Any person having these num bers, or either of them, will be liberally compensated on bringing the sa ne to this office. The Pension Act recently passed by Congress gives a pension to all soldiers of the War of .1812 who served fourteen days, or were in any engagement, and to the sur viving widows of such soldiers, no matter when married. No proof of loyalty is required. This Act also restores to the pension rolls the names of all persons surviving, who were pensioned for services in the War of 1812 or in any of the Indian Wars, and whose names were stricken from the rolls at the commencement of the late war. No proof of loyalty is required. THE VOTING PREcINcTs.-The Leg islature has just passed an Act en. titled "An Act to establish by Law the Voting Precincts in the Various Counties in this State." The pre cincts in Fairfield are as follows : Winnsboro, Jenkinaville, Monticello, Peasterville, Yonguesville,. Glad den's Grove, Durham, Bidgeway, Horeb Churcb, B3lythewood and Bear Creek. It .will be seen that we have nnw eleven precincts, in.. stead of ten as formerly. The new precinct is Bear Creek. The people in that section have long wanted a convenient voting prooinct, and the Act just passed gives it. Section 2 of tha Act p1'eman i 'n.i ...j precinct in this Act shall be con atrued to embrace an area sufficient to provide for holding elections for members of Congress and Pr(sidloii tial electors at difforont stations from those stations where elections are hold for State and county o-i~ cers." THE Nzw COLUMDIA PA.-Wo have received the first number of the Straighout Democrat, the new tri-weekly just started in Columbia. The business management is in charge of Mr. Julian A. Selby, a journalist of long experience, whilo the editorial department is con ducted by Major Henry S. Farley, a gentleman of acknowledged abili ty. The paper will be run on arictly "straightout" principles, op posing all compromises and con cessions. Of its attitude towards the present administration, the .Democrat says: The man that circulated the re port that the Straighitout Democrat was to oppose the present adminis tration, has lied. So long as buck shot can be bought at fifteen cents a pound, we will hold oursolve3 personally responsible for this and all other statements that may bo made in theso columns. We ha*d ith honor of serving General Hampton in time of war and danger, and lie knows that we can be counted on now. If, however, occasion demands, we shall criticise the Governor without reserve. We can afford it, and lie can stand it. Governor Hampton has about as little respect for a "boot-lick" or a "flunky" as we have. The paper is now issued tri weely, but a daily edition is promised when the campaign opens. We extend a welcome to the .Demo crat, and wish it aill prosperity. Building and Loan Association.

There is a curious story about some native wines which are extensively advertised nowa days, and have only recently been put upon the market. Dr. Underhill, the well-known grape-grower of Croton Point, died in 187r. Some of his heirs entertained temperance views of such extreme kind, that they were unwilling to allow the stock of wines then on hand to be sold or any more to be made. The grapes have sometimes been sent to market, and sometimes left to decay upon the vines. It is only now that the other heirs have succeeded in arranging for a settlement of the estate and the sale of the wines on hand. Among these is a wine of the vintage of z864, described as a "Sweet Union Port," but suggesting the Imperial Tokay more than any other European wine, and being wholly unlike any other wine of American growth. Its purity, age and -nellowness are remarkable, and both physicians and wine fanciers have a special interest in it as the oldest native wine now accessible in any con siderable quantity. The whole stock is in the hands of the wel-known wholesale grocery house of the Thurbers.-N. Y Triune, Nov. 19, z6'q. The above speaks for itself, but we would add (hat this is the pure juice of the grape, neither drugged, liquored nor watered; that it has been ripened and mellowed by age, and for medicinal or sacramental purposes it is unsurpassed. It can be obtained from most of the leading Druggists throughout the United States, and at wholesale from the undersigned, who will forward descriptive pamphlet, free of charge, on application, Respectfully, etc., H.
