Mr.. John Peterson, Of Patoutville,
La, was very agreeably surprised
not long ago. For eighteen months
he had been troubled with dysentery
and had tried three of the best doc
tors in New Orleans, besides half a
dozen or more patent medicines, but
received very little relief. Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy, having been recommended
to him, be gave it trial and to his
great surprise, three doses OF that
remedy effected permanent cure.
Mr.. VIM. Mcnamara, a we'll known
merchant of the same place, is we'll
acquainted with Mr.. Peterson and
attests to the truth of this statement.
This remedy is for sale by J. E Kauf-
mann.

Which is better, to thoroughly
cleanse and purify the blood just
now, or make yourself liable to
the many dangerous ailments
which are so prevalent during
summer? Impurities have been
accommodating in the blood al
winter, and right now is the time
to get rid of them. A thorough
course of Swift's Specific is needed
to cleanse the blood and puri-
fy the system, toning up and
strengthening it all over. Those
who take this precaution now are
comparatively safe all summer;
but to neglect it is to invite some
form of sickness which is SO COM

The Fair Pays Expenses.
ro the Editor of the Dispatch;

To the Editor of the Dispatch;
I hear that it is rumored in vari-
Gus sections of the county that the
Lexington County Fair Association
procured the passage through the
last Legislature Of an act authoriz
ing the Governor 10 appoint a num-
ber of constables to serve on our
fair grounds, and that they would
be paid by the county. In order to
correct the impression that such con-
stables are to be paid by the
county, but by the Fair Association,
I would be much obliged if you
would publish under this card the
full act in question so that everybody
can see how they are to be paid.

seems to be as strong, confident and
determined today as at any tine
since it began. Insurgent forces
are found in every one Of the prov
inces. According to the latest report
of their distribution, approved by the
Cuban junta in this country. there
are $4,000 men in arms, Of whom
nearly half are in the cavalry branch
of service. Beginning with the
westerpmost province, Pinar del Rio,
Which General Weyler pronounced
.paciied," before be was recalled,
there are, west CT Weyler's trccha,
near Havana, some 1900 insurgents,
under the command Of Generals
Diaz, Lorente and Ducasse. OF
these 3,S0e are infantry and the rest
cavalry. These constitute the 9Th
army corps In Havana and Matar-
zss provinces is the 5th army corps,
commanded by General Rodriguez,
with half dozen chiefs of divisions.
This corps consists of 2,3G0 Infantry
and 1900 cavalry. The Matanzas
division is in charge of General Be
tancourt. In Santa Clara is the 4th
army corps, consisting of $500 men
under General Carillio, assisted by
General Nuuez, Arando, Monteago
and Jose Miguel Gomez. This makes
a total of l6,700 men il the western
department. In the two provinces
of the eastern department, Puerto
Principe and Santiago de Cuba, there
are about l2,600 men, most of whom
are in the latter province under Gen
eral Calixto Garcia. In the former
is the seat OF the Cuban government,
at La Esperanza, in the Cubitas
mountains, and the headquarters Of
General Gomez, the commander-ln-
chief of the Cuban forces. These
forces are we'll equipped, and in the
eastern department have a plentiful
supply OF food Thirty thousand
Cubans, not in active service, are, it
is said, filling the ground and
furnishing food to the gents.
The Spanish army is supposed to
number 100000 or more under the
general command of Captain General
Blanco. In Cuban waters is a con-
siderable Spanish navy, consisting of
seven cruisers, 10 guuboats (small)
on transport, FIVE torpedo boats and
"a launches. 1t is the purpose of
this feet to prevent the insurgents
from receiving arms, ammunition and
supplies from the United States and
other otside sources. The cost of
the war to Spain has been, so far,
over S2SO,O00, 600, and the yearly ex-
penditure is estimated at about $685.:
100000.
