By reference to Prospectus in another column, it will be seen Mr. Tilman R. Gaines proposes to publish a paper un der the above title, and calbs for subscri bers. This is a progressive age, . anything which smacks of work and practical aims must prove popular, and thus will it be with this new claimant for favor. Read Carefully. A few readers of the Herald have misunderstood the club rates, and think that a single copy of the Herald, together with or.e of the other papers offered is put down at the amount rated for a twenty name elub. This is wrong. A single copy cannot be had at the low club rate. Read the offer carefully, and make up's club of twventy, ten, or five, at once and before the opportunity closes. Liberal and Timely Charity. The late freeze and long continued dreadful weather caused mnuch suffering to the poor in the City of Columbia, in consequence of the scarcity of wood and the high prices asked. We are pleased to see in the Columbia papers that Mr. Ri. C. Shiver, the enterprising merchant of that city, sympathizing with the suf fering people, nobly and cbaritably came to their succor in tbe bestowment of a large quantity of wood, fifty cords we be lievre. A timely and liberal charity. Pomeroy's Democrat. This lively old representative of Dem ocracy grows livelier, spicier and more vigorous with every year's growth ; and its gutspoken, independent course has made it one of the most popular papers of its kind. Its editor, Mr. Pomeroy, widely known as 'Brick', promises to make it more acceptable during the pres ent year, by making it more independent, in fact a TERtY INDEPENDENT paper. Of a truth, no man is better able to do so than Mr. Pomeroy, for he always has a full supply of approved ammunition on hand-, an.d is, therefore, prepared for war at any and all times, with more grape, red hot balls, needle guns or the like. For spicy variety take the Democrat. The Year ,Tust Closed. The year 1S72 will be a memorable one in view of its dreadful record of fear ful disasters by fire, wind, water and upheavals of earth. No such chapter of events perhaps has ever been recorded in the same space of time. The loss of life has been unparalleled, as also the destruction of property. Both Conti nents have suffered. The contemplation -is a sad one, but it conveys a lesson, which, in these times of rush and hurry, in which every one goes in for self, and but little thought is given to aught else than the accumulation of riches, ought to cause men to pause and consider the uncertainty and brevity of life, its pur poses and pursuits. Man proposes, but Gad disposes. The chapter of disasters written of tbe osst is a lesson to all. Wbaweil be the history of this year? ? Te Old an stb WNewrear. The year 1872 has gone. Gone with I his weight of cares and sorrows-gone with the tears and laughter too, of earth's many peoples-to join his fathers,. the other years, in the Halls of Eternity. How many disappointments, how many unrealized hopes, >agonies and regrets have been crowde46ithin the little.com. pass of 1872 W hat heart that has not had- its deep sorrow during the year which has just left us forever ? Expecta tions, which one year ago bid fair to have the brightest realizations, have ended in failures. Many of our fondest hopes, like summer's fairest flowers, are now withered and den. None but the idler or drone, however, has bet n greatly grieved or rendered inconsolable at these failures-these blighted hopes. The man who has iived the most successful life, who has beent crowned by the world with its highest honors may, and often does, die withoot having consummated his dearest wishes. 1872 is in the past. The deeds of men and the acts of nations performcd in 1872 have become historical. It becomes each of us then as rational creatures ;o exam ine closely our conduct and thoughts during the year just gone, and by the light it furnishes mend our ways in the future. If we have withheld that which is justly due our neighbor -if we have spoken harshly without a just cause-if we have been uncharitable-if we have wronged any man, it is eminently proper that we should correct the errors and wrongs, as far as our ability will allow, and having formed new and better reso lutions at the beginning of the new year, endeavor so to live up to them, that we may bid adieu to 1873 without regret. Each one should live and act in such a manner that society and the world will be better for his having lived, and, as the circle of life is but meagre at most, one has no time to idle. We must work while the daylight lasts, for the night soon comes. Look at the number of distinguished men in the arts and scien ces, in religion and literature, who ceased thtir work in 1872, because the night came : Charles Levei--author of Charles 0' Malley-will give us no more rich de lineations of Irish character. The "Fern Leaves" must now wither, for "Fanny" is not here to tend them. D'Aubigne is no.more. Horace Greeley, James Gordon Ben nett, Edward A. Pollard, Dr. Converse, Gen. Wright, and many others in this and other countries, have been lost to journalism during the year just ended. Science has lost Bobinet, Dr. Lieber, orse, Fennerback and Mrs. Summer Ville. Many distinguished 'liv-ines have gone to their reckoning. Among whom may be mentioned A,-chbishop Spalding,Bish op McGill, Peter Gartwright and Dr. Mulvey. The Stage has iost Forrest, Miss 0' Neill, Buchanan, Hackett, and a score of others. Among foreign celebrities we find on.l the death-roll, Presidenit Juarez, of Mexi co, the Duc de Persigny, Don Angel Iturbide, Sir Henry Bulwer, Charles XV. of