The Scientifie American.
The "Inier;or" says of this paper:
"It is worth to the man of commou
seh->l education, twice over more than
any rival journAl in the Jnited States.
.and it will teach no man to despise
the English Language, or to regard less
the pursuit of knowledge-for its own
sake, and what it will bring." We
heartily endorse this just tribute of
praise to one'of the best and most in
structive papers published.
Williamston Female College.
The third Collegiate year of this
Institution opens on the 6th of Octo
ber, and under flattering circumstan
ces, as the new College extension is
rapidly approaching completion, which
with the facilities for accommodation
of a much larger number of students.
additional room for recitations, a com
modious chapel room, and a conven
ient library room, etc., will make Wil
liamston second to no other College in
the State. We learn that the new
chapel is expected to be ready for dedi
cation on the 19th of November, and,
that that occasion will be one of much
terest. It -is worthy of notice also,
that President Lander has been ena
bled to add to his able faculty, the Rev.
Samuel A. Weber, who will instruct
in Greek, Belles-Lettres and Natural
Sciences.
One week from this dat, the Ses
sion opens. and if any of our readers
contemplate sending their daughters
or wards to Williamston. we'advise
that they proceed to wake ready at
once.
The Granges.
. Offieial reports show that the whole
number of Cranges thus far known
and accounted for is six thousand and
oier. The rapidity with which the
movement has grown shows its popu
larity, and judging from the past, it
will not be long ere the entire agri
cultural strength of this yast country
is absorbed in the 'organization, and
iuealculable benefit accrue from it.
One of the great causes operating
against agriculture has been and is to
a great extent, the ignorance relating
to it. This will no longer be the case.
A broad and wide intelligence will be
dissemminated through this means,and
farmers will realize that to be success
ful in agricultural pursuits, requires a
knowledge of what thejare engaged in.
There is hardly any other calling
which requires mord thorough study.
iand taining. Tho science whi2h will
enable a man to make two blades of
grass grow where now he only obtains
one,to miaka one acre produce what la is
on)ly now realizing from two, is not
to be despised. A thie>retical idea of
this has long existed, bet practically,
it has not been worked out except in
a very limited way. Now, however, it
will be altogether different, book learn
ing, and information from good news
papers,. will not be the despised things.
as shown in the past. All this and
more will be the' legitimate fruits of
this association of aigricultural inter
ests. No where else does science pay
more than in the soil. It is unneces
sary now to look at this movement
from any other standpoint. As it
grows in strength, and numbers and
imiportanee, great developments will
be manifested.
The Money Panie.
It is to be hoped that the financial
crash has reached~ its crisis, and that
merited confidence will soon be restor
ed to the- monetary world. A large
number of failures and suspensions
have been reported since our last issue.
Up to last Friday the prospect was
anything but pleasant. Sever:d pri
vate B3auks in Richmond and Peters
b'urg were reported as suspended, and
it was even curent.ly reported that all
the Naitional Banks of New York city.
and the Banks. in Charleston, had
closed their doors. Many of these re
ports have not been authenticated.
Rumor seized upon iele hills and
straight way made thema mountains.
Men are easily exeited. and about no
thing so qjuickly as money. It is neC
eessary thecn to take all we hear, in
times like these, with many grains of
allowance-if we woul- arrive at cor
rect results. Tak everything. how
ever, in the worst features in which
they hrave presented themselves, and
we are unable to see how we iu the
South, or moure particularly here in
Newkbrry, are to be materially injured
by the present panic in the money
market. It is true that many of our
mterchants have laid in a large stock
oft goods, and that until the cotton
erpcan be mioved, these goods must
lie as idle capital, still if the pressure
b.. lifted in anything like a reasonable
time. the goods will be disposed of
much mi.ore rapidly than is customary,
and the merchant will-not be the loser.
