Carolina Compared with the
rtioni ^Southwestern States.
"HBditor of the Rural Carolinian:?With
giAin persons there prevails an idea that
tha^ijjthwestcrn States offer a much bet
ter opening to young men than the older
States. '? Having left the home of my
ood, and sojourned for fifteen years
OnC of the most fertile sections of the
SouthwesU I may be pardoned for otter
ing a leW suggestions to any who may be
on the verge of emigrating from this
their native State, to try the uncertain
tt$fp-/of what they suppose to be a better
country. < JMy experience lias been, that
faVrairig is much surer/ of success here
<lVfe&'lh'ere. All a man needs here is a
plenty of energy and a determination to
""Wfifceed, and without these qualities he
will not succeed anywhere.
TJ( ( The .djstoters to which the crops nro
subject arc much more numerous there
than here. The expenses of carrying on
a farm; nfrejmuch heavier. The yield of |
of a crop for a term of years is much less
uniform there tbau here. When there is
a good crop made it is more shan can be
gathered, but this is cx'seldom occurrnncc.
When there is a failure it is an entire
; ?o'flfc.'"' Here we are sure of making sonic
thing ?yry year, be it ever so little. Here
line have health, good water, and passable
^Yo?dB'- in winter. There more or less
sickness (generally more); muddy lime
water, and?well, is no adjective that
will convey any idea of the roads in winter.
Ifaman intends to work himself in his
farm, he will find it much more trying to
his health and constitution there than
hers. Vegetation grows very luxuriant
ly, nnd the dews are so heavy that one
can seldom go on foot, in a field in the
iorenoOn, without becoming drenched.
Many of the old settlers carry quinine in
their pockets and take a dose every
morning the year round. I worked in
my farm there and it gave me chronic
chills, from which I suffered for three
years. The doctors gave me so much qui
nine that it nearly destroyed my bearing
and quite destroyed a good portion of my
earnings.*
Young men, take my advico, pull ofTj
your coats, roll up your sleeves, take hold
of the plough and hoc handles, and quit
thinking about "going west" to try to
' imike a living easily for there is simply
no such^thing possible. "By the sweat
ofthyHwow'shalt thou cat bread."

Spools Out for Drought this Summer.
v' v>Wemay look out for drought every
season, and shall seldom look nttogethcr
in vain, but the present spring up to this
time has, in most parts of the country,
been marked by frequent rains, and a wet
spring js likely to be followed by a dry
summer? * ,t!\Vhat can we about it?" do
^ysu nsk? Keep the soil well stirred and
pur, crops vigorous by clean cultivation,
our hands were properly prepared he
re'planting, wc have the means in our
hands of protecting our crops against all
moderate droughts. The bad farmer
snfiers every year, either from drought or
from too much moisture, and, generally,
from both. Such "bad luck" is sure to
follow him, from year to year, till he
shall mend his ways and learn a more
rational system of farming.?Rural Cnr

Fried Chicken.
All people who arc fond of fried chick
en?and who is not?ought to know that
a tahlespoouful of powdered JSTox Voinica
mixed in a pint of corn meal (dry)
thoroughly nnd feed to the chicks, is
death, certain to hawks. The first thing
the hawk does is to pull out the craw ttml
eat it, nnd he is certain to get a dose.
it a hawk kills a chicken and partly
devours it, ifybn can find it and dust a
little strychnine upon it, you will have
him safe. I have caught several in that
Wfcy. Re careful to mix the Nox Vomica
powder well through the menl and not

