tried it, know that it cured them; those who have
not, know that IL cures theirncighbers and friends;
and all know that what it does once it does al
ways - that it never fails through any fault orneg-
glect ofits composition. We have thousands upon
thousands Ofcertilicates Oftheir remarkable cures
OF the following complaints, but such cures are
known in every neiglb0rhoOd, and VIC need not
publish them. Adapted to all ages and conditions
In all climates containing neither calOmel norany
dcleterious drug, they may DO taken with safety
by anybody. Their sugar-coating preserves them
ever fresh, and makes them pleasant to take, while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise from
their use in any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on the

and by correcting, wherever they exist, such de-
rangemoats as are the first origin OF disease.
Minute directions are given in the wrapper on
the box, for the following complaints, which these
PHU rapidly curc:-
For Dyspepsia or Indigestion, ListIcss-
ness, LanguOr and loss Of Appetite, they
should be taken moderately to stimulate the stom-
ach, and restore its healthy tone and action.
For Liver Complaint and its various symp-
toms, Bilious Headache, Sick Head
ache, J~aundice or Green Sickness, Bill.
tOus Collie and Bilious Feyers, they should
DO judiciously taken for each case, to correct the
diseased action on remove tho distractions which
cause Ii.
For Dysentery or DiarrhOea, but one
mild dose Is generally required.
For Rheumatism, GOut, Gravel, Pal.
pitati0n Of the Heart, Pain in the
side, Back and LOins, they should be contin.
uously taken, as required, to change the diseased
action Of the system. With such change those
complaints disappear.
For DrOpsy and Dr0psical Swe1Iings
they should be taken in large and frequent doses
TO produce the effect Of drastic purge.
For Suppression q large dose should DO
taken as 1t produces the desired effect by SYM
pathy.
AS q Dinner Pin, take one or two Pills TO
promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, restores the appetite,
and nvigorates the system. Hence IL Is often adj
yantageous where no serious arrangement exists.
Ono who feels tOlerahly well, often finds that q
dose of these Pills makes him feel decidedly bet
ter, from their cleansing and renoyating effect on
the digestive apparatus.

selves, but when the Vice. President of the United
States and the Chairman of the Finance Com
mittee of the Senate talk about "natural absorp-
ton in passing from hand to haud," the insult to
the people becomes insuffcrable. No doubt it is
very natural" for these officials to absorb: but
instead of accepting the explanation as satishctO-

Washington be brought to judgment. "Naural

appeals to the gentlemen of South Carolina to

"Where were these tender-hearted officials
then? What aid did General Butler and General
Kershaw receive from Scott and Robertson
Are we to suffer all and bear all, while they enjoy
all?
"peace is on excellent thing. But there are
some sorts of peace that are even worse than
war. Is this the peace that Scott and Robertson
would have us enjoy? If they are in earnest, let
them retire and use their influence in having good
men put in their places. No protestations Of

Nesro Imnudence.

The Savannah News says that 4 few days ago
the conductor on the Central Railroad train, on
taking charge at Millen, discovered negro woman
and her two children in the ladies' car. He i'm
mediately informed her that she could not ride
where sho was, but must take seat in first
class car especially provided for colored people.
She replied that she had ridden from Washington
ID. C.) in the ladies' car and that she held first
class ticket and would ride where she was. Though
politely informed that it was contrary to tho rules
of the company, she still refused to move, and
the conductor called in his train hands and had
her removed to another car. She afterwards at
tempted to return to the car, and tLe oonductvf
opposing her, she slapped him in the face. She
was required, however, to ride in her proper place
to Savannah. Nothing shows more clearly the
negroes want of self-respect than their their do
sire to force themselves in place where they are
not wanted. Southern railroads are owned by
white men, and they intend to control them.

.With Groanings That Cannot be Ut.
tered,',

Tho iniquitous taxation under which the people
of South Carolina Low labor, is q subject not to
be exhausted. Of course We all return to it from
time to time, with groanings thatcannot uttered.
We give practical illustration of the workings
of this taxation. There is family in this town
that, until very recently, owned q house and lot
in Charleston. The aggregate rent for this house
since the conclusion of the war, has amounted to
$500, of which the parties in interest have re-
ceived 500. Insurance and few needed repairs
have taken part of this money, but considera-
bly, more than half has been swallowed up by
the tax. This property, belonging to an undi-
vded estate, was sold the other day for S35OO, the
tax cost upon selling it amounting to $3.50 or
more. Under the old mode of legal procedure
it would have amounted to less than $lO0. 1t is
unnecessary to add that the said property was
bought by high State official, negro. Who in
South Carolina, now-a- days, has money, except
Radical ofice-hOlders?

as- The Mobile Register, commenting on the
late disturbance at Meridian, Miss, says truly:
"Thosc who imagine .southerners are going to
stand still and be insulted; spat upon, threatened
and murdered by bands of negroes crazed with
Radical teachings will see what will be the result
hereafter, elsewhere than Meridian. In any con-
fict with the whites the negro has and always
will 20 to the wall. Hence tho folly and wicked
ness of arraying them against the white man, so
persistcntly done by the Radicals for party pur-
poses. The whites know this, and deploro the
necessity of meeting foroe with force, for having
been raised with them and being accustomed to
them, the whites of the South have none but the
kindcst feelings for the negroes, whom they now
see driven hither and thither to serve political
purposes by bad and designing Radicals; but they
must and will protect themselves, their wives,
children and property, against such violence as
this Meridian, to the bitter end"
