W dn y, April 30, 1873. A Handsome Gratuity. We learn by our exchanges, that Dr. H. H. Toland. a native of New berry, and for many years a highly respected and successful physician in Columbia, but who left there for California about 1852, in which latter place he has since resided, and where he has accumulated a large fortune in the practice of his profession, has lately made a gratuity of the hand some of 875,000 to the Toland Medi cal College of California. The Indian War. Recent advices from the Modoc country indicate that Gen. Davis, who is in command of the Federal troops, will soon bring Capt. Jack and his braves to ternis. The policy seems now to be, extermination to the In dian. It is somewhat questioned whether -this policy is the dictate of justice and humanity. It is true that the murder of Gen. Canby was a das tardly outrage, but there are no doubt many extenuating circumstances with which the people are not acquainted. The government has no doubt always meant to do right, hut the Indian Agents appointed to carry out the Acts of Congress have most commonly acted in bad faith towards the savages. Before the white man's foot trod the soil of this continent, the Indian, amidst plenty and happiness, roamed through the almost limitless forests of his own land. He built his wigwam, fashioned his canal, and indulged un restricted in the chase. He buried his children and brethren in peace. and re-isited at his pleasure the graves of his fathers. He was then in num bers like the leaves of his own forests, but untimely frosts have nipped those leaves-they have fallen to the earth, and the cold wintry winds have driven them withered and dead towards the Western seas, and soon the last one will have passed beneath the waves of of the peaceful Pacific. We do not wish to be understood as indulging in any sickly sentimentality about the "Poor Indian," but we do say that he has rights which have been set at defiance-he has been de ceived by a people possessing chris tianity. This should not have been done. Even the brute has rights be stowed by its maker which man dare not in honesty violate. More Corruption. The State Treasurer, Cardozo, seems to be determined to let the various County Treasurers know that the State of South Carolina is not yet willing to excuse every species of dishonesty. Allen of Greenville and Eichelberger of Edgefield, Treasurers of their re spective Counties, have been arrested upon charge of fraud. How long and to what extent County Treasurers have been allowed to buy up County claims at vast discounts, and pay them off dollar for dollar out of funds in their own hands collected for State and County purposes, is not known. We do know, however, that the financial condition of the State is bordering on bankruptcy-and outside of the many known corrupt acts, we believe that the purchase of claims against the State by County Treasurers is a fruitful source of this condition. We care not whether the claims are pur chased by the Treasurer directly or through agents, the result is the same. It necessarily tends to weaken popular confidence in the ability of the State to pay its just indebtedness. We are i n the habit of loudly berating the crimes and vices of autocratic or monarchial governments, but reason compels us to admit that in Republican go?ernmlents, corruption, from the very nature of the form, becomes hydra headed. The only advantage, without 4 revolution, that the people under the latter forniis possess is, that they may by the exercise of proper virtue put down dishonesty-but when the people be e>me so venal that public officers, their chosen servants, are allowed to fiaunt high in the air golden banners upon which in gilded characters are in scribed such mottoes as "fraud," "dis honesty," "I pursue the cause that pays me best," or others of like iport, then surely we have a right to become alarmed for the success of popular governments. Xannaheturing Interests, ste. In a previous issue we asked the question who is to blame in reference to the apparent negligence of our good citizens in the various enterprises suggested for the advantage of New berry? Some people have been in dined to put the blame on the editors, others on the merchants, and many more upon the capitalists of our com munity. We have puzzled our brains in endeavoring to solve the problem, and at last i.ave arrived at a solution -which we deem satisfactory, and it is tis: