Pain Killer,

There can be no necessity at this late
day, for the press TO speak in commcndu-
tory terms of this remarkable medicine,
in order to poromote its sale; for it is u
medicine that is known and appreciated
the wide world through. When ever we
speak of the Pain Killer, as in the pres
ent instance, VIC do so in behalf of the
afflicted, rather than with the view Of
advancing the interest of its proprietors.
For various diseases, such as rheumatism,
cholera, cholera -morbus, burns sprains,
bruises, and so on to the end of the cata-
logue, we are convinced that there is no
remedy before the people equal to Davis
Vegetable Pain Killer" and we know
that thousands upon thousands entertain
the same belief. Certainly we cannot
refer to the history ofany medicine which
equals that of the Pain Killer. 1t was
introduced in lS40, and from that time to
this its sale, both at home and abroad,
has constantly and rapidly increased, and
we rejoice at the high reputation it has
achieved, because this reputation shows
that is has been the means of relieving a
vast amount Of human suffering. We
hope the present proprietors of Davis
Vegetable Pain Killer" will long live to
enjoy the prosperity which they have so
fairly won.

The' Assessment for 1873.

hHueW assessment of the real and per-
so"Ii property Of the state will be made
this year. Our county auditor gives the
proper notice to property owners in an
other column. We urge upon our peo-
pic the Importance of making prompt
and full returns. Especially should they
be careful to bound their lands properly.
If this were generally done a large
amount ofland which has always escaped
taxation would be discovered. We think
our auditor sincerely desires te get up a
Correct duplicate this fall. He can do So
if he is aided by the well disposed citi-
zcnS.

EPIDEMICS.

There is longer room to doubt that the
cholera will spread widely through the
country. Memphis and Nashville have
been severely scourged and other cities
acknowledge the presence of the epidem-
ic. Yellow fever also exist in the West
Indies and Brazil. Some case have been
noted in Brooklyn. 1t certainly behoves
us to be on our guard. In regard to
cholera the concurrent testimony of the
ablest physicians in all parts of the coun-
try is fairly represented by the following
statement oft Executive Committee of
the American Public Health Association,
which may serve to reassure the public
From being the most feared and des-
tructive pestilence, cholera has become
entirely submissive to sanitary measures
ofprerention, and can now be controlled
with such certainty and completeness as
to prevent its ravages as an epidemic.
Believing, therefore, that the people of
the United States will wisely apply the
suggestions which are given,in this mem
orandnm, the undersigned committee
presents them for the purpose of hasten
ing and making sure the most extensive,
thorough. and speedy control Of this des-
troyer.
The memorandum presented gives the
following general directions, which every
citizen should consider carefully:
Cleansing and purify, skilful disinfec-
ton, temperate habits, and wholesome
diet with pure water and fresh air are
the trusted and cure means of health and
security in all places and for all classes of
people when exposed 20 the causes of
cholera. The watchword against this des.
tructive enemy should be-remove. the
local causes that favor the propagation Of
cholera, ant. when eyerit appears, let its
germs be quickly stamped out by power
full disinfectants, and. special cleansing.
The advantages of the disiniectants
spoken Of in this report cannot be too
highly commended, and the following
formula is given for preparing them:
Eight or ten lbs. Of sulphate Of iron
(copperas) dissolved in or 6 gallons of
water, with half a pint Of crude oarbolic
acid added TO the solution. and briskly
stirred, makes the cheapest and best dis

,Ehs Largest Bona Eide: Circulation
Uneonstitutionality of the Tax Sales.

A case of considerable Importance has
Just been decided in the Third Judicial
Circuit, by Judge John T. Green, in
which the recent act Of the Legislature
TO provide summary" mode for
purchasers of lands at tax "sales being
put into possession" t" is declared uncon-
'stitutional and void. The circumstances
of the case, as given by the Charles
ton Necs, are as follows: Certain lands
of Mrs. Kate Mcmillan and others were
sod for taxes in June, 1872, under the
act of 1872. and we're purchased by
Louis Jacobs. The first owners of the
property, through their attorney, S. W.
Maurice, Esq, made application to
Judge Green for prohibition TO restrain
the sheriff from proceeding under the
act Atempoary injunction was granted,
which, after argument, was made per-
petual aud absolute by formal decision.
The argument Of Mr.. Maurice was
very exhaustive and complete. His
main points were as follows: That the
act of 1872, under which the sale was
male, is "bill for raising revenue"
aud originated in the Senate instead Of
the House of Representatives, as rcquir-
cd by the Constitution Of the State.
That the act is unconstitutional, because
it relates to more than one subject, and
thaE the subjects are not expressed IN
the title, That the effect Of fthe act of
1873, as well as that oflS72, is to deprive
the citizen Of his property without the
Judgement Of his peers or the law OF the
Iand. That the act Of 1872 undertakes.
upon its face, to amend arepealed statute.
That the same act, upon its face, author
ICES only the sale of forfeited lands,
whereas the land was sold as delinquent
land and hence the sale was void for
want of authority. The point was also
made taat tax deed, if for delinquent
lands, must be sealed with the private
seal of the officer who executes it. If for
forfeited lands, the title to which is in
the Government, then it must be in the
form, andipossessed ofthe characteristics,
Of a grant under the great seal Of the
STATE, signed by the Governor and
countersigncd by the Secretary of State.
Other grounds were taken in the argu'
mcnt of the counsel, but the court, with
ont entering upon the consideration of
these, granted the injunction, upon the
broad nrincipln laid down in tho Seatv
Constitution, tarticle ], section l4,)
"that no person shall be arrested, i'm
prisored, dcspoiled or dspessessed Of
his property, immunities or privileges,
put out of the protection Of the law, cx'
lied or deprived of his life, liberty or
estate. but by the judgement Of his peers
or The law of the land"

Sale OF Forfeited Lands.

The comptroller general has decided
that fortified lands cannot be sold at the
,rcasurer's sales for a less amount than
Tie penalties and taxes The sale of 1872
Is held to have been a special sale, at
which they could be sold to the highest
bidder. As many sales were made at the

much less than the taxes and costs the
question as to their legality is now raised.
We cannot sec how the auditor can de-
