FOR PRESIDENT, HORACE GREELEY, OF NEW YORK. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT, GOV. B. GRATZ BROWN, OF MISSOURI. Good words from Grats Brown: "We want a President without a party; a governmebt without corruption; a con gress without price; and a judiciary without politics." The DHalmgto Agialtural and Xehani eat SUM Mr. Edward McIntosh, President, and W. E. James, Esq., Secretary and Treas urer, have issued their annual Premium List for the second Annual Fair, to be held at Darlington, C. H., commencing Oct. $0, and closing 1st Nor., 1872. The Company offiers over six hundred dollars in the way of Premiums. The Darling ton people have organized their Society as a joint stock Company, the citizens generally throughout the County are stockholders, which places the Company on a sure footing. In Abbeville and Barnwell are two flourishing Societies, in which the citizens of their respective Counties interest themselves; thus an nually they are drawn together with samples of the various field crops and animals for competition; the artisan the result of his genius; the garden, the household, needle and fancy work, paint :ng, &c., of our fair country-women, at test also that they too are always present to add interest to eccasions so important to the welfare of our country. We feel sad indeed when in Newberry no sucb organization exists-a section once noted for its flourishing Agricultural Society, and also "r the intelligence of her citi zens. Should she be behind her sister Coonties in an enterprise so important to the prosperity of our people? . c dward NWtWmb . We tranfer to our columns from the Charleston Courier the following notice of the death of this estimable gentleman. Captain McIntosh was the brother of our respected fellow citizen, Dr. James McIntosh. Our community sympathizes with him in his berexvement: The Eastern section of our State has sustained a loss, by the death of this most estimable gentleman, which will be felt fr years tocome, by all those who know and appreciated him. lHe has left behind him foot prints on the sands of time, which cannot easily he obliterated, and which the rising generation may follow with credit to themselves. Capt. Mcintosh prepared himself for the duties of life by a thorough course of study in the South Carolina College, where he graduated with distinction in 1859, taking the first appointment in his class He at once turned his atten tion to agriculture, but was allowed only one year's devotion to his profession ere the State summoned him to aid her in the great war for Constitutional Co, ernent. Nobly did he respon.d, and nobly did he serve her throughout the struggle. It was his privilege to be of the Army of Northern Virginia, and he proved himself worthy of that distinc tion. Since the war he has given his chief attentii,n and ntiring energy to planting, and to the development of the material interests of the State. lie wa one of the ounders of the Pomological and Farmer's Club, of Society Bill, a leading spirit in the Darlington Agri cultural Club, and an active member of the Executive Committee of the South Carolina Agricultural and Mechanical Society. More recently be organifed the Agricultural and Mechanical S->ciety of Darlington as a Joint Stock Company, and was its President at the time of his death. Notwithstanding his thorough iden tification with the farming interests, he did not fail to dischanrge his duty to the Church or the State-in fact duty was his guiding star. He fully realized the fact that the "the duties of life are rwore than life," and exemplified it through out his brief career. "ewas a man, take ihim for all in all, We shall not look upon his life again." Th Boo Jubilee. The great International Peace Jubilee, now being held in Boston, is one of the greatest performances in the musical line that har ever taken place in this country, and is proving a great success. Some of the most celebrated mnusicians andi aingers in the wo,rld are connected wtith it. Amoeng them is Strauss, the celebrated German Composer, Ma-lam Leutner, Madaum Goddard, Madam Ru de,dorff, Franz Abt, and many others of distinguished reputation. The Jubiieo is held in a monster building called the Coliseum, covering tivri acres, and capable of holding one hundred thousand people. The interior is beautifully decorated with flags, streamers, and various emblems. Two acres is set apart exclusively foir the Orchestra and Choir. There are fifteen hundred instruments in the Orchestra, and over fifteen thousand singers in the choir. Several foreign hands are there. The Grenadier Band of England, uno bering seventy-five instruments, under the leadership of the celebrated God frey, is said to be one of the Sonest bands in the world. Also bands from France, Austria and Germany ; the latter went into the battle of Gravelotte as an or ganization. The drum of the .English Grenadier Band is inscribed with the names of the battles ini which the reg iment has takea part, aely, Waterlon, Conosa Laau t$rn, Penine lar, Inker man, Schitopo, and the LL-tti is, "Dieu et mon Dr-m." The Jubilce is conducted by Mr. Gil muore, of Bustin. One very curious add novel featuse of it i- a cannon chorus, =omposed of several large cannon, which, with the fiftein hundred instruments, and the fifteen thousand choir, must make lively musical times for old Bos ton, and we would think extremely dam kging to weak nerves. Last Wednesday night, a Grand Inter national Ball was given in the Coliseum; music by the combined binds of Eng. land, France, Austria, Germany, and the United State, all under the direction of the great waltz composer, Strauss. The Jubilee commenced June 17th, and is to be continued until after the 4th inst. Ca. Amen and the Orange. This gentleman spoke freely and flu. ently Monday morning last, in Mayes & Martin's Hall, to a large audience of gen tlemen. Mr. Aiken began by telling the gentlemen of the agricultural cowiuni ty t!.t they were not as well informed as they might or should be, in their pur suit. That they should read more earn estly, investigate, experiment and make a practical digest of their expeiences. That the agricultural art, or the science of agriculture, is both noble and enno bling, when treated with its entitled re spect. That the tiller of the soil should be conversant with all the principles, forces and collateral agencies which build up the science in all its metes and bounds. That those who are willful laggards must reap the dead fruits of their thriftless ness. To this end he forcibly urged the claims of agricultural papers, and paid a deserved tribute to the Rural Carolinian. Mr. Aiken's remarks about sheep rais ing were as good as gold, and should be heeded right now. The advantages of the swivel plow were poorayed and doubtless highly appreciated. The fool ish prejudices against book farming or progressive intelligence, rather, were ably combatted. One of the best ideas advanced by Mr. Aiken, and one frequently urged, was that the farm or plantation should be self-sustaining, which would make the cotton supply a surplus of wealth. Should thi* practical principle obtain among our people we are persuaded there would be little use for ri)g!: -;r granges either in the commercial or agricultural world, other than those which foster a community of honorable interests, in all the professions. Cotton is the most potent agent in the world's highway of traffic, and the producer could, with concert of action, command the markets of the world. With reference to the Grange, which is of Welsh origin representing a farm, Mr. Aiken states that nine males and four females constitute a Grange; that tho State Grange is composed of not less than nine local Granges, and its officers taken from the masters of the local Granges, and so on with the National Grange, which has its head at Washing ton. In a deserved tribute to women, Mr. Aiken told very clearly why women should be members. From Mr. Aiken's remarks we deduce that the grange is simply for the moral, social, pecuniary and agricultural in provement of the people, then why is ii a secret society ? Of course, as be cierr ly stated, there is more or less secrecy in all the vocations and relations of life. Between families even of the most cor dial social intimacy, there is no divul gpnce of the sacred relations of the inner sanctuary, bat these things are not re ferred to. All societies, sacred and pro. fane, have more or less priYacy of course. The church holds its private meetings in which the outside world is not directly interested, and yet the church makes no mention of its secresy. No man nor cor poration should carry his heart upon his sleeve for daws to peck at, &c. Boards of Trade and Ghamnbers of Commserce, &c,are not rcally secret societies, and yet outsiders have no right to intrude. We shall refer to this matter again. A BEAUMI, SIMU..-Ina the course of his remnarks made at Frascati, n.ear Mo bile, on Tuesday evening, before the guests of the "Ladies' Monumental Me mnorial Association," Father Ryan said, pointing to a bank of heavy clouds just rising in thse west and obscuring then setting sun, and amnong which a vivid lighatming was incsantly playing: "As yon sun goes down behind a dark cloud, so went down the hopes of those en.gaged in the unequal struggle fors Scuthern liberty; as you now see the lightn.ings flashing and tlaz.ing athwart the face of that cloud, so leaped the bolts of hate and persecution. But behind that clou' the stars are still shining, just as the star of ;ope is still lighting up then hearts of our people; and as the sun will rise again on the morrow, so shall even tually rise up inl all its splendor the now down-trodden and partially obscured cause of right and justice." A TIMErs PREzcAuvo.