The business men are satisfied with the per cent. they are making in other investwents. This solution must be correct,for no man willebange hisio ve3amentinlesheIs cobvinced that thu cag ill.enhance'his profts. Now there can be no quetition as to the great pecuniary advantages alone that would result to our community by the estab lishing of some extensive manufactur ing interest in our midst. And we take it for granted that no estailish ment in the manufacfuring line would pay better than a Cotton Mill. Apart from the direct pecuniary advantages that Cotton Mills would give to New berry, there are other indirect ad vantages which would arise of no less value. Why then do nien allow the act in corporating "The Newberry Cotton Mills" to lie a dead letter in the statute book ? Is not our solution of the problem correct? And if it is, let other men-capitalists from abroad come to Newberry, invest their money and realize the vast profits which will in a short time fall to their share. Of course, we would very much pre fer to have our own people embark in the rich enterprise suggested to them., but if they are satisfied with their present investments, even they should be anxious to have foreign capital to build up interests from which the community at large would reap the greatest advantages. We have higher hopes of our people, however, that they will not allow so rich a prize to slip from their grasp. Why not begin work at once? See what can be done by subscription. There is nothing that will so surely lead to success as striking while the iron is hot. Narrow Gauge Railroads. The great favor narrow gauge rail roads have met with in all parts of the country is a proof of their adaptability to present requirements. More par ticularly have they been approved in the West, and at no distant day will they be built for all local purposes. From the St. Louis Globe, we copy the below statement. which will show what has been done in narrow gauges: MILES. St. Louis County Railway, constructing. 52 Cairo and St. Louis, about 40 miles of track down.......................150 Kansas Central, 70 miles in operation. .400 Big Sandy Valley, Ky., work commenced156 Ripley, Tenn., 25 miles completed..... 61 Denver and Rio Grande, 160 milei in operation.................. .....soo Arkansas Central, 50 miles in operation. 1 60 Bell's Gap, Pa., 17 miles built; 60 miles graded. ................

A narrow guage railroad is talked of from San Jose to Alviso......... Peachhottom, Penn., in construction... 80 Norfolk and Western Virginia, surveyed and progressing..............369 Besides ,the above, says Crofutt's Western World,are a nnmber of short lines, finished or progressing, in dif ferent parts of the country. In Cana da, the Toronto, Bruce and Grey has proven very successful. At the South, a large number of miles is projected, which will connect with the Cairo and St. Louis. A line of three feet gauge is also projected from St. Louis to the Atlantic seaboard, and the eastern end of the line is being vigorously pushed I forward ; and tde St. Louis and West ern Railway is rapidly assuming shape, and will form a link in the chain of roads fromi the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. This statementi does not include any of the narrow gauge projects on this coast, some of which will, without doubt, be speed ily commenced and energetically push ed. Proposed Change of the Presi dential Inauguration Day. t "The Cincinnati Enquir-er,commnent ing upon the fact that so many Presi dents have taken severe colds in conse quence of the inclement weather on the 4th of March, ruggests that inaugura tion day be changed to some time in the 1 month of May or June. If there be nof change fo.rward there might be a change to a litt''e time backward and the day bet fixed for the 22d of February, when Washington's Birthday add the inau- t guration of the new President might t both be celebrated at the same time. t This would prove a fitting honor in com memorat.ion of the natal day of the ~ "Father of his Country," an anniver sary that is unfortunately becoming a less and less observed as time and , events press on. But if the 22d of ~ February be thought unsuitable why s not Independence Day." s Not Independence Day surely, for 0 "the remedy would be as bad as the disease," perhaps worse. They might p experience Su.n stroke, from which re covery would be uncertain. Let them Z take cold still.

