THE World does not contain medicinal
preparation which has obtained more wide
spread and deserved popularity than the
Mexican Mustang Lniment. Since its in
PRODUCTION to public notice more than twenty
years ago, it has been constantly used for
every kind of disease or injury to man or
beast which can be affected by local appli-
cation, and so far as its proprietors are aware
it has not failed;n single instance. After
so long and successful term Of probation,
who will have the hardihood to deny its pre-
eminent claims to popular esteem.

New Radical Laws.

One of the newest and most recent OF the
laws passed by the Legislature. is one re-
quiring all deeds to real estate, within this
State, to be recorded within three days in
the Office of the Clerk of the County where
such real estate is situated, and providing
that such deed shall be void against sub
seouent purchaser who shall come and have
his deed recorded prior to the former pur=
chaser who neglccts to abide by this law.
Suppose that the deed is made out of the
State, say in New York, San Francisco or
England, it would be absurd to say that
such deed could by any possibility be record
ed within three days in the Office of the
Clerk ofthe County wherein it is situated,
and subsequent purchaser for valuable
consideration, might by some means, easily
procure his conveyance to be first recorded
and consequently the first deed would be
void
At least dozen points could be raised
at first sight, under this Act, yet they seem
to have entirely escaped the attention OF our
Solons. However, our readers now know
what the law is; let them take due notice
and act accordingly.

The Daily South CarOiininn.

Col. John P. Thomas, late editor of the
Columbia Phonir, having, in consequence of
the refusal ofthe proprietor to publish one
of his articles, relating to that great swindle,
the Blue Ridge railroad, dissolved his connect
ion with that paper, and has begun the pub
lication of newspaper, under the above
caption, reviving in name at least, one of the
old papers published at Columbia.
Any one who has within the last three
months, read the editorial columns Of the
.Phonir, must have been struck by the vigor
and the uncompromisingly honest and hon
orable tone of the articles therein published,
and had begun to hope that South Carolina
had at least one faithful and true sentinel in
the very camp of her enemies. who was dcs-
tined to lift her if by herculean, persistent
and consistent blows, it could be accomplish
ed, out of the miry slums, into which her car
case, polluted and torn by the vampire fangs
of her destroyers, had been dragged. Dis
appointed in the Phenir, Col. Thomas has
re-opened fire from his own batteries, and
we urge upon all friends Of freedom ofspecch
and the press, to fly to the aid of the new
enterprise, and give Col. Thomas such fnan-
cial help as will enable him to keep up the
war against the thieves, which he has ably
inaupurated.

The Reign Of Corruption.

To no part, at least, of this country, can
the eve turn, without resting upon corrup-
tion Of some character. That charges OF
corruption, unfoundcd and msusta'ncd,
have been made, is undcniabic, but TINS
doos not alter the truth Of the general pro-
position.
In national politics, the great Custom
House frauds in New York now being un-
earthed, afford sample as affects the coun-
try at large. The present State Govern
ment of nearly every Southern State in the
Union, under carpet bag rule, furnishes
proof of corruption in State politics, and
the Tammany frauds Of New York afford
evidence of the same in city or municipal
politics.
The alacrity with which persons contract
debts and shield themselves behind the pro-
visions of the law to prevent payment, fur
nishes proof Of the corruption rcgnant IN
social life.
The not unfrequent cases Of gross moral
crime and sinabeing pcrpetratcd by profess
ing christians and ministers of the Gospel,
together with the growing Indifference to
religion, as manifested by persons of both
sexes and colors, and all ages, indicate a
process of corruption in the Church.
Besides the bare fact of the existence OF
corruption, there are many unmistakable
proofs Of its onward march, of an increasing
lenicncy in judging a crime, lazity ofmorals
and general closing of eyes and stopping
of ears, refusal to see or hear, the proofs
of frightful decay and corruption IN the
political, social and moral world.
These facts being admitted, the mind ma
turally seeks to know how this condition OF
things will end-where and when.
Manifestly, no amelioration of condition
will be experienced in the political arena,
until the social body is purified, and equally
clearly will it be impossible that this should
occur without great revolution in the re-
lgious world; for behind politics is society
and behind society, its foundation stone, is
religion.
This being true, what serious and SOL
emn duty lies before every professor Of re-
ligion ? Without purity there, it is vain to
look elsewhere for it.
A terrible responsibility rests upon socie-
ty. Purify the fountain head Pure water
never runs from polluted source. "a cor
rupt tree cannot bring forth good fruit"

Judge Melton has so evenly welded the scep-

his services in that particular have been con-
tinucd to as. Although comparatively
young man, Judge Melton has not failed to

THE PROSPECTS OF WAR BETWEEN
AMERICA AND ENGLAND Washington,
Feb. 5.-The New York dulles all discuss
the Washington treaty troubles as serious
matter.
The Herald says: OF one stern fact the
English government and people may rest
we'll assured that dcp!orable war must al
most inevitably be the consequence of an
evasion of an honorable settlement of the
differences between the two nations under
the tribunal which they themselves selected.
If the action of that tribunal makes Great
Britain liable for the loss of our commerce
and the prolongation Of the civil war the
damages awarded therefor must be paid
peacefully or they will be collected at the
point Of the bayonet.
