II is gratifying to- us to inform the public
! that DIR. l.. y. q. Wishart's PINE Tree Tar
Cordial, for Throat and Lung Diseases, has
gained an enviai.o reputation from the At
lantic to the Pacific coNst, and from thence to
some of the first families OF Europe, not thro'
the press alone, but by persons throughout the
States actually benefited and cured at his
office. While he publishes less. so say our ro-
porters, he is unable to supply the demand. 1t
gains and holds its reputation
First. Not by stopping cough, but by loos-
ening and assisting nature to throw of the
unhealthy matter collected about the throat
and bronchial tubes, aohich causes irritation.
Second. IL removes the cause Of irritation
(Which produces cough of the mucous men,
brane and bronchial tubes, assists the lungs
to act and throw of the unhealthy secretions,
and puTifles the blood. ..eFf'
Third. 1t is free from squills, lobelia, ipecac
and opium of which most throat and lung
remedies are composed, which allay cougl,
only, and disorganize the stomach. 1t has u
soothing effect on the stomach, acts on the
liver and kidneys, and Emphatic and nervous
regions, thus Reaching to every part of the
system, and inits inyigOrating and purifying
effects it has gained u reputation which It
must hold above all others in the market. q

route. Considerable activity ap.
pears to exist at several points
along the line, even after the
freight Of fertilizers was all deliy-
cred; and some idea Of the amount
Of this may be formed from the
fact of more than 1000 tons be-
ing taken to The one point of
Anderson. Tho line Of telegraph
owned by thu road is Of great
interest, and to those Of its custo-
mers, and an incstimable advan-
tage to all in the peculiar circum-
stances which render quick and
prompt transmission Of intelli-
gence desirable and gratifying.
Several years ago, when the
original stockholders were indu-
ccd to sell out, the ostensible pur-
pose Of the purchase WAS to place
the road in the hands Of aclive,en-
terprising and experienced rail
road men CT ample means, with
the expectation of its immediate
improvement and thorough reno
valion. We were to have two
trains q day run from Columbia
to CfrecnviIlc; frcights were to be
reduced, so as to give an impulse
to agricultural productions. along
/ the road, and thus advance tho
Industrial prosperity of all the up
per Counties, increase the trade
Of Columbia and Charleston, and
incidentally prove beneficial to
the entire State. The prospect
Thus held out was very a!luring
and deceived some Of our most
sagacious and practical citizens,
among them NOTABLY the late Ia
mented Judge Orr. Whatever
might have been the worthy OBJ
jccts Of some Of the parties who
originally abetted the enterprise,
the road finally fell into the hands
Of ! ring, the only desire Of which
seemed to be to swindIe the State
out of it's stock and cucumber the
road with spurious bonds. They
ran it until, in their hands, it was
no longer worth running, and
then disposed fit to the South
Carolina Railroad Company. Un.
der its favorable auspices and the
vigorous management Of Col.
Dodamead. it has shaken off the
shackles which have heretofore
crippled its operations, and is now
in fair way to prove handsome
and brilliant success, and to an
swer the business purposes Of the
people, for which it was primarily
inteuded.-Phqair.
