The Rural Carolinian.

One of the most graceful and deserved COM
pliments we have lately observed is the follow
ing notice of the above Damed sterling monthly,
which we copy from the last number of The
Plantation, published at Atlanta, Ga, and one
of the most welcome exchanges upon our list.
Its unstinted praise of the Rural Carolinian is
generous, well-timed and entirely appropriate
"We observe that this valuable monthly con-
tinues its march of improvement. Besides the
ordinary subjects discussed in agricultural jour
nails, it has two departments, both conducted by
eminent men-one department of Applied
Chemistry and Mineralogy, conducted by G.
U. Sheppard, jr., assisted by his distinguished
father, whose reputation is European as we'll as
American; the other department is one of
Natural History, conducted by the well-known
Entomologist, Mr.. Charles R. Dodge, Of the
Bureau of Agriculture, Washington.
"When one of our contemporaries displays
this liberal spirit, and invests so large an
amount of capital, as has occurred in the case
of the Rural Carolinian we think that it is a
proper subject of comment and favorable no.
tice. The price of this valuable monthly jour-
nal is but two dollars per annum. Our readers
cannot use that sum more wisely than by sub
scribing for it. Address, Walker, Evans &
Cogswell, Charleston, S. c."

The Trade in Fertilizers.

Upon careful inquiry, we have ascertained
from the dealers in fertilizers that eleven hum
dred and eighty-fve tons of the various COM
nercial manures have been sold in this market
during the season now closing. The average
price is about S62 per ton, and this would make
an Investment of S73, $40 for Anderson County.
large portion of the sales have been made
upon time, and we presume that nearly $4,000
remains unpaid. Estimating the cotton crop,
uoon which these fertilizers will mostly be
used at 1000 bales for this County, and as
sunaing the price tc be realized at 20 cents per
pound, we have an expenditure of nearly 10
rer cent. for the use of fertilizers The esti-
mated yield and price of cotton is at the maxi
mum figures, we presume, and of course re-
duction of either would increase the per cent
invested in fertilizers. Our farmers, as gen.
eral rule are making the strongest efforts to
increase the production of cotton, and with
favorable seasons and an average crop, we are
inclined to think that the use of fertilizers will
augment their profits next fall. At least, We
sincerely hope that there will be no cause of
regret for this extraordinary investment.

4 Terrible Tornado.

A. severe storm of wind and rain visited this
section ON last Thursday afternoon, although
we hear of no serious damage resulting there
from in this or neighboring Counties. Trees
were uprooted, in some instances, and the pas
senger train over the Blue Ridge Railroad was
hindered for short time that evening by the
tops of trees blown and reaching acroas the
track. Other portions of the State were not so
fortunate, however. in escaping the fury Of the
tornado's desolating touch. The inhabitants
of Chester County are especially entitled TO our
sympathies, as dwelling-houses were swept away
in their midst, and other serious injuries in
aicted upon persons and property full ac-
count of which will be found in another col
ann. In Columbia, likewise, the gusts of wind
did some damage to buildings in course OF
erection, including the new market building,
which was nearly finished, and which was
completely destroyed. The huge timbers were
broken and rendered useless, and the whole
structure will have to be rebuilt.

The True Grounds of Confidence.

Whence COMES that firm reliance, that abso-
lutte, undoubting faith in the efficacy of Hos.
letters Stomach Bitters as remedy for indi-
gestion, bilious disorders, intermittent and re-
mittent fevers, which notoriously prevail in all
parts of the United States7 This confidence
has been growing for twenty years, and is still
extending. 1t is not the result of credulity; it
has not been engendered by any human device,
but is the spontaneous and natural consequence
of experience. What people see daily going ON
under their own eyes they cannot question:
When families in unhealthy districts that resort
to this wholesome vegetable tonic, as prevent
ative, escape periodical fevers, and their imme.
date neighbors, who neglect this precaution,
are prostrated by the disease, how is it possible
that the phenomenon should be without its les
son? In like manner when it is seen that Oh
stinate cases of dyspepsia, of liver complaint,
of constipation, of nervous weakness, and of
general debility, yield to the operation of the
famous remedy, how can even incredulity it.
self withhold its endorsement? Eye-witnesses
of the salutary effects of the salutary effects of
the bitters are to be found in every civilized
settlement on this continent. The thousands
upon thousands who owe their restoration to
health and strength, or their preservation from
sickness, to its extraordinary medicinal prop
critics, are enthusiastic in its praise. The null
titudes who recommend it in neighborly way
to their friends and acquaintances, well as
those who make public their estimate Of its
virtues, are always ready to state their reasons
for the faith that is in them. They have all

Before the Supreme Court.

