The Bowe Scale Co. represented by Messr3 Chapman Bros., of Angosta, Ga., have sent aa? charming picture representing one oftbat Company's srales and a most precious commo? dity ec its platform being weighed. Its "too sweet." We ara much obliged. The late census of the United States says that a large portion (we do not remember the exact 5gu res) of oar people is illiterate. The sew Marshal thinks this is an error. Judg iag frota the stacks of letters be is daily re ceiTiog from offlreseekers, nearly everybody in the State caa at least writev Mr. W. 6. Durant, a nephew.of onr Sheriff anda constable in York County, while drying ioanrst a negro desperado last Monday week was shot through the body and died from his wound a few hours afterwards. The mur? derer escaped, and at last accounts Vas still at huge, though every effort is being made to arrest aad bring bim to justice. Os oar outside, we publish a ^history of the j city of Pullman. The success of this enter? prise, shows the happy result of a proper eombmation of labor and capital, and is a pie for others to follow. It also shows the wonderful advantages of a town io-which there is no drunkenness. We would be glad to hear of more cities like Pullman. The Methodist congregation are still ona boom in their church-building movement. Last Sunday, after the regular services, s meeting of the Church was called and over %ltlHO was secured in reliable subscriptions, . all lo be paid by tba 1st October. The sub? scribers expect to pay each year the amount sabacribea Sunday aa til the building is paid for. So we may say theta neat, comfortable , church is assured for the Methodists of Sum tar. We have received a copy of the "M i nu tes of jg the Siaety-eighth Session of the Sooth Caro i fias Aenual Conference of the Methodist I Episcopal Church South, held in Sumter December 12-171883." lt is a model of typographical beac ty and orderly arrange I meat. Chas, A. Calvo, Jr. did the printing, I for Ber. Messrs. Power and Chreitzberg, the ' editors, aid in looking over its contents one is puzzled to know whether most to congratu? late, the editors on the splendid work of the I printer, or the printer oe having such able The Industrial Fair. The Fair at Charleston bas opened under most favorable auspices. The exhibits are abovetbeaverageboth in quantity and quality. The attendance will doubtless be large before tba/ close of the exhibition, and bas already iteres ted to a considerable extent. The weather it delightful and Charleston will I doubtless score a happy bit in having a most succemfal exhib? t io n. Mason's Cotton Picker. Mr. C. T. Matoo, Jr. is busily engaged fix ?lag np hit: Picker for a trip to the Fair at Cbarlerton, where it will doubtless be the { centre of attraction to those interested in cot- j too cultiv?t ion. Tbere have been numerous . efforts made to discribe it, but an actual in? spection it necessary before the average mind mut sufficiently naderstand tbe wonderful in Jmttioo to be convinced that it will be a suc? cess, and tbere will be much eagerness to see j tba wonder. Mr. Mason expects to take it to j Charleston during the last week of the Fair. 2. O. G. T. The meeting last Wednesday evening was ; unusually interesting. Six candidates were j Itjttrtad and the officers for the ensuing quar- | tar were installed. The following are the j Batlow Walsh. W. C. T. C. M. Hosst Jr., P. W. C. T. Mitt Sarah Scaffe, W. V. T.

