TO THOSE WHO OWE FOR
THE VINDICATOR.
We want every subscriber who
is m arrears, to come promptly
to our office and settle up their
indebtedness. If you owe but
one dollar come and pay it. We
must have money before the 20th
of August to meet our own obli- j
gations, and we depend only on
those who are indebted for sub
scriptions to aid us. This is
plain, please act at once.
ttfCuioN & Mill have just jteuived a
fresh supply of goods from the nirth. i'ron.
the dull appearance of our streets ono would
hardly suppose Ihey could nead such frequent
u-iuiitioits to keep 11 their stock, but so it is.
(3 Cotton is looking up. Twenty-six
rents per pound is now being offered for it in
advance, on the growing crop. We nee by
rur exchanges that the prosjicct is good in the
Kouth for an average yield, and, if it should
io turnout, money will lw plenty in the cot
on States by another year.
y The cloud have been promising rain
for nearly week, but as yet have given us
the go by.
It never Tilled to rain lu re after n drought,
nid so we still have f.iith. As I'atuk k Mus
ky saiil, " we have no way to judge tho future
Kilt by the past. VV hope all our exchanges
on't copy this joke.
43f We hd the pleasure of meeting Hon.
O.ai mis 'JVumu on Friday, who, as our
n aders will remember j edited h paper in our
village before the war. )to is rl'i a member
.I the" South Carolina legislature. We leani
from iiini that Spartanburg county has recent
ly befn visiU-d with a heavy freshet, which
lias done considerable damage to both laud
And erps.
sj'l'he eclipse of tUv mo whkh will occur
.n the ?th, lit aboHl fivfl oVloeV in the even
ing, will be well worth looking at ; but peo
ple should look through a smoked glass, th-
rwiso there is great danger of injuring the
yes. Congress appropriated several thousand
dollars to enable si i ntilic men to view tliis
relipse from different parts of the country, and
it may bo expected they will give in much
new information on the subject of eclipses.
A Swindle. A few weeks icc a. certain
Dr. I); T. Taylor come to S. Hitc h ell's in
Mont ford' Cove, reporting that he had had
has horse stolen and was out of funds. Me
remained there two or three weeks, ingratia
ted himself into the favor of Mr. Mitchell
nd others, and was getting into a good prac
tice as a physician Finally he sold checks
to the amount of $330 to Mr. J., bought a
hors5 which be did not pay for, and left for
parts unknown. The checks had been sent
him, doubt lens by a confederate, and of course
were protested. Hand him round, and watch
out for the clan, of whom there is doubtless
u good number traveling mound.
Ijsy Attention is called to the Advertise
ment of Jr. Walker who will pay highest
prices for Old Bank Notes.
JJow to 1VEEP Uool. A he loliowing
pimple hint from the Scientific American
can, are useful to remember durinjr the
warm weather of the present season :
" lie Sparing in your diet, which
should consist principally of fruits, ber
ries and vegetables. Avoid everything
of a greasy catnre ; also spices, condi
ments and streets. Drink nothing but
water. Chew nothing but food ; chew
that well,' but do not chew too much ot
it. Excess in eating is ono of the prin
cipal causes Of that lazy, listless, relax
ing feelings experienced by so many
persons in hot weather. Dress .lightly,
and change often. Wear nothing at
night which iJ worn during the day.
Bathe body every morning with cool or
Cold water. Keep n clean conscience
ns Well as body and clean clothing, and
don't get excited. If uiic6mibrta
blv warm at any time, immerse the
hands, or feet, or both, in cold water
for a short time, or let a stream of cold
water run upon the wrists and ankles.
This will cool the whole body in a short
time."
Tdk Bars? Bcbxing in Orange. The
HilUboro Recorder has the following in
relation to the barn burning in Orango
county on Friday night last:
On Friday night last throe of the
hardest working farmers of our section
were reduced to poverty by the torch of
the incendiary. The barn of Franklin
Minor with 700 shocks of wheat, of Jes
se Morrow with 6l0 shocks of wheat
no telling the amount of oats, besides a
a mare aud two flue mules that were
destroyed and the barn of Wm. Jones
with about 800 shocks of wheat ma
chino everything. All were on fire at
the 6ame time, aud the distanoj was
about throo miles apart.

