Special and Local.
THE NEW POSTAL LA.-After the 1st of
January, 1875, editors have to prepay all the
papers from their office. Of course no pub
lisher can afford to pay postage for 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.
DEcISIONs OF THE COURTS.-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 Iis
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 4s taken from the
efice or not. The Courts have decided that
refusing to take newspapers and periodicals
from the Post Office, or removing and leav
ing them uncalled for, is prima facie evidence
of intentional fraud. 44-tf.
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
ministrator's or Executor's Notices for
publication, will save themselves trouble
tv coming prepared to pay for the same

They will also be held responsible for the
publication of all notices in Bankrupt cases.
Transient advertisements of any kind must
be paid for in advance, if the parties adyer
tising do not reside in town.
Job work and subscriptions strictly cash.
All papers shall be stopped hereafter as
soon 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,

NEW CONmACT.-Mr. Billy Franks,
of Laurens, has received the contract
for carrying the mails between New
berry and Laurens, and Tom Atwood,
colored, is the driver. Tom informs us
tha9the old horn has not been turned
over to him, which is a blessing to the
country. As soon as the department at
Washington can get stamps enough a
iiew horn will be furnished.
FIRsT FREIGHT OVERt LAURiENS R. R.
-Thos. F. Harmon, of Newberry, had
the honor of shipping a lot of freight by
Laurens R. R., to J. B. Camipbell, of
Jalapa, on Saturday, the 3d, while Drs.
Clark & Folk, also received freight the
same day at the same place. The first
shipment of cotton down the road was
made on the same day by Dr. Clark.
These are some of the first fruits of the
benefits the people along that line of
road are to realize.
OLD PAPERS.-Old papers for sale at
this office in packages of 50 or 100, at
40Oand 75cents. tf.
THE LAURENS ROAD.-It is a pleas
ure to announce that the work on the
Larens Rail Road is progressing satis
factorily. The track is now laid to
Reeder's Store, or Boston, as it is named
by some, about 9 miles from Newberry,
while the advance workers are close to
Kinard's T. 0. Col. Peake, with his.
efficient lieutenants, among whom are
included his sons and the Messrs. Jas.
and Geo. Meredith, are untiring in their
efforts.
BARBECUES ON THE CAREr.-Capt.
Joe Hunter, of the Charleston House
everybody about here knows where the
location is-proposes soon to give the
barbecue of the season.
The live people round and about Ki
nard's T. 0., intend also giving a tip
top barbecue as soon as Col. Peake gets
his iron horse that far on the road
which it is hoped will be not later than
two weeks from this date. Look out
barbecue goers.
We acknowledge a serenade from
the Laurens hornist. We are glad to
perceive that our frequent notices of
his unequalled performances have mel
lowed his heart-if not his horn-to
give us a farewell salute. We hear
that it is his last trip; that Uncle Sam
hasn't employed Uncle Joe for the next
postal year, and Uncle Joe of course
couldn't employ the tin trumpeteer;
his farewell ditty was soul-stirring.
He started in the C key, as the Profes
sor would say, but his sharps and flats
got dreadfully mixed up before he got
to the finale. Exit the horn.
Fresh lot of Gems, Disciplines and
Hymn Books, just received at the HER
AxD Book Store. 23-tf.
PLAYED OUT.-It is said that hens
can only lay a certain number of eggs
-about 600 we believe. Mr. J. W.
Reagin, of this County, brought us -on
Saturday, five eggs, the largest about
:he size of a pigeon's egg, the smallest
aot larger than a blue bird's, and one
)f the others the shape and size of a
>inder or gouber pea. As the entire
ot were produced by one hen it is
-casonable to suppose that Mr. Reagin
ias received the total number, and that
he hen has cackled for her last lay.
[t is very eggs-traordinary, or as Mr.
7. would say very 'curous.' The speci
nens can be seen for a few days at our
3ook Store.
ATTENTION LADIES.-Shopping is
>ar excellence one of the necessities,
Lnd when the merchant prepares him
elf at every point in excellence, varie
y and price the necessity is made a
>leasure, and none appreciates it more
han the ladies. They delight to go
vhere they are sure to obtain the great
,st satisfaction. The china, crockery,
rlass andgeneral house-furnishing store
>f Messrs. Kingsland & Heath, Colum
>ia, under the Columbia Hotel, is the
>lace where everything of every kind
an be had. Go and see or send or
lers. 23-tf
NEWBERRY AND JALAPA.-We are
inder the direful necessity of mention
ng "Jalapa" again this week. The
Lbbeville Press & Banner wants to
now how far it is from Newberry to
ralapa, and common politeness requires
n answer. Well, from Newberry to
alapa is about-2,000 miles, more or
ess, if you allude to the original Mexi
an Jalapa, whence comes the Jalap
oat which acts so soothingly upon a
itan's stomach; the said Jalapa has just
~een connected by rail with Vera Cruz;
or the benefit, no doubt, of Vera Cnu
ian stomachs. The modern Jalapa,
iowever, is only about 7 miles from
fewherry, the first station on the L.
L.R., and the inhabitants thereof boil no
oats.
MEMIRS OF THE LATE DR. THORN
FEr...-The Rev. N. J. Witherspoon,
vho is canvassing for the above named
nteresting book, paid us a visit on.m
fonday, and we are pleased to say that
luring his brief stay here he ~received
Srespectable number of names. He
ias left his interest in the hands of the
ley. R. A. Fair, T. S. Moarman, Esq.,
Lnd Dr. Pelham, who will receive sub
criptions here. The book will be pub
ished in the Fall, and at the low price
>f $3, and it is sold only by subscrip
ion. These Memoirs of the great and
dfted divine have been 'written by the
ley. B. M. Palmer, paston of the First
?esbyterian Church of New Orleans,
he simple announcement of which is a
ufcient guarantee of what it will be.
WVe commend it to our readers.

