A VrrERAN DEALER.-Some days
since it was our pleasure to visit the
extensive establishment of Mr.. Asher
Palmer. the veteran Stove and Tin deal
er of Columbia, and we were surprised
at his immense stock and its great va
rietv. Ills cooking and heating stoves
and gratis are of the best makers, and
are not only useful but ornamental.
One ned not 20 farther than Palmers
to get suited either in style or price, Tor
bis stock is unusually large and com
plete. We. noticed, too. some OF the
handsomest chimney pieces we have
seen, for nothing equal to them has ever
before been exhibited in Columbia.
These are so costly that of course only
parlor could be furnished with one,
and that would be sufficient to give
eharactrr to the house which perhaps.
no other ornamentation could lmpart.
Palmer certainly has splendid STOCK
and then lie has two of the best men IN
the country to do the honors and wait
on Gust, :mers, we allude to Capt. Press
Brown md Mr.. Pollock. Be sure and
visit Palmer while in Columbia.

DEDl ;ATIoN.-It was our pleasure,
in company with Uncle Dick Chap
man, to attend the dedicatory services
on Sunday of Lebanon Church, new
edifice erected by the Methodist congrc..
cation IF the Chinquepin section OF
this County. The day was love
II, oni,r one, and the congregation
LARGE anl attentive. The Rev. I. G:
Herbert preached an interesting and
impressive dedicatory sermon, and after
the church was turned over in dne
form bv Messrs. McGraw, Buzhardt
and Bats, and solenlnly dedicated, the
Lords Supper was administered to a
large number of communicates. Alter
this q Subscription of 5000 was raised
to finish the church. The amount ask
ed ior WIS 800, and it was pleasant to
see the }iberality displayed. for we con-
slider il fair and generous contrlbu,
ton for that society. Then followed
an intermission, and an elegant and
sumptuons dinner spread on the russell
colored Sward, over and around which
Uncle Dick spread himself in his usual
felicitors style, and of course it is unne-
cessary TO say that we indulged also IN
happy manner. Our eating friend
H. II. f.. was there. In the afternoon
GOOD old Uncle Mark Boyd gave us
feeling discourse, then the benedictlon
was pronounced and the congregation
departed 10 their several homes.

SPECIFIC FOR D1PTHERIA.-Any
remedy for this dreadful scourge will
he received with interest, and we pub
l;sh the following, with the hope that it
may be specific indeed:
The Italian journals publish q letter
from Dr.. Galligari, describing the re-
markahla success which has attended
his treatment of diptheria with phenic
acid. He relates the losses he formerly
experienced among his patients when
treating them with hydrochloric acid'
and obs rves that this cauterlzatlon can
NO NOR. eradicate the morbid principle
than tearing the leaves off the plant
will destroy the rest. He now simply
uses a gargle of picnic acid and dis
titled wafer, with external applications
of new :iannel, the food and drink to be
taken cold. After the adoption of this
treatment, DR.. Galligari lost but one
patient ont of fifty-eight. He requested
the Italian journals to publish the dis
coyery: >,
The treatment consists in thoroughly
swab5ing the back Of the mouth and
throat with a wash made thus: ''Tablc
salt, two drachms; black pepper, golden
seal, nitrate of potash, alum, one
drachm each. Mix and pulverize, put
it into z tea-cup, which half fill with
boiling water, stir we'll, and then fill up
With god vinegar. Use every half
hour, QUE, two and four hours as recov-
erv progresses. The patient may swal-
low lille each time. Apply an ounce
each Of spirits of tu1pentlne, suet and
acoua ammonia, mixed, to the whole Of
the threat, and to the breastbone, every
four hours, keeping Hannelt to the part" !"
