A xewsuapeu office and a law\ ers
,"^^s^Si5*l?v:e had always thought were the
last places that would attract burglars.
The blowings-open of the Charlotte
Observer's s-.tie, however, is a new
departure in this direction. While
our conk mporary was severely treated,
it was published the next day. and
gives us a fall account of the transaction
and the destruction by fire'.
It i* to be expected that new bills
lockii'g '0 an amendment of th; dispensary
:aw will be introduced at the
approaching session of the General
Assembly. This iaw and the manner
of its administration has been the
source of a g-eat 'teal of trouble in the
State. It is doubtful wbe:her we
have ever had a law ibat created more
discussion, mor bitterness among our
people, and that has caused the shedding
of more I'ood. Everybody admits
that it contains some good features,
but the t-oi-.ble is that it has j
beer, enforced in a way that it has be~<^me
oppressive. The searching of
private houses, the ransacking of a (
lady's trunk, and ihe opening of a
distinguished clergyman's valise on '
tlo pub! c streets of Charleston are not ,
calculated to bring -the moral senti- ,
ment of the people to the support of ]
the lav/. X;> one can object to the ]
suppression of the illegal sale of liquor
so long as tbe sale is prohibited ex- '
cep" in the manner as now prescribed :
by law. but this can be done in a de- j
cent and orderly way. We believe
hat if the metropolitan colics svstem
is abolished, and she constabulary, and
tbc fcnforc:si3iit of the law left to the
<
sheriffs, magistrates and the regular i
officers elected i n the enforcement of (
Oihcr laws, it will ;^e acceptable to the <
people, and Ibe dispensary law will '
be c beyed. Tb\> would certainly be *

Having ascertained truths in the is

have advanced socially. We have!

i gratifying to have our views confirmed '

We note that President Johnston in- j
tends to make an effort to resurrcct |
the County Fair. We think that he !
has hit upon the right line when he:
sno-'^sts that the organization of mure !
pnz2 clubs will best lead 10 this re-1
suit. Xowasthe new \ear has just i
begun, we know of no better way to;
begin it than by forming these clubs '
all over our county. It would tend to |
creafe a friendly, but wholesome
rivalry among different communities '
and with good results to our coir.ity. j
I Ic would unite our Jarmers al ?ngi

THOUGHTS ON THE NEW* VKAII.
Anil Christmas Happenings Around YVui- j
ling. i
A happy new year's greeting to you j
and staff, Mr. Editor, of the Wmnsboro !
Xews and Herald. Christmas with
all its pleasures_ar.d disappointments, |
its joys and sorrows, has come and
gone and the infant new year has jast
dawned upon us with its unknown
history to be written when another
new year takes its place. God grant
that it may be a year of peace, prosperity
and a general reconciliation of
any ana everytnmg among us as muividaals
or a people that tended to estrange
as from each other, and may
we become a more united people, and
see and feel how great is our dependence
one upon another. Let as all
start the new year with w armer feelings
for our fellowman; say a? few
unkind things as possible; but try if
v/e can't And an occasional kind word
for the fortunate and unfortunate
among us. All of these things can
and would be sanctioned (if done in
the proper spirit) by the Great Power
that rules the destinies of unions; and
none of us can doubt that if such a
course is pursued the next new year
would find us a happy people, feeling
that the future prosperity of our Sute
depends upon the unity of her people.1
\Ye are informed that most of our
farmers sro supplied wish sufficient
labor for the year. Moving Ins been
the order of the day for the jjlast week
or more. But amidst all this confusion
we note that a feeling of cheerfulness
pervades our community, and
ou-' horny-handed sons of the soil will
begni the work of the new year with
a? much vigor as if their feelings had :
never been'depressed by the low p: ice
of cotton. Well, some of your tender- 1
foote i readers may want to know .
Vintr- sRoh a thinor conld ba. We cm
only say what we think brings about
this happy state of affairs, and that is, 1
all of oar corn cribs are pretty well
filled up with corn, uaeat in the smoke
house, and more hog? to kill. .
The young people had their usual '
rounds of Christmas gayety. They i
began on* Christmas ni^ht: with a party
at Mr. El Dyes. The --usual pastime'' ,
was engaged iu 'and- enjoyed by al! ,
present The < r.Jcr w.?s at
Mr. D. C. ColVin's, who notified the 1
young swains and damsels that he was <
ready to receive them and a ponnJ .
exra on Tuesday of the holidays.
There was no grumbling at the tax,
says our fair informant, and Mr. Col* <
viirs yard and hons.t was fairly he- I
seiged by the rniny ho cime to pur- (
take of the fesuvai find the '-'usual i
pastime." all of which was ei'joyul i
only as young folks knnv l:'?w to et>
joy a good thing. The neirt day \
(Wednesday) a similar i\caption was
given at the hospitable home of that ;
most genial of host, the warm-hearted (
John A. F. Coleman. Another dir.- ]

