By a ybte of 23 to 13 the senate declared that the people should have, in view of the alleged frauds in the first election, a second chance to vote on this new county question. Up to the time of the debate on this matter very little had been done except to give^a number of bills a final reading. The conference committee on the appropriation bill reperted that it had agreed to the senate amendment placing the appropria tion of the South Carolina college at 125,000 ; the committee failed to agree on the amendment autho rizing the loan of $2,400 to the State Agricultural and Mechanical society. A committee of free con ference was ordered appointed for this last item. At the night session the Jim Crow car bill was taken up at 25 minutes to 9 and by previous agree ment the vote was taken at 10 o’clock. Mr. Ragsdale w T as the first speaker. He favored the bill. The vote on the passage of the bill to a third reading was 19 to 18.—The State, Feb. 15. , papers. Business insurance—advertis ing—is better than ths other kinds.

A fact often overlooked, or nut al ways understood, is that woman sutler as mue.h from distressing kidney and bladder iron bleu as ihe men. The womb is situated back of and \ery close to the bladder, and for that rea son any distreaa, disease or inconve nience manifested iu the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary passage is of ten, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or t-.mub trouble of some sort. » The error is easily made and may he as easily avoided by setting urine | tide tor twenty-foar hours; a sediment S| or settling is evidence that your kid- f ueys ai|d bladder need doctoring.
