Thus spoke Senator B R Tillman in an interesting talk this morning on the investigation that has been been in progress for the past two weeks into the affairs of the State hospital for the insane. Senator and Mrs Tillman arrived yesterday from Atlanta, wh^re Mr Tillman rested for two weeks in a sanitarium, and are spending the day with their son, Mr H C Tillman.

Enclosure to Mr McCollough's Letter 19th January, 1742. To Henry McCollough, Esq. Th#? Hiimhle Renresentation of the Inhabitant* of the Townahip of Williamiburg Sheweth that being informed hi* Majesty -j been graciously pleased to Constitute and appoint you his Commissioner, with full power to inquire into all abuses with respect to the grants of lands and the quit rents payable thereupon and toward preventing and determining all disi putes in relation to the premises. We beg leave to represent that by hi* Majesty'* 43d Instruction to his Governor there were eleven Townships set apart for the reception of such Protestants as might come and settle in this province. That in consideration of the encouragement offered us by the Governor and Council and from the cer^ 1 J - J ?_ U-J .... lainiy we upyreneuucu, we uou under his Majesty's Royal Instructions to his Governor to be secured in our properties, and the remainder of the Township Lands would remain only for the uses directed by his Majesty's Instructions which would have enabled us to have brought over our Friends and Relatives to settle in our Neighborhood. We under these encouragements transported ourselves and families to this province, and settled in Williamsburg Township. But to our great concern we have found the lands in this Township become a common unrestricted range for all persons whatsoever; the best lands therein taken up by persons who have not at this day settled the same. Nor in all probability ever intended to reside therein, some of us have been sued for trespasses on land pointed out to us by the Deputy Surveyor, and have been cast in considerable damages and others became tenants rather than remove their families. Sometime past we presented oui humble petition to the Governor and Council, setting forth our said Grievances, and praying relief, bul we could obtain no answer. We therefore take leave to trouble yon with a copy of the same,wherein the hardships we have labored under are enumerated, which we humbly submit to your consideration. The River, by which we can have any conveyence of our goods to c markpt. in rpndpred difficult in the navigation, by reason of great trees which fall therein, and which indeed the General Assembly at our humble application to pass a law for clearing the same. Now, the whole burthen of that work falls on the Residenters,while those who are possessed of large tracts of the most valuable land contribute nothing to it. We have letters from our Friends in Ireland acquainting us of their desire of coming here,if we would in any shape encourage them,which we have hitherto declined,because of the lands being run and possessed by ' others. We take leave,Sir,to assure you that every fact alleged in our said Petition and in this,our humble representation, shall be effectually proved, with the addition of many more particulars, when you will please to require it. We pray therefore, you will take the premises into consideration, and Hie Mind Expj As I frick iBfrtreieit fe Actable Vbei Priptr Aid ti Bitrfflii Is filTii. A I 1.-1. M At-- 1 U-_1*U A low siavc ui ine general ucai in is dow the accepted cause of back* wardness in children. So in the caae of a backward child it is best to look towards building up its health. It will usually be found that the main trouble is in the food, in lack of assimilation and digestion. Hencejcare should be taken in the kind of food given to the child. This, with plenty of air and exercise, should bring about a change for the better. Watch the condition of the bowels, to note whether the waste is being passed off or not, or whether it is being passed too freely. If either condition prevails give a small dose of that gentlest of all laxative-tonics, Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. Thous ands mothers will testily to tne wonders it has wrought in the lives of their own children, and for that reason legions of families like those of Mrs Daisy McBroom, Hillsboro, Ind, are never without it in the house. She is the mother of Lucile and has been using Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepein for Ludle since she was two. Mrs McBroom says it saved Lucile's life. It is the standard family medicine in the McBroom home. It is pleasant to the taste and so perfectly safe that it is given to infants, and yet is equally effective that you will relieve us from the many oppressions and hardships we labor under in relation to our possessions in the Township of Williamsburg.

The General Assembly last Friday unanimously elected State Senator Thomas J Mauldin,of Pickens,as Circuit Judge of the newly established Judicial circuit. There was no op- j position whatever to Mr Mauldin's election. He has been in the General Assembly, first as a member of the House of Representatives, then as State Senator, for about ten years ! and is looked upon as one of the conservative,level-headed, clean men ' in political life. He graduated from ! the Citadel academy about twentyfive years ago and has been practici ing law in Pickens for a number of 1 years.

Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin has no equal as a cure for constipation, indigestion, biliousness, headaches, sour stomach, gas on the stomach, liver trouble and kindred complaints. It has so many advantages that those who once use it forever after discard cathartics, salts, pills and other coarse remedies, for they are seldom advisable and should never be given to children. Families wishing to try a free sample bottle can obtain it postpaid by addressing Dr W B Caldwell, 419 Washington St, Monticello, 111.

Quite a pleasant as well as profit- t able evening was spent at the town hall on Monday, February 16, when a box supper was given by the Rural School Improvement associaI tion. Many were the different features of entertainment. Here, at the fishing pond, might be seen the busy anglers; there, in her tent, the Gypsy foretelling for each his future; while still others were competing in the different guessing contests or else cutting cakes for the prizes. There was great excitement when the boxes were auctioned off by Mr S T Thompson. The prices for which these were sold clearly showed the competency of the auctioneer. But for our greatest pleasure we feel indebted to the Kingstree band. Fifteen of its worthy members were with us and their excellent music readily attests their good training. Each of these shall always have our commendation and gratitude. Misses Stubbs and McNab, teachers in the Rome school, spent the week-end with Mrs J A Ferrell. Another of the Rome teachers*. Miss Lillian Salters, spent the weekend with her mother, Mrs S M Salters. lUi UVCICILC i^aviu, TTUW i<9 aw^uuing a business college in Columbia,ia spending several days here with his parents, Mr and Mrs J D David.

She left last week for Bennettsville, where she will visit her brother, Dr H R May. Great excitement was caused last Monday afternoon when Mr J C Everett's home caught fire. But, by the heroic efforts of the "bucket brigade" the flames were soon extinguished. Henry E Davis, Esq, of Florence spent Saturday with his father, Mr J E Davis. X Y Z.