-The Common Council of Chicago have passed a perenmp tory resolution heading off the prospec tive exploder of guns, toucher-off of squibs, and general flinger of fire-crack ers on the 4th of July. The action of the Chicago Council might well be adopted by the City Council of Columbia, as far as our principal thoroughfare Is concern ed, at least. The reckless manner in which pistols and crackers itt.fired on the 4th of July renders it dangerous to promenade Maina street. We agree with the Phcenix. The pre. caution is timely, and should be adopted in every community. Tar Fas -rO INFoaens.-Inforn'5r2 fees are to be abolished after the 1st of August next, so far as internal revenue is concerned. The commissioner will have a fund for disbarsement among such officers as may deserve special re ward. This action will have the effect of reducing the vigilanacecof the detectives to a miiiuma.stantdard. 4A a concert rceently, at the conclusion of the song, "Thedes a good time comlag, consr fet oti,pa eaclaimerd:' Editorial corescnaence-7 ei'c St'.os, Gm!~:!mus Co., S.

The trin was uleas ant, ee red so by good company, mod erate tempterature in weather and de lightful showers of rain, several of which we passed through, and with the hope uppermost in mair.d that a refreshing season would visit the thirsty land in and around our own Newberry. Met THE REV. S. LANDEU, the amiable, accomplished and efficient proprietor and President of Williamston Female College, at the depot of William ston. lie was just parting from acharming young miss,a pupil on her way home after exatniration-the sight was pleasant,the act graceful, the young lady prtty, and the President looked hnppy and s:)tis1ied. Willianston Female College has a de servedly fine reputation, and its Presi dent is one of the best preceptors in the country. The climate there is delight ful, the water mineral, and the pact a! together a picture of beauty, indicative of health. Had A CONSIDERA!l; HIGHT some where in the neighborhood of Ilow.a Path; something snapped under neath our couch; it had a peculiarly ugly sound. Dr. 0. B. M., sitting close by, said the sound was similar to that which preceded the great smash near Columbia, last Full a ytar ago. It made some one beside him very nervous. As our coach did not telescope that in front, jump off, tor over or smash into infinit essimal fragments imnmediately,our hearts dropped back from our mouths, and we felt easy. Found out afterwards from Conductor Brazealle that a rail had snap ped. We found out also, that night in Greenville, that Conductor B. is a very pleasant and agreeable companion to while away the hours between supper and bed-time with. THE C11OPS generally along the road are looking re markably fine, both corn and cotton, and though rains had been partial, the pros pect for a bountiful harvest is good. The oat crop has been poor. In due. time-six o'clock-arrived at the city, not by the sea, but under the brow of the mountain known as Paris-a consid erable hill. Everybody who has ever been to Greenville has had something to say or write about its cbarming features, therefore we will only say that it has a SnLE.EID HOTE-the Mansion House well kept in every respect, by its gentle manly and effcient host, J.

We were pleasantly and agreeably sur pr-ised at finding a house so admirably appointed in every essential, for it is grateful to the feelings of the tired trav eller *.o fall into a good place as this house certainly is.

This Greenville Band-colored-have a vast deal of wind, played long and loud, and as much out of tune as it was possible, and kept up the discord till midnight. The occasion Iwas a colored hot supper, and af ter the music by the band, and the hot things taken internally, had worked the party up to the pitch they commonly delight in, the uproar and noise and shouting, which was continued for at least two hours more, was perfectly trying to ores nerves. Sleep was not to be had unitil the motley, noisy rabble dispersed. A few hours then of refreshing rest, a good brenkfast, and we were ready for a ride in the pleasant morning rO CHIcK sPXINGS, Where we are now happily andl comfort ably located with the kindest and best family in the land. This is a delightful climate, cool and invigorating, and in connection with, the mtinevral waters of the Sulphur and hon Springs, will cure the invalid if he is not incurable. It is to be deploredl that there is no hotel here for a large accommodation, for we are' satisfied many would flock to this place' as in days of yore, arnd make the hills and vales once more put on an animated look.

