Wednesday, Oc ep 1, 18Y3. The Scientifie American. The "Inier;or" says of this paper: "It is worth to the man of commou seh->l education, twice over more than any rival journAl in the Jnited States. .and it will teach no man to despise the English Language, or to regard less the pursuit of knowledge-for its own sake, and what it will bring." We heartily endorse this just tribute of praise to one'of the best and most in structive papers published. Williamston Female College. The third Collegiate year of this Institution opens on the 6th of Octo ber, and under flattering circumstan ces, as the new College extension is rapidly approaching completion, which with the facilities for accommodation of a much larger number of students. additional room for recitations, a com modious chapel room, and a conven ient library room, etc., will make Wil liamston second to no other College in the State. We learn that the new chapel is expected to be ready for dedi cation on the 19th of November, and, that that occasion will be one of much terest. It -is worthy of notice also, that President Lander has been ena bled to add to his able faculty, the Rev. Samuel A. Weber, who will instruct in Greek, Belles-Lettres and Natural Sciences. One week from this dat, the Ses sion opens. and if any of our readers contemplate sending their daughters or wards to Williamston. we'advise that they proceed to wake ready at once. The Granges. . Offieial reports show that the whole number of Cranges thus far known and accounted for is six thousand and oier. The rapidity with which the movement has grown shows its popu larity, and judging from the past, it will not be long ere the entire agri cultural strength of this yast country is absorbed in the 'organization, and iuealculable benefit accrue from it. One of the great causes operating against agriculture has been and is to a great extent, the ignorance relating to it. This will no longer be the case. A broad and wide intelligence will be dissemminated through this means,and farmers will realize that to be success ful in agricultural pursuits, requires a knowledge of what thejare engaged in. There is hardly any other calling which requires mord thorough study. iand taining. Tho science whi2h will enable a man to make two blades of grass grow where now he only obtains one,to miaka one acre produce what la is on)ly now realizing from two, is not to be despised. A thie>retical idea of this has long existed, bet practically, it has not been worked out except in a very limited way. Now, however, it will be altogether different, book learn ing, and information from good news papers,. will not be the despised things. as shown in the past. All this and more will be the' legitimate fruits of this association of aigricultural inter ests. No where else does science pay more than in the soil. It is unneces sary now to look at this movement from any other standpoint. As it grows in strength, and numbers and imiportanee, great developments will be manifested. The Money Panie. It is to be hoped that the financial crash has reached~ its crisis, and that merited confidence will soon be restor ed to the- monetary world. A large number of failures and suspensions have been reported since our last issue. Up to last Friday the prospect was anything but pleasant. Sever:d pri vate B3auks in Richmond and Peters b'urg were reported as suspended, and it was even curent.ly reported that all the Naitional Banks of New York city. and the Banks. in Charleston, had closed their doors. Many of these re ports have not been authenticated. Rumor seized upon iele hills and straight way made thema mountains. Men are easily exeited. and about no thing so qjuickly as money. It is neC eessary thecn to take all we hear, in times like these, with many grains of allowance-if we woul- arrive at cor rect results. Tak everything. how ever, in the worst features in which they hrave presented themselves, and we are unable to see how we iu the South, or moure particularly here in Newkbrry, are to be materially injured by the present panic in the money market. It is true that many of our mterchants have laid in a large stock oft goods, and that until the cotton erpcan be mioved, these goods must lie as idle capital, still if the pressure b.. lifted in anything like a reasonable time. the goods will be disposed of much mi.ore rapidly than is customary, and the merchant will-not be the loser. The cotton is in the country--some of it has already been exposed for-sale onI e~ur streets, and it cau't long heg fir buyers. The whole world is a bid der for the cotton of the South. It isI the great heart which throbs vitality throhont civilization. It must be had. and if gref-ta i I. awld 1uwt take thtir place. B,sidez the Suith,: instead of being eithegreati.y or per ianently injured by tihe preseni. pan ic. will only be allowedthe. advntagt of learning a most v;lkab lessn af small cost As we enjeturei las week, the cause of the disease which has prostrated Wall Street, and sent its baleful influences abroad over the land, lies in corrupt, illegitimate spec ulations in securities "as baseless as the fabric of a vision." Millions of dollars have been made from the sales f bonds upon Rail Roads that had no existence save in the heated