THE MANNING TIES. Mamizg, 5i. C: S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, November 14, 1888. There is no longer any doubt that the-Democrats have been beaten, and badly beaten. Not only have the Re publicans by a very large majority elected a president, but they have both houses of congress, and we will for the next two years at least be en tirely in their hands. We hope and believe, however, that Harrison will rise above the petty meanness of some of his predecessors, and make a presi ilent of and for the whole people. Mr. David Lee, of Salem, was in town last Monday, and says that the voting in Salem last week was un usually small. He attributes this fact to-he dissatisfaction which a good many people in that section felt over the management and result of the re cent primaries. He claims, as noted in the Tncs two moiths ago, that fraud was practiced, and he says he is going to show it up. If fraud was practiced it should be shown up. Our polities, and above LR odr prma ry elections, should be free, fair, and honest. ,oI We published an account last week of an unfortunate difficulty in Sumter between Col. Earle and Mr. H. R Thomas. Mr. Thomas is out in the papers, in a long card, denouncing Col. Earle's conduct in exceedingly se vere terms. Mr. Thomas's version of the difficulty is largely different from that we published (which was copied from the Columbia Register), and if true places Col Earle in an exceeding ly uncomfortable position. But know ing Col. Earle, personally and by rep utation, we think there must be some mistake in Mr. Thomas's statement. We cannot believe that Col. Earle would assault (as Mr. Thomas says) a -mian with a billet of wood, while that man had his back turned to him. Sumter is competing with the whole ef Edgefleld eounty. The Election. The election in this county resulted as follows: Cleveland, 1,452; Harrison, 331. G. W. Dargan, for congress, 1,318. The State and county officers received from 1,084to 1,097 votes. J. S. Wil -son, for solicitor, 1,000. On the constitutional amendments the votes stood: For increasing the judge of probate's term of office to four years, yes, 396; no, 585. For abolishing the school commissioner's wee, yes 424; no 596. As Will be seen the voting was very small. There was a small opposition to the presidential ticket, but many of the negroes who did vote, voted for Cleveland. Congreman Dargan, _Solicitor Wilson, and the State and isounty offcers had no opposition. a White Elephant in Charleston. r~aBmarIos, Ifov. 13.,Crowds of people will go to Charleston during ;gala week, and among the many at tractioes will be displayed one of the Jlargest and handsomest white ele - -hants ever exhibited on the Amer ican continent. The city has incurred great expense in affording .her coon try cousins an opportunity of seeing this most wonderful curiosity, and as it is not brought here in the interest of any single individual, and is not 'the side-show of a circus, the people zieed not be afraid of being humbug ~ged.. The correspondent of the Tnirs ~ba. about perfected arrangements 'rith his keeper to have a "cut" taken, and in- our next issue will give your readers-a genuine likeness of the city -councils idol and highly prized phe nomenon. As for its snout, "'Tis, gone, 'tin gone, 'tis- gone !" We will also mnention the different points in the city-at which it can be seen. SEMTEHT EK AT. rgrente from Foreston. Fonsrox, Nov. 12.-This section -was visited with a heavy frost this miorning. The recent warm spell hasi been beneficial to the farming com mnunity in enabling them to finish up cotton picking and preparing their lands-for an oat crop. Mueh cotton has been coming ir recently, and though the crop is short, it is not so much so as was at first sup posed. Our school, which was taught by Nx. A B. -McCormick, has-closed, and we are now without any school. Here is one of the best openings in the country for an energetic teacher. We want a school, and must have one, and a good person wanting business. in this line has nothing to do but ap ply to Dr. L. W. Nettles, one of our trustees. The health of our town was never better. We have no sickness but such as in course of nature must come in every section.. Mrs. G. E Hudgins is improving rapidly and Mr. W. T. P. Sprott is on the mend. A series of meetings commenced yesterday at the Baptist church, Mr. T. y. Rooke, the pastor, is in charge. ~He expects to have the assistance of Rev. Mr. Perry. Prof. Bonham has been in town a day or two. He leaves to-morrow fo New York,. where he will be on busi mess of importance, and may remain there three or four months. Send us ateacher ifyou ean. F.

The alarming disease of this country is nervous debility and prostration. . It goes under many names but it is essen tially the same complaint. Hospitals and private institu tions for nervous patients are crowded. The average of life in the United States is de creasing every year. Sudden deaths from nervous collapse among our business, profess ional and public men are so frequent as scarcely to excite remark. The majority of sui cides, committed without ap parent reason, or underso-called "depression of spirits," are really prompted by nervous prostration, which is a fruitful source of insanity and crime with all their grief and horror. These facts are startling. They threaten the very life of the nation. They assail the springs of its power and pros perity. They wreck manhood's strength and woman's useful ness and beauty. Every one should know the causes. What are they ? The answer is easy and terribly plain: Our vicious personal habits; our careless and l awless eating and drinking; the in tense mental and physical strain arising from our mad race after money, position and infuence; the fears and struggles of pov erty; the use of narcotics and stimulants; our fashion of turning day into night and night into day; and, briefly, our, desperate willingness to pay any price for an hour's pleasure or succoss. - So we burn life's candle at both ends and fill the lunatic asylums and the raveyards. The disease from which we suffer and die is, in plain Ens lish, Nerous Lyspepsia, as it is seated in the Nerves and in the organs of Digestion, Assim ilation and Nutrition. Healthy digestion being impeded or des troyed, the whole y, nerves included, is literaly starved; even when there is no emaci ation to tell the sad story. Nervous prostration sends out its warnings :-headachie in the morning; a persistent dull heaviness or achmng at the base of the brain; waketuiless; ]oss of appetite and disgustwith food; loss of mental energy and interest in ordinary duties and business; restlessness and anx iety without any assignable eeasonf' erectations;4bad breath; foul mucous on the teeth; occasional giddiness; palpitation of the heart; sal lowness of the skin; coated tongue and gradual failur~e of strength and ambition. The remedy is a total aban onment of the habits and cus toms which cause the disease in each individual case, and the ase of ShaJker Extract of Roots (Seiger's Syrup) to cure the mschief already done. -This great remedy, prepared by the Shaker Community of Mt. Leb-. anon, N. Y., is espeially adapt ed to eradicate 1fervous Dys pepsia. To do this it acts directly and gently but ?ower fully upon the disordereu stom ach, liver and kidneys, restor ing their tone and vigor, pro moting the secretion of bile, ex pelling waste matters from the sstem,and purifying the blood, Upon the rervous system ShakerExtrcct(SeigelrSSyrup) acts as a safe anid wlolesome anodyne wvithout the slightest narcotic effect, anid then leaves the nerves to rezzin-l their nat ural tone ad isilengthi through its wonderful infinence upon the function of nutrition. c~ It is safe to say more nerv ous dyspeptics have been re stored by it from the depths of misery to a fresh enjoyment of life and labor than by any or all other- forms of treatment Yellow Fever.
