This is a compound remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable ingredients, which
rarely fails to cure the severest cases of ChiIls
and Fever and the concOmitant disorders. Such
q remedy the necessities OF the people in mala-
rious districts demand. It's great superiority
over any other medicine yet discovered for the
cure OF Intermittents is, that it contains no quiz
nine or mineral, and those who take it are free
from danger of quinism or any injurious effects,
Ind are as healthy after using it as before. It
has been extensively employed during the last
thirty years IN the treatment of these distressing
disorders, and so unvarying has been its success
that ithas gained the reputation of being infal-
lible. IT can, therefore, be safely recommended
as 4 sure remedy and specific for the Fever and
Ague Of the West, and the ChilIs and Fever of
the South. 1t cOunteracts the miasmatic poison
In the blood, and frees the System from its in1u-
cnce, so that fever and aGue, shakes or chiIls,
once broken up by it, do notreturn until the
disease is again contracted.
The great variety of disorders which arise from
The irritation Of this poison, such as Neuralgia,
rheumatism, GOut, Headache, Blindness,
TOOthache, EGarache, CatarrF, Asthma, Pal
pitatiOn, Splenic Affections, Mysteries, Pain
in the Bowels, Collie, Paralysis, and derange-
of the Stomach, all Of which become intermit-
tent or periodical, have no speedier remedy than
AYERS AGUE CURE, which cures them ell alike,
AID protects the system from future attacks. As
4 preventive, 1t is of immense service in those
communities where Fever and Ague prevails, as
it stays the development of the disease if taken
on the first approach of the premOnitory symp-
toms. Travellers and temporary residents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
will ever suffer if they avail themselves of the
protection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpidity,
it is an excellent remedy it stimulates this organ
into healthy activity, and produces many remark
able cures where other medicines fail.

POLAND cn1NA AID BERKSHIRE.

The difference between good and poor
stock does not lie altogether in the feed,
as some farmers would endeavor to make
US believe, who assert that they have the
corn crib breed-an intimation that plen-
ty of feed is more than breed l have
proved to my owR satisfaction that much
depends upon the breed, as l have tried
the full bloods, and crosses of the Pc
land-Chinas, Berksbires and the Ches
ter Whites, as we'll as some of our COM
mon Iowa stock. l have given them all
q fair trial and an equal chance for fat
tening and the result has been that the
improved breeds will weigh nearly twice
as much as the common stock wheneV er
fed in the same way the same length of
time.
Another advantage is, that the Berk-
shires and Poland-Chinas are always
fat and ready for market whenever the
price suits find this to be a great ad-
vantage to the farmer who has these i'm
proved breeds, over the one who does
not have them, and who sticks to the old
fashioned breeds and has to wait eighteen
months or two years to get his hogs ready
for market 1t will pay we'll to get good
stock to breed from. such as WIFI fatten
at any age. Now is the proper season of
the year to make good selection. Com
mence right away; sell off your poor stock,
and produce the best. 1t will certainly
pay you Rural World.

RAISING CALVES.

For number of years past I have
raised large number CT calves for the
number ofcows l keep; sometimes two
or three and one year four, to a cow
The late June calves were good for moth
ing. When put up to winter on vegeta,
bles, meal and good fine hay they died.
The calf take from the cow before
three days old, to counteract the habit Of
sucking. pour a little milk down the
calf, between my fingers, which they
will generally suck and follow into the
pail; seldom put my fingers into their
mouths more than two or three times.
As soon as the calf learns to drink
WELL feed him milk with little
cream taken off, and gradually give him
older milk; at the same time make lit
tie porridge made of good wheat -four (the
shuck of graham -four will somet mes
kill young calvesG Feed three times a
day until they begin to eat Kay OF grass;
then twice.
Calves should learn to drink sour or
clabbered milk early, 20 cultivate taste
and save expenses, and winter better;
ought to be fed ninety days IF fed six
quarts new milk day at six cents per
quart, price here, it will amount to
$1,000 1T thirty days, which IS more
than the calf Is worth.
Calves should not have free access to
water, but should be let out to drink at
noon or after feeding at night; If dry and
thirsty they generally drink their milk
well.
They should be weaned gradually by
feeding less often, diluting their feed,
and diminishing the quantity. If in
good feed they will never tell you they
are hungry; if fed too long and much,
and weaned just before winter, they will
not do well; q little grain will do no

soAK1Na sEEps.-osAaR ORANGE.

