that the Ella Anna, the yacht of Messrs Marsh,
showed clean pair OF heels to all who tried her
mettle. The yachting season Is now at hand and
the lovers of sport should revive the interest once
felt by trials of speed between the different craft in
the Charleston squadron.

last evening In the Citadel Square Church. drew to
that edAce one Of the largest audiences that hna
ever assembled for asacred purpose In the City Of

pulpit steps, hundreds being compelled to stand.
And we exaggerate not ct all in saying that every

The text OF the sermon was I Peter, chapter !,

in whom though now We see him not, yet believing.
we rejoice with joy unspeakable and full OF glory.
The subject deduced was first the assured perso-

QUE VEaErABLE FARlls.--A Charleston letter
TO the Baltimore Gazette says: "Great uneasiness
exists among the garden farmers around the city on

brought to ma rket just after the season Of the Ber

from the blight. Other vegetables, however, al-

A FEW WORDS TO THE LADIES.

u
Many ladies, particularly mothers nursing,
complain Of tired, listless feeling, or
complete exhaustion, on arising in the
morning. On the wife and mother de-
wolves the responsibility Of regulating the
duties Of the household. Her cares are
numerous, and the mental as well as
physical powers are frequently called into
requisition. She often finds her slightest
occupation weary task and existence a
burden, while at the same time she has no
regular disease HOSTETTER'S STO-
MACH BITTERS, if resorted to at this
period, will prove an unfailing remedy for
this annoying lassitude. The effects of
this potent agent are soon seen in the rosy
cheek and elastic step Of the head of the
family, as with restored health and re-
newed spirits she takes her accustomed
place in the family circle. If this friend in
need be regularly used, those depressing
symptoms will never be complained of, and
not only would lassitude not be expe-
riepced, but many diseases following it's
advent be avoided. AS q MEDICAL
AGENT, it has no equal, while it's pleasing
flavor and healthful effects have made it q
general favorite. 1t is free from all pro-
perties calculated to impair the system,
and its operations are at once mild, sooth.
ing and efficient. All who have used the
bitters attest its virtues and commend it

The SPEorRUM.-One of the most

THE SPECTRUM.-One of the most
interesting discoveries of modern sci.
ence is the invention of the Spec
troscope-i interesting in itself, and of
incalculable advantage in the assist
ance it affords to other branches of
scientific Investigation. BY means
of its refracting sprisms, it is enabled
to separate and exhibit the spectra
or rays Of light which different sub.
stances reflect, each in its own char
acteristic system of bands and lines
of color. By this means the atmos-
pheres of the sun and many of the
planets have been analyzed, and it
has been discovered of what material
those bodies are composed.
BY its use the human blood can be
analyzed and recognized under all
conditions, whether in the secretions
of disease, or in dried stains upon
other materials. The coloring matter
of the blood shows q spectrum en-
tirely different from other substances,
which in general appearance and CO.
lor, are undistinguishable from it,
even by the most powerful micro
scope. The spectroscope will detect
the one thousandth of a grain of
dried human blood on the door, OF
on the blade of knife, or in any
other condition, and thus becomes of
immense Importance to the science
of medicine, and also, of no small
value to that of the law.

THE New YORK WORLD. The
World, in an elaborate leader, on
Monday last, surprised lis leaders'by
an ingenious argument in favor of a
change of base by tho Democratic
party, abandoning in q moment the
doctrines for which it has SO ably
contended since the close of the war.
1t acknowledges the validity Of the
Reconstruction Acts, and accepts ne
gre suffrage rs an accomplished fact.

tic party, even if it carry the next
Presidential election, and secure a
majority in both Houses of Congress,
cannot consistently, with its funda-
mental doctrines, Interfere with ne
gro suffrage in the States, as estab-
lished by the Reconstruction Acts.
The World seems to have forgotten,
what it has SO often maintained here
tofore, that the constitutionality Of
these Acts has never been acknow-
lodged by either the Executive OF the
Supreme Court; and that the entire
Democratic party has, during the
past fifteen months, patiently looked
for the action of the Supreme Court
In regard to this matter, never for a
moment doubling, that when this
tribunal shall be at liberty to give q
decision, that decision will be averse

ATTEMPTED Rescue.

A collision between the civil au-
thorities and the negroes took place
at Orangeburg, on Thursday, but
owing to the firmness shown by the
officer assailed, and by the citizens,
no general outbreak occurred.
During the afternoon, the Sheriff
sent his deputy into the interior to
arrest three negro men, against
whom warrants had been issued for
stealing goods from store in Orange
burg. The deputy found the ne
groes, arrested them, and tout on
his return. On his way h. was met
by crowd of negroes, most of whom
he knew to be from the vicinity of
the place in which he had made his
arrests. AS he rode up. one of the
negroes came forward and demanded
that the prisoners be released. The
Sheriff asked him very quietly what
was his authority? The negro drew
q pistol, cooked it, presented it at the
Sheriff, and said, "This is my au-
thority." Without further parley,
the Sheriff fired, wounding the ne
gro mortally. The rest of the ne
groes made rush forward, and the
prisoners made their escape; but the
Sheriff stood his ground like n man,
and did not attempt to make his
escape until he had fired every barrel
of his pistol. wounding one negro
slightly and a second very badly.
When the Sheriff reached Orange
burg he collected his posse and re-
turned. At the place where the at
tack had been made, he found the
negro first wounded in the care Of a
colored man. Both were arrested
and left i'll charge of citizen named
Izlar, while the Sheriff went on and
recaptured his escaped prisoners.
Soon after the Sheriff left Mr..
lzlar's, one of the negroes in Mr..
Izlar's custody, asked permission to
go to the spring for water. Mr.. Izlar
went with him, und as they approach
ed the spring the negro seized stick
and struck at Mr.. Izlar. The blow
was parried, and the two had des-
perate fight, in which tho rammer of
MIR. Izlar's pistol was broken off.
The negro, seeing he could do no
better, broke away and ran off, Mr..
Izlar halted him three times and then
fired, wounding him in the neck and
body.
When the news of these events
reached the town there was great ex-
citement, and the citizens did not
hesitate to charge the negro "Sena-
tor" elect, B. L. Randolph, with hav-
ing instigated the attempted rescue.
Randolph had around him a large
number of negroes, whom he then
told to go home and be quiet. There
was some fear of q rising in the
night, and arrangements were made
that the citizens should assemble
when gun was fired or the bell
tolled. Late at night rapid dis
charge OF firearms was heard. The
citizens tumbled out on all sides, but
found that it was only the entyee of
Herr Lengel into the lions den dur
ing the performance of Ames' circus.
Yesterday troops were sent for to
Columbia, and detachment of in
fantry arrived at Orangeburg, and
was marched to the Sheriff's Office.
All was then quiet, and the danger
to be past.
