its way to us, and we give it welcome and

Schools and little children. "Kind words"

take pleasure in recommending to the notice
of our readers the publication of this paper
It will be ably edited, some of the best talent
of the State having been secured to write for
its columns. As a family paper it should
meet with ready and liberal patronage.
Terms $3 per annum; or the ' Rural" and
"Herald" for one year $5,00.
False Impression.
We understand that the impression prevails,
to some extent, that there is not money
sufficient in Newberry district to purchase
the cotton which may by offered for sale.
We are gratified to announce that through
the energy of some of our business men,
arrangements have been effected, by which
an abundant supply of money will always be
on hand, and every facility afforded which
can be had in any other market.
Inadeqjuacy of Support.
We regret to learn from -the Carolina
Spartan, that three of the ablest ministers in
t.he South Carolina Conferenc3, are about to
leave the State. Rev. Dr. Charles Taylor,
Rev. HI. A. C. Walker, and Rev. Jno. W.
Wighitman. These gentlemen are forced ,by
inadequacy of support,to leave the fields they
love so well. Who does not know H. A. C.
Walker, and Dr. Taylor, of missionary fame,
and the Rev. Jno. W. Wightman, brother
of the present Bishop. Dr. Taylor has ac
cepited the Presidency of a college at Millers
-burg, near Lexington, Kentucky. Rev. Mr.
Walker will transfer his connection to the
Kentucky conference. We believe that Mr.
Wightman, also goes to Kentucky. They
do not change their labors, only their fields
of labor! and that because they arc driven
sway for the want of necessary support.
Newberry Herald-Erratum.
We find the following in the Newberry
Herald:
"We regret to notice a red:mction in the
*size of that excellent paper, the Carolina
Spartan. Want of mail facilities and suflis
cient patronage, the unfortunate cause."
Oh no-Brother, thou art mistaken. There
is no "reduction in the size of the Spartan."
If you will look again, you wvill find that
there is a greater probability of that "excels.
lent paper" being enlarged from increased
*patronage, than being reduced. The H-er,
ald's 'regre?s' are appreciated and the Spar
tan wishes its worthy cotemporary great suc
cess. Please correct the error.-Carolina
Spartan.
Glad to hear it dear, heroic Spartan, and
sorry we made such a mistake. Our eyes
grow misty at times, hence the oversight.
Or perhaps it might have been our "devil"
after all, he plays old harry with things
sometimes. We "look again" and "find the
probability;" long may you live to increase
and grow, and your influence be felt from
the rivers to the ends of the earth. Give us
your fist.
The Charleston Courier makes flattering
mnention of the arrival of our late townsman,
Dr. J. E. Dapray,who is once more establish
ed in that city, in the practice of Dental
Surgery. Success attend him.
The election in Montana Territory on the
4th inst., is reported to have resulted in a
Democratic victory by a majority of two
thousand.
CHINEsE LABORERs -A late New Orleans
special to the New York Times says the
Chinese emigration agent has made contracts
for the delivery of -20.000 Chmnese laborers in
the former city in time for the next year's
crop.
Judge C. C. Clay, the father of the ex-Sen
ator, died in Huntsville on the 6th instant.
Hie was in his 7Slh y-ear. His sons, lion. C.
Ci. CLay and J. Withers Clay, were with him.
.L.Clay, the other son, is in Georgia.
In New York, whgile a wifc was dyir,g with
Adjournment of the Legislature.
