THE NEWS AND HERALD. WINN8BORO. S. C. -SATURDAY, ARCH2a, : 1870. R. MARANS DA VIN, EDITOR. JNQ. S. REYNOLDS. ASSOC)ATC EDIToR. THE REv. JAMES DEKovEN, who was twice elected bishop of the Epis copal Church, but was rejected by the vote of a m\jority of the dioceses in the United States, on account of his ritualism, died suddenly of apoplexy on the 19th inst. He was recently elected rector of St. Mark's Church, Philadelphia. AT LAST accounts Senator Gordon was lying dangerously ill in Wash ington. Senator Hampton and him self are the only absentees; but as the Democrats have a majority of eight in the Senate they do not absolutely re quiro the presence of these gentlemen. That both will soon be able to take their seats is the earnest wish of all good men, irrespective of party. IN THE NEW distribution of the coin mittees of the Senate, Thurman gets the chairmanship of the Judiciary Committee; Eaton, of Foreign Rela tions; Bayard, of Finance; Saulsbury, of Privileges and Elections; McPher son, of the Military ; Gordon, of Coin xuerce ; and Davis, of West Virginia, of Appropriations. There are thirty five committees in all, of which the Republicans get the chairmanships of three unimportant ones. Senator Butler is chairman of the conmmitte on Civil Service and Retrenchment. A WASHINGTON letter reports that Congressmen Aiken, Evins and Till man voted in the caucus for Black burn, O'Connor for Randall, and Richardson for Cox. We regret to see that the delegation was not solid for Randall. He has been pre-emi nently able, and if partial at all his leanings have been to the South in the appointment of committees. An out sider cannot understand the drift of politics in Washington, but on general principles it would not be unwise to 're-elect a man who has experience and 'has made a record that even such Radical sheets as the New York 'Times are compelled to cnnmme:d. GEORGIA is a fortunate State. She Is on the point of reducing the interest on a large portion of her debt to four per cent. The new Garrard bonds, eocalled from the originator, now being issued, are entirely novel. They are issued in denominations of live dollars, if we are not mistaken, and are about the size of the ordinary greenback or bank note. These two facts combined are expected to cause the bonds to circulate freely in tr'ade, thus causing a priactical inliation of the currency without violating the constitution. IT was at first fear'ed that holders of the rectired bonds would not accept the Garrar'd issue at reduced rates of interest, but State Treasurer Rtenfroe announces t hat ho has already received orders f'or the full amount. The Atlanta C7onstitu tion asserts that only thr'eoecorpora tions in America are floating four' per cent. bonds, the United States, the City of Boston and the State of G'cor gia. Happy indeed is the condition of a Southern State that enjoys such credit as to dispose of four per' cent. bonds at par'. Will South Carolina ever reach this point? The Lost Tribes of Israel. No set of men have ever been foun~d so often, in so many out of -the way and unexpectet\ places, and under conditions so var'iedI, as the famous ten tibes of Israel. Whenever the origin of a nation Is obscure it is laid to the account- of these ten tribes. Traces of them in their wanderings have been found through Asia, as they traveled eastward, up to Behring's.Straits, dow a into America and as far along as Mexico and Peru. The red men of' America are ascribed to these tribes. .The Aztecs, who pre ceded them, and built mounids all along the Western plains, are asserted to have been of Isr'aelitic origin. But it has been reserved for modern theorists to attribute to the old wvan derer's a mutch more resp)ectable progeny. The Rev. Dr. Prentiss, of Charleston, now attemplt.s to prove that the people of Great Brit-ain are Ephraim, or the ten tribes, and that the United States are Manasseh. He quotes numerous passages fronm the prop1icts to support his theory. Ephrai was diAtinuct from Judah. It accepted the Messiah. It was to be an insular nation, having many colo nie, and lending to all the wvorld and borrowing fronm none. Several co ineidences mentioned are quite curi ous. But the synopsis of the sermon is not Adll enough to showv the argu. ment in all its fore. We shall not subsoribe to the theory till we hear more of it. )~O~~Vius as beQn scattqring ayaloie, XN 1Ws OP TIE, DAY. The young Prince Louis Napoleon who is on his way to Africa, will pay a pious pilgrinage to St. Ilelena. Mr. Randall was serenaded at his hotel on Tuesday night . II. is said lnthat all factions are reconciled to his election. Monticello, the residence of Tholma Jeferson, was sold1 on Wednesday iin partition between the heirs of the late Commodore Urah P. Levy, to Jell'er son A. Levy, the princip~al heir, for $1O,1O:O. The Kentucky Supreme Court has decided that the statute mgainst gamt ing, which enables a person losing at a laro table to recover his losses from the proprietor, will not, work the other way, and allow the proprietor to recover losses from lortunato play ers. A bill mnking prepayment of poll tax a requisite to voting has passed the lower house of the Texas Legisla ture. One member made a speech in Spanish. advocating the bill, and said that In the last election one thousand Mexicans had crossed over and voted In Texas. Federal Judge Rives, of Virginia, has indicated his purpose to continue his war against the State judges for failure to put colored men upon their juries. In his charge to the grand jury at Lvnehburg on Tuesday, Judge Rives took the same position at, in his charge at Danville lately, which led to the indictment of the live judges already involved. A Special dispatch from Marshal, Texas, says that on WYednesday ight., after the Ward & Barrymore conbina tion had fiished playiig, the comllpa ny Welnt to the (tepot to await a train. Maurice Barry more and B. C. Porter, and a lenmale attache of the couubinia tlon, were in a lunch-room, when .las. Currie, a detective, citered and made slighting remarks about the lady, to which exception was taken by Barry more and Porter. After sone words Currie drew a pistol and shot Porter in the abdomen, killing him almost inhstaltly ; then turning he shot Barry more through the elbow, the ball coining out. under the left shoulder making a severe if not dangerous wound. Porter and Ba: rynmre were unarmed. Currie was placed in jail. FOR I NTENDAT.

TIhis Sarsaparilla is a combination of vegetable alteratives -Stillingia, Man drake, Yellow Dock - with the Iodides of Potassium and Iron, and is the most efficacious medicine yet known for the diseases it is intended to cure. Its ingredients are so skilfully com bined, that the full alterativo effect of each is assured, and while It is 50 mild as to be harmless even to children, it is still so effectual as to p urge out from the system those impurities and corruptions which develop Into loathsome disenhe. Tihe reputation it enjoys Is derived from its cures, and the confidence which promnincent physicians all over the coun try repose in it, prove their experience of its usefulness. Cediflicates attesting its virtues have accumulated, and arc constantly being received, and as many of these cases are publicly known, they furnish convincing evidence of the superiority of this Sar sapar'ilIa over every other alterative ] medicine, So generally is Its superi ority to any other medicine known, that we need do no more thtan to assure the public that the best qualities It has ovet possessed are strictly maintained. - - Pna'Antn My Df, i, C, AYER & CO,, L.owell, Mas,, P'raoiuc4 Uae analynEEat Clem.se, SOLD nr ALn $'RUGGZSTs EVSRTWJIBR3 FRESHI OcS Crac'1.ei, MILK BISOUITS, G1NGErI3 SNAP'U CAKE4, 40,. feb15~ Pav vonr nisaorljto b E 'Ihis Important orga" wcighs but about three pounds, n all the blood in a living petson (about three gallons) passes throuigh it at le.st once every half hour, to iave the bile and other inpurities strained or tilteried from it.