Carnelians, and anl other kinds of Stones

facture of Jewelry. They are also ina po
sition to supply country drugs of every
description and in any quantity. Orders
respectfully solicited.
We insert the above advertisement,
aken from a New York exchange, free

WVe had always imagined these sedate
Bahmins to be forever laying in the
svaves of the Ganges and to be buried
n the contemplation of Brahm; and
iow we find them picking up rocks and
gathering yerbs. Just think of a box
>f moss agate to Speck's and a barrel of
Eimalaya boneset to Dr. Fant's, direct
from Abdoolally, payable in Rupees in
;he Bank of Bombay. The ends of the
svorld are coming together.
PERSOAL.-We acknowledge a visit
from Mr. C. P. Pelham, of Columbia,
late the vigorous editor of the Phcenix.
He spent the Sabbath with his sons.
Dr. Dowling, the genial nepresenta
tive of the Factorage house of Wroton
& Dowling, also spent some time in
our midst.
We were glad to see our old friend
and fellow citizen Mr. WV. C. Johnson,
an the street and on his legs once more,
on Sunday last. While he is not able
to run a race, his motion is quite re
pectable. It seemed strange, however,
that he uses a crutch on the off side and
llows the weak leg to bear more than
a share of his weight.
Mr. John 0. Peoples has been pro
moted from bed to a large invalid chair
on rollers, on which he can be wheeled
about at will. It is a pleasure to say
that he is doing well, and that he bears
confinement like a hero. It does one
goad to visit him, so cheerful and pa
tient is he.
WE ARE PASSING AwAY.-The first
sweet flowers of spring time, in all
their beauty, pass quickly from us, and
summer's gentle breezes, as they sweep
through verdant fields, and kiss the
murmuring brook, softly whisper, "we
are passing away." Autumn's wither
ered leaf and golden grain are emblems
fair of human life; they speak in ac
cents plain, "We all do fade!" Then
How To PREPARE AND SERVE CU
CUMBERs.-When we were a little boy
-which happened some time ago-and
when we were laid up with an attack
of cholera morbus, ascribed by the doc
tor to a dose of cucumbers, we remem
ber distinctly a recipe for preparing and
serving cucumbers which the above
named doctor credited to the celebrated
Alexander Von Humbold. No cucum
bers prepared and served as by him
directed can injure the human system.
We have become convinced of it. To
the best of our recollection-and our
memory was fresh and retentive at the
time-the recipe is as follows:
Pluck the cucumbers early in the
morning before sunrise, while the dew
is still upon them. To keep them cool
in all the stages of preparation is a
miatter of main importance. Peel them
is the law directs, which means so as
to leave no vestige of the inner rind
3pon them; put them in salt water
ifter cutting them into thin slices about
in eight of an inch in thickness
n a China dish and place them on
mn airy window sill. Let the slats
)f your Venetian blinds decline at an
mgle of 45 degrees, so that a current
)f air may be created to keep them
)roperly ventilated while they are soak
ng in the brine. Two hours and a
ialf is the normal time of soaking. You
tfterwards wash them for about five
ninutes until all the surface salt is
vashed off clean and nothing but the
nterior saltiness remains. You then
eason with black pepper and vinegar;
tothing but the genuine French, made
>f wine, (garanti purdin), will do.
Cou then pour the best of olive oil-the