The Legislature adjourned on Friday last,
after a session of near three weeks. Our
readers will remember that the immediate
object of the Governor as stated in his Proc
lamation, in convening the Legislature in
extra session, was to put in motion the ma
chinery of our Courts, for the trial of cases
affecting the rigi.ts of freedmen, and also to
pass some measure of relief for the people,
on account of the disastrous drought which
has prevailed throughout the State. But
upon the assembling of the Legislature it
soon appeared that its business assumed a
much wider range than these objects. The
enactment of a Law defining the rights of
free persons of color, and the Act concern*
ing District Courts, it would seem, have met
the chief object had in view by the GoverS
nor in convening the Legislature. These
measures if, they conform as we suppose
they do, to the action of other States where
the people have been relieved of Military
Courts, will meet with unusual favor. Mili
tary Courts, however well administered, are
not consonant to the spirit of our institutions,
and are so contrary to all our notions of An
glo Saxon liberty that the people can: never
become accustomed to them, or consent
voluntarily to have their rights adjudicated
by them. We sincerely hope that the mili,
tary authorities of the United States, and the
civil functionaries of the State, will soon
agree upon terms of divorce and eternal sepa
ration, and that justice to our whole popula
tion will be impartially administered by the
Courts which have been established, Let
the reign of violence and injustice now come
to an end, and our people one and all sus,
tain the laws which have been enacted to
suppress the one and avoid the other.
We also see that the Legislature has by
resolution directed the Governor to furnish
Corn to supply the wants of our people. The
precise nature of the measure adopted we have
not been able to ascertain. but bonds of the
State to the amount of three hundred thou
sand ($300,000) have been placed in the
Governors' hands to be used for the purchase
of Corn.
The discussion of measures of relief, grow
ing out of the indcbtedness of the people,
occupied much of the time of the Legisla,
ture, and resulted in passing an Act chang:
lug the time of the sitting of the Courts of
Common Pleas, and postponing the Fall Term
till next Spring. The Bill which passed the
House, and which was insisted on by that
body, un til the alternative of doing nothing
or of adopting the Senate measure was pre
sented, made the sitting of the Court of Com
mon Pleas annual, the first term to be next
Spring at the times now fixed by Law. In
addition to the relief which this change
would have given to the people, it was bes
lieved to be a good one as part of a new sys
temn. Neither of the measures interfered
with the court of Sessions. So that, we will
have a Fall Court for the trial only of offend
ers against the Law, and actions of trespass,
&c. All writs for the collection of money
which have already been issued as well as
those to be issued hereafter, are made re
turnable by this Act to next Spring Term.
We learn that the Senate is responsible for
not extending greater relief to the people
than has been done. The House Bill was
defeated by the casting vote of the presiding
officer, who under our new Constitution
is the Lieut, Governor, and not a Senator
representing any constituency. The mem
bers of both Houses from this District we
believe stood by the House Bill but failed to
carry their point. Well; we can say as to the
measure which passed, "so far so good;''
but if we are rnot mistaken as to public sen,
timent, something more will be demanded
at the regular session. We trust that then
there will be greater unanimity, or rather
less antagonism, between members on this
subject, and that a united and earnest effort
may secure the adoption of sonic permanent
measure of relief.
A new system of small coinage is now un
der consideration by the Government, and
will in all probability be adopted. The pro
posed new cent is to be made of nickel, the
same as at present, but the centre of the coin
has a raised star, the nucleus which is rep
resented by a hole through the coin. The
two cent pieces have two perforated stars,
and the three cent coins three. Thus by
holding either denomination to the lighit, or
by simply touching them so as to feel the
holes, thbe value of a piece of money is uns
mistakably known. The half dimes and
dimes arc a larger coin of better metal, but
are to be distinguished by one and two per
forated stars. The plan is altogether novel
and will be an improvement upon the present
issue of mint drops.
A VARIETY OF NAMES.--The "Convens
tion" which closed its labors in Philadelphia
last Friday, has b)een dignified with any
numrber of names since its opening. The
Neiv York Herald calls it the "Mean White"
Convention; the National Intelligencer, the
"Burlesque" Convention; the National IRe
pub lican, the -'Fleshspot" Convention; the
Rechmond papers, the "Bogus" Convention;
the Baltimore papers, the "Hiotten tot" Con
vention" the Petersburg papers, the "Mulats
to" Convention; the Norfolk papers, the
"Radical" Convention; the Chicogo papers,
the '"Disunion" Convention; the New Ora
leans papers, the "Mongrel" Convention;
the Abolition papers, the Convention of
"Southern Loyalists;" and George Fran cis
Train claps the climax by naming it "The
Fied Douglas, Parson Brownlow, Mutual Ad
miration Society of Dead Dogs."
