The Fair met at Anderson this

It is said that Woodruff has '.?'hat

that when'1 he Opens it and speaks

an uiheiuiuieni to the Constitution
providing for a new method of elect,
ing (he President, it will have to
consider the finances, tho labor ques
tion, the tariff, the regulation of inter
state eonnnereo . by railroads aud
building tho Mississippi levees and
tho Southern Taciiic railroad. Thcro
is therefore, a prospect that there
will bo a long aud bu3y session,
Washington will present unusual at
tractions, for strangers next winter,
owing to the fact that these subjects
will rise to many interesting discus*
Bichs in both tho Mouse and Senate.
Wc have been assured that if Gov
crnor Hampton does make a mistako
now and then that it is not his fault,
but that of those whoso duty it
should be not to misrepresent affairs
lo his Excel loncy. Of courso an
Executive is not omnipresent?he
cannot bo everywhero aud see for
himself the wants of the people, he
has to lake the words of those who
should blush to trifle with truth, fiyo,
if he takes a step seemingly ngniust
the p topic, it is not because he wishes
to disregard their voice, but for the
reason thai in doing so, he. believes he
is acting in accord with their desires.
Why? Because Governors invaria
bly move from the best information
in their possession.
We could go on and elaborate our
meaning, but there is no telling bow
quick wc might have to abdicate tho
chair editorial wero wc to tread upon
the corns of certain gentry. Our
friends can ascertain from us person
ally what wc desire to convey.
What is a Registered Leter ?
The question is ofieu asked, What
is the difference between a registered
letter and any other ? The difference
is that a registered letter does not go
in the mail proper. It passes from
baud to band outside the mail pouch
es, every person through whoso hands
it passrs being required to sign a
receipt for it on receiving it, ;n>d
secure a receipt for it on passing it
over to the next in traisit. The pcrr i
son holding the last receipt is thus
always able to show who is nee muta
ble for the loss. The responsibility
rests upon the man w ho has signc'l a
receipt for the registered package and
I who is not able to produce the pack
age or a rece ipt from somebody else
for it. The safest way to send money
is by money-order. Where it does
not go to a money-order office it
should always be sent in a registered
package. Money ought not to be
sent in an ordinary letter under any
circumstances- There is no possible
way of 'tracking" such a letter.
Some Fun Ahead.
For publish ing the following from
tho J'altimoro Gazelle the annexed
named journals have been sued for
libel by ('apt. Dawson of the News

Washington, July 30.?There is
considerable rattling nm >ng the ex
it cpuhli can dry bones of South Caro
lina, over the energetic efforts of this
prescht Slate Government, to bring
to justice the rascals who have been
plundering the coffers of that State for
the past leu years. On Sal unlay last
Joseph Woodruff, the ex-Clork of the
Senate, was arrested on board the
steamer Virginia at, Philadelphia, just
as he was preparing to floe tho coun
try. Mo is ind ictcd for bribery, aud
(bo principal offence of which ho
stutuls charged, is collusion with F.
W. Dawson, of tho Charleston News
and Courier, in iho matter of exorbi
tant contracts for State printing.
Dawson, it seems, though a Democrat >
was not averse to leathering his nest
through the influence of the powers
I thnl were, under Radical rule, and
V. ov,. \\....m hT- addressed
mimcrous letters, has now bceu secur
ed. The inoft gigantic swindles wore'
hroiighi about in thoso State printing
bills. Dawson 1ms been called to
account also.
Wo do not know what will be
tho outcome of all this, but all fair
men must applaud Capt. Dawson'a
pluck in striking back.

The Game Law.
Be if. enacted by tho Senate and
House of Representatives of the State
of South Carolina now met and sit
ting jn General Assembly,and by the
authority of the same, That Section 1
of An Act entitled "An Act for tho
protection and preservation of useful
animals," approved March 12, 1872,
be, and the same is hereby amended
as follows, to wit: 13y striking out
the word "January," in the sixth lino
thereof, and inserting Jthe words
"Februry first" in lieu of tho same, so
it shall read : "That it shall not be
lawful for any persou in this Stato to
I kill any dear or worry them with
dogs or otherwise, with the intention
of destroying thein, between the first
day of February and the first day of
September in any year hereafter."
Approved December 22, 1875.
The official statement of American
exrorts for the first seven months of
the fiscal year 1876-77, shows that
the number of yards of colored Cot
ton goods exported in that period was
12,220.502, and of imcolored Cotton
84o;731.2oo* yards?total 55,956,730
yards. For the same period of the
fiscal year 1875-76, the number of
yards of colored Cotton Goods expor
ted was 4,515,716, and of uncolorod
27,652,006 yards?total 32,168,322;
showing an increase of 23,988,413
yards during tho last seven months
compared with the corresponding
period of the year before. This shows
that our mauufacturers are able to
compete with the Old England man
faclurers and moreover, the increase
indicates that the Cotton fabrics of
America arc finding fitvot in the mar
kit.- where they go. The difference
in wages between this country and
England is not so greatly to our dis
advantage as it was five years ago;
but our better mrehinery,* cheap pow
er aud greater varieties of colored
Cotton goods 'put American manu
facturers on an equality with the
1 'tiglish manu faclurers.

soldiers upon marches sing to while
away tedium, and tho solos, always
in a minor key nntl monotonous, nre
varied by lively bursts in tho chorti3.
The solo singer always improvises,
and i'h usually accompanied by a man
i with a fiddle, a trianglo, a clarionet,
or by one who whistles. The ordin
ary uniform of tho infantry consists
of a kopi, a tunic,and pantaloons of

being inserted in the boots. Tho gray
overcoat is carried in n roll at the
back, from tho right shoulder to the

attached to the leather belt in front.
A canvas haversack haugs at tho

The reputation tt has attained, in consequence of
the marvellous cures it has produced during tho
last half century, is a sufficient assurance to Hie
public that it will continue to realizo the happiest
rosults that can be desired. In almost every
section of country there are persons, publicly
known,who have been restored from alarming and
even desperate diseases of the lungs, by its use.
Alt who have tried it,acknowledge Us superiority;
nnd where its virtues are known, no one hesitates
as to what medicine ts employ to relieve tho dis
tress and suffering peculiar to pulmonary affee
tious. Cucunv PECTOItAl. always affords in
stant relief, and performs rapid cures of the
milder varieties of bronchial disorder, as well as
the more formidable diseases of the lungs.
As a safeguard to children,amid the distress
ing diseases which beset tho Throat aud Chest of
Childhood, it is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudes are rescued and restored to health.
This medicine gains friends at every trial, as
the cures it is constantly producing arc ton re
markable to be forgotten. No family (hould be
without it, and thoso who have once used It
never will.
Eminent Physicians throughout the country
