Liberal Republicans.

Yesterday was the day appointed for the as.
sembling of the Liberal Republican Conven'
tion at Cincinnati, and we may expect to give
the results of this gathering of anti-Grant Re-
publicans in our next issue. Much depends
upon the action of this Convention, and its
proceedings will be watched with the deepest
interest in every section of the country.
1t appears that South Carolina will be repre-
sented at Cincinnati. Judge r. B. Carpenter
George Shrewsbury, R. E. Dereef and Richard
Hollaway compose the delegation from Charles
ton. The three last named are intelligent
colored men. At meeting of Liberal Repub.
licans, held in Columbia last Saturday evening,
the following gentlemen were elected delegates
viz: w. X. Greenfield, DR.. E. w. Wheeler
( uuel A. Pearce, jr., and Nicholas Shelton.

The Great Hair Producer.

Hair Oils, Pomatum and Pomades have had
their day. They belong to the musty past. No
body that understands the chemistry Of the hair
and the philosophy of its growth thinks Of
using them. Instead of clogging the pores Of
the scalp with thin onguents, and thus obstruc-
ting the insensible perspiration which is essen
tial to the health of the fbres we now tone the
surface of the head with an invigorating appG-
cation which penetrates to the roots of the hair
and stimulates them in the same way that the
fertihzing agents spread over the meadows
stimulate the grass roots and cause the blades
to spring up in myriads, coating the earth with
verdure. The invigorant best adapted to this
purpose is LYONS KATHA1RoN. 1t may well
be called the fertilizer Of the head To the bar
rem scalp it communicates vegetable power. II
the hair is dropping out OF becoming dry and
withcred, it arrests the process of dilapidation
or blight The hair thickens and becomes CLOS
sy and flexible under its genial operation, and
as dressing it is unapproached by any prepar-
alton that has yet been laid on the toilet of
Fashion.

How We Used to be Physicked.

Who does not remember the time when spring
purgation was considered Indispensable to sum-
mer health? No matter for wry faces, the inevi-
table salts and SIENNA, rhubarb, or calomel and,
jalap, must be administered. These "spring
medicines the youngest were told, were to
keep them hale and hearty during the summer.
We all know now that this was fallacy; that
new vigor, not depletion, is what is required at
the commencement of the summer solstice. AS
apreparation for the enervating effects foppres-
sive sumner weather, course of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters is highly eXpedient. This ia,
NOUS vegetable preparation has three prominent
properties 1t renovates, purifies, and regulates
all the functions of the body. 1t is composed eNS
clusively ofpure vegetable productions, viz: the
essential principle of Monongahela Rye, and the
most efcacious tonic and Alternative roots, barks,
and gums known to medical botanists. Hence,
it is an absolutely safe medicine, and no tincture
of the Pharmacop9ia can compare with it either
in purity in the variety of its objects, and its
comprehensive results. Happily for mankind,
the theory that it was necessary to PROSTATE q
patient in order to cure him, is forever exploded,
and the true philosophical doctrine, that vigor Is
one great antagonist of disease has taken its
place. Hostettor Bitters Is an iicvigOrant, and
hence it is the proper medicine for the feeble at
this most trying season of the year.
Be sure that you obtain the genuine article, as
there areinnumerable vile limitations in the mar
ket Look to the ornamental stamp, the ehgrav-.
ell label, and the name blown into the glass;
Hostetter's Stomach Bittcrs is sold in bottles
Only.

Our Next Governor.

Under this caption, we find an article in the
Carolina New Ere, published at spartanburg,
earnestly arguing in favor of the nomination
of Hon. James L. Orr for the next Governor.
The editor says that public sentiment is fasten-
ing upon Judge Orr as the man for the crisis,
and intimates that his Honor cannot decline
the responsibility in view of the urgent neces-
sites for retrerchment and reform in public
affairs. The great obstacle to success as Gov
ernor is incompetency among members of the
General Assembly, and the remedy for this de-
feet is in the hands of the people. They can
and ought to send good men, honest men, pa
triotic men to the Legislature. With this ac-
conplished, and man of large experience and
decided ability at the helm, the editor thinks
that all will be well.

