N6w Year-New Volume. With the commencement of this ano ther Volume, January 1st, 1868, we con gratulate ocrslves and the readers of the Herald on the prospect of a favora ble journey through another year, 'and return our hearty thanks for the ready ai.1 and co-operation of subscriber and advertiser, which have enabled us suc eessfily to combat the vicissitudes, and ride thriugh the storms of the past twelve months. The difficulties have been ninny, the financial pressure great, but thaiks to.a liberal support and kind sii'pathy, in spite of embarrassments, t'ic flerald rides the wave which ushers i.n the new year of 1868, with all her colors flying, and though there may be a deficiency in the old -ship's lockers just at present, owing-to short collections, yet it is confidently believed and hoptd, that the motto of "short accounts and long friends," and plenty of the latter, will carry her successfully through. Again thanking our readers and frienods, we wish them a happy nrw year, and that after a pleasant voyage, January '69 may flU I us ALL. "right side up," politically, swially and financially.

The Scientific American. A prospectus of this sterling an.d splen did paper will he foand in our advertising columns. Men of every profession, far mer, mechanic, chemist or manufacturer will be benefitted by taking it, and we recommend it to them as the best paper they can take. Specimen numbers sent o i application to Munn & Co., 87 Park Row, N. Y. An Indejiendcat Pamnily. We clip the following from the Cam den Johurnal, and recommend its perusal and adoption :. A friend of ours, with whom we spent a couple of nights, a few weeks ago, with the aid of his two sons, one scarcely large enough to plough, made this year, three bales of cotton, upwards of four hundred bushels of corn, one hun dred bushels of peas, two hundred bush els sweet potatoes, besides Irish potatoes, pinders, &c., and had thirteen~ hogs ready for the knife, which would nett him 2000 to 2300 pounds of poi-k, with flour suffi cient to serve him until harvesting his next crop of wheat, of which he has planted largely. His crop was all har vested and housed, his lots and stables well fil'ed with litter, and the boys were taking holiday after their year's work. His wife and one daughter attend to all the household and domestic affairs, and clothe (handsomely) the family, con sisting of eight, from wool raised on the plan tation. Our friend lives in the Sand Hills, and plants sandy land, but since freedom, has adopted the system of plan ting the richest portions, leaving the other to rest and recuperate. Is such a family dependent on cuffy ? SOUH CiaOLIrA CoNFERENc.-At the late Conference the Secretary reported an apparent decrease of membership of tea lo cal preachers, 944 white, and an actual de crease of'7,442 colored members. There was an absence of forty-eight clerical members, caused no doubt by the tight times; one of the ministers having received less than fifty dollars during the last Conference year, for his support. So how do the poor fellows live, let 'lone go to Conference. Let's not kick up a row abont their absence. "That" was painful LOCAL ITXXB. Ro.wERy.-The store of Messrs. Suls bacher & Co., near Chappell's Depot, was forcibly entered on Monday night, the 23d ult, by eight men, who tied the clerks, and riled the place, carrying off about $1,000 worth of goods. They have not been yet caugbt, altbough a file of men furnished from the post at Colum bia, were sent in pursuit. DEPiauRE.--The garri.Aon under the command of Major McCleary, left here on Monday last for Charleston, in accordance with late military changes. The Major and other officers connected with the command, have been in our midst for a period of eight months, and by their un affected and quiet deportment during that time, gained the esteem of our citi zens. A RARE CHANCE AND NO MISTAKE Messrs. Carwile & McCaughrin as will be seen in advertisement, have wisely de termined to offer their large and elegant stock of fancy and staple dry goods at New York cost. We advise the reader that there is no catch in this, the goods will e sold as the advertisement 'states, or we are much mista'(en in the charac ter of these gentlemen. Try them and be convinced. We again invite attention to the card oC that sterlii- e-tablishment-the Charleston Dry Good House of Messrs. Stoll, Webb& Co. Their facilities for business are excel lent, and %arranted by the -conmanding patronage the house enjoys. Great induce Ments are offered to retail traders, planters and citizens generally. Don't forget the Charleston Wholesale Dry Goods House, 287 King-st. PKaso.AL-%We had the pleasure last week of neeting with another friend of the old regime-Capt. C. B. Sig*ald, Charles ton Chief of Police. Mr. Sigwald'a visit to our town was induced for the benefit of his health. and we are pleased to' know that under a happy conbinati6n of up.eouutry influenees,added to tlhe charming and genial hospitalities of his friend George Larsen, whose guest he was,Lis physical condition is materiully improved. H"nsoxF JTOCK OF Snoks -One of the most complete stocks of Ladies, Gentle men and Children's dress and walking shoes this side of Charleston, can be found at the shoe house of Abrama, Griffin & Hargrove. The supplies for this house are always care fully selected by that veteran shoe-dealer McDufle Metts, who can tell with the glance of half an eye what a shoe is worth..Mia' want Qf elegant, neat,fitting _and durable shoes at low figures1 will remember* the house of Abrams, Griffin & Hargrove. Tax HOLrI.AYS-WEATHEa, &C.--Christ nmas week was a festive season hereabout. BlIls, soirees, parties,Christmas trees, gifts, surprises, etc., lent their respective charms 4odayona youth nd* nellow age alike. Even the colored folk held' fairs and festivals and deported themselves well. The weather in the early p1rt of the weeR was oppressively w.arm, and the streets were filled with vehi ec', pedestri:ans and dogs. Saint Nicholas was Lavish, fablion brilliant, and the "devil" carried off the smuahi change. 'But to-day the weather- is freezing cold.' Ice, and sleet and !snow cover the ground ;. and the old year expires amid solemn requiems and se pulebral dirges. suing by the spritels of th'e North wind's breath. Tue CnurmAs TREwES.--The Metho dist and Baptist Sund:iy Sc-hools of 'this place hadl a joy ful gala exhiibition at their respective-churches on Christmas night. The different schools' of the town, ldge ther with superintcndents and teachers, were all invited to each and turned out in large number to witness the interest ing proceedings. The trees were beau tiful in their arrangement of tapier lights, fruits and fancy presents, and made each little heart throb with pleasurable anti cipation, and gratified reality, while the grateful prayers, the happy songs, and appropriate addresses, filled the hearts of both audiences with joyful emotions. By a mutual arrangement the exhibi ti:miiS were at different hours, tn enable each to enjoy the whole, the Methodist being the first illuminated. This was a beautiful cluster of Holly, sparkling with red berries, tapers, fruits, birds, presents, the whole surmounted by two angels, and appropriate motttoes. The exercises being opened with singing, Rev. Mr. Zea ly, of the Baptist school offered prayer to the Giver of all good, then came sing ing, followed by a short address from the Rev. J. WV. Humubert, the concluding song, and the distribution of presents by superintendent, Mr. jMoorman. Imme diately after, the happy throng proceeded to the Baptist Church, which ,r-as bril liantly lighted, the doors of which being soon thrown open, revealed a handsome Cedar, elegantly festooned, fruited, light ed, loaded as the other with presents, and capped with a large figure of old Santa Claus. The exercises here were' similar ; except that prayer was offered by the Rev. J. W. Humbert, and the ad dress by superintendent Y. J. Pope, Esq. Here too the singing was beautiful. We would like to have given a fuller descrip tion, and such an one as these beautiful exercises demand, but are compelled through want of time to close with this imperfect sketch. We have been requested by Rev. Sidi H. Brown to say to correspondents and sub scribers to the "Christian Neighbor," that his address is Columbia, S. C., where he hopes to commence the publication some time during the ensuing year. It is desirable that those who wish to subscribe, should write to him at the earliest convenience.
