Can ii be possible that over Five Million
Bottles of PLANTATION BITrERs have been
sold during the past year? 1t is almost in
credible, nevertheless it is absolutely true
and is the most convincing proof of their
wonderful medicinal and health restoring
qualities. Every family should be supplied
with these Bitters, at whatever cost or trou-
BILE it may be to obtain them. Be careful
that you get the genuine, and that you
are not imposed upon by n spurious article.

In the present session of the British Par
lament the question OF voting by ballot is
to be brought forward by the distinguished
diplomatist, Sir Henry Bulwer; and there
is now a better prospect of the ballot passing
into law than at any previous time during
the many years of its discussion. The Lon
don Recie'c says that the ballot has 'passed
from the category Of things that cannot be
to the category of things that must be-
and though it will be strongly opposed by
the Tories. who have been furnished with
arguments against it by John Stuart Mill,
the Liberals feel assured of its success un-
der Gladstone's administration.

a WONDERFUL SOUTHERN DIscovERY.-In
the South, where Liver complaint and
bilious diseases prevail to so great an ex-
tent. there has long been felt n need of
medicine that woud act specifically and
promptly on he Lircr, restoring it to its nor
NAL functions, and at the same time be safe

as Dyspepsia, Sick Headache. Indigestion.

A nice way Of overcoming bashful scru-
pl"s has been found in North Carolina. At
q recent wedding, guest proposed that one
MAI. in the company should be selected as
president; that this president shoald be
dniy sworn to keep entirely secret all the
communications that should be forwarded
to him in lis official department that night :;
that each unmarried gentleman and lady
should write his or her name on piece Of
paper and under it place the name of the
person they wished to marry, then hand It
to the president for inspection, and if any
lady and gentleman had reciprocally chosen
each other, the president was to inform
each of the result, and those who had not
been reciprocal in their choice were to be
kept entirely secret After the appoint
ment of the president, communications
were accordingly handed mp to the chair
and it was found that twelve young ladies
and gentlemen had reciprocal choices, and
eleven of the twelve matches were solemn

The CONGRESSIONAL MISREPRESENTATION FROM
GEORGIA AND SOUTH CARoLINA-It is under
stood that Mr.. Mcpherson, the Clerk of the
House of Representatives, holds the Geor-
gia credentials to be imperfect, because they
do not state, as required by law, to what
Congress- the claimants were elected; and
the Louisiana credentials to be imperfect,
because they do not certify that the claim
ants were duly elected. On both these
points, the law is Imperative In the Third
and Fourth Districts of South Carolina two
conflicting credentials have been signed by
the State officers. In all these cases, the
Clerk deems it his duty to submit the papers
to the House. to be acted upon after the
election OF n Speaker.

SUCCESS THE EVIDENCE OF MERIT The
world has ever looked upon success rs the
criterion of merit. Take Caesar, Charlie
magne, Alexander; men call them great be-
cause they were successful. They achieved
what they aimed at. Grant was successful.
Therefore Grant is called great. It IS true,
men may fail and yet may be great Lee.
for instance, failed, and yet he is called
great In the case of men the rule, there
fore, does not hold always But in the case
of MEDICINE it is sure test. No medicine
is good unless it produces the effect desired,
and, measured by this standard, HE1N1rsu's
QUEENS DELIGHT is truly great medicine,
because the cures are chronicled every day,
(see certificates 1t is the greatest achieve
mcnt of science that we have been called
upon to record. The testimonial pages are
as bright as they must be fattering to the

Andrew Jonnson's Farewell Address.

We have not yet received this address in
full, but the extracts that have reached us
seat with his colors flying He deserves
the admiration of the country, and the
gratitude of the South. He stood up nobly
for the right, as he conceived it. Well may
he say:
"It is matter of pride aud qualification,
in retiring from the most exalted position
in the gift of 3 free people, to feel and
know that in long, arduous and eventful
public life, my actions have never been in
huenced by desire for gain, and that can,
in all sincerity, inquire whom have L de-
frauded, whom have I oppressed, or at
whose hands have 1 received any bribe to
blind my eyes herewith"

Miss MoCULLooH.- following fatter-
ing notice of the performance of this lady
in "Belisario," appears in the Courier des
Etas UniS: ''Miss McCulloch carried off
the honors of the evening. Her voice is
less distinguished for strength than limpidi-
ty. She embellished her romance of the
second act with vocalization of the purest
taste. and executed it with precision, accu-
racy and flexibility. Her chromatic gamuts
resemble fireworks, and her prolonged
notes were executed to perfection; the
staccato notes were most silvcry and fell
upon the air like the patterings of rain.
The final result of the opera was perfect
success"
Miss McCulloch is native Carolinian,
well known to many of onr readers. who
will be glad to learn that she is achieving
brilliant success in the profession which She
has chosen.

