LONDON, September 15.-The Daily News
contains another letter from William Hewitt,
on the charges against Lord Byron. He says
Lady Byron has condemned herself by the
breach OF an honorable silence. Irreparable
wrong was done Byron by the destruction Of
the papers containing his justification, and q
solution Is impossible except on defective ex
parte evidence. DR.. Forbes Winslow, in a
public Communication on the same subject,
holds that the theory Of the mental alteration
OF Lady Byron cannot be maintained.
The Times, in an editorial to-day, COM
menting on the Emperor's illness and the pub
LEGATION Of the Senatus Consultum, says: "The
person of the Sovereign is Of secondary i'm
portance; if the personal government is ended,
it matters little who is Emperor or Regent.
tThe essential question is, who is Minister, on
what terms does he hold Office, and on what
principles does he conduct the administration?
No one can govern except through the Cabi-
net and enjoying the confidence of the majority
OF the people"

BE- SOLOMON'S BIrTERS.-THIS PRE-
IARATION. compounded by one Of our Oldest and
most esteemed druggists has, during the short time
in which it has been offered to the public, attained
a reputation which has almost entirely driven out OF
market the various tonics and stimulants which, for
q few mon'hs, by exorbitant putting and heavy ad-
vertisiig, succeeded in building profitable busi-
ness for their projectors.
soomon's Bitters are not of the fashy style, de.
pending upon large advertising, bought puffs and
fictitious recommendations for q sale to gullible
public Their composition Is well known to and ap'
proved by many Of our best physicians, and the pro-
prietors depend upon the intrinsic merits Of their
medicine to make It as popular as it is curative.
They do nc pretend to offer a medicinal prepara-
ton that will cure all the ills that flesh is heir to,
but they do contend that the udcious use OF these
Bitters will greatly alleviate human suffering. and
bring very many to q state Of comparative health
who have long been strangers to that great blessing.
One good genuine recommendation of any pro.
fessed curative is worth dozens or hundreds OF
bought certificates, and the Messrs. sOLOMONS
have only published few out of the hundreds OF un-
solicited testimonies which the have received. We
this morning give copy Of aleter from Hon. ALEX.
q. STEPHENS, whose peculiarly enfeeoled condluon
for the past six months has been known to the whole
country. His few earnest words will go much fur
ther to confirm the good opinion already existing as
to The beneficial qualities of this medicine than

COURT IN WILLLAzGsBURG:

- = iTRon aoUR OWN CORRESPONDENT
KMasTREE, Tuesday, September 14-Court
was in session here during the past week, and
was occupied until Friday afternoon with
criminal business. The sessions docket was
crowded With Q large number Of petty cases,
such as larceny. assault and battery, &C., con-
suming the time Of the court and adding great
ly to the expenses OF the county, parties, in
many instances, making the court the vehicle
for venting mere personal spite. Cuffee was
largely represented Of course, both in the
crowd and in the business of the court. The
juries were about one-.aird white. The noto-
rions scoundrels, John Washington. Robert
johnson, Elias Jones and William Jones, with
auite q variety OF aliases. were brought to trial
for the robberies committed on MIR. Stagger's
some time since, and were all. with the ex-
ception of William Jones, convicted and SEN
tenced-tWo Of them to fourteen and the
other to twelve months int e penitentiary.
The three former took tt-lr departure for
Columbia yesterday in charge OF Bthe sherif's
deputy, and the latter was sent to Charleston
Jail to await trial for a robbery committed in
your city, for which there was warrant against
him under another Of his numerous aliases.
One of them attemptefan escape Sunday morn
ing by slipping of his manacles, and knocking
down the guard, but was promptly recaptured.
The court adjourned on Saturday after the trial
of only one civil case-an action Of ''trespass to
try titles" for store ana lot in this village.
Trial by jury was waived by consent Of parties,
and the case was ably argued before Judge
Green BY A. C. Spain, ESQ.,, OF Darlington, and
Richard Dozier, Esq, Of Georgetown. The
scene in the courthouse reminded one Of the
oIdeu time, when negro juries were unknown,
and sambo Wa left to the performance OF duties
for which he is more competent .Thefarmers
are busy with cotton picking, and the adjourn
meut of court is great relief to them.

To the People ofSouh Carolina:
The above Company was organ zed in 1886, In
consequence Of the wholesale forfeiture OF Southern

impoverished country-every dollar of premium
being safely invested In the State from which 1t is de-
rived. The institution ispurely Southern. and hence
should appeal with great force to the patriotism and
and sympathy Of every Southern heart.
IT'S not our purpose TO make war on other COM
panies but to exhibit the special advantages offered
by this purely Southern Company-founded on
patriotism and solid wealth. It's ratio of assets to
labiliHes-the true test of company's Strengths
second to none on this continent being nearly $500
to s1OO.
Whenever and wherever we have presented the
claims of this Company 1t has not only enlisted the
sympathes of our people, but has also secured their
hearty cooperation. We have secured 600 policies
in South Carolina since the 10th of February. We
number among our Directors General Wade Hamp-
ton and Colonel Vim. Johnston, gentlemen well
known to every citizen of South Carolina. We ap-