For Family use, and the Medical Pro
fession, " Bininger' s Old London Dock
Gin" is now cnuorscd by prominent physi
cians, chemists and connoisseurs, a possessing
all those intrinsic medicinal qualities (tonic
ami diuretic) which belong to an old and pure
gin. The Chemical Journal and Medical Gazette
says of it: "The writer must remark that
Messrs. A. M. Bininoer &c Co., 15 Beaver
Street, New York, merit the gratitude of the
entire medical profession, as well as the world
at large, for having introduced a stimulant of
such unexceptionable purity and unequivocal
Kwcr, both as a preventive and curativo
agent, and a harmless cxhilarative beverage."
Mere is what tho New York Frtss says of
tho Biningers :

a very high reputation to sustain as the oldest

The Memphis Convention.
From the Courier-Journal.J
The convention at Memphis for ob
taiuing Chinese labor got through its
business on Thursday and adjourned.
Its work is said to h ive been satisfac
torily done. The Mississippi Valley
Immigration Labor Company, with a
capital stock of SI, 000,000, to be in
creased to double that amount in shares
of $100 each, was organized, and $50,-
000 was subscribed ou the spot.
Thus tho Chinese movement i3 fairly
initiated in the Valley of the Missis
sippi. It is entered upon under cir
cumstances that cauuot fail to give it a
strong impetus. Tho times are prop -tious.
Tho disposition of the peoplo i
favorable. Labor is disorganized, and
laborers are demoralized. Employers
nro tyranized over by tho employed.
They are prepared to give the fullest
trial ti whatever holds out the promise
of relief. We have not long to wait to
see tho pending experiment in its in
cipient stages. In kss than sixty days
the Asiatics will bo showing what they
can do. If the result be a success, it
will mark the beginning of a new era
iu the history of our continent.
To say nothing of the vastly impor
tant labor in the fields, innuaierublo
families in Kentucky as well as in
other iStates havo been and are now
su.icring extreme inconvenience for
tho want of the right kind of female
house servants. It is hard to obtain
those that are worth having, and often
impossiblo to keep them when they
have been obtained. Ladies keeping
house are in a constant state of annoy
ance. Not un frequently they are con
strained to do their own drudgery for
weeks together, to say nothing of the
insolenco to which they are compelled
to submit. To sucli persons Chinese
domestics, if as quiet, as docile, as obe
dieut, as faithful, and as industrious as
they are represented to be. will prove
invaluable. Undoubtedly they have
their faults, which we shall all discover
soon enough if wo employ them, but
we trust, that, if a change shall bo
made, tho new order of things will
turn out less insufferable than the old
has do'tie.
We havo all hoard so much about
the cheapness of Chinese labor that
upon this subject we shall undoubtedly
experience considerable disappoint'
nieut. Capable of living at an incred
ibly small expense, the Chinese can
afford to work for exceedingly small
wages, but they are shrewd, money
loving, and almost miserly, and they
will be sure to get for their work all
tho money thoy can. If they do not
kuiw, when they first come among us,
what comp n sat ion their labor can be
made to command, they will not be
long iu learning all about it and turn
ing their knowledge to the best advan
tage. If at any timef in any locality,
or in all localities, labor shall be in ex
cess of the demand for it, the Chinese
will underwork the negroes, Germans,
Irish, &c, but still they will be satis-
tied with nothing else, than the best
terms they can get. They will sell
their labor to those who bid highest.
Our conclusion is that the immigra
tion of Chinese labor will bring very
speedily a reduction of the price of
labor, but not so great a ono as we
have been accustomed to expect. And
possibly we nave been expecting a
greater reduction than would be for
the pnblic good. Matters will adjust
themselves.

"Mr. Showman," said a green-horn at

During a thunder storm at New-
borne, Tuesday, the lightning struck

over board and nearly drowned before
rescued.
Unprecedented Yield. Doctor C.
J. Powell, of Orange County, Va., from
eight bushels of wheat seeded out upon
one acre and a half of land, with 1,000
pounds of guano, has realized 210
bushels. This is said to be without
precedent anvwhere on the Atlantic
slope.
Newberne has been visited by one
of those remarkable tornadoes and
lightning storms but seldom seen on
the Atlantic coast. Several houses
were set on fire by the lightning, and
a steamer badly injured.
Doing Well. We are rejoiced to
hear that the cotton crop along the line
of the Wilmington, Charlotte andRuth

well, having been greatly improved by
late rains. It is thought now the

Important Decision. We learn that
the Supreme Court has decided in the
case of Martin vs. McMillan, that a
note given by an agent of the late Con
federacy, for mules purchased in the
military service, is founded on an ille
gal consideration and no judgment can
be rendered thereon.
A St. Louis dispatch dated the 23d
