Exceptions bade during the past year, by special request and on promises strong and ap parently truthful, have proven the fallacy of credit. We cannot indulge the ex pgnsive habit longer.

All persons indebted to this office for a-lvertising, or Job work, either As signees or others, are called upon to set tle up bef\re return dyn. The garrison under command of Major Van Horne left our distrivt Monday.- It is possibly the last that will be quartered among us. Mr. Robt. A. McKnight, owing to ill health, retires from the management of the Unionville Tines, which will be con ducted by R. W. Shand, Esq. We wish friend McKnight a speedy recovery of his health, and Mr. Shand great success "upon" t'e tripod. Miss Emma Westteld, of Greenville, S. C, was granted, at the United States Court yesterday, a copyright for a new piece of music by her, entitled "Ilinda's L-mtnent," says the Charleston Courier, and we are gratified to know, that this accomplished and amiable young lady is making good use of her beautiful talent in music,al composition. Her brief visit to our home nest, and the pleasure reaized therefrom, are not forgotten. Bankruptcy-Another Chance. It is generally understood that the petitioner for bankruptcy, since the tirst January, "will be OBLIGED to pay lifty per cent. of his debts. The Au gusta Daily Press says such is not the case only under contingencies. A man may' file his petition at any time, and if .o objection is made by his creditors, he may receive a final discharge. If ob jection be made by the creditors, hoir ever, they can insist upon the enforce ment of the fifty per cent. clause, ere the discharge is granted. If tis be correct, there is still a chance. - Legialativa. The Alabama Legislature -adjourned sine die on the Sist ultimo. The next session commences in July next. Our grand tableau instead of exhibit ing any signs o1 a like gratifying char acter, took a new lease of legislative life on the 5th inst., after the Christmas re cess, and is now again in 'ull feather. Very little if anything accomplished as yet, while that is the way the money goes The following bills and petition's were introduced: To divide Beaufort county. State roads 'to be worked under a geheral systemn of contracts. A bill empowering attorney General to change the venue in State cases. Also to~ ineresse salaries of Justices Sureme Court and Gircuit Judges. A bill to declare the rights of credi tors, imd to provide for the winding up ofthe affairs of railroad companies in South Carolina. In the Senate the following bills re ceived a second reading, and were or dered to be engrossed : A bill to punish sheriff's and otber officers for vi- dating the homestead law ; a bill relative to sales of property- under detrees of courts of equity and circuit courts. Affirs in Wasbington. W AssIseTras, January 8.-Gen. Ros seu's death in New Orleans causes gen eal gloom here. He was highly respec ted and loved. The cotton bill authorizes the Secreta ry to purchase raw cotton grown after the passage of the bill, delivered at any railroad depot, or on a steamer making direct communication with New York, t 20 cents per pound for upland and 30 for ses Wsand. Purchases made throtagh revenue officers are exempt from the tax, but if sol to other than agents of the United States, the agents n ill be taxed three cents per pound. C' tton purchased by the Government shall be sold at a price nom less than five cents adlvance on the cost. Manufacttures within the United States are allowed to draw back 2* for cotton used by them; a full re port of all transactions to be presented to (Congress at the commencement of each regular session. In the Senate, a bill rcgulating the price and encouraging the product of cotton, was veferrd to the Finance Comn mittee. Morrill reported a bill amending the Act providing for a national currency, mentioning incidentally that the United States loses $6UO,' 00 by a national oank ia, Boiston. A bill restricting the jutis. diction of the Court of Claims, was re ferred to thle Judiciary Committee. The Senate passed sev-ernal personal disability bills and adjourned. In the House, no business of impor tance was transacted. Adjourned to Monday. We regret to learn that Goy. Pickens is lying seriously ill, at his home in Edgefeld district. Accounts of rioting, mutiny, &c., among the negroes in Princess Ann Co., Viginia, reach us through the press. Mr. John Glover of Beech Island, Edge field, says