BRONCHITIS. -r This is an irritation or milan
nation of the bronchial tubes which carry the
air we breath into the lungs 1t arises from
a cold settled in the throat, from catarrh eX-
tending to these parts, from scrofulOus affec-
tons, and from severe use Of the voice The
irritation from this latter cause commences in
the Lryar and gi"t;s. which are the organs Of
the voice, and, extending downwards, Produ-
ces hoarseness, coughing and splitting mucOu
matter, sometimes mixed with blood. IL Is
chiefly dangerous from its tendency TO spread
into the lungs, and terminate in consumption.

GrumblerS at Newspapers.

Horace Greeley thus hits the nail
on the head : cit is strange how
closely men read the papers. We
never saw anything that anybody
didn't like, but we soon hear of it.
If, however, once in while We hap
pen to say good thing, wo never
hear of that nobody seems to notice
that. We may pay some man hun.
dred compliments, and give him
dozen paffs, and he takes it as trib-
ute to his greatness, and he never
thinks it does him any good; But if
wo happen to say anything this man
didn't like, or something that no
imagines a reflection on him or his
haraoter, see how quick he flares up
and gets mad about it. All cur evils
arc duly charged to US, but we never
apparently, get any credit for what
good VIC do.

GENTLEMEN sec by the news

Of South Carolina bonds "to take con-
ccrted and Immediate action to COM
pei the payment of tho accrued and
unpaid interest on tho bonds of tho
State with authority to employ coun-
sci to commence legal proceedings
against the officers of the State, or its
legal Financial Board" I am glad
Tho bond.holdcrs arc moving in this
matter. They havo rights which aro
indisputable, and they should be res.
pcctcd. | write to inform you that
heartily endorse the bondholdcrs in
their movement, and advise an united
and determined effort on their part to
secure their just rights. Tho State
debt is sacred debt. 1t has been in.
cured by necessity and in accordance
with law. The resources of tho State
arc abundant to meet tho interest
and for my part, either rs n private
Officer, have done and shall continue
to do all in my power to accomplish
the end at which you aim.
The State Auditor, who is appoint
cd by the Governor, is authorized by
law 10 levy II tax to pay tho cntiro
interest on the public debt, and
should ho fail to do his duty in this
respect, the Governor should enforce
compliance with the requirements Of
the law. l would suggest, that all tho
bond-holdcrs you can secure, unto at
once in demanding Of tho Governor
MI immediate lovy of taxes, and +
think your object will be attained.
The statement, said to have been
made by Judge Willard, "hat ST.
100000 or 81 100000 had been re.
ccivod into tho Treasury from tho salo
of delinquent lands," is totally Mt
Variance with tho facts in the case, as
comparatively nothing has been re-
ccivcd on that account.
The Legislature havo made ample
provision for the future, and all that
is required is the executions of the
laws. Respectfully, your obediont
servant,

A Timely Rescue.

On Saturday night between eleven
and twelve O'CLOCK the residents of
Sullivan's Island heard r. heated cries
for "help,' that proceeded from n
small beat with sail up, which was
IL king to sea. The cries continuing
a i being of n distressing character,
a crowd gathered on the beach, some
with lanterns, hoping to ascertain the
cause. A number of gallant young men
determined to man boat and 70 to
the craft and see what was the matter.
BY the dint Of sheer labor they over.
took the boat, and found that it con-
tanned two colored men, Wm. Henry
Horny and Aaron Williams, who had
given up all hope Of managing the
boat and were drifting to sea. The
boat bearing the significant pame of
Small Hope, belonged to Gobbcl's farm,
whittier they were trying to 60, when
the wind died away and left them to
the mercy of the cbbing tide. The
young men carried them back to the
Island, and by their very praise wor-
thy conduct saved the poor unfortu =
mates from sad fate.- Charleston

