NEWBERRY, S. C. Wedneslay Morning, .neo 5, 1867. Mr. Stanberry's Opinion. Although voluninous, it-is not gene rally clear, an;i leaves in involvtent and obscurity, much upon which more light was desired. Owving to its extreme length. we have not space to spare for it, publication. Death of-Mr. C. .. Ilford. We regret to icarn the death of Mr. C. J. Eifurd, a protnin.ent and beloved citizen of Greer vile C. II. IIe was a member of the Baptist Church, and a zealous advo; cate of Sunday Schools. A number of beautiful euioginms by the members of the Greenvi:le Bar, were paid the memory and worth of Mr. ElCord. It is said of him that he precen:e in i tion whenver possible, and in every case brought to him, which adnitted of conpro wise and reconciliation, he advised that course. In all the walks of life he was dis tinguished ; and bequeathes a name to his children that the proudest of the earth might desire. The Blue Ridge Railroa. Gen'l. Sup't. B. Sloan, of the G. & C. R.

SALE-DAY-Cam and passed off with out anything special to relate. Fewer people were here than is usually the case, we suppose owing to the fact tl.nt farmers are busy juzt now getting out of the grass, and mal ing a s:art towards harvesting their ?heat. TnE M rrius-of Friday night at the Cru:t 1 lme, and on Saturday at Mount Pleasant Church, were n'ell attended. Addresses were delivered at the first by Mr. W. Spearman and Capt. Y. J. Pope. At the latter by Capt. Pope and the Rev. Mr. Black. Tle addresses were good, and accessions were made to tho already large number which the society now justly boasts as belonging to the grand temperance army. Music's DELICIOUS-Au. HOW SWEET! We were the recipient of a serenade several nights ago. It was grand. We have not been able, however, to learn n hether it was Gideon's band, or the Evening or "Morning Star Troupe." The latter no doubt, as the enrapturing melody broke upon the stillness of the morning air near the "wee smra' -hours avant the twal." The arti-ts need but one instrument more to render their tout ensemble complete-n Jewsharp. ACCOMMODATING.-One of the most populat lines of travel now is the Laurens, R. R. ; under the new regime it even excecd: its former reputati 'n for accom nodation, and le;;t our word be do:ubted. we are happily able to 'urni.sh proof. One day last week, while th. train was bowling along, two lit te girls t re ob served standi: near the track, each w ith a biskut , f cherries, which they wished to dispose of; they looked for the train to be stopped, which would have been dine had th-o conductor been awake at the mnonent, but to tihe disappnintment of the lit tle misses it continued its courise. WVhat now t hough t t hey-, our ch en ies mus.t be sold ; for a moiment only did they seem troubled, for the younger said "let ius overtake it sister, coime-" And sure enough they did walk up arid over tak.e it, sold thieir cherrieu, made change, and got their m1 neCy, all the while the tra was in mortion. This comes from the "'reliable gentleman," who is now travelling for this local departmnent. XWELL's REAPrR.-W\e had the pleasure on Monday last of n itnessing the work ing of Mr. O.,burn Well's Reaper.. This :maebiine cuts eieaner than can be done by hand and throws the wheat. out in even piles for the binders, four or five oif whom are keint as busy as bees in ieing upe. It will cut ten acres per daiy, andI( do the~ work cleanly, there being little if any wastr'. We congratulate our enterprising andl go-a'head townsmnan ini having secured so admirable a labor saving-maebine ; and believe that it will re turn bim the cost in saving ot time and waste in the ctting of his own wheat, which is eid to be equal to the best, and about seventy acres ini extent. Our friend Thod. F. Harmfoni and his new buggy and fine rie, will accept thanks for a drive to Mr. Well'n tield, otherwise we might net have had that satisfa ct ion. TrlE WFArm:n. AND Caors.-The de lightful weather of the last fortnight has signally assisted the grow th of vegetation. Under its inflluence the cotton plant has r;early recovered from the ill-effects of the very cool nights which some tme since prevailed. Ard we are told by observing farmers that there is a good stand in the district. Corn generally ooks well, but we are afraid that there is not quite enough planted, yet the yield of wheamt and oats we hope wili atone this time for any deficiency in that crop. The oat crop is a considerab!e one. and loo!