ALPHA Pr.

INFLUENCE OF Books ON THE PRoGREss
OF THE PRESENT AGE.-The present century
is fr qucntly landed as prc-eminently the
great progressive age Of tho worlds history.
While it has been honored BY some of the
most importan. inventions and discoveries.
yet this is not its great distinguishing fea-
turc. 1t is particularly noted for the general
diffusion Of learning and the general i'm
provcmcnt of the mass Of civilized mankind.
This is due to the power Of fast printing
machinery, rendering books. magazines, etc,
cheap, and within the reach of every one.
What really constitutes the value Of useful
books? The fact that they are the records
of experience. Previously, the experience
gained by one man was useful only to those
in his immediate neighborhood, but now it is
spread broadcast over the world. We thus
learn many principles and many truths from
others, and are spared the labor of search
ing for them ourselves. 1t is thus that this
age has developed such remarkable progress
in the masses.
Buoks-rccorjs Of experience-are the
great workers in this great cause.
The Agricultural magazine is the great
medium for conveying the result Of farmer
AS experience to farmer B, and when j,
finds that f.rmer A, B, C, D, E, &C, will
have tic same experience, its duty is to ex-
tract the truth involved and present it in
concise form to the agricultural reader.
We know Of few magazines which more
fully understands Its peculiar sphere than
The Rural Caroliniau. The July number j.
now before US, and presents its usual supply
of facts, practice and truths. This magazine
should be encouraged-it is we'll encouraged
but while enough so for the publishers, ye,
not enough so for the farmers. Il should be
in every homestead in the South-it should
be the great medium of interchange Of expe
nences among the farmers Of the South, and
thus enable them to take their proper place
in the progress Of the age.

WASHINGTON, June 27.-Scot: and
Stephenson, Republicans, and VantFump'
democrat, have been appointed sub
Committee 10 visit certain portions OF
North and South Carolina Immediately,
to INQUIRE into the condition Of affairs.
The minority of the ku Klux committee e
ars anxious that the conservatives shall
secure a full hearing before the suo'com'
mi,tee. Itis understood that the testl,
mony of jacobson, the present, and
Adams. the District. Attorney to'
Missis ;ippi, is fully Satisfactory to tie
Democrats on the committee. Ger
Forrest was four hours before the CON-
mi,tee. He SAID if the Ku klux .ve'
existed in Tennessee, it MAS on account
Of Brownlow's proclamation Of 1867,
saving 10 the militia that they would
not be molestcd for outrages upon and
nunishmen: of rebels, and because o!
apprehension of injury to persons ano
p,o,crty, many negroes having left
their homes and were prowling through
the country with arms in their hands
Certainly 10 such organization has ex'
i>ted IN Tennessee since 1868. The pco
nle are as law.abiding, and deprecate
disturbances as much, as those living
North. The Committee treated Gen
Forrest with much courtesy and re-
spect.

EA \ FEW WORDS TO THF

E 4 FEW WORDS TO THE
LADIES.-Many ladies, PARTICULARLY me.
theirs nursing, complain Of tired, listless
feeling, or complete exhaustion, on arising
in the morning. Or the wife and mother
devolyes the responsibility Of regulating
the duties OF the household. Her cares are
numerous, and the mental as we'll as the
physical powers are frequently called into
reqnisition. She often finds her slightest
occupation a weary task and existence a
burden, while at the same time she has no
regular disease. Nostetter's Stomach Bit
tcrs, ii resorted to at this period, will prove
an unfailins remedy for this annoying las
situde. The effects Of this potent agent are
soon seen in the rosy cheek and elastic
step of the head of the family, as with re-
stored health and renewed spirits she takes
her accustomed place in the family circle.
II this friend in need be regularly used,
those depressing symptoms will never be
complained Of, and not only would ias,itude
not be experienced, but many diseases fol.
lowing its advent be avoided. AS medica!
agent it has no equal. while its pleasing
flavor and heal,nful effects have made it a
general tavorite. 1t is free from all pro.
pcrties calculated 10 impair the system, and
its operations arc at once mild, soothing
and efficient. All who have used the Bit.
tcrs attest its virtues and commend it to
use.
