The Election. We g.: to press, as the sovereign p-ople gf to the polls, and the decision is being wide. which shall result for weai or woe to this much injured S.ate. We hope that it may be for good. The apathy which has charater iz .d the people, and by which has been entailed insult and injury and crety i:aginable wrong. is at length broken, and a deterination to endure no longer is alike expressed by the good and true men of both parties. It is not a question now of Republicanism or Democracy, but a fight against oppres sion and wrong, and for an honest goverueit under which all classes of citizens can live and enjoy not only evu: rights, but their hard earningq. tThe grievances uder which the peu ple labor have grown toogreat to bear, and the cry goes cut for reform, and I whether the hope which now animates the breast of the eonservative people is realized in this election or not. the struggle will be one which will prove viet.rious in the end. We shall give our readers the result as soon as the retur;S come iu. Up) to 2 o'clock about 1.600 votes have been polled at the Court Houset -the majority of which, of course, are for the Chamberlain ticket, as was expected, this being the precinct at which the str-ongest rally is made. The G3reer: ticket was largely voted here. however. The other boxes, I when heard from., will no doubt chainge I th1e c~omplexionl. Tfhe white citizens h are voted solidly the Conservative i ticket. t Gen. S. MfcGowan.

We must confess, Mr. Editor ie t we somotimes feel considerabl) to nauseated at so much of this kind ': e- gibberish. :'o one denie.; that delv K in,-, in the soil is respectable. as ail oc (Is pat1or. are that benefit the world at but does aiybody think that blowing is and puffing, and sweating through th< Lu hot sun and dust is dignified? II iny be very nicu for people of leisur( is ta read the "Harv-st Home" and im. u- agine the delights of farm life, but lei such character4 follow the plow one day, or handlu the hoe or grain cradle a few hours, and w. opine that a lit tie, at lpast, of their agricultural poe r- try about the honor and dignity oi plowing, and hoeing, and reaping, and tmwing, wil be taken out of them. f We are inclined to the opinion, Mr. "n Editor, that those who see, or pretend " to see, so much of the elevating influ. enee of farm work, and write and talk e, so much about it, are the very persom ;O who work least, and hate it most. Tc - Qwn a large farm, and-be able to hir( in the poor and humble to cultivate it, d while the proprietor dresses in purpie i- and fiue linen, and fares suniptuousl) a- every day, may appear dignified and Y enviable; but that is not going intc a the field and coming down to it, and it those who have tried the latter know a- well how to discriminate between the etwo situations. So, Mr. Editor, all te this talk about sticking to the farm is -nothing wore nor less than bosiA. It e- is true that farming is a good business f- for those that like it, and so is any -trade or calling good for the man who te prefers it; but to compel our boys to d be farmers, or to engage in any pursuit -. that is distasteful to them, is Jike try .iug to a:ake water ?uiu up hill. You It can't do it ! Anmd the croakers who w would make every sharp, active far t- meir's boy "stiek to the farm and coun a- try,"~ when all their thoughts and ac e tions tend in other directions, need not waste their brer.th on the subju, for all such matters regulate them selves. There will be farmers enough of those who like it.

