The party, consisting of their employees and invited guests, and .num bering about three hundred persons, were taken aboard the staunch and beau tiful little steamer Emily, Capt. W hite, from the foot of Hasell street and pro ceeded around the city by the way of White Point and into the beautiful Ash ley, under the inspiring influences of. bracing sea.air, sweet music and pleasant chst. The party spent the greater part of the day at the Wando Comnpanyl grounds,' about .twelve miles from the city, but paid a visit to that halcyon re treat-Drafton Hall. The excursion. is said to have been de lightful.. ,The day was bright and clear, the.sceary enlivening, the party inform- I ally pleasant, and variously dispersed I themselves-some to the shrine of terpsi-j thore, some at an improvised skating rinmk, while others sought the grateful shade of the trees to enjoy the charming scenery, and a few engaged in shooting illigators. The excursion was a success; ; mud Messrs.

We have been s wept;over by a disastrous war of fourycar's duration, followed for seven years more by the lashed and maddened waves of mis-judgmient and mis-rule, which has shaken the country fiom ~eentre to cir. cumference, both socially and politically. The stormy hillows of nassion and hate engendered by the late war have commenced to snbsidein the-North, and her best men are now surveyin: the ;ituatioi and taking their latitmle and departure. President Graut, during the late war 3aved the Territerial integrity of the Repubtic., and for it he deserved w%eli of the North. This debt they have paid to the full by elevating him to the Chief Magisoracy of the Republic -the highe-t posit.on in the gift of the Amer ican people. We chevished the hope when he was elected that he would inaugurate his administration by calling to his counsel the purest and ablest men in the entire country men who, by long experience in public af fairs, undersioud the needs of the coiin:ry and the working of our governmental system, and would spaitre no effort to readjust, in all its parts,this once great and happy Republic, and restore that general good fecling which once pervaded the land. That he did not do so was his own fault for no one was ever before surrounded by cir cumstances so auspicious for good. That he ignored the best and ablest men in the entire country and snubbed the best men in his own party, and surrendered to the Radical faction, was his own act. That he is especially to blame for the disastrous and verilous condi tion of the country in both her domestic and foreign affairs I opine no one will gainsay. During the war the North manifested a sin gular sagacity in sei,ding to the rear her generals as soon as victory failed to perch upon their banners. Grant stands to-day as a sta:esman, where McDowell stood as a gen eral upon the disastrous field of Bull Run confused, defeated,routed. If we are to judge the future by the past, let him prepare to get to the rear, for such is his Cate. The war is ended and freedom is now permanently es tablished; slavery having been torn up, down in the very roots out of the Constitution, leaving not a fibre to tell where it once was. We are now moving t1orward and battling for the next station upon the great highway -the purification of the government and the pacification of the country. The great moral power of the North and West has spoken, and they have reached out their hands ia amity to us, and have invited us to unite with them in the great contest. They have put forth as their standard bearers in the fight Horace Greeley and Gratz Brown. It is not to be expected, that those to wht we have heretofore looked to forcounsel will move up promptly to the support of Mr. Greeley, with whom they have, for a lifetime, been in mortal combat. But will the rising manhood of the State daily by the wayside, and wait for 'r. Belmont to come up with his little truck cart bef.)e they decide what they will do? We hope not. Should we wait, and the Democratic party put into the tield a straight out ticket, not only will the furnace in the North again glow to a red heat and the elections in the South be carried by the military power, but all the chance< are that Grant will be re-elected, and men more radical than those now seated into power. will be returned to the nex: Fed eral Congress. Should the rising gene ration, however, everywhere mn ove up promptly and the Democratic party confirm the nomiaation of Greelcy and Browa, not only will they be triumphantly elected, but better menr everywhere than those now in of fice will be run upon their ticket and lifted into places of power and trust. There will be a vast change for tire better in every die partmnent, both State and Federal. of oar great compound system of Government. The! d ifferent sections -of the country will again begin to understand each other and a kindly feeling will spring up between them. Capi tal and labor will with a rushing tide pour down into our beautiful State, so tenderly loved in Provincia! days by Shaftesbury and Locke. Our beautiful Capital which now numbers about ten thousand people, will, with its magnificent water power, in a FEw years number fifty or one hur.dred thousand. All the hills for miles around will be dotted with cottages and covered with a teeming and a merry population, and on and on will she move increasing in numbers, prosperity and power until she rivals the great manufactn ring cities of the world,. I have the honor to he, Very respectfully, ELLISON S. KElTT. THE ALDIst for June is the most Amern :an of all our magazines. It contains three rall page original Illustrations of' American F'orest Scenery, by Moran, Nehlig, and [-Iows. Moran has seleced the primitive borest,and given us a glimpse of wildness and grandeur. His subject is "Kwasind, The :Strong Man," in the "Song of Hiawatha," mtd he has handled it magniticently, with all ;he strength and r.one of the extravagance >f Dora. Nehlig has selected the Colonial 'orest, so to speak, and has given us a riimpse of its sunny openings, roofed with 'oliage, draped with vines, carpeted with; lowers and moss, and peopled wIth happy birds. His subject is Campbell's "Gertrude f Wyoming," the spirit of which he has re tlized in his tigures of' Gertrude and Albert, vho. are rambling through the woods in 'anciful Indian garb. Bows has selected he forests of the Adirondacks, and has given is a glitmpse of the pines of the Racquette. l'hey shoot up before us, with their tall runks and crooked, ragged branches, strug ling with summer sunshine, brightened and lark-ened by turns as they stretch along the* rinding stream that brawls over its rocky bed.t t nobler trio of forest pictures than these~ rere never drawn, and they ought to make he fortune of The Aldine as an Art Journal. 'he rest of the illusrrations are of various egrees of' merit, the most noticeable being' avis' "Rainy Dary," after Longfellow's oem of that name, and a charucteristic] esign, by Stephens, for one of .E<op's fab ~s. Altogether the June Aldine is the best bat has yet been published. The publishers re James Sutton -& Co., 23 Liberty Street, iY., anod the price is $5.00, including oil hromo.

