A number of Advertisements and Notices, in oar hands, we are unavoidably compelled to defer until next week, at which time they shall receive particular attention. An Eighteen Column Supplement. In the midst of an enormous rush of adver tising patronage we strive not to forget thc instruction and entertainment of the many regular subscribers, to whom wo owe such weight of obligation. This week we again send out a Supplement-one much larger than that of last week-containing much useful and inte ruting reading matter. What Mr. Lebechnltz Has To Say For Himself. It is nothing new to be sure, but it is always interesting. In short, Mr. Lebe 8chnitz's attractive advertisement in to days Advertiser cannot fail to meet the eye and rivet the attention of every reader. Mr. Lebeschultz is just back from New York, and brings with him a. Large and Splended Stock. Mr. Lebe schultz"has ever been such a-careful and painstaking Merchant as to deserve high appreciation in any community. Thoro was a shooting affray in Hamburg on Sunday last between Messrs. Wm. Flintand Pleasant Sharpton. There was an old feud between the parties, and on Sunday met, when Sharpton cursed Flint, and the latter theren?)on fired twice at Sharpton, one ball only taking effect, which entered the back of the neck, and which proved fatal. Sharpton li ei on Monday night. Flint, we under stand has been arrested. j I .:We- Continue .Our Walks About Augusta. Come with us, all you Edgeiield peuple, and wo'll have a gay time, and spend our money free." First and foremost to-day well stop into a placo where we will meet with j "A TERRILLE TEMPTATION :"-At Hrs. N. B. Clark's womon will meet with A j Terrible Temptation." But Mrs. Clark's "Ter .rib!.e Temptation" is a vastly different one from Charles Reade's. The novelist tempts women to do very wjoked.and unlawful things, where as Mn. Clark, with refined taste and tact, only tempts them to buy Exquisite Gems of Milli' ?cry-Bonnets, Hats, Fichus, Flowers, Feath ers, Ribbons, Laces, Carls, Braids, and Charm ing Ornaments ia Tortoise-Shell,- Jet and Etruscan Gold. Mrs. Clark is especially ne ted for selling beautiful Curls, Braids and Chignons. Indoed no woman departs out of Mrs. Clark's with an inelegant or untastsfal ar ticle. And if you wish to order from her, without the trouble of going and If oking, you nwy trust her implicitly. Givo ber a hint and she will invariably send you far more lovely things than you could chooso yourself. Mr:i. Clark is just back from New York, and her advertisement in this week's Advertiser la delightfully suggestive. Ladies, do not overlook it.

He is a negro-the coli ed Demosthenes of tho Texas Sena And like a great nianyotber sensible i groes in the South now-a-days, he is ma ifesting and inciting a streng feeling indignation against thc Northern gent men who aie monopolizing all the bi offices in the reconstructed States. 1 has lately been making stump speech throughout the State, in which he h denounced in unmeasured terms of i probation the dapper little fellows wi have come down there from thc Nort and provided themselves with tig pantaloons, gold-headed canes, and chic cn pie," at thc expense of the public, tho excludion of tho horny-handed pla talion laborers, who are better entitl to the spoils. Good for Mr. Caines! Ai abundant evidences of the samo feel? were exhibited at tho Republican Sta Convention lately held in Virginia. D ring an animated but fractious discussk upon a resolution relating to the disti bution of the Federal patronage in tl State, several of the colored delegal advocated its passage on the ground th its adoption would rid the State of tl nordes of weak-kneed, dough-faced ca pet-baggers, half of whom were real] the rottenest of Copperheads." In th Convention tho nativo whites support', their colored brethren in their antagoi ism to tho carpet-baggers but thc latte class had so manipulated the primar meetings that they had a majority of de ogatcs, and consequently summarily vo ed down the resolution which threatene interference with their pretensions. A WHITE'CIEL ET.nrEswiTH -v NEGIM -There is ho accounting for tastes isa adage, and well verified in an instant thai occurred near the town of Winters ville, in this county, a few days sinn A young lady of prepossessing appeal ance, the daughter of a laud-owner intha neighborhood, became enamored with (ol ?fred man that worked near her tithe: place. Like Des h-iii'ma, she swore sb w (?ld have him' and ching to him as anec tioautely'.as cul thc weak "Dessie" to tb swarthy Othello.

Tho maxim that th? voiee of tho people ?8 thu voice of thc divinity, may in mme case?, be open tn doubt, but the testimony of honest ?nd cnlighumcd tnesscs extending through aseries of years, an'i all to thc same purport, i? worthy of credence, ad mits of no question. Upon such testimony the repu tation of IIostetl'.T'S Stomach Bitters as an antidote and cure fir ninny ailments is bused. During the twenty years that il has beon before the world, in numerable preparations intonded to compete with lt, have gone up like rockets, and come down like ex tinguished sticks. Meanwhile thc progress of that Incomparable tonic has been swift and steady-al ways upward and onward like the eaelc's flight. Ita introduction produced a revolution in therapetitict. and it proved to bc one of those salutary revolutions that cannot go bnckwards. To-day Hostetter's Bit ters is one of the most popular remedies in christen dom, ani commands u larger sale than any other mvdicinal preparation, domestic or imported, on this side of the Atlantic. As a cure for dyspepsia, bilious disorders, nervous affections, general debility, and as a preventive of epidemic fevers, it takes precedence of every other remedy. This fact should leach the ambitious country dealers who endeavor to fuist their local abortions on the public in instead, how futile their small attempts to cajole thc community must necessarily be.
