Ei.siE MAdooN, or the old Still Ilouse ; by Mrs. Emma D. Gage. This is the title of a well written book, which is intended to show the evils of intemperance, and the direful effects of a "St:ll House" upon the sur rounding community. Scenes of drunken nces quarrelling, murder and bloodshed, follow each other in rapid succession. The-beroic efforts of Elsie Magoon, the younger, to stem the tide of evil and save her young friends from the drunk ard's dootin, are graphically related. We do*not doubt that the pictures are true. Could we read, as in an open book, all tiiebottors wrought by one "StiU House," all the degradation, shaine and gief, we would, without doubt, stand aghast- at the terrible picture. 'Tticse horrors, the book under notice - undertakes to present, and it does' its work well. - The downward progress of -Rieard Magoon, the~builder aid owner of tb "Still House," until his excesses culminate in murderous assaults upon his family, and in a lingering disease which birings himn to a premature grave, is well and feelingly told. We commend the book to the well. wiabers of humanity, and especially to our temperance friends. Fo sale by Duffle & lhapman, Book ellers, Newberry and Columbia, S.

The commencing sess~ion ~ilApea onder flattening circumstances, e* understand. We would advise a rents and guardians, designing to avail themselves of the advantages which Mr. aldy's sebool affords, to make an early ilieton, that their daughters or wards may ynse tiothing by delay. For further p iJsai, tarms, &e., see card .else Witaire pleased to add that the school are:.estifully situated, in the siShfue grounds, affording every 'psp@itysforealthful reer.ation. * ~ T formr nuber we expressed the fear m4te)qngass would take such action upon ga* n.s .aemet mestges: as would ear row the basis of our rlglis stiOl farther. That magabee,n realised.- An Act explanatery of heAct ofMarch 1867. passed both Houses e1%vs that the military, commanders pos,~ uessed the powers which they claimed to the ftiDest extent, but goes further. st~ 'It declares the governments then ex isthUi the rebel States as illegal and if con ?iel subject in all res~pects to the military e6mmanders and to the pairamount authority of Congress. *2d1. It ignores the Pseaet entirely, and subjects the acts of the District comman, dersJo:he approval or disapproval of the General of the Army (now General Grant.) .3d. The power of the District command ers to remove State offieers at will and ap polnt others is clearly affrmed. 4th. The power is also given to the Ger,e" ral of the army of' the United States to sus peud, remove and appoint, State offiers. 5th. The Acts or the District Command era i,n removing persons from onice and s% painting otheud i their stead',are confirmed ; and It is declared that it shall be the duty of such comimanders to remove from offce as a'oresaid all persons who are disloyal to the .Government-of the. United States, or who use their influence In any manner to hinder, delay, prevent, or obstruct, the due and --proper adminIstration of this Act, and the . cts to which it is supplementary." 8. The Boards of Begistration are vested with full powers to judge or the qualifications of persona proposing to register their names a voters, and not to allow the registration ofany parson they may decide not to be r qasified to vote; their action however to be subject to the 'approval of' the District counmanders; and no person Is to -be dis% 'quialiied as a-member of any board of regs, ta*tlon by reason of race or color. 7. The true intent and meaning ofthecoath prescribed 1n' the Supplementayr Act of Marsb, 1867, is declare&ag other things tit)e as f ollosh wit: that no person whro ha.ee a,aiember of the Legislature of any State, os who has held ay excutive or ja, dieMa offie In any State, whether he has taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United States or not, and whether he held such omce at the commencement of' the rebellion, or had held It before, and who was afterward's engaged In insurrection or rebel lion against the United States, or giving aid ibdcomftort to the enemies thereof, is en titled to be registered or to vote, and the wordi "executive or judicial offce in any State," In said oath mentioned, shall be con strued to include all civil offces created by law for the administration of any general law of a State, or for the administration of 8. The time for completing the registra tips Is extended, In- the discretion of' the Distriet commanders, till the 1st October. 9. No persdn shall be entitled, to be regis tered or to vote by reason of any executive pairdon or amnesty. o. aremehrs of h'xrdes of reistratian nn State ofcers sppointrd by the District Cem. manders are required to take the oath of of. flee, known as the "iron clad." 11. The District commanders, members of boards of registration, and persons acting under them, shall not be bound in their ac tion by any opinion of any civil officer of the United States. Such are the main provisions of this Act. The reader will readily perceive that most of the points of construction which it makes are In direct conflict with the opinion of Attorney General Stanberry. The Ac. was intended to destroy the force and effect of that opinion, and at the same time to remove the hand of the President from any and all participation in the work of reconstruction. Henceforth our people should distinctly understand, that the government they are living under is purely military, and that those who hold offices, known to our laws as "civil offices," hold them at the will of the District commanders, and are merely his subordinate agents in carrying on the gov ernment and