ALPii A.-Your communication came
too late for insertion-will appear next
week.
AccIDENT.-A tender-mouthed horse
on being reined up too suddenly on
Sunday last, reared and losing his bal
ance, fell on his rider, Mr. D. Dansby
result, a broken arm.
AT-NTION is called to the card of
Thos. P. Slider, Esq., Trial Justice and
Attorney at Law. His office is over
the store of McFall & Pool. Prompt
attention given to business.
Tooth Brushes and Tooth Powder of
the most approved kinds, can be had by
calling at the Dental Rooms of
8-tf. THOMPSON & JONES,
NoTIcE.-We are requested to give
notice that there will be a meeting of
the Board of Equalization on Monday
next, the 8th inst., at the Auditor's of
fice. Parties interested will bear this
meeting in mind and attend.
APPOINTED.-We learn that Mr.
Boone has received his appointment to
the postmastership of Newberry, vice
Mr. E. A. Scott, removed. What the
cause which led to. his removal we
know not, but of this we are assured
that he was efficient in his duties, and
his office was a model of neatness and
systematic order.
CHArs BROKE.-We learn that the
chain across the Saluda at Bouknight's
Ferry, was broken on Saturday last, by
remson of the great rise in the river,
w1X tbro;Wht a raft in contact with it.
The 8" passage on Sunday
was b ; horses, cattle and vehi
cles had: to remain on either side res
pectively.
BiDS CALLED FoR.-A contract will
be let out to the lowest bidder for the
romoval of the mud on the streets of
Newberry. The bids to be made at so
much per ton. None but responsible
bids will be considered, as the job will
prove a 'considerable one. Proposals
must be handed in to the County Com
missioners by 12 M., Saturday, 6th of
March.
NEW FnRar.-We take pleasure in
calling attention to the card of Messrs.
Lipscomb & Harrington in this issue.
These gentlemen have rented the store
formerly occupied by Mr. Thos. Cook,
and are prepared to supply the various
wants of Newberry in~select Dry Goods,
choice Groceries and General Merchan
dise. Give them a call and see what
they will do for you.
FIRE.-About three o'clock on Satur
day morning last, the dwelling, kitch
en and smoke house of Mrs. D. R.
Nance, in the Northern suburbs of our
town, were entirely destroyed by fiue.
The fire spread very rapidly and most
of the contents of the building were de
stroyed. Loss about $5,000. $3,500
insurance in the Newberry Insurance
Agency of Mr. Win. F. Nance. Cause
of fire not known.
FAILuRE.-Just as we go to press we
learn that Mr. L. R. Marshall failed
don't be startled-to get up his expected
supply of celery and other vegetables.
We are happy to state they will be here
in the morning. A failure of one day
is nothing, and particularly when it can
be made all right in the morning.
Don't fail to call at the time named and
get a mess of fresh, crisp Charleston
vegetables-our word for it, you will be
the better for having done so.
INSURE-YOUR PROPElfrY.-Attention
is called to the card of Maj. Wmn. F.
Nance, in this week's paper. The ques
tion shall we insure or not is one of easy
solution, and should always be decided
in the affirmative. It is the only safe
guard. In view of the recent fire
by which the dwelling of Mrs. J.
K. G. Nance was destroyed, the holders
of uninsured property will do well to
consider the question. The property
alluded to was fortunately insured.
BURtGLAIRY.-Maj. 3. P. Kinard's four
anile house was broken into one night
last week and robbed of goods to the
amount of about four hundred dollars.
The Major not being one of those kind
of men who will sit down with folded
arms after a loss of this kind, is after
the rascals and will assuredly catch
them. *We are happy to state that he
is receiving a large and complete stock
of goods, and notwithstanding the rob
bery, can supply the country with all
that it needs.
A SMALL POTATO.-We hare until
now always sung the praises of big po
tatoes, but this week a small, very small
.potato claims attention. As it was left
on the table during our abserice we do
not know how many trips it took to con
vey it here, how many wvagons brought
it, or how many baskets it was in, suf
fice it, the potato is here, and with our
eye glasses on we can see it distinctly.