>il of Nice is the only fit to use-until
he top layer is well saturated. Now
omes one of the most particular manip
ilations, the mixing of the different in
,redients. It will not do to use a metal
poon or fork, as the action of the acetic
cid upon the steel will impart a metal
ic taste to the salad, which any one but t
tyro in the science will detect. You
nust use a horn spoon and fork; you
aay have seen such, made expressly
br the purpose; a spoon at the end of
he bowl is riveted to a ork at the end i
f the prongs and works by leverage, <
ike a pair of scissors, but crosswise. 1
tfter thus mixing for thirty-five min
ites, you take hold of the dish, walk to
he north side of the house to keep
s cool as you can, and-throw it out of
he window. Nobody that has followed
he above prescription has ever had the
:holera morbus or any other morbus.
BEAR IT IN MIND that transient adver-t
isements must be paid for in advance.
subscriptions the same. Job work,
:ash on delivery.
No accounts are kept in the Book
tore either, and parties wanting books

hope it is.
D. H. KEnmE.-This gentleman, in
whom we are pleased to recognize a
Charleston acquaintance of the good old
days, is located over Cash's Dry Goods
Store and engaged in the very popular
business of making gentleman present
able by well fitting and handsomely
made suits of plothes. That he is an
accomplished cutter is well established,
proofs of which have already been
given here, and if he does not introduce
'fits' in this town then we will give it
up, and say that he is not a fitting man
tor the place. We advise our gentle
man readers to interview Mr. Kemme,
who will be found accommodating and
accomplished, and who will 'cut' with
out giving pain.
A Sorr ANswER.-We might draw
on the imagination and write columns
without being able to give the reader
anything half so beautiful as the fol
lowing. It will touch the heart of hus
band and wife everywhere, and may
perhaps impart a lesson to some one i
almost shipwrecked. A soft answer I
turneth away wrath, and it is like an .
apple of gold in a picture of silver. We i
give it a place in the local:
The husband was of quiek temper, i
and often inconsiderate. They had not s
been married a year, when one day, in i
a fit of hasty wrath, he said to his wife:
'I want no correction from you. If
you are not satisfied with my conduct, c
you can return to your home whence I t
took you and find happiness with your c
kind.' t
'If I leave you,' returned the unhappy :
wife, 'will you give me back that which s
i brought to you?' 1
'Every dollar, I covet not yonr wealth, I
you shall have it all back.'
'Ah!' she answered, 'I mean not the i
wealth of gold. I thought not of dress. r
I mean my maiden heart-my first and f
only love-riy buoyant hopes, and the t
promised blessings of my womanhood. c
Can you give these to me?'
A moment of thought-of convulsion
-and then taking her to his arms:
'No, no, my wife, I can not do that, t
but I will do more; I will keep them v
henceforth unsullied and unpained. I t
cherish your blessings as my own; and t
never again, God helping me, will Ic
forget the pledge I gave at the holy al
tar when you gave your peace and hap
piness to my keeping,'
How true it is that a soft answer
turneth away wrath; and how .many,c
oh, how many of the bitter strifes of
domestic life might be avoided by re
membering and acting in accordancec
therewith.