The cotton is in the country--some
of it has already been exposed for-sale
onI e~ur streets, and it cau't long heg
fir buyers. The whole world is a bid
der for the cotton of the South. It isI
the great heart which throbs vitality
throhont civilization. It must be
had. and if gref-ta i I. awld 1uwt
take thtir place. B,sidez the Suith,:
instead of being eithegreati.y or per
ianently injured by tihe preseni. pan
ic. will only be allowedthe. advntagt
of learning a most v;lkab lessn af
small cost As we enjeturei las
week, the cause of the disease which
has prostrated Wall Street, and sent
its baleful influences abroad over the
land, lies in corrupt, illegitimate spec
ulations in securities "as baseless as
the fabric of a vision." Millions of
dollars have been made from the sales
f bonds upon Rail Roads that had no
existence save in the heated imagina
tion of the speculator-nut only Rail
Road but all other kinds of stock have
been bought and sold with a reckless
regard to honesty that is in the last
degree startling. "Make money, my
son, honestly if you can, and if you
can't-why make money," seems to be
the kind of advice most commonly
followed, especially at the North, now
adays. Do you wish respectability ?
Make money. Do you want social po
sition ? Make mooey. Do you want
to be President ? Make money. Gold
is the key that unlocks the portal to
the gratification of every wish.
Let us learn the lessons of sober
wisdom which the hour teaches. Let
our speculations be honest and legiti
mate, and then although panics and
money crises may come, yet we will
be only temporarily affected.
Since penning the above, a change
has come over the troubled spirit of
the dream, confidence is being restored,
and the dread of a general and wide
spread crash is not now felt. To sum
up the matter we copy the following
paragraph from the 'Star,' as found
in the Pluenix :
"The smoke is clearing away, and
the wrecks appear. What are they?
Half a dozen very rich men have sus
pended payment, bit are quite as rich
as ever; a score of moderately well-off
men have declined also to pay their
dets, and are reaay to jump into the
market when it opens again; one huge
defalcation is disclosed, but so acute
is the panic that it passes with but
little notice; the President has shown
his band, and it don't seem to be pre
cisely. clean."
The Lesson of the Crash.
THE BUSINESS INTERESTS OF THE
COUNTRY UNAFFECTED.
The New York Herald of Saturday
has an abl-e editorial article on the finan
cial troubles, from which we extract the
following:
The crash in.*Wall street, though it
involves a few of the best known bank
ing houses in the city and has destroy
ed more than a.dozen oif the smaller
operators, cannot have the effect of
previous panics, notably that of 1857,
upon the business interests of the
country. Jay Cooke & Co. failed con
f3..mdy am myWre carryrp9g
the bonds of a railroad which was pay
ing little or nothing upon the capital
already invested, and which promised
so little in the future that these bonds
could not be negotiated. Fisk & Hatch,
who also failed yesterday, were deal
ing in the same kind of insecurities.
The smaller houses were to some ex
tent dependent on the large ones. and,
of course, were operating in the same
class of stocks. It is because of this
fact that we think the general busi
ness interests of the country will not
suffer.
Most of the railroads whose stock
is now embarrassing the speculators
are wild-cat affairs. built. as Commo
dore Vanderbilt phrases it, from now
where, and it was impossible that they
should long continue to withstand
the shocks of speculation, based as
they were oni mythical capital and being
without business and without profits.
A reputable house which conducted
the negotiation of their bonds was do
ing a wrong to all the legitimate comn
mercial interests of the. country. WI:ea
Jay Cooke & Co. .undertook to carry
thebonds of the Northern Pacific Rail
road th.ey were laying the foundation
of their dtstiuetion, and the destruc
tion of all simuiliar dealers in similarly
baseless enter-prises. The -downfall
of this house. owing to their relations
with this ioad, was impending for a
long time ; but now that the crash
has cmnec it is to be hoped that the
atmosphere will clear. and that specu
lation will no lo-:ger be allowed to di
vert sound and legitimiate commereial
enterprises from the re.'ular channels
into the devious way of the gamblers
of the street.
It is to be hoped the lesson of the
crash in Wall street will not be disre
garded by our business men. Never
hs the failure of reputable brokers
dne so little real harm or taught so
wholesome a lesson. The great busi
ness i.terests of the country are un
affected, and trade moves on *as if no
thng had happened. A healthier
tone is sure to pervade business eircles
whern these wreeks arc swept away.