Iii order that our patrons may be kept fully informed relative to the security and progress of
the Company, on which thousands arc greatly relying for the future welfare of the families,; we
take pleasure in submitting the foregoing statement, which we trust may bo an satisfactory to
them as it is gratifying to us. ? ?
During the year 1873, the income of the Company was $1,043,249,70. whilst the total outgo
of the Company for the same period was $529,000,41, leaving the net inoomc for the year $1,UA-,
183,29, augmenting the assets of the Company to $2,248,020,35, January .1st, 1874. fhc% entira
liabilities of the Company, at same date, embracing the reserve on policies in force and losses
reported and maturing, amounts to $1,70,943,385. which, deducted from assets, leaves a surplus,
as to policy-holders, of $304,040,09.
In view of the monetary panic during the four last months of the past year, at a time, too,
when our receipts should be the largest, it is a source of satisfaction to the management and a
gratifying evidence of confidence of our patrons, that tha Company is among the few that shows
increase of business and assets. Commencing the past success of the Company as an earnest of
continued prosperity, we earnestly solicit the cooperation of our patrons in extending our business
and usefulness A. II. COLQUITT, Vice President.

i Dr. .T. Walker's California Vin
egar Ritters aro a purely Vcgetablo
preparation, made- ehiolly from the sia
tivo horbs found on tbo lower ranges of
tho Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor
nia, tbo medicinal properties of which
arc extracted therefrom without tbo uso
of Alcohol. Tho question is almost
daily asked, "What is tho.causo of tho
unparalleled success of Vixkgar Bit
TEitS?" Our answer is, that they remove
tbo cause of disease, arid tbo patient re
covers his health. They aro the great
blood purifier and a lifo-giving principle,
a perfect Renovator and Invigorator
of tbo system. Nover before in ibo
history of tho world has a medicinu been
compounded possessing tho remarkablo
qualities of Vixkgar Bittkrs in healing tho
sick of ovcry disease man is heir to. They
aro a gcutlo Purgative as well as a Tonic,
relieving Congestion or Inilanmiatinn of
tho Liver and Visceral Organs in Bilious
Diseases
The properties of Dit. Walker's
Vinegar Bittkrs aro Aperient, Diaphoretic,
Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic,
Sedative, Counter-irritant Sudorific, Altera
tive, and Anti-Bilious.
Grateful Thousands proclaim Vin
egar Bitters tbo most wonderful In
vigorant that ever sustaiucd tu? sinking
system.
No Person ran take these Ritters
according to directions, and remain long
unwell, provided their bones aio not de
stroyed by mineral poison or other
moans, and vital organs wasted beyond

Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, .Savannah, Ito
nnokc,'?James, and many others, with
their vast tributaries, throughout our
entire country during tho Summer and
Autumn, and remarkably so din ing sea
sons of unusual beat and dryncss; aro
invariably accompanied by extensive de
rangements of the stomach and liver,
and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow
erful influence upon these various or
gans, is essentially necessary. There
is no cathartic for the purpose equal to
Du. J. Walkkk'h Vinegar Bittkus,
as they will speedily remove the dark
colored viscid matter with which the
bowels are loaded, at the same time
stimulating the .secretions of the liver,
and generally restoring tbo healthy
functions of the digestive organs.

Swellings. Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled Neck,

In these, as in ail other constitutional Dis
eases, \V.w.ki:u's ViXKOAtt IlrrrKHS have
shown tlu-ir great curative powers in tho
most obstinate and intractablu cases.
For Inflammatory hurt Chronic
Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, ltcmit
tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of
tho blood, Liver, Kidnovs and Bladder,
these Bitters have no equal. Sucu Diseases
are caused by Vitiated Blood.

Plumbers, Type-setters, (Sohl-beaters, and

Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors
and Diseases of the Skin of whatever uaino
or naturo, arc literally dug up and carried
out of tho system in a short time by tho uso
of these Hitters.
Fin, Tape, and other Worms,
lurking in tho system of so many thousands,
aro oflcctually destroyed and removed. Xo
System of medicine, no vermifuges, ho an
tholminitics will free the system from worms
like these Hitters.
For Female Complaints, in young
or old. married or single, at the dawn of wo
manhood, or tho turn of life, these Tonic
Bitters display so decided an influence that
improvement is soon perceptible.
Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when
ever you find its impurities bursting through
the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores;
cleanse it when you find it obstructed and
sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is
foul; your feelings will tell von when. Keep
tho blood jmre, and the health of tho system
will follow.