Family Events in Old Times,

Our forefathcrs, says an English
magazine, had a knack of advertising
momentous family events in q fashion
more interesting to the general public
than we do in these degenerate latter
days. Take a few Of tho dcmises
first, as they were announced $50 years
ago "April 1871. Mr.. John Mid
dleton, wholesaler bodice maker. Re-
ported worth 100000" How much
more information is there in this than
the bare obituary notice of the pres
eat day. Here, again, under the
same date "Mr. Green, at Wands
worth. Worth GlC,0OO.' And a
little further on We have another of the
same "Relict Of Mr.. Chambers,
pawnbroker, of Blackmoor street.
Worth Gl5,000." We now turn to
the more cheerful chronicle of the
marriages, about the same date !:
"Mr. Bridges to Miss knight, lady
of 100000 fortune" Here, however
is q still more aristocratic announce.
ment. "The Id. Petre to Miss Rat
cliff, daughter Of the Il. of Dcrwent.
water, whose fortune is said to be
G50,000." How tho mouths of un-
successful suitors must have watered
with vcxation in those days, when the
lady fortune was thus open y confess.
ed before the world.

Game Fowls in a New Role.

A gentleman of this city has a
game rooster and two pullets which
are equal to any dog or cat as mousers
and rat catchers, and so intent are
they in catching and destroying these
pests that they have almost entirely
extermiuated them from his promises.
Wo have heard of the ferocious quail.
ties of tho game fowls, but this is tho
first instance we have heard of in
which they have figured in the partic-
ular role alluded to. Instead Of keep.
ing dogs, which are Liable at any mo.
ment to engendcr hodrophobia, or
cats which have tendency to scratch
and bite, and mako night hideous
with their "courting scrapes," it
would DO good idea for our citi-
zens to procure some of the breed Of
fowls from the gentleman alluded to
for tho protection of their premises
from the encroachments of rats and
mioe.- VII. Star.

Man Under the Bed.

Screams from room in house In

Der of neighbors, who rushed in and
found young lady aoout seventeen
years old, clad in what is modestly
denominated a No. garment tightly

AS soon as she could be made to

it was a big Thomas cat. She now

Further Particulars about tho Killing OF
LOwrey-Thc Outlaws OH the Var Path
The Political Situation, &c.

LUMBEnroN, July 22.-Mcssrs.
Editors Tom Lowroy, the outlaw,
was killed on Saturday morning last,
about 8 o'clock. A party consisting
of Strong and Bob Wishart, jas.
Mckay and Jas. Campbell, had been
on his track during tho night and had
seen him in company with scme loose
women, but could not shoot without
killing some ono of them. The party
concealed themselves at the ford Of
Hcly Swamp, where he would have to
cross in going to the speaking at
Union Chapel. Accordingly, in com.
pany with one of his white associates,
he made his appearance and was
heard by the party swearing that he
would 60 to the speaking that day or
burst something, and about that time
somthipg did burst and discharge
from the gun of JAS. Mckay did the
work.
Lowrey run about fifty yards into
the swamp and fell, to rise no more.
He was on his way to Union Chapel
to engage with Steve Lowrey and An.
d,ew Strong in the killing Of Sheriff
Mcmillan, which was no doubt. frus.
trated by the death Of Tom, as the
other two were already on the ground
armed and equipped.
A reward Of $4,000 by the State
ard $500 by the county had been
offered for the capture or killing of
Iowrey. The latter was paid by the
Sheriff.
The same party declare their intcn-
tion of getting the balance of the
gang before they stop, and the out.
laws are also on tho war path for
them. On yesterday they were in
hearing of Back Swamp speaking, fr-
ing off pistols, &C., and had built
blind near the road. You may expect
to hear soon of the death of somo Of
the parties on one side or the other.
1t was Steve who killed Frank Wis.
hart sometime ago.
The political situation in this coun-
ty is very encouraging. The opinion
is that the Conservative ticket vii
be elected. Greeley is gaining daily
and wc have not seen but two or three
Democrats who refuse to vote the
Greeley and Brown ticket.
