T11 NZw PorL LAw.-After the 1st of
January.1875, editors have to prepay all the

Dacsos oF THE CoURTS.-Any person
who takes a paper regularly from the Post
Office-whetber directed to his name or ano

sponsible for tie pay. If a person orders his
paper discontinued he must pay all arrear
ages, or the publisher may continue to send
it until payment is made, and collect the
whole amount, whether it is taken from the
office or not. The Courts have decided that
refusing to take newspapers and periodicals
from the Post Office, or removing and leav
lng them uncalled for, is primafacie evidence
of intestonal fraud. 44-tf.

THE WEATHER AND CROPS.-A con

Saturday afternoon, accompnied with tl
somellightning and thunder, and a blind- m
ing fall of rain. Luckily it was of short de:
duration, On Sunday evening the at- fol
mosphere changed cool, and on Monday il
winter again lapsed into spring. These ast
sudden changes will injure such of the w

that the gentlemen who have kindly thi

power to improve and beautify it, but
it is difficult to accomplish much unless
they have material aid. There is much the
laid out tobe done,and much more which the
ould be done if the necessary means ch:
were *furnished. We appreciate the ele
efforts of these gentlemen, they deserve
credit, and more, and we sincerely trust ch<
that they will ere long be enabled to lan
carry out the plans proposed, and that vit
Rosemont will be made a spot to which
the people of Newberry can look with ' s
affectionate pride. Co

A Bia Pic-Nic.-It has been sug- ace
gested to us to ask for a big pic-nic of the
little folks, in which all the dhildren of
att<
Newberry, from the youngest toddlers bel
up to any all sizes may join and disport-M
themselves on the green, eat fried M
chicken and pound cake, not only to rj
their own delight, but to the gratifica- oml
tion of papas, mammas and friends. ish
The idea is a good one, we like it and ing
will hold to it with a vim which must daj
make it successful. All the children of i
Newberry, just think of it, what a merry Iav~
crew. It will be a study and a picture ble
to see all the hopes of the town to- tia
gether at one time. Let us have a int<
children's meeting, by all means; we edl.
we will contribute several and furnish pas
a basket.
The Newberry HERALD says: "Bo-pe
logna sausage is noonemaemIr
Greenville, the material necess.ary for his
its manufacture having given out lately. am
The proprietors have moved to new and Asi
fresher fields in Charlotte, N. C." Does of
our contemporary really mean to say stri
that the canine clement has disappeared a~ t
from Greenville? If so, we want the the
proprietors of that sausage factory topo
visit Anderson, and render the town an<
supremely happy by similar exhaustion Sin
of "necessary material." pie
[Intelligeneer. Pu]
The remarks of the News led us to
infer that the material had given out, thi
and hence the removal. Our good bro- 40
ther, however, much as he may love
sausage or hate dogs, must not attempt I
to take the inside from Newberry, by rea
holding out inducements to the factory let
men, for we too have a surplus stock got

)READFUL.-In corroboration of the
diction of a couple of May frosts
copy the following found floating
rounds of the press:
A man in Allentown, Pa., possesses

CO HOUSEKEEPE.-With the open
of Spring, housekeepers find that,
ides the wear and tear and smash of
winter, which makes an addition to
ir stock of kitchen and dining room
ttels necessary, there are many arti
peculiar to the season which must be
1, and where to find them readily and
aply is the question. Messrs. Kings
d & Heath solves the problem by in
hng all persons in need of china,
ss, stone, wood, iron and tin ware, to
it their store in Columbia, under the
mbia Hotel. 16-tf
(OT ENOUGH NOTES.-The Laurens
il driver's horn is miserably deficient
t needs a few more keys. It has
'ul complement of middle notes,
as a whole air cannot be blown
hout the higher and lower ones, and
pesists in trying to do so, we sug
t that the horn be withdrawn for'
airs. His tri-weekly attempts to
e us "old Rosin the bow" causes us
lancholy forebodings that he will do
aself damage. It is simply impossi
for him to make more than three
es and $1e are slightly out of tune,
he won't give up. His most rapmti,c
>rt, too, to reach double is made
ile passing the HERALD office, but
ile we appreciate the compliment, we
always on the tip-toe of expectation
t we will have a big local to write
ut the sad end of the Laurens mail

ty of Uncle Joe we advise him to
-e it repaired, he may want to blow
own horn some day.