Among the most radical reforms in
growing plants is that pertaining to soak
ing see DIS. Time was when but a few kinds
were thus treated and such only as were
furnished with hard shells or woody
coverings; but now many of our most
successful gardeners believe in the prac-
tice of soaking almost everything before
planting. The space of time necessary
for this operation is governed by a
knowledge of the terminating power
inherent in each; some should re main IN
the water for several days. Experien ced
Usage orange growers now advise for it is
immersion for a month at least and some
even place the bag of seeds in spring
of water in the autumn, and allow it to
remain there until the ensuing spring.
Those of my readers W no are in posses
sion Of q fruit-bearing tree may profit
perhaps by my experien ce. Lastautumn
! collected IN a heap all of the oranges
from my old specimen, and let them re-
main exposed to the weather until a few
days ago, when washed out the decayed
mass without any difficulty, and obtained
about & peck of nice seeds; the latter
were thrown into a bag, wet as they
were, and much to my surprise they at
once began sprouting, This is merely
an exemplifcation of the desire for
moisture by the Usage orange, as in this
case the sees were kept perpetually damp.

will now ask the attention to the
"Dutch breed" or, as it is sometimes
improperly called, "Holstein." This is
"A very popular breed of cattle for the
"butter dairy" and there are numbers of
lem imported into this country.
Dairying has for generations been the
most profitable and consequently the
favorite pursuit of Hollanders, and has
enabled them to become one Of the most
prosperous and wealthy people in Eu-
rope, They have raised up a remark
ably large, strong dairy breed, of very
deep mixers. Their dairying is con-
fined principally to cheese-making; SO
that they have had in view in the raising
up of this breed more the quantity of
milk than its richnessj

to 25 quarts (wine measure) at a milk

preceptible; at other times very full and
bounding. The legs and ears are quite cold
mouth not and dry-the membrane
lining the nostrils and eyelids, very red
almost livid. The horse prefers the stand
ing posture, with the fore legs stretched
far apart. Appetite entirely lost; thirst
considerable. He instin ctively seeks the
door or window of his stable for fresh
air. Cough variable; at times there is
little or none, at others very troublesome.
If these symptoms are not relieved, the
horse often dies in u or q hours-rarely
lives over O. days
The most frequent cause of pneumonia
is exposure to cold. In moderate weather,
like the present winter, the horse at his
work gets very warm; perspires so freely
that he soon becomes very wet If in
this condition he is put in a cold stable
or left where the cool wind can blow on
him, he is apt to have inflammation of the
lungs; but if, when he comes in from
work, tired and wet with sweat, blanket

danger will be greatly lessened Gan

The best mode of treatment depends
on circumstances; If the pulse is very
small and feeble, a stimulant viii be
necessary; say a half pint of whisky il
same quantity of water; if come-at-able
two ounces of spirits nitrous either may
be added to the whisky and water. LIE

and use the Observation-Disclosures blood

ness, open the vein again, and let the
blood flow until it is again softened

COUNTY CONVENTION.

In accordance with the call of the State
Executive Committee of the Democratic
party in South Carolina, it is hereby an
nounced that there will be County Con-
vcntion held at Anderson c. II. on Sat
urday, 18th of april nert, for the purpose
of electing six delegates to the State
Democratic Convention which meets in
Columbia on the 4th of May next.
The basis of representation in the
County Convention, as fixed by the Cen
trail Executive Committee, will be as fol-
lows: Each Democratic Club in Andsr-
ron County shall be entitled to one dele
gate for twenty-five members or under,
and an additional delegate for each addi-
tional twenty five members.
The Clubs are earnestly requested to
renew their diligence in procuring men,
bers between this time and the meeting
of the County Convention, SO that tha
fullest representation may be secured by
each, Club. The executive committees
are specially invoked to increase the
membership of their respective Clubs.
Delegates to the County Convention will
come prepared to report the exact num-
ber of persons belonging to their clubs,
so that the aggregate membership may
be ascertained.

