The article which we publish on another
mage on the subject of anTsthesia, attributes
The honor of its discovery to DR.. Long. but
shows by its own statements that DIR. Will
hite, who is practicing physician OF tins
town and one of the vice presidents OF the
South Carolina Medical Society, is at least
entitled to divide the honor of its discovery.
The facts are that his information to DR..
Long induced the experiment, and therefore
it seems to us that DR.. Wilhite should be
linked with DR.. Long in the honor which IS
accorded the discoverer Of an;eSthcSia.
u.G. Scudday, Esq, has been employed
as one of the counsel for the defence Of Alf.
McNinch, the man who murdered young
Killgore at Laurensville last December, and
who was found guilty of murder at the
spring term of the Court of Sessions for
Laurens County, but was granted new
trial and change of venue by the Supreme
Court. 1t is quite compliment to our
young friend to be employed in such an
important case, and is an evidence that he
is rapidly rising to prominence in his pro-
fession.
We regret to learn that Mrs. w. F. Baker,
of Atlanta, Ga, daughter of our townsman,
DR.. P. A. Wilhite, met with quite serious
accident one day last week, which came
near resulting fatally. She was out shop
ping, and while passing along one Of the
principal thoroughfares Of the city, was
overtaken and run over by runaway horse
which was hitched to dray. Both she and
her little daughter, by whom she was ac-
companied. sustained several very painful.
though not dangerous wounds. We are
gratified to learn they are rapidly recover

Tho Military Review.

The review of the 11th Cavalry Brigade
on last Thursday brought out good atten-
dance of the Eastern and Western Rcgi-
ments The Regiments were formed in
Hampton Park, the Eastern, under Col. NJ.
P. Tribble, Lieut.-Col. L. E. Campbell and
Mai. J. n. Vandiver, occupying the left,
and the Western, under Col. w. E. Wal
tiers, Lieut.-Co J. T. G. Jones and Maj.
Elias MCGEE, occupying the right: Adju-
tant and Inspector General e. w. Noise,
with Coils. Scofin and Mason were the re-
viewing officers, and, in company with
Gen. w. w. Humphreys and staff, began
the review about II o'clock in the morning.
The Regiments marched out from Hamp-
ton Park on Whitner street to the Public
Square, thence up Main street Ito Calhoun,
marched back to the Square, where the
Regiments again formed. Capt. Aliens
Company of Infantry resting on the left.
The next march was down Main street to
the University hill, where the column
passed the reviewing officers, and marched
back up McDuffie street and through the
| Square to Hampton Park. The companies
then dismounted and hitched, after which
Gen. Humphreys called the meeting to
order and expressed qualification at the sue
cess of the review, and at the attendance OF
so many, who had come to encourage the
military by their presence. He then intro
duced as the speaker of the day. Gen. E.
w. Noise, who delivered polished and
| pointed address, setting forth the condition
| of the militia in South Carolina, and show
| ing the necessity for maintaining and fos-
tering its organization. He complimented
the 18th Brigade and promised them at
least another 100 sabres this Fall, saying
that he had only been able to get one-hali
| of the money appropriated to his Office, in
asmuch as only portion of the taxes foI
this year have been collected. He criticised
the action of the Democratic Legislature in
not giving to his department of the govern
ment appropriations and legislation which
would make the system in South Carolina
an efficient one. He also said that the
State and County Fair Associations of the
State were ignoring the military, and that
if it is persisted in that there might be O
drill on the State House grounds during the
next State Fair, and the managers may
find that the crowd will gather to witness
the drill instead of their exhibition. Ills
address was well received, and he was fire.
quently applauded during its delivery. Al
the conclusion of this address Gen. Hum
phreys thanked those present for their at.
tention and good order, expressed the hope
that the 11th Brigade and the citizens Of
this County would have frequent reunions
in the future, and declared the meeting ad
journed. The dny was pleasant one, and
the review throughout was interesting to al
who were present.

