To Republican Voters of Richland Co.
THE following candidates for County Of
flcers.of Richland aro respectfully submitted
to tho people for their consideration. Boliov
ing that the masses are opposed to tho action
of the (so-called) County Convention, hold in
Columbia on the 22d, 23d July, the same hoing
not legal; and that whilo they heartily sup?
port tho nomination by tho Convention of R.
K. Scott, fer Governor, and A. J. Ranaior, for
Lientenant-Qovornor, an well as the selection
of B. B. Elliott, for the Third Congressional
District, yet they foel it as an usurpation of
power by the said (so-called) Convention, in
their having made any Comity nominations,
and that they aro not disposed to bo dictated
to by any clique or ring, who may assumo
such power for their own aggrandizement;
and aa they also believe in the Republican
principle of rotation in o?ice.

Hair Vigor,
For restoring Gray Hair to
its natural Vitality and Color.
A drossinj which
is at onoc agreeable,
healthy, and effectual
for preserving thc
hair. Faded or gray
hair is soon restored
to its original color,
with the gloss and
freshness of youth.
Thin hair ?3 thick?
ened, falling hair checked, and bald?
ness often, though not always, cured
by its use. Nothing can restore the
hair where tho follicles are destroyed,
or the glands atrophied and decayed.
But such as romain can be saved for
usefulness by this application. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi?
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional uso will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent baldness. Free
from thoso deleterious substances which
make some preparations dangerous, and
injurious to tho hair, the Vigor can
only benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can bo found FO desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambric, and yet lnsts
long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy
lustre aod a grateful perfume.

A Chapter or Facts-Space, is valuable in

thia advertisement to condense a variety of
facta, important to the public, into a small
compass. Those facts refer to Hostetter's
Stomach Bittore-what that celebrated medi?
cine is, and what it will do. |In tho firstplace,
then, tho article is stimulant, tonic and alter?
ative, consisting of a combination of au abso?
lutely pure spirituous agent with tho most
valuable medicinal vegctablo substances that
botanic re-soarch has placed at the disposal
of tho chemist and tho physician. These in?
grediente aro compounded with great care,
and in auch proportions aa to produce a pre?
paration which invigorates without exciting
tho general eyetem, and tones, regulates and
controls tho stomach, tho bowela, the liver
aud the minor secretive organs.
What this great restorative will do mast be
gathered from what it has done. Tho ca,HO of
dyspepsia, or any other form of indigestion, ?
in which it has boon persiatently administered

He is dead and gone-a flower
Born and withered in an hour,
Coldly lice tho death-frost now
On hie little rounded brow;
And tho seal of darkness lice
Ever on his shrouded ojos.
Ho will never fool again
Touch of human joy or pain;
Never will his onco-brigkt oyeo
Opon with a glad surprise;
Nor tho death-frost leave his brow
All is over with him now.
Vacant now his cradle-bed,
As a neat from vf boneo hath fled
Borne dear little bird, whose wings
Best from timid liuttorings.
Thrown aside the childish rattle;
Hushed for ayo the infant prattle
Little broken words thnt could
By none elBO bo understood,
Save tho childless one who weeps
O'or tho grave where now ho sleeps,
Closed his eyes, and cold his brow
All ia over with him nowt

We road in the Cincinnati Commercial,
ot the 30th nit., of the cordial greeting
extended to the Green Line excursion?
ists-among whom are a party from this
city. Below, we give the Bpeech of wel?
come by C. W. Rowland, Esq., and tho
reply of our townsman, Colonel F. W.
MoMaster:
"GENTLEMEN OF THE G KEEN LINE
EXCURSION, MERCHANTS OF THE SOUTH,
AND FELLOW-COUNTBYMEN: TO mo has
been assigned tho agreeable duty of
conveying to yon the friendly greetings
of the merchants and manufacturers of
Cincinnati. In their name, I tender to
you a sincero and cordial welcome to
the hospitalities of the Queen City.
When we contrast our own past with
the peaceful present, and witness the
awful carnage and dire commotion
which is shaking Europe to-day, we re?
joice that here 'grim-visaged war has
smoothed his wrinkled front;' that
gloomy clouds of civil strife no longer
darken tho land we love. With the
'risen orb of trade illuminating our
whole horizon,'we bary tho dead past,
with its strife and alienation, and re?
ceive yon now in tho name and spirit of
peace! Wo invoke the genius of com?
merce; friendly, social intercourse, tho
ties of common blood aud language, and
the memory of that national glory
which is the common inheritance of
both sections of our country, to inspire
us with sentiments of magnanimity and
patriotism, and to cement us together in
an enduring friendship. We invite you
to share equally with us in the bounte?
ous blessings of tho present, and in all
the hope that we may reasonably indulge
as to the future. To my mind, that
future is radiant with promise of tho
most glorious and substantial results.
In imagination, I lift the curtain which
conceals it from our vision, and be?
hold-for you of the Sunny South-a
wonderful development of your va6t
material resources. Your genial and
fertile territory threaded with innumera?
ble railways; your numerous rivers,
covered with steamers laden with the
manifold productions of your soil; your
waste and desolate places blooming aud
productive; your region teeming with
millions of industrious freemen, not
enervated by luxury, but bearing tho
impress of a robust and vigorous civili?
zation, adorned with all the graces and
comforts which religion, art and science
can furnish. This may bo a sanguine
picture, but, gentlemen, whatever of
good the coming time may bring, we
expect to share it with you, under a
government to bo conducted by us as
equals for our mutual benefit and pro?
tection. By rivers, by railways con?
structed and to bo constructed by and
through every avenue of travel and
trade, wo shall seek a communion with
jon as equals and brethren in the innu?
merable blessings which an enriching
and expansive commerce can alone create
and diffuse. Wo ask your acquaintance
with our merchants and manufacturers,
an inquiry into their spirit and resources,
and have no fears ns to the result. Wo
welcome you to our city, and will do ail
in our power to make your stay among
us agreeablo and entertaining. You will
bo in charge of a competent Committeo
of Arrangements, who will doubtless
entertain you with a munificence worthy
of a Queen. Welcome! thrice welcome
to Cincinnati."
Colonel F. W. McMaster, of South
Carolina, delivored the response iu be?
half of tho excursionists:
