R2EFEESHING.-Capt. Speck is pre
pared to furnish Newberry with ice at
the moderate price of 5 cts. per lb. He
has fitted up a very convenient recepta
cle to store it in. This together with
his delicious ice cream and delectable
soda water, entitles him to rank as the
most popular man in town, provided a
coolness does not grow out of it between
himself and the public. Keep cool
everybody. -____
INFORMATION WANT'~ED.-An almost
unintelligible letter from Jane Walker,
a colored woman living in Noxubee,
Miss., has been handed us for publica
tion. We can only make out of it that
the writer is anxious to ascertainthe
'whereabouts of her relations that she
may go to them. She says that she at
one time belong to Mr. Whit Walker,
is now married and has four children.
Any information addressed to her at
Noxubee, Miss., wlll be gladly received.

THE NEW-POST OFFICE.-Postmaster
Boone has suicceeded by a liberal use of,
paint and the aid of carpenters' skill in
making a very snug. convenient and
pleasant office of the building now used
for the transaction of business between
the people and Uncle Sam. Everything
inside is arranged in apple pie order, a
place for everything and everything in
its place. He is besid-e accommodatsing
and courteous, essential quailities.in a
public servant.
TEPEANcE.-A meeting prelimi
nary to the organization of a Fountain
of the United Order of True Reformers
-was held on Thursday night, the 15th,
in the Hoge School House. The meet
ing was addressed by Messrs. Greene
and Boston. About.twenty names were
subscribed. This new order is under
the auspices of the Grand Lodge of
Good Templar-s, and on this occasion
was addressed explanatorily by District
Deputy, Mr. L. R. Marshall. We wish
the Fountain success.
TO HOUsEKEEPERS.-With the open
ing of Spring, housekeepers find that,
besides the wear and tear and smash of
the winter, which makes an addition to
their stock of kitchen and dining room
chattels necessary, there are many arti
cles peeuliarto the season which must be
had, and where to find them readily and
cheaply is the question. Messrs. Kings
land & Heath solves the prob)lem by in
viting all persons in need of china,
glass, stone, wood, iron and tin ware, to
visit their store in Columbia, under the
Columbia Hotel. 16-tf
SPREADING.-The Columbia papers
make the gratifying announcement that
our good friend, Dr. E. E. Jackson, the
Thmous drug-gist, has removed to a new
LAURENS R. R.-Col. Peake after
short absence on business is again a
his post, or rather on the track. Ho
brought up with him a large invoice c
hands which together with those befor
at work m:kes quite a formidable ani
effective working force. We are gla
to see this, for it looks like business, no
is it strange for the Colonel is a busi
ness man and goes on the principle o
push. A detail from the new importa
tion went out to the camp with enougil
tin cups and tin buckets for feeding pur
poses apparently to supply a regiment
Again we repeat look out for the en
gine when the whistle blows.

AEROLITE.-While standing in his
back porch some time since, a farmer
near Beth Eden Church, saw rapidly
descending from the heavens a bright
star as he supposed. It fell to the
ground apparently back of his garden
enclosure, and for some seconds lie
could see it in the shape of a large burn
ing coal. Supposing it to be a shell
from the enemy's camp, and that it
might burst and do him damage, he re
mained in the back piazza until the
light expired and too late to mark the
spot. It was too bad, he might have
gone and risked one eye on it anyhow.
It was no dor.'>t a meteoric stone from
distant space.
'ERRY & SLAWSOX, wholesale and
retail dealers of Segars, Tobacco, &c.,
above the Columbia Hotel on Main
Street, Columbia, respectfully invite at
tention to their large and choice stock
of goods. Every variety and price ol
Segar can be had at their establishment
from the finest grade down to common,
and at prices which defy competition.
Their determination is to give the ut
most satisfaction in the quality of their
Segars and Tobacco, and at the same
time they do not forg'et to fix prices in
accordance with the times. A visit to
their store will assuredly result in pleas
ure, and an order will meet with prompt
attention. Remember the place, just
below J. C. Dial's Hardware Store, on
Main Street. 16-tf.
THE PRELS IN DANGER.-.The at
tempts to muzzle the press are so fre
quent as to excite grave apprehensions,
but heretofore, fortunately, they have
amounted to nothing. Failures, how
ever, only excite to redoubled efforts,
and when muzzliug will not affect ~the
object, choking is resorted to. The latest
case on record is that of the Messrs.
Swafiield, clothiers of Columbia, vs.
Julian A. Selby of the Phenix. It was
a complete success, too, for with the
assistance of Maj. Beck, salesman,
Selby was effectually choked, the article
used to serve the purpose being a mag
nificent satin cravat, the cost of which,
though, was not regarded at all. Selby
has had the last word, and is out in ai
seven inch local about it.

THE WEATHER.-Sad to record or
Friday we were visited with a touch oj
winter which culminated in killing
frosts on Saturday, Sunday and Mon
(ay mornings, the heaviest andl mosi
killing on Monday. Nearly all tendei
vegetation is killed in gardens,- while
on the plantation much of the early
planted corn is cut down. The conse
quences of this unexpected and sever<
frost are sad to contemphzite. There f
no doubt too that the fruit crop will b<
very short, if it is not entirely killed
Grapes and figs have suffered seriously
Without the frost, the high winds whici
seemed to come from the very frozer
regions, and which prevailed during
the days mentioned, would in them
selves have done serious harm, Th<
visitation is a very serious one.
Since writing the above old fruit
growers say the crop is not badly hurt
Our terms for the year 1875, will b<
cash on delivery of goods, or no trade

HooK AND LADDER COMPAXY.-Al
adjourned meeting of the above Corn
pany was held in Temperance Hall oi
Friday night last, Mr. W. T. Tarrant
chosen at a previous meeting as Presi
dent, in the chair. The object of thi
meeting was a regular organizatioi
with an election for officers. The Con
stitution and By-Lawvs reported by Comn
mittee were read and adopted, and :
Committee appointedl to confer with th
Town Council, with an offer of service
free of charge, provided that body equi
the Company, which offer it is probabi
the Council will accept. The Corn
mittee will report action on this WeC
nesday evening. The officers chose
are:
W. T. Tarrant, President.
T. S. Moorman, 1st Vice President.
T. C. Pool, 2d Vice President.
F. E. Salinas, 1st Director.
0. LA. Schumpert, 2d Director.
II (N. IIarrinerton. :3d Director.
IIEA1m:rnY.-Three thousand dollars
ware paid out by the Treasurer on lasl
Saturday, for public school purposes,
f This is the largest amount ever paik
out at one time in this County for thi
1 item. Teachers, generally, had a gooc
I time.
MISSIONAnY SocIETY MEETING.-ThE
regular monthly meeting of the Asso
4
ciate Peformed Presbyterian Mission
ary Society was held in Thompsor
Street church on Tuesday evening last,
and a very interesting paper from
Dr. Boyce was read by the Rev. E. P.
McClintoek. After, an eloquent ad
dress was delivered by M. A. Carlisle,
Esq. It is a regret that the audience
was small, from the fact that no public
notice was given of the meeting. Had
it been generally known, there would
have been a larger turn out, and a much
wider pleasure experienced in hearing
an address so full of thought as was de
livered on that occasion. There were
five members added to the Society.
The next meeting will be held on the
second Tuesday in May, and Ira B.
Jones, Esq., will make an address. The
Rev. T. G. Herbert, of the Methodist
circuit, was chosen to address the So
ciety at its June meeting.
TO THE AFFLICTED.
I am prepared to treat Fistula, Piles,
Ulcers, Fissure, Stricture, Prolapsus,
Polypus, and all other diseases of the
Rectum. P. B. RUFF, M. D.
Mar. 10, 1875-10-3m.
We pronounced against the fashion
adopted by the ladies in hats, but
whether ary good came of it we never
have heard, except that one good lady
said, well done, I like your taste. Now,
We cry out against the coming revolu
tion in skrimping the skirt. Why the
present fashionable skirt is the ugliest
thing on some ladies we have ever
seen. The dear creatures may as well
get into a narrow corn sack at once.
If the object is to show the female form
divine then it is all right, but if for ease,
or comfort, or elegance, then it is a
lamentable failure. They might as
well squeeze themselves into one leg of
a pair of pantaloons and tuck up the
surplus leg into furbelows for ornamen
tation on the back. Something is wrong
evidently. We go in for flowing, easy,
loose petticoats in preference to the
little, narrow-drawn skirts now so com
monly worn. If this thing is continued
there iill no longer be any angels in
petticoats.
THE T RE A SUR ER'S BOOKS.-The
County Treasurer, Capt. Jesse'C. Smith,
courteously allowed us an insight into
his books quite recently, and it affords
us satisfaction to say that they are kept
with exceeding accuracy, every account,
State and County, being separate and
distinct, atnd so plain that at a glance
each receipt and disbursement can be at
once seen. We are pleased to make
this mention as we are satisfied that
this officer is entitled to praise for the
manner in which he has conducted all
the complex duties of his office, and
however much the tax may be consid
ered a burden, still no word of complaint
can be made of any of his official deal
ings with the people. We find that the
total amount of State and County tax
paid in up to his last report to the
Comptroller-General is $77,402.96, and
that notwithstanding the heavy drafts
made on the amount received for coun
ty purposes that there is a snug sum
still on.hand. Among the items paid
out of this fund recently, we notice
that the Jury expense of last court
footed up the enormous sum of $642.60.
This amount is largely in excess of
previous expenses for same purposes,
we believe. We notice, too, that school
claims are paid up promptly and regu
larly, as they shoul be, and that teach
ers have no reason to complain.
The amounts received by some of them
are amply sufficient for the labor per
formed.
ARnEsT OF TWO OF THE GANG.
Capt. Greer, of -the Greenville police,
witlr the assistance of our efficient chief,
J. HL Gaillard, succeeded on Friday
last, in this town, in arresting Edward
Watson and Walter Jackson, members
of the gang who have been for many
months committing thefts and murder
in Greenville and elsewhere. Capt.
Greer, on the strength of the confession
made by Aif. Walker, had -been in
search of these men for some days, but
had no idea that they were in Newber
ry, until informed of the suspicions en
tertained of these two men. As soon
as they were described, he became son
vinced they were the birds, and they
were arrested, the one, Watson, in a
store where he had just bought powder
and buck shot, and the other, Jackson,
in the office of Messrs. Pope, Pope &
Fair, where he had gone to condone
with his confederate, innocently dream
ing that he was not known or suspected,
Jackson is said to be the p)rincipal of
the gang, and the worst character in it.
- They are both now lodged in jail.
SAfter a preliminary hearing before
,Judge Moses, on the question of admit
-ting to bail, it was decided to postpone
Sthe case until Saturday next. In the
meantime the Sheriff has guaranteed tc
- keep the rascals safe. It is the general
-opinion that they should have been al
Sonce turned over toeCapt. Greer, and1
we coincide in this opinion. That they
are of the~ gang and are guilty there is
)very liidle doubt, and the fact of the pur
a chase of back shot of the largest size, ih
- proof enough that they were up to some
- wrong then, even if they had not before
.1 been engaged in it. We trust no ob
struction will be placed in the way ol
their removal to Greenville, where thiey
by every reason of law and right now~
belong, and that they may speedily
meet with the deserts which their crimes
entitle them to. Newberry has no use
for them, nor any right to hold them
ABOUT THE TOWN AND COUNTY.
The weather since last report ha.
been on its ugliest behavior.
High cold winds commenced on
Thursday-frost every morning since.
Vegetation not killed is much debilita
ted.
We trust that Aunt Betsy's prediction
in regard to frost in May was a mistake
-and that April was the month, for we
have had enough for the present.
There is now a great run on garden
seed.
Harmon and others have ordered
more planting potatoes.
The garden pea dispute has been ami
cably adjusted-Jack Frost settled it.
The remedy in this case, however, is
wdrse than the disease. We stick to
previous assertion.
Tumblers, plates, soup tureens, bon
nets, old carpets, boards, boxes, skirts,
stockings and every other convenient
as well as inconvenient thing, was
brought into requisition to protect beans
and cucumbers from frost (luring the
recent visitation, but with limited suc
cess.
The appearance of overcoats on Fri
day, elicited the exclamation, "get out
of them, it's cotton planting time." The
men who raised the cry in the morning
were glad to use wraps before night.
In consequence of the cold snap,
Speck's soda water was not in great
demand last week, and so great the
demoralization he was afraid to offer
the public any ice cream.
There are twenty-one lawyers in the
city of Newberry. Let us pray.
Eggs from the White Leghorn chick
ens have been introduced here. They
are now in process of incubation. The
hens of this breed never set, neither do
the roosters, but they are everlasting
layers, that is, the hens, not the cocks.
A prominent citizen has determined
to raise sparrows-his leisure moments
are devoted to their culture.
A cross-eyed man with knock knees
and a weak back, who cannot "run
with the machine," calls the new or
ganization a "hooking ladder compa
ny."
Another coop of chickens have been
gabbled up on the one man principle.
This is foul play.
Speck proposes to supply Newberry
with ice this Summer, either in large or
small quantities, at 5 cts. per lb. A
clever thing in Speck.
Terms cash at this office for subscrip
tion, advertising and job work. The
same rule in force at the book store
books and stationery cash.
A crazy man was found loose on the
street the other night and properly
cared for. Lock up your doors at sun
down. There are prowlers of all char
acters afloat in the city.
The spelling fever has not reached
Newberry, for which we return sincere
thanks. The weather has been spell
enough for any reasonable people.
Mr. W. D. McCrimmon has been
running a flying trapeze institution back
of Pool's Stable for some days.
Messrs. McFall & Pool make some
important local announcements this
week, to which attention is directed.
Gentlemen, have you fitted yourselves
to a Spring suit of clothes yet. If not,
our advice is that you proceed at once
to Wright & Coppock's and fit your
selves out in a neat and seasonable style.
Their stock is very complete.
At the store of Messrs. P. W. & R.
S. Chick, can be found a full line of
Spring fabrics in Dry Goods, Fancy
Goods, &c. In addition to which these
gentlemen have on hand everything
needed for the farm and plantation.
"Squibs" has given us a legend of the
"Blandusian Spring," and we will give
it a place in the HERtALD shortly.
The man with a beam of formidable
dimensions in his eye is advised to take
it out. Why need he trouble about
small motes in the eyes of others.
Business was right sharp brisk during
a portion of last week.
Many of our farmers have done the
right thing by planting largely of corn.
They will reap their reward.
The uncommon activity of the farmers
of this County will account for the
scarcity of marriages. No one gets
married now. Wake up young folks,
the merry month of May is a nice time.
The editor has several invitations to
indulge on fried chickens, also to go
fishing. Hie returns grateful thanks
and wvill endeavor to be agreeable.
Did you see the tin covered man on
Wednesday--he belonged to Col. Peake's
force, and had been to Blease's tin fac
tory for cups and buckets. He had a
pile. We wish the Col. had to furnish
newspapers and stationery in same quan
tity, and had to purchase at this office.
The two individuals who are trying
to get the editor of this paper into a
vegetable difficulty had best keep quiet.
lie is one of the pleasantest and po
litest gentlemen, and when he comes
to the HERALD office he brings a streak
of sunshine into-it.
The suburbs of Baltimore Corner are
being improved-Mr. Wicker's new
store is going up rapidly.
The barber shop has a new awning
frame, which will soon be covered, and
the operation of shaving will be per
formed under pleasant circumstances.
Speck has one of the nicest, coolest
ornaments in his Ice Cream Saloon
ever seen in Newberry, in the shape of
a fountain.
A highly respected citizen objects to
any one calling our town Newberry
Court House. He is right. We are a
city.
The first May party reported to this
office is fixed for the fourth of that
charming mionth.
Have your job printing done at this
office. Satisfaction guaranteed, either
as regards time, style or price. Try it.

Talk about the poetry of motion an<
sylph-like grace, but did you ever stan<
by and see a woman use a one-tine<
fork to flop a stove cover off ?"
"Don't call on me for three days," i
what an Ashland girl posted on tho
front gate, and she further added: "Un
going to eat some onions this week if ]
never have another beau."
It is related of a certain minister, wh<
was noted for his long sermons witl
many divisions, that one day, when h(
was advancing among his teens, h(
reached at length a kind of resting
place in his discourse, when, pausinc
to take breath, he asked the question
"And what shall I say more ?" A voicf
from the congregation earnestly re
sponded, "Say, 'Amen!"
"Have you any eggs?" inquired a
peaceful looking old man as he leaned
over the counter of a hardwure store
recently. "No sir,-this is a hardware
store; we keep nails, stoves, etc." an
swered the clerk. "Well, I did want
some eggs," slowly drawled the old
man, "but I hain't particular, and you
may give me a pound of nails."
A woman called into- a commission
house in Detroit the other day, and
made for the rear end of the store with
out waiting to speak to any-one. The
proprietor followed her and inquired,
"Did you wish to look at some butter,
madam ?" "No, sir," she curtly re
plied. "Want some eggs?" he contin
ued. "No, sir." "Praps you'd like
some of these dried peaches?" "No,
sir." There was a painful pause, but
she braced her nerves and said, "There's
something w-wrong with-with my
skirts, and-and if y4o a will-"
"Thunder, what a fool I am!" exclaim
ed the man, and got into his office and
left her in peace.
"Mother wants to know if you won't
please to lend her your preserving ket
tle-'cause as how she wants to pre
serve?" -We would with pleasure, bo,
but the fact is, the last time we lent it
to your mother she preserved it so ef
fectually that we have never seen it
since." "Well, you needn't be so sassy
about your 6': kettle, mother' wouldn't
have troubled you agin, only we seed
you have a new one."
Can crooked things be made straight?
Yes; a new process has just been dis
covered. Recently a paper said that Miss
M. Krucked was married to Mr. W.
Strait. That certainly is straightening
crooked things.
Yesterday was indeed an eventful
day in the life of a lady on west Jack
son street. During a trip on the street
cars to State street and back, she saw
the loveliest polonaise pattern she ever
saw in her life, the handsomest fellow
she ever saw in her life, the homeliest
woman she ever saw in her life, got the
worst fright she ever had in her life
from the drunkest man she ever saw in
her life, never was so insulted in her life
as she was by a young man who spoke
to her on the car, and finally got home
feeling more tired than she ever felt in
her life.
A FATAL RENCONTRE IN EDGE
FIELD.-W,e learn that a fatal shoot
ing affray occ-urred at Edgefleld Court
House, yesterday, at 12 o'clock, result
ing in the death -of Mr. Marshall
Glover, and the slight wounding of
the two Stevenson brothers. It appears
that the Stevensons were tenants of
Glover, and all parties had repaired to
the town for a settlement. Words
arose, and, as we are informed, Glover
was shot down; while on the ground,
he used his pistol on the brothers,
wounding them both slightly. The
firing was returned,, and he received
his death wound after being so severe
ly wounded that he could not rise.
Altogether there were about fifteen
shots fired. The Stevensons attempted
to escape, buL were arrested and lodged
in jail. There is much excitement.