Ruskin truthfully said: ''An educat-
ed man ought to know three things
First, where he is-that is to say, what
kind of a world he has got into; how
large it is, and what kind of creatures
live in it, and how what it is made of
and what may be made it. Secondly,
where he is going-that is to say, what
chances or reports there are Of any other
world besides this what seems to be the
nature Of that other world Thirdly,
what he had best do under the circum-
stances; what are the present state and
wants of mankind; what are the readiest
means in his power of attaining hap
piness and diffusing it The man who
knows these things and who has his
will so subdued that he is ready to do
what he knows he ought, is an educated
man; and the man who knows them
not, is uneducated, although he could
talk all the tongues of Babel"

w. w. Peak, of the Swiss Bell Ring
ers, in a letter extensively published,
says;
l can honestly state as the result of
my observations during our extended
tour of over six months through the
States of Tennessee, Georgia, South
Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Louis
lana and Texas, that stories of outrages
so frequently seen in Northern papers
are, generally, carnations from the
brains of evil-minded persons, written
for effect and having no foundation in
fact. The Southern people, generally,
are as well disposed towards, will treat
as kindly, and welcome as cordially, any
and all well disposed persons who may
come among them either as permanent
settlers or as transient visitors, as would
the people Of any section of our common
country. They have suffered great
deal during the past few years and have
by no means fully recovered from the
effects of the war, but they are hopeful
for the future, and to all well meaning
people they will extend the right hand
of fellowship, irrespective Of the section
of country from which said people may
come.

EXTRAORDINARY SELF-IMMoLATIoN.
The following statement appears in
the Pail Mall Gazette
'sAll the extraordinary proceedings of
the many fanatical sects whose rapid in
crease has excited so much anxiety in
Russia are fairly thrown into the shade
by a terrible act of self-immolation
which is reported from the government
Of Saratow. A few months ago the
prophets of new religion made their
appearance in that part of the empire,
preaching self-destruction by fire as the
only sure road to salvation, and SO rea-
Oily was their dreadful doctrine received
by the ignorant and superstitious pea
santry, that in one large village no less
than seventeen hundred persons assemb-
led in some wooden houses, and having
barricaded the windows and doors, set
the buildings on fire and persisted in the
flames. The authorities are doing all
they can to stay the progress of this
new madness, but their task is obviously
a difficult one. The punishments which
the law can inflict must have little ter
ror for enthusiasts who deliberately
choose death SO horrible as the true
road to heaven"

The London Times, talking about the
late boat race, says the issue of this match
is no inapt illustration Of the difference
between the two nations. The English
men were heavier than the Harvards,
but it remains doubtful to which side
the balance Of strength inclined. As
for gallantry, energy and pluck, Harvard
showed an example we may humbly hope
to equal, but cannot excel. The victory
was victory of education.

Mr.. Trimble was well-to-do man of

means that had forfeited all the friendship

and though he rolled in his carriage, be
could not count dozen that he might call

Der Of these had diminished, and when he

was not worn by the multitudes Of those
solicitous to render aid to the afflicted. 1t
was before the day of hearses, and bearers
were depended upon to carry the deceased
to the grave, which, wien the way was
long, made the service very onerous,
though it was never refused. The son of
the deceased Trimble and poor relative
were to make arrangements for the funer-
al, the latter to look after and procure
bearers. He went among the people, and
while several said they would assist "with
pleasure''-laying stress upon the word
the most OF the people were so busily en-
gagged they could not attend. 1t seemed,
to that poor relative, that there never was
such busy time as then prevailed, and
without seeing half enough, he returned
to make his report. lie found the young
man in barber's shop.
"Bill," said he, with very rueful ex-
preston, 81 can't find any bearers"
Bill looked at his coadjutor with a half
wonderful and half funny expression, and
said:
"Well, Joe, that's bad but have sue
ceeded worse than you have, for | can't
