An Old Doctor's Advice,
It was this: Trust in God and your bowels open." For this purpose many an old doctor has advised the habitually costive to take Kidney-Wort—for no other remedy so cffctually overcomes this condition, tyid that without the distress and griping which other medicines cause. It is a radical cure for pilefi. Don't fail to use it.
Handsome Mantel*.
Another lot of handsome mantels wtas received by Moore, at 688 Main street, last week, which everybody who conteta* plates buying mantels should call and see, as they are the latest styles and handsomest patterns that have been manufac tured and are really the finest that have ever been brought to the city.

The Reason
The tonic effect of Kitiney-fabrt Is pro-' dmed'by its cleansing and purifying action on the blood. "Where there is a gravelly deposit in the urine, or milky, ropy urine from disordered kidneys, it cures withont fail. Constipation and

John MacDon
aid to-day received an important disputation on the subject of the Canadian tariff from the Manchester Chamber of Commerce, representing the whole of Lancashire industries. Sir John, in replying to the gentleman, said the tariff had been adjusted on the principle to cucourajge English imports by placing heavier duties on American goods, but that Englishmen were prejudiced, and ignored Canada's peculiar situation, as regards the United States. American rings and corners had completely crushed all attempts to introduce manufactures in Canada, and would have continued to do so, unless Canada, by her new tariff, had not endeavored to prevent it. The new tariff had already forced the Americans to clamor for a reciprocal treaty, which previously had been contemptuously refused. If England wanted reciprocal privileges, she must give something in return. With countervailing duties in the English mar kets. Canada could always afford to makten per cent, difference against English and other foreign goods. In conclusioh Sir John said thathe^lid not think that there was any immediate chance for at reduction of tariff, but he would willingly receive and suggestions and remedy any proved injustice.

a
found that young men from 15 to 20 years of age marry young women averting two or three years older than themselves bat, if they delay marriage until they are 20 or 25 years old, their spouse averages a yoar younger than themselves and henceforward this difference steadily increases, till in extreme old age. on tbe bridegroom's part, it is apt to be enormous. The inclination of octogenarians to wed misses in their teens is an eveiy-day occnrence, but ft is amosing to find, in tbe love-matches of boys, that the statistics bear oat the sabres of Thackeray and Balzac.

^pIANA V. U. I's.'
BLWrrow, 4ND., August 5.—This is the seat of Welts Comity tnillwtek notorious for its itoiHfii IJ^mQWsktiic ^pabilities and doings. BluStoa is a place of over 8,000 inhabitants, i»ut the spirit displayed by some of'it&hot-headOdDemocrats aoet not invite a flow Of people into our midst The citizens here have read much about the atrocities committed by the Ku-Klux of the South and the flbrrOrs of Yazoo, yet they (at least the moral, law abiding citizens) have not suspected, up to within a few days^ at least, that there would be anything of that sort done here. Lately, however, the tiot blood w^itih has courseq the veins of the unterrifled has bubbled a little too high, and work has really commenced on theYazOo plan.
Several of our icitifen? have^ received notices, iropi the determined Democrats to part with the negroes they detain, and to "do itd——d quick."
A card, on ^hich was written the following, was deceived by W. Waterman, a respected colored barber of this city, a few days since:
:i
"You had better git your little band of negroes together and skip. Your room is better than your company.
Warning! V. U. Q."
Joseph Humphrey, owning some property occupied by colored people, received a card, a#«f©Mw ,V WAR»JKJ, ,V .-R "Mr. Hum^l'ey, you 11 id l»otter get them negroes out ox your building and save trouble. By owl^r of V.U.O.
The proprietor of the Oontral Hotel, Mr. R. Rossington, received a card of warning advising him to ri& his house of his colored cook, and save trouble, J. B. Plessinfcer, Sheriff, part tfWnor of the hotel, has also received a card of warning in reference to retaining colored cook.
This is a true statement of the affairs here now, without color or exaggeration. For twenty years Bluffton has been without negroes, the Democratic ^population always driving them out. Within, the past two or three years, however, one or two colored men were allowed to come in. The only ones here to-day'are the Waterman brothers, barbers. They are nearly white are quiet, peaceable citizens, ana good Republicans. They live and cook at the hotel, and constitute the "culled population" of this 'Democratic strong-
Saturday night last the correspondent met another cokre'd fnan, who Wiw in (he enaplOy of the Watetirtan Brothers, but 1 learn this morning that he departed last night. He .assigned, aa his cause, for leaving that, during the few days that he was here, he was insulted evefry time he went on the street.
The first colored child that was ever born in this coiinty Was presented to Henry WHtertTTHT) few days ago—a daughter.
When depredations will be commenced By therfe YaZOoans is only qufestioh of time, -Should they be jpe*mitted to continue in "their fury. The town and city are considerably stirred up oyer the outlook. A march on the unmindful by the K-K. K. Is expcctcd every rlght.
A Wife's Frugality.
The wife of the man next door has a fertile brain which is kept actively employed in a variety of directions. Among ner household goods area dozen plants in pots, anil a variety of these aire In a box mounted on a pedestal. The box she got at the store the pedestal she and the bov together made. After it was done she wanted it painted.
She might have dent it to the painter for that purpose, but he would charge more than it was' worth. To save the extra cost, she determined to do the work herself. She could get a pound of paint all mixed in a pot, with a brush, for twenty cents—the pot and brueli to be returned after the work was done. It was a simple thing to paint, and she could put it on as easily and nicely as a trained hand could do it. The man next door didn't think much about it. It was not in his line, but he got the paint.
It was a great surprise to the wife of the man next door to see how little of the paint was required to color the box and pedestal, anu how much was left after the work was done. What should she do with it? Not return it, of course, for she would not be allowed anything for it. Now that she had it she might as well use it. There was undoubtedly something it could be used on.
She looleed around for the obiect in question, and was not long in finding it. There are more or less dingy, battered articles about a house which a coat of paint will improve. Her house was no exception. Her eyes lighted on a box holding her scouring sand. In a few moments it was a delightful green.
Then she looked around for other fields to conquer, and presently she found them, find continued to find them as long as the presence of paint made it necessary to search for them. She was nearly the whole afternoon using up that pot of paint, but it was time well employed.
And it was amazing, as she admitted to herself, bow for twenty cents' worth of paint would go' Judiciously applied. She knew her husband would be surprised when he came home at night at All she had done.
And he was. When he observed use green nockcase, and looked at the green paper-rack, and found that he had a green writing desk, and contemplated the green footstool, and saw the green coal scuttle, and got against the -green clothes-horse, he was too full to say a word.
Then he picked up his green bootjack, Mid when be aid that he gave a wild soared look about the room, sank down in a chair and found his voice.
He said Holy fish hooks!"
An exchange inquires we do at table?" Why,
"WBit shall eat, man, eat,
