Those Cubic Feet,
Simnltaneously with the decision h
the trial justice's court in Winnslbort
against. the Charlotte, Columbia am
Augusta Railroad, comes the tni
nouncemnent that Comm issioner Bot
ham has rendered at decision tihat cot
ton must be rated by weight, and no
by ineasureimnlt, fr railroad traus
portation in this State.
The Conmmissioiler's decision ha:
been communicated to the commitlc<
of merchants here, in the followim
letter to Mr. J. It. Cummings, tie
secretary of that. committee:
Cor.UM , uIly 15, 1879.
Da.u Sin: I have this duy replie(
to Col. J. B. Palmer on tile ruesti,ot

Suppose, again, that tile Road ha<
been p)ermtitted to charge by the cubi

better of a continuous, rapid growth.
The mines are increasing in number
and value, and the population is being
added to daily by solid, substantial
men, who are investing a great amount
of capital in both mines and city in
proveinents. There is no retrogres
sion nor signs thereof and, prophecies
to the contrary notwithstanding, (de
velopment, im"lovoment and progress
show no signs of abatement. No
cloud appears as yet upon the horizon,
but the indications are that the un
clouded sun of Leadvillo's career is
yet iar from the noonday mark. I
most freely confess tlht any most
deliberately formned opinions have
been dashed to pieces and that the
decline of the camp recedeth as we
tadvamce. The discovery of new and
rich lodes so frequently and In such
wide-apart localities serve to kee) up
thc excitement, and are unq;uestiona
ble indications of the presence of rich
mineral in a very wide-spread terri
tory, the center of which is this city.
THE DIsCOvERIES
move into line and take rank with
soldierly precision. The Iighland
Chief, situated where heretofore no
mineral had been found, has fallen
into rank and moved to the front, and
stands among the most valuable. To
appreciate its value, one need only to1
know that within a few days after its
discovery it was bonded by its owners
at the after-discovered inadequate
price of $75,000. The obligees in the
bond had by its terms sixty days to
pay the sum. They took possession.
and I learn that within ten days had
taken out suflicient ore to pay ofi the
bond; and still the 4t.aftt bucket brlnrs
up the treasure with unabated rapili-1;
ty, and of increasing value, yielding
thousar.ds of dollars daily to the fortu
hnate purchasers. Does one wonder
that those who come are fascinated,
and watch with bated breath the work
in their shnfts? They are likely to
uncover a princely fortnne with'in a
week, a day, anl hour. Tle mani who
has struggled with poverty, and who
has now in his cabin a scanty supply
of food, may to-mor'row fare sumnptu
ously. Those who have lived in
elegance. and have by a reverse of
fortune been i educed to pauperism,
may in a day regain their elegance.
The capitalist, who has learned to love
the accumulation of wealth, finds here
a chanec for ra.>id money making.
The man who is moderately supplied
with the world's goods sees here a
chance to invest a small sum and gath
er in princely returns. The lame, the
blind, the young, the old, the rich, the
poor, the wise man, the mediocre, the
learned, the unlearned, the strong. the
weak, are all here sceking, seeking,
seeking, the few finding, the many
failing. Fvery tribe, tongue and

eLe New Law Preventing Partisan Draw
ings-Reduction of Pay.
The new law relating to jurors in
Jnited States Courts make 3 some very
mportant changes in that business.
heretofore the United States Marshels
iave been able to pack a jury to suit
~heir own idens of. justice, and inl the
Southi they liave usually picked out
Republicans jfoanthlat service, and a
food deal of Injustice has consequently
1)en1 perpetrated. The aict passed by
Jongress does away- with this partisan
'eature, as well as the obnoxious test
yath. TFhe juror's fee is also reduced
frem three to tWo -dollars a ' day. Tile
lectionl relating" to the sbllectionI of
uroro is as follows:.
"SECTION 2. That the per diem pay

GEaNTS :-For sixteen years I have been a great
sufferer froln Scrofula in its most distressing
forms. I have been confined to my room and
bed for fifteen years with scrofulous' ulcera
tions. The most approved remedies for suel
cases had been used, and the most eminent
physicians consulted, without an decided
beue'lt. Thus prostrated, distressed, despond
Ing, I was atlvised by )r. Ayer, of Floyd Coun
t '. Ga., to commence the use of your Compound
I'xtract Stillingia. Language is as insumci ent
to describe the relief I obtained front the use or
the Stlilingla as it, is to convey an adequate
idea of tihe Intensity of my suffering before
using your medicine : suficient to say, I aban
doned all other remedies and cont,inued the use
of your Itxtract of Stillingin, until 1 can say
truly "I am cured of all pain," of all disease
with nothing to obstruct thme active pursuit of t
my profession. More than eight months have
elapsed since this remarkable cure, without
any return of the disease. -
For the truth of the above Atatemnert I refer
tb any gentleman in Bartow County, da., and
to the mumbo a of the bar of Cherokee Circuit,
who are acquainted with me. I shall ever
remain, with the deepest gratitude,
Your obedient servant,

A MIRACLE.
- WEST POINT, GA., Sept. 10 1870.
GENTs:-My daughter was taken on the 26th
day of June, lsos, with what was supposed to be
Acute Rheumatism, and was treated for the
sane with no success. In March, following a
pieces of bone tegan to work out of the righi,
arm, and continued to appear till all the bone
fron, the elbow to the shlsulder joint came out.
Many pieces of bone canto out of right foot and
leg. 'lhe case was then pronounced one of
Wnito Swelling. After having been confined
about six years to her betd and the case con
sidered hopeless, I was induced to try Dr. Peat
bertons's Comptnd Extract of Stillingla. and
was so well satoislled with its effects that I have
continued the use of it until the present.
bly daughter was confined to her bed about
six years before she sat up or even turned over
without help. Shie now site up all day, ani
sews most of her time-has walked across the
room. 11cr general health is now good, and I
believe she will, as he' limbs gain strength
walk well. I attribute her recovery, with the
blessing of 0od. to the use of your invaluable
medicine.