It is of the Irish extraction, and there
can be no question but it was raised this
season. Mr. Amick is ahead in the po
tato line, assuredly.
STRANGE TASTE.-The Wheeler &
Wilson horse exhibited a strange taste
on Monday morning. Tired of draw
ing the machines which have become sc
farmous, he dashed off in the fastest time
on record and made direct for Boozer
& People's'Hardware Store, and would
undoubtedly have entered but for the
crowd of bystanders who interfered.
We have not yet ascertained what par.
ticular artieliKn the Hardware line the
horse wanted, anless it was a barrel of
shoe pegs wich closely resemble oats.
But we are satisfied that was not the
"IhGH Lin" BELow STAIRs.-IIousC
keepers know what high life below
stairs means, as they have had more or
less experience with kitchen maids,
therefore, it is useless to tell them
about that kind of thing. The high
life we call attention to now, is in
teresting to gentlemen only, and for
particulars we refer them to Harmon,
who has just received a large lot of
that celebrated brand of segars, and as
he keeps under the IERALD it is propel
to say "High Life" below stairs. Our
samlples have proved satisfactory.
Catalogues of the Books published by
the Methodist Book IIouse, at Nash
ville, can be seen at the IIERA.) Book
Store, and any selection made there
from will be ordered with prompl)tncs..
Orders respectfully solicited -at the
2-tf 1EAJD BO0K STOIrE.
AFRICANs UNEARTHED.-WC know a
bank, not whereon the wild thyme
grows, but underneath which lie a quaia
tity of Africans. The locality is just be.
yond the Steam Mill, and on the prem
ises of Mr. Rikard. On Friday last he
opened the bank and took therefrom a
number of the largest, perfectly sound
and sweet, and brought thei to the
HERALD office. We hope our lady
readers will not be horrified on being
told that we have cooked and ate a por
tion of them. We pronounce them big
potatoes and sweet.
TrE "EcCALYPTUS GI.om'-S."-Wc I
are indebted to Dr. Thos. G. White. of f
Reaufort, for a paper of the above
named speies of seed, sent, as the ae
companying note says. for distribution
among careful hands who may be dis- 7
posed to raise the trees. The writer i
says the seed should be sown in a box
or jar as soon as Spring opens, and after 1;
the plants attain a height of about 1
twelve inches, are to be transplanted e
into the open air. The virtues of the
Eucalyptus have been so often described a
that our readers are no doubt fainiliar '
with them. The seed were sent to 1:
Beaufort by the Mayor of Melbourne,
Australia, the Doctor informs us. r
s
HIGHI WIND.-Old Boreas got on a
high horse last Thursday, and such a
banging of shutters, rattling of window
sashes, smashing of glasses, fluttering i
and splitting of canvass awnings, shak
ing of crazy frame buildings, bending i
of trees, loosing of tin roofs, upsetting
of chimneys, twisting of stove pipes, r
demolition of hot house coverings, a
scaring of horses, discomfiture of men,
women and children, and turning up of
things generally, was a caution to see.
Nervous men were in fidgets as blast
after blast followed each other in rapid
succession. The only thing which could t
C
not be moved was the mud, the seem
ingly everlasting mud. The damage
heard of was fifteen feet of Wright &
Coppock'sroofing turned up, Mr. Mann's
chimney turned down, anti Dr. Fant's
hot house plants turned out.
A BIG DAY.-Wednlesday last was a
big day with cotton buyers and sellers,
notwithstanding the unfavorable wea-s
ther. So many bags of cotton are note
often seen on the streets of our town in
one day, and especially at so late ae
period in the season, and in consequencet
there was no little activity displayed,
while the pu]ses of the host of buyersi
ran high. There is no doubt that eacht
one was glad when night put a stop to
the scene and they were enabled to restt
from their labors, although they seemeds
as eager for the fray then, as whenc
in the morning the first wagon rolled int
through~ the mud. It will be a day
long remembered, and we hope pleas-t
antly to all, those who bought and those
who sold. A close estimate gives thec
number of bales sold on that day as fives
hundred, and we ask with no little exul-t
tation, can any other town in the State
beat it? The merchants, we are pleased
to saiy, revelled in trade and took in
oodles of cash.
