one may readily believe that the
telegraph in Chinese is no very easy
matter, seeing that that language has
no alphabet, and is made up o. about
fifty thousand different characters, and
vet the managers of the Chinese Sub
marine Telegraph Company have at
last surmountedthe difficulty. Several
thousand of the characters mosti in use
are u on wooden blocks, resembling
types. at the reverse end of which
Numbers are engraved. The Chinese
at Hong Kong who wish to send q
letter to his friend in Shanghai, hands
the message, written in Chinese to a
native clerk, who selects the CORES
ponding blocks and prints the mum
bers which are on their reverse end.
The slip is then given to an English
clerk, who telegraphs it to its destIna-
ton, where the process is reversed, and
the man i'll Shanghai receives the
message stamped il Chinese characters

Re Guided by what ycu Know.

There is an old proverb which says, Experience

Inquire what medicine has done for others, before
they adopt it themselves. or all the remedies and
preventves in use, Hosieters Stomach Bit'ers meets
the test most triumphanily, and hence its immense
popularity and vast sales The sufferer from ndi'
gestion is sure to find some one among his friend:
who has been cured Of that ailmeat by the famous
vegetable siomachic. The victim of fever and ague
liver complaint constipation, nervous prosraon, OF
general debility, has only to make inquiry in the
neighborhood where he resides in order to discover
what this standard restorative has effected in cases
similar to his own. In the published testimon! 10
lis merits he will find volume Of pro-fs Of It's sani-
tary properties which IL is impossible for his COM
mon sense to resist He tries il ar the efecti pro-
duces on his system adds another TO the host oi Wit
nesses in IFS favor. Thus, Its reputation, founded on
facts not assertions, continually grows and spreads
Charlaans and impostors stOe Of Them mere local
tricksters and others who take somewhat wider
range, attempt TO thrust into the hands and down
the throats Of nvalids their haphazard concocuons
as substitutes for the tonic which for so many years
has been medicinal staple throughout the United
States, Spanish America, Canada, and the west In
dies, but only succeed to very limited extent In
this reasoning age. the people, having ascertaned
what is really deserving nf their confidence, decline

No Court, as Usual.

The regular fall term of the Court of
Common Pleas and General Sessions met
on Monday last, Judge Melton present,
and adjourned at noon on Tuesday.
Nothing could be done. NoJury. Three
grand jurors and FIVE petit jurors to be-
gin Court with! The present law re.
quires that the Jury shall be drawn fif-
teen days before the sitting of Court, and
that the Jury Commissioner, Clerk,
Sheriff, Chairman of the Board Of Coun-
t. Commissioners, shall all be present at
the drawing. At the late drawing for our
District, however, two of these officials
were absent-chose to be absent, we have
no doubt-and more than that, most OF
the persons drawn were never notified.
Judge Melton is to return to Edgefield
on the 9th instant, to try cases equity
business, &C., which do not require the
intervention of Jury.
In the meantime the course of Justice
is deliberately stayed by these Radical
County officials, and much delay ex-
pense confusion and distress must ne
cessarily ensue. If trouble exists in this
part of the country at present, it Is only
such as is designedly and crimlnaliy
brought about by the Radical party.

and jodred in Richland Jail, charged with
being a Ku Klux. Mr. Greer is a one

malicious revenge, and the County Is

In addition to all this our people are IN
