DEATH OF AN OLD CITIzES.-CaptHin
l. NJ. Co1etter died at his residence in
this city last evening, about 8 o'clock. in
the fifty-fiith year Of his age. He was
ben in Nova Scotia. in the year 1918,
but came to Charleston before he had
reached tho years OF manhood. He fol-
lowed seafaring life, and by devotion
to duty soon attained the command OF q
schooner plying between this port and
st. Augustine, Fla. It was out OF this
communication between Charleston and
Florida, f1rss established by him, that
grew the hourishiDg commerce which il
now carried on by steamers. When the
war with Mexico broke out, his schooner,
the Stephen and Francis, was chartered
by the Government, and WAS engaged
un,ler his charge in transporting stores
and supplies between New Orleans md
Galveston. He was subsequently, upon
the loss of his vessel, placed in charge Of
Government transport, which he COM
manded until the termination of hostili-
ties. He then returned to Charleston,
and at once set about reViving the trade
between Charleston and Florida. With
this otj cot, he built the steamer Florida.
aud subsequently the Carolina aud Ever
glade, oil of which he in turn com-
manded. This was the first steam COM
munica!ion between Charleston and st.
Augustine, and Under his well directed
efforts the commerce and travel bet, tween
the two ports grew to considerable pro-
portions. When the Confederate war
broke out, ne fitted up the privateer jeff
Davis ut this port. and having success.
fully run the blockade, was the first to
lily the Confederate flag III foreign
waters. After brilliant and successful
cruise, the jeff. Davis was wrecked on
the St. Augustine bar, aud Captain Cox

to Charleston. He. was next sent to
Europe to purchase the steamer Anto

blockade repeatedly. He was after.

st.te Lunss:s a.y;ai..

Columbia, South Carolina, is probably
one Of the best managed institutions, so
far as its immediate officers arc con-
oerned, in the country. The many great
improvements and doonvenienoes rect ntly
added and adopted. through the instru-
mentality of Dr.. J. F. Ensor, its indie.
fatigable perintendent, by and with
the consent of it's Board Of Regents, are
worthy Of the highest commendation aud
praise. Tho institution now numbers be-
tween 200 and 800 patients, and their COM
fort in every particular is the constant
study and supervision of The eSuperintend-
ent and his efficient assistant, DR.. Sloan.
The fatherly control, kind care aud bene-
fetal influence is readily to be seen in O
walk with them through its different
wards. Every modern appliance has
been recently introduced; new heating
and cooking apparatus; elevators from the
kitchen to tho different wards, by which
the patients OF each ward have their
meals served to themselves, without be.
ing compelled to leave tho floor; hot and
cold baths on the floor of each ward, aud
tue entire Institution refurnished
throughout in every necessary particular;
the patients also separated and classad
according to social station. A new and Sc
parate chapel building has been added !;
and it is really pleasant and wonderful to
see the great happiness expressed SO
manlfestly on each countenance in re-
cognition Of familiar face, whom all re-
collect as source OF pleasure in former
contributions OF musical assistance, and
OF the ready and willing yielding to that
kind Influence when others have failed
Dir. Ensor is the man for the position; /;
copsiderate to degree. always ready to
adopt whatever may be necessary for the
good Of those under his charge and Of
the institute; also, invariably using the
utmost eoonomy-if necessary. putting
his own shoulder to the wheel, even Civ.
ing his personal supervision to outdoor
manual labor. All this We know, for we
have seen 1t. J.T. ".

9 THE HERALD ON CEsAn1sM. The New
York Herald thinks there is something in
the tendency OF Grant to Cn n,arism. It
concludes long article thus:
The spirit which made Jefferson but
more especially jackson and Lincoln
so pnissant, was only form of Cee sarism
which is making itself power in our
politics. In those days people were not
80 susceptible to it's influence as now.
Strange things have occurred in Ame-
RIGA; the public tone hns become lower
ed; Congressman have grown rich from
bonds and subsidies which they voted
out OF the Treasury; O company OF
thieves have held New York under their
hands and robbedit of millions; forgery
and perjury have become political &C.
complishments. and seats in the Senate
are bought with money, rs the purple oi
the Ceesars was bought when the Ptmto.
rian Guards we're in power. We have
no Prptorian Guards, it is true; but the
men Of whom Mr.. Colfax may be re.
garded as the most prominent example
the Pr:o.orian Guards of the Republican
party-have made CD sarism possible in
our time. and have compelled us to open
an issue with the people which has moi
had its parallel in gravity since the
foundation OF the Government.

WHY TIE SoUrH REMAISS PooR-The
great problem Of political economy for

Scctlonalism has almost been our ruin
we do not cherish it. We wish to SEQ
the people North and South prospecting,
but we can see no prosperity for the
Sout' until We learn to produce our
food, manufacture our staples and give
employment TO our mechanics. We want
factories OF every kind, but these facto-
ries must have patronage, and, like
charity, this patronage must begin at
home. We remain poor, because we
must have everything from the North.
We plough our crops with Northern.

Northern-made axes, dress our lumber
with Northern made planes, drivs onr
Northern nails with Northern made

IMPORTANCE OF HEALTHY Blood
Every drop OF blood that circulatcs
through the veins evt ntually becomes a
solid particle OF the body. Flesh, bone
and muscle are merely solidified blood,
and upon the quality Of the blood de-
pends the condition Of the whole physi.
cal system. Unless the liquid material
by which the human substance is re.
newed and sustained is pure and nutri.
tious, it is impossible that the body can
bo healthy and strong. One of the
most important properties OF Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters is that Of improving
tho condition Of the vital fluid when in.
fected or impoverished. Acting directly
and powerfully upon the stomach in
which the manufacture Of the blood is
commenced, and upon tho livor, which
sccretes n fluid next in Importance TO the
stream Of life itself, this powerful vcgc-

indirect influence upon the circulation.
