MI. ED1roR: One Of the greatest evils
"ilesh is heir to. and one to which your cor
respondent Commerce" does not alludc, is
the we'll known disposition of people "to
find fault"
Commerce" charges the agents Of the
different railroads with being "disobliging,
and ''lacerating the feelings Of those who
present .jusi cluims''-it is dreadful to think
what becomes of those who present unjust
claims-and calls upon the Presidents. we
suppose, for he makes sort of horse, foot
and dragoon charge, "to require their agents
to act more gentlemanly towards the pa
irons of their respective lines"
Take the agents, strictly speaking, as the
representatives of all this i'll doing-is A
disobliging? is B? is G? We know we
have no right to answer for Commerce"
but would not be surprised, from his gene
raj way of charging, if he said A, b and G
are not, but X, Y and q are AS for the
"lacerated feelings" it looks as if Com
meroe" had had his feelings worked upon
by the old lady who was torn to pieces,
short time ago. by "one of the officials"
telling her politely that the road could not
pay for cabbages received by it in dam
aged condition. "People who live in glass
houses should not throw stones" Those
who are very sensitive should be careful of
others feelings.
Wo would respectfully suggest to "Com-
merce, the next time he goes cunning, to
behave in more sportsman-like manner.
Let him pick his birds, and not shoot into
the covey.
We frequently meet the ''oflicials" of the
different roads, and must say that, taken as
! N tl,1i
and we feel confident that the complaints of
Commerce" are not endorsed by the mer-
chants OF Columbia. Let it be understood.
We do not intend to contradict Com
merce," when we say the officials are not
disobliging. All we mean is, that different
men will see the same subject in different
lights" l..

BEAUTY. How to secure clear. smooth
beautiful, healthy skin, is the desire of all.
and this is within the reach of all. The
skin becomes discolored, rough, eruptiye.
by the virulent unhealthy condition of the
eNcretons and insensible perspiration-that
is, secreted by its functions, and expelled
through its pores. The skin is one of the
chief outlets for the expulsion of the hu-
mors or elements that the absorbent vessels
reject to nourish and sustain the blood;
hence, these irritant humors poison the
delicate skin, and we have Pimples Blotch-
es, Sores, either simple or malignant &C.
cording to the condition of the perspiration
and humors secreted by the skin. Now.
the application of cosmetics only hide these
defects, and increase the irritant condition
OF the skin. Use Heinitsh's Queens De-
light, and it will be found perfect remedy
for these disorders M24

Many years ago the writer of this notice

Making polite bow, and asking before.
hand the indulgence Of all fellow-merchants,
the writer begs leave to urge that it is by no
means special, but general characteristic
of our business community, to undertake in
one establishment too great variety of bus-
ness pursuits Why should not Columbia,
like oil her sister cities, boast of her whole.
sale dealers, her retail dealers, her liquor
dealers, her cotton dealers, hardware
houses, boot and shoe stores, hat stores
commission merchants, produce merchants,
ETC., ETC., to the end Of the list? Why not
have the toy shops to sell doll babies, and
the confectioner his candies and sweet
meats, the boot and shoe stores their leather
and shoes, the dry goods merchant his cali
Gees, the hardware man his irons and axes.
and so on throughout? The old proverb
says: "Too many cooks spoil the BROTH"
'Too may irons, one will burn" &c Can
one merchant deal in all classes of goods,
and, at the same time, keep up we'll Sc
lected and complete assortment of oil? The
most experienced and successful merchants
in all large places, and in all countries, are
those who take up specialties and confine
themselves through long series of years to
the same.
Prior to the war, Columbia, in those good
old days, had a merchant for almost every
special department of trade, and each dealer
was pleased and gratified to see his neigh
Dor prosper. Shall we never be ready and
willing to inaugurate snch times again?
For one, ut least, the writer says, "God
speed the day" when every man can sit un-
der his own vine and fig tree, and, in the
frank and generous tone of undisguised
friendship grasp his fellow-merchant's
hand and say, "Hail, fellow citizen, you are
thee to-day" and in reply hear the words
'It has, and thanks for the kind turn you
served me-"
The future success Of every one depends
largely on the absence of all envyings,
jealousies and ill-will Men were made to
live together and work together. Society
itself and townships are formed for mutual
benefit and protection, and it should be the
desire of every one to see his neighbor
prosper as we'll rs himself "Thou shalt
love thy neighbor," &c. The writer is very
far from complaining that our city is
afflicted with a sordid disposition to selfish
ness on the part of its mercantile commu-
nifty; for he we'll knows that it would be un-
just and untrue of our fair city; but he
does urge upon the calm ond patient consi-
deration of it's merchants the weighty i'm
portance of laboring for given purpose,
of condensing their means and pursuits
into special channels, thereby convincing
the world and balance Of mankind that we
are masters Of our professions and pursuits,
and can in every instance guarantee salts
faction in bargains, and the fullest induce
ments to customers and business men uni
versally throughout the State