C., June 24, '7. To the Editor of the Daily Union: Deputy United States Marshal James Maloney brought here this moruing and confined in jail one Tol. Perry, arrested, charged with having violated the enforce ment act. Tol. Berry, Daniel 3. Ward and John Barre, (the latter two merch ants of this place,) were at the house of Mr. Thomas Blease, in Edgefield county, about twenty miles from this town, lying rmt as officer Maloney has been wanting to see them for some time; they all being accused of having been very active members of the Ku Klux Klan of this county. Marshal Maloney received in formation Sunday afternoon that these three men with others were going to be at or near the store of Thomas Blease that night. Summoning two colored men to go with him as guides and as sistants, Maloney started that afternoon and reached Blease's at about dark. On riding up to the gate they discovered the men, Ward, Perry and Barre,sitting with Mr. Blease, out on the front piazza. The two parties espied each other about the same time, and there was a simultaneous rush-Ward, Harre and Perry out the back-door, Maloney and his %men after them. Ward was ahead and after getting into the back-yard turned and fired at Maloney; some one of Maloney's party returned the fire, and John Barre fell, wounded in the thigh. Meantime Maloney gto hold of Perry and at once secured his weapons and turned him over to his assistants. Having secured the two they had captured, they made a further search for Ward, tut the darkness of the night and denseness of the woods rendered it impossible to find him. They brought Perry along mith them to jail, and left Barre at Mr. Blease's house For a few days until the condition of hi: wound wiil adrit of his being moved to town, Mr. Blease standing security for his sai keeping until that time. W. DEPUTY MARSHALL MALONFT informed us that at noon of the day of the occurrence Sundamy) he was told that Mcssrs. Ward and Perry would be at Mr. Blease's that night, and that he took three men with him to make the arrest. Twenty miles from town they stopped and secured their horses, and went to Mr. B.'s store, but found no one. Then went to the dwelling-after supper; the night was clear; saw persons seated on the piazza; sent men around to the rear with in structions to shoot any escaping after being halted. That Mr. Ward was the first who ran, firing his pistol at the party as soon as be left the door, whereupon some of his men returned the fire, with the result of shooting Mr. Birre, who was also making his escape. Mr. Maloney says that the instruction to dire upon any one escaping after being hal ted, was given in a load voice, so that those in the house might hear and be deterred from escaping. Also, that he had given private and positive counsel to the men not to fire upon any one unless fired upon; and that the wounding of Mr. B. was purely ac cidental; that he was not looked for, nor was he expected at the house. Riot, Assalt and Attempt to Eill-Sick Chamber of a Dying Wom.a Disregarded, &c.-Near Moese's N Roads, Edgefield Couty, 8. C Massus. EDmrons: On Sanday, 23d June, 1872, (I am thus particular in giving day, date and year, bane I expect to watch the end of this matter.) If the Presiden t of the United States, Senators, Congressmen, Gov ernors of States, Legislators, Marshals, and all others in offBee, permit these things to pass without rebuke, they deserve to have their names written In infamy en the same roll with the assassins that perpetrated the deed. One James Maloney, who is reputed to be Assistant U. S. Marshal, accompanied by Peter Simmons, (A BLACK "NIGGER"'), Oscar Cannon, copper colored, (a pen itentia my b!rd,) and Willis Johnson, ("yallow nig ger,") went to my store at the Cross Roads and ordered a lad, Master Wells, who slept in the store with my son, a fourteen year old boy, into the store, stating that he should shut himself in, and if he came out that the guard that he i Maloney) was going to place around the house would shoot him. Mr. Smith, who was paying a visit to Wells, was then rudely assaulted, and ordered to march to my dwelling house (about a half mile from the store, each of the cowardly fellows sin gle filing behind him as close as they could walk, (lock step.) Smith's life was threat ened, and he assured that if he made any noise whatev.er