SOMETHING NEW UNDER THE SUN.-A new
era is dawning upon the life of woman.
Hitherto she has been called upon to suffer
the ills of mankind and her own besides.
The frequent and distressing irregularities
peculiar to her sex have long been to her
the "direful spring of woes unnumbered. ="
In the mansion of the rich, and in the hovel
of poverty alike, woman has been the con-
slant, yet patient victim of thousand ills
unknown to man-and these without a
remedy. "Oh Lord, how long" in the
agony of her soul hath she cried. But now
the hour of her redemption is come: She
will suffer no more, for DR.. ]. Bradheld's
Female Regulator-Woman's Best Friend
may be relied on to cure all the diseases pc
culiar to women. Try it and be convinced.

is authentic.
The entertainment in the Masonic Hall
on Friday evening by the Presbyterian
ladies was success in every respect. 1t
was well attended by our citizens generally,
and by the young people especially, who
always find these occasions very pleasant,
inasmuch rs it affords an opportunity for
social intercourse. Everything in the way
of refreshments was disposed of, the net
proceeds amounting to about $40. The e1-
cellent music and tableau added very much
to the interest and pleasure Of the evening.

say that t win take too much money out of
the Treasury and cripple, if not prevent aud

money Is going, in the larger number of in
stances, to the hard-handod sons Of toil--mon
who would GLADLY spend 1t again for the ne.
cessarics Of life or, when they are better of,
would doubtless put it in the banks or in the
bonds Of the Government, We must Judge the

the money be back again in the Treasury in a

Again. IL Is urged in high places that so
much money paid out at once will cripple the
Treasury Department. Is this true? Any
man who Is not entirely blind to the facts of
the past knows that under the most favorable
circumstances with the present force of the
Pension Office 1t would be simply an impossi-
biity to pass on claims enough in the next
year to consume moro than Sl5,00O,00o of the
appropriation. This is fact that no one dare
deny who Is conversant with what is now re-
quired by the Pension Department to prove a
claim. This being the case, there is no need
TO hold back and do tho great injustice to all
of refusing to appropriate the money after
| passing the original bill.
Again, If man is entitled TO a pension at
all, he Is entitled to 1t from the date Of the
disability, whether he made application at that
time or not. The law-making power TO pre-
vent his getting IL does not change the justice
of his claim. II is strange that men so wise
in many things as are our lawmakers should
so pervert the ends of justice when they at
tempt TO prevent a righteous net from being
carried out, rs some of them are doing in this
case. What matters. IL whether the bill came
from one side of the House or the other? Give
the devil his due; and if bad man does right
once in his life, give him due honor for 1t.
If our lawmakers only knew how the hon
est citizens of both parties despi1o the claptrar
and bargaining by which some bills are passed
they would be careful never again to say "you
vote for my bill aud l will vote for yours" OIL
if you don't vote for mine will vote against
yours" There is no need to dony that thi:
is done even in tho halls of Congress- The
people know it is, aud thoroughly detest such
means OF legislation, and will some time in
the near future put their stamp of dsapproyal
on all such politicians, be they Of one party OF
another. VIAT0R.

THE Olsolona Miss States has discovered
a new ground of opposition to the Southern
war claims. 1t says they have nearly all
been bought up by Yankee spectators,
who are traitors to the Bonnie Blue!" OF
course it will not do to appropriate cent
for the benefit of any Yankee, and especially
one who is traitor to the South. So, the
States cries of these claims, Down with
them!" and proposes to cheat the Yankee
spectators out of their money invested
therein. This is Southern houah, sah! But
it serves the Yankees right, if such there be-
for trusting the miscreants.

THERE would be less opposition to the
anli-Chinese bill fit did not establish bad
precedent in the matter of treaty violations.
No one in this country can justify that iea-
ture Of the bill, any more than they can the
preposterOus claims of the Chinese to pro-
lection and all the privileges Of citizenship,
as well as some of its rights, while they re-
fuse TO become citizens. If the Chinese
would only become voters in this country
their usefulness as political factors would
insure many friends to them. As it is now
they come into direct competition with the
personal and business interests of our bona
fde fellow-citizens, native and naturalized
engaged in the varied employments OF
manufacture, agriculture, and more menial
labor, and the natural result is very strong
prejudice in favor of the latter. The theory
of all this is that the Government is in duty
bound to give preference to its own friends
over the casual interlopers-" foreigners" in
the true sense of the worldwide come to the
United States to earn n living, but who do
not renounce their allegiance to the govern
ment from which they are driven by starva-
tion, or by which they are permitted to be

Uebcrt vs.. Acklen.


1t is reported, on good authority, that Mr.. Il.
o. Hobert has at length marshaled his forces
for his attack upon Congressman Acklen's posi-
tion. He has all his evidence collected, and,
backed up 'by affidavits of serious import, is
determined to show that he was beaten in the
last election by very unfair means.
Among other documents is note for $500
given by Acklen to person in order to influ-
cnce him in voting aud persuading others to
vote.
There is also evidence tending to show that
Aclslen was mixed up in plot to make way
with certain persons who were opposing his
election. From all indications the testimony
of Mr.. Hebert will create u great sensation.
