NEWBERRY, S. C. Wednesday Morning, February 27, 1867. Rev. E. A-Bolles. We received yesterday two very in. teresting communications from this gen tieman, which will be found in to-day's paper. Attention is called to the article by "one of the People" on first page, copied from the Carolinian. The writer i: on a sulject of peculiar interest at this time, and one in which the majority of the people are vitally i.terested. The advertising Agency of Messrs. G. H. Rowell & Co., is known ewy *here now, and known favorably. businessmen find it one of the greatest convenienees of the time, reliable, prompt, and thoroughly efficient.

The Home Journal will hereafter be owned and edited by George Perry, J. H. Elliot and Morris Phillips, under the firm of Morris Phillips & Co. Mr. Perry has been a frequent and valuable contributor in the department ofliterature and art, whose essays, sketches and poems have been favorably received by the public. Mr. Elliot was a special favorite of the late editor, for his poetical writings and other productions of his pen, and Mr. Phillips has been chiefly de voted to the business ccnce.:is of the paper. The recent numbers of the Home Journal have contained many interesting personal reminiscences of Mr. Willi , which, it is understood, will he con tinued in future articles.-New York Tribune, Feb uary 11. For the Newberry Herald. MESSRS EDrroRs :-On January .th, with wife, four children, one servant, nine trunks. two baskets, ene bundle, one box, one fly-brush (not the one I left in your town in the care of somebody, who let the rats eat it,) and two valises, on Rail I passed Newberry en route, via Columbia, to Marionu. I had many thoughts some rhat tinged with sadness on leaving many friends, some endeared ones. Enquired after some, but the train whirled all behind but love and hope of meeting again. Already surcharged with emigrant freedmen, we whistled by several expect ant but disappointed crowds, arriving in Columbia about on t:me. Here we were met with ten thousand or less of refu .gees from Babel, every one of whom or somewhat nearly so, aslked every body on the train, or somewhat so, and me be sides and in particular, tan thousand times or less, and n,early till at once, and repeated the questions cor requests before they had finished the first, and did the same thing a third time before half throughiwith the secondl, to agree in part and be forced in part to do some thing about hotels, houses, omnibuses, carriages, checks, baggage andl pieces of several other things, and to do it in a rr,or the devil would get us, or they themselves would grab us, without in. forming us which would treat us the better. Net hearing or seeing them at al1, we were in due time around the fire side of the worthy widowv and family o' my particalar friend and brother, the ate Rev. Samuel Townsetel. Next day, 2 p. m.2, resumned journey on S. C. R. R., as far as Kingsville, hay ogan intermittent jolting somewhat recom'-nendable to a d'Ypeptic, or service able in.setling a hastily eaten dollar-din ner at the "National Hote!." But we hd a gentleman for a conductor, was glad we missed the conductor-ship of omebody I saw a few weeks before on his road. Being busy enting pindiers, I lidn't considler I had time to learn the ame of his swollen and swelling mighti ess. If there is any thing in a man of be porcupine, or the snapping turtle inture or some other lordly excellence, hat unfortur.ately, had unfaivorab}e sur oundings .in raising, being a conductor n a Rail Road will manifest and mature t most admirably. The only dis-connection for weeks and even months on the well managed and egular running W. & Mf. R. R., occa ioned our detention at Kin'gsville from . P. M., to 2 A. M., telegraphed that ur arrival in Marion would be governed ecordineiy. Appending some - very ood coffee to our lunch, in company ith Rev. J. S. and famiy, we spent the old hours pleasantly in a fine coach of W. & M. R. R1oad. This ro:ad has an ac omodating agent at Kingsville,. also one f like temnire and temper at Marion, with atelegraph operator for a neighbor, who, a gentleman himself, knows how to give ciil answers to strangers either on or ff businers. Retaining quarters we were off in due time (2 a. mn.,) under the conduction of an old friend, Capt. Hlaynio, who never fails to give you a pleasant ride, making the 85 miles by a fe w minutes a fter 6 a. m Cold, freezmng, and yet (lark as was the morning, our friend Major S. E. McMil lan, Editor of "the Crescent," with car riage, was ready and waiting to hurry us to a warm fire and breakfast at the parsonage, presided over by his amiable wife and sister. After warming we were led in thiankseriving and prayer by brother McMillan. Yielding to my urgent re quest, these worthy representatives of my charge broke bread and sipped some ecellent coffee with us. Then next week here comes the "Crescent" with compliments. So you see there is .an other clever Editor, besides those of the Newberry Herald. Don't you think a man ought to be pleased with such a re ception and consequients, according? We are at home and well. Yours as before, S. H. B, Wasrington News.