the Advertiser, was found dead on Thursday last. It is supposed he died in a fit. From the far West come accounts of battle between white and negro soldiers, and tales of fir-e, murder and ravishing. The nation's wards seem to have carte blanche to do as they please. There is some talk about a Govern mert Gotton Bill, in which the Govern ment is to monopolize the purchase of all the staple, at a stipulated price. Balderdash ! - Congress should be Sints on Advertising. "If you do:nt wish to be a total failure, advertise," says the letter heading of the Onarga (Il.) Journal. And the surest and most expeditious way of discovering the energetic and business men of any place, is.by an ex amination of the ndvertising columns of the newspaper publi=hed in their neigh borhood. An evidence of the effect of advertising is shown by the following letter addressed by an advertiser to Geo. P. Rowell & Co., New York : Gents-For the Lotd's sake stop that advertisetment. We have had a hundred letters the past month, and could have bought 20 presses in one day, at from $t to $400. Yours, &c.,- . sThe editor of the New Lisbon (Ohio) Patriot, under date of Nov. 28, says: "Sometime last Summer you sent the Patriot an advertisement of Music Vale Seminary, occupying about an inch, for which I suppose you charged -the Pro prietor a dollar. A young lady of this place, who intended to go to Pittsburg to complete her musical education, cut out the advertisement and wrote to Mr. Whittlesey concerning the institution, prices, &e. 1 The correspondence result ed in her going on in October. Another young lady from bete, with one from Salem, followed in November, and still another has gone from Salem. This makes four scholars for an advertise ment of $1, which certainly is cheap enough." The reverse is shown by the following practical illustration : A clerk in a ner cantile concern in thi, village said to us the other day, that he has "plagney easy times now-a-days-very little work to do-our firm don't advertis.." No wonder! The story of the boy who was seut out with a bag of green corn to sell, is a good hit at those who attempt bush:ess without advertising. The boy was gone all day and returned % ith the bag un opened, which he dumped on the floor, saying, "There is your corn, go and sell it yourself-I can't," "Sold any ?" "No," said the boy ; "I've been all over New London with it, and nobody said any thing about green corn. Two or three fellows asked me what I'd got in my bag, and I told them it was none of their business." Lxchanges. - Vick's Illustrated Catalogue and Fior al Guide, for 1869, sent us by Mr. James Vick, of Rochester, N. Y., is one of the handsomest catalogues we have seen in some time. A beautiful and highly col ored frontispiece, representing, a boquet of rare flowers, adds to its beauty. A'side from the beautiful appearance of this catalogue, it is a guide for the Flower Garden, and conta:ins accurate descrip tions of leading floral tr a.sures of the world, with plain :reetions for soa ing seed, transplalnting and after culture, besidt s a list of all kinds of seed, for flower and vegetable garde~ns. Every lady should have onie of these catalogues, and we suggest that one he sent for by every lady reader of the IIerald. Se'nd 10 ets.. to Mr. James Vick, Rochester, N.

WATr ELSE DID BE ExrEcT.-'Wash igton letter writers say that Menard, the colored Congressman elect from New 0Oleans, has gone home, disgusted n ith his contest for a seat, and so impecynous ly reduced that he had to obtain Freed men's Bureau tranasporta tion. ScnooLBot'SE Acc,DENT.-Rochester, N. Y. January 8-Eight of the fifty woun ded by the falling of the schoolhouse are dead. Trhe accident is attributed by the coroner's jury to a r.eglect in putting full stone caps on the brick pieces. SALE OF BEEcHER's PEWS.-The New Yok Tribune of the 6th says that at the sale of Pews in Beecher's Church, the day previous, ninety-seven thousandc dollars were realized. There is not much religion there for the poor. To Charleston and Back Again. 