Dr M. is a graduate of the Pennsylvania Gollege of Dental Surgery, and is thoroughly conversant with the practice of his pro fesbion. We regret the neces,,ity which prevented his locating in this his native district, and bespeak for him a liberal patronage. The Vote. Gen. Canby makes the following re port for North and South Carolina: In North Carolina-there are 106,721 white and 72,932 colored voters, nearly all of whom voted. It is estimated that 19,477 whites and 3,28D blacks failed to register, and of these 11,686 whites are disfranchised. In South Carolina, there are 46,882 white and 80,550 black votelps registered; 10,992 W! ites and 4,167 blacks- failed tr register. About sever.ty-five per. cent. of the whites are disfranchised. ----e+ Smething Worth Knowing. A few weeks-ago, Cyrus W.

The policy was produced, with the dividend additions, and a calca.ttion was made by the agent, the result showing that, should he die after having the insurance for twenty-four yars, his faniily would re' ceive more than six thousand doHlars over and4 above all premiums paidi, with comn pound interest ad,ded at six per cent. The result seemed so incredible, that he,- thor oughily investigated it hiimself, and finding the c aleldirs correct, increased his in smauce to one hmnidred thousand dollars, taking 20t0.in the Equitable, and policies of$lu,o00 each in seven other companies, all of a bieb are mutual.

Synod adjourned on Tuesday, after a harmonious and interesting session in which much business of interest to this branch of the Christian Church was ac complished, and we regret that owing to indikp!sition we were not peifmitted to attend Synod throughout, whereby a part of its deliberationis migit have been given to the reader. On Sunday the appointments for ser vice in the various churches of the town, were full, and of a gratifying character, and the discourses which were of a high order wtre deliver ed to large and well pleased audirces. The appointments were as follows: In the Lutheran. Church, Morning, Rev. T. W. Dosh, of Va., Night, Rev. D. I. Dreher. The Sabbath School of this Church was addressed in the morning by the Rev. J. I.

Deprecating division in the ranks of anetv Convention is Ii kely to produce, the executive committee, through the Phonix. strongly urges unity of feeling, mod unity of action, and there can be no question, but that of all times and~ pe -iods~, the present is no time for dissen ion or division, The Advertiser pub ishes resolutions by the Executive 3onmit,tee of Edgefieldl, calling for a neeting on the first Monday in June; mad that the chairman of the Central omiittee.and other Democratic organ t.ations confer as to the proprie'ty of :allin.g a general Convention on the second Tuesday in June. In response o~ tiPs, the Charleston Courier and J!ercury publishes the following: "T~he undersigned unite ini a-call for a rneetin.g of the Democratic party of 'harleston District, to be held on Satur lay evening, 23d- inst., at 8 o'clock, for heyurnose of cousidering a response o bhe invi.ation of the Democracy of Edge ield District, to umeet in Convention in 'oluinubia, and nominate delegates to-the ational Demneratic Convention, to be eld-in Newv York.on. the 4th of July."

Our fellow-citizens of Edgetield iave taken position and call upon the ktate to respond. We cannot be silent." The Phonix says: If it is supposed that the late Convention did not repre ~e:t the sentiments of the people of the State, then let them try that sentiment, mod they will then, we~ trust, *be satis ~id; they will then, we trust, unite cor liialy with the people, and not disunite hiem by groundless complaints. It may >e that these gentlemen are correct, but vre are prepared to abide the issue and hie trial. Our advice now to South aTrolina is expressed in one word, UNITY! UNITY!!

In 1860, each individual owed two follars and sixty cents of the public.debt; in 1868 each owes about $80.