The reckless spirit of specnlation will
be restrained. - It will be miore ap
parent, than before that the legitimate
businessof the country is sound and safe,
A week ago general prostration would
have been predicted on the hypothesis
that Jay Cooke & C3o., Fisk & IIatch
and a dozen other leading bankers
should fail. . They have failed, and
yet no serious consequences have re
suited, or are likely to result from the
disasters which have overtaken them.
They were found to be only a few
men making haste to be rich by deal
ing in unsound securities and at tempt
ing to do a larger business than their
capital allowed. While we regret
their failure we reioice that the crash
has had no more evil consequences
than to cie:rr the atmosphere,, and
show the world that the true repre
sentatives of American business and
American credit are unaffected. It
has been, let us hope, like a thunder
storm in midsumimer. The storm is
over, the sky is clearer. and the air
f * : Gi ovE, Sept . 3.*
Mn. Lbiron.-uIIr last lcIIer toyott ended
just as we were about to disembark aW At
kin Tak. Ve will now tale P thea
of narratife and-assiver4 few t*ose
events thatsfforded a)(son ch plesure,
and-which we hope wilt*jplcseou for a few
mients &-their perusal. In the miorning
as we embarked, the'sky was bid from our
view by thick, heavy clouds, but now as w@
disembark. the beautifu! blue of the heavens
is perceptib!e everywhere, und a bright
summer's sun is shining down in its noon
day splendor.' The cheering beams have
driven the dew-drops from every leaf and
twig, and the burning rays are now scorch
ing most unmercifully our unprotected heads.
To see a whole delegation disembark in - the
middle of an open field, afforded comient
for crowded cars, and excited a great deal of
curiosity. We do not know what decision
they decided upon, but enough to, say they
soon left us alone, and in our glory. A kind
friend had come out to meet a friend or two,
but soon found himelfsuddenly surrounded
by a host of friends. It was certainly a
quandary. What must be done with such a
crowd? Well, our good friend soon came to
the obvious and inevitable conclusion, that
they must be quartered, so lie began by
putting two of the number in a good pasture,
and one fellow concluded he would like to
get into a good pasture, too, so lie followed
the first party. A Bear came along and got
two more, and others disappeared equally as
mysteriously. The crcwd was growing b,a!u
tifully less, and we alarmingly uneasy, but
our friend proposed to the remainder that we
walk some half wile to a Mr. W.'s, which we
did to the tune of "oh, how warm." Here
our friend was not puzzled long, for he said,
I will put about half of you iu a Castle to
night, and to-morrow I will sprinkle some,
and the rest scatter. generally. All was
satisfactory, and in a few minutes we found
ourselves 2eated in a Jersey wagon, and "en
route" for the Castle, which we soon reached
and round most agreeable, but this was only
a temporary home for us for the night, as we
were one of those that- had to take A. Sprin
kle.
On the 22d of August the Synod of South
western Virginia convened at Cedar Grove
Chureb. There was a ftill delegation present,
only one .or two absent. The church is sit
uated in a little grove, near both the railroad
and McAdamized road. As the church was
small and a large number of peop!e were ex
pected, a large arbor was erected for the
better accommodation of those who might
attend. All the 'sessions of Synod were
highly interesting. One of the principal
items of business was the location of a
Female College at Marion, Smythe Co., Va.
The question was discussed, and Marion it
seemed was the place, as it was decided in
its favor by an overwhelming majority. It
was our p!easure tq visit Marion during
Synod, and we were forcibly and favorably
impressed with the place. It is one of the
neatest, nicest alid most sociable little vil
lages we have ever seca. It is surrounded
by the finest mountain scenety and has an
elevated and commanding situation. The
Holston River runs throuli it. and affords
the finest wat.r power. There is an exten
sive flontrlg mill here. run by a wealthy
man. There are a number of influential aed
wealthy men buying property here at pres
ent, and soon a large iron foundiy will be
put in blast. Iron and copper ore is abu1
dant. and the capital is all that is needed to
develop it. But we have digressed from the
subject. We were speaking of the Female
College. The people ot Marion are enthusi
a tic on the subject and arc, subscribing lib
erally, and we predict that ere long they will
have one of the finest Female institutions in
the State. Female educatiou and influence is
felt everywhere, nad these people are not
behind the times, but are awake to their in
terest in this direction. We were shown
seve'al locations proposed for locating the
buildings. All were fine and desirable, and
all that is needed is a little time, when the
btrildings will be erected. For the present.
they have secured a buildin1g lb. town, and
have opened school with flattering.snecess.
