Remarkable Cures of Rheumatism. iFrom the Vindicator. Rutherfordton. N.

First. w'ith rheumatism in the shoulder from which he suffered excruciating pain for ten days. which was relieved with two applications of Pain Balm. rubbing the parts attiicted and realizing instant benetit and entire relief in a very short time. Second. in rheumatism in thigh joint, almost prostrating him with severe pain, which was relieved by two applicatioa.. rubbing with the liniment on retiring at nigh:. and getting up free from pain.

One of the shrewdest tricks that can be worked on an unsusp)ecting man. is to get him to hellp make up a joint stock comp~any, in order to raise inoney to pay out another man who is clamor ing for the money he advanced and is about to lose. We have heatd of a racket like this going on not fatr ftrom us. It makes us smile when we see how some people are hoodwinked. Be fore a man puts his money into a coin pany of any kind he should first have confidence in the business ability of those who are to manage it: then he should calculate cost and expenses and the sure income. The man who is in duced to put up his money without looking into the matter catefully de seves being hoodwinked in or der, that those now suffering ftrom the bite may be r-elieved for- others to be bitten.

As we said hefore. we have no )ersonial choiee. but in ordter to put the voters to think in" we will take the liberty, without authority. to surggest the following ticket: Intendant. )r. W. E.

These tentlemen would represent the the various interests., and they are all men of sound business judgment. as well as progressive in their ideas. A council composed thusly.would be econ omical. and at the same time they would seek to put in the improvements neces sarv. and incident to a growing town. There is not a man whose name we have. without authority. taken the lib erty to use. that cannot spare the neces sarv time from his business to attend council meetings and give such aid as is important for the Intendant to make his administration a success. Manning has a number of men who would make good wardens. some of whom are on the council now.but they are so situated, as to be unable to give much of their attention to the town: some of them have business which takes them away. frequently. and perhaps at times when they are most needed. If the present council were to stand for re-election we would give them our vote as an endorse ment of the good record made. but we learn that some of them will not permit the use of their names. and hence, wve 1 suggest the names already mentioned for consideration. with the understand ing that it is an individual tax-payer's suggestion. ___ Red Hot Froin The Gun Was the ball that bit G. 1.

Two drummers for Charleston houses. Mr. Julius Levy. who represents I. M. Pearlstine & Son. and -Mr. Sam Oppen heimer. who represents Fineken.Jordan & Co.. met at the Carrigan Bros.'s store. near St. Paul. on last Thu-sday, and had an altercation, in which Levy wxas' shot by Oppenheimer. The catuse of the trouble. s wxe hear it. was about the sale of certain goods to Carrigan Bros. by the one. and the ctttting in the price after the order was given by the: other. This caused hot words to come from Oppenheimer. which was resented by Levy. The wottnded man went to Charleston that night, and while he is painfully wounded, no serious results are looked for. We see from the News and Courier that on a warrant sworn out by MIrs. Levy, the wvife of the wounded tman. Oppenheimer wasar rested in Charleston.placed uder bond for 8L.000. and a ptrelitminary examina tion was to be held on MIonday before Magistrate Moore. We do not see howx a Charleston M1agistrate could hav e anything to do with the case. as the rime was committed beyond his juris diction. It seems to us that Oppenhei mer would have to be broutght to thisI cotnty to be tried and bound over for the court of General Sessions. on the charge of assualt and battery within tent to kill, and carrying a concealed weapon. The wotunded man is regard ded by his acqttaintances as a genteel: man. one who attends str-ictly to his, business, and is very courteous to those with wxhom he comes in contact. He ts: a man of exceedingly temperate habits. and his getting into a personal combat was not expected. It is the general hope. that he will soon be tip and able to be on the road again soon. The followxing was taken from yester dav's News and Courier: Mr. Sam Oppenheimer wxas given a. preliminary hearing yesterday before Magistrate Mloore. The only evidence brought out was atfidavit sworn out by: a hack driver named MIeLeod before~ M1agistrate Dickson. of the county where the shooting took place. The man says that he drove M1r. Levy to the store of Carrigan Bros.. just omut side of Summerton. MIr. Oppenheimer' was in the store. but came out and got in his buggy when M1r. Levy got out of' his. M1r. Levy wvent into the store and when he camne out told Mr. Oppenheim er to get out of his buggy and come and tight him. as he (Levy) wxas titred of being talked about. Witness wxas not able to say who struck the first blowv. Tbe men wecre soon separated and i. Openheimer steppled behind a fence. As'3Mr. Levy started off someone cried to MIr. Oppenheimer, "Don't shoot him:" As Levy turned he was shot in! the stomach. Oppenheiimeroffer'ed Levy his hand to help him in the buggy, say ing he was sorry lie shot hini, but Levy said. "Go awxay: I don't wxant von to Mr. George Von Kolnitz, counsel fo the defence. claimed that the Constitu tion gave a man the right to h~e con fronted by his aecusers in ordcr tha t he might cross-exatmine them. He ob jeted to the alihdavit on thiisground. M1agistrate Mloore held that it was not a trial regulated b, the techical rtles of evidence, but 'only a prelimi nary hearing to find probable cause. The atlidavit would. therefore. be ae ented as evidence. "The present coi diti of the defendant." said M1r Mtoore. xwould not warrant a dienial of bond. which wxoutld be given if I hadit the powxer to admit him to bail."~ Owingr to the fact that the otfence wvas com mitted in another county the cae would have to be referred to the magis rate thtere and all that a mtagistrate here could do xwotuld be to hold the de fendant tinder utnder the wxairrant for reuisition from that county.