And first, the PhiladelpliMercury,Democrat, says: We have received -the glorious news of the Presi'dent's acqiuittal on the eleventh count of jhe indictnenit by a derisive cdnstitutional vote. In the shining list of brave patriots and true statesien who votedl for, acquittal, we are pleased %o find ihe names of Fessen den, Trumbull, V.mi Winkle, Grimes. Hlendersosi, Dixon, Doolittle, Patterson, Roass, Fowter, Johnason and Norton. The New York Eqpress, Democratic: There is greatt joy in this city over the acquittal of tue Pr-esident among our -best citizens engae in business, as well as amoIng thes'e w ho are of the retired and thoughtful chLs. :The Jacob,ins have :all alongt been t hang us that not tL) re move the Pr e%ident .as to "incite bland shed;" "precipitate a conafhet," etc. But nobiody is p:ecipitating a conflict,- and nobM~~y is sheddi4tganybody's blood. The New York Tfiine, Repioblicaa: -Ever y sort of appliance had been; resorted .ta.between Tuesday and Satur;day to Se i-ure tne rerjum n'iilider of ~ntsiar conviction ; and every .kind of means had beeni used to get those Seatotrs who were' considered dodbtfal, or w~ho were supposed o~favor conviction on anty par ticular article, to concentrate their votes upon some one or other .of- them. But all these efforts have been resisted, and forever distinguished in the most noble way among Republicana Senators will be the namnesof Trumbull, Fessenden, Ross, Hlederson, Grimes,' Fow-ler and Van Winkle. The New -York Herald :-Cowardlv, contemptible, mean to the last, impeach mtent has been beaten to death like a vile reptile-inf its cho~sen ~p1-ice of refuge. -The Baltimore Ameriean, Radical: This fatiare to impeach will~ eertainaly hmve the effect- of reawakening hopes among the rebellious Democracy of the North. The'New York Tribune, Radical W ell ! Mr. Johnson remains in the White Hlouse. The XIth was deliberately, and and we doubt not judliciouisly, selected as the article that would comwand most votes. This failing, all faiL The Philadelpihia Emquirer, Radical: It would be folly to say that the people have not beun sadly disappointed by -the vote on Saturday. Not go mnuch because the biad man -who has suceeded to the chair of Lincoltn is to remain there for ten months longer,is this regret most poi gnant. But the great grie! is the alarm ing fact that the dictates 'of conscience, honor and princi-ple can be deliberately spurned by men in positions like these Senators, 'and the professions of their lives deliberately falsified at the most~ critical moment of trial. The Philadelphia A ge, Democrata-The very merntbers of the Senate whom the public voice would always have distin guished as tmen of integrity and honor, drawn together by no party tie or comn mon interest, sustained suecssfully the cause of truth and justice. Not less ap propriately all the nien whose life record is stained with edPuption, debauce-cry and every variety of profligacy and vice are found banded together in the attempt to prostrate the forms of justice to ad Vance their own selfish, uicked ends. The National Intelligencer; Indepen dent :-Although thea vote on Saturday only fulfilled our anticipations and vindi cated the confidence which we had re peatedly expressed in the integrity of the Senate, still the formal confirmation of these hopes has necessarily been a grate ful source of pleasure and relief from op pressive anxiety. The whole country breathes freer to-clay. The Hartford (Conn.) Times, Dem. It is the announcement that in this great turning point of our destiny as a nation the fate of the country is decided in its favor. Henceforth our progress is to be, not in the path of centralization, milita ry despotism and sectional hate, bu5t in the nobler direction of restoration of the old fraternal feeling.-d the Union-of the supremacy of the2Constitution-of peace, and of business and national pros perity. The New Haven (Conn.) Register, Democratic.-The honor of the country remains in a measure untarnished. The Executive of th'e nation h3lds his place in spite of partizan hate and the mud purpose of the radJicals to displace him at all hazard. A failure _to '-con viet on the eleventh article is sa failure of the LOCAL ITEMS. We are pained to learn that Mr. Jas. Swygert, a workman on-. the Greenville Railroad, received a - fatal injury near Alston last week which resulted in his death. We invite attention to Mrs. Miriam Hanter's card, in to-day's paper. Mrs. 11. is an industrious, neat and punctual worker. And has the esteem and good will of an appreciative public. Resolved, That the thanks of the Evan gelical Lutheran General Synod are due to the citizens of Newberry for the gene rous hospitality which the members of that body have enjoyed at their bands during the sessions of this Convention, that they be tendered by the pastors of the different churches to their respective congregations on next Sabbath, and that a copy of this resolution be furnished the Newberry Herald for publication. L. A. DIKLE, Secretary. Mess-rs.