Rev. Prof. J.. J. Sherer is p..'ncipal.and is a
life-giving and go-ahead man, who does busi
ness on the square. He has spent several
years in Texas as a teacher, and was sueces
COiZeis omd to be a success. This is
the cheapest and best place to live that we
have found for some time, board being only
$10 per month in the best families.
Let us return to Cedar Grove, as we have
wndered off' some four miles. On Sunday
there was a tremendous crowd out. I don r.
s'e where all the people cime from, but
suffiee it to say they were here. On Monday
there was also a large nember out to hear
the address delivered hafore the Education
and Missionary Society. Tlhere were two
speeches, both chaste and beautiful. We
are sorry our limits will not admit of a sy nop
sis of them. Synod adjourned on Tuesday
evening, ufter a harmonIous and interesting
meeting of~ five days.
We cannot dismiss the subject without
speaking of the kindness and hospitality of
these people. They put aside their occupa
tions and attended the Synod, all the time
administering to every want. They made
most umple provision for uill, and as it was
inonvenient to return home for dinner,
rovided the greatest a bundance of' the nicest
things to suipply the demands ot' the '-inner
man." At home they spared nothing to ac
commodame, amuse, interest and en tertain.
Their kindness andI hospitality will ever be
remembered with grratitude. and our visit to
Cedar Grove be at pleasant reminiscence' of
the past. For the present we must close.
Yours very much,
"ZUL A."

Mu. EDITORn:-Possibly a few lines fromn
our pret.y little village will not be uexeep
tional to your readers. Cokesbury is a quiet,
retired, ru'al village in the County-of Abbe
ville, two miles distant from the Greenville
ad'Columnbia Rt. it., on a high sandy ridge.
HER. sCHOOLS.
This village was originally built on the
ba>is of the sebools located here, families
moving in and settling for the purpose of
educating thecir sons and daughters. Cokes
bury is one of the oldest edacational sites in
the State, having had flourishing male and
female schools for the la.st forty years; and
can boast as fine a galaxy of teachers as any
tow-n in the State. Rlev. George F. Round is
npw the Rtector of her Male Academy, called
the Coke,bury Conferenice School, assisted
by his brother, Professor Robert J. Round.
This school*wes hanidsomnely endowed, but
the casuarlties of war have stripped her of the
geater portion of her endowment. 11cr
spacious building is superceded by a brick
building of humbler dimnsions, and mthe
school the pre-ent year is larger thani it has
been since the war. TIhe students are digni
fed and'well beh aved, showing no disposition
to mischief so frequent in boys of their age.
The board here is very reasonable, being only
ten dollars per month. The Masonic Female
Coll-ge-flourishes under the supervision of
Mr. Christie Benet.
THE LADIES.
These arc hecr c.hief ornament, and fo..,n
tre most actIve por'tion of heor citiaens.
Neat in attire, captivating in manners, in
telligent and refined, they stand second to
none in the State. and are fully equal to the
fair ladies of your town, Mr. Editor.
TOBACCO.*
I am sorry to say that some of her citizens
use it, thoughr none of her clergymen or
ndics With five resident ministers of the
Gspel, none of them rdetile thiemseives with
the noxious weed, arnd .our ladies neither

Cokesbury ho:asts of twg steam mills, one
of which gins, saws anid grinds. It is ow-ned

ad prosperous citizens. Thes other has just
been put l'p by Mr. Hal P. Hodges, art ac
tive and pro'mising young man, and Is de
signed to gin and gr-ind. To-day the first
effort was made to test the boiler, and while
the crowd was standing arour.d, the mis
chievous engineer 'let off steam." All
thought for the moment that the boiler had
burst, and I anm sure, Mr. Editor, if you had
been there you would have admired the
agility of' the proprietor. In vociferous in
tonations, hre exclaimed, "take care," and ini
a moment was safely ensconced behind the
mill h.ouse, peeping out to see what next.

