The Fair.

Read the premium list in another col
umn. All doubt about having a Fair.
having been removed our people should
now go to work to make it a great sue
cess. We have ne politics to interrupt us
and we may with a little effort, have a
splendid Fair. We regret only one thing
about the Fair, and that is their refusal
to lower the gate fees. We think no
charge for a single person should be more
than twenty-five cents, and when a man
has a large family, he should bring in rs
many as he has in the family at a
rate reduced even lower. Put the
price to big families at a dollar a dozen
for one day or two dollars a dozen for
three days. We want the people to come
together and interchange ideas, renew old
friendship, and make new acquaintance.

Charleston.

The Ncws and Courier showed great
enterprise in its trade issue. in which it
presented many interesting facts in refer
ence to u principal city. Our people
have always felt great friendship for
Charleston, and would have given the
City by the Sea more of our trade in
former years, if it had not been for the in
convenient railroad schedules and the
high tariffs charged for freight and pas
sengers. Our trade would naturally 60
to that city with proper management o.
the part of the Railroad authorities. I'm
der the former management the cost of
going to New York was but little more
than the cost of going to Charleston.

The Bryce Murder.

We are sorry to see the New York Her.
AID, which, in its way has at times done
good service to the psople of the South,
lending the aid Of its circulation and in
fuence to the dissemination Of Il gross
calumny affecting the good name Of South
Carolina. 1t puts down the murder
of Alexander Bryce, which occurred at
Walhalla OH the 1st of September, as san
affair bearing very distinctly the 1aZoo
stamp" and adds that ''no mention what
ever has been made OF Bryce's assassina-
ton in the local press of South Carolina"
These statements are simply untrue, in
spirit and in fact. Bryce, it is true, was
a Republican ; but politics had absolute
ly nothing to do with his assassination.
Senator Conkling is also a Republican
and was recently the victim of a shotgun
tragedy in Rhode Island /; but shall We
therefore treat the stalwart Roscoe as a
political martyr and complain that the
A~rgus-eyed Herald has made mo men
ton Whatever of his fate? The truth is
that the murder of Bryce occurred i'll n
of the remote mountain counties of the
State. The NeUS and Courier published
the facts, and all the facts, connected with
the crime as soon as they could be obtain
I'd. Our contemporaries OF the local
press Of South Carolina" did likewise ;
and nobody in this State, whether Demo-
crat or Republican, has ever suggested
that the murder had a political smotlvc.
We hope the Herald will have the manu.
ness to redress the wrong it has hastily
done to South Carolina.

Judge PRESLEY.

Judge Presley while holding Court at
Abbeville did not wear the gown usually
worn by the Judiciary Of South Carolina.
He also departed from the usual custom
of Judges when he did not have the
Sheriff, with sword and cooked hat, to
escort him from his boarding house to
the Court room. These may be advanced
ideas. but we confess a preference for the
old formalities, which required the Sher-
If to escort the presiding Judge, and
directed that he should wear his gown
while holding Court, while it also COM
PEELED the attorneys to appear in Court

SYMPTOMS of a Diseased Liver

Symptoms of Diseased Liver.
DAM in the right side, under the
| edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain is
felt under the shoulder blade, and it
frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The
stomach is affected with loss of appe-
tite and sickness; the bowels in gen.
eral are costive, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally a considerable loss of mem,
ory,. accompanied with a painful sen
sation of having left undone some
thing which ought to have been done.
A slight, dry cough is sometimes an
attendant. The patient complains of
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of a prickly sensa-
ton Of the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer.
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few of them ex-
isted, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.