Their names and origin - it matters not, suBlee it, men of taste and travel, whose judgment may be relied on say they were "good mixtures," and by no means to be sneezed at.

Aboiut twenty-two in number, stout, r sy-cheeked, intelli gent looking 'men, women and dhildren, their arr ival was an occasion of great interest to the coMmunity, and when viewed as the forerunner of a large Eh continued influx, we cannot but feel grati fied at the prospect before us-an increase f whbite population, greater prosperity, enhanced value of property aid more abundant . products. Let them come, the more.the better-; five thousand of f these working, thrifty 'people can- tind abundant room in this district, a'ed would build up the waste places, restore .the thousands of acres of land now cast o.ut nto old field, simply because the owners ave not the force nor desire to make teni v'ield of the fruits of the earth. nvite them here, send for them; and if n no othier way give them the land which is now idle, it will be as bread :ast-on the waters, ret urning after many ays, in an increase g prosperity to the isviect. We'learn frcm Mr. Boinest that he had nany adverse influences to work against, and not being able to talk to these people, found no little difficulty in counteract ng them, and under the circumstances, vithout an interpreter from home we hink he succeeded well. 'He tells us hat at one time he had about fifty con ~enting to come, but before leaving, more han half of therad,were stclen off under alse.p'ersuasions. The party now here have all gone to work and from what we learn, give uni rersal satisfaction. Mr. Bomest has for onths been working a family of Ger nans, and gives his opinion that their abor is just what we need,,and of twice he value that of our old system. The eal manifested by our farmers in further ig a project of such vital importance, mnd of such interest to them, is flattering for our future. THE CRow.-For the benefit of natu alists, generally, and our young friend, . M., particularly, who is an amateur of reat promise, and keeps a pair of the irds in question,. besides a variety of ther rare "insects," we publish an essay n the crow, from the pen of Josh Bil ings. Our friend may not be acquaint. d with all t'e habits and -characteristics f the peculiar bird, and if so, we trust hat the following history may aid him n this branch of the science to which is at tention is now directed. Josh says: Next.,to the monkey, the crow has the ost develtiy to spare. They are born very imild, kan be tamed az easy as th-e goat kanm, but.a tame- crow iz aktualIy wors than a soe thumhb. If there is enny thing about the house that they kant get into, it iz becauze the thing ain't big enuf. I had rather Vatch a distrikt skool than one ti'-ci Crows live on what they kan steal, and they will steal.enny thing that air't~tied down. They are forid ov meat vittles, and are the first to hold an inquest over a depart ed horse, or a still sheep. They. arei fine bird tew hunt, bat a hard one to kill; they kan see you 2 miles frst, and will smell a gun right through the side ov a mountain. They are not songstirs, altbo they have a good voice to cultivate, but what they do sing they seem tew understand th, roughly ; long practiss has made them perlekt. The crow is a tough bird, and kan stand the heat like a blacksmith, and the cold like a stun wall. They bild their nest among a tree, and lay twice, and both aigs would hatch out if they was laid in a snow bank-there aint no such thing as stopping a young crow. Crows are very lengthy, i beleave they live always, i never knu one to die a natral death, and don't beleave they kno how. They are alwus thin in flesh, and are like an iijun rubber shew, pour inside and out. Thev are not considered fine eating, altho, i have read somewhere ov biled crow, but still i never heard the same man hankering for sum biled crow 2 times. This essa on the crow iz coppied from natur, and if it iz true, i nint to blame for it, natur made the crow, i didn't, if i had i would have made her more honest and not quite so tufr CREERFUL WoMr.