imagina tion of the speculator-nut only Rail Road but all other kinds of stock have been bought and sold with a reckless regard to honesty that is in the last degree startling. "Make money, my son, honestly if you can, and if you can't-why make money," seems to be the kind of advice most commonly followed, especially at the North, now adays. Do you wish respectability ? Make money. Do you want social po sition ? Make mooey. Do you want to be President ? Make money. Gold is the key that unlocks the portal to the gratification of every wish. Let us learn the lessons of sober wisdom which the hour teaches. Let our speculations be honest and legiti mate, and then although panics and money crises may come, yet we will be only temporarily affected. Since penning the above, a change has come over the troubled spirit of the dream, confidence is being restored, and the dread of a general and wide spread crash is not now felt. To sum up the matter we copy the following paragraph from the 'Star,' as found in the Pluenix : "The smoke is clearing away, and the wrecks appear. What are they? Half a dozen very rich men have sus pended payment, bit are quite as rich as ever; a score of moderately well-off men have declined also to pay their dets, and are reaay to jump into the market when it opens again; one huge defalcation is disclosed, but so acute is the panic that it passes with but little notice; the President has shown his band, and it don't seem to be pre cisely. clean." The Lesson of the Crash. THE BUSINESS INTERESTS OF THE COUNTRY UNAFFECTED. The New York Herald of Saturday has an abl-e editorial article on the finan cial troubles, from which we extract the following: The crash in.*Wall street, though it involves a few of the best known bank ing houses in the city and has destroy ed more than a.dozen oif the smaller operators, cannot have the effect of previous panics, notably that of 1857, upon the business interests of the country. Jay Cooke & Co. failed con f3..mdy am myWre carryrp9g the bonds of a railroad which was pay ing little or nothing upon the capital already invested, and which promised so little in the future that these bonds could not be negotiated. Fisk & Hatch, who also failed yesterday, were deal ing in the same kind of insecurities. The smaller houses were to some ex tent dependent on the large ones. and, of course, were operating in the same class of stocks. It is because of this fact that we think the general busi ness interests of the country will not suffer. Most of the railroads whose stock is now embarrassing the speculators are wild-cat affairs. built. as Commo dore Vanderbilt phrases it, from now where, and it was impossible that they should long continue to withstand the shocks of speculation, based as they were oni mythical capital and being without business and without profits. A reputable house which conducted the negotiation of their bonds was do ing a wrong to all the legitimate comn mercial interests of the. country. WI:ea Jay Cooke & Co. .undertook to carry thebonds of the Northern Pacific Rail road th.ey were laying the foundation of their dtstiuetion, and the destruc tion of all simuiliar dealers in similarly baseless enter-prises. The -downfall of this house. owing to their relations with this ioad, was impending for a long time ; but now that the crash has cmnec it is to be hoped that the atmosphere will clear. and that specu lation will no lo-:ger be allowed to di vert sound and legitimiate commereial enterprises from the re.'ular channels into the devious way of the gamblers of the street. It is to be hoped the lesson of the crash in Wall street will not be disre garded by our business men. Never hs the failure of reputable brokers dne so little real harm or taught so wholesome a lesson. The great busi ness i.terests of the country are un affected, and trade moves on *as if no thng had happened. A healthier tone is sure to pervade business eircles whern these wreeks arc swept away. The reckless spirit of specnlation will be restrained. - It will be miore ap parent, than before that the legitimate businessof the country is sound and safe, A week ago general prostration would have been predicted on the hypothesis that Jay Cooke & C3o., Fisk & IIatch and a dozen other leading bankers should fail. . They have failed, and yet no serious consequences have re suited, or are likely to result from the disasters which have overtaken them. They were found to be only a few men making haste to be rich by deal ing in unsound securities and at tempt ing to do a larger business than their capital allowed. While we regret their failure we reioice that the crash has had no more evil consequences than to cie:rr the atmosphere,, and show the world that the true repre sentatives of American business and American credit are unaffected. It has been, let us hope, like a thunder storm in midsumimer. The storm is over, the sky is clearer. and the air f * : Gi ovE, Sept . 3.* Mn. Lbiron.