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.

and that cornections are made (huthI

enterprise and recnperative power dis
played. It is cheering and hopeful.

T)CAL ITEMS.
Six FFE, TWO. -Mr. M. Btizhardt of!
this district has shown us a bundle of
white oats grown on his land, which is
the tallest we have ever seen, measuring
just six feet two inches in height. It
cannot be beat we imagine.
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

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

"Then, tl:a," replied the maiden, "how
shall I ever show the beauty of tv
flounced panttalets, that has almost ruin

I don't care if tire beaux do look at me."
Of course she is right, the younger

A lady says the first time she was
kissed sYe felt like a tub of roses swim

in ch-iriots driw n by angels, shaded hy
honey-suckles, and the whole spread with
mcelted rain bows.
That fema:lc showed a proper apprecia

to say so. She wyill do.

DrssArorNmxt:Nrs. -"Bessed are they
whIo expect nothin:g," fes, thrice blessed:
they kniows no disa ppoinctment. This lo
al is used to~ disappointment, something
is always e xpneted wvhich rarely comes;
sotmething is looked for to ''turn up,"
between each paper and the nex t; it
rarely does though, but should it, its
nearly always a blank. 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. T1is was enough surely,
but not al. We conclriel to have a
ness of fish of our own catching, by
way of cotnsvhiti)n, but were disIppoint
ed; failed to catch them. Failed t 1 at
tcnci temperance n et ing and1 hear the
addresses, fell :msldep too soon, sadty dis
app)ointed again. IIad an invite to the
comittry, honor of com pany, good dinner,
tir.t g-irden vegetables, send for you soon
in the morning ; waited one, two, three
hours, all day, waiting yet, never sent.
Wan:ed then to attenl Mount Pl asant
meeting, have a good time there, but
bad luck had the ascendancy, it H as no
go, yea of a verity. We' nght go on,
sillee it we have recovet ed, and are still
hoping.
