After the case had been called by the magistrate a warm dispute oc- curred between the police attendants in court, and Mr. Sexton, a member of parliament and high sheriff of Dublin, arising from the desire of the latter to place thecity sword and mace before the magistrate. The po- lice attempted to prevent the placing of the city emblems on the table, whereupon Mr. Sexton and other municipal officers seized the sword and attempted to place it there by force. The police and municipal officers struggled for the possession of the sword while the spectators in the gallery cheered Mr. Sexton and exhorted him to “hold on.” After a few minutes both sides desisted and > Genntue’unlocs beari Scamp, | after a parley, a compromise was ef- MES MEANS’ fected and the sword was placed on ih the magistrate’s bench.

It is interesting to note that the fruit and vegetable crop raised in the vicinity of Charleston, a large portion of which is shipped to the North, is valued at $895,000. The city has been thoroughly repaired, $4,294,000 having been expended in improvements during the year, and is stauncher and better looking now than it was before the earthquake. The spirit of enterprise in the state keeps pace with improvement in the city. The cotton crop for the pres- ent year is estimated at 600,000 bales, the corn crop at 17,000,000 bushels, wheat 1,588,000 bushels, oats 4,141,- 000 bushels, and rice 69,700,000 pounds. The state and its chief city are prosperous, and the whole country rejoices to know it. Itisa quality of vigorous and daring peo- ples to rise after disasters and ex- hibit powers which they themselves had hardly suspected before—and the history of the last twenty years proves the populations of our South- ern states possess a full share of this manly attribute. The first steamboat on western waters was the Orleans, built and launched at Pittsburg in 1811. She made her first trip that year, going down the Ohio and thence down the Mississippi to Natchez, Mississippi. During her trip her pilot had great difficulty in finding a safe channel in the Mississippi, owing to an earth- quake which at that time violently shook up the valley and the river and changed the current and the shore lines of the latter. This was the earth- quake which destroyed New Madrid, Mo. **Oh, wad some power, the giftie gie us, To see ourselves as ithers see us!’” Few women want to appear sick, and yet how many we see with pain written on every feature, who have been suffering tor months froin te- male weakness, and who could eas- ily cure themselves by the use ot Dr. Pierce’s ‘‘Wavorite Prescrip- tion,’’ to be tound at any drug store.

There is only one way tocure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deatness is caused by an inflamed con= dition of the mucus lining ot the Eusta- chian Tube. When this tube gets in- flamed, you have a rumbling sound,or impertect hearing, and when it is entire- ly closed deafness is the result, and un- less the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal con- dition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases our of ten are caused by ca- tarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucns surfaces.
