To Uh0n 1t Hay Concern:
Ten years ago tumor began growing
on my side. In two years it was as
large as a peck measure, and iii five it
weighed more than l did. If it had
possessed legs it could have carried me
around easier than l could carry it.
Didn't know sometimes which was me,
the tumor or myself! Little boys used
TO jeer, and say, "Tumor, where are you
going with that man p Doctors used
to talk of cutting me off from the tumor,
never of cutting the tumor off from me.
At length heard of the celebrated DIR.
Gritty. and his sand-paper cure. En-
ployed him, and in a week he had sand
papered the tumOr entirely away, be-
sides adding greatly to my general
health. Z. L. MORE.

KANSAS FARMER PRIZES.

The Kansas Farmer has met with the
most remarkable favor since its change
of editors about one year ago.
1t is still edited and published by
Geo. 7. Anthony, whose energy and
ability, combined with the manifest
need of first class agricultural paper
in the State, have crowned the enter
prise undertaken by him with Jinprec-
enented success. As an evidence of
this, we note with pleasure that the last
issue of the Farmer contains the follow
ing offer of special premiums at the
coming State Fair:
FRUIT PRIZES.
Believing that the cultivation of fruit
is one of the most sure and profitable,
where soil and climate are adapted to
it, and recognizing it as fact that its
cultivation and use have tendency to
refine and elevate all classes of society,
we confess 10 deep interest in the SUBJ
ject.
1t is not necessary to re-assert our
faith in Kansas, and particularly in this
portion of the Missouri Valley, as a
fruit producing country. If it has
equals, it certainly has no superior in
advantages of climate and soil. This
branch of husbandry is in its infancy,
and unlike the cultivation of grain and
vegetables, mistake cannot be correct
ed another year. Three to ten years
are required to bring vine or tree to
bearing, and if found at the end of that
time barren, or worthless in fruit, an
other like series of years must be con-
sumed in second effort. Ii tree is
carelessly set, OF neglected in its growth
this gear, 1T affects it III all the years of
its life. 1t is therefore necessary to be-
gin right, and keep right in every stage
of fruit culture.
To encourage this enterprise is deem
ed by US of paramount importance in
Kansas at this time. Hence, the fol-
lowing premiums are offered by the
Kansas Farmer:
For the best collection of orchard apples
ef not less than i've, or more than ten
varieties-a solid silver goblet, costing $25 90
For the best collection of orchard pears
OF hve VaT1eties-a solid silver goblet,
For the best collection of vineyard grapes
of not less Than four or more than eight
varieties-a solid silver goblet, costing % 90
Nurserymen are excluded from COM
peting for these prizes. They are only
open to practical fruit growers who Gull
tivate trees and vines for the fruit, as
regular branch of husbandry.
Each variety must be represented by
at least ten specimens, and be accompa-
MED by detailed statement of the age
of trees or vines at time of setting, the
nursery wherein grown, the soil and
slope of the orchard or vineyard, the
time and manner of setting, and subse-
quent care and cultivation, together
with all particulars a knowledge of
which will aid others to profit by the
example.
The goblets will be engraved, "Eun-

A BOLD RoBBERY-A HOUSE DEsPouED OF
IT'S WINDOW SAsHEs.-The light-Angered gen.
try have been conspicuous in their attentions
to the public for some time, but we have been
seldom called upon to report more daring
robbery than one which was detected yester-
day. An unoccupied house on Rutledge-street,
near Bill, the property of Mr. F. c. Mey, was
observed on Monday to be despoiled of its
window sashes. These had been recently fur
nished and were quite new. The thieves man
aged their business with the adroitness Of old
hands, and made clean business of it-si1teen
pair of sashes being taken. The robbery was
reported on Monday to Lieutenant Hendricks,
and officer Chapman detailed to work the case.
On Tuesday six pair Of the sashes were recov-
cred, and Jack Green, one Of the colored
thieves, arrested. The receiver is also known,
and q clue obtained which will lead to the re-
coyery of the remainder of the sashes. Mr..
Mey had not visited the house for some time,
and the theft had evidently been committed
early last week, as the plunder was all sold. 1t
was soon traced to the purchasers, and they
will have to answer to the charge Of receiving
stolen goods.