THIRTY-SEvEN STATES REpREsENTED-The
Washington correspondent Of the New York
World thus records the admission of Gen. RAN
som as Senator from North Carolina, which
took place on the 24th ult., after the Senate had
rejected the claims of Abbott, the Radical con-
testant:
For the first time since the South Carolina
Senators withdrew after the secession of that
State in 1860, twelve years ago, all of the States
of the Union are fully represented in the Sem
ate of the United States. Through all the va
rious phases of reconstruction and the contests
over individual seats this result was not reached
until to-day when General Ransom, the new
Democratic Senator from North Carolina, was
duly admitted, thus filling the only vacancy in
thirty-seven States. The result in this particu-
lar case was surprisingly brought about without
any objection. As soon as the Senate convened
this morning Mr.. Morton, from the Committee
on Privileges and Elections reported that the
committee had examined the credentials of Mr..
Ransom as Senator from North Carolina to see
that they were in proper form, and the commit
tee accordingly recommend that he be admitted
to his seat There being no objection, Mr..
Ransom came forward and was sworn in, taking
the modified oath. Mr.. Thurman then arose
and said that now, for che first time since 1861,
every seat in the Senate was filled, and every
State was represented on this floor. 1t was
fact upon which the Senate and the country
might congratulate themselves. The ordinary
business was then proceeded with.

Nearo Debts.

/ The Supreme Court of the United States has
recently decided that bonds and notes given for
slaves are valid obligations, Notwithstanding
the prohibition in State Constitutions against
their collection. This is substantially the de-
eision, announced twelve months ago by the
Supreme Court of this State, and it is stated
that the views expressed in the judgment of
the Supreme Court of the United States accord
in great measure with those upon which our
Court based its decision So far as constitu-
tiopal questions are involved, all doubts are
now removed, and obligations for thepurchase of
slaves are binding upon the makers. 1t is a
most important decision, and will give rise to
an immense amount Of litigation IN the South.
Wherever it is practicable, we would suggest
that compromises of all such claims will be
made at once.

= The Newberry Herald states that mcnin-
getis is still doing its work of death in certain
portions of that county. 1t is not little re-
markable that this fearful disease is confined
entirely to the colored population, not single
white person so far being affected, and this fact
has excited the superstition of the plantation
negroes to considerable extent. One of the
popular ideas is that certain spring has been
poisoned; another is that there are witches
about, and still another that the bacon brought
to Newberry has been poisoned.
A Convention of Baptists, embracing del
egates from West Tennessee, North Mississippi

of the Springfield Republican, writes: 81 have
all along thought Trumbull and John Quincy

pose that both candidates should be Republi-
cans"

KU KLUX TRIALS IN CHARLESToN-Ihe
proceedings of the United States Circuit Court
indicate lack of interest in the trials OF per-
sons indicted under the Enforcement Act. We
give summary of the business last week:
The trial of John Rogers, of Union, was
concluded on Tuesday. The evidence was in
sufficient to connect the accused with any con-
spracy, and after an absence of seven hours,
the jury failed to agree upon verdict. Judge
Bond discharged tie jury, and ordered mis-
trial.
There were no trials in any of the Ku Klux
cases on Wednesday. Andrew j. Martin,
James A. Sanders and VIM. D. Barnes, of
York, pleaded guilty to charges of conspiracy.
David Ramseur, indicted for conspiracy and
the murder of Tom Roundtree, pleaded guilty to
the first charge, upon the murder count being
abandoned by the government. 90. !.
VIM. NJ. Fulton, of York, was arraigned on
Thursday upon charge of general conspiracy,
and pleaded guilty.
The case of Thomas Zimmerman, of Spar
tanburg, charged with conspiracy and murder,
was taken up on Friday. The testimony on
the part of the prosecution was conflicting, and
failed to connect the defendant with either
conspiracy or murder. The defence did not
deem it necessary to produce any witnesses,
and under the instruction of the Court, the ju-
ry returned verdict of not guilty, when the
prisoner was ordered to be released from GUS
tody. The Court then adjourned over until
Monday, when the trial of Robert Riggens, of
York, upon the charge of conspiracy and muir
der, was expected to commence. On Saturday,
the grand jury found true bills for conspiracy
and murder against the prisoners from Clinton,
in Laurens County, who were taken to Charles
ton last week

the number of bales shipped from Pendleton,

eed that II 1878 bales of cotton were shipped
from Anderson last year. We did not include

ahead of her neighbors as a cotton market