IMPROVEMENT.-Captain Speck, not gatis fied-and correctly so-with the pretty in. 1 ternal arrangement of his store, is having the front painted. We hope some day to see all the stores nieely fitted up and fixed. Ris WANTED.-The report is general throughout the State that farmers are suffer ing for rain. Here in Newberry we have 1 long suffered. Slight showers fell here and there the latter part of last week. We hope they may be soon revived with greater force.

Stoddard & Co., and J. S Westendorff, Holmes & Calder, Charleston. Music.-It is a good sign, we take it, that there are three bands of music in our town, for music never injures the heart or the mind, but refines, purifies and soothes. We hope the bands will remain intact and give us their melody. EYE-GLAssEs.-Capt. Speck has glasses to suit all eyes, old and young, black and blue, and green, if any such there be. (,lasses that will magnify or "lend enchantment to the view." Call and tickle .peclz by pur chasing a pair of his Spec-tacles. The Act of the Legislature protecting game and birds from wanton destruction, also provides for the preservation of fish In artificial and private pond, as well as the trout in the streams. Any interference what ever renders the trespasser liable to fine or imprisonment. Ponds used as water-power for manufacturing are not included.

A few lamps for the iight will complete the matter.[ What a pity it is that our streets are so tarrow, and that when the opportunity was Lfforded for one broad avenue it could not be vailed of. We think this is the prime rea on why the ladies do niot walk out oftener han they do-the streets are too narrow, Sunday last was as bright and pleasant a ay as the genial mouth of May affords. Rev.

