NEWBERRY, S. 'C. WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 1, 1665. Gov. Ferrys Xesage Came to hand too late for ti-1sissue. It will appear in our next. It is an able document. - Errata. In the article, "A visit to Holiday HonEe," in last week's paper, for 'ormulo,' read ormolu; for isenato,' read sonatas; for 'LuslinL,' read Lur line; for 'enbonpoint', i-ead embompoint. E Another Company. We are pleased to state that Capt. T. W. Gary I-,s organized I company,'under the late procla mation of Gov. Perry, in that portion of New berry district comprising the 38th Regt. Capt. Gary we know to be an efficient officer, and who will do good service. He is no -o ng general instructions, but in the meantimriolng a whole some patrol duty. J. F. Flo% d, D, C. Davis, and T. J. Moffett are the Lieutenants. "The'Iotiine" come. As next Monday will be sales-day, and no large number of our citizens will come to town, we think-that occasion a very approfRate one to pay as a visit. We give a cordial and general .invitation to all, .to everybody, in the hope that we nhyinterest them and advantage oursplves. Some few there are, and only a-fewRve are--hap -py to say, who*are indebted to us, and only so by their positivo promise to pay up, about th's time- ter crop gathering. We look f6r them now. The promise las but slipped tleir memo ry, it could not, like tlgoodhouse-wife's "pie-. crust" have been "made. but to be broken." We are satisfied then that a gbnt!e hint is. all suffi gient, and that the few who are cn the shady side, will come out from the dark, paj up and bask in the'sunshine of our countenance. OtLbe7s again will remember that the period for which they subscribed is expiring, and a few are o-u-t, and that if they wish-to continue on our.books,'!they must renew in time. And no better time than the present ean present itself, either. for renew ing, or commencing a subscription. The' pro ceedings of the Legislature, now in session, will be full of interes, and every one should know what is going on in that body. To be -posted 'in thie. it is only necessary to secure a paid right to the Herald, for three or six months as the6ase may. be. Look to it in time. Subscriptions will be received in ilmost any kind of truck, in Cur rency orin Apecie ; so there need .be no excuse for borrowing your neighbors paper,. or remain ing in ignorance altogether.'- - SWe don't like it. - But have to grin and bear it, sometimes how ever we are tempted to say "lightning rods," l'pitch-forks," or something elg, which .is deci cedly better thma.n swearing, a very filthy and ugly Tractice by the way.

Oh.no, it is he who will not pay for one of his own, who thinks its that much saved if he can borrow his neighbor's paper ; its not stealing, far from it. We -sineerely comamis serate that man's condid~on who cannot take and pay for a paper!-and there are- so many we are sorry,- very, and wvill do all for them that is inout pow'er. Call therefore and give in your names.