was sufficient to call forth all of the enthu-
siasm of ones imagination. But at last the
storm is sp0nt and we are landed safely on
terra .frma only to await an opportunity Of
making tour of some other section of this
bright land.
Another feature of Eastern Florida, inter-
esting not only to the tourists, but especially
so to the historian, is the curious earth
mounds, built, it is supposed centuries ago
by the Indians. On Murphys Island, ten
miles south of Palatka, one of these mounds
has been the wonder of travellers for years,
but until recently no formal attempt has
been made to explore it. The results Of the
excavation were very gratifying; numbers
of arrow heads, pottery, shells, beads and
human bones rewarded the research. 1t is
also asserted that after making breach of
thirty-five feet there was discovered wall
built of coquina, being cemented and
adorned with devices of bows and arrows,
reptiles and figures of warriors. An open
ing being effected, several Of the party en-
tered with lighted torches, when to their
surprise they found themselves within q
vault eight feet in height, twelve in width
and fifteen in length. In this subterranean
chamber stood armed warriors, encased in
niches now in state of pctrification, that
have kept watch and ward over the quiet
scone for ages past. shall not vouch for
the authenticity of the above story, though
it is given as facts. Who were the builders
of these wonderful mausoleums yet remains
to be discovered-the resident Indians being
as ignorant of the architects as are our own
people, and, besides, all their traditions refer
them to race prehistoric and superior to
their own. An instance of which may be
proven by the perfect skulls that are often
discovered in these mounds, bearing no re-
semblanco to the Indian contour, but, on
the contrary, present regularly formed and
we'll developed foreheads.
Each week an excursion is made to some
neighboring point Of interest, thus beguiling
the hours, as well as adding to ones store of
varied information concerning this beautiful
country, so justly termed the Italy of
America" Yet, with all of its charms and
attractions, it possesses many counter charms
and disadvantages, 80 that We are at last con-
strained to exclaim: "The first, best country
is OF homs!"

THE DUTY OF EVERY NAN.

We commend the following from the
Spartanburg Herald to every citizen in
Anderson County who desires to rescue his
State or County from the misrule and
oppression to which we have been SUBJ
jected by the Republican party. Every
man should not only become interested
in the work Of organizing the Democratic
party, but should endeavor to interest
his neighbor. Erry man should DO a
member ofa Democratic Club, aud attend
its meetings punctuaRy. Our political re-
demption depends upon it. Upon this
subject the Herald says:
We care not how disagreeablc or dis
tasteful politics may be, it is the duty of
every one who feels an interercst in the
welfare of the State to come forward and
bear his share of the burden. Itisa duty
every good citizen owes to his country, to
his State, to his family and to himself, to
bear his part of the burden in organizing
and giving shape to the policy of the par
ty now forming for the purpose of trying
to secure M honest and economical State
government. Let no one lay the fatter-
ing JUNCTION to his vanity that politics is
beneath his dignity. Everything we
hold dear, our lives, our liberties and our
property, all are involved in the question
of politics. The higher the position, the
greater the influence any one may have
in the community, the greater is his re-
sponsibility and his criminality, if he fails
to do his duty in the impending crisis.
We need our best men and our wiSest men
to counsel and advise at every step in this
movement, and every true man should
enrol himself and attend the Club meet
ings regularly, and throw the whole
weight Of his presence, his counsel and
his influence in favor of good government
If we expect to succeed in defeating the
corrupt party now in power, we must
have the combined influence of all honest
and intelligent men. 1t is the height of
folly for good men to stay away from po-
litical meetings and leave politics to be
run by those only who find it agreeable
to their tastes. If ever we needed good
men Mt the helm, We need them now;
and every good man should buckle on his
armor, prepared to do his whole duty in
the coming campaign.
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1876-03-09

Representatives have more confidence
than in Lamar, of Mississippi-no man
whose counsel is more frequently sought
and needed. The Republicans, also, not
only respect his unobtrusive wisdom
and admire his brilliant powers as an
orator and debater, but have kindly
feeling toward him, begotten by his
frankness and generosity. They believe
him to be a truthful man, genuine
peacemaker, as he claims to be, anxious
to see both sections of the Union forget
the animosities of the past, and vie with
each other in their endeavors to add to
the prosperity and glory of our common
country. Lamar's influence on the
Southern delegations to the Democratic
Presidential Convention will be deserved.