The case of the State vs. George W. Rankin
was argued before the Supreme Court on last
Monday, on an appeal from the Circuit Court.
Messrs. MCGOWAN and Thos. Thomson appeared
for the appellant, and Messrs. j. P. Reed and
B:F. Whitner for the State. The Columbia
Union, in reporting the proceedings, says {:
3This case was of usual interest, it being an
appeal from the Circuit Court for Anderson
County, from the conviction of the defendant
for q nuisance charging the same with having
destroyed the health of the vicinity and caused
the death of many persons, thus not only affect
ing the property OF appellant, but touching his
character as to his moral responsibility for
such serious results. Hence able counsel rep
resented the appeal on both sides, and argu-
ments were full of research and learning"

- The Spartanburg Spartan says that Minor
Paris, who has for many years attended to the
fishery of the Magnetic Iron Company, at
Cherokee Ford on Broad River, was in his boat
out in the stream q few days ago, when party
of Federal soldiers from the York side road up
and ordered him to halt, just as he was moving
for the Spartanburg shore where he lived.
Failing to halt his boat, number of shots
were fired at him, some of which took effect
and killed him. The soldiers were in quest of
Paris for alleged violations of the Ku Klux
law.
The Due West A. r. Presbyterian, in allud-
ing to the recent arrests in Newberry and Lau-
rens, and the large number of persons who
have fed from those countless makes the fol-
lowing suggestion: "This is deplorables
of things. Is there no way to stop it2 Could
not Judge Orr and few others of our leading
men do something for these counties by inter-
ceding? There have been some outrages COM
mitted in those counties as well as in other
places in the State, but not lately, and what is
to be gained by this persistent persecution of
the whites ?-this wholesale Imprisonment of
communities? There is great wrong some
where in this thing and some one ought to
move in an attempt to remedy the evil"

North Carolina.

The Republican State Convention met in
Raleigh on Wednesday, 18th inst, for the pur-
pose of nominating candidates for State officers
to be elected next August Gov. Tod R. Cald-
well was re-nominated by handsome majority,
but his nomination elected considerable oppo-
sition. The resolutions adopted endorse the
administrations of President Grant and Gov.
Caldwell, declare in favor of general amnesty,
and take wide range in behalf of public
schools. Nearly thousand delegates are said
to have been present, and much enthusiasm
and good order prevailed. The Charlotte De-
spatch says this Convention is believed to be the
most respectable and intelligent Radical body
ever assembled in the South. Delegates to the
Philadelphia Convention we're appointed, and
an adjournment took place on Thursday even
ing.
The Democratic Conservative State Conven-
ton will meet at Greensboro on Wednesday
next, 1st day of May, for the purpose OF making

The KU KLUX TRIALS IN CHARLESTON
We make the following summary of cases be-
fore the United States Circuit Court during the
past week.
Leander Spencer and William Smith, charged
with conspiracy and murder of Charlie Good,
were arraigned and tried on Tuesday. The
Jury remained in session eighteen hours, and
finally disagreed upon the murder count in the
indictment, when they were discharged and
the prisoners remanded for another trial. Sub
sequently, the government consented to with
draw the charge of murder, when the prisoners
pleaded guilty of conspiracy and were remain
ded for sentence.
George S. Wright and John G. Robinson, of
York, indicted for conspiracy, pleaded guilty
and were remanded for sentence.
Elijah Ross Sapaugh, of York, indicted at
the last term of the Court for conspiracy against
Thomas Roundtree and others, and for the
murder of Thos. Roundtree on, the 3rd of De-
cember, 1870 was arraigned on Friday, when
the defendant pleaded not guilty. The case
went to the jury at ten o'clock that night, and
after al absence of one hour, the jury returned
n verdict of guilty, with recommendation to
the clemency of the Court and the Executive.
Counsel for the defendant entered motion in
arrest of judgment.
Mr.. John P. Hood, of York, charged with
conspiracy, was admitted to bail in the sum
of $4,000 on Friday.
On Saturday, there were no trials, in conse-
qucnce of the defendants pleading guilty in
each case These were Elijah Bennett, James
Kimball, John Chapman, Benz. Strickland,
James Kimball, jr., and Calvin Moore, of Spar
tanburg, charged with conspiracy. They we're
remanded to Jail for sentence.
On Monday, the case of James Rodgers, of
Union, indicted for conspiracy and murder, was
taken up. The government abandoned the
murder charge, and the trial for conspiracy be-
gan. Four witnesses for the prosecution test-
fled to their own participation in several MUIR
ders
1t is understood, we believe, that the Circuit
Court will adjourn next week, and the ac-
cused remaining in Jail will be obliged to await
their trials in November next.

power over Consumption of the Lungs, had

uere Coughs, and is an invaluable remedy for
diseases of the Liver, and also as Blood Puri-

might mislead and prevent its use in other dis
eases for which it is so admirably adapted.

it does it not by drying it up, but by removing
tho cause-subduing the irritation and healing
the affected parts"
