"Lot our Jnot Censure ^j^^i^r^^&^raS^fci. A'.: nd the True Event." BY J. A. SELBY COLUMBIA. 8. C.. WEDNESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 20. 1871 VOL. VI-NO. 264. . 'Eke.ujude?tifne? were ; ?appointed. IS committoo, by the citizens of Lauron s Gouq ty, foi waijt, upon Governor Scott, sud. lay before him what we regarded the true history of tho unfortunate occurrences of tho 20th October lust. This we did on the 5th of November, at no little personal icoonvonienco, and as the sole object of onr mission was to give correct information to the Execu? tive, we simply reported, on our return, that we had discharged this duty fally and frankly. Wo fiud, however, that thero are rumors circulating through the country, seriously affecting tho good faith of Governor Scott, in reference to this mission, and ns we know them te be unauthorized and unfounded, we deem it an aot of simple justice both to the Governor and the committee, to make the following statement: The Governor received us with the utmost consideration, in his own honso, and listened with the greatest respect arid commendable patience to all we read aloud to him and to all we had to say. In reply, he expressed his gratifi? cation in thus meeting us, remarking that if the same confidence hnd been manifested in times past, on the part of tho citizen? of the jBtate, much of tho troubles, of which wo complained, would have been avoided. Capt. Estes, at that time commanding tho United States troops at this place, accompanied us to Oolnmbia, and was present nt this inter? view. The first practical poiut discussed was the disposition to be made of tho publio arms, seized by order of the Court, and at that timo scattered through the country. Tho committeo assured the Governor that these arms were re? tained by the citizens, mainly through the fear that they would be re-issued to the colored militia companies, if rc turned. He then directed Capt. Estes to box and forward thom to Columbin, as fast as they should come in, nud the aommittee, on their part, pledged them? selves to use all their influence to have them brought in ns soon as possible This was certainly carried out in good ? faith, as the committee know that all the arms thus returned-some hundred or more-were promptly forwarded to Co lumbia. Wo also believe that most, if not all these arms would now bo sufely boxed in Oolumbia, but for subsequent developments over which tho Governor had no control. Tho committeo also assured the Go vernor that our citizens had ceased to look upon the constabulary force ns legi? timate peace oflicers, nud to respect their authority as such. That they had suf? fered themselves to be used us mere party tools in tho hands of despicablo political leaders, and any effort to make arresta by them would inevitably lead to further nets of violence. On the other hand, they assured him that tho United States Marshal could rido through tho length and breadth of the County, in perfect security, and make whatever ar? rests he pleased to make. The Governor thea assured us that it was his purpose to disband tho whole constabulary force in the State, and that none of them would bo sent to make ar? rests in Laurens. This promise, too, ho has faithfully observed. Ho then asked the very natural question, why tho citi? zens themselves had made no eil'ort to arrest those accused of murder and other outrages iu the country? Tho commit? tee replied that these parties were un? known to the public, and that the cha? racter of an informer has alway? been regarded as odious in this State. That whenever a felonious killing occurred, it was expected that tho friends of the de? ceased would take the necessary stops to bring the guilty parties to justice. Tho* trial justices were all of his own ap? pointment, and tho sheriff and other peaoe officers were ready to execute any warrants that might bo placed in their hands. But no such efforts had hereto? fore been made. With the most positive declaration on the part of the committee that our citi? zens would rather court than shun a fair judicial investigation into all tho facts of the recent deplorable outbreak, and with an assurance, on his part, that the cuses wonld be tried iu our own County, the conference closed. The committee left the Governor im? pressed with the belief that ho was only anxious, faithfully and impartially, to discharge his Executive functions; and they bespeak for him, ai iu duty buuud, an open approval of all snell nets.

ED.-Tho maxim that tho voice of tho people in tho voice of tho divinity, may, in eomo caeos, be open to doubt, but tho testimony of honest and enlightened witnesses extending through a series of years, and all to tho samo purport, is worthy of credence, admits of no question. Upon snell testimony tho reputa? tion of Hostetter'8 Stomach DitterB as an antidoto and cure for many ailments is based. During tho twenty yoarB that it has hoon be? fore thc world, innumerable preparations in? tended to compete with it havo gouo up like rockets, and como down tho extinguished sticks. Meanwhile, tho progress of that in? comparable tonic haB boen swift and steady always upward and onward like tho eagle's flight. Ita introduction produced a revolution in therapeutics, and it proved to bo ono of thoso salutary revolutions that cannot go backwards. To-day Uoatetter's Hitters is ono of tho most popular remedios in Christen? dom, and commands a larger salo titan any other medicinal preparation, domestic or im ported, on this eido of tho Atlantic. As i euro for dyspepsia, bilious disorders, nervous affections, general debility, and as a prevent? ivo of epidemic fevers, it taken precedence of every other remedy. This fact should teach the ambitious country dealors who endeavor lo foist their local abortions on the public in its stead, how futile their small attempts to cajole the community must necessarily bo.

