How the Death of Got. Fatrlck No blc Was Mourned In 1840. The Hon. Patrick Noble was born in 1787 and died April, 1840. He grad uated in 1806 at Princeton College, New Jersey; was admitted to the Ba?* and practiced law with the lion. John C. Calhoun, his first cousin, in Abbeville, about 1810 to 1838. He was a member of the South Carolina Hour.e of Representatives, 1812, 18? 8, Mti it Ml !S82. Speaker if iiu* r.O'tse In 1818 to 1824 and 1832 State Sena tor and President of the Seiu.te In 1836. In December, 1838, he was elected Governor of the State and died while In office. The following general order was issued shortly af ter Ms death by his successor in of fice: "Executive Department, Columbia, 28th Of April, 1840. "Throughout the civilized world it is an established usage for States to mourn for the death of their bene factors on assuming the high execu tive functions of South Carolina, to which the Lieutenant Governor has been constitutionally called by the death of his lamented predecessor, the Inte Patrick Noble, there would be a dereliction of his solemn duties were he to pass, unnoticed, this sorrowful event. "Of the late Governor Noble, it may be truly said, 'he was ilrst in the hearts of his coutnrymen. his name hallowed by a chastitv *?t uiotivo that disarmed reproach ami made powerless invective. Entering the councils of the State at an early peri od of his life for a series of years as representative and senator from Ab beville, he has been successively call ed to preside over each branch of the Legislature, as Speaker of the House and President of the Senate, and as voluntary requital was lastly honored with the first ofllce of the Slate.' "Of his eminent virtues as a man his mild and forbearing rule as Chief Magistrate, looking with deep respect to the execution of the laws, and at the same time mingling executive clemency with the rigid severity of the law, it is unnecessary to speak, or, of the general fidelity and self devotedness with which he discharg ed al lthe duties of the elevated and sacred trust confided to him. They are fully and gratefully appreciated by the intelligent people he has long and elllclently served. In obedience to the force of general sympathy and as n tribute due to the Commander ln-chlef, the Magistrate and the man, the major generals throughout the State, will cause the order to be ex tended to their separate commands, requiring all the ofllcers to wear the I usual badge of mourning on the left arm for thirty days; and that on the 10th of May the commandants at tho Citadel, in Charleston, and the Arsen al, in Columbia, will cause a gun to be fired at every half-hour, beginning at sunrise and ending at sunset, and the Executive respectfully reconi | mends that the 17th day of May the citizens of the State nssemhle in their respective churches to unite in con dolence for the loss which South Car ollnt has sustained. "By order of the Governor. "Beaufort T. Watts. "Acting Aide de Camp." Governor Noble married September 5, 1816, Elizabeth Pickens, grand daughter of Prig, ('.en. Andrew Plck ens.

In fighting to keep the blood pure the White eorcuscles attack disease germs like tigers. Bui often germs multiply so fnst the little fighters are overcome. Then see pimples, boils, eczema, saltrheum and sores multiply and strength and appetite fall. This condition demands Electric Bitters to regulate stomach, liver and kidneys and to expel poisons from the blood. "They are tho best blood purifier," writes C. T.
