He is what is commonly called "a self-made man," having accumulated through his energy aud skilful business management a considerable properly. Ha Is an emin ently practical man, having devoted his whole life to business affairs. He is re spected by all who know him and in his native county his popularity is very great. He is iu no seusc a politician, but in 1870, when the county needed the services of her bravest and most trustworthy citizens, lie was called upon to represent Barnwell in the historic ??Wallace House." He was a member of the bond commission that saved the State such large amounts of unjust in debtedness thrust upou her by Radical Legislatures. His careful investigation and judicious work ou that commission are the causes of his nomination. When the State had permanently passed into Democratic hands, he retired from poli tics and devoted himselt again to the management of his private business en terprises. THE AD J UT AN T Q EXE HAL. Gen. A. M. Managault was born in the City of Charleston in 1824, aud is consequently GO yaers of age. After beiug prepared for college he entered into commercial business iu this city, and continued in that pursuit until the commencement of the Mcxicau war in 184G, when he joined a voluutcer com pany and was elected its first lieutenant. In the latter part of that year be went to Mexico and was engaged iu all the battles in which the Palmetto Regiment took part during the war. Although he [was severely bruised and injured ou several occasions, lie was never severely wounded, and during the whole period of his service there he was never sick a cay aud never lost a day's service. Ou his return from Mexico iu 1848 he went into business as a commission merchant in Charleston and remained so employed until 1S5G, when he inherited some property from his parents in George town County. From tliat time he fol lowed the pursuit of a rice planter until the late war between the Slates. At the beginning of this war he raised a volunteer cavalry company, which he commanded. He was soon after trans ferred aud placed upou the staff ot Gen. Beauregard as inspector general, until the raising of the first teu regiments of the State volunteer troops for the war. He was then elected colouel of the 101b regiment. The first six months of the war he commanded the first military district of South Carolina under Gen. Lee, Pemberton and Riplcy. Early in 18G2 Col. Managault was ordered with his command to the army of the West, then under the command of Beauregard and Bragg. His services were continu ous in the Western army until the close of the war. He was twice wounded, | the. last being a very serious wound. I from which he did not entirely recover for a year after be received it. During the late war, as in the Mcxicau war, he never lost a day's duty from sickness, aud only received a single furlough of twenty days, which was granted him during the war. At the close of the war he found his fortune pretty well ruined, and his plantation, houses .aud every thing destroyed by the enemy aud ne groes. He lost everything that he pos sessed in the shape of silver, library, pictures, ?cc. He went to work again as a rice planter, which occupation he has continued to follow with varying success up to the time of his election to the ollice of adjutant and inspector gen eral in 1880. In 1882 he was re-elected to the ollice of adjutant general aud has again been nominated ior the same po sition. His administration of the ollice has been distinguished by great industry and perfect familiarity with all the ne cessities of the military arm of the State Government. During the past two years (Jen. Manlgault lias been engaged iu preparing a complete roster of all the Confederate troops from this State in the late war. This is a great work and has made considerable progress. When it is finished it will be au enduring mon ument to the great care and Hie admira ble administrative abilities of Gen. Mani gault, who is serving his Stale as faith fully and as zealously in peace as lie did in war. THE SUPERINTENDENT <)F EDUCA TION. I Col. James H. Rice, of Abbeville County, whc has been nominated for State superintendent of education, will make in every way a worth}' successor of Governor Thompson and Col. Cow ard in the important work of directing the educational affairs of the State. Col. Rice is a lawyer, and has pursued his profession with gratifying success at Ninety-Six, S. C, for some years. He i was elected to tlie Legislature from Ab beville County iu 1882, aud served his constituents with fidelity, lie is an ac complished scholar, a fine executive ollicer, an eloquent speaker, and will discharge the duties of his new office with eutire satisfaction to the people aud with advantage to the public school system of the State. Assisting Nature a Little Ult. When the resources of Nature have become retarded, no matter from what cause, it is then quite time to help the Liverand Spleen, and other organs, to perform their thorough duty?or we shall soon be quite ill. In such cases there is no more natural remedy than a mild cathartic, one which will be sure to perform its duty without injuring the system in the* least. Such, let us say in all candor, is Simmons' Hepatic Compound. It will gently move the bowels, without irritating them in the least; when the medicine works, the bowels are soothed and healed like a charm?yet 4 he medicine is more effec tive than Calomel; one of the principal ingredients possess all the good qualities of that poisonous drug, without any of its constituents. A dose of Simmons' Hepatic Compound every night on goiug to bed, will infallibly restore health. Testimony of the highest con sideration from every portion of the country, and from all classes of people, abundantly substantiate this fact. The importance of this treatment cannot be over-estimated, and it should be tried by all means. _ Dr. J. G. Wannainaker, "Wholesale Agent for Orangeburg County. Cure for Piles.

Its name has be come, a tower of strength, and has been well earned by the untiring devotion of President Harper and his associates. Its astonishing prosperity has provoked attacks which are best repelled by a frank and full exhibit of its greatly increasing line of business. Up to July 1,1885, this shows a gain of no less than ?R5 214,5SU over that of the corresponding period last year. In June alone" its mortuary receipts ex ceeded $250,000, of which over ?00,000 went into the Reserve Fund?that triple buttress upon which the association justly prides itself. Tills reserve now amounts to ?425, 000, and is employed for throe purposes only?to pay death claims, if any should occur in excess of the American Experience Mortality Tables; to make good any poss ible deficiency in the Death Fund Account, and to be apportioned among those who have been members of the Association fif teen years, etc. As the first and second contingencies named are not likely to arise, the third object is the one upon which the fund is practically expended. It is full of other good points, among which may be mentioned the economical' salary list?less than ?50,000 for carrying on the whole work of the vast institution?and payments to widows and Orphans at the rate of over ?2,000 cash cash day.?From the old and conservative New York Daily Journal of Commerce, July 10,1885.

S Teachers of Orangeuueg County : ALL ARRANGEMENTS HAVE J\. been made for the County Teachers' Institute for whites. It will commence at 11 o'clock A. M. on Monday, August :J0th, at Mcllichanip's School lloitse, in the city of Orangeburg, and continue in session dur ing the week. Prof. Wm. S. Morrison, of the Sparenburg Graded School, Prof. R. Means Davis, of the South Carolina Col lege, and Miss Fannie C. McCants of the Columbia Graded School, have been engag ed to conduct it. These teachers have had considerable experience in Institute work, and are thoroughly conversant with all the new methods and improvements ill the art of teaching. In fact, they are too well known to require any introduction or words of commendation. Besides the regular louthic of the Insti tute in the morning, Superintendent Coward, Prof. Jovnes, of the Souuth Caro lina College, Dr. Carlisle, of Woffoid, and others have been invited to deliver lectures in the evening, and it is hoped that all, or at least some, of them will be present. The tuition and lectures will be free, and the only expense will be board for teachers from a distance which has been arranged for at the reduced rate of seventy-live (75) cents per day. This Is ? rare opportunity which the teachers of Orangeburg County should make every sacrifice to embrace. Teach ing is a profession in which teachers should take a pride and utilize every available means for improvement. The "few dollars spent at this Institute will pay back many fold in actual information, enlarged con ceptions, and new ideas of school manage ment and leaching. Certificates of attendance will be given to all who attend which should certainly have due weight with Trustees employing teachers. Teachers, come to the Institute for your own good, and come also for your pride in Orangeburg County. Let it not be -aid that the teachers of Orangeburg County take no interest in their profession; but let it be made manifest by your presence that you recognize the importance of education, and that you art fully alive to your duties and responsibilities.