administering the laws. The effect of this legislation is alto to oust the President of the United States from all authority or jurisdiction in these States, ex% cept in the appointment of federal civiL of ficers. General Grant is now the President of these States. He is our ruler except when Congress intervenes. What an anamolons condition of things! Now may it be asked where is the ship of State drifting? Is it to wards a haven of rest and pestce, or upon fearful breakers? There is enough in the signs of the times to fill every patriot's heart with the worst forebodings. All history is a lie, or these signs, these progressive -steps of a power in the government which acknowl edges no check or control,-no constitution al barrier against its will, are but the terri ble tread of revolution in its mighty, resist. less march. Letter from Gen. Sickles. Gen. Sickles has .ddressed the following letter to the lion. Lyman Trumbull, Chair man Judiciary Committee, United States Senate : Cnt nr.ox, S. C., July 5, 1867.' My DF,an. Sin: I have decided not to be gin registration in this district until Con gress dete: mines who shall be registered. .I trust, therefore, that it will be the pleasure of Congress to extend the time for the com pletion of my registrativn, until-say, Octo ber or November. If I proceed now, and disregard the wishes of the President, my action would be regarded as insuhordina tion ; if I follow his intimations, many would probably be registered not eligible according to the true intet pretation of the Acts of Congress. If it is meant that all who have held any ofiee-Federal, State or municipal-having taken an oath of office to support th' Con stitution of the United States, and after wards engaged in rebellion, or given aid, comfort, etc., arte disfranchised, this should be expressly declared ;-therwise, if left to cons: ruction, it may be held that no other of fleers are included than those classes enu merated in Article VI of the Constitution, and that even as to these a full pardon re moves the disqualifi-ation. If it-is meant to exclude lawyers, they should be expressly mentioned, or else de scribed by some classifieation; as, for ex ample, after the word "office," add "any licensed calling or employment or pro'fes sion." Otherwise, if the eligibility of law yers be Ieft to construction, it ma y be held that a la wyer is not a public offcer, although a functionary of a court or. other judicial body. The tiuth is, we have .now in operation two distinct systems of reconstruction, orig inated by Congress, and engrafted upon the Frasidenat's plan of reconstruction. The first Congressional plan is expressed in the Howard constitutional amendment, leaving suifrage to. be regulated by the several States, and imposing upon cet::in elasses of persons .disqiualification fer office, as a putt ishmexet for rebellion and as a safe-guard for the future. That plan having beeni re fused by the rebel States, Congress passed the reconstruction Acts, which form a sec ond scheme of reconstruct1on, -entirely dis tinct in principle and plan from the former. In the second plant, Congress assumes con trol of the question of suffragi', which is ex tended to all who can take a prescribed oath, and alsp enforces the disqutalification for office, which would haye Me~n the penad and conservative-featur6 of the first plan. Now, it seems to mec that the -true conserva tive guarantee against reaction is in the ad dition made to the loyal vote by the en franchisement of the colored people. That being done, the occasion for the disqutalifi cation clause ceases. Hence the true solu tion, I believe, is to declare, with universal suffrage, a general amnesty-naming the exceptions. A more liberal amt,esty is, in my judgment, essential to the success of the C;ongressional plan of reconstruction. It will en!arge the range of popular choice for the important juidicial, executive and legislattive depa rt'aents of the State Govern ments,,. otherwise inconveniently confined to classes very few of whom are fit to hold offi'e. The people can surely be entrusted to judge and select fronm those who took parr in the rebellion, the men at once qualified and sitncere in their adhesion to the new order of things. Such men, being eligible to oficee, will have motives to identify them selves with reconstruction, and to support the 'views of the majority. Now, more than ever, men of ability andl experience in publie business are needed for the State governmetts in the South ; and it is truly unfortunate that at such a moment nearly all who know anything of public affairs, and especially those who could fill judicial 'statious, are disfranchised. This exposes the experiment of general suffrage to need less hazards. *If the experiment fail, it is most likely to fail from the inability of the people to put in office those who could and would assure success. It would hive been advantageous, perhaps, to have rem ,ved many disaffected persotns, especially judges, aheriffs and magistrates, in the execution of the sixth section of the Act of 2d March, if competent successors could have been found among those who are eligible -to office. And I would regard tyy'possession now of a wider fitld..oidhoice for civil officers, as one of-the most effective instrumentali ties in the execution of the military author ity conferred upon District Comtmanders. As it is, I find myself prevented, as will the people by arnd by, from securing for the public atrvice men of aptitude and charac ter, whose repentance is as certain as the devotion of the most consistant loyalist. In truth, the zeal of some of the converts out-runs the discretion of manty of the faith fuL With reference to other pra.ctical sog. gestions, it might be useful if Congress, by one of its committees, interrogated the commanding officers of the several Districts upon the operation of the reconstruction Acts, and the~further legislation required. Very respectfu:ly, D.EH.SIC KLES. FRECKLES.