-Oh, if "gloomy" women did but -know what confort there is in a cheerful spirit! How the heart leaps-to weet a 'sunshihy-,fae, a merry tongue, ati, even temper, and *a heart which, either naturalfy, or.wbat'is better, from cunscientious principle; -has learned to take all things ori the bright side, believing that the Giver of life be iug all-perfect live, ti best ofiering we can make Him is to enjoy to the full what fie scds -of good, and what He allows of evi ; like a. child who, when once it believes in iterfather, belipves in all iis doings with it, whcther it , under stands.them or not. SrcE.-The pressure on 'our columns for- few weeks forced on us the neces-i ty of owitting the dish of spice. Matters political, exegetical, -digressional, con gre.,sional, theoretical, practical,. categor ic:il, sepsatioral, deniocratical, rational ani irrational, rhapsodical, demagoguai ca1 and diaboilical have variously been in the war. This week we see a chance for a smnall space, -and will serve up a dish, but it it be not spicy, - the apology is given before haz.d that onr. hand is out of practice. We sing first, t.o any. tune that suits, about "Nobody:" If nobodly's noticed you, you must be small; It' nob .dy's slighted you, you mnast be tall; if nobio'ly 's bo%wed to you, you maost be low; If nao'ody's kissed you, you're ugly we know.. - If nobodv''anvied you, youi'Ee a poor'eif If niobody's ti ittered you, you've tlattered youmif;2t If nobody's cheated you, you ate a knate; 4(f nobody's h ated y on, you are a slare. If nobody's called you a fool to your face, Sonw'body's wished for jour back in its pice; It' nobody's cal'ed yon a tyrant or scold, Some-body thinks you of spiritless mould. Itrobody knows of yone falts bet a friend, Nobody will miss them at the wor1d's.end; If nobody clings to your purse like a fuwn, Nobody'll run like a hound when its gone. If nobod.v's eaten h.is bread from your store, Nobody'll call you a m iserly bore, If nobody's staudlered you-here ja out.pen, Sign yourself "Nobody" quick as you can. 'Josh Uillings' last "essa" on the. fash ions is pretty good. Josh is a close oh setrver: "Stroet dresses-are -worn be~re almost mnimously ; iti fact, it iz inIpossible tew see eny kind ov femiail in the streets without some- kidd nv i dress owi-I mean street dress. They are made in the shape ov a dinner~ bell, and fit just about az tight.,- Water-fafls are a peg higher than, they wat, and soon 'will -be worn on the top of the bed, like, .a roos ter's comb. H-oop skirts are close r'eefed, and tilters are on - their last legs. Kid gloves are the . rags in lavender ; ,the more the lavender the better ; and 'the hair eddys in the front like'~ a nest ov young whirlpools just hatched outind drops down behind -from the waterfalls in one liair a foot long about the size ov a rope, with a poker comuing out ov it." A reporter- for a pa'per wrotie' ver dict of a coroner's jury,' "didf from. hemnorrage," but passing .throd~gh' tbs printer's hands the information -was next day given that the deceased "died from her marriage :" This is on a par with the experienc of a reporter in a Detroit paper, who, in an article on the city poor, spoke of -the great naumber of persons reduced 'to pov erty by the "mysterious decrees of Providence." His astonishment may be imagined- when he saw the' passage prioted, "mysterious decrease of provi sons " Quite as good is th'e "Muddle" made by another unfortunate typo with. the marriage notice of a. Mr. Conkey, who sent the following for puibli'ation: "Married-On August 1st, A Conkey, Esq., A ttorney-at-Law, to Miss Euphe mia Wiggins." "Love is the union of two hearts that beat in softest melody, Time, with its ravages, imparts no bitter fusion to an ecstaey." Fancy his phelinks on opening the paper to find his notice rendered thus: "Married-on August 1st, A Donkey, Esq., Eternally at Law, to Miss Euphu nia Piggins.".