Mr. and Mrs. S. A. Norris lost their infant child last Thursday night. Dr. Joseph Yates, a physician and a tem? pe ance worker of Charleston, was buried in that City Sunday afternoon. His death was very sudden. Mrs. Hortense Panknio, wife of Dr. C. F. Panknin of Charleston, and daughter of the late Lucien James of Rafton Creek, died on the 5th instant. She leaves a large family and many friends to mourn her loss. Married. By Rev. C. C. Browo, at the residence of the bride's mother, on Sunday the 10th, Miss Emma Norton and Mr. J. L. Epperson. Petty Theiving. Jost after going to press last Tuesday, a colored man brought np an advertisement for os to insert, stating that his horse bad been stolen a few hours before, from one of the lots in town. There is a large amount of petty thieving carried on in the back lots of our town and an effort should be made to stop it ; and when an offender ts caught, let Judge Lynch give him a sound flogging. j-mmm>- -mw - The Town Council. Are still engaged in their work of improve? ment. The West-enders are braggiog about their fine streets aod good side walks. The East-end would like to brag some, and will do so if Council will only give it a chance. Some pedestrians give a woeful description of the road about the railroad crossing on Liber? ty Street. The Council have determined to put up gut? tering on the Hall. They have ordered 200 more shade trees to be put out, some of them to be on Monumental square. They have already put out 185. They are talking about a new fire-preil, and-we believe that is all. Our Charleston Advertisers. Messrs. C. Bart & Co. offer for sale a full line of fruits, as well as a large supply of seed potatoes. Try them and see what good bar? gains you can make. Wm. M. Bird & Co. tell ns about their lard ?ne. As we viii raise cotton, it would be well to make it supply, in a small degree, some of oar table wants, It is cheaper than lard, and "Bill Arp" says it is good. I. Biller's New York Dye House is in full blast ?nd will dye anything in the way of clothing. Give him a trial. Besolutions. The Executive Committee of the Republi? can Party of Sumter County, in meeting as? sembled, do tender to the President of the United States and to those gentlemen who kindly assisted in obtaining the nomination of Mr. T. J. Toomey as Marshall of South Carolina, our most hearty thanks, knowing Mr. Tuomey to be a tried and true Republi? can and an honest citizen and believing that in his bands the important duties of the office will be well administered. SAMUEL LEE, Chairman. Jons B. JOHNSTON, Acting Secretary. mw** - Court. We neglected to mention in onr brief notice last week, that Solicitor Dargan"s ill health prevented his attendance, and M:>j. Marion Moise was appointed iu hisftcad. He Siled that position with his accustomed grace and abili? ty. His Honor pushed matter? most vigorous? ly during the past week, giving but ehort recess for dinner, and having as little play? time as possible.

Quite a number of cases were continued to the next session. This week, Court is engaged on the civil Docket. No cases of importance are to be j tried and Court will adjourn probably by j Thursday. The New Mardbal. Mr. T. J. Tuomey, who has been nomina- . ted by the President, as Marshal of South } Carolina, was born in Ireland in 1841. His j father. Ha.rthobr.ew Tuomey, moved over to j this country shortly after the birth of his son, I bringing his family with him, and located in | Charleston. Young Tuomey was educated at j St. Mary's school in Columbia, where he re- j mai ned four years. After leaving school he j was apprenticed to a brick layer, and became | quite expert at handling a trowel. When the war broke out, Mr. Tuomey enlisted in the Ricblaod Volunteers, Col. Gregg's Reg?? meut, and after it disbanded, joined the 15th j Regiment, where be remained until just bc-I fore the close of the war, when be was ap- j pointed Aid to General Kershaw. His mili- j tary record was good, and be still numbers his old comrade-in-arms among his best friends. After the surrender be settled in Charles? ton, and worked and voted with the Demo? crats until 1868, 1 'when becoming disgusted with the Democrats for their apathy and in? difference in the mayoralty contest between Lesesne and Pillsbury, he registered an oath nover to vote another Democratic ticket." Moving to Sumter shortly after, and leaving all his Democratic proclivities in Charleston, he joined the Republicans aod has worked wita tb m and for them ever since. He was not an activa politician at that time, but en? gaged himself with energy in his business, aod has always been knov?*'aTaYn'rifty, go ahead worker.- .J -\ "> In 1874 he was elected School Commissum er of Sumter County, and held that office for fonr years. No charges, so far as we know, have ever been brought against him, for mis? management in that important office. In 1878 the Democrats elected County officers, and Mr. Tuomey retired from politics, and devoted himself to his trade, during which time be erected some of the best buildings in Sumter. His present appointment seems to have been a genuine surprise. Sam Lee was the main morer, and it was his influence that made the effort successful ; although Smalls was also favorable to the nomination. His confirmation is reasonably certain, and as we are to have a Republican, we would soon? er it would be T. J. Tuomey than any of his competitors, and we think we speak the senti? ment of the County in so saying. His well known honesty in all the business enterprises with which he bas been counected in Sumter has given bira a good financial standing with our business men, and we think the Senate will be wise to confirm the nomination so un? expectedly made, for, barring politics, we think we have a good Marshal. - ?- ? ? i Pensioners in Sumter County.