DEAR HERALD: Autumn has made her appearance, but the ratreating robes of summer can yet be seen, as if relue tant to renounce her sceptre and bid farewell to her beautiful subjects, as they don the gay apparel of this sombre season; and what an impressive illus tration of life! of the tenacity with which we cling to it; the ties that bind us here, for we too like the beautiful seasons, pass away; and althougb we "tide as the leaf," it is to inherit a bright hereafter, and guided by the hands of a loving Father to the portals of Heaven, we pass the threshold to enjoy everlasting life, and the society of "good ones gone before." And as autumn retains its beauties until the withering band of decay is laid upon them, so should our fleeting lives be beautiful until their close. The fever, (typhus,) I told you of in my last. has been raging considerably since, but as Jack Frost has made his Iappearance, it has somewhat abated; but not'until it claimed among its vic timis the bright-eyed, intelligent little son of Mr. Aiston, formerly of Fairfield, who was buried at the Episcopal church on the fourth. We Lowlanders-as termed by the mountaineers-were con siderably frightened for a while, but as the physicians dlon't pronunce it an epidemic our minds enjoy a great deal more ease, yet should it prove to' be, I would think more seriously about the 'foetida and tare water, and if required would partake of it. although having to grin and boar it the best I could. Seated under the pines of Monclove bluff a few evenings paist, I witnessed a beautiful sunset view of the valley. The golen arrows of the setting sun, as they were gradually reclaimed from Valley and bluff, threw their flood of brilliance over the' lofty mountains and seemed to ascend until lost over the brow, which, crowned with the bright and variegated foliage oft autumn, made it a scene worthy of the pencil of any artist. Flora still holds court, andl althongh her summer subjects* have deserted the banks of the French Broad, the close of her reign promises to be as brilliant as the beginning, for autumnal flowers are scattered around in the richest profusion, and of the brightest and most beautiful colors. I wish my lady friends down south, fond of the ornamental, had some of the pretty burrs that grow on these moun tain pines, and the beautiful mosses that fiourish here; they would make such such pretty rustic baskets. I know a dear little friend whose deft fingers are practiced in the aft, and I expect to re serve a place in my trunk for the de-1 posit of a quantity for her. A pretty sight I witnessed last week, that of the canvass of a travelling ar tist pitched under the beautiful oaks of Brevard, with the additional charm of a crowd of stylish dressed ladies and gentlemen grouped around it, chatting gaily, who had gone hither to have their pictures taken, and joining the merry group, among which we found many friends and acquaintances, our time passed oft' very pleasantly. No cadav erous looking creatures there but bright1 eyes, rosy cheeks andl happy hearts; and (minus the fever) it seems as if health rides on every invigorating breeze that blows over the old North State. A certain mountaineer having occasion to go far down South as New berry, said if this world was as wide as from here to Newberry in every dire. tion it was a whale. Near Looking Glass Falls it is said the men of the surroulnding country e oss the French Broad on tom-walkersI or stilts. I heard of an instance in which one crossed in this manner, with his little son oh his back, and my opinion is, that the little fellow's squalling pro pensidies must have been very weak, not to have b,eeni excited at the sight before him, aind as it is reasonabile to suppose that lhe had all the holding on to do0. I wonder~ he didn't get weak in the joints and fall off in the river; but perhaps he was one of "daddy's boys," and thought all that daddy did was right, if lie was not on an equal footing with his neighbors. A crowd of us went chesnut hunting among tlle mountains a few days ago, which we enjoyed very much. yet my enjoyment was not perfect, as!I was on a continual lookout for rattlesnakes; and although too late in the season for them to be on the wa.r-path, I thought it not imnrobahle that on hearing the rosity of the more fortunato gatherers for my next supply. I have bet- told that there is a cave among those mountains th:at sticks in every living creature in the surrounding 0 VicinitV the firSt half year, but during the renainder blows them out-not in very eompiact stvle- either-for I have heard of the t:it therefrom of the hides, bones and horns of cattle, ht nothing in connection with reas-onatble animals, as all tourists wisely forbear to explore in that direction. It is called tl:e *Blowing Cave." Although enjoying this delightful scenery, and partaking of the kind hospi tality of relations and friends,thoughts of "home, sweet home~and our dear broken household hand will often intervene and cause the tear-drop to fall, and I long to be with them; but as we will soon strike tents for home I will be contented until then. I have been told that Mill Hill, the first mountain we pass over en route for Greenville, is hannted with the ap parition of a lady whose idea seems to be mercenary, as she appeared to some gentlemen carrying their produce to market as peering over into one of the wagons. I think I will ride horseback when we pass over. for Although there will be a buggy along and I otherwise one of the occupants, yet I would rather she would closely inspect our worldly goods than ourselves; but if I should ride horseback she might jump up be bind me-as all things are possible with ghosts-and I assure you r - exit from the saddle would be in heautong style, and hei ladyship would reign queen of all she surveyed and I fear find in me an inanimate subject; but "ignorance is bliss where 'tis folly to be wise," and we do not know the exact spot where she makes her appearance, and I hope for the children's sake that will accom pany our party as we pass over on our way home that she will remain in se clusion.

IN MEMORIAM, "It is not death to die To leave this weary road, And midst the brotherhood on high, ro be at home with God." JAMEs MI LTON WILsoN, a mnember of this Lodge, died 21SL October, 1874, in the fortieth year of his age. Born in Lexington, S. C., 17th Novemb-r, 1834, he removed to Newberry shortly after arriving at his major ity, and spent all the days of his manboud in this community. His capacity for basi ness and uprigh tness of charac:er gained for him the esteem of all our people, and his loss will be felt by them. Theb Church to which he belonged, by its Couhcil, has testi fied its high appreciation of his worth as a Christian gentleman. And now this Lodge would give some expression of our great regard for his meu:ory, and our esteem for his purity of heart, gen tleness of nature and affectionate disposition. His'death has cast a gloom over the hearts of his sorrowing associates. Yet we would not.marmur at the wise dispensationa of a kind Providence who has permitted our brother, after years of affliction, to find everlasting quiet and .re pose; nor would we call back one who so longed to depat t arnd be at rest. "Rest from thy labors, rest, Soul of the justt, set free! Blest be thy memrory, and blest Thy bright example be!" Be it, therefore. resolved, 1st. That the mnany excellencies of our Brother greatly endIeared him to us, and his death is a calamity to our Order. 2nd. That we tender our sincere condolence to his bereaved famtil-upon whom this heavy affliction ha" tallen-to whom,though, the thorui is not withont the rose, for in the cntempation of his many virtues they will find a sweet fragrance tshed around his memory. 3rd. That the members of this Lodge wear the pisual badge of mourning for thirty days, and that the hall lbe draped accordingly. 4th. That a page in our Record Book be inscribed with his name, time anid place of his birth, as well as of his death, and also the rank he had attained in this Order. 5'h. That a copy of the foregoing pream ble anad resohiztio-is be transmitted to the family of our deceased brother, arnd that these proceedings be pubtished in the papers of the town.
