and bowels into healthy action, restores the
appetite, and invigorates the srvstem. Hence
it ia often advantageous when no serious de?
rangement exists. One who f?els tolerably
well, often finds that a dose of these Pill*
makes him feel decidedly better, from their
cleansing and renovating ede ct on thc digestive
apparatus.
