writes

In answer to your letter of the 18th in
slant, can say that your remedy, known
as Lacupia, has performed some remarka-
bleacures in my hands. One, a case Of
Salt Rheum, or letter, is worthy of no
tioing. The patient, young man 20
years of age, had had letter for eight
years. During all this time he was con-
stantly annoyed by it. He called on me.
/ found he had been using nearly all the
remedies which are generally prescribed.
I thought here was a case to try your La
cupia, which did, and at the end of there
months he is now well. also have case

Mr.. J. B. w., Philadelphia, Pa,
writes.

Ihave been entirely cured by your La
cupia of breaking out on my face, which
often annoyed me, especially when in
company, as 1 could not help thinking
how disagreeable it made my face look to
the ladies'. These pimples were spread
all over my face, neck and breast. My
physician told me that they came from a
bad condition of the blood. Nothing that
he gave me did me any good, and I tried
different remedies that were advertised
for eruptions and pimples, but they did
not cure me. I was advised to try your
Lacupia by friendwhO had been cured
of the same complaint, with it. / have
been using it for two months, and my face
is now rid of the disgusting. pimples, and
thank you for it, for you do not know
how much more comfortably feel in COM
pany of ladies.

Cincinnati Gazette: The difficulty in
Louisiana, which cost seven colored men
their lives, and promises to result in more
bloodshed, is the old one. The Republi-
cans Outnumber the Democrats in the
parish ten to one, yet they were warned
that if they undertook to organize they
would do so at their peril. They under
took it and fight was the result, the on
ly sufferers, so far as heard from, being
the negroes. Our Southern brethren are

Tho State Executive Committee.

Amouu the business transacted by the State
Democratic Executive Committee at its meeting
held in Columbia the lUlh inst, the follow
ing general plan for conducting the primary
elections was agreed upon, and ordered to bo
sent to the various County Chairmcn. Tho
members arc impressed with the Importance Of
the system rs the best and tlircSt method for
Letting candidates to be voted for in each county,
thereby tending to unity and harmouzc the par
~ throughout the State. The suggestions made
in the annexed series arc general in their char
acter, as is entirely proper, for it would be
difficult to prepare details which would operate
with equal force and smoothncss in every local
ity The recommendations of the Executive
Committee are embraced in the following points:
!. ASpirants for the position Of candidates
should be announced individually in any mode
deemed proper hy themselves or their friends,
but should be placed distinctly before the Dem
ocra,ic party their own merits, and not as
the candidate of any organized body Of Demo-
Gratis.
. Each aspirant for the position Of candidate,
whcn he accepts the nomination made shall
Immediately Y notify the County Chairman in
writing Of the fact, and in the same communi
cation state that he is member of some local
club and subscribe TO the following pledge: -
agree to abide hy and support the nominations
Of the Democratic party and not to accept eth
cr u nomination or an Office from any other
source than the regularly constituted Democrat
ic organization"
s. At least five days before the primary clcc-
ton, the County Chairman shall notify the DEM
ocratic Clubs of the aSpirants who have thus
qualified themselves for the position of canLi-
daic, and votes cast for any other person or
persons shall not be counted
!. On the day fixed for the primary election,
each local club shall hold an election for candi-
dates OF the Democratic party, and report tho
| result in writing over the signatures of the man
| ayers TO the County Chairman. At this election
none but members of the local clubs shall vote
and each member before being allowed to vote
shall take the following pledge: IL solcmnly
affirm that | am duly enrolled member of
this Democratic Cluh that have not voted ut
this election, and that viii abide by and sus-
tain all nominations made by the Democratic
party. whether Iov Federal, State or county Of
iccrS.'
.. Upon the following day, the County Chair
man and at least two members of the County
Executive Committee shall assemble at the couu-
ty seat, and aggregate the votes reported, and
before sumdOTn declare the candidates selected
G. No one shall be declared the nomin &c of

