Brandreth's Pills have been used by
millions of human beings. Their success
is founded upon the theory of reason. and
an attentive observation Of symptoms OF
disease. Whatever makes bad digestion
breeds disease, and whatever makes good
digestion cures disease. Braudreth's Pills
make good digestion, purify the blood, and
remove all bad humors out of the body bv
the organs of the stomach and bowels.
They act in harmony with vital action
and work of nutrition; the strength in.
creases, the skin and eye become cloar,
and the symptoms Of the malady are sure
ly rendered milder by their use. They are
harmless for all ages and conditions.

THE COUNTY's CONvICrs.
Their Work in the Minis and Teyn nC
SwampS.

The convict force, which had been en-
ployed for several months in rebuilding
the Ogeechee road between Salt Greek
causeway and the Little Ogeechee bridge,
has resumed the work of cutting a canal
through the Minis swamp, which was
discontinued last year owing to the
amount OF water in 1t. This swamp is
the basin for the drainage OF an extensive
area, and being near the southwestern
suburbs OF the city it has been source
otmuch anxiety on the part of those who
live in that section.
The opening of a canal through tn e
swamp will also improve the healthtui-
ness OF the farming land III the neighbour
hood.
Another gang OF convicts is engaged in
leveling the old Confederate bat
teries south OF tho Teynac swamp
into the bitches. A read is also
being constructed at the same
time 30 Gs to afford communication
between the Waters and the White BLUM
roads. The work on the NJ iuis and Teynac
swamps. when done, viii complete the
drainage OF the low lands adjoining the
extended city limits, and will doubtless
add much to the general health.

a lifting time by the stock holders TO show
their appreciation of the CentraPs man
agement by Offering unanimously to lease

thing for the Central to get il under some
permanent arrangement. II will prove
more aud more remunerative 10 them and

Glass Rai,roxd RTE

Berlin papers copy from the Germania
an account Of an important discovery in
glass manufacture made by Friedrich
Siemens, OF Dresden. He has succeeded
In casting glass in the same way as me-
tai is cast and obtaining an article corr
responding to cast metal. This cast e lass
is hard, not dearer in production than
caft iron, and has the advantage of trans
parency, so that all flaws can be detected
before 1t is applied to practical use. 1t
will be much less exposed to injury from
atmospheric influences than iron. The
process Of production is not difficult, the
chief feature being rapid cooling. The
hardness and resisting power of this cast
glass are so great that experiments are
being just now carried out at tile Siemens
Glass Foundry at Dresden with the pur-
pose of ascertaining whether the mate
rial could be employed for rails on rail
ways.