Editor The Manning Times: I notice in the last i-tsue of THE TIMES that certain individuals complain of my withdrawing my tobacco bill in troduced during the last session of the Legislature. and wish some explanation about the matter. This convinces me that these are some who did not read my card on this very subject. just after I determined to withdraw the bill. I hold that the people have a right at all times to criticise the work of their delegation. and although the reasons I presented through the columns of THE TIMES. I cant remember the issue,were more complete than I can produce now. till I take pleasure in again giving my motives for the step I took. The hill was introduced in deference to the interests of the tobacco growers of this county and State. and was in tended to bring about a proper adjust ment of the schedule of prices charged by tobacco warehousemen in handling leaf tobacco. If these were too high. they should be lowered. and if the said charges were irregular. a system should be adopted to meet all requirements. This was an important measure. and I was sure it would be thoroughly sifted when brought up in the House and pos sibly from the amount of discussion pro dued it would. as is often the ease. it conditions like this. be lost without be ing properly understood. or mutilated to such an extent as to impair its useful ness. I. therefore, requested the bill be referred to a special committee. com posed of two members from each of the delegations representing those counties where tobacco is grown. It can easily be seen that those members would get all the information they could on the subject. and that their united verdict would be of more value, than that of four-fifths of the members who know nothing of tobacco. and care little. as the interests of their counties were not involved. There were eight or nine cotnties represented on this committee. and every man. I am sure. had the good of the peolie at heart. I was chairman of the committee, and Dr. Woods was the other commit teeman from this county: but unfortun ately the Doctor was prevented from beinig present. as he was away at home at the time. The subject was carefully considered from every point of view. and it must be borne in mind, that this was done by a committee. all of whom were specially interested in the matter under discussion. whecre all friction from heated arguments wvas avoided. and a calm conclusion was arrived at. Of course this committee had to rend er in a report on this bill, and the re pot must be favorable or unfavorable. I knew the verdict would be an un favotable report. and that it would be useless for me to attempt to put a bill through the House. opposed by every single delegation in that body interested in tobacco growing.I To avoid any expense which would have been useless to have incurred onI the State, and other obvious reasons. I requested the committee to withhold an actior.. and that I would withdraw the bill as I was satisfied it would have no chance of passing. the overwhelm ing majority of tobacco growers being of one mind: that the present schedule was the safest to keep in effect, for the present at least. I will only add that as I think it my duty now. I thought it my duty then to explain to the people of the county why I withdrew the hill and did not wait at day to forward a card for that putrpose. wlich was published in the colugns of THE TIMES.
