No one denies the fact tbat Wallace

Orangeburg. Iiis large crowd of cus

give him a call when on a visit to the

anything one wants can be bad at. his
store.
J. Wallace Cannon received a

We had the pleasure of witnessing a

PREPARE FOR WINTER?
Don't let the cold winds ofwuiter

their paint not to crack, peel or fade.
Any one can apply it.
It is thought by some that the offi
ces of County Auditor and Treasurer
will be made elective. If every coun
ty in this State were as well suited as
ovirs is in this respect, there would be
no necessity lor this. Our Treasurer
and Auditor are pre-eminently the men
for the positions which they occupy,
and it is our opinion that if their con
tinuance in office were left to the peo
ple, tbat no change would be made.
Mr. T. W. Alhcrgotti is receiving

unexcelled. Call on him t! you want

I A meeting of the taxpayers of

Hvmft'wf, That in the opinion of this
meeting, the taxes threatened to be
imposed lipon the people of South
Carolina by the bill now pending in

should be sternly resisted by an op
pressed and outraged people.
J'e&ih ed, That the Delegation from
Orangeburg county be, nnd are here
by called Upon to use every effort t.o

The South Carolina Confererce.
Mr. Editor :?A. largo body of
Ministers will meet in Conference at
this place on ?Vcdriesdny next
Decemocr 15th. The citizens gener
ally have shown gtcnt willingness to
lid in entertaining the delegates, and
wheu they could do so, we be live have
opened their doors for this purpose.
I suppose at least forty or fifty
Ministers, connected with the differ
cut committies, will be. here on Satur
day, by day or night train. We re
gret the necessity that lions so many
to reach here by *'ie Columbia mid
night train, but it is wholly unavoid
able. The delegate.) Would be forced
to lie over in Columbia nnd pay a
hotel bill and oniunibus fare and leave
home twenty-four hours earlier to
make this place by the day (rain on
Saturday. The .same difficulty will
confront them Tuesday 14th. The
great majority of the delegates there
fore will arrive ben? by night train on
Sat unlay and Tue-dav next. This
notice is due the friends who oiler us
assistance in their entertainment. All
that we would suggest, is. that those
families looking for company put
themselves to as little trouble as poss
ible, by simply keeping a lamp burn
ing so that t he delegates may he shown
their room without undue disturbance
to the household.
I There will be a lecture in thcMetho
j di.-t Church, before I he Historical

Dr. J. Mile-; 11 unter has made a
specialty of the treatment of Cancers,
Tumors, Cbronic, 1 "leers, Scrofula,
Female Diseases*, Szpbilis, Dropsy,
Liver Diseases? Skin Disease, and all
other Chronic affections, and his suc
cess in this line of practice has been
a most wonderful event in the His
tory of modern medical practice. His
treatment of cancers and tumors, is
somewhat eccentric as iticy arc re
moved and cured without Iho use of
the knife, without the loss of blond,
and with but little pain to Hie patient.
Having given his undivided attention
to these special diseases and having a
daily practice of large exent, it. is
reasonable to suppose that ho is bet
ter informed as to the proper mode of
treatment necessary for a perfect cure,
than most of the medical professors
ordinarally. Wc know of several in
stances in this immcdiact section of
the country where be hits effected per
manent cures of cancers and
diseases peculiar to females, and
the large number of certificates in his
possession speak for themselves
praise for the Doctor.
From tho increased practice in this
Stato, l?r. Hunter has opened an office
at Marion So. Ca., and nil! bo there
every Friday and Saturday, and at
Suniter every Monday, Tuesday and