ity OF all the votes east in the primary election

Teachers Convention

Mn. EDIToR.--I heartily concur in the views
expressed by "Teachcr i'll your issue OF April
9th, in reference to convention Of the teachers
OF Union County. The advantages 10 be derived
from such an association arc perhaps greater
than any other profession. Teachers are too
apt t., follow in the old ruts made by those who
were their instructors. By an Interchange Of
opinions each teacher may learn what improve
mcnts have been made in the science of teaching.
As Teacher suggests, Every one has had his
trouble with !hc different text books Many OF
these arc written 10y persons unacquaintci with
the true theory Of teaching. The teacher
should be SO familiar with the branches he is TO
teach, that he should feel himself above text
books, anl where they are ut fault, to cndcavor
10 set them right. He should not com!inc him
self 10 n stereotype course Of instruction and go
hohbling upon crutchcs into such noble woyk.
Then, in order that every one may be thor
oHghly equipped for his profession, it is ncccS-
sary, at stated times, to come in contact with
other minds, to get his opinions properly adjus-
ted. THUS the teacher is brought in direct
contact with thnsc Of his profession and the con-
tractcd views which he heretofore entertained
are dissirarcl, and he is enabled to make a more
sober estimate Of his capacity, and to suspect
that there may lie
''Somc things in heaven and earth
Not dreamed of III his philosophy
But need not enlarge upon the benefits TO
be derived from such an association, | would
therefore in compliance with the request Of
"Tcachcr,' suggest that all who desire To form Il,
teachers association meet at Union G. II e, on the
first Saturday Of May, at II o'clock \. NJ.
Respectfully,
~ y. JAMES.

FROM Charleston,


EpIroR TfMEs-The u. s. Court is very lei
surety employed in the trial of Revenue intrac-
tionists. 1t is really amusing to note the char
acter of the cases brought before this august
tribunal and the mock gravity with which they
are investigated. Poor ignorant devils, from
the coves OF the mountains and the Runs of tho
sandhills, dragged from their homes for the al
legged violation of the Revenue Laws, in running
a still with an old musket barrel, from whose
capacity Was n run Of about n gallon day
Careless or ignorant men drawn up for having
tobacco boxes, cigar boxes or whiskcy casks with
uncanccllcd stamps upon them, or for not post
ing their license in conspicuous place. What
think you Of trying fellow for selling "Brandy
Peaches" at n Camp Meeting, and finding him
guilty of violation the Revenue Law, because
the brandy not all soaked up by the peach
cs. All the money which can be got out Of this
farce will not pay half the expenses of keeping
up this force Of Raiders Swarms of these pests
arc in!csting the country, prying into hooks and
corners, frightening and insulting men and wo-
men, and keeping up constant irritat on by
getting mean men to turn nformcrs against their
ncighbors. Tramps avant couriers for the Rev
enuc officials. In the West and North thousands
of gallons Of whiskcy arc distilled and other in
fractions of the Revenue law daily committed,
| which pass unnoticcd or SUI! ksscd by II
''placebo," while here, every poor fellow is hun
| ted down rs if he were n will beast, his prcmi-
ses watched day and night, and all manner Of
petty ann0yances kept up. But the hangers
on of party pust be provided with pap 10y Gov

We call the attention Of every democrat in
Union County to the Circular of the Executive
Committee and lhe form of constitution for local

Pinibn upon one or two articles of the consti-
tation, but it musttbc remembered that in the
Tho "form" published is only recommen-
ded and that each club is to "adopt its own con
siitution to suit itself" We are aware that
many good and trr, democrats have strong OBJ
jections 10 joining political clubs but if such men
will consider how great the necessity is for
guarding the primary elections from the en-
croachmcnts of the enemies of the party, in
making nominations, they must see how essen;
tlal it is that some plan should be adopted bS
whieh none but those who intend to stand by
the kOrlinaions Of the democratic party shall
be allowed to take part i'll tho selection of its

in Eance, that you will do all in your power
to Eauize the party and select good men as