-At this season of the year, many of our lady readers are annoyed with freckles. They will thank us for a simple way for removing them, which is to take powdered salpetre and apply it to the parts affected, with the finger moisted and dipped into the powder. This is the whole proceeding, and when properly done and judiciously repeated, it will remove all the freckles. - Maine papers ar e horrified at the in LOCAL ITEMS. Do You WANT GOOD SEED '-Anid of seve ral of the best varieties too ? And of the new crop, fresh, and warranted? See Dr. Conins card ; he has just received a large lot of all the favorite kinds. ICE CREAx.-Ed. Young respectfully gives notice that he will have delicious cream-lemon, pine-apple, rose, vanilla and other flavors ; also pound cake, pies, tarts, &e, every day this-week, at Mr. A. M. Ri. ser's Stand. DIsTRIcT CouR.-This Court (Judge Y. J. Pope, presiding,) commenced its sitting on Monday last, and as the dock et seemed pretty full, will perhaps con tinue several days, if not the week. The cases are principally indictments for lar ceny and assault and battery. The at. tendance is fair. TornsFaus\r.-The - simple announce ment that the young men of Newberry pro pose giving a Tournament at the close of College Barbecue, is all that we can say just now, and will notice at another time. There will alsobe given on the 1.5th a Fan cy Dress Ball. Prepare for these entertain ments. A RARE CHANCE.-To a young man of limited means, desirous of taking a course of Lectures in Medicine and Surgery an opportunity is now offered which will prove to his advantage if availed of. The scholarship offered for sale, as will be s,en in advertisement, can be had at a bargain if applied for soon. STAMP YOUR PAPERS.-AS a matter of public and general interest we would call attention of parties, who may have for gotten, to the important fact., that all papers requiring stamps should be stamp ed prior to the 1st of August, prox. Otherwise they will be liable to the pen alty or fine. Any party having interest in such unstamped papers or instruments of writing can affix the stamp. TwINs.-Mathias-surnamed Miller the indefatigable-has laid upon our table a large, very large, rosy-red and well-formed twin tomatto. The table, in attempting to cut the pigeon wing last week, nearly broke one of its legs, which owing to the pressure, has not yet been. mended. Re solved, therefore, that friends, having sack samples of the large wheat crop of 67, will wait until on and after Saturday next, the 20th inst., before they "rush ini," as the table will be all right on that day. B. T. Randolph. (colored) addressed the~colored people at the Court Ifouse, Monday hight last. Considering that lhe is a radical, his remarks wyere mildl and generally well put. Of course, fi-om a conservative stand-point, some of hiq sentences were illogical, to us. Radical ism and conservatism arc antipodes. He spoke freely and quietly to a large number of his people, and gave them some advice about education, labor, hon' esty, industry economy, voting, &c. TOE L.DIF.s FArn.-We refer to card in another column, which gives the pleas ing announcement, that the ladies of the Methodist Church propose giving a Fair on the first Monday in October. Their object is praise-worthy and will attract the sympathies of a generous community, the Church being sadly out of repair, and no means within itself of effectin. the necessary repairs, We think the time set apart very opportune, the heat of summer will then be over, and bubi ness better then than at any other peri od in the interval. We may be permit ted to state that this Fair has been long in contemplation, but owing to unavoid able circumstances has been postponed from time to time, until now it is deemed necessary to fix a set time, and make the announcement public. if the lady managers will pardon, us, we would suggest, that all persons, fiencd ly disposed to this charity and work of love, may contribute articles of Fancy Needle work, or other character appro priate for such an occasion, which we have no doubt will be received and high ly appreciated by the managers, whose names will shortly be given. The Mexican authorities having re fused the request of the commander of the Austrian frigate Elizabeth for the boidy of Maximilian, we now learn, per cable, that the Austrian Governmtent will immediately despatch a fleet for the body. The New York Tribune observes: "All the European Governments show the most intense excitement, and it can hirdly be doubted that, but for the UJni ted States, a newv and formidable combi nation Qf European powers against the republican Government of Mexico Would be formed." A young lady bought a new basket in St. Louis the other evening, for pic-nic purposes. Before she left the store the basket, with a card bearing her name at tached, was stolen. The next morning the basket, with a baby in it, was found at the door of a respectable citizen, with the card still appended, and the young lady was called upon for ant explanation, which she readily gave, and was dis missed from her awkwat d position. BosToN S-rI.L ENGAGED IN THlE SLAvE TRAD.-The following item appears in the Albany Journal: A.gentleman from near Columbia, S. C., a prominent leader during the war, pur-chased, a few weeks ago, in Cuba, where he has a plantation, one of his for mer slaves, who had been landed and sold by Boston skippers.

