Special and Local.
THE Naw PoST kL LAw.-After the 1st of
January, 1875, editors have to prepay all the
papers from their office. Of course no pub
isher can afford to pay postagefor a subscri
ber in arrears. We give this timely notice
to all delinquents that we will not let their
names encumber our books after that period.
DxcIsio.i oF TE CouzTs.-Any person
who takes a paper regularly from the Post
Office-whether directed to his name or ano
ther, or whether he subscribed or not-is re
sponsible for the 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
offlce or not. The-Courts have decided that
refusing to take newspapers and periodicals
from the Post Office, or removing and leav
ing them uncalled foi, is prima facie evidence
of Intentional fraud. 44-tf.
Communications on subjects of interest to
the public are always acceptable. The names
of writers, remember, must always aceompa
ny a letter to insure its publicaticn. No re
sponsibility is assumed for any other views
than our own.
All single or transient business notices in
the local department are inserted at the rate
of fifteen cents per line-liberal contracts
made for three. six or twelve months. tf.
( TAKE NOTICE.-All parties having Ad
minisatrater's or Executor's Notices for
publication, will save themselves trouble
by coming prepared to pay for the same
before insertion, as our terms are cash.
Lawyers handing in such notices will be
held responsible for the payment.
9-t.
They will also be held responsible for the
publication of all notices in Bankrupt cases.
Transit advertisements of any kind must
be paid for in advance, if the parties adver
tising do not reside in town.
Job work and subscriptions strictly cash.
All papers shall be stopped hereafter as
Won as the term of subscription expires, un
less satisfactory arrangements are made to
continue the same.
The X mark denotes expiration-after that
the paper is discontinued.
Bear these things in mind. 3-tf,

COTrON STAK.-The largest cotton
stalk so far brought in for exhibition is
from the plantation of Mr. Orlando
Dickert, and is about 15 inches high,
-with a.number of shapes. Mr. D)ickert
lives in the Stone Hills, and the size of
the stalk is therefore remarkable.
.CHEROKEE SPRINGS.-We are pleased
to notice that the proprietor of this de
lightful watering place has completed1
his arrangements, and that his house is
.niow open for the reception of guests.
SThe climate of Cherokee is unsurpassed
and the water a fine tonic. Mr. Black,
too, has a'deserved reputation as a host.
.MUnsIo.-We are pleased to state
that Col. Peake will afford such of the
citizens of Newberry as desire it with
an excursion to Jalapa, on some after
noon of the next week, and that due

WALTHALLA COLLEGE.-From a copy
of the Catalogue of Newberry College,
Walhalla, we glean that there are one
hundred and one students under course
of instruction. In the Collegiate De
partment 31, and in the Preparatory

all of the friends of the institution, that
it is in a flourishing and prosperous con
dition. Commencement takes place on
the 24th inst.
LUTHERANi SYxN.-We learn that
at the Newberry Conference of the
Evangelical Lutheran Synod of South
Carolina, which met on Friday, 28th of
May, at St. John's Chureh, in Lexing
ton County, near Pomaria, eleven min
isters an~d seventeen delegates were in
attendance, and that the attendance of
the people of the neighborhood was
very good. The next Conference will;
be held at St. John's Church, Calk's
road, Lexington, Friday, 27th August.
KrTroxANri.-The dressing room
of our respected townsman, Dr. 0. B.
Mayer, was entered on Tuesday eve
ning last, and an entire suit of new
clothes, which he had but a short while
before taken off, carried away by some
adroit thief. Some other articles of
clothing were also taken.
We learn that several other houses
have been entered; among the number
those of Maj. W. F. Nance anid Mr.
Thos. F. Harmon. Keep a good look
out for the rogues.
GOOD HUNTING GROUND.-We were
reminded on Wednesday of the anec
dote related of the man who inquired if
a certain locality was good hunting
-ground, and who, on being told that it
was, hunted diligently, but without suc
cess. Further information revealed the
Pic Nics.-On the 12t1 inst., at Mr.

dence of Mr. Cal. Suber, near Kinard's. att
His disease was typhoid fever. The by

To BE AVOIDED.-Every properly and
balanced man or woman has a lively bei
horror of the promising man. He is few
.lways putting somebody out by his
Failure to keep his promises. If he
ays he will be at a certain place at a mcl
given time, or will have a piece of work of t
lone, or will pay that little debt, the agr
.bances are ninety-nine to a hundred tha

,ellow. Young man, just starting out one
in life, avoid such a pernicious exam- eac
ple. Better i hundred times say no, the
you cannot or will not. No one will the

GOOD ADVICE.-An old bachelor was the
>erheard the other day advising a var
1riend who had not experienced as is a
nany years of single misery as himself wil
:o marry. "As you value your life," be :
iaid he, "marry at once-delay is dan- as r
rerous-true happiness can come only be I
hrough a wife and a house full of chil- the
Iren." Our friend knows, he has weath- sod
,red the storms of life alone, and tho1*h be i
ie presents an apparent content, and a
ort of rollicking devil-may-care, yet
t is not well with him. A wife, a wife, bee
ny kingdom for a wife, is his cry. We of

nake another and better effort to supply req
hie wants of the people of Newberry. and
EIe has made such arrangements as will a y
nsure a regular and good quality of cop

