How TO BE BEAUTIFUL AND HAPPY.-Men and
women are naturally proud they do like TO look
well, and we think it right, but do Iot have any
sympathy with that class whose disheveled locks
fly in every direction, when with the least care
their whole heads may be made surprisingly beau
tlful. Every white, gray and faded lock may be
restored to its original color, beauty and lustre
while the scalp is clsansed from its flying dand-
ruff, and every hair prevented from falling off
Yes, and, vary likely, have luIurisnt growth of
new hair cover their entire head, where now
there is none. But how this be done? By
using Tebbett's Physiological Hair Regeneration,
which never soils the finest fabric, is richly per
tuned, has NO equal as hair dressing, is used
among the most fashionable exclusively, and pro-
nounced the standard preparation of America

at Berlin, the jury, at the Mercsr county
circuit court, last week. found him guilty.
AT the last term of court he was tried and
IL ont of IL jurymen were for acquittal.-
Now II are for conviction, and some people
say the evidence was not so strong against
him now as at the last trial. This looks as
though jury trials were something of a lot
terry.
Messrs. Gawley and Peasants were coun-
sci for the defendant, and we learn from Mr..
Hawley that it Is pretty certain that a new
trial will be granted. If this Is not done
ne says the case will go the supreme court
and new trial be claimed, and, without
doubt. granted.

~, with children and adults, attributed to other

Children having Worms require immediate at

FoR THE LEGIsLATURE.-Ther radical dis I'm
ion party in this county do not lack for men
who are ambitious for office and who will
stick by that party-as long as there is a
chance for office. Two years ago J.W Lloyd,
of Edgington, wanted to be sheriff, and A. S.
Coe, of Cos. wanted to 60 to the legislature.
This did not suit the court house barnacles, as
il would not do to let the office of sheriff go
out of their clique; therefore trade was
made by which Merrill was to be sheriff, and
Lloyd 90 to the legislature that year and Coe
the next time. That was the arrangement,
aud the Offices were thus disposed of by the
barnaoles, the people having nothing to do
with it exesps to do as they were told by the
barnaoles. Under this arrangement Mr.. Coe
is TO be nominated for the legislature. He
has several competitors, but they will ''su b.
side" when they learn that the office has al
ready been disposed of.

The State Bank Notes.

We confess that we were much
pleased with the decision of the Su.
preme Court of New York in relation
to the bills of the Bank of the State.
Unless the State intends absolutely
to repudiate this form of her oblioa-
tons, these notes are worth dollar fo,
dollar, which the denomination of
the bill may call for on its face.
What security had the comparatively
poor bill-holder for the redemption
OF this paper obligation to pay? No
thing whatever but the credit. honor
and plighted faith of the State. They
had no property of private stock
holders to fall back upon, and every
poor holder of five or ten dollars of
these bills regarded it as equivalent
IN value to gold or silver.
South Carolina has never furnished
her honor or State faith by anything
that savored Of Reputation. and,
although she may have the power
now, through Acts of the Legislature
or otherwise, to refuse to redeem
these bills, yet this refusal will tell
powerfully against her credit in every
stock-market, either in this country
or Europe. Should she repudiate the
payment of these notes, she would
not be able, and on very proper
grounds, to borrow dollar on any
exchange in the world. Her new
issue of greenback shin-plasters,
dubbed bills receivable, being liable
to the same contingency of being re-
pudlated, would Immediately fall be-
low par, as nobody would take bill
that might be refused payment to-
morro~. No; let the State show her
hand, and, if she will not paw these
notes. let the people know it, and
our word for it, their new issues will
DE rejected at every desk and counter
in the State.