that he would be shot. Abort half way between the store and dwelling (my: ton going from supper to the store, where he an Master Wells slep:) -was noenced upr*: by two "Nig ntigrers," who held his arms behind him whils: Ma'loney stood in front of him with a pistol presented to his br-east, swearing that he intended to shoot him throggh, after he kept the bey in th is positiorn until the cowardly, tormenting evii spirit was sati-fied, they tarned hin' loose, telling him to keep in the patht to the store; that if he turned to the right or ieft lhe would be shot biy men stationed in: the' wooda for tLe purposc. The file bing r-ar ranged as before, with Smith being forced to lead, the night being darle, and the foliage of tihe oaks lbeing dense, they camne in to my yard near the piazza, where Mr. John J. Barre, Mr. D. 3i. Ward, Mr. T. T. Perry and myself were sitting, (my wife was in her room at the point of death, having been quite ill for some time,) and they shouted to' our surprise, shoot every damned ralsa that comes out of the house. Shoot, shoot, I did not know whast it meant. Robbers, Lowry's band, everything flitted across n:y brai-u. The shouting. shooting. all, all, what does this mean? I advaned to m'eet them at the steps, Perry was with me, Barre and Ward jumped into the yard; Barre received a se i-ere wound; several attempts were made to shoot Ward but failed. The alarm to my wife was so sudden, and when Barre said, 'I amt shot," she thought it was the voice of our eldest son, and became so frightened that her recovery is now hopeless. As soon as I could, I a.scertai2led what was the matter. Maloney said that he had a warrant for Ward whom he had failed to arrest. What Ward was charged with he did not make known. Said he hiad a warrant for Perry, Perry said, "If you have I am ready to go with you." Bat he, Maloney, apologized to Esag; "hse was very sorry that he got shot, but I hay. a W0;' for yo-., although it i of little importance, somsage jy a charge against you; you Can stay haeo with 'A.

Ca'lDwFtL's LECTURE.-The third lecture of the course,by J. F, J. Caldwell,Esq, was read last Thursday night. It was a elaborote argument, and began with a run ninig summary o1 v:oman's capabIlities either of living an epic or pursuing a path of infa ey. Thle tlienge, as our readers are aware, I was "T he Legal Satus of Womag izn Soutl, L Carolina," and the disasslon of the subjeot which occasionally r.parkled wi:h humor, gave evidence of ripe scholarship.

As the lecTrerialude O the debased con ition ot woman under the Roman law, we i rould be pleased if in his next lecture he rould deem it not irrelevant to expatiate pan her exalted position under the Jewish Lw: also, that as the prefatory reflections in ar opinion, render the subject at once ex- < austless, and will allow its discussion from I oy stand-point, he will embrace the oppor 2nity of pointing to the pure ideals which aye elevated his c' arming countrywomen- a leals which could have been only created y the elevation which woman has attained 2 this land under a system of Christian civil r.atiun. The lecture was received with applause, nd was largely appreciated. SiGms OF iaPovBEET.-Newberry has I ow a spacious hall with comfortable seats or three to five hundred persons. Lectures Lave recently been delivered therein by three f our citizens for the benefit of the Female LCademy, and more are to follow. Those I Iready delivered have afforded a great deal 'f pleasure and instruction to all who have ,ttended. It is to be regretted that so few have been wesent. Many of our prominent citizens rho certainly must feel a deep interest in be education of the young, tke general ele 'ation and Improvement of the moralsof the I ommunity, have not attended. They should I Lot neglect longer so favorable an opportu- t sity to Identify themselves with a movement I rhich is so well calculated to produce last og and beneficial results. The lectures already delivered have been f no ordinary character, and it should be a ource of pride to every citizen of Newberry hat they have amorg them gentlemen so tell qualified by education and culture, to ntme.-et and instruct them. The next lecture of the course it is under tood will be delivered by Dr. Mayor, whose rell known talcnts and accomplishments hould secure a large audience.