A NEW SENSxrION.-An inquiry was
made the other day as to the peg factory
-"wvould it not soon resume business?"
We regret to answer no-the stock
oders declare that they will have no
more to do with it, the profits arising
from the manufacture not being sufli
cient to pay for the whetstones used in
in sharpening the knives, and for ano
tier reason, that the enterp)rise was not
regarded with favor in the upper circles.
If they cannot make pegs, though. they
can do something else, and we are glad
to see that attention is turned to the1
raising of cats, and some very hand
some specimens are already to be seen.
The ambition is to see who can have
the greatest number, the largQst, fattest
and prettiest. Cats are therefore at a
premium, we tried to buy one a few
days ago, and offered a fabulous price,
but money was no object to the owner,
he went in for cats and cats he was
bound to have. If any one has a surfeit
of cats in the country we advise them
that a fine opening is now presented to
dispose of the same.
SPRADDEs.-Our ~friend Spraddles
in an evil moment went into the dog
line. His investment has proved any
thing but satisfactory. He had a fancy
for a setter, and got one reputed to be
worth twenty-five dollars, but Spraddles
says, after an experience of four or live
months, that the miserable purp is not
worth twenty-five cents. It is not a
setter by any means, for it is always
prancing round, in the day after chickens
and cats, and at night after anythmng1
which happens to be left out loose, such
as door mats, children's hats, aprons.
towels or anything else. Spraddles
p)ronounces it a hound of the meanest
kind, and if there is a species of dog on
top the earth for which lie has an aver
sion it is a hound, and a y'ellow one
especially. As the dog has proven a
fraud, it is for sale ; twenty-five dollars
will buy, if any man can be found will
ing to pay that much for it; if not, any
sum below that amount, and all the
way down to twenty-five cents. The
dog has one good quality, however, he
is not resentful nor easy to take offence,
if he is driven out of one door he will
come in through another in a moment
after in proof that he is not mad.
Spraddles is satisfied that the animal is
not a setter, for it has not sat still a
minute since he became the owner, and
for this reason will sell cheaply. Who
wats a good dog?
SALE-DAY.-OUr streets were unu
suallv animated on Sale-day, and ano
ther season of mud packing has taker
place. We never knew until recentl3
the great benefit resulting from No. 1
Brogans, they dogood work. Notwith
standing the. number and variety o

9ailed, everything passed off as inerri
as a marriage bell, the slight shower o:
rain which fell early in the fight, or ra
ther early in the morning, only tending
to make the fun livelier. It was at
elegant Sale-day outside, inside was no
so good, that is in the IIERALD oM9ce

JALAPA ITM.-An estecmed friend
Lmd well-wisher of the IE:AI.) haS
>icked up the following Jalapa items
mld sCnds to us with promise to Con
inue picking and sending:
Dr. W. A. Williams and family have
-emoved to Walhalla. Our best wishes
bllow them.
There are two stores in the town. the
ne kept by W. II. Eddy, and the other
Py Clark & Folk at the old Jalapa House,
lhe latter gentlemen deal largely in
rugs and medicines.
J. B. Campbell, Esq., is having a
rge store built, and Capt. ). Lafayette
ias the contract. The CLptaill is a
arpenter of considerable note.
Col. G. S. Cannon lately sold four
.nd eight-tenths acres of land for $48(.
here were no improvements on the
md.
Dwellings are in great demand. We
egret this, as Newberry has none to
pare to her sister Jalapa.
The people are anxious to know how
:r the rail is laid on the Laurens RL R.
rack. Col. Peake will confer a favor
y reporting.
Lt. E. P. Chalmers has quite a flour
hing school.
Jalapa has not been exempt from
, in, and mud is the order there as well
s elsewhere. Consequently farmers
re not doing much.