HO0GE SCHoo..-The celebration of ~
he Hoge School, in the Court House, ~
>n Tuesday evening, was very credit
ble, not only to the pupils but to the ide:
principal, E. E. Green. The programmeth
of entertainment, necessarily lengthy inhe
by reason of the large number of pupils, for
was so varied by dialogue, speech and
poem, and interspersed with vocal and sta
instrumental music, that the time occu--el
pied did not seem long. We werees
nuch pleased, and especially with the I
ocal efforts. The organ was mamupu- fo
ated with much spirit and decided mu
ical ability by Representative J. D. cal
Boston. After the exhibition by the d
pupils the audience was addressed by
Eon, J. K. Jillson, State Superintend- ulP
mnt of Education, and W. H. Thomas. m
he Hoge School is in a good condition. tak
GIVE THEM A CHANCE.-We notice hia
hat in other cities and town, merchants in
generally have agreed to close their gi
stores at such hours in the afternoon as for
will give a needful rest and recreation not
to their tired clerks. It is right, too; of
the days are long, business is dull and an3
it is harder to drag out a long summer's
day in idleness than if there were plenty '
to do. They are completely fagged out -a h
by night, and an hour or two given fre
them for recreation, before darkness us
closes the scene, would greatly benefit Sat
them and be no loss to the employer. Ta:
We throw out the suggestion in behalf the
of the hard working,' long standing, the
tired clerks, and trust that our generous Pe
and considerate merchants will agree r
to close their stores at such an hour in
the afternoon as will give them a chance diti
to breathe a little fresh air. co

r this immediate section was broken by a
very slight but refreshing shower on
Wednesday night. A light one on Sat
urday night, a better one on Sunday
t night, and a still better one on Monday
. afternoon.
Everybody and the other man turned
3 out on Monday with hoes, rakes, spades
. and picks-it had rained. The excite
, ment did not last long, for it was found
j that the ground was still dry, most of
. the shower had found its way to Scott's
s creek. We allude to the morning. No
a discount on the afternoon's rain.
iA lady friend expresses a doubt as to
. our seeing many or any of the corn
i fields we have lately noticed. She says
.. they are few and far between. For.
.merly it was corn fields and cotton
Spatches, now, alas, it is cotton fields
and corn patches. True as preaching,

the fence.
NEWsPAPER ADVERISNG.-News
paper advertising is now recognized,
by busines men having faith in their
Newspaper advertising is the most
r energetic and vigilant of salesmen; ad
dressing thousands each day, always in
the advertiser's interest, and ceaselessly
at work seeking customers from all
classes.
Newspaper advertising promote s
trade, for even in the dullest time ad
vertisers secure by far the largest share
of what is being done.
r While the advertiser eats and sleeps,
> printers, steam engines and printing
presses are at work for him, trains bear
ing his words to thousands of towns,
and hundreds of thousands of readers,
'all glancing with more or less interest
at the messages prepared for them in
tho solitude of his office. No preacher
ever spoke to so large an audience, or
with so little effort, or so eloquently, as
you may do with the newspaper man's
assistance.
Catalogues of the Books published by
the Methodist Book House, at Nash
ville, can be seen at the HERALD Bbok
Store, and any selection made there
from will be ordered with promptness.
Orders respectfully solicited at the

FuNNY-GRAPHS.
At a recent wedding in Ohio, the
minister was about to salute the bride,
when she stayed him with:, "No, mis
ter, I give up them vanities now!"
A Parthian Shaft.-Cook-"Now, I'm
leavin' of yer, m'um, I may as well tell
yer as the key of the kitchen door fits
your storeroom!"
It was a pretty conceit of a father
whose name was Rose, and who named
his daughter "Wild." But the romance
of the thing was badly spoiled when
she grew up and married a man by the
name of Bull.
"Lord, make us truly thankful of
what we are about to receive-these
biscuits ain't fitten for a dog to eat," is
the way a certain Monroe (La.) man
asks a blessing.
"I say, Pat, what are you about
sweeping out the room?" "No," an.
swers Pat, "I am sweeping out the dirt
and leaving the room."
"Stay," he said, .with his right arm
around her waist, and her face expect
antly turned to him, "shall it be the
kiss pathetic, sympathetic, graphic,
oriental, intellectual, paroxysmal, quick
and dismal, slow and unctious, long
and tedious, devotional, or what?" She
said perhaps that would be the better
way.
IT Is TRULY WONDERFUL, the variety
and ingenuity of the conveniences for the
desk and office-Pens of various patterns,
Inkstands possessing numberless advantages,
Letter Files, each one the best, Envelopes of
size and qualities infinite. It is almost be
wildering to cuter the large Broad Street
Store of Walker, Evans & Cogswell, in
Charleston, and see the number of these
attractions. Here you find the largest Sta
tionery Stock south of Baltimore, and you
only have two troubles-first, sufficient cash;
and second, the difficulty in deciding among
the many things offered, eaclh equally suita
ble to your wants, May 12, 19-tf.
