Shall Nature be Sustained?

To give debiatng medicines to the weak is about as
sensible as it would be to try to help man to his feet
by kicking him when he was down.
That sort OF practice is going out of fashion 1t has
ned so many graveyards that people longer believe
in it.
If those who not strong by nature expect to avoid
Inc attacks eff disease they must endeayor to acquire the
vigcr necessary to resist it.
How is this to be done? Common sense suggests by
the use of r yigorating medicine.
The great object is to STRENGTHEN THE SYSTEM WITH
OUT EXCITING IT.
This object is accomplished by the judcious use OF
the most potent and genial OF all vegetable tonies and
alternatives HosTEITER's STOMACH BITTERs

| The CHARLESTON CLUB HoUsE.-This building
WAS purchased after the war; for United States
| Court House, but, on account of an alleged Haw
in the titles: the appropriation was withdrawn and
the property left on the hands of the purchasers.
1t was at that time very much out of repair, and
for some months no efforts were made to restore
it to its former condition. During this period it
occasionally lent to different corporations for
charitable purposes, but this privilege was abused
by scme parties, whose meetings were 80 bolster
ous that they became dsagreeable to the commu-
nifty. Complaints of these proceedings were no
sooner received by the owners than all permis-
sOns to use the building we're revoked and it
was determined to reft and repair it thoroughly.
There is perhaps no building in the city that is
more suited for Court House than the old Club
House. as the large hall could be easily transform
ed into Court OF Justice while the smaller rooms
on the lower floor would be admirably adapted for
he offices Of the different persons connected with
the Court.
At present the owners design using the house
as a place for public amusements, and have tho
roughly repaired all damage, besides improving
the internal appearance of the building BY re-
moving the paper on the walls and painting them
in imitation of marble. The Hall has been fur
nished with benches and movable stage, but
these can be easily removed and the building
be made available for any public entertainment.
1t is proposed to have first class caterer con-
nected with the building, who will be prepared to
furnish dinners or suppers to any persons who
may engage the Hall. There are but three pub
lie Halls in the city, and if the present Winter
shonid he as lively as its predecessors the Club
House will not be long without occupants.

BOOK AND JOB PRINTING, AND Book BINDING
AS will be seen by reference to our advertising
columns MIR. JAMES W. MCMILLAN late OF IHE
DAILY NEWS and Mr.. THAD C. JowITT, have formed
copartnership for the purpose Of conducting the
business mentioned above. They have located at
No. SO Hayne street, in the building formerly occu-
pied by Messrs. ". H. G1LLIAND & Son, and having
purchased the new and complete job printing ma
terial, fc nery belonging to this Office, are pre-
pared t. dill any orders that may be entrusted to
them.
Captain MCMILLAN, the senior partner, has been
long known to the community from his connection
with the newspapers of this city, and is thoroughly
acquainted with the ''art preservative OF arts" IN
all of its different phases As an energetic busi-
ness man, he has few superiors, and the firm Of
MCMILLAN & JowrrT will soon achieve that success
they merit. Mr. JowrrT, formerly OF the firm OF
BURKE & JowTTT, is an old and practical printer,
and brings to the new firm large experience,
which will enable them to compete fayorably with
similar establishments in the city.
Their proximity to business circles will enable
them to supply cards, bill heads, &C., at a short
notice, and in every style known to the art, and as
thew posses extensive facilities for conducting the
printing and bockbinding business in all Of its
details their customers will have no cause for
complaint. Orders for MCMILLAN JowrTT, may

WHoAl JANUARY.-The lovers Of the Hippo
drome will be pleased to learn that two Richmonds
are in the field, two Januarys on the carpet two
gorgeous displays of spangles, and feot lights,
wild and tame beasts trained animals, learned
mules, &c. in prospect. DAN CASTILLO, with his
world-renowned show, will soon pay our city his
promised visit, and those irTepressible juveniles
who have gazed daily at the wonders exhibited oi,
his sign board, and have dreamed nightly OF the
different performances, can at last realize their
fondest anticipations. The cherished quarters and
halves will be removed from their boarding places
and be absorbed in DAN CAsTELLos cash box, and
the canvass will be crowded to its utmost capacity.
This has been the experience of most circusgoers,
and the community have not lost their fondness
for big shows.
DAN, however, cannot carry of all the green
backs; he has competitor who follows closely at
his heels, and WILL perhaps have his expectations
at the same time. RoBINsoN's circus is not I'M
known to fame, and his huge posters, which are
boldly displayed on the fences and walls OF the
CITY, state that his animals are as well trained, his
horses can leap as high, and the performers Gutdo
those of any rival establishment. This is what
might be termed big talk, were it not known that
ROBINSON is an old and experienced Snowman. His
show bills promise many wonders. 1t would not
be surprising if an extra effort Was made and more
fractional currency saved, in olde. to allow the
parties to see both shows, and determine for them
selves which was the most perfect in all OF the de-
tails.
One benefit that has already been derived from
these proposed invasions Is the changed appearance
of the streets, and particularly some portions OF
the burnt district. The blank walls and unsightly
ruins are now changed into huge picture galleries,
There the naturalist can learn the habits and ap-
pearance Of the different beasts, and where the
biblical student is enabled to 500 Eden as it was
when ADAM was lord and master of all he survey
ed. To the juveniles, both white and black, these
mammoth pictures are unfailng sources of delight,
and it is doubtful if sight at the 'rue and true"
show would give them much pleasure as that
afforded by the variegated posters.

RADICAL ACCOUNTS OF THINGS IN SOUTH CARO-
LINA.-Ihe New York Tribune ofThursday contains
letter from Charleston, dated October 28th, from
which we take the following paragraphs, which, as
our readers will observe, are evidently penEed
in purely disnterested spirit
R-mors of Radical plans and aspirations here
in the State are already in the wind, long way
ahead Dr. Albert G.. Mackey, the Collector of the
Port, undoubtedly sterling loyalist during the
WAR; and an out-spoken man Slice then, is men
toned most prominently for the prospective
Senatorship. Mr.. Frederick A. Sawyer, late prin-
cipal OF the Girls Normal School in Charleston,
and far more recent convert to Radical opinions,
though hailing from Massachusetts, is another
contemplated nomination. There will OF course
be q curious contest here for the honors IN the
Radical gift, just as in mature Localities; put there
will be Offices enough for all who are able to fill
them. Any possible white ticket of Radicals for
Congress would, / am sure, be refreshed and
strengthened by the names OF such colored men
as Cardozo and Delany-the former principal
of one of the schools here and the latter the we'll
known colored surgeon who has won his title of
Major Mr. Lemuel G. Booser is the upland nomi-
nee in prospect for the senatorsbip. His is not
name to fill trumpet OF any sort but he is said
to be man Of high WORTH and pretty fair speci-
men of native Conserved-Radical.
The visit of tie Southern Railroad Committee
from Congress has left fair impression on
the minds Of Radicals it would be absurd to
suppose that they could deeply impress any other;
Thee enspeeches of the Committee were not vital
utterances, though in the main well advised and
sensible. Not 80 Mr.. McClurgs renewal OF the
threat about confscation. If Congress did intend
to adopt any wholesale measure in effect go reac-
tionary, Mr.. McClurg's threat would not have been
one whit the wiser. There can be no use OF SET
ting up conhscation as q scare. crow. The negroes
laugh at it, and SO do their ex-owners.

while Conductor RoUAnI4AT's car was passing this

men who had their arms partially out of the window
The blow was quite painful, though an examina-
