He. family physician didal be could, but intense
ly painful Inflammation arose, which, by sym
pathy threatened the loss of the other eye. Total
blindness to woman having the care of house
hold, is an irretrevable calamity. In this strait,
Mrs. s. applied to the we'll known and skillful
surgeon, DR.. Blank, who removed the injured eye
by very successful operation, setting aside all
danger Of further harm to the sight of the other
eye. But owing to the pain and mental distress,
her system needed tonic and restorative medi-

"Old DR.. Mays" Compound Syrupof Sarsaparil-

Blood Purifier, which sustained its reputation
and laid sure foundation of health. Sold only

DEATH OF R. THOMAS MAY.

Rock HILL. S. c., November 2S.-Again is
our town wrapt in profound sorrow. "A mel
ancholy gloom overShadOwS the hearts or our
people, for we are called to mourn the death
of one of our beSt-beloved and most worthy
citizens, in the person of R. Thomas May, who
passed away in the stiffness of al early Sab
bath morn. The brightness OF the morn
seemed wont to diSpel the gloom and direct
our thoughts to the bright realms OF eternal
bliss. whence the loved soul winged its flight.
He was beloved by all-possessed OF the most
noble and generous impulses that ever adorned
the character of man. He was loving son, a
devoted husband, a fond and affectlonate pa
rent. He leaves host of friends, an aged
widowed mother, brother and sisters, kind
and lovely wife and four sweet little children
to mourn his loss untimely it seems to us, for
he was in the early manhood of life, being only
35 years of age.
Truly. sin the midst of life we are in death. )"
Mysterious are the ways of Providence. we
can but say, "Not our will, bat Thine be
done.' Our hearts are too full for expression.
Yet the departure of such an one deserves
more than a passing notice. The disease
which snatched him from the bosom of his
family and friends, was that most dreaded,
and which has baffled the skill of the most en-
inent physicians His suffer-
ings were characteristic with the disease, and
his decline most rapid.
The funeral services were held in the Pres
byterian church to-day, at II o'clock, a. NJ,
RevS. J. NJ Boyd and j. S. White officiating.
The services were most solemn and impressive.
The remains were inferred IN LaurelWood
Cemetery, with Masonic honors. Other Or
ganizations, of which he was an honored
member, paid due respects in the last sad rites
The business houses suspended business during
the hour, and a large concourse OF people at
tended the services and the burial.
Our heartfelt sympathies, and OF the entire
community, are most affectionately rendered
the bereaved. May the oil of sweet cOnsola-
tion be abundantly poured by the divine Hand,
in tender compassion, upon the sad hearts OF
the afflicted family. G.
CONFEDERATE BoNDs--A London dispatch
of Saturday says that the committee of Conted-
crate bondholders in England state that their
programme is, primarily, by steady and per-
severing appeals, first to the public and then
to the Legislatures of the United States, to
bring about the opinion that the time has
come when the restriction imposed by the
14th amendment of the Constitution should
be removed so far as At prohibits the South
ern States from affecting just and equitable
settlement of their debts legally contracted.
The committee repudiate the idea of embark.
ing in litigation to recover Confederate prop
erty in Europe.