Sweden. The roll is too long to call all the names. Is it not pertinent to ask :who will take their places and carry out the work begun by these men ? We may console ourselves with the pleasant re fection that we are not intended to oc cupy so conspicuous a position among the. great ones of the world, but does this reflection shield us from the respGn sibility under which we res.t, of perform ing well the task set before us ? We think not. It is our duty to work-to put our hands to the plough and not look back, and then if we fail we need attach no blame to ourselves. Let us all then, while the year is yet y oung-while as yet no crimes, no dishonest deeds blot and blur his fair face, resolve to do our whole duty to ourselves. society and tour God. Entering upon a new year and another volume, with prospects which happily brighten as each day adds to the age of the year, we feel constrained to tender our hearty acknowledgments to the many readers of the H1TtAL, for the friendship and good will manifested toward us so long, and to every one, man, woman and child, who have been interested in the success of the paper, and our personal well being, we tender the compliments of the season, and the sincere at d earnest wish that the year lS73, may indeed and in truth pirove a Happy New Year. It shall be our aim, as it is our deter mination, in turning a new leaf of the HERALD, to make its Columns and pages as bright and neat as the "Art Preserva tive of all Arts," and our typographical experience can make them, and the mat ter with which they shall be weekly fill ed, so interesting and instructive as will render the paper acceptable to all condi tions and classes. In furtherance of this object we shall get such intelligent as sistance, as our finances will admit, and ll we ask is, that the long continued friendship and patronage of our readers be still given us, and a kind influence be exerted in gr inimg us other readers, for the more we gain in names on our sub scription books the better able will we be to improve the appearance as well as fiing of the HERALD. With renewed kind wishes for every reader, and that we may all continue to herish mutual good feeling through the time to come, we set in for the duties of: the hour with the firm purpose to do that which is right. WAsfINGox, January 4.--The: Pres ident to-day pardoned from the Albany Penitentiary David Rainshaw and Gal1 bi-aith Hlambright, convicted of Ku Klux tnses aiid sentenced, the forme-r to t eight and the latter to two years im0 Wfiamaston Female College This delightfully situated institution opens on the 3d of Febr.uary next, and under the most flattermg prospects. Its principal, the Rev. S. Lander, is acknow ledge to -be most eminently fitted for the high and important position he fills, and we are pleased to learn that. his mer itorious efforts in developing the moral and mental character of the young la dies confided to his care, is so highly appreciated as well as successful. Pa rents and guardians contemplating the sending of their daughters to William ston, are informed that Mr. Lander will pass up the G. & C. R R.. on Sturday, Feb. 1. Sen card elsewhere for te ins. A Celestal Marriage. Our lady readers will be p,leased to know that the him.4, gramie.t and most delectable wedding, m hie: is known to have occUrld in1 two ce:i*uries-so the papers say-came vff in China in October last, a d: tailed description of which is only now pnt-mitted to be read by "outside barbarians." It is the mar riage of none other :nan the youthful Emperor of the "flowery dominions" only 17 years old-to the beautiful pink eyed, oliveskinned, little footed lady Aluta-isn't it a sweet namec-and the cha ming possessor is said to be as sweet as her name. But, horrible to add, an inexorable custom makes it necessary that the Eumperor marry several other wives at the same time, and which was dono. The lady Aluta, however, is "lady parainunt," the others playing second fiddle to her high-scented sweetness. How happy must she be, for it is said that all the looms of Nankin, Canton and Hong (;hou have been employed for years in preparing silken stuffs for her trousseau, at a co8t of half a million, while it is said that the aggregate cost of the preparations and presents amount to fifteen or twenty millions! To :give an: idea of some of the presents made on this august and mighty occasion, we add in the language of the correspondent the following paragraph: "Your readers may not object to bear something about the bridal presents those, I mean, made by the .Emperor to the bride and her parents. According to custom they were sent some time in advance to the house of the bride, occu pying five da) s in the delivery, and each day being borne by between five hundred and a thousand men. Furniture, cloth ing, silks and satins, jewels and solid treasure made up the bulk of the pres ents. Among the gifts to the Empress I may mention a thousand rolls of satin and sixty-eight horses. To her parents were given a hn:,dred and thirty ounces of gold, a golden tea-canister, six thous: and six hundred ounces of silver, fire hundred pieces of satin, fur robes, six horses, &c. Nor was the grandfather forgotten, the presents for him being similar in kind but less in quantity." TaE GREENV.ILLE TaAIN.-Much unneces sary uneasiness was caused last evening by the non-arrival of the Greenville and Colum bia train on schedule time. A freight train ran off the track near Frog Level, blocking the road and delaying the passenger train, which, however, arrived here about 12 o'cock, midnight.. [So,uth Carolinian, Jan. -5th.

