Anderson, Sept. 29.?The gin house of Caleb Pruitt in Varennes was placarded last night with a "cease operations" sign signed "Night Riders." The placard was first seen by a negro employed at the gin as he was entering the gin house to start the machinery early this morning. The discovery was reported to Mr. Pjuitt, who ordered the machinery to be commenced and the gin ran without interruption throughout the day. The placard admonished Mr. Pruitt to cease operation at once or suffer his gin being burned. Mr. Pruitt at "taches no significance to the threat. He fears no attempt to burn his gin on the part of any one and he intends to keep his plant in operation. Mr. , Pruitt is one of Anderson county's best citizens. The best people in the county are not the least bit worried over the "Night Riders" business. The notice on Mr. Pruitt's ginnery . > contained misspelled words and those who have seen it have ridiculed the whole affair. i. ~ m Cotton Crop Short.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure fc is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address F. J.
