BUTTERMILK APROcIOTER OF LON

BUTTERMILK A PROMOTER OF LONG
LIFE.-A French savant recently read
a paper before the French Academy,
in which he adve1ted to the use Of but
ternilk as a promoter Of longevity.
He said: Life exists only in combus-
ton, but the combustion which occurs
in our bodies, like that which takes
place in our chimney leaves detritus
which is fatal to life. 10 remove this
we would administer lactie acid with
ordinary food. This acid is known to
possess the power of removing Or de-
stroying the incrustations which form
OF. the arteries, cOrtillages, and valves
of the heart. AS buttermilk abounds
in this acid, and is, moreover, an agree
able kind of food, its habitual use, it
is urged. will free the system from
these causes, which inevitably cause
death between the seventy-fifth and
year.

SollE One TO LovE.-Perhaps one
OF the most positive proof, that we
have Of the souls independence Of the
body, is our great need Of love and of
something to love. Were we mere
animals, creatures doomed to perish
after Il few brief years of life in this
world, that which contents the brute
would also content us. TO cat and
sleep well, to have an easy time of it,
would bc well enough. AS it is, we
may have all these things and health
to enjoy them, and yet be utterly
wretcIlcd. Neither can mental food
satisfy us, "somc one to love" is our
hearts cry. When the atmosphere Of
tenderness is about us we rejoice {;
when people are harsh or unkind, we
suffer. We begin life, wishing to love
all people. and believing that they
love us. Experience harilens us. Our
dear ones grow fewer; bnt, as long as
reason lasts, we must love some one,
we must at least imagine that some
one loves us. The parents, sisters and
brothers, that dearest friend whom we
promise to love and cherish until deat!.
parts Us, these come into omr lives
and fili them up. Afterward come the
little children, fi;ail, helpless babies,
who need cur care 50 much; and
friends to whom we are not kin, yet
who grow dear to us. Some have
many loved ones, and some but one.
God helps those who have none,
though they are generally to blame
for their enpty-heartedness; for kind
ness will win love. They are always
wretched, and they often show their
craving for something to love by cher
ishing some dumb animal-a dog, a
kitten, parrot, perhaps, OH which
they lavish carresses which, better
spent, would have bound some human
heart to theirs. Pride, or morbid
may have been at the
bottom of their loneliness, and these
pets Of theirs fill the aching VOID a
little. Some one to love! 1t is the
cry Of the human soul, the note to
which every heart responds; the bond
which will bind us all together in that
other world where mOurners shall be
comfOrtcd and Love shall reign fol-
ever.

acid phosphate to yield 4 ton Of de-
composed phosphate of lime would cost
one hundred and forty dollars. In
making these calculations some value
Of articles may appear to be- slightly
more than the price asked, but the
purchaser must bear in mind that the
figures assumed by the Inspector are
elastic and must be thus considered ;
they are simply the average express
sion Of comparative value OF all fer
tilizcrs, and rs some fall below, some
must rise above the mark"
The Inspector states that the value
Of fertilizers has increased 20 per
cent. since the passage Of the Iuspec-
ton law, and competition will still
further increase the per- centage. Our
native companies sold larger quanti-
ties last Winter than ever before, and
the consumption has very generally
increased at home and abroad. The
use Of fertilizers has increased the
area Of cotton production, and in this
way, it is Supposed, has added 10000
bales to the cotton crop, and perhaps
i similar amount by their general
use-thc whole representing an addi-
lion OF S40,O00,000 to the commerce
Of the county. The Inspector cor
rects, as entirely without foundation,
the erroneous impl cssion that the use
of fertilizers has caused the prevalence
of malarial fever during the past year
in two of the upper Counties Of the
State, or the growth Of the cater
pi!lcr.

THE WEEK OF PRAYER. - In spite
Of the inclement weather Of the past
week, very interesting religious excr-
ciscs were held in the Presbyterian
and Methodist churches, in which the
various congregations united, and
very excellent discourses were deliv-
cred by the Rev. W. T. Capers, Rev.
r. n. Pratt, and the Rev. J. L. Mar
tin. We had the pleasure on Sunday
night of hearing a very able and i'm.
pressive discourse delivered by the
latter, to q large congregation in the
Methodist church, on the universal
extension and final triumph of Christ's
which commanded very
marked attention and interest.

