The CONCERT BY THE Posr BAYp.-A
large crowd of ladies and gentlemen
were in attendance at Janney's Hall, last
evening, to witness the highly entertain
ing performance given by the Post Band.
We do not go beyond bounds when We
assert that the entertainment in question
excelled anything in that line which the
citizens of Columbia have had an oppor-
tunity of witnessing in the last twelve
years. We hope that the management
RECEIVED encouragement enough from
our citizens to warrant numerous repe-
tition of these excellent and rational
concerts.
BED-BUa ANT1DoTE.--A lady, who has
tried this simple method of extirpating
arepulsive bed-bug, is kind enough to
: public profession of faith in it's
e ICY through the columns of news
paper: eff any of your readers need u
sure remedy for bed-bugs, they can have
mine, and cleanse the house of this trou-
blesome vermin without expense. They
have only to wash with salt water, filing
the cracks where they frequent with salt,
and you may look in vain for them.
Salt seems inimical to bed-bugs, and
they will not trail through it. think
it preferable to all ointments, and the
buyer requires no certificates as to its
genuineness.
1t is our sad duty to report the demise
of VIM. r. Hunt, who died yesterday,
june 11th. Mr.. Hunt was for many
years employed as clerk in the Office of
the Secretary of State, and by his ad-
mirable business qualities SO recommend
ed himself to the Legislature of South
Carolina that he was elected first to the
Office of Surveyor-General, and after
wards to that of Secretary Of State.
During the period of fifteen years in
which he was engaged in the State De-
partment, he also filed the post of De.
putty Comptroller General. Mr.. Hunt

large and varied experience. He died q
victim to consumption; at the age of

death the loss of good and valuable