-uIIr last lcIIer toyott ended just as we were about to disembark aW At kin Tak. Ve will now tale P thea of narratife and-assiver4 few t*ose events thatsfforded a)(son ch plesure, and-which we hope wilt*jplcseou for a few mients &-their perusal. In the miorning as we embarked, the'sky was bid from our view by thick, heavy clouds, but now as w@ disembark. the beautifu! blue of the heavens is perceptib!e everywhere, und a bright summer's sun is shining down in its noon day splendor.' The cheering beams have driven the dew-drops from every leaf and twig, and the burning rays are now scorch ing most unmercifully our unprotected heads. To see a whole delegation disembark in - the middle of an open field, afforded comient for crowded cars, and excited a great deal of curiosity. We do not know what decision they decided upon, but enough to, say they soon left us alone, and in our glory. A kind friend had come out to meet a friend or two, but soon found himelfsuddenly surrounded by a host of friends. It was certainly a quandary. What must be done with such a crowd? Well, our good friend soon came to the obvious and inevitable conclusion, that they must be quartered, so lie began by putting two of the number in a good pasture, and one fellow concluded he would like to get into a good pasture, too, so lie followed the first party. A Bear came along and got two more, and others disappeared equally as mysteriously. The crcwd was growing b,a!u tifully less, and we alarmingly uneasy, but our friend proposed to the remainder that we walk some half wile to a Mr. W.'s, which we did to the tune of "oh, how warm." Here our friend was not puzzled long, for he said, I will put about half of you iu a Castle to night, and to-morrow I will sprinkle some, and the rest scatter. generally. All was satisfactory, and in a few minutes we found ourselves 2eated in a Jersey wagon, and "en route" for the Castle, which we soon reached and round most agreeable, but this was only a temporary home for us for the night, as we were one of those that- had to take A. Sprin kle. On the 22d of August the Synod of South western Virginia convened at Cedar Grove Chureb. There was a ftill delegation present, only one .or two absent. The church is sit uated in a little grove, near both the railroad and McAdamized road. As the church was small and a large number of peop!e were ex pected, a large arbor was erected for the better accommodation of those who might attend. All the 'sessions of Synod were highly interesting. One of the principal items of business was the location of a Female College at Marion, Smythe Co., Va. The question was discussed, and Marion it seemed was the place, as it was decided in its favor by an overwhelming majority. It was our p!easure tq visit Marion during Synod, and we were forcibly and favorably impressed with the place. It is one of the neatest, nicest alid most sociable little vil lages we have ever seca. It is surrounded by the finest mountain scenety and has an elevated and commanding situation. The Holston River runs throuli it. and affords the finest wat.r power. There is an exten sive flontrlg mill here. run by a wealthy man. There are a number of influential aed wealthy men buying property here at pres ent, and soon a large iron foundiy will be put in blast. Iron and copper ore is abu1 dant. and the capital is all that is needed to develop it. But we have digressed from the subject. We were speaking of the Female College. The people ot Marion are enthusi a tic on the subject and arc, subscribing lib erally, and we predict that ere long they will have one of the finest Female institutions in the State. Female educatiou and influence is felt everywhere, nad these people are not behind the times, but are awake to their in terest in this direction. We were shown seve'al locations proposed for locating the buildings. All were fine and desirable, and all that is needed is a little time, when the btrildings will be erected. For the present. they have secured a buildin1g lb. town, and have opened school with flattering.snecess. Rev. Prof. J.. J. Sherer is p..'ncipal.and is a life-giving and go-ahead man, who does busi ness on the square. He has spent several years in Texas as a teacher, and was sueces COiZeis omd to be a success. This is the cheapest and best place to live that we have found for some time, board being only $10 per month in the best families. Let us return to Cedar Grove, as we have wndered off' some four miles. On Sunday there was a tremendous crowd out. I don r. s'e where all the people cime from, but suffiee it to say they were here. On Monday there was also a large nember out to hear the address delivered hafore the Education and Missionary Society. Tlhere were two speeches, both chaste and beautiful. We are sorry our limits will not admit of a sy nop sis of them. Synod adjourned on Tuesday evening, ufter a harmonIous and interesting meeting of~ five days. We cannot dismiss the subject without speaking of the kindness and hospitality of these people. They put aside their occupa tions and attended the Synod, all the time administering to every want. They made most umple provision for uill, and as it was inonvenient to return home for dinner, rovided the greatest a bundance of' the nicest things to suipply the demands ot' the '-inner man." At home they spared nothing to ac commodame, amuse, interest and en tertain. Their kindness andI hospitality will ever be remembered with grratitude. and our visit to Cedar Grove be at pleasant reminiscence' of the past. For the present we must close.