a chair was furnished extra with the 1
iinner, and that hereafter he will ig- 1
nore all parties that doesn't eotnc oil" '
in day time with a dinner and a cviir <
at the table. {

Another Christmas has coma and
gone. We arc beginning to rorgct the
tss'e of tho riirisimas turkey and to
settle down to ewvyday The day
was observed very quietly heie. The
colored brother was generally pretty
well fi'leu with "pe:sonai use," out
behave:] hirn-e'f very well under the
circumstances.
The marrying lever seems to have
broken loose in our community. We
have thrie or four young benedicts
and the fever seems to be spreading, j
We noticed one of cur oldest citizens |
3u hi; way t-> a neighboring county
on a tcout.'; lie said he was only
isking the privilege of calling some
)ne "honey." It is reported he "nsade
x water-haul."
The farmers are beginning to think
)f another crop, and making pla:is for
:hc future. I suppose about the usual
icreagewill be plan:ed, though plantngtime
is too far oil" now to talk of
hat.
Mr. A. J?. Nicholson iias just completed
an addition to hi- house. Mr.
W. L. lleid has the lumber on hands
md will erect a store soon, lousee 1
Mii-frtwn is (rmwintr. Tiifi first thin? i
rou know we will have a dispensary.
It sterns to us that the treasurer's ;
;ffice is the biggest stumbling block
>ver put in tiac Reformers' way. Every j
)ne is grumbling- about high taxes. If 1
he thing is not hal.ed pretty soon, I j
relieve Ben for self-preservation will
;irasclf refuse to vote the ticket.
Taxes seem to be as high as in the
^ood o:d da,oor stealing-, and the dis
jensary paying in so much money too 1
[ suppose many a icllow will think
hat one thing the gold standard has
aiaed in price i3 taxes.
The piesent schedule on tli3 Southern '
laiiroad doesn't suit us very well. A j
fteat deal of complaint is heard, but I
fuess that is about all we can do. The <
inly north-bound passenger train that i
tops here passes at G 'JO a. m. It 1
akes a day and night to go to Winns- '

Bucschcl, together wiih their two
charming daughters, did all that was
in their power to make the day pleasant
and one long to be remembered,
at>d well did ihey succeed. The day
was spent in chattin?, interspersed
with sweet strains of music- At
about one o'clock the dinner was announced,
and boys, you ought
to have been there for the turkeys,
cake?, pie?, custards, tarts, jams and
hams?they were there. Truly it reminded
one of a wedding reception.
The s:ght of the contents uf that table
would have given an appetite to any
man.
When the geese saw the man coming
"'who lost his wa'ch" an old gander
gave the signal and oft' to the pasture
he made, followed by his ibc'', and
theie ihey met "'big Sam" and they
i concladed not to stay on lan !. At
j about five o'clock the crowd dispersed
and went to their various homes with
foud recollections ot the day, feeling
that it was good to nave been ih^re.
