All who are nlllted with this terrible disease, I would kindly recommend to try it for the beneit of their health, and it is excellent as a blood purifier. By Dr. T. B. FORIES, M. D., for MiS. WM. H. FORBES. VEGETIN E.-When the blood becomes life less and stagnant, either from change of weather or climate, want of exercise, irregular diet, or from any other cause, the Vegetine will renew the blood, carry off the putrid humors, cleanse the stomach, regulate the bowels, and impart a tone of vigor to the whole body.

A Vhy is this medicine performing such great cures ? It works in the blood in the circulating fluid. It can truly be called the Great Blood Purifier. The great source of the disease originates in the blood ; and no medi cine that does not act d.rectly upon it, to purify and renovate, has any just claim upon public attention. Vegotine.

' A GREAT INVENTION. -0 SIIERP IIUS 1ANDRY RENDERED 8A.FE AND PRtOFITA1BLE. The Successful Experiments of a Sheop-Raising Farmer in Horry County. The Conwayboro Telephone brings to public notice a recent invention of Capt. C. Gilbert, of Horry county, for the protection of sheep. A patent has issued to Captain Gilbert and Mr. Thomas W. Beaty, with all the papers necessary to secure them in the exclusive right to make, sell and use this wonderful apparatus. Our contempora..y says: We have been permitted to exam ine it minutely, and to study its adaptability ; and we now affirm that in our judgment sheep may hence, forth enjoy perfect safety from dogs and other carniverous animals, and that, too, at a trifling cost, and with very little trouble. There is no doubt about the adaptability, the practicability, the feasibility, or the utility of this wonderful apparatus. Captain Gilbert has for a number of years been the most enterprising and successful planters in Hurry county, and always gave particular attention to sheep1 raising. Some years since he noticed that all his sheep which were destroyed by dogs were torn about the neck-so much and so uniformly so that he was led to believe that if their necks could he protected they might be saved from such wholesale slaughter. He then set to work to perfect some instrument which would secure this object without otherwise damaging the sheep. Fortunately he was not long in contriving one which gave entire satisfaction in all but convenience and cheapness. But with his sheeopso well protected ho could well af'ord to experiment. Iydeed, there was a necessity laid upon him to do so. Dogs continued at intervals to invade his flock ; but not one was ever lost with this new protector. Satisfied that it answered the purpose of protection, he do dermined to acquaint his friends with its character. On one occa sion, while in conversation with Mr. Beaty, a cheaper device was sug - gested, and this, as ultimately per fected, will soon be before the pub lic. The invention consists in a metal. lie collar or neck band, which is fastened together by means of a slot and rivet or buttgn, and is lpro vided'with cross pieces having point ed ends. So simple is it in con struction, and so perfectly adapted to the end in view, that when once seen any one will be surprised that it has not been in use for thousands of years. This is the sheep protec tor. The band or cross pieces may be stamped with the owvner's name and the year it wvas placed upon the sheep, so as to keep a perfect record of every member of the flock. It may also be painted in colors by which one may at a glance distin.' guish his own from other person's sheep at a distance without the difflculty often experienced of ascer taining the ear marks. This band also comies into use when the animal is to be caught for shearing. By means of a hook somewhat resem bling the ancient shepherd's hook artistically wrought the sheep is taken by the collar and gently con.. trolled by the shearer. Besides this they have invented a shearing board which excels every thing of its kind we have ever seen. The construction of this is not so * mple, but exhibits greater thought fulness, combined with mechanical ingenuity and a humane regard for the animal to which we are indebted for so many comforts. It consists of a board with four projecting arms, two upon each edge, to which the' legs of the sheep are tied during the procese of shearing, and having also a spring which engages the me tallie neck collar aforesaid, and holds the head of the sheep. By this in vention the sheep is securely held without violence or injury and sheared without the least di ticulty. The protector will cost so little that any one able to own sheep can I well afford to supply himself with all that may be necessary, and after a few years more wve shall hear of no 0uch things as a sheep-killing dog.I The compiaint, if any, will be against the carelessness which .msy leave th see aunprotected. -W\e favor thA w a of South -Carolina, and glyJykitb heeusr sHgh sivo hounds and pestiferous fices which abound in the country. But hencefarth they will be powerless to hurt the sheep of prudent husband-. men. The protector may be readily adjusted to sheep of any size, and is worn without inconvenience by lambs only a few weeks old. A GOOD TnAoEuER.-Wednesday night an old colored man, named Johnson Williamson, called at the police office and asked assistance to arrest a colored youth named Jim Nelson, who, he said, had robbed his house in Barnwell, S. C. The old man was footsore and weary, and gave a graphic description of his tramp after the burglar. Cross ing the river at Hancock's Landing, he tracked Nelson through Soriven, Burke and Richmond counties to Augusta, walking all the way. Along the route he found portions of the stolen property, which the thief had sold inorder to obtain money to buy provisions. Nelson was found yes-. torday morning and lodged in the guardhouse and will be carried back to Barnwell by Williamson. The greater part of the stolen property was found in his possession.-Au.. gusta Chroniole. SENATOR BUTLER AND SOUTH CARO LINA.-A special despatch to the New York World says Senator Butler has quietly but successfully labored for the advancement of the material interests of South Carolina. Au appropriation of $200,000 for the improvenont of Charleston harbor, $20,000 for the construction of a light-house on Paris Island, $5,000 for the improvement of the naviga. tion of the Pedeo River, and the restoration to the State of the Charleston Citadel, the military college of South Carolina, together with the refund of $1,500 import duties on the historic St. Michael chime of bells, are referred to by his friends as being more than has been accomplished for that State in the past fifty years. SPECIMEN REVENUE RAIDER.-Wm. Durham, one of the Revenue party who killed Amos Ladd, in this county, killed a man by the name of Ballou, in Greenville county, at a shooting match, and was sentenced to the penitentiary for ten years. He was pardoned by Scott or Moses, Scott we believe. The killing of Ballou is said to have been a bad crse. This Durham's brother was with another man, one Johnson, in the same county, who shot at one Jack Ward, who had a child upon his back, and missing Ward killed the child. Johnson broke jail after. wards and made his escape. This occurred a year or so ago. We get these facts from a responsible gentleman of Groenvillo.-Pickens Sentinel. TIr VISITING STATEsMEN.-The Philadelphia Times prints a letter from Wayne McVeigh regarding the expenses of the Louisiana Commis~' sion. He says that the members of the Commission were, from, the first, desirous of defraying their own expenses, but wore answered that it was a public service which they were performing, and that it was proper that the treasury only should gay them. Mr. Mc.. Veigh does not believe that the seae, retary would accept the check of any member in partial payment, but that when the late commissioners unite in paying the whole amount, protecting Gon, Hawley in. his abs4ence by acting for him as for themselves, they will be permitted to do so. HIGHWAY PRIvzLGEs.-His Honor, Judge Pressley, in charging the jury on Monday in the case of an issault and battery in the road in front of a man's house, expounded some law as to the privileges of persons on the highway which may be well for all to know. It is simply a right of way--a right to the use of such highway for pur poses of travel, &e. The soil is the property of the party owning the adjacent lands, and any one be coming boisterous or making him,. self otherwise objectionable in front of a man's house in a public road after first being ordered to leave,. may be ejected as a trespasser by the use of such force oply as Is necessary to get him away.-Dart ington .Netos.