TIE PAYMENT OF TAXES.

The County ;Treasurors Office has
been throrgcd since its opcding on
Friday Hast by an eager crowd,
claiminsthe privilege Of paying their
taxes. So lar it has been o matter of
impossibiIity to get in without stand
ing seige at the door, and being de-
layed an hour Or more. With many
others VIC have concluded to bide
our time, and wait our opportunity.
This is the last day bcforo the penalty
attaches, but as it has been q matter
of impossibility to pay, and hence no
default on the pant of the taxpayer,
we suppose the penalty cannot be cx-
acted. (The time has been extended.
Sec advcrtisemcnt)
No County Checks are received in
payment of taxes. The County funds
are to be held for the payment Of
tho current expenses. There is q bill
now pending for the payment of the
past Indebtedness Of the County, and
we suppose all past Gains will be
paid out Of the next levy.

by mandamus. The proper remedy
Of the plaintiff was an action of debt

South Carolina as the Home of the
-. Immigrant.

The Uaion-Hernld publishes letter
written by Dr.. J. f. Euser, sqpcrin'
tsndcnt Of the Lunatic Asylam, to a
friend, and setting forth the advan,
tages which the State offers to the
immigrant. lIo candidIy admits
the evils which have resulted from
high taxation, and official corruption,
but regards the late action Of the
Gcnclal Assembly in reducing the
public debt as an earnest of further
reforms. The great need of the
State is an honest, cnterprisiDg, in
tclligent ard Industrious population.
and with these it will become the
richest and fairest spot on earth.
Above all things tho Doctor advises
his friends to eschew office holding.
He says:
.Thc public service has become so
corrupt all over the country that it is
almost impossible for man to serve
the State and maintain an unblemish-
cd character. Moreover, if strict hon
esty be observed officeholding is the
most Improbable business a man can
possibly engage in. My own expe-
riencc, at least, shows that to bo the
fact. Three years and a half ago |
accepted office under the State gov
ernmcnt. At that time had consid-
cradle property, and owed no man a
dollar To-day am ten thousand
dollars in debt. my property is under
mortgage, and I do not own a dollars
worth Of property Of any Kind that
I did not own when l came into
office. The tax books will show that
| really own less, and know I have
lived AS economically az was consis-
tent with the dignity Of my position.
1t is true there arc others who have
been more fortunate. Perhaps they
are better managers than [ am. But
be that as it may, the South does
not need officcseekers. 1t needs hon
esty, industry, enterprise and capit..l );
and any man who will come here
armed with any or all Of these quail.
fca!ions, will find bis labors as richly
rewarded here as in any other part oil
the country, and as pleasant q homo

AN INJUNCTION was granted BY
Judge Cooke in Columbia on Thurs
day last, to restrain the Treasures
from receiving certificates of indebt.
edness in payment Of the State taxes
and made returnable on the 1911,
inst. This day is subsequent to that
when the penalty Tor non.paymcnt
attaches, and hence the holders OF
these certificates arc placed in an un.
pleasant dilemma. Most Of them
have no other money to pay with
and the Treasurcrs can give no re.
lief. There arc s225,OO0 of these
certificates outstanding.
Since writing the above we sec that
Judge Cooke, on Saturday last, re-
scinded the order granting the tenn
porary injunction upon various
grounds which arc thus stated:
"Iu view Of the fact that this order
must work great hardship, in the
meanwhile, to INNOCENT Iolders of
certificates who ore required to meet
their obligations as tax payers before
the time fixed for the hearing. | have
taken occasion to give 10 the case the
most careful and thorough considcra-
tion of which | am capable, and have
reached the conclusion that the order
Of injunction was improvidently
granted and should at once be rescind-
ed, upon my own motion, on the sim
gle ground that the complaint does
not state facts sufficient to constitute
q cause Of action in this plaintiff. No
injury has accrued to the plaintiff
because Of the acts complained Of;
nor can injury be sustained by him
Of such special and peculiar charac-
ter as to cntitle him to bring the suit
