CENTAUR

The lame can be healed and the woundedl made

ments will do. They will not mend broken bones or
cure Cancer, but they will extract soreness, allay
pain, cure Rheumatism and larger range of flesh,
bone and muscle ailments than any articles ever be-
fore discovered.
Scientific skill cannot 60 beyond the effects of these
remarkable preparations. Chronic Rheuma-

SENTENCE DAY.

On last Monday Judge Townsend de-
liveled his opinion in the cases of Cur
dozo and Smalls, refusing the motions for
new trials and for arrest of judgment, and
called the prisoners up for sentence,
which he imposed as follows:
Cafdozo, two years in Jail and $4,000
fine, with proviso that if at the end OF
two years the fine is not paid, the pris.
oner shall be confined for ON additional
year.
L. Cass Carpenter, two years in jail
and 81 900 fine.
Robert Smalls, three years in the PEN
itsntiary.
These sentences appear TO us in COM
mon with many Others to be dispropor-
tionate to the several ofiences and the
nceitions occupied by tbs offenders. The
crime of Cardozo partook of all the essen.
tials Of three distinct aud heinous crimes
First, he '.as guilty Of violating the oath
OF his Office; second, Of breach of trust
! which by the statute of this State ia
made of the saWe character as o larceny
OF like amount; third, of conspiracy to
defraud. This being the fact Of tho case
the sentence appears to US uncommonly
light. and decidedly disproportioned ia

position held by Cardozo, o man should
be held to the most rigid account, and

THE REASON.

Our contemporary Is much displeased
with our County officers for advertising
only in the ISTELLIoENcEr, and pro-
fesses to be at loss to understand the
reason. We nave nerer before been COM
PEELED to notice the comments of broth
er Journalist in reference TO our private
business, and it is contrary TO our feel.
ings TO do so now; but circumstances
compel Us TO say something. If the re-
marks were made about us personally,
we should pass them by with the silent
contempt that we have bestowed upon
attacks which have been inserted in that
paper; but when they see fit TO censure
public officers because they prefer TO put
their advertising in the paper which is
circulated most widely, we must, in JUS
tlce to our patrons, give the public the
benefit OF tho facts as trey exist.
The public officers have no authority
to advertise the matters spoken of in
more than one paper, and Of course IL is
their duty to place public notices in the
paper having the largest circulation, in
order that the greatest number Of per-
sons may be enabled to see them. AS a
matter of fact, the INTELLIGENCER has
more than three times the number of
sabsc cribers than any other paper has in
Anderson County, and hence its adver.
tising is worth more than three times as
much as advertising in any other. The
iETELLIGENcER has long been the paper
that is the reputed organ of the County
democracy, and of the County Grange,
and as such circulat,s largely among the
taxpayers and farmers of Anderson
County and an advertisement put in it
will be seen by at least three men in
Anderson County where one would see
it If printed elsewhere. In selecting the
lNTELLIGENCER aa-their medium of ad-
vertising, the public officers only follow
the example set them by the majority OF
the people of Anderson County.

THE CRY eg RgpUDIATIoN.

Tho members of the Long Cane Dem
ocratic Club, in Abbeville County, adop-
ted the following wholesale resolutions
in favor Of repudation:
Resolued, That we instruct our delegates
to repudiate tho whole so.calied Republi-
can debt, made by that party while in
power, believing that it was made for tho
Interest Of the party, and not for the
welfare Of the State.
2. That they be instructed to pay no
bonds given for hills of the Eank of the
State, and that mono of the bills be ever
taken far taxes in the State OF South
Carolina.
8. We are willing to pay the ante.
bellum debt of the State when it shall
have been scaled In proportion to other
property of the State.
Tho adoption of theae resolutions show
very little discrimination on the part of
the members of this Club, for they con.
denim the debt, not because 1t is unjust,
but because unjust officials created it..

THE LEGIsLATURE.

The Columbia correspondent of the
Mc'cs and Courier, speaking of the ap-
preaching session of the Legislature,
says:
Canvassing is being engaged in with
considerable activity. It is generally be-
lieved that the election to fill ,Tndge
Northrop's former seat will be held al
most Immediately upon the assembling
of the Legislature, and there is hardly q
doubt that Gen. Wallace will be chosen.
Then will begin the struggle for the
Speakorship.
AS far as can be ascertained at present
MIR. Sheppard seems ahead in the race.
His friends speak very confidently, but,
OF course, there is no certainty. Messrs..
Orr and Aldrich are candidates for the
same position, besides Col. G. H. Simon
ton, who is reg--ded as MIR. Sheppard's
principal opponent. Either may develop
unexpected strength st the last moment,
but. as said before, Mr. Sheppard ap.
pears to lead now.
Judge Wright denies positively that
he has resigned, and evades the question
whether his resignation has been placed
in any ones hands. Notwithstanding
this, there is no doubt that his resigna.
tion or impeachment, and most probably
the former, will soon be accomplished.
The question then arises, "Who for
Associate Justice?" Col. A. @. Haskell,
the Hon. w. q. Porter and Ex-Governor
Bonham are the three gentlemen most
prominently spoken of. Col. Haskell
seems 20 be the favorite so far, but it is
impossible to make any confident pre6ic-
ton.
These positions will certainly be filed
within q few days after the meeting OF
the Assembly. Probably the same eau
cns will select candidates for all three.