()tr town an the sUlroundiIIg coma
munities, have for the pa-&. few months, run
wild on this gidi and'challe4g6s have
passed and beeN acepted, :and contested.
Crowds of nj ho, and evei ladies, have
turned out as pectai,rs, and thle newspapers
have reported each movement in the giune.
Up to the present tfime, Cokesbury has been
the victor in every contest. It really looks to
me that the intelligent people ot' Cokesbury
and the surrounGing communities could
spend their tine to much be:ter advantage.
As physie.il exercise, it is violent and dan
gerous, and the exposure to the sun must
-counterbalance any benefit received from the
exercise. Besides. it.is the occasion of bet
ing, which is thebasis of gamb;ing.
THE GOOD TEMPLARS.
This orgar.ization flour-shes here, boastin.
the beauty and intelligence of the place fox
the most part, among the young people. To
night, there is a supper given in honor of
some visitors to the Lodge, and some mem
bers who will shortly leave our towa.
THE MORILS.
In point of nforals, Cokesbury stands un
rivaled in the State.' There is no sale of
spirituous liquors, no drinking, no card play
ing or other gambling, but order, civility an
propriety distinguish her citizens,

Mn. EI,roR.-On last l'hursday, the 24th,
after having been disappointed on the
Thursday of the previous week, on accoun
of rainv weathler, a bevy of tihe town'
fairest djughters, and an e<Iual numbier ol
young men, took :t "rmu" to the woods a
"Squirrel Hollow spring," to spend the day
in rural festivi.y. Having had a pleasant
ride to the place of rendezvou4, we sough
a cool, shady spot, where the morning
hours were spent in difl'erent pastimes.
There was spread one of the most bountiful
and deligItIid table.:, that the most fas
tidious appetite could desire or expect.
And if we be allowed to jige from per
sonal observations the party relished it, at
least one or two did ample justice to the
tempting viands.
After dinner the evening was passed in
playing several lively games, one espe.ially
conspicuous, was styled "Admiration,
which afforded much fun.
About sunset we took leave for town, the

FOR THE HERALD.
MR. EDIToR.--We have just closed a meet.
Ing of some interest at Bethesda Church, on(
and a fourth miles from the village of Pros.
perity. By the way, our church is looking
up in that locality. It is wondei,ul how tha
people in that section do things; it looks likt
the work of magic; I went down expecting
to preach in the old church, bat to my as
tonishment, the brethren had gone to work,
pulled dlown the old building, moved it oui
upop the public road, and had it ready tt
preach in, and all the work of about out
week.
Now, M-. Editor, old "HAnD BAneAIN'"
the former name of the church-is one of
thelpast, and, instead, we have Bethesda,
standing upon one of the loveliest locations;
and expect soon to have it ceiled, painted
and glazed. We have some workiug men ia
that count., and expect soon to have a
church, that will take its sAnd abreast with
the other churches of the community.
Yours truly, J. L. 3.
Obituary.
DtED, i n Newberry, S. C., Sept. 14th, 1873,
MATTIL' HOOD Huxv, daughter of Gen. W.
H. and Mrs. Sue E. Hunt, aged eight yeprs,
and nearly three months.'
After a short illness of less thtan a weok,
Ott a calm Sabbath morning, little Matte
closed her eyes on earth, with all its changips
scenes, to open them amidst the glories oi
that Heavenly world where the Sabbath
never ends. Now she is with her Saviot
whom she loved, and whose praise she de
lighted to lisp with her infant tongue. Ileu
and be forever with the Lord. Decar parents
and friends be comforted with the thtough
that your little hlab is gently led by the
Good Shepherd, in the green pastures, and
beside the still waters, where her tender fcee
can never go astray. She is fully realizing
what she so sweetly expressed in a .previous
illness, "I am going to be a lit tle angel up ir
Heaven and wear a beautiful crown, and
have a golden harp, to make such sweet
music, and, mother, then I will comne dow
to the river, and wait on the other side fot
yott and father to come o0; and [ will be so
glad.when God lets you come!"