IMPORTANT IF TRUE-A Boston paper
states that a company of English capitalists,
with a capital1 of $2,000,000, are about to
start in Charleston, S. C., ani enormous cot
ton factory establishment for supplying the
Europeani trade. They are backed by the
wealhiest firms in England and F'rance.
Seval other eniterprises, it is added, are
under consideration, which, if successful,
will speedily render Charlcston the leading
cttv of tIAO South.
FOR THIE HERALD.
Conversions at a Wedding.
MR. EDITORS; One of the most interesting
meetings I ever attended, was closed yester
day evening, at New Chapel Church, which
resulted in the Conversion of sixty-two souls
among the whites, and some few colored.
Religion is the theme of thought and con
versation among the young and old. To
prove that it is so, I will relate the following
incident: On Wednesday evening, after the
Congregation had been dismissed, the young
converts and penitents concluded to have a
prayer meeting at my house, to begin at
candle light. It was rumored in the neigh
borhood, too, that a couple were to be there
to be married. Sure enough the rumor was
correct. I opened the services of the eve.
ning by uniting in holy matrimony, Mr.
Jacob Croach, of Edgefield Dist., and Miss
Elvira Kelly, of Newberry, both of whom had
been happily converted during the meeting.
Rev. Traywick conducted the prayer meeting,
which followed immediately, and resulted in
the conversion of five souls. Conversions at
a wedding! Think of it. May life be full of
joy to the bride and groom who begin its
journey so auspiciously. Rev's Uncle Derrick,
Zimmerman, Traywick, Peurifoy, and my
father, of the M. E. Church, Rev. Menden%
hall of the Baptist Church, and Rev. J. H.
Bailey of the' Lutheran Church, labored in
the meeting. May each of these have souls
for their hire. Again I say, thank God for
Christian Communion. Up to date 400
have professed conversion in the bounds of
the circuit during the last quarter. To God
be all the glory. J. MARIoN BOYD.
September 21st 1866.

Mn. EDITOR-As many solutions for the
difficulties of the times have been offered,
and as all, as yet, have been entirely un
satisfactory, and as it seems impossibe for
the Legislature to do anything to relieve the
people pernianently, Stay Laws and other
efforts of the kind being mere temporary
expedients, permit me to offer a few sugges,
tions for the consideration of your readers
It is gener believed that all those debts
which we contracted for negroes should
not be pai , inasmuch as the negro is now
no longer property, and the consideration for
the debt has entirely failed. Let Juries
always so find in the trial of causes of this
kind. Howv can it be said with any justice
or propriety that Smith owes his neighbor
Brown a thousand dollars for a negro, when
the said negro is going at large as a free,
man, and subject to the control of neither
Smith nor Brown? Let the principle be ex,
tended to contracts for other shecies of -pros
perty, and it will still hold good. John Doe
perhaps is not in debt to his neighbor for a
negro, but he is for other property, and by
the loss of his slaves he is ruined, as by that
loss his other property is reduced greatly in
value and his productive power is almost, if
not entirely destroyed. Now, my idea is
this. Let all cases arising from contracts be
tried by a jury, that is, let there be no judg
ments taken by default; and as it is the duty
of juries to assess darpages, let them take
into consideration all the circumstances of
each case and give the Plaintiff's only nomi
nal damages or none at all.
QUID PRO Quo.
CIN CINNATI, September 20.-The Ohio
River has risen ten feet during the last forty
eight hours. With the exception of the
Litt.e Miami and Marietta and Cincinnati,
al! the railroads are interrupted by the
dstruction of bridges. The corn fields along
the Big Miami are all overflowed-the wa :tr
being higher than the corn tops. The Sciota
has overflowed the valley at Columbus, and
the lower part of Dayton is overflowed, and
MPhersonville, opposite, is ten feet under
water, Families are forced to abandon their
homes, Three men were drowned at Pip)ua.