Young men on matrimonial tl'oughts intent will accept the following "Drill" and practice accordingly : 'Fall in' love with some industrious young woman. 'Attention' pay to her faithfully and respectfully. 'Right face' in popping the question, like a man. "Quick march" to her parents and ask their consent. 'File right' with her to the church, and go through the service of matrimonyv. 'lalt' and reflect serious ly upon the new duties which you have assumed, and then perform them. 'Right about face' from the haunts which you have frequented when single and prefer your own home. 'Advance arms' to your young wife when walking out with her. and never leave her to trail behind. 'Break ofi' staying out at night and other bad habits if you wish to have a happy home. The following little story shows that the telegraph will sometimes make mis takes, and often of a very ludicrous character : It seems that a gentleman of Albany telegraphed to some New York ladies, to announce the advent of a lady who was going to that city to complete1 er bridal TROUsSEAU. The wires, by some hocus pocus peculiar to electricity, delivered the message as follows: "Miss-goes down this evening to complete her bridal TROWSERS." It was cruel in the o.perators to credit the expectant bi de with so early a de sire for the emrblems of authority in the wedded state. Still there could be no zreat harm done by the insinuation, as it is generally supposed that brides, though they may not prepare the article in advance, will eventually come into possession of a pair of trowsers. Miss Julia discourses eloquently and her theme is a popular one. She 'says: Oh! the bonnets of my girlhood-the kind I wore to school. I really thought them pretty then-1 must have been a fool. And yet I used to think myself on hats a jaunty miss; perhaps I was, as fashion went-but what was that to thisl Oh ! the lovely little buckwheat cake-the .charming little mat! it makes my head so level, and so very, very flat. Oh ! a sister's love is charmirg, as every. body knows, and a handsome cousin's love is nice (that is, I should suppose); and the love of a true lover is a love that cannot pall-but the love of new bonnets is the dearest love of alL. A Lawyer built him an office in the form of a hexagon, or six square. The novelty of the structure attracted the at tention of some Irishmen who were-pass ing by ; tihey madea full stopand v'iewed the building very critically. The law yer, somewhat disgusted at their curiosi ty, lifted up the-window, put his head out and addressed them: "What do you stand there for like a pack of block heads, gazing at my office ; do vou take it for a church ?". "Faix," answered one of them, "I was thinkin' so, till 1 saw the devil poke his head out of the windy." The same lawyer it is said made the folloni ing charge against a client : "For waking np in the night and thinking of your business-five dollars." At a printer's restival, the following was the fifth regolar toast : "The editor and the lawyer--the devil is satisfied with the copy pf the former, but re quires the origirial of the latter." An afflicted widower writes to an un dertaker: "Sur-My wat'is ded, and Wants to be berried to-morro. At Wunnor klock. U nose wair to dig the hole-hi the side of mi Utber waifs-let it be deep."