DEAR READE.-The eye-opener of the jerman Fest has just awakened the echoes )f the city by the sea, and bids the sleeper, nelined after the yesterday and night's rolic, to slumber and sleep just a littlemore, :o be up and ready for another engagement; hat is we presume it was that signal, for it was a big gun, and the Schutzenfest, reader, s a very big thing, one of the biggest of its kind, and though we do not hail from the "Fatherland," nor expect to make such an early start for the scene of fun, frolic and festivity, yet we start from a profound slum ber, as thousand; of others do, and unlike many ofthat large number, who will take another turn in spite of eye-opening big-guns, jump immediately from a comfortable bed, and proceed to work up a letter for you. The memory of that early morning signal has the effect of another wakening, a thought of that signal, or firbt gun which brought us to our feet in 1F31-the opening of the bombardment of Sum:cr. Then, too, thousands were startled from slumber. and the streets were soon alive-but how differ ent the occasion between then and now; no eager, excited, hastily dressed men and women hasten down to the docks and the battery, but a happy people rig themselves out in their best, and with stuiling faces, and hearts full of expectation, hasten to the va rious rendezvous, ready to move to the scene where will be enacted another course in the programme as arranged for this day. And there will we leave them for the present, to get to the ground as best as they may, some by railroad, for the South Carolina road sends out a train every 2V minutes for that purpose, others by steamboat, many more [a vehicles of every character and descrip tion, and not a few on "shanks mare," that is on foot. While this is being done, let us go back briefly to Monday afternoon, and take a fresh start from Newberry. Don't be alarm ed, however, lest we go over all the weary miles of the way, or recite the few melan choly incidents, which came under observa tion, in the endeavor to palm them off as either good or amusing, but skip the distance to within about eight miles of Columbia, where it was discovered a fire had swept over the track, and consumed a trestle some afty feet long. Visions of being left like babes in the woods, floated through the imagination, fears of missing connection with the night train, of going to bed supper-I !ess-provided there had been beds-and )ther thoughts equally as fearful were hap itly dispelled a few minutes after stopping, by a sight of the smiling countenance of Donductor Bush, and the cheering intelli ;ence that a half mile on the other side he ad a train to put us through. We trans ferred. The only other point in this connection was an unfortunate accident which happened to a lovely young lady. In getting down rom the platform a compound dislocation as sus. aiued by th is young daughter of Eve; t was a painful affair, and our sympathetic oul run over at first sight. It happened we Jhink thrcugh the ardor of Conductor Bush's ,lasp, in a.uistin her down to the ground 7rom the step, and which could only be ac omplished by placing his right arm around ier waist, the distance being considerable. iomehow, the filling which lendis such at ;ractiveness to the figure in a back point of rew, was pushed from its central position, tnd lodged on the left hip side, where some 'ortunate obstruction stayed its fturther pro gress. We merely mention this as a warn ng to all lovely young females who travel' hat they may be careful In securely fasten ng the ir back adornments, lest there be fires >n the road, and gallant condnetoR t> lift :hem from fearful heights. It is gratifying ; add that the pain which might have re ulted from the accident, was spared from he fact, that the fair object knew nothing of t. Blessed are they who k-now nothing. Ve reached Columbia after night-fall, but nade the connection. A fearful chapter might be written of that tight ride, of selfish passengers-they are dways to be found on railroad coaches, and nore particularly at night; singing women io lady ought to sing on the cars; crying >abies-a thing which should be stopped by il means; of sleeping seats, so-called, which re only comfortable to one and not two,unless hey happen to be courting, just married, or >f one mind generally, for these seats are o nicely balanced on the tilt, that the heav est occupant, if there be two, carries it for rard with the slightest movement. This >eing the case then, no matter how sleepy a ellow may be, or how fast asleep, if his bed 'ellow happens to be the heaviest, and takes Snotion to bring his corporosity forward, he jig Is up with him. The builders of these 'uds should be made to occupy them for a >eriod of nights and in company with rail 'oad directors and presidents-perhaps, then, something more comfortable might be pro ected. And now, render, let us go back again, for >y this time a large crowd has assemibled on he festive grounds of the Schutzenfest, va iushy engaged in Target-shooting, nine-pin -oling, gymnastics, singing, race-running, >alloon ascending, milk