'Twenty miles', said the conductor, to an Irishman, who once asked the distance of his journey. "Arra, then," said Pat, to his companion. "and its only ten miles for each of us, to be sure." And so it is, genial com panionship always shortens distance in tra vel, doubles picasure and divides sorrow. The end of the journey arrives ere we know it, and one finds himself abruptly breaking a 'feast of reason,' or perchance, 'a flow of soul,' constrained to snap the thread of a happy discourse, to turn if from the piquant sallies, witticisms and bagatelle of the pleas ant tourist and compagnon du voyage. And such was tbe condition of things last Wednesday evening, as a party of gallant Newberrians and Unionites met aboard the nizht train of the S. C. R. R. bound for the Metropolis. Among them were two or three celebrated bulls and a "bird," escaped from his covert. The bulls were going down among the bears. There was a golden at traction below for some of them, and right pleasat!tly sped the hours away. The 'bird' sang sweetly, regaled the company, was at tentive and polite to way (lady) traveleis, entertained a contract to supply government with empty oys:er cans, to be used in the manufacture of parrot shells,- &c., and then, strange to say, indulged in a supper of 'doings and fried fixings,' and made up in part of suspicious sausage, (thought to have had as an ingredient, the sulphate of bark or canine,) oyster paties, sardines, chicken and pound cake, together with various et ceteras, and the whole washed down by a bowl of-hot coffee, in which the dregs of creation must have been mingled. The po sition be afterwards occupied was a very critical one-abdominally. He fell a%leep, tho' but snored so loudly that he woke him self up; falling into another snooze and snore, one of the party almost succeeded in playing yankee doodle upon his nose. Arriving in Charleston, these irrepressible Newberry bulls went among the bears and fought it out to the tane of $15,000 or $20, 000, purchasing, in lots, over a thousand bales, and disposing of the same together with previous transactions, at a premium of from ten to eighteen dollars per bale. One lot pnrchased was a rise of four hundred bales. The Charleston cotton market on Saturday afternoon was the most excited that we had seen in a long time. Many of the sales wereeffected without samples. The market closed that night in a jubilee-bo:h buyers and sellers satisfied-the former vith the certain prospect of a further rise, and the. latter with their successes. Much of the cotton bought by Newberry,was from the jaggers," and to them re-sold. That's the way to buy-when the market's a little dull, at all events ere the staple has reached its maximum, for afterwards some, body'll be hurt. Buy when you may make a profit, buy largely, create an excitement, and then "push things.' Our round trip and stay in the Queen City, 'though but of a day or two was very pleasu rable, and had we time and space, mightI present many interesting items to our read ers. But more anon. auffBeo It that every moment was a key moment, fraught with interest,and redeeme-d with data upon which to build: Intelligence was conveyed to us Saturday .afternoon, that those desiring to reach hotne Sunday morning; should repair Ito Columbia by the nigh t train, as -a kind and thoughtful director and 'distinrguished~ legal citizen, reinemberinig that Newberry was ex:eursive ly abroad .hadg~ot thle conteous, ubiquitous aind energetic superintendent of the G. & C.

Do MEN WEAR CoaSETs?-Thle clues tion, "D)o Men Wear Co:set's?" is an swered by a New York corsetrmaker, who says they do, andI "he knows it, because he takes. them." Lie adds: The Sinest gentlemen in town employ this means of giving symmetry to their figures. They are not used so miuchi by young men as by those somewhat ad vanced in life. Wealthy gentlemen of' miiddle age like to be thought handsome, and to have preserved the symmetry and grace of youth. I should say that there are at least three thousand gentle mren in New York who wear corsets habitually, and lace them pretty tightly too, ROMAMIcE.-A little hit of romance hsS just transpired to relieve tlie monirtony of our metropolitan life. Old Sama Chog gins, whom the edito~r of this paper has publicly thras.hed, returned from mud Springs with a young wife. ile is said to be fond of her, and the way he cone to get her was this:- Some time ago we courted her, but finding she was on the make, threw her off, after shooting her brother and two cousins. She vowed re venge, and pron>ised to marry any man who would horse.whip us. This Sama agreed to undertake, and she married him on that promise. We shall call on Sam to-morrow with our new shot gun, and present our congratulations in our usual form. -Hungtown Gibbet. . -. . Index to New Advertisements. Notice to debtors-M. D. Suber.

