Mr. John Phillips an aged citizen of this County, departed this life at Summerton, Clarendon County, while visiting a friend, from a stroke of paralysis on morning of Sep tember 2d, 1337, aged about 75 years. He was highly esteemed by all who knew him, and he?d?ed at peace wJth his God and fellow man. Mark the perfect man and behold the upright for the end of that man is peace. His remains were interred at the Hills Church, near Stateburg, of which t?hurch he was a member. Ose Who Knew Him. Dr. Thos. Wells, a prominent physician of this County, died at his home at Lynchburg, on last Friday, 2d September, from paralysis, with which he was seized the day before-, and of which he had an attack about a year ago. Dr. Wells was, we suppose, about 50 years old, and a son of the late Irby S. Welte. Be was a useful man and will be missed in the tommaoity in which be lived. He was un married. Mrs. V. M. Bradford, relict oF Mr. John Bradford died yesterday. The funeral servi ces were solemnized at the Church of the Holy Cross at Stateburg, after which her re mains were interred in the grave yard of the same. Our esteemed and worthy fellow-citizen, J. Harvey Dingle died last night. He was 86 years old. His funeral services took place at the Methodist Church this afternoon. His remains were consigned to their last resting place in the family burying ground. A good man has passed away. Stuck to His Last to the Last. London Sumter, died very suddenly on last Saturday morning, He was a shoemaker by trade, and truly might it be said of him that he stuck to his last till death came along and took him off at last-. The death of London Sumter is very mach regretted by our citi zens. He was a good democrat and possessed many noble traits of character. A good col ored man has passed away in the death of London Sumter. Of all Men Hymen is the Best. Married on 29th of August by Trial Justice W. A. Nettles, Mr. John H. Wright to Miss Marv J. Dean. Religious. There will be- preaching at the Baptist Church on ?ext Sunday. Union Services were held at the Methodist Church on last Sunday evening. Rev. N. W. Edmunds preached an instructive sermon. Bishop Howe delivered an ableaod interest ing bomiletic discourse at the Episcopal Church on last Sunday evening. The follow ing named persons were confirmed : Miss E. Larousaeliere, T. M. DeLorme, M.F. DeLorme, Horace Curtis, H. G. Clark, Yeadon Delgar and Robt. Delgar. Don't Know a @oed Thing. We hope the many strong reasons spoken of, by our St. Luke correspondent for the for mation of a new County are based upon something stronger than mere speculations in ; q?ce and land "fzdures." "Let well enough alone" is a good rule to adhere to in this life. But even Heaven itself with her many advan tages won't suit everybody. The argument would be that the Judgment Seat is too far to ride to and they would be after making little judgment seats all along the road, you know. P. S.?Josh Billings says that "some peo ple dont know when they have got e good thing." ?^-m% I t mm- - -- The Half is Not Told. When the Queen of Sheba paid a visit to Sing Soiomoo and saw that bis goods were not only fine but super-fine she exclaimed, "The half is not told !" We know that this is likeiy to be the experience with the citi zens of Sumter ahd adjoining Counties when they walk into Brows & Chandler's clothing establishment and see with admiring eyes the excellent and magnificent stock of clothing of the latest and nobbiest styles of this and Eu ropean countries. To be sure the half is not told. If you don't believe it just pay them a visit and look at their model establishment which is one of the most attractive of its kind in the State. Still the half is not told. If you doubt this, just give Mr. Brown or the two Mr. Chandlers a chance to wait on you and you will find them the three most charm ing men to be found in any one establishment in this country. So much so that they might well be dubbed the C's. And "Lo, "the half is not told!" See their pictorial advertise ment elsewhere and consider not the lilies of the valley but the salvation of your pocket. mm I I ? Unfortunate. The arrest for burglary of Mr. John I. Green a few weeks ago in Charlotte, X. C., is much to be regretted by bis many friends in Sumter. A full account of it can be found on our outside. Last week Attorney-General ?arle went to Charlotte and investigated Mr. Green's case, and he has informed us that he is fully con vinced that Mr* Green is innocent. We sin cerely hope that his innocence Will be established beyond a doubt when he is tried in October. Burglary is a hanging crime in North Carolina, and the Charlotte Democrat in commenting upon it says that "it is about time for Gov. Scales to quit pardoning bur glars or commuting their death sentences. Not long ago we had to insist on hanging two negro desperadoes in this city who burgla rized the residence of Capt. Strickland. The amonnt stolen does not matter so much as the risk the sleeper runs of being murdered by a burglar. We have recently had some expe rience of a bad and dangerous burglar enter ing our bed room. We think we were for?u nate in "escaping with oor life, but forever hereafter we intend to demand that the law, hanging, be executed on all convicted bur glars. Several residences in this city have been burglarized within the past few weeks. There must be a few more hangings. - i im? i I 1 -- Summer Gardening. At this season of the year out* citizens usually have little else in their gardens besides grass and weeds, as the majority of them make no effort to plant or cultiv?t^ after the summer heat sets in and Spring vegetables are parched up. That fine vege-' tables can be grown for Fall use, we have seen demonstrated frequently, and on yester day a tray of fioe looking well developed vegetables were received by us from the gard eu of Mr. Cba3. H. Moise, accompanied by the following note, which proves that not withstanding the excessive heat of the past Summer he now has vegetables?the result as he says, of giving the soil a fair chance : 21T. G. Ostern, Dear Sir : I send some specimens of what our poor sandy soil can do, if we give it a fair chance, viz ; two cucumbers out of one dozen gathered by me this morning. Some plugs of nutmeg melon out of six gathered by rne, leaving Several more ripening on the vines., a few cow peas in the ham. raised by my son, aged 12, and gathered by me from the vine live feet from the ground.

For over four years I have been a great sufferer from a terrible form of Nasal Catarrh. T was greatly annoyed with a constant roar ing in my head and my hearing became very much impaired. The discharge from my nose was profuse and very offensive, and my general health impaired. I tried most all prominent physir cians, but they did not cure me, and I used varI6.u3 adtertiaed preparations without benefit. One day I chanced to rsad a remarkable article written by .1 prominent citizen of Athens, Ga., stating that he had been per manently cured by the use of B. B. B.? Botanic Blood Balm. Reing skeptical on the subject, I wrote to him on the subject and received a most encouraging answer to the effect that he had been cured long enough to be thoroughly satisfied that no return of the disease would ensue. I then sent to the drug store of T. E. Smith & Bro., and purchased B. B: B:, and to my utter astonishment and satisfaction, the use of ten bottles has restored my general health, stopped the roaring sensation, entirely healed and cured the nasal catarrh and I am proud to recommend a blood remedy with such powerful curative properties. I shall continue its use a little longer and feel confident that I will be entirely cured of one of the most obstinate cases of nasal catarrh in the country. The business men of c:r town know of my case. N. C. EDWARDS. Lampassas Springs, Texas, May 1, ?33o. BLOOD OF A TSXAN. For six years 1 have been aflhefed with blood poison, which continued to increase, while physicians were attempting to cure me. One bottle of B. B. B. has made me feel like a new man, aud I am now rapidlr recov ering. W. II. DAVIS. San Marcos, Texas, May ri, \*?r>. BAD BLOOD AT BRUNSWICK, Ga, I have tried B. B. B. and found it a great I thing for the blood. I also had Rheumatic Pains and the use of one bottle of B. B. B has done the work, but I will finiah up on the second bottle as a clincher. May God spread it to every one is my prayer. W. R. ELMS. Brunswick, Ga., April 23,183C.