COME OUT OF THAT HAT.-It was
our fortune to be in Columbia on last
Friday, and, of course, as a representa
tive of the important city of Newbrry,
we tried to make a respectable appear
ance, and imagined that the effort was
entirely successful. How could it be
otherwise, we had on our best store
clothes and most elegant manners. It
was only when we met the other New
berry representative, the one front the
Hardware Store on Mollohon Row. that
there was any misgiving on the subject.
His style was a trifle more striking, and
his get up more elaborate, particularly
in the curl of his moustache and the
twirl of his cane, but fortunately we did
not meet often. With~ that pxception
our progress up Main Street was a sup
cess until reaching the magnificent es
tablishment of Messrs. Kinard & Wiley,
a voice was heard issuing from the por
tal, "come out of that hat !" What hat
ad( who-there was rio one else -about
at the time-was the remark intended
for us? Surely not. Looking in, there
stood Kinard, with long flowing, raven
beard, and Wiley, who affects the pipar,
shave. "Was that remark intended for
us?" On being assured of the fact, we
went in with the intention of getting
satifaption, and got it without any dif
ficulty,for both gentlemen saw that~thsrs
was no use in trying to get. OUt of it.
They apologised and commenced show
ing one of the most elegant stocks of
hats ever seen, and one of the knobbiest
being found to lit our head it was re
quested that it be allowed to remain.
We couMd not refuse-it would have
~pained them. The climax was capped
very pleasantly-nor was this the only
pleasant thing said or done. Taking a
retrospect now without any hard feel
ings to either of tiles gentlemen we
feel that we cannot do less than say that
they have an unusually large stock of
lothing and gentlemen's outfitting gen
erally, of all styles and qualities and at
very reasonable prices. Gentlemen
fisiting the city ave advised to look in
on them and examine their stock..
The G. & C. R. Ri. held its annual
meeting in Columbia last week, and in
consequence, many from the up-cguntry
availed themselves of th1e privilege of
a free ride down to see the sights.
There were only a few happy souls, how
ever. The HERALD contributed to swell
the number, On thep way down there
was the usual variety-the passenger
coach filled with all kinds of people. It
is always thus-there is no place where
so much variety of character can be
found as ir, a full railroad car. On this
occasion there were lively men, with
melancholy counterparts as dull as dish
water. As to the ladies, we will only
say that there were several on board,
and one particularly bright, who knew
thz: she was pretty-how soon they
find it out. We imagined she was
on a trial trip to the city and looked
forard to a heap of fun, and we sin
erely trust her dream was realized.
We would have invested a few nickles
and a heap of time to have contributed
to her happiness, Thore were two Ia
dies with everlasting and huge appetites
-chicken, pie, apples, &c., disappeared
with astonishing rapidity, and to the
annoyance of a hungry insurance agent
in an op)posite seat. We felt sorrj for
hii and for the girls, lest lie should
collapse from emptiness or they should
burst from surfeit. Of course there
were babies on lboard, and some of the
crying kind, and one of the little fellows
was particularly a vocalist, his scream
could be heard~ loud, shrill and clear
over all othor sounds-there were sev
eral on board, and one a lady in mourn
ing, who thought a spanking would
have been highly advantageous. There
was a couple who ate an orange be
tween them, and as it was a very small
one the man took in rind and pulp to
gether. No doubt he thought it was all
right. On the way down, and before
reaching Alston, from the window was
seen two ploughs hitched to one horse,
and the animal not in robust health,
either; a colored man and woman held
to the hand,m and no doubt thought
we embraced the occasion and the ba
bies, paid marke(1 attention to the la
dies, roast turkey and baked pig, and
was sorry when Mr. Land, the Conduc
tor, concluded to start his wagon, Sor
ry, too, that the invitation to remain and
dance a polka with the old lady that
night could not be accepted. We left
bright smiles of ladies and savory odors
-there was no help for it-and with
food for reflection and digestion rolled
on to Columbia.
There were quite a number of visit
ors in the city. They must have all
gone down for fun and not business, for
trade was flat. Meeting a prominent
hotelist, we congratulated him on the
influx of visitors and the good thing the
Railroad meeting threw into his way.
"In a cow's horn," said he, "why do
you know that it is nothing but a crowd
of carpet-baggers who are here with
cold lunches?" We had not thought of
it. But it was so. And in proof, there
weie ten men who rented a roon, for
one dollar, each contributing ten cents
to the fund, and who fed on cold bis
cnits and ham. The hotels of course
did not realize out of them. Whether
it was the same party who went to Mc
Kenzie's saloon and called for a saucer
of cream, and each man drawing his:
own spoon, we know not, nor the same
who called for a drink in a liquor shop
and divided it with six others. This is
narrowing down expenses, certainly,
and an economy altogether new, but
the times are tight and retrenchment is
excusable.
ABOUT THE ToWN AND COUNTY.
The weather is-a finitful topic of
conversation. We have nothing to say
on the subject this week, however.
Very little hope is entertained of the
fruit crop,
But there will be corn made-and
some people will get corned in spite of
the temperance society.
The last chickens from Walhalla were
very fat. Forty cents a piece was high
though,
Jalapa will accept thanks for the in
vitation. It is said the people in the
country generally, think that the editor
of the HERALD is partial to filed chick
en. Let them think.
Our friend with the new wine colored
suit of clothes could not stand the pres
sure. He had to answer so many ques
tions as to where he purchased it and
what was the matter, that he has put
the suit away.
Something about dogs-fleas.
A doughmnestic difficulty-h e a y
bread.
Spring is on hand. Lettuce have
peas.
Another indication that Spring is up
on us is that the sound of the flute is
now heard. Rt is an indication also o,f
ull times, for the dulcet tones come to
s in the day time.
How on earth a woman can keep her