-:s very fine--while the wheat (the farmers nill be hard at work gather ing it this and next week) hends its countless millions of heaids to the breeze ielling us thereby that they are full. We have heard .some little said about "rust," hut do niot apprehend much dan ger from that source.' Should no heavy storms of wind or hail arise within the next two weeks, Newberry will exult in much more than an average yield of wheat. We have heard it said abotut an average crop and a half. SING!-LA i'.-Paissing~ along Main street a' the vicin ity of the brick hotel on Mon ey afternoon, e'r attention was attract cby seeing a raL''er unusual cri*d (d citizens, both fron> town ana country-,.I n hose gesticulations andl loud tone:s re minded us of war times, when intelligence of battles fought and won would be re h narsed and discussed ; we w~ere alarmed, and to satisfy ourselves as to the cause, elbowved into the crowd arid enquired tie reason of such a gathering, and such unwonted excitement. It was someu time befi;re we could get tihe attention of the person addlressed to our humble self. A t length, how ever, t urning around he replied, "'what, have you not heard the news, anid what he has done ?"' "No, what news? whose (lone?" "Bksyour igore.nce," saiys he, why Webb, the man from the corner- over the way, he'sgone" "gone !" was our astonished exclamation, "whleu did lie go ?" "Pshaw," he re plied, "the fool killer ought to take you u, he'c .,t gne on but goe and CPICE.-THE CHIooN. We sat at the Poet Machine, last night, Examining here and there, Tho-e parts, which should have been clean and bright, And the screws that once sccmed ever so tigh t, We found to he loose, .-nd covered quite With the rust seen everywhere. We held in our hands a black Chignon, We wish;d to an.,l:zc To see how short. how broad, and how long Were those litric ttbing, with chtws and prong That live therein (as per Doctor Song) And daiiy multiplies. We ff nnd the thing all covered with thread Evenly knoned here and there, Round t'nd flat like a loaf of bread, And stuffed in-ide with chopped up beard, At least. such hair came not from a head; Of this, we could almost swear. Of all th-ngs ttei in dressing the head, Of t'nmen young or old, 1 he Chignon rnde from the quick and dead, la the vi:e,t comipounpl ('o 't, s:tid ) And shou!d be hunned byi all who dread, Contact, with tnter and mould. The Machine we hoped would grind it up, And seprarte all irs parts. But The Chignon we foun<l to hind it up, So we cou d not even wind it up, And in despair we resigned it up i'o other hands and arts. We advise the pioprietor of the ma chine from which the above was turned out to let the vexed sulject alone. The machine may be irrecoverably ruined. We know a man, a good indul!gent hus band and father, who bought each his .xife and six girls one of these horri'le head baltoce, and since that time has had no peace. Strange noise, are heard at night and he thinks-thC house haunted. Let the chignon alone. "My dear," said Mrs. Dogherrv to her daughter, ' o shoulltd not hold your f dress so very high in crossing the street." "Then, tl:a," replied the maiden, "how shall I ever show the beauty of tv flounced panttalets, that has almost ruin ed tuv eyesight to ntinnfacture? I'm sure I don't care if tire beaux do look at me." Of course she is right, the younger Dogbenv. Suppose the beaux do or will lotk, whose 1~1ult is it? isl in ais a great prompter of laziness.

A lady says the first time she was kissed sYe felt like a tub of roses swim in innoe, cologne, nutmnegs aind eran berries.

We care not; for we~ are strong in hope, its our sheet an chor, we stand by it, and though week af.er week no turn tup occurs, but some times a "t utn down" instead, yet we live, move and have a regular being. So much for hab,it, for system. Some weeks, how e-e,i areth not so ell, thea nse-r to ed out to grasp the something just ready to turn up, but closes full of thin air. It is then time to knock under, but we will not vet. le past week was unfa vorable; losses were heavy ; first 0,1,50 by a promised new subscriber, who went so far as to take out his noney, but who went still fut ther and put it back again into his capacious pocket, and never sub scribed at all. Good for nothing fellow, we wou!d not serve a negro so. Next an old patr. n loses his gold specs, and de termines to advertise for th mI through the IIeraid, but before doing so finds them. thus making us the loser ngain of $1,50 mrte.