THE REV. MR. PROBsT and our Ger
aan settlers are improving the oppor
nities in a way which will redound to
heir own good as well as to the good
,f the people generally. We learn
con Mr. Sheck-whose efforts to culti
ate a nmutual good feeling between our
cople and the immigrants deserves
udh commendation-that Mr. Probst
>reachied in German on last Sabbath
n Mt. Bethel Church, and that he will
.gain preach in the same church on the
rd Sabbath in March, on which occa
ion he will organize a German Luth
ran congregation. On the Saturday
>receding a meeting will be held in the
hurch preliminary to the organization,
o both of which the public are invited.
It is to be regretted that an erroneous
pression prevails in Germany among
he class desirous of emigrating, that
south America is the point to which
hse people are invited, and kr. .ving
omewhat of the objectionable character
f that country, there is an indisposition
o try the chances. This report, no
[oubt, is circulated by those who desire
o injure our interests, and the only way
ye see how it can be contradicted and
vercome, is to give those already here
uch encouragement and treatment as
hat they may he induced to frequently
vrite home and showv their friends how
~reat their error.
The Rev. Mr. Probst and Mr. Sheek
re entitled to the highest consideration,
or each in his way is doing a good
ork.
CruntcH CON FER~EN(E.-The first
Juarterly Conference of New berrv Cir.
uit-Methodist-was held at N e w
Jhapel Chlurch, on Saturdayv and Sun
Ia last, the Rev. Mann ing Brown, pre
iding. The pastor in charge, R1ev. T.
i. Herbert. and his coadjutor, L. F.
leatty, and the Rev. R. P. Franks, of
he Station, were present. The meet
ag on Saturday was well attended, and
m the Sabbath very largely, the church
eing crowded to its utmost capacity.
it half-past nino o'clock on Sunday,
here was held a Love Feast of an un
sually serious character. The dis.
ourse which followed, delivered by MIr.
ranks, was earnestly impressive, and
he Sacrament which concluded the ox
~rises was partaken of by a large num
>er. There were also some accessions
unado to the church. We know of nc
etion of country in the range of our
~xerience where the religious element
s so marked, it is a happy people in
ced, knit together by the closest ties.
he recent affliction which this congre
~ation has been called upon to underge
n the death of 3Mr. Isaac Herbert, was
he occasion at this meeting of calling
yut many tender tributes to his memo
-y. His loss to the church and that
'ommunity is a great andl sore one.
WVe append the resolutions adopted at
:he Conference meeting on Saturday
tftenoon as a tribute to his nmemory:
TRtIBUTE OF RESPECT.
WHEREAs, Almighty God, our IIcavenly
'ather Tias in his Providence removed frort
he Church militant to the Church triuma
>hant our venerable and much beloved bro
her, IsAAc HERBERLT, who fot so many
rears has been a faithful and devoted set:.an
f the Church, and as a member of thi:
ody has always, by his goodly counsels
utiring eff'orts. and Christian liberality, le.
an examiple worthy to be imitated.
Resolved, 1bt. That while we depilore thi
!os which the Chut ch has sustained in thi
heath of our esteemed brother, that we re
:ognize the hand of% wise and loving Fathei
o the dispensation, and bow with submissiox
to his will, and render thanks unto him foi
the grace which gave him the victory.
Resolved, 2nd. That we shall ever cherisl
those Christian vir.aes for which our brothe:
was so distinguished, and that a blank pagi
in the register of this Conference be inscribec
to his memory.
Resolved, 3rd. That we tender to the dis
consolate widow and bereaved family of th<
deceased our heart-felt sympathies, and pra'
that the God of all comftort may impart t<
them the consolation which can bc realizet
alone from the grace with which he whion
they now mour~n was sustained in all afflic
tins and by which he in the end ob
tained the complete victory.
Resolved, 4th. That a copy of the preambli
and resolutions be sent to :he widow of th<

To NEW CHAi-i.-Two buggiles left
town on Saturday last, the objective tle
point being New Chapel Church; the otl
first was freighted with the Rev. R. P. da
Franks, and Mr. T. F. Harmon, the
other with the N riter of this notice, a
charming young lady, and a youthful
American of masculine persuasion. It to
was a question of long 3ebate in our Si
ZD for
mind whether it were not better to en
dure the discomfort of the weather and
bad streets at home, rather than fly to
ills which must certainly prove worse so,
in a drive of nine miles, and risk limbs e
:md huggy in ploughing through oceans
of niud. over ridges, ruts and seams.