She will be sadly~ missed in the home circle,
for with a mind-far surpassinig her years,
ber.gen tleness, thoughtful ness, and unselfish
ness, were remarkable. iler heart was full
of love for every living thing. No wondet
shte was the favorite and delight of all who
knew her.
Her pastor closed his touching and appro.
priate remarks at her funeral by saying,
"Thbank God for the memory of such a child!
Thatnk God for the e.umple of such a child!'
Flowers, bright, beautiful flowers, fading
emblems -of the beautiful child; were heaped
upon her coffBn and grave by loving bands,
as she was tenderly laid away to her long
and quiet test.
"The memory of thy love!iness
Shall round our weary.pathway smile,
Like moonlight when the sun has set
A sweet and tender radiance yet.
Farewell! A little time and we,
Who knew thee well,and loved thee here,
One after one shall follow thee."
DEPAR'TED this life, on the 8th of Sept.,
1873, at Helena, Newberry Co., Mr. 1410BER'S
ScRUGGs, in the 60th year of his age.
The subiject of this notice, iin connection
with the late Judge O'Neall, and others
zealous in good works, organized the "Hele
na Baptist Church,"-'of which he was an
earnest and efficenet officer until his death.
This church has lost in him a firm supporter
and most worthy member, and his pastor a
sincere friend and helper. His house was
truly,.called 'I'be MZinister's Home.' Ever
alive to their wants, the 'Man of God' was
made welcome with the warm hand of a
ccet:ul hospItality, the sympathizing heart
of a friend, and the open purse of a brother.
As a husband, he was devoted and true,
ever -mindful of the slightest wish of the
dear one who naade his life a happy pilgrim
age. No task too hard-no toil too much
for her he loved so well. As a father;hc was
kind atnd indulgent, loving his children with
unselfish devotion, counseling them with a
caltm judgument-advisitg them with a view
to their best interest-inculcating by precept
and example a life of busy industry and
strict integrity-impressing on their youthful
minds and hearts a veneration and active in
tercst for that branch of 'Christ's Church,' of
which, for many years, he was a consistent
member.
What enthusiastic yearnings now fill thme
souls of that brokaet hotnc for his love, his
counsels. The spi.it of the lost parent seems
to linger over the remnant of the household,
and the Bible upon its stand-the Hook lhe
loved-seems still tO open to them its pro.
miises in sweet tones, attd c.,lis t hem, as it
were, with an ungcl voice to the land he
inherits, le being dead speaks pro-eminent
ly to them-his departed spirit reminds them
of the hour in which they, too, shall be called
to lay aside the vestments of mortality.
WVhenu we consign the body of a loved one to
the tomb, or witness the last gasp of a dyitng
frientd, we seem to staud ifpon the very bor
ders of the unseen world--to be walking on
the shore of that boundless ocean in which
all the streams of time are swallowed up--we
altmost hear the thnnders of its billows-to
feel the heavings of its waves-and a sense of
immortality rushes upon the soul which at
once oppresses and expands-we feel like
rising and shaking ourSsles from the dust
to do with all' opr might whtatsoever our
hands find to do/&Siuce the night oometh
wbcn no msn can work.'.
Bereaved ones, let your grief be not crush.
itng, but bringing to life from the grave a
calm and holy grief that brings a smile in
the midst of tears, and a foreshadowing of
peace will rest like a halo on your sot row
stricken hearts, with an Inward looking and
heanitng toward that Savior who hal given us
an enlightened hope of a blissful Immortality
-and a faith that n ill glowvin the redeeming
light which radiates from the Cross and the
Tbhrone.
Leaves have their times to full,
And flowers to withier at the north wind's
breath,
And stars to set--but all,
Thou huast all seasons for thine own, U,