feeding, sugar-eat ng, molasses-diving, sack-running, greasy ol climbIng, horizontal-greasy-walking, rapezenfying,1lager-beer drinking, perspira ion-exciting exercise on the ligh t as well as teasy toe fantastic, etc., etc. What a gala cene it is-a thousand or two or more of >eople, of all sexes, sizes, ages and nationali ies, all in search of fun. It must be seen to e fully appreciated. Capt. Melchers does he honors in a right royal way, in the ban uet or rather liquid reception room, under he great Terpsichorean Hall, and there the nvited guests are presented to the president if the Fest, and madIe to imbibe of the real thine and othermines-S. of T. please take otice we did not imbibe-and the feast of eason, so-called, and flow of soul goes on be livelong day. The inspiring music above, towever, and the shuffling of hundreds of et is a greater attraction than the popping f corks, the passes of wit and sentiment in be guests parlor, or the punch and judy, be one-legged tight rope walker,' or any.of be other many outside amusements, and b rash and crowd is always greatest towards be dancing. Squeezing through the crowd d doorway what an animatedi, sight is seen, 'e could only compare it to a greart huran dal wave. At least, if not more than one ndred and fifty people on the floor at -me me, engaged in a kind of wavy, jig-like alt-and to such delicious music that the norest dancer, if possessed of any soul-ma c, could not help but keep time to it. In ach a crowd of motion it could hardly be herwise than that many collisions would ecur, and the falls were frequent and heavy,, t the merry laugh which followed we sup ae soothed whatever of pain was felt. .nd the bloomIng, beautiful frauleens! it is ufortunate that time or space neiLher will trmit, such a description as they merit. ihat pictures of health were there presented -some of them were perfect beauties, and e looked, and looked, and locked. As in e liquid room we imbibed not, so in the ming hall, we neither indulged in the ay waltz, or took part in the fascinating neers, we simply look ed, and perhaps beat little time flat-footed, and laughed when a mucing girl would come down full length tha8oor, and perhaps agother -couple on4 top the first in charming confusion. It was a Aiht. But we must draw this letter to a close, an.1 get out of the fearful dusit-there fore we leave the gay scene and retrogade to w3rd the train which is waiting to take back to the city its last load. of visitors'for the night. One oj the greatest pleasures to an up country visitor is the convenience afforded by the street railway, which traverse the principal avenues and relieves the tired, foot sore, pedestrian of many weary miles of walking. The company is still presided over by Col. Thos. Riggs, a gentleman well qualified for such an active and important position, and we are pleased to add also that Captain C. Sigwald,well known in Newberry, is yet in charge of the entire line. To both of these gentlemen we are indebted for many substantial favors and kind amenities, which help larely to make our stay unusually agreeabe. We are glad to add that thegood management exhibited in the conduct of this important interest has made the street railway a success, and that a handsome dividend is paid by it. Charleston is unusually lively just now, and will continue so for many days, for next week the Flora! Fair comes off, and many people will visit the city, swell the hotels, and leave their surplus change to fill the pockets of merchant,, hotel keepers, and others, and it is well that these gala occasions are conceived. Speaking of hotels, we are reminded to write a word or two in praise of our old favorite, the Pavilion, and now under the proprietary con lrol of Messrs. G. T. Alford & Co. It is gratifying to say that the Pavilion is one of the most popular hotels of the city -Mr. Alford the manager, being one of the happy few who fully know what is needed and how best to make an institution of this kind acceptable to the travelling public. His long experience as a raihoad man and conductor-about fifteen years-perhaps fit ted him for the position he now so properly fills, or perhaps it was a natural fitness, we know not which; but suffice it, the Pa vilion now in all its various parts and partica lars, is a most comfortable and satisfying house. The dining room is a model of elegance and taste, in appointment, as well as in the character of its food, and as a proof of the appreciation of the labors and abilities of its gentlemanly manager and his associates in the business office, it is filled to its utmost capacity continually. The pro prietors have expended a very large sum in furnishing and otherwise adorning the house, and we learn, chat this Summer, it is their intention to lay out several thousand dollars more, until they shall make it second to none. Long may it wave. The markets do not show an advanced vegetable condition, the seasons having been backward; but still it is pleasant to go through them and look at what is offered. The starving people of Newberry are inform ed that the