Not until the last moment was the de- t"0
cision made. fcr we have as lively a he
horror of toiling over bad roads as a cat thn
has of stepping into water.
We started, however, Harmon led,
and such a driver! it seemed to us that
ie tried to o through the narrowest the
plawes and down the sheerest descents, tio
for the simple pleastire of harrowing not
our feelings, and exhibiting his skill.
M 11v
Long before we got to Bush River, or
Werber's Mill, having made several
narrow escapes from sticking. tilting
and smashing, Mr. F. had dubbed our
leader a professor of horse ribbons, but sel
if he was entitled to distinction up to It
that time, his subsequent achievement 0sc
threw the past entirely into the shade,
.car
and we were prepared to crown him agc
with yet higher honors. wh
When weapproachedsightof theriver, uu
the hope of reaching New Chapel sank lie
low. One of those old pains struck us
in the rib, every one knows how sud
denly those pains come on. We felt
sea
like turning tail and trying the same
track back. The river roared and spread per
out in swelling food, the heavy rains of p
Wednesday and Thursay had given it -
on(
a , fording was out of the question,
and of the old bridge, the same worm
eaten, loose-at-both-end timbers and
scattercd planks that have stood there
say
since the war, were all the chance.
Qtuite a number of anxous souls had
preceded us to this point in the morn- at]
ing's history. They knew not what to
do. o,
Just here, however, a second Daniel
comes to judgment; our leader sprang L
from his buaggy, and took in the situa- at:
on hurriedly, over the crazy timbers J
of the remnant of a bridge he went; But
the other side examined lie returned, 31
and cheeringly reported that there was Ch
hope, faint heart ne'er won fair lady, De
Napoleon never would have stoppedl at Jac
an obstruction of this kind, of course we Lot
could cross the raging flood and get to
New Chapel in time for first sermon; if Lc;
not, anyhow in time for the fried chick- Mi,
en, which all of us knew by experience Dci
the New Chapelites h)ad prepared for .
us. How quickly our hopes rose. All
hands were called upon to lend aid, Rut
planks and rails were gathered and Mis
placedl in close relation to each other, Mis
the horses were taken from the buggies 'I
andl with the least bit of trepidation led r
over the yawning abyss of surging wa- dij
ters below. This (lone-all hands again
to the planks andl rails, which this time j
wvere spread for the buggy wheels. Tfheth
conception was quick, briliant, and theth
feat quick of accomp)lishiment, and soon sm~
the joyful party, largely added to by but
those found waiting on the muddy to
banks. were on their way rejoicing. pe
Sure enough we arrived in time, and.
heard the Presiding Elder deliver one b
of his big sermons, andl afterwards the cci
toils. discomforts and fears were all for- rec
gotten in a good dinner. Ah,. it was a shi
goodl one, bountiful, various, (deliciouis.
YWe were glad that the debate of the cx.
morning as to whether we wvould start qui
or not had been decided so favorably. up
We like that section of country; its gen
erous, kind, amiable peop)le; and if we
were a young man we would add a re- fo
tiection or two in regard to the charm- de
ing girls who add so much to the at- ten
tractions of the place; but the world is e
so censorious that we fear what might y
be said. In spite of the consequences,
however, their equals cannot b)e found, thr
an(d. but never mind now, we will keep of
the rest to ourself-.a
And now if vou arc not already
wearied,reader, we will stop before you cal
arc, by saying that the visit to New PG
Chapel was profitable and1 pleasant, and PI
we left under promise to repeat it at gi
some future period, and the next time
to abide under the happy and hospitable
roof of Uncle Mark Boyd, now the old- ha
est father of that country. The ride gr<
home was uneventful, the river was in

a trade of large proportion, much ofL
