A Hoto of Warning to Suffering Humani'

We feel that we would be wanting in
the duty we owe to suffering humanity
if we did not sound note of warning In
regard to the use of Mercury and other
poisonous minerals in the treatment OF
Blood and Skin Diseases: If the reader
could see the horrible suffering, the awful
wrecks of human health and happiness,
shown by our correspondence with those
who have been dosed with these mineral
poisons, he would shudder with horror.
Arsenic, Mercury, Anthony, and Iodide
of Potassium are some of the remedies
most ordinarily used for these diseases,
and they are all POISON. Do not take
these poisons. They might dry up your
disease for few days, and with it You
will have Mercurial rheumatism, which
may bring you years Of torture. The
Mercury seems to sink into the bones,
and the Potash drives tho Poison into the
system, only to lurk there aud attack the
tender organs of the body, as the lungs,
the throat, the nasal organs and stomach.
Hundreds of people have been made deaf,
and great many blind, by the use of
Mercury and Potash. Beware of Mercury
and Potash Mixtures gotten up in inita-
tion of our Specific. A few grains of
sugar of lead dropped into aglass of these
limitations will cause the poisonous drugs
TO fall to the bottom, and show the danger
of using them. Swift's Specific is entirely
vegetable, and is the best tonic for deli
cafe ladies and children and old people in
the world.

Grand Jury,s pre.entm ont.


To his Honor B. C. Presley, presiding Judge
of the Court of General Sessions for Ander-
|. son County:
The Grand Jury for Anderson County
at this the first term of the Court for the
year 1885 beg leave to submit the follow
ing report:
That we have discharged the duties
committed to us at this term of the Court.
That we have through committees from
our body examined the several County
ocfIles, Jail and poor house, and find
them in good order. There are some re.
pairs needed about the Jail. A great
many glass are out of the windows and
should be'replaced. We think also that
the prisoners should be required to keep
themselves and their cells more cleanly.
That the several County officers seem
quite efficient and their books neatly and
correctly kept. They are oil sadly il
need of moro room and furniture.
We find the office now occupied by the
Treasurer entirely too small to admit OF
such arrangements as would enable that
officer to transact his business with facili-
ty. Considering the importance of the
office and the accumulation Of books and
papers, and the large number of persons
necessarily having business there, we re-
commend that our County Commission
ers provide some moro conmodious place
where the taxpayers can be waited on
with less inconvenience to themselves
than under the present arrangement.
This change would place the Grand Jury
in possession of their old room which they
very much need.
That the Auditors office needs desk
and some furniture to protect the books
and papers Of the office, and we recon-
mend that the County Commissioners
have the necessary furniture made.
We glanced over the bill TO simplify
and make more efficient the law in rela-
ton to the assessment and collection of
taxes, recommended by the tax commits
sion and to he acted upon By our n91t
Legislature, and we would respectfully
suggest to our Senator aud Representa-
tives that they would do we'll to visit the
Offices of our County Auditor ana Treas
urer and inform themselves thoroughly
upon these matters. We suggest this be-
cause those officers are we'll acquainted
with the business and can give great
many valuable suggestions. Our present
system is greatly in need Of simplifica.
ton. Our Treasurer and Auditor are en-
gagged in the practical part of the tax busi'
hess and are capable of giving valuable
information on our system for collecting
taxes.

WILMINGTON, Del, Aug. 19.-Captain Wiley and Pilot Curry have been over hauling the plaster and debris on the steamer S. M.

THE GREAT WABASH STRIKE.

Omcers of the Road in iConferenee at New. York.
 NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-The arrival in this city of Captain R. s. Hayes and Mir. H. M.
 Hoxie, the first and third vice presidents re- spectively of the Wabash road, and a confer ence this morning at the office of the road in the Western Union building led to the opinion that the strike of the Knights of Labor may have assumed more important aspect. One of the officials this afternoon said to United Press reporter: t'I do not think the strike is of a serious character. The conference this morning was merely an ordinary one. I think the trouble is not ex- tensive. but is limited to a few men in the shops. That they can't interfere with the Wabash is certain, for the road is in the United States courts. There is no dissatis- faction as to wages, for all the men are paid The pay car IS going about the road now. It appears to be demand made by the men to exclude non-union men,"
 An official of the Louisville 6 Nashville said that the men on that road had not struck and there was no trouble reported. "I do not think it will amount to same opinion was expressed at the office of the Texas. New Orleans and Southern Pacific road. MT. Hopkins, anoth- CT prominent official of the Wabash road, said: If the men want to strike they can do so. They will not be striking against the railroad officers and stockholders, but they will hit the government. A railroad that is in the hands of 8 receiver is operated by the judge of the court. The officers of the com pany have no power in the matter. I think that the receiver is doing all he can afford to do for the employees. If the question of wages is brought up will gay that the men cannot be paid higher salaries than are war ranted by the business of the road.''
 Jay Gould rather unexpectedly returned from his cruise. He had 8 conference with Receiver Humphreys of the Wabash and Vice Presidents Hopkins, Hayes and Hoxie of the Missouri Pacific Afterward he said that he did not think the Wabash strike very important and he did not see how it could extend to the Missouri Pacific system, as all of the latter employees we'll and promptly paid. Secretary Ashley of the Wabash spoke of the strike as a small affair and said: ''Under no circumstances will we agree to the terms demanded by the Knights of I Labor D