SohoncU Ad vi oes Con on mp tl v* s to ao to Florida, in Winter.-Having for tho laBt thirty-five years devoted my wholo timo and attention to the study of long die oases and consumption, I feel that I under? stand fully tho course that ought to bo pur? sued to restore a tolerably bad case of diseased lungs to hoalthy Roundness. The drat and moat important step is for tho patient lo avoid taking cold, and tho best of all places on this continent for this purpose in winter, is Florida, well down in tho State, whero tho temperature is regular, and not subject to such variations as in more Kort horn latitudes. Palatka is a point I can recommend. A good hotel is kept there by Petcrman. Last win? ter I saw several persone thero whoso lungs had been badly diseased, but who, under the healing influence of the climate and roy medi? cines, were getting well. Ono hundred miles further doMii thc river is a point which I would prefer to Palalka, aa thc temperature ii more even and tho air dry and bracing. Mellonvillo aud Entcrpriee are localed there. I should give a decided pre? ference to Mellonvillc. It is two milca from river or lakn, and it seems almost impossible to take cold thero. Tho tables in Florida might bo belier, and patients complain at times, but that is a good sign, as it indicates a roturu of appetite, and when this is thc case they generally increase in flesh, and then thc lungs must heal. Jacksonville, Hibernia, Oreen Cove, and many othor places in various parts of Florida, can bo safely recommended to consumptives in winter. My reasons for saying BO aro that patients aro less liablo to take cold there than whero thero is a leas oven temperature, and il is not necessary to say that where a consump? tive person exposes himself to frequent colds, ho io certain to die shortly. Therefore, my advico is, go well down into tho State, out ol tho reach of prevailing EaBt winds and fogs. Jacksonville, or almost any other of the lo? calities I have named, will benefit those who aro troubled with a torpid livor, a disordered stomach, deranged bowels, soro throat or cough, but for those whoso lunga arc diseased, a moro ?Southern point is earnestly recom? mended. For fifteen years prior to 1869,1 was profes? sionally in New York, boston, Baltimore and Philadelphia every week, whero I saw and ex? amined on an average fivo hundred patients a week. A practico BO extensive, embracing every possible phase of lung diseaec, haB ena? bled mo to understand tho disease fully, and heneo my caution in regard to taking cold. A person may take vast quantities of "Schcnck's Pulmonic Syrnp, Seaweed Tonic and Man? drake Pills," and yet die if he docB not avoid taking cold. In Florida, noarlv everybody ia ueing j Schenck'u Mandrake Pills, for the o'.imatc is more likely to prodnco bilious habits than moro Nor! bern latitudes. It is a well estab? lished fact that natives of Florida rarely dio of consumption, especially those of tho South? ern part. On tho oilier hand, in Now Eng? land, one-third, at least, of tho population die ot this terrible disease. In tbe Middle States it does not prevail BO largely, Btill thero are. many thousands of cases there. What a vast percentage of lifo would be saved if consumptives were as easily alarmed in re? gard to taking fresh cold as they are about scarlet fever, small-pox, Ac. lint they are not. 'J bey take what they term a little told, wi Hi they are credulous enough to bnliove will wear oil in a few dava. They pay no at? tention to it, and hellen it lays the foundation for another and anotlu-i still, nntil thu lungs are diseased beyond ail hopo for cure. My advice to porsons whoso lungs are affected oven slightly is, to lay in a stock of Sclicnck's Pulmonic Syrup, Scbenck's Rca weed Tonic and Scbenck's Mandrake Tilla and go to Florida. 1 recommend these particular medicines because 1 am thoroughly acquaint? ed with their action. I know that whet et tiley ure used in strict accordance with n.y direc tioiiH, they will do the work that is rc quired. This accomidished, nature will do the rest. 'J he physician who prescribes for cold, congh or night-sweats, and then advises ihn patient to walk er l ido ot.t every day, will be eui u to liltvo a <urpse on his hand? before long. My plan is to give my three medicine?, in accordance \\i:':i tho printed direction?, ix cept in sonic e .?os where u, freer nae of the Mandrake- Pi'.!* ii necessary. My object is to give tone to the stomach-lo get upa good appetite, lt is al wat a a good sign when a patient begins to grow hungry. 1 have, hopes of such. With a relish for food ?i d the graiitioati' n ot that relish comes good blood, and with it more flesh, which is closely fol? lowed by a healing of the lunge. Thin the cough loo?! ns and abates, the creeping chills and clammy night-sweats no longe r prostrate and annoy,*and tho patient gots wei!, piovid ed he avoids taking cold. Now mero aro many consumptives who have not the meinia to go to Florida. The qm ?Hon may be asked, is there no hope lor auobV Certainly there is. My advico to such i?. and over lias been, tn stay in a warm roe ni during the winter, with a temp?rature of abont Boveuty degrees, which should bo kept regularly at that point, hy means nf a ther? mometer. Let such a patient take; hiB e-x ercise within tho limits of tho room by walk? ing up and down as much us his strength will permit, in order to keep up a health? circnla tiou of the blood. I have cured thousands by this system, and can do so ogain. Con? sumption in as easily cured au any other disease, if tuken iii time, and the proper kind of treatment is pursued. The fact ?tumis nndiepntod on record that Scbenck's Pulmo? nie Syrnp, Mandrake Fills, and Seaweed '1 onie have cured very many of what soi med to be hopeless esses of consumption. Oo where you will, you will he almost certain to find some poor consumptive ?bo has boen rescued 1 from the very jaws of death by their uso. So tar as tho Mandrake Pills aro concerned, everybody should keep a supply of them on hand. They act on the live r better than calo? mel, and leave none of its hurtful effects be? llina. In fact, they are excellent in ul) cases whero a purgative medicino ia required, ll yon have partaken too freely of fruit and dian lo < a ensues, a dose of the Mandrakes will cure yon. If you urti subject to Bick headache, luke a demo of tho Mandrakes and they will relit v? yon in two hours. If yon would obviate; the effect of a change of w ater or the too free indulgence in finit, take one of thc mandrakes every night or cverj oilier eight, and ye.ii may then drink wate'i I and eat watermelons, pears, apples, plums j pe aches or corn, w it bout the risk of being siel i by them. The y will protect those who live ii damp situations against chilla and fevers Try them. They uro perfectly harmless They eau do yon good only. 1 tiavo abandoned my professional visits lt Doston and New York, but continue to sci patients at my ellice, No. 15 N.
