The Centennial of 1876.

This highly favored country is about to cele-
brate its hundredth birthday. Under its favored
privileges, its citizens have been happy; wor-
shipping God according to the dictates of their
own consciences; pursuing their chosen avoca-
tionf unmolested; growing rich and prosperous.
Some have attained the most exalted positions
from the smallest beginnings. This is particu-
larly applicable to DIR. TUFTS LIVER PILLS. Ten
years ago they had but a limited local reputa-
ton, but in this time, aided by scientific research
and conscientious business direction, they have
attained such a celebrity that there is not 4
country on the globe that they are not known
and used. Wherever disease prevails, especially
such as result from torpid liver, dyspepsia, cos
tlveness, sick headache. fever and ague, and they
are eager ly sought for. Dec. 23-2t

1t is the aim of the Board Of Commits.
sioners to make it a thorough Exposition
of the Agricultural and Mechanical Pro
ducts of the Southern States, Mexico and
Central America, but it will be open tc
competitors througout the country, and the
general premium list will embrace all ar
ticles comprehended in the general design
of an Agricultural and Industrial Exposi
ton, including special premiums for strictly
Southern products.
The premium list, which is now in course
of publication, will be on a liberal scale,
and the rules will provide for a just and
impartial system of awards, by competent
and disinterested jurors.
The Fair Grounds are generally conced.
ed to be the handsomest in the United
States, comprising l20 acres, within fifteen
minutes ride by street cars from the center
of the city. The grounds are shaded by q
a beautiful grove of live oaks, and the
buildings, which are of recent construction
are amply sufficient to meet all the neces'
sites of the most extensive exhibition.
The Racing Course, which is used by the
Louisiana Jockey Club at all its meetings
is justly famous througout the country, and
the Accommodations for stock are unsur.
passed.
1t is the first time that such an enterprise
has been inaugurated at the South, and
being held at a time when the city of New
Orleans is thronged with thousands of Wis
itors to participate in the festivities Of the
Carnival, it affords unusual inducements
to exhibitors from every section of the
country.
The Commissioners earnestly appeal to
the people of the Southern States to lend
their aid and encouragement to the Expo
%sition, and to make it in all respects a com
plete exhibition of Southern predictions
and it is hoped that manufacturers, pro-
ducers and others, in every section of the
country, will Participate.
Ample arrangements have been perfect
ed for the transportation of goods and Wis
itors from every section at reduced rates.

Merry Christmas.

EPrecious words with what sweet music,
On each ear their cadence falls,
Gentle tones they come to whisper
Priceless love and peace to all.
Oh | with glowing hearts we hear them,
Never weary of the strain,
Still they shed their genial sunshine,
Der our heart of hearts again.
How they WOO lis back to childhood,
Through the halls of memory bright,
Till each fancy dream is blended
Into wisdom's sacred light.
Earth's gay pleasures only linger,
| Like a silver cloud to-day,
But the Christmas promise brings us
Joys that never fade away.
Though the shadows often deepen
Der the path we've daily trod,
Every Christmas milestone brings us
Nearer, nearer unto God.
Through the gloom our hallowed beacon
Sheds a radiant light divine,
Saviour, guide us in thy mercy,
Mould us worthy to be Thine.
Merry Christmas! joyous greeting,
May thy holy anthems ring,
Till our melody is blended
With the song that angels sing.
Then with sweet surprise we mingle
With the undefled above,
Sparkling in celestial glory,
Mid the gems of light and love.

A Card from Maj. J. L. White.

Editor Press and Banner:
Please allow ME space in your columns
to express and return my thanks to my
friends for their many manifestations of
sympathy and kindness to me during
my Imprisonment. 1t certainly was a
comfort and consolation to receive SO
many substantial demonstrations and
assurances of your confidence, esteem
and regard. Memory will often bear
me back to your acts of generosity and
kinduessr and / trust yonr interest in
my behalf will meet with the approx
ing smiles of heaven. 10 each and all
of you l say, may you never know trOu-
ble-may your lots be cast in pleasant
places, and happiness your hand-maid,
heaven your reward.
A few words to the public. I advo-
cate law, order, peace, quiet, good NOR
ais and good manners, and hope to see
such things once more prevailing in old
Abbeville. Fora time have been cut
off from the endearments of home and
family, and from the association of
faithful, loving friends and neighbors.
but have nothing to apologize for-as I
did what I conceived to be my duty:
and venture to say, under the same
circumstances, there is not a gentleman
in the country with proper feelings of
respect for himself and family, but what
would have acted US 1 did. God has i'm
planted within me that principle to de-
tend and protect my home and loved
ones, and with his help, expect to do
it, as long as a vital spark animates my
frail tenement. regard my imprison-
ment unjust, ungenerous, and feel that
| did nothing but what the divine law
would sanction. The penalty has been
paid, and can only express a wish that
he who impose ed that penalty, may have
a conscience void of offence, when he
himself shall appear before that great
tribunal from which there is no appeal.
Respectfully,
J. l.. WHITE.