The flowers were dol vely but the taste displayed incoDstructing en. now who she Is nor where she lives-jast >nd them on the table, dry so-we drank > her health in a cp of fragrant tea-the Ldi:s beveiage, "which cheers but not ine riates,"-hoping that as flowers are said to e the guardian angels of the ladies-by day, 3e may never be without her angels. Beautiful moonlight nighto are with us, od we think fathers, husbands, sons and rothers would confer a great pleasure upon heir daughters, sisters, wives, mothers and randmothers, by taking them out for a lessant stroll or ride under the glimpses of he moon. It is true we have no park, nor are we a battery with its moonlit waters nd music o'er the sea. But there are pleas ,t plaet(s to go to. A quiet walk even round the square would be a relief to nauy, who just as night comes on are com letely fagged from the fatigues of the day, nd have neither energy, nor zest for the est of the evening. A cheerful walk with merry group of boys and girls or care dis >elling children, would be a sweet restora iTc to many who drag through life and leep in fitful dreams of care and unrest. Nake up, ye gentlemen, and take your fair riends out of the ruts of life, and remove ill the cobwebs from their hearts. It seems to be a hard matter to supply the wants of Newberry. A few weeks ago she )nly wanted a water works, a gas company, fire engine, and an Agriculmral Society, to ,Dtitle her to the position of a first-class own; and now she is crying for "more )utchers or more beef, it matters not which )r bow, so that suffering humanity in those yurts are more abundantly provided for in 1e way of meats."-Carolinian. We wish our brothers of the Carolinian ,ould happen in town now; they would see hat juicy beet is coming in, with mut on that wonld do credit to any South-down. nd now that our butchers are supplying the itizens with juicy, porter-house steaks, tea ler cutlets and savory chops, we have no lonbt that as soon as the generous fluids >crmeate their systems there will be such a lisplay of eneegy as to push along the water vorks, fire-engine, &c. - We do want something else-an ice-house. Ve wish that our Columbia friends would in orm Mr. Seegers that he must look to it. We iave not heard from his machine this season. THE VALUE OF NzwsPAPEas.-The value f newspapers is not always sufficiently ap >reciated, and the loss to a large majority of >eople, who do not realize their importance, md consequently deny themselves the bene it, is very great. There are those, however, who know and testify that a single number >f a paper often contains that which is of nore value to them than the entire cost of a rear's subscription. As a proof of their sometime value, we give the following para traph, clipped from an exchange: "Many persons who wear reading-glasses Lre sorely annoyed at the difficulty of keep ng them in their proper position on the nose. [o all such it will be interesting to know that L rising young optician has devised a very ngenious expedient by which that end can >e accomplished. It consists in driving a ack into :he bridge of the nose and hanging he glasses upon it." What would we do without newspapers as t medium of enlightenment, and suppose for & moment that this important discovery hould not become generaily known. We ctow a gentleman in this very town who is ilways complaining of his glasses slipping ff. The relief to him will be of' immense >enefit. And how simple the idea-a tack in he nose. Nine hundred and ninety-nine men mut of a thousand would never have dreamed >f it. cRAPs--ALL FOEl THE LADIEs. Iowa couples are married in buiggies. lhey say it is the Dolly Varden style.

