ure of duty to Others Conduct yourselves
so you shall be missed with sorrow when
you are gone. Multitudes aef our species
are living in such selfish manner that they
are not likely to be remembered after their
disappearance. They leave behind them
scarcely any traces of their existence, and
are forgotten almost as though they had
never been. They are, while they live,
like some pebble lying unobserved among
million on the shore; and when they die
they are like that same pebble thrown into
the sea, which just rufaes the surface, sinks,
and IS forgotten, without being missed from
the beach They are neither regretted by
the rich, wanted by the poor, nor celebrated
by the learned. Who has been the better
for their life Whose tears have they dried
up? Whose wants supplied Whose misery
have they healed? Who would unbar the
gate of life to re.admit them to existence
or what face would greet them back again
to our work with smile Wretched, un-

Exuberant Health.

rs blessing vouchsafed to few. Even
those who have been favored by nature
with strong constitutions and vigorous
frames are apt to neglect the precautions
necessary to preserve these precious en-
dowments. Indeed, as rule, the more
healthy and robust a man is, the more
liberties he is inclined to take with his
own physique.- It is some consolation to
the naturally weak and feeble to know
that they can be so invigorated and built
up. by a proper use of tho means which
science has placed at their disposal, as to
have much better chance OF long LIE,
and exemptions from disease and pain,
than the most athletic of their fellows
who are foolish enough to suppose them
selves invu1nerable, and act accordingly.
1t is not TOO much to say that more
than half the people of the civilized world
need an occasional tonic, to enable them
to support the strain upon their bodies
and minds, which the fast life OF this
restless age occasions. In fact, pure,
wholesome, uneXciting tonic is the grand
desideratum Of the busy millions, and
they have the article in Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters. 1t is q staminal medicine, i.
e. it imparts permanent strength TO weak
systems and invigcrates delicate constl-
tutions. Its reputation and Its sales nave
steadily increased. Competitive pre-
prepations have been introduced Gd
hditun,, and, as far as the public is con-
cerned, ad nauseasn, in the hope of rival
ing it; but they have all either perished
in the attempt, or been left far in the
rear. 1t has been the great medical sue
cess of the present century, and tits quite
certain that no proprietary medicine in
this country is as widely known, or as
generally used.
Ten lightning presses, running inces-
sanity (Sundays excepted,) tho whole
year through, barely supply the demand
for the Illustrated Almanac, in which the
nature and uses of the preparation are
set forth, the circulation now being over
eight millions year.

Edgefield Enterprise Invading Au-

As will be seen by reference to our ad-
vertising columns, three young gentle
men of Edgefield have just opened a
large Grocery Business in Augusta
Capt. Tom. Carwile, Mr.. Edward Carwlle,
and Mr. Willie Carwile-sons Of our
universally esteemed fellow citizen, Ma
ior q. w. Carwile. These three brothers
are widely known in our District, al
though the Senior, Capt, Tom, is still
quite young man. They are thorough
gentlemen, and thoroughly good men.
AS gentlemen, as citizens, as business
men, they will wear well wherever they
go. Everybody at home-one OF the
best signs in the world !-unfeigr edly
wishes them well. And we can assure
the business world and social conrmuni-
ty of Augusta that they will be gamers
by the acquisition of the Carwiles.

Local Jottings.

For three highs past, that excellent
preacher and earnest christian, the Rev.
w. Fl. LAwroN, who lives in the Nine
ty-Six section, has preachedto large con-
cregations in the Methodist Church Of
our town. Signs of deep and serious
feeling have been manifested, and 1t Is
probable this preaching will develop it.
self into an important meeting.
Lately we have had floods and torrents
of rain-almost equal to the "Tidal
Wave" predicted by Prof. Agassiz. or
course almost every one has heard, by this
time, of the fearful Tidal Wave, so or GO

deyastate all the Southern Atlantic Sea

the 5th of October 1t is occasioning
much talk and speculation, and in some
quarters great alarm. But Prof. Agas-
siz. who is now in South America, is too
truly a scientific man to have really made
any such prediction. I. 5 all stuff, and
no Tidal Wave will come. But we have
had several lately in the Beaver Dam
and Academy Branch, occasioning great
trouble to bridges, wayfarers, and bot
toni lands.
Very soon we are to have the us,la,
,;noctial "New Goods" sensation
The first Of our merchants to depart for
:. the great marts OF trade was Mr.. j.
TT CuEArIIAM-our friend "ToBY''-
who has been gone so long that he must
be looking at each and every article
through a spy glass, before buying it.
Mr.. w. II. BRUNsoN has also been gone
long enough to be back, but still he lin
gers. Both these Edgefield merchants
arc doubtless at this moment "chin-

Madame Rallings.

who is already opening Tidal Wave

After vacation of over two months,
the boys and girls have again swung on
their school satchels and resumed their
studies. The summer although hot
one, has not been unpleasant for young
people. They have had their social gath

dance of fruit, and with all been blessed
with excellent health; and now if they
are not:thankful, and willing and deter