The Radicals arc ini intense agony over
the witheriug rebake Gcneral Grant gave
them at Cincinnati. Their feelings can be
imagined, but cannot be described. They
know now where he stands in this great
crisis of our country's history, and they can
no longer doubt his firm adherence to the
wise and patriotic policy of the President.
He is for Union, and because he is so, he is
on the side of the commander-inschief.
[Phil. Age.

HAND TO HAND FIGHTING.-The corres%
pondent of the London Times with the
Prussian army, states in the recent battles in
Germany the Prussian cavalry received
terrible sword cuts from the iron cased Aus
trian horsemen, whose weapons coming
down upon the shoulders of their adversaries,
frequently cut through the shoulder blade
and deep into the body. The feats of strength
that we read of in the history of the middle
ages were re-enacted in this short but bloody
war.
THE APPREHIENDED CONFLICT OF ARMxs.
-The impeachment of the President will
probably occur soon after the opening of
Congress. Arms will probably be distributed
by Act of Congress to the different Northern
States, and the Governors of these States
have already held a meeting, in which they
have pledged themselves to sustain Congress
in any emergency which may arise. All
this certainly looks very threatening, and
unless President Johnson shows himself
more of a man, and strikes faster and harder
than he has done, the days of his power are
numbered.-Cor. Baltimore Gazette.
The open ing of the railroad between Lou
isville and Memphis is announced. These
two great cities of the South,west are now
in direct communication. Both the psssen
ger line and the freight lines are in fine
wrkin ordcr.
Pgis, Sept. 17.-The French Circt
lar says the recent charges are favorable:
France, Prussia and Italy are drawn near
er in ideas and interests. Austria has'
Row no hostile interest. The convention
of Rome will be loyally carried out.
Second class navies is assured of the'
liberty of the Baltic and Mediterranean..
The note justifies the Emperor's medi
ation at the annexation of the people of
the same language and interests, where
it shows the necessity of perfect defence
and military organization ; not bowever
as a threat, and expresses belief of a last
ing peace in Europe, 'Tis said that the
Emperor refuses to allow officers of the
French army to hold office in Mexico,'
owing to the protest of the United States'
there at.
ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 17.-The Prus
sians who attempted to murder the Czar,
has been executed. Joy was exhibited
in consequence of the punishment award
ed the assassin and demonstration of re
spect to the Czar at the same ti're.
A JusT REBUKE.-There is one thing;
connected with General Grant that will
roll down through history like the peel
of a grand old cathedral bell on the Sab
bath air. That is his speech at Indian
apolis when called upon to make a speech
to the crowd that had just refused to
hear the President, Secretary Seward,'
and other distinguished gentlemen. He
appeared on the balcony ; a silence like
that of death fell on the vast concourse..
Ie said: "Gentletnen, I am ashamed of
you; go home and be ashamed of your
selves."-Yorkville Courier.
The editor of the Anderson Intelligencer
puts forth the following pathetic appeal,
we know how to sympathise with him:
4 WANTED,-Lodging and meagre fare in
some benevolent and charitable institution.
for an editor, two printers, and the "devil."
The proprietor only seeks this charity untili
subscribers are prepared to "fork over" their
dues to this office."
A Dacotah chap thinks be has found Para
dise. Hear him: "No income tax; no infer
nal revenue; no spies to see if you treat a
friend on Sunday; no special police; no dog
tax, no poll tax, school tax or bounty fund.
And to end with the Indians and halfsbreeds
can't tell one greenback from another, all of
our ones are tens."
NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-The blacks of the
Union League to-day celebrated the anniver
sary of the emancipation of their race at the
South by a procession on Broadway and
addresses in Myrtle Park, Brooklyn.