WANDO FERTLlZER.-This new and justly celebrated manure, which proved itself a thorough success last season, is offered for sale by Win. G. Dukes & Co., Agents, No, 1, South Atlantic Wharf, Charleston, S. C. The "Wando" has for its base, the Ashley phosphates, and is peculiarly adapted to the culture of Ininigration in the District of Newberry. Immigration in the District of New =er:y has reached a gratifying height. the number of immigrants for the month f November was 33, for December 48, nd if we include the 4G who cane into be district previous to the 1st of Novem >e, the result will show the gratifying nmnmber of 127 imnigrants; in every re pect a very good beginning for the first year. , If the visible increase of immigration n the-one hand-shows, that the society in this place is succeeding in removing farther and farther the prejudice, which has hitherto been a-hindrance in the way >f immigration to tho Southern States, the numerous app rcati-ns of farmers for forei,n laborers on the other hand prove, that the former prospeiity can be re stored onjy by an increasing supply of iminigrarts and the working power thereby introduced. The immigrants who have come here have rapidly accommodated themselves to the new circumstances, and their per frmances with very few exceptions, have fully met the demands upon them, so that both parties, employers and labor ers, have good reason to be content. It is not to be denied that the German im nigrant especially, when he chooses the South for the founding of a new home, has to give up more of the habits and customs of his old home, than if he were to go to the Northern or Western States; for, aside from the fact, that he finds nore of his countryrmen in the latter, the usu-d food and manner of life are more in accordance with those of his native coun try, than they are in the South. If the Southern farmer wishes to obtain the proper advantage from the immigrant, it is absolutely necessary, that he make a few concessions, and that he do not consider him, like the negro, merely a rough working power. There must he yieldings on both sides. The immigrant must especially seek to adapt himself to the new manner of life as rapidly, as pos sible, and the native must endeavor to make this task as easily as possible to him. Only in this way can the just ad vantages of immigration be obtained in the shortest possible time. The immigrants, who have been for some length of time in the South, and then prefer to go to the North or Vest, (uch instances have not occurred in our District, but they have in oJthers,) give, a their reasons for so) doing, rarely hard work or unfriendly treatmentt, but most 'y, that they could not beeorie accuIs tomed to t.he food given to tus and that they were assigned half ruire: ne gro-huts as dwvellin'gs. W ben Cue.,e two causes of the dliscolbtent of immi.yganlts exist, they can in my op'inioni easily be removed. The cost of~Iurnid:i"g immi grants with good dwellings would ntot he great, as hcuses are usually bh. at the South ; and as to food, it is fresh meat and cotfee, to ahiehn they have been ac customed from youth; do ntot deprive them of these all at once, but let them accustom themselves gradually to the prevalent food and mannuer of life, and you will be richly rewarded for the slight extra expense at first, by the content, greater activity and working power of your laborers. The undersigned w~ill always endeavor to impress upon the immigrants the ab solute necessity and great benefit to them selves of leaving off many of their earlier habits an~d custotns, and of accommio dating themselves as rapidly as possible to the manner of lire here prevalent; and if farmers, will addl their- endeavors, in the manner indicated, I am fully con vinced, that this section will soon richly reap the full advantages from immigra tion, which, by proiper management can be gained therefrom. F. W. BRUGGEMANN, Agent of the Newberry Immigration Speiety. NEWBERRY, January 5th, 1869. At a meeting of the Newberry Bar, held this anhy, Col. Fair was called to the Chair, and Silas Johnstone appointed Secretary. A. C.

Resolved 2, That the varied knowl edge, unswerving integrity, and many virtues of the deceased, adorned the profession to which he belonged ; that a conscientious discharge of dnty distin guished his conduct in all the works of life, and endeared him to the community in which he lived, who with us will ever cherish his memory as an example of the upright and honest man and christian gentleman. Resolved 3, That we condole with his bereaved famnily in their irreparable loss, and that as a mark of our diepest sympa thy, the Secretary of this meeting be re quested to furnish them with a copy of these resolutions.

The estahli.:hment on the r i v e r Uruguay, South America, for the manu facture of Lichig's Extract of meat, itis state:1, has the largest kitchen in the n orl. The b:ii'ing covers an area of 20,000 suare feet, or nearly half an acre. In one hall there are four meat cutters, which can dispose of 200 bullocks per hour. There are twelve digesters; in which the meat is boiled by steam. They can hold altogether 144.000 pounds of beef. About eighty oxen per hour are actually slnughtered for this immense manufactory of meat extract. Many years ago the writer of this notice and an invalid physician, while-visiting the Island of St. Croix for their health, expe, rienced and witnessed many surprising and beneficial effects of the Rum there produced upon many of the invalids who were, like ourselves, seeking health, and upon inquiry and Investigation, obtained- a full history of its medicinal virtues. He was delighted and svrprised, and determined to make it the basis of a Tonic and Restorative Medi cine. The result of his labors was a glori. ous success for himself and suffering hu manity. The celebrated Plantation Bitters was thus made known to the world.