Cokesbury is a quiet, retired, ru'al village in the County-of Abbe ville, two miles distant from the Greenville ad'Columnbia Rt. it., on a high sandy ridge. HER. sCHOOLS. This village was originally built on the ba>is of the sebools located here, families moving in and settling for the purpose of educating thecir sons and daughters. Cokes bury is one of the oldest edacational sites in the State, having had flourishing male and female schools for the la.st forty years; and can boast as fine a galaxy of teachers as any tow-n in the State. Rlev. George F. Round is npw the Rtector of her Male Academy, called the Coke,bury Conferenice School, assisted by his brother, Professor Robert J. Round. This school*wes hanidsomnely endowed, but the casuarlties of war have stripped her of the geater portion of her endowment. 11cr spacious building is superceded by a brick building of humbler dimnsions, and mthe school the pre-ent year is larger thani it has been since the war. TIhe students are digni fed and'well beh aved, showing no disposition to mischief so frequent in boys of their age. The board here is very reasonable, being only ten dollars per month.

EI,roR.-On last l'hursday, the 24th, after having been disappointed on the Thursday of the previous week, on accoun of rainv weathler, a bevy of tihe town' fairest djughters, and an e<Iual numbier ol young men, took :t "rmu" to the woods a "Squirrel Hollow spring," to spend the day in rural festivi.y. Having had a pleasant ride to the place of rendezvou4, we sough a cool, shady spot, where the morning hours were spent in difl'erent pastimes. There was spread one of the most bountiful and deligItIid table.:, that the most fas tidious appetite could desire or expect. And if we be allowed to jige from per sonal observations the party relished it, at least one or two did ample justice to the tempting viands. After dinner the evening was passed in playing several lively games, one espe.ially conspicuous, was styled "Admiration, which afforded much fun. About sunset we took leave for town, the day having been one of the most pleasan imaginable, and all felt that it was only toc short. ' FOR THE HERALD. MR. EDIToR.--We have just closed a meet. Ing of some interest at Bethesda Church, on( and a fourth miles from the village of Pros. perity. By the way, our church is looking up in that locality. It is wondei,ul how tha people in that section do things; it looks likt the work of magic; I went down expecting to preach in the old church, bat to my as tonishment, the brethren had gone to work, pulled dlown the old building, moved it oui upop the public road, and had it ready tt preach in, and all the work of about out week. Now, M-. Editor, old "HAnD BAneAIN'" the former name of the church-is one of thelpast, and, instead, we have Bethesda, standing upon one of the loveliest locations; and expect soon to have it ceiled, painted and glazed. We have some workiug men ia that count., and expect soon to have a church, that will take its sAnd abreast with the other churches of the community. Yours truly, J. L. 3. Obituary. DtED, i n Newberry, S. C., Sept. 14th, 1873, MATTIL' HOOD Huxv, daughter of Gen. W. H. and Mrs. Sue E. Hunt, aged eight yeprs, and nearly three months.' After a short illness of less thtan a weok, Ott a calm Sabbath morning, little Matte closed her eyes on earth, with all its changips scenes, to open them amidst the glories oi that Heavenly world where the Sabbath never ends. Now she is with her Saviot whom she loved, and whose praise she de lighted to lisp with her infant tongue. Ileu and be forever with the Lord. Decar parents and friends be comforted with the thtough that your little hlab is gently led by the Good Shepherd, in the green pastures, and beside the still waters, where her tender fcee can never go astray. She is fully realizing what she so sweetly expressed in a .previous illness, "I am going to be a lit tle angel up ir Heaven and wear a