WOOD (the founder and editor of this popular monthly, now in its twlfth volume), makcs the following an nouncement of his policy for the new year: At the commencemen t of our magazine we had no idea of confining ourselves to the use of original matter: but we finally yielded to the advice of literary friends, used no selections, and announced a series of eigh teen $100 prize stories which were continued regularly for as many months. In addition to paying the highest prices for other con tributions, we called to our editorial aid some of the best li:erary talent in the country, And yet we have not been able to get the "original'' material necessary to make the work satisfactory. Hence we have remodeled the magazine in accordance with our origmnal plan, and shall henceforth avail ourself of selections from foreign books and periodicals, and present the cream of the best thought epncerning the subjects treated. The January number just received is high ly interesting, and an improvement on for mer numbers. Price One Dollar a year. Send for speci mcn copy which will be mailed free. A ddress S. S. WOOD & CO. Newburgh,. EcEcic MAGAZINE.-The January num berof the Eclectic commences a new volume, nd commences it in such a way as to chal lenge the attention of every intelligent reader to the claims to this sterling periodical. It is embellished with two steel engravings, one of them being a reproduction of Guido's beautiful and pathetic portrait of "Beatrice di Ccuci." This is one of the finest pictures that ever appeared in an American magazine, and is only an exceptionally striking ex mple of the excellent steel engravings with which the Eclectic is illustrated every month, nd which add greatly to the value of its olumes. A flue portrait of Dr. Livingstone also accompanies this number. In literature the Eclectic is always excep tionally strong. Gleaning from the entire field of English and continental current iterature, it presents, from month to month, och an array of Scientific Papers, Essays, iographical Sketches, Rteviews, Poems, and serial and Short Stories as no single maga tine could hope to rival: and it was never so omprehensive and various as it promises to be in the new year. In :.he February number,, new story, entitled "Too Soon," by the muthor of "Patty," wili be commenced,' inted from the author's advance sheets; ud in :ddition to the usual Eng:ish sources, series of translations is promised from the eve des Deux Mondes, and the leading erman periodicals.

C.. about the 1st of Fcbrunry, 1873. a weekiv newspaper, bearing the title of. THE PROGPESSIVE AGE. The limits of a prospectus do not admit of a minute delineation of all the features of the contempl!ted journal. It wiIl be suffi cient to indicate its general character. The character of the Progressive Age will be a newspaper in the widest meaning of the term, embracing wi;hin its columns all infor mation useful .lnd instructive to the public. In Politics :t will be Liberal and Conserva tive,'while :.e most strenuous efforts will be used in the dissemination of important polit ical Intelligence. On all subjects its opin ions will be advanced boldly and fearlessly.

No meastire of Reform will be advocated simply because It is new. und no error in policy will be sustmined, though it may have the sanction and approval of long estab lished usage. As a literary and family newspaper, its se lections will be such as aliaI be who:esome and agreeable to the old, as well as furnish ing instructive and pleasant reading to the young. Though we may not be able to givo Oleographs and varnished Chromos as in ducetments for subscriptions, we shall, how ever, promise to furnish through its co!nmns as far as we possibly can, the unvarnished Chromo of Truth. The Commercial, Manufacturing and Ag ricultural interests of the State shall receive that attention which their importance de mands. Tbe Progressive Age will contribute its mite to the development of her immense resources, and to foster the arts and sciences which minis!er to the well-being of her peo ple. It shall be insisted, too, that Newberry, where we have located, shall partake of the general prosperity, with no attempt to dis parage the local advantages of other towns and sections. The latest intelligence, both Foreign and Domestic, will be carefully re ported. For this ena the Telegraph, and all o:her measures within the reach of the un dersigned, shall be laid under contribution. Terms.-The Progressive Age will be pub lished at $3 in advance, per annam; 10 sub cribers $25, with one copy gratis.