General COMMUNICATED. Monday's Meeting. MEssRS. EDITons-I see that some per sons have called for a public meeting of the citizens of this district, to consider what can be done to save the little property left to our people, by the results of the war, and the drought of last year. It is proper that the people should consult as to any measures which can, under the circumstan ces, ameliorate their embarrassed condition. The courts have annulled all the Acts of the Legislature, which had for their object the relief of the. debtor class; and the Legisla ture at last., as if thoroughly disgusted, or forgetful of the hight ti ust reposed in them, failed to enact or re-enact any law for re lief at all. Tbc Constitution has been con sidered the palladium of our safety, but our strict adherence to its !etter for the last five years, wbile our enemies entirely disregard cd-i:s-obligations, has been our ruin, and since the war, the great love that ou- Judges have evincel for th -t negblcted and defunct instrument, will prove to be the consumma tion of that ruin. The radical party has just now declared by their Acts, that the on.-titution of the United States is not binding upon them, and that this State has no constitution at all. Other States have provieled for he relief of their people, and their Judges have not interfered, and their people have gone to work to pay their debts without cost. Why are the peop'e of this State deuied the same rights and privileges? All power is said by the GQtastitution to be derived fioni the people, and upon them selves depend their own safety. As next Saturday is return-day, and as the disposi tion of our creditor class will be developed before rext Monday, I hope the people will all meet to con.ider what ought to be done to protect themselves from the Shylocks of the country. Let all the people come. JUSTICE. FOR THE HERALD. Ma. EDITOR.-Both you and the read ers of your paper who are interested in the Bible wotk, in South Carolino, will, I trust, he gratified to learn that applica tions for donations of Bibles and Testa ments, are coming in every day from va rious portions of the State. During this a m 'i.h :iplications for books from auxili aries and others have been received amounting in all to over two thousand, (2000) copies. From July 1st, 1865, to March 31st, 1866, the American Bible Society sent into this State, donations of books amounting to 18,578 volumes, to auxiliaries and other Bible distribu tors. Since 1865, and up to this time, 18G07, I have sent every month to the American Bible Society for large, s.up plies of books. This Society cheerfully fils all of my orders. It is the earnest desire of this Society that every destitute reader in South Carolina, should possess a copy cf the Holy Scriptures. What a wonderful Society. It looks to me like a fabric of Providence. May God bless this time honored and Catholic Institu tion. ofwthe to the impoverished condition oftecountry, I find it dirncult to make collections. As Ilam supplying all aux iiaries and others in this State with do nations of -Bibles and Testaments, for gratuitoas distribution among the poor and destitute in the Districts of this State, and to do this work with system, I am obliged to travel over the different Rail Roads, and as freight is paid upon the boxes of books by the parties rece.iv ing them, I think it very hard that 1 should be made to pay my passage to and fro over the Rail Roads, when I am laboring for the public good, and when so many men representing causes not religious, and of much less interest for the public welfare, are favored with com pimentary tickets. I say it to the honor of the patriotic presidents of the Char lotte & South Carolina, Kings Mountain, North-Eastern and Darlington Rail Roads, that they have expressed themselves as considering my work of paramount im portance, and hence pass me free over their roads. As I am the only Bible Agent in South Carolina, why cannot all of our Railroads pass me free on my holy mission. Do they ignore the Bible ? I hope not. I write now so that all of our Bib!e friends and Rail Road Managers in South Carolina may have the opportunity of hearing from me. With esteem and regard, Most truly yours, E. A. BOLLES, Agent. American Bible Society for South Caro lina. Columbia, S. C., Feb. 23d, 1867. CIRCULAR. To THE BIBLE SocrETIlES AND OTHIFER DISTRIB eToRIS OF THlE BiBLE IN SOUTH1 CARo LIN A. DExA BRETIrREN .--As I am aboout pre paring my annual report as Bible Agent for South Carolina, you will please re port to me briefly and immediately the result of Bible distribution in your re spective fields. Those who have liindly sent me interesting and encouraging re ports. will please accept of my thanks. May God bless you for your labor of love. It beiner the earnest desire of the American Bible Society, that every des titute reader in South Carolina, should possess a copy of the Holy Scriptures, let me urge you to keep me advised as to destitutions in your fields, so that all destitute persons may be supplied as soon as possible with the word of God. Donations of Bibles and Testaments, for g-ratuitous distributions will be procured for you, from the A. B. S., if ycu will write to me at Columbia, S. C., and say how many books you want, with the name of your. Consignee in Charleston, S. C., or.any. other convenient port-you pay freight. Let it not he said that we have a dearth of God's word in any por tion of South Carolina, when the Ameri LOCAL ITEMS. TUE CAR of Mr. Teague, Daguerrean Artist still occupies its forner position in front of the Court House, and judging from the number daily seated in it he is doing a fair business, an evidence of his ability to give satisfaction in bis pictures. ARRESTED.