LIVER COMP. AINT.

When from any of the numerous unci-
ting causes the Liver begins to act abnor-
mally, the bile remains in the system,
vitiating and perycrting every vital pro-
cess, and causing Boils, Carbuncles,
Blotches, Pimples, Coughs, Bronchitis,
Asthma, Consumption, Dyscntcry, Kid
Eey and Bladder diseases, and many other
disorders, all originating directly or indi-
rectly from the Liver. Kellcr's Vegetable
Life Drops induce the healthy action of
the Liver by providing for the removal Of
the hillary constituents by the Bowels,
Kidneys and Skin.

of Rev. II. t. White was made TODAY
about O'Clock, by DR.. IIughson, at tile
house Of Mr. Spencer Davis, nine miles
below Sumter, which revealed n gunshot
wound Just above the left ear. The ball
penetrated the brain, making it's exit
through the opposite parietal bone and
producing death in n few minutes.
1t is supposed that the murderer mis-
took Mr.. White for gentleman of C!ar-
cnd0n, who took an active part in thc
interests of the Democracy in the late
campaign.
This morning Richard Coleman, col
orcd man, living five mile below the
scene of the murder, was arrested and
lodged in Jail, circumstantial evidence
being strong against him.

A new scheme of taxation
has been proposed in tho constitu-
tional convention of California, some
thing after the plan laid down by Hon.
George ". Julian, OF Indiana, in the M-
ternaiiondi Rerie,c. 1t is described as
graduated progressive taxation" and
provides for division of the land of the
State into classes, the valuation for the
purposes OF public revenue being dcpen-
dent on the number Of acres possessed
by each tax payer. Thus it is proposed
to add 80 per cent. 10 the valuation of
land when the holder thereof owns more
than 200 acres, and the assessment is TO
be further increased in proportion as
ownership comprises increased acreage.
1t need hardly DO pointed out that the

lation IS to place check upon the nccu-