meat market is superb; the beer, mutton, pork and veal makes the mouth water. But we reluctantly stop, in tender consideration. And now reader, if you have found the above letter in any particular dull, please remember that it was written before break fast, and almost in sight and quite in sound of the rich and elegant feast preparing for the early morning meal. Put yoturself in our place and answer if the delicious N. Y. mtetton chop, the juicy steak, the fresh fish, the soft egg and other good things known to be on hand, would not have distracted your thoughts and caused you to slightly mix things. a We regret to ada. this poor fellow fell and broke the thigh of his injured limb. Quarterly Meeting of the Grand Division, of the Sons of Tem perance, of South Carolina. This Grand Body convened in Masonic HlaIl, in this town, on Wednesday afternoon, 23~d inst., A. M. Kennedy, Grand Worthy Patriarch, in the Chair. The delegation in attendance was rather meagre, only about fifteen Subordinate Di visions having been represented. The afternoon ress-ion was consumed in the initiation of delegates, and hearing the Reports of the G. W. P., and G. S. A con gratulatory telegram from the Grand Lodge of Good Templars, then in session at Winns bore, was read, and replied to by telegrap.h. The Report of the G. S., gave some inter esting statistical information in regard to the rise, progress, and present condition of the Order in this State. It shows that since the resuscitation of the Order in 1870, 47 Subordinate Divisions hare been organized, with a miembership aggregating 1,700, near ly-while all were reported in good work ing order, save two only. The present pr osperous condition of the Order is due, in a large tmeature, to the indefatigable la bors of the G. S., Oliver Hen itt. He shows his faith by his works, and is stretching every nerve to increase the numbers and efficiency of tihe Order. The G. W. P., in his Report, took a comn prehensive view of the situation, as it pre sented itsell to his mind. Hle knew of no thing that was calculated to disturb the harmony of the Order in this State, except, perhaps, the colored question, as it is term ed, which he thought was susceptiblet of a satisfactory arrantgement, or that such a quietus could be effected as would virtually neuitralize it as a disturbing element for years to come. It would, doubtless, be in teresting to trace this question through its intricate windings, but space forbids. Suf fiee it to say, that at the last session of the Grand Division, in Columbia, resolutions were passed which allowed the formation of colored Divisions, with separate passwords, with the distinct provision t hat so soon as four Subordinate Divisions were formed, they shoulhd be organized into a Grand Di vision, and when four Grand Divisions wr-re formed they should have a separate Nation gl Division, thus keepiag the two races apart, as is thte case to-day in regard to the Germans in Ne w York. These resolutions are to be submitted to each Subiordirnate Division ini this State for action. an1d w ill come up before thre Grand Division for final action, at Cauinden, in July next. The G. W. P., and G. S., were ebosen delegates to the National Division, which meets in New York, in June next. Resolutions were adopted, commtemora :ive of the life, services, and death of Rev John Gulpepper, who was an active worker in this cause, and was, at the timhe of his leath, a Past G. W. P. This Body adjourned Thursday afternoon, tfter passing resolutions complimentary to :he people of Newberry for their hospitali ty, and to the various Railroads which so kindly reduced the fare of the delegates. A Mass Meeting was held in the Town ]all, Thursday night. Brief addresses rere made by several of the delegates, who elated the great good the Temperance :ause was doing in their localities. Inci ents were.mntlnned wiih uhowed. how the Sons of Temprr.nce had r.iken nic by the h2nd, ;who had be'toei dlgrace to themi !ves and us-lie s to their famii , and lifted them up fi their piostrate con dition and estatWit-hed :hem upon a sure basis of prosperity. FOR THE II ERALD. Let us Exaine Before We De ~ cide. Some visitors at a Sunday School recently, hearda teach er txplain toaclass thatJoseph's coat was probab! not a party-colored gar ment, but simply a -tu:ic or coat reaching to the fe-et. * This explanation struck thm as new and somewhat absurd, and was related by them next day to a good many persons, many if not all of whom joined with them in a laugh at the teacher's expense. Now here is what is said in Smith's Bible Dictionary (probably' the highest authority,) on the subject. "It is uncertain when the art of dyeing becanie known to the Hebrews, the dress. worn by Joseph (Gen. xxxvii 3, 23) is variously taken to be either 'a coat of divers colors,' or a tanic furnished with sleeves and reaching down to the ankles." The latter is probably the correct seise. (See article Dress). .Xew Ro Viscellaneoms. Marshall, Fish, Caudy, Tuesday, Marshall, D>ru1, Oranges, Apples. Thursday, When, Saturday, Marshall. Lawrence.
