THE prevailing tendency toward reform in
France has at last reached the Church The
minor clergy demand higher pay, and in a
recently issued circular complain that the bulk
of the endowmen,s go to the pastor of the
parish, while tAe poor Wears or assistant pas
tols, find great difficulty in keeping body and
soul together They propose the abolition OF
prelature, or the right of the Bishop TO apprc-
pirate the funds of his diocese, the equal dis
trlbulion of the Church revenues, and the alb
solute equality of every ecclesastic before the
tribunals

Under the union Of the two great Presbyte-
rian bodies, the following precedents TO which
the Old School long held with tenacity will
fall to the ground The Old School decided
in fs42 that marriage with u deceased wife's
sister was unscriptural This has never been
been a subject of New School action, and the
reunion will, therefore, relieve that considcra-
BILE majority of the Old School people who
have long since ceased to believe in this curl
Gus doctrine. Roman Catholic baptism was
declared invalid by the Old School Assembly
In 1S45. An indefinite postponement of the
sub ect in the New School Convention of 1859
will leave this to be decided by the united body.
The Old School condemned the practice Of sit
ting in time of public prayer and that of the
reading Of sermons in church by laymen in
the absence of clergymen, in 1s40, both OF
which are common usuages never discounte-
nanced in the New School But the most i'm
portant was the action in regard to Southern
churches. The action of the Old School
which ruled out the commissioners from five
synods, will, of course, become invalid under
the plan of reunion. The action OF the Old
School in 1865, by which the churches adher-
ing to the rebellion were cut off from that
church, must also be repealed and through
this door the separated churches will enter into
peaceful and Christian harmony.

To the People of South Carolina :

To the People of South Carolina
The above Company was organized in 1866,
in consequence of the Wholesale forfeiture OF
southern policies by Northern companies. The
unparalleled success OF the enterprise has
forced several Of these companies to restore
their Southern policies, from the fact that thev
could not operate in our midst without the ap-
pearance of honesty.
We keep all our money at home to build I'D
our impoverished country-every dollar of
premium being safely invested in the State
from which it is derived. The institution ia
purely Southern, and hence should appeal
with great force to the patriotism and sympa-
thy Of every Southern heart.
lis not our purpose to mako war on other
companies, but to exhibit the special advan-
tages offered by this purely Southern Compa-
ny-founded on patriotism and solid wealth.
It's ratio Of assets to liabilities-the true test
OF company's strength, is second to none on
this continent-being nearly 800 to 1OO
Whenever and wherever we have presented
the claims of this Company, it has not only
enlisted the sympathies of our people, but has
also secured their hearty cooperation. We
have secured 500 policies in Soxth Carolina
since tho 10th of February. We number
among our Directors Gen. Wade Hampton and
Col. VIM. Johnston, gentlemen well known to
every citizen of South Carolina. We appeal
personally to the people Of South Carolina to
assist in pushing forward this deservedly
popular Southern institution.

which were aggravated by the scrofulous con-
tamlnatlon until they were painfully affecting,
have been radically cured in such great mum
bers In almost every section of the country
that the public scarcely need to be informed of
it's virtues or uses.
ScrofulOus poisonis one of the most destruc-
tive enemies of our race. Often, this unseen
and unfelt tenant ofthe organism undermines
the constitution, and invites the attack of en-
feebling or fatal diseases, without exciting
suspicion of its presence Again, it seems to
breed infection throughout the body and then,
on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop
into one or other OF it's hideous forms, either
on the surface or among the vitals. In the
latter, tubercles may be suddenly deposited in
the lungs or heart, or tumors formed in the
liver, or it shows it's presence by eruptions on
the skin. or foul alterations on some part of
the body. Hence the occasional use Of a bottle
OF this SARSAPARILLA is advisable even
when no active symptoms of disease appear.
Persons afflicted with the following complaints
generally find immediate relief, and at length
cure, by the use of this SA ARSAPARILLA:S :S.
Anthony's FIRE, Rose or Erysipelas, Ietter, Sail
Rheun., Scatd Head, Ring,c0rna, Sore Eves,
Sore Ears and other cruptions or visible forms
of Scrofulous disease. Also, in the more CON
cealed Ito torms, n.y as Dyspepsia Dopsy, Heart Dis
I'tcerous affections Of the muscular and nerv-
GUS stems.
Syphilis or Fenereat and Mercurial Diseases
are cured by it, though along time is required
for subduing these obstinate malsdies by any
medicine. But long continued use Of this me-
dicine will cure the complaint. Leuco,rhGa or
Whites, Uterine UicerdtiOns, and Female Dis.
eases, are commonly soon relieved and ulti-
nlately cured by it's purifying and invigorating
effect. Minute directions in each case are found
i'll our Almanac, supplied gratis. Rheumatism
and Gout, when caused by accumulations of
extraneous matters in the blood, yield quickly
to it, as also Liner Complaints, Io,piduy, Con-
gestton or Inflammation Of the Liuer and Jun
dice. when arising, as they often do, from the
rinkling poisons in the blood. This SA RSA-
IARILLA is a great restorer for the strength
and vigor Of the system. Those who are Ian
Guid and Listtess, Despondent, .Sleepless and
troubled with Nervous Apprehensions or Fears,
or any of the affections symptomatic OF Weak
ness, will find immediate relief and convincing
evidence OF its restorative power upon trial.

and only abandoning it at the last mo-

Salisbury towards Gladstone. A large
vote against the preamble shows that at

garry his point, by withdrawing the bill
immediately, to be followed by a speedy