The last number of the Temperance Worker contains the Valedictory of Rev. J. L. Stokes and the Salutatory of its new editor, Rev. A. Coke Smith. Mr. Smith's reputation asa writer and thinker will do much to give the Worker a wider popularity than it has ever enjoyed. It is engaged in one among the most important enterprises in the civilized world and we wish it God speed, and will gladly give itali the aid possible in its glori? ous work. Vicks Floral Gvide. with its wealth of illustration is on our table. Ii contains an exhaustive amount of information about flowers and their cure and culture. The Southern World, a Semi-monthly Maga? zine published in Atlanta Ga. at Si per annum, will issue a mammoth edition on March 15th, and begin the publication of 'Rose Darrel,' a thrilling serial by John Esten Cooke, of Virginia. The Southern World is a Southern Journal of much value, and deserves a hearty support from reading public. Another County Heard Prom. Mr. WT. D. Garrisoj, a prominent planter of Anderson coan ty, S. C. says he has used Norman's Neutralizing Cordial in his family and it has proved eficacious in every instance be had occasion to try it. This is the verdict from many and a trial will convince you that it is a good remedy. Have You Asked Your Physician About it? 'Yes.' Well, what does he suv ? 'That it is only anoiher of the thousand-and-one med? ical humbugs.' Is he helping you? 'No.' Losing grovnd steadily ? 'I'm afraid so.' Not as well this year as last? 'Very much worse.' Then take a friend's adv ice and write to Drs. Starkey & Talen, of 1109 Girard Street, Philadelphia, giving Hiern a plain statement of your case. Ask them if they have ever treated a similar ca?e with their Compound Oxygen, and if, in their judg? ment, there is hope of your deriving any real and permanent benefit from its use. Ask them also to send you a report of some case like yours which they have treated successful? ly. All this will cost you nothing, a? these 2'hj/sicians moke no char ye for consultations. If tba evidence they furnish is not satisfactory, then the matter can end, but if they should put you in possession of facts and evidence ; going lo show that thousands of persons suf? fering from chronic diseases far worse, it may be, tbitn yours, have bceu restored to compa? rative good health during the past thirteen years by the use of Compound Oxygen, the trifling effort of writtmg may prove the means whereby you will find a permanent re? lief from suffering, for which you will never j cease to be profoundly thankful. If, however, you are not ready to consult ? them at present, drop a postal-card and ask them to send you their Treatise on Compound Oxygen. The information in regard to their new Treatment which you will gain from this Treatise will enable you to judge of the chances in your favor which it offers. The retention of any waste matter in the system produces injury. The collection of 'phlegm' or diseased mucus in time of cold or throat affection should be promptly removed. Dr. BnlFs Cough Syrup does it more quickly and effectually than any other cough syrup made. _ How a woman can keep on talking while she twists op her back hair and has ber mouth full of hairpins is a mystery not yet ex? plained. A child tossing in its sleep indicates worms. An army vt them are at work eating the vitals away. One dose of Shrioer's Indian Vermi? fuge will destroy them and save its life. Japan has a weather bureau also ; but it i3 wisc and discreet, and doesn't predict rain until after the rain has soaked things for a day or two. The cures made by Brewer's Lung Restorer are miraculous, yet they occur daily. Cnn you afford (after so much evidence) to be skeptical? Brewer's Lung Restorer, the great lung and throat remedy, is for sale by Dr. D. J. Auld, Agent. Dr. H. L. Battle, Jr., Wad ley, Ga., says : 'Brown's Iron Bitters are very popular in this section and give entire satisfaction.' 'What are you writing such a big hand for, Pat?' 'Why, you see my grandmother is dafe, and I'm writting aloud letter to her.' AUGUSTA, January 10, 1883. Allow me to say that your H. H. P. far surpasses any Liver Medicine I have ever used. It promotes health, digestion, and purifies the blood. No family should be without it. M. NEWSOME. 'I'm down to bed rock,' said a Pittsburg husband, as he swayed the cradle containing his howling son and heir. What will care the worst case of dyspep? sia ? What will insure a hearty appetite and increased digesdon ? What will cure general debility and give a new lease of life? What will dispel nervous depression and low spirits? What will restore exhausted mothers to full strength ? What will strengthen nerves and muscles? What will enrich the blood ? What will enable yon to overcome weakness, wake? fulness and lack of energy? What will prevent chills and fever and other effects of malariar poison ? Brown's Iron Bitters. Il is well to know this. Kendall's Spavin Cure. Los Angels, Cal., Feb. 26th, 3882. Messrs. B. J. Kendall & Co.-Having used your Kendall's Spavin Cure, I find it the best remedy for the horse that has ever been used on this coast.