No matter for wry faces. the inevitable salts and senna, rhubarb, or calomel and jalap, must be administered. The "spring medicines," the youngsters were told, were to keep them hale and hearty during the summer. We all know notv that this was a falacy; that new vigor, not depletion, is what is required at the commencement of the sum mer solstice. As a preparation for the enervating effects of oppressive summer weather, a course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is highly expedient. This famous vegetable preparation has three promniuent properties: It renovates, purifies, and regulates all the functions of the body. It is composed exclusively of pure vegetable productions, viz.: the essential principle of Monongahela Ryet, and the most efficacious tonic and alterative roots, barks, and gums 1 known to medical botanists. Hence, it is an absolutely safe medicine, and no tine-< ture of the Pharmnacopmia can compate with it either in purity, or in the variety of its objects, and its comprehensive re suits. Happily for mankind, the theory that it wa., necessary to prostrate a patient in order to cure him, is forever exploded, and the true philosophical doctrine, that vigor is one great antagonist of disease, I haa taken its place. Hostetter's Bitters is an invigorant, and hence it is the proper, medicine for the feeble at this most trying season of the year. Be sure that you. obtain the genuine article, as there are innumerable vile im itations in the 'n,arket. Look to the orna mental stamp engraved Label, and the name blowu into the glass. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is sold in bottles only. May 1. 13--1m. Physicians Use Them in Their Practice. t It is almost universally the case that Phy sicians condemn what are generally known as "Patent Medicines." Although DiR. TUTT'S LIVER PILLS IS NOT A PATENT MEDI CINE, yet its composition (the result of years of study) is known only to himself, and so palDable are their valuable curative proper-( ties, that very many of the first Physisians in the South and West have adopted them C in their practice, and recommended them to their patients.

MEANs WHAT HE SATs.-Tbough "eon firmations strong as proofs of Holy Writ,"~ and as numerous as the sands on the sea shore, were produced to prove that Dr. Pierce, the proprietor of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, Is in earnest and means what he says, when be offers $500 reward for any case of Catarrb which he cannot cure, yet there woald be some skeptics and foges who would continue to shout, "Humbug!" "Humbug!!" "It lannot be, because D, Homespun says Ca tarrh cannot be cured." ~Now, this Dr. Romespun is the identical, good-natured old S leclaring that this earth is not round or ipherical, but flat gs a "slap-jack," and does 20t turn over, otherwise the wrater would all ye spilled out of Deacon Bascom's mill pond. But astronomical science has positively de nonstrated and proven that Dr. Homespun a wrong in supposing this earth to.- be dlat mnd stationary, and medical science is daily >roving the fact that he is no less mistaken and behind the times in regard to the cura- F lility of Catarrh. In short it has been pool-C ively proven that this world moves, and hat medical science is progressive--the opin on of Dr. Homespun to the contrary not,. rithstanding. That Dr. Sage's Catarrh Rem dy will cure Catarrh, thousands who have tsed it attest. 'hen buy it, and use it, in doubt do not stand,; ron will find it in drag stores all over the land. it.

Hence in their N toilet talk" among themselves and with 3eir attendants, the moerits of preparations. >r the hair are freely canvassed, and the B test result of this discuson seems to be cr se almost universal adoption of LyoNr's Ka.- ni RAIRON as an article better ad apted to pro- re tote the growth and beauty of the "Chief lory of Womsn" than say other at present efore the world.

A&- LIFE-; WHAT IS IT ?-IN be human orgauism, force invariably ac ampaiies change, and is, in fict, the re uit of charge. The functional action of ny organ or portion of the system is ossible only under the condition of change. 'h blood continually washes each organ rain or muscle, gland or nerve-with it& ifTe-iving flood, sweeping away the dead, 1orn.out particles and replacing them rith new particles. Death thus starts side iy side with life; and side by side, as tecessary conditions the one to the other hey press fo. -iard to the common goal cf >oth. The notion that the varying func ions of life are but the varying manifesta ions and entworkings of a mysterious en ty known as the vital principle, is now xploded. Those varying functions are -ow viewed as the simple effects of inti nate molecular charges in the organs, just s the motions of the steam engine are riewed as the effects of the expansion of lastic vapor in the boiler and cylinder. udeed, very probably, if a man had first net with steam-engines in nature, he rould have explained their movements by upposing the existence of a vital principle >r something similar. Now Dr. Fisch's litter's is a pi eparation compounded in ac ordance a itk the above lately discovered rinciples. It sti-nulates molecular changes. t also stimulates alimentation, and thus in ures Ln abundant supply of blood for the ormation of new tissues to take the room if those that molecular change has dis ilaced as useless.