-Sheriff Paysinger arrested a man Monday last, who gave several aliases, among others that of Burkead, and Brown, and assumed that of Captain C. V. Hamil ton, of Edgefield. We learn that he threat ed several citizens of our district recently, and shot at others. He is under the custody of the sheriff. Some of our exchanges tell us of the ads vances made in their respective localities. Orangebusg is to have a cotton factory: the town fathers- of Sumter, have ordered the publication of the-proceedingsof council, monthly. in the districrpapcrs; while a half dozen other State exchanges inform us that fire companies are organizing, got gas, etc. Ge-a, Newberry! OUn ITOTEL.-The local having latterly been under a clond has not been able to see other than through a glass darkly some of the changes and improvements going on in town, the most particular of which is the pleasing change in our Hotel, under its present efficient manage ment. We hope that the dark cloud having in part been dispelled, this will be a sudicient apology. Sin :e falling into its present. worthy proprietorship many of the old, ugly features which characterized it of yore have been put through the PooL of cleansing, and under its new dispensation is ihost acceptable and comfortable to the travelling public. And there is no danger of relapse into its former old fogyism, for its gentle manly manager is a host who is able and determined to CH.AsE away everything in the least objectionable. If comforta ble quarters, good cheer, and agreeable appointments will make it a success, Messrs. Pool and Chase will certaiily accomplish that end. Regenerated, rejuvenated, cleansed, purified, refurnished, and with a well ar ranged and systematic ordering in all its departments, the NEW-berry hotel now ranks in the category A No. 1. JEsS iIOLMEs.-TrO~ relieve the great public anxiety and in answer to several deeply interested individs, we state that Jess will be here on sale-day next, wind and weather permit ting, and as his stay will be limited, havmng two other urgent appointments, one a t Frog Level, and the other at. Clinton, appliciitions for srvic must be made in advance, accom panied by the usual fee of dollars and a ball; in Greenback ; no State'money will be received. Hie urges this not as a doubt of its solvency but because of the time wh ich might be:consumed in making discounts. -His familiar friend -will no doubt easily,recognize him, but as there are others who perhaps may not, we state that he is remarkable for ~unusuiu1 size, broad shouldered, and sinster cast of features,'the niist notable of w:hich are a hooked turnip nose, carroty h-ir and redish eyes, and-a slight limp which he acquired duringfthe war of the Con federate conscript 6fficers. Being large of build, unprepossessing in appearance and altogether ignoring the fashions, he has o morbid aversion to small big men, particularly of the big head order, and it will be as well for that class, if there be any, to keep their h6les. PcNe'reAU.-Be . punctual ; in all things up to time. It is a cardinal vir tue, and without it, success is uncertain. The punctual man is an honest man, he values his word and his time, and regards that of others. His promises are kept to the letter, he can be relied on. Some may blunder on, in a sort of hap hazard way and strike a successful vein, but in the main a lack of punctuality will never bring a man through at the right end of the horn. True as gospel. Show us one of this character, and he is always behind time, in a drag, ever in a hurry, has several irons in the fire at once may be, but strikes them all at the wrong time. There is no system in his strikes, and ne ver made a 'ten strike' in his life, except by accident. The great secret is he is not punctual, a half hour later makes but little difference, it can be made up, as there are so mauny hours in the day ; to morrow will do as well as to day, next week as this. its all one, come day, go day, no matter, where's the use of troub ling one's self, fifty years hence it will be all the same. To be sure young man, that looks like the easiest way to shuffle through life, biut it is the hardest in the end, and its disLonest. Think of the trou ble and annoyance to others, in not kieep ing your promise as to time, that busi ness appointment, to pay a debt, or some thing else, in which you either failed en tirely, or were too late in. Ah, there it is, too late ; if the habit is followed faithfully you'll be -late to bed, late to rise, late to business-which gets into a snarl,-late to meals,-and wife grows sour-late for thatjourney, late to church, and ten chances to one too late for Hea ven ! Poor, late fellows, how much to be pitied. The early bird catches the worm, the late get no tit bits, no worms. Were it possible to make a trip to the moon, in an air ship, and only one, to settle the question whether it be made of green cheese, and if so if volcanic, and notice given through the Herald, (by the way one of the best advertising mediums in the country,) that this ship would start on its terial voyage to the distant beyond of doubt, at half-past ten of a specified morning, and that each passenger must have his boots polished or be excluded, the late man would put off the necessary, the all-important polishing till the last whistle of warning blew, and hurry off just in time to see sIhip and passengers Index to New Advertisements.

Merchants of Charleston.-In another column will be found a comprehensive card from the Mer chants of -Charleston, all of whom are pre pared in their various lines, to offer induce ments to the dealers of the up-country, in the spring trade. The facilities enjoyed by the Charleston merchants, the constant ac cession of fast sailing packets and steamers to the various foreign and domestic lines, and the growing opulence of trade with many communities of the South, enables them to rival the trade of other commercial centres. Char'eston, geographically, is eli gi-le as an entre-pot, for vast commercial relations, and she is destined to become a great and flourishing emporium. By deal ing there, our metropolis is built up, the State prospers in direct ratio, and a large economy of time and means is the result.