A PLEASANT SUMMER D)RINK. --To five gallons of cold water, add one quart of sound corn and two quarts of molasses. Put all into a keg. Shake well, and in two or three days it will be fit for use. Bong tight. It may be flavored with es sence of spruce or lemon. The corn will last to make five or six brewings. If it becomes sour, -add more molasses and water. It is a che.ap and simple beer, and is called very good. A Yankee girl says this. An old colored preacher and school teacher in Columbus, Ga., was asked, the other day, what party he belonged to now. Like a 'man and a brother," he replied: "Don't b'hong to no party, sah; loves all good people jes alike ; prays for all jes alike." "Then," said the-inquirer, "you are a philanthropist." "No, sah, I isn't dat-dat I isn't-I'se a Babtist, sah ; a-Babtist." The first line of the nesv Radical song be gins thus: "Well hang-Horace Greeley on that sonir.apple .tree, because lie helped to TuAD. STEVENS ON CONFISCATION.- A correspondent of the New York Herald professes to have had a conversation with Thad. Here is part of it: Question-Do you still adhere to the policy of confiscation ? Mr. Stevens-I look on the leading rebels of t,he South as great criminals, who have not yet expatiated their crimes. They have entailed upon the loyal people, by their voluntary and wicked acts, much sorrow and suffering the loss of millions of treasure and hun dreds of thousands of lives. They have done this in the very worst cause that could be conceived-in an attempt to break up a noble, benificent and free Government. They have waged upon us a flagrantly unjust war. They de serve to have imposed upon them the heaviest penalties of war, now that they are conquered. But as they are our countrymen I would be merciful to them. I would not take their lives, and I would not beggar and oppress them. But if I had my way, I would, at the very least, impose upon the rich men of the ex-rebel territory-those who have come out of their wicked struggle with large wealth a mild confiscation, sufficient to pay the loyal men of the South all they have lost by confiscation at the hands of the rebels, and Northern men all the damages they have suffered by rebel rai.Is and inva sions. There are thirty or forty thous and rich rebels in the conquered terri tory, whose wealth would suffice to pay these claims, and yet not leave them beg gars. These classes of sufferers by the war have no other means or hope of ob taining repayment for their losses, and it is but just that they should be repaid.-; * 4W "HE SHoT ALL BUT ME "-IWVen Gene ral Braxton Bragg commanded the army of Tennesseee, one day, while on the march, he suddenly came upon one of the "ragged" butternut fraternity, who was j t then busily engaged in plunder ing aarden. The general drew up, and in that clear, ringing voice, which once heard on the field of battle is not readily forgotten, called out "To what command do you belong !" Butternut was caught ; he recognized the general, and he knew the man he had to deal with. Assuming a green, gawky manner, he answered as follows: "Mister, I did belong to Mr. Bragg's company; but he shot all but me !" This was a little too much, and drawing his hat over his eyes and com pressing his lips, the general rode on, and let the last man of his "company" live. DEEP VS. SHALLOW PANS. -M. A. Rich ardson, Esq., of Sherman, New York, says: "Whether more cream can be obtained from deep or shallow pans is' an easy matter to settle, without even an experi ment. It takes time for cream to rise; therefore it will rise in a shallow pan sooner than in a deep one, and conse quently, in warm weather, when milk will thicken in a few hours, shallow pans should be used, or the cream will be caught in the thicked milk and the skim mer won't find it. But in cooler weath er, when, milk will remain thin 'long enough for the cream to uise, deep pans are preferred by sonme. Even then, sweeter butter can be made from shallow pans." The Editor of an exchange, in making an appeal to his subscribers wb'o are in arrears, to pay up, says: 'We hope they will 'settle' without dle lay. Not that we want the money-oh, no ! Our ink is given to us, we steal our paper, and we win our printer's wa ges at seven up. So it costs us nothing to carry on business. -Nevertheless, as a matter of accommodation, and to ease their consciences, we will take what they owe us, if they will send it immediately.' -Anothkr editor thus nudges his delin quent subscribers: 'We don't want 'money desperately bad, but our creditors do, and they no doubt owe you. If you pay us, we'll pay them, an2 they'll pay you.' BIT BY A SnKIE.-The paragraph fol lowing, from the Fort V'alley Gazette, may help somebody: Last week, as a negro was p1. wing a piece of new ground belonging to Mr. Skellie, he was bit on the foot by a rat tle snake. On going to the house, and tell ing his tale, a chicken was split open and applied to the wound. While this was being done, a bottle of whiskey was sent for. In a short while, the chicken turned green, and the feathers were ready to drop off. It was then taken off, and some red oak ponlt ices were applied. The negroe's foot was much swollen, when last seen, but he is now considered out of danger. A DELICATE RE.QUEST.-A fellow went into the clerk's office the other day to get a marriage certificate. After looking at the instrument a while, he beckoned the clerk aside. 'See here, mister,' said he, confidentially-'can't you date the thing back about two months?' The clerk assu'-ed him that he could not. 'Well,' said he, I don't care anytbiug about it myself but 'her folks rather in sist upon it !'
