Something That Will Do You
Good.

Camden IS. c. Messenger.
We know of no way in which we
can be Of more service to our readers
than to tell them of something that
will be of real good to them. For
this reason we want to acquaint them
with what we consider one of the
very best remedies on the market for
coughs, colds and that alarming COM
plant, Group. We refer to Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. We have
used it with such good results in our
family so long that it has become o
household necessity. By its prompt
use We haven't any doubt but that it
has time and again prevented Group.
The testimony is given upon our own
experience, and we suggest that our
readers, especially those who have
small children, always keep it in their
homes as safeguard against Group"

The proposed drainage law was
killed as was the bill to require all
foreign corporations locating to do
business in this State to take out
charters in this State. The House
also passed the bill to require county
boards of education to name the
teschers in the county summer
schools.
The House was in session nearly
eight hours today and began to
get the heavy bills out of the way.
There will be many bills to die on
the calendar, however, because they
cannot be taken up in time.
The discussion of the anti trust
bill was resumed and it finally passed
it's third reading.
When the third reading bills were
disposed of Mr.. Webb tried to get
up his bill to limit the number OF
hours of labor in cotton factories.
This created somewhat of stampede
and the House decided not to take
up the bill until after the general
supply bill could be disposed Of The
big supply bill was discussed. On
8 motion to reduce the State levy
from 5 to A mills, Mr.. E6rd went
through the calculations made by
the committee. The taxable prop
erty of the State is s1s9,0O0,O0O, At
5 mills the revenue would be 1864, 900.
Whatever fees might come in ad-
ditioual would be ? needed for the
annual appropriations will aggregate
$1,022,000. The motion was lost
and the bill passed to third read
ing.
MIR. Moses then pressed the legis-
lative supply or appropriation bill,
which fixes the per diem and mile
age of the general assembly. For
the Senators $4,000, if so much be
necessary, is appropriated, and 81
$50 for the clerks; for doorkeepers,
porters, etc, $1,130; contingent fund
5000.
For the per diem and mileage OF
the house, if so much be necessary,
s25, 900; for clerks $2,22O; for door
keepers, laborers, ETC., $l,45O; con-
tingent fund $4,000.
The engrossing department gets
$4,000, If so much be necessary, to
pay the per diem of the solicitors,
clerks, laborers, etc.
This makes the total of all items SO
follows: Senate, S12,41o; house, $780,
go; engrossing department, $4,000.
Grand total S57,5S0, based on the
constitutional limit of 40 days.
The night session of the House
was taken up in debate on the vari-
GUS measures pending.
SENATE.
In the Senate large number OF
bills received their second and third
readings. This was about the work
of the Senate.
HoUSE-NOND4Y.
The House took up the bill to fix
the salaries of county officers and
after various amendments the Senate
bill was passed. The bill is to take
the place of existing laws which are
said to be unconstitutional.
The following changes which
effects this county were: Made
under the provision for Sheriff the
following was added: "That the
Sherifs Of the various counties of
this State shall receive annual
salaries in lieu of all costs and fees
chargeable against the county, as
follows" etc: After stating the
amount to be paid the salary OF the
Sheriff of each county, the bill pro-
vides: "That in addition to the
salary hereinabove provided, the
Sheriffs of the various counties of the
State shall receive 20 cents per day
for dieting each prisoner while in his

citation of the State Board of Dis
pensary Directors, in which he
charged mismanagement and extra
vagance. He said there WAS now
over 100000 worth of dead stock
on hand in the State dispensary. A
bill passed it's third reading forbid
ding the Directors from buying
liquors except upon a requisition of
the State Commissioner.
The bill providing for the estab-
lishment of State soldiers home
was withdrawn.
A favorable report was made on
the bill to provide for the further
completion of the State house. On
immediate consideration the bill was
given its second reading and will
probably pass.
A large number OF bills received
their third reading, among which
were the following.
Bill in relation to the enrolment
by townships and counties of per-
sons who rendered military and naval
services in the Confederate States.
Bill to allow farm products to be

are TO De pslo - per uay.
In reference to County Treasurers
provides: THAT the County Treas
urer in each of the counties of the
State shall receive the same salary as
that paid to the County Auditor Of
such county, the salary of such
Treasurer to be paid by the State
and the county, in the same proper
ton as that of the County Auditor.
That in addition to the salary so pro-
vided for, each of the County Treas
urers of the State shall be entitled to
charge of delinquent taxpayers so
cents for each tax execution issued
against such delinquent, such fee not
to be charegable against the county.
The Legislative appropriation bill
came up. Mr.. Moses wanted TO pay
the acting sergeant-at-arms S25.
Mr.. E6rd opposed the apprqpria-
tion and urged that the sergeant-at-
arms should pay the money out OF
the 5000 given him for his salary.
Mr.. E6rd moved to take the money
out Of the permanent salary Mr..
Moses said the sergeant was sick
and needed the money more than
ever. The amendment to pay the
acting sergeant.at-arms S25 was
adopted.
The House then took up the calen-
dar in the regular order and disposed
of the special orders.
The bill to require the county
board of examiners to appoint the
teachers of the county summer
schools was sent to the Senate after
an Intellectual effort was made to re-
commit the bill.
A futter of excitement was raised
by the introduction of a resolution
providing for the appointment of
committee of three to wait upon the
Governor to find out if our United
States Senators had resigned and
what had become of their resigna-
tions and to make such report as
they seem fit under the circumstances.
The resolution was continued.
NIGHT SESSION.
The House at the night session
killed the bill to limit the number of
hours of labor in cotton mills; also
the bills 10 provide for State de-
positories Of public funds, and to re-
quire Solicitors to attend Coroner's
inquests.
The Senate bill to allow the con-
solidation of certain railroads so that
the Southern may lease them, was
given it's second reading.
The committee appointed to in7es-
tieate the wretched condition of the
State house made it's report, which
was satisfactory.
The bill to validate an election for
intendant and four wardens for the
town of White Rock in Lexington
county, was given second reading.
The bill providing for a constitu-
tional amendment as to abandoning
township organizations to get out of
paying certain railroad bonds, passed
it's third reading.
After the introduction of pream-
bles and resolutions in reference to
the old cotton claims growing out of
the war of 1861, the House ad-
iourned.
SENATE.
The feature of the session was
Senator Standards vehement denu-
citation of the State Board of Dis
pensary Directors, in which he
charged mismanagement and extra
vagance. He said there WAS now
over 100000 worth of dead stock
on hand in the State dispensary. A
bill passed its third reading forbid
ding the Directors from buying
liquors except upon a requisition of
the State Commissioner.