TIE KA1m1A Mn,s.-This admirably locate,

The KAIM1A MnLs.-This admirably located
property, between Aiken and Augusta, on one
.of the finest streams, and situation among
the best in the South, has lately. our readers
have been informed, been sold to clear up its
.embarrassments, the former proprietors not
having sufficient means to carry the work to
completion. We believe that the property, up
to this time, in its present incomplete condi-
stion, has cost over three hundred thousand
dollars, and it has been disposed of for one
hundred and sixty thousand. The present
owner left the city q few days since, in COM
pany with party Of gentlemen, to examine the
present condition Of the works, and it is un-
,derstood that he has been rendered large
amounts Of capital to place the establishment
in thorough working condition. The site is 80
convenient to the great cotton markets, has
:, such admirable means OF communicating with
the outside world by the South Carolina Rail-
road, that there can hardly be doubt that,
~once fairly started under efficient management,
it has every advantage to enable the mill to
become exceedingly profitable. The entire re-
gion from Aiken to Augusta, with the numer-
eeus manufacturing enterprises built or project
ed, promises to become one Of the greatest
centres of industry in the South.

The OpERA.-Perhaps the most full and fash
ionable audience Hhich has graced Hibernian
Hall since its transformation into theatre,
greeted Manager Grau's company on it's second
appearance last eva sning. Every seat was filed.
and the gay and, IN some instances, elaborate
toilets of the ladies lent brilliancy to the scene.
The performance was q marked improve
ment on that Of Monday evening. A peripa-
tetic opera troupe can hardly do full justice to
"Der Freischutz," and seldom attempts it.
While they have within their grasp such operas
as ssSomnambulf,," !" "Marta," "Fra Diavolo,"
"Diamans de Ia Couronne," as we'll as the
"Rose of CASTLE, 'Maritana," and the 'Bohe-
misn Girl,"a travelling company on the provin-
c,al stage generally avoids those grand operas
which are mere Garicatures if the solo singers
are not SUSTAINED by powerful orchestra,
q vell-trained chorus, and an elaborate and
well arranged mise en- scene. Hence it was
with some misgivinga that we saw the an
,ouncement Of the difficult and massive opera
of 'Der Freisch,Itz."
We we're agressbly disappointed. The Or
chestra, though somewhat lacking in strength,
was we'll handlsd throughout; the chorus
seemed more fill, and certainly was better
practiced than IN 'tFaust;;" and the leading
singers, Mile. Frederici and Messrs. Himmer
and Weinlich fully sustained their high reputa-
ton. The "Prayer, the "Hunters Chorus" !"
and the tenor solo "Durch die Walder, " were
warmly applauded. The VOLTS gleg, in the
third act, with its multform diabblic con-
comitants, and liberal supply OF red fire,
blue fire and Roman candles, was very cleverly
presented, and Barring the smallness OF the
stage, would Lave done credit to Niblo's
Garden.
Everybody went home delighted. Tonight
we are to have, as a farewell performance,
ssThe Magic Frlte," an opera in which this
company is said to excel.

A NEW SENSATION THE GREAT IL

his magic exhibition at the South Carolina
Hall, and will furnish On entertainment that
will put the wizards of the North in the shade.
We have seen some Of Sargent's tricks, and
-.can truthfully say that he is unequalled in his
profession. His sleight-of-hand is surprising,
while his powers as ventriloquist are sufh-
.. cient to induce the belief that he deals with
.uncanny spirits In addition to the usual attrac-
,tions offered, he will give grand gift distri-
tbution, in which over one hundred and fifty
presents, of different values, will be given
away. The price Of admission is unprecedent-
.edly low, and all who can raise fractional cur
-rency should attend.

sweet things not agreeing with them, they fell

this sweet sound will cause tears to gush un-
sbidden TO many eyes, and viii revive memories
that were buried in the dust and ashes of the
ipast. The change was inaugurated 'sfor the
better convenience Of the citizens" and in or
tder to let them take some note OF time. A
clock whose hands are idle and whose notes
ARE hushed is more ornamental than useful,
and the order concerning the bells will be read
with pleasure by all who have ever listened to