beautiful crown, and have a golden harp, to make such sweet music, and, mother, then I will comne dow to the river, and wait on the other side fot yott and father to come o0; and [ will be so glad.when God lets you come!" She will be sadly~ missed in the home circle, for with a mind-far surpassinig her years, ber.gen tleness, thoughtful ness, and unselfish ness, were remarkable. iler heart was full of love for every living thing. No wondet shte was the favorite and delight of all who knew her. Her pastor closed his touching and appro. priate remarks at her funeral by saying, "Thbank God for the memory of such a child! Thatnk God for the e.umple of such a child!' Flowers, bright, beautiful flowers, fading emblems -of the beautiful child; were heaped upon her coffBn and grave by loving bands, as she was tenderly laid away to her long and quiet test. "The memory of thy love!iness Shall round our weary.pathway smile, Like moonlight when the sun has set A sweet and tender radiance yet. Farewell! A little time and we, Who knew thee well,and loved thee here, One after one shall follow thee." DEPAR'TED this life, on the 8th of Sept., 1873, at Helena, Newberry Co., Mr. 1410BER'S ScRUGGs, in the 60th year of his age. The subiject of this notice, iin connection with the late Judge O'Neall, and others zealous in good works, organized the "Hele na Baptist Church,"-'of which he was an earnest and efficenet officer until his death. This church has lost in him a firm supporter and most worthy member, and his pastor a sincere friend and helper. His house was truly,.called 'I'be MZinister's Home.' Ever alive to their wants, the 'Man of God' was made welcome with the warm hand of a ccet:ul hospItality, the sympathizing heart of a friend, and the open purse of a brother. As a husband, he was devoted and true, ever -mindful of the slightest wish of the dear one who naade his life a happy pilgrim age. No task too hard-no toil too much for her he loved so well. As a father;hc was kind atnd indulgent, loving his children with unselfish devotion, counseling them with a caltm judgument-advisitg them with a view to their best interest-inculcating by precept and example a life of busy industry and strict integrity-impressing on their youthful minds and hearts a veneration and active in tercst for that branch of 'Christ's Church,' of which, for many years, he was a consistent member. What enthusiastic yearnings now fill thme souls of that brokaet hotnc for his love, his counsels. The spi.it of the lost parent seems to linger over the remnant of the household, and the Bible upon its stand-the Hook lhe loved-seems still tO open to them its pro. miises in sweet tones, attd c.,lis t hem, as it were, with an ungcl voice to the land he inherits, le being dead speaks pro-eminent ly to them-his departed spirit reminds them of the hour in which they, too, shall be called to lay aside the vestments of mortality. WVhenu we consign the body of a loved one to the tomb, or witness the last gasp of a dyitng frientd, we seem to staud ifpon the very bor ders of the unseen world--to be walking on the shore of that boundless ocean in which all the streams of time are swallowed up--we altmost hear the thnnders of its billows-to feel the heavings of its waves-and a sense of immortality rushes upon the soul which at once oppresses and expands-we feel like rising and shaking ourSsles from the dust to do with all' opr might whtatsoever our hands find to do/&Siuce the night oometh wbcn no msn can work.'. Bereaved ones, let your grief be not crush. itng, but bringing to life from the grave a calm and holy grief that brings a smile in the midst of tears, and a foreshadowing of peace will rest like a halo on your sot row stricken hearts, with an Inward looking and heanitng toward that Savior who hal given us an enlightened hope of a blissful Immortality -and a faith that n ill glowvin the redeeming light which radiates from the Cross and the Tbhrone.