A well-carved cross should point to eaven; massive paneled doors should im ess the visitor with the solemnityof the place ato which he is entering; stained glass hould throw a mystic light athwart the isles; pulpit, altar, ceiling and galleries bould be ornamented with figurative mould ags, and the columns that support the gal ries, and the balusters that rail them in, hould be of classic patterns.

Sashes, Ilinds, &c., No. 20 Hayne street Charleston, C. May 29, 22-Cf W- MIDSUMMER 3 A L A - )IES.-The hot solar rays that ripen the arvests generate many distressing dis ases. If the liver be at all predisposed to rregularitie., this is the season in which >illious attacks may be anticipated. A reak stomach, too, is weakest in the sum aer months, and the loss of vitality through he pores by excessive perspiration is so reat, that a wholesome tonic, combining )so the properties of a diffusive stim lant and gentle exhilarant, is in many as,.s necessary to health, and under no ircumstances should be dispensed with by ickly and debilitated. Of all the prepara. ions intended thus to refresh, sustain, and ortify the human frame, there is none that viil compare with Hostetter's Celebrated komach Bitters. They have been weighed a "he balance of experience and not found ranting; have been recommended from he first as a great medicinal specific, not i a beverage, and in spite of interested pposition from innumerable quarters, tand, after a twenty years trial, at the eaId of all proprietary medicines intended or the pievention and cure of all ordinary omplaints of the stomach, the liver, the owels, and the nerves. In the unhealthy istricts bordering the great rivers of '-lifornia, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters ay be classed as the stardard one for very rpecies of intermittent or remittent ever. The people who inhabit those dis. r!CLs, place the most Implic-t confidence i the preparation-a confidence that is in reised every year by the resclts of its peration. As bitters so, called, of the most per. icio-s charaeter, are springing up like gison every side,' the public is hereby >r-warned ngainst the dram-shops frauds. .sk for lostetter's Bitters, see that the Lbel, etc., are correct, and remember that le genuine article is never sold in bulk, tit in bottles only. July 3, 27-im. se- STARVATION IN THE [IDST OF PLENTY.-A living man is con nually exerting mechanical force and iving off heat; and in proportion he is otinually und-rgoing a loss of weiht lat is to say a loss of substance. This fe-long production of heat and of me hanical force is not stispended even during leep. Not to go farther, sleep does not iterrrupt respiration-a clearly 'mechau -a! function. As to the generation of eat it is unnecessary to insist. It is plain hat this ceaseless i?nifesting of vital force rith its accompanying and strictly propor ioned wasto could not continue forever. 'he taan would dwindle to nothing. But ang before the effects of this graduel dimni tion beconme appparent, they are felt in he form of the two in'nerious sensations unger and thirst. To etill these eravings, o restore the lost weight, and to put the tan in a position still to keep on losing reight (as the price of keeping on produ ing heat and mnechnical foree) it is ne essary that he should be supplied v:ith bree things-air, water and food. Now imply receiving food into the stomach is ot truly receiving food into the systema. strtctly speaking, food lying in the stomn ch is as truly without and not within the >ody, as is food held in the hollow of the hosed hand. Only when it has been horoughly digested and assimilated can it Le said that it is really received into the ystem. But how seldom is the organism iia position thoroughly to assimilate muffi jent food! What are the consequences? ~he outcome exceeds the income and the odily strength fails because the system can 0 longer keep up the mutually balancing raste and renovation. Here it is that a olsie stimulant (such as Dr. Fisch's Bitters) roves so beneficial-it might almost be aid, so indispensable. "WARE. & ScHtMITr, Philadelphia, ?rO rietors of Da.
