More on the Same Subject.

We enquired in our last issue very
pertinently, why do not owners of lots
in and around Orangeburg, erect neat
and cheap cottages which could be
rented at moderate rates. Our enquiry
and suggestion have met with interest
and favor on tho part of those who
would be the occupants of the proposed
homes. On tic new street there are
many most desirable lots. Why do no.
the owners of these act upon our sug
gestion.
Cottages Of four rooms, can be erected
for little or nothing The weather.
boarding need not be planed Rough
boards white washed make just as pretty
an exterior, as plnned boards and paint
and is of course immeasurably cheap per
The convenience of large and increas
ing, class Of our sory best citizens, and
tho great Improvement it will be to our
pretty and growing Town arc the con.
siderativns, which urge us to press this
subject.
We nre happy to state that our sus
gestion has been caught up by GONE lot
owners. No less than four suaEl neat
residences are about to be erected.
The ncw street lies beautifully open
to view from the railroad, and built ur.
along Its line with pretty homes. would
be charming and picturesque picture
to the traveller on the high road through
the State.
Build, build, build It is the best
investment that could be made.

1t seems that the objection to the law

of certain shoall merchants in the
country, of including Ghiaey, which is

very Arcadian, and is blissful union
of the orgies of Pan and Bacchus, but
1t certainly is not legal However
stimulating to the fertile brain, whiskey
may be, 1T is very poor stimulating
fertilizer to the soil, and while it will
soon send men to grass" is very poor
pasturage for stock
This practice is simply an abuse and
violation of the law, and cannot be
urged as an objection to it provisions
One of these changes proposed to the
law, is to give the owner of the md a
preferred Ii ed on the crop OF the tenant
for the rent 1t is far easier for the
small farmer, just making his farm"
to get land than supplies And like
wise it is easier for the landlord TO col

get remuneration for his advances.
The one is upon the ground and near

aud unable to know his man or watch

TO THE MEMORY OF MISS ANNIE ANDRUs AGED 18.
Spring with Its promise, and its tender sky,
It's germ of all things fair;
Spring with its sod fast purpling into bloom,
The pathos in its air.
Spring which from clay tile sweetest flowers
doth call,
Hath turned one flower to clay.
And to our eyes a heavy %funercal pail,
Hides the soft light of day.
She was 50 fair. all hearts cry out Alas.
That Death should choose such prey.
The few brief summers of her life to end
Like some unfinished lay"
She was so good and guileless? God knows best.
Perchance her gentle life,
So full of truth and loneliness was spared
Some hours conquering strife.
We say "Thy will be DOME but yet some heart
ClamOrs in fierceSt pain,
"SwGet eyes we loved, ah nevermOre thy light
VIII gladden. us again."
All nevermore7 unless a cruel dream
Shall mock us with her face,
Weep, Weep, who stretch oub dreaming arms to
hold
The dead ones in their place.
Weep we, but not for her the sanity soul,
Gods Lilies OH her breast,
She stands beside the River where its tide
LUlls angels to their rest.
No tears, no pain, NJ grief, but yet methinks
within her bliSSful eyes,
There fingers yet some shadow of earth's tears
Mixed with her rapt surprise.
Some shadow of Loves yearning and regret,
Which fain would snatch hen back.
From the Immortal shore where all is won,
To tread LIES bitter track.
Oh help lis God tn pierce the thick dark veil
Which hides thy tenderness!
To measure Time against Eternities
And still Thy dealings bless.
But yet we cry " alas, alas!" for us
Who love, and lose so much,
Still we remember what Thy promise says
my kingdom is of SUCH"

why Endure What is Durable s-"What

verb but Indigestion can be cured, and there
fore it Is the merest stupidity to endure it. Dys-
peptics have certainly q right to continue dys-
pepttes to the end of their days if they choose,
but as it is not supposed that any rational being
prefers physical torment to ease and health, the
probability is that if all sufferers from indiges-

remedy for their complaint existed, they wonld
with one accord resort to it. We most emphat-
ically declare that such a remedy does exist,

tiers. TIL record of its success extends over a
period Of more than twenty years, and it is fear
lessly alleged that during the whole of that
time 1t has never failed to afford permanent re-
lief in any disorder or arrangement of the stom-
ach that was not organic, malignant, and incur
able. The testimonials that go to establish this
important fact can be counted by the thousand.
Stomach complaints that had been aggravated
by a total disregard OF all dietary rules, and in

A REMARKABLE DoG,-A sea captain
just arrived in this port from New Or

whom he accredits one of the most re.
markable exploits in canine intelligence.
The dog was the property of the first
mate, and was early noted for extraOr-
binary sagacity. When the sailOrstO O

dog Immediately seized the end and ran
the length of the deck with it., as if
lending a hand" to get the officers or
der executed. A planter took q fancy
to the dog, and prevailed on the first
mate to present the animal to him. He
carried it along 600 miles up the Missis-
slppl river, and endeGVored to show the
setter every kindness. But one night
the dog escaped, and, along the river
bank, leaped a boat and Wastowed back
to New Orleans. But the ship hadsailed,
ana a schooner captain, into whose
nalds the setter fell, took it with him
to New York. The shipfrOm whieI1the
dog was taken was living on the ether

marvel comes ia. The doe while look

OF the ship on the other side. After q
few moments it leaped overheard, SWAN
to it's old home, and was taken aboard
by the delighted sailors.
The mate was so Peioiced to have his
dog again that he declared that no half
q dozen Southern planters could induce
him to part with it. The setter. whose
wonderful instinct had brought it back
to its old master, is Snow more than ever
the pet OF the crew. Some people may
disbelieVe this story; nevertheless, the
captain and the first mate vouch for
its accuracy, which is more than the re-
porter cares to do.-Esan Francisco