THE Pic-Nic AT JALAPA.-A few
scores of ladies, gentlemen and un
fledged youth from Newberry andt
Helena, fusing with an equal number
of the fair and gallant of Jalapa, en
joyed a pic-nic season on Saturday last.
It was a question with Newberry and
Helena how the festive.ones from these
places would be able to get to the spot
selected, and but for the good fortune
that Mr. Meredith had to run his freight
down with a load of cotton and back
with bacon and flour, there would have
been not a little disappointment. For-1
tunately the freight came to the rescue
and many souls were made happy with
out interfering with the regular busi-1
ness of the'road, which progressed with
its usual dispatch. Like most affairs of1
this kind there were many out, quite a
variety in size and style of baskets and
trunks of good things, there was a big
and little fiddle also, and as a conse
quence, there was dancing under the
shade of the wide-spreading oak on the
public square, and in Mr. Swedenberg's
house, and young men and maidens
gave evidence by their red faices that
they were happy. There was an iced
lemonade stand, the refreshing fluid
dispensed by W. C. S., and an ice cream
stand furnished by Mr. L. R. M. The
dinner table just before the onslaught
looked charming, it was full, and fairly
groaned. A few moments afterwards,
however, it looked as if a cyclone had
swept it. We never witnessed such dis
patch before. After dinner there wasi
more dancing, lemonade, cream, a live
ly negro row about a missing table
cloth, and then one of those sudden
thunder storms with a deluge of rain,
which would have been pleasanter to
read about than experience. There
was a scamper for shelter, and the box
cars and stores were quickly filled. We
doubt if an hour could have been spent
with greater discomfort than was that
memorable hour in a close box ci,r, with
doors and windows as closely sealed as
a sardine box. After the storm, doors
and windows were opened, and the
dead and dying brought to life and to
town. From what we can learn nearly
all of the party sought bed at sundown,
and thus ended the Newberry-Helena
Jalapa pic-nic.
A CONSOLATION.-In these sweet
piping times of peace and extreme dull
ness there is a restlessness manifested
by active men which is painful to be
hold; they don't know what to get at,
and unfortunately sometimes a man
gets into mischief. There is a general
disposition too to take care of No. 1,
not one man in a hundred puts himself
to any trouble to help his fellow man
wade through the sea of difficulties.
Only occasionally do we see exceptions,
and it affords us pleasure now to point
ot ne of the era caes. Maesrs Per
valor in driving a team of mules with
wagon through the raging flood. He
received a soaking,
While another faithful citizen, and
disciple of Walton, came near being
shipwrecked and murdered by the tor
rent; and
This is not all, for a lady living just
above Helena, who went to visit her
milk bowls and cans, barely escaped
being cut off and drowned by the mad
and merciless flood of water;
In short the rain was very heavy, and
damage was done.
Fifty or seventy-five patent fly-traps
are in constant daily use in this town,
and millions, billions, aye trillions are

Such appreciation of the HERALD is

What between the confused sounds

A Western editor exclaims: "Bos

'shirt bosoms warranted not to rumple,'

air and breath-all these may pass
away in a moment, but the rumpled
shirt bosom remains ever with you as a
present reminder of past joys."

S
It is Not Generally Known
That the shortest possible route between
the South and Great West is through St.
Louis, over the St. Louis, Kansas City and
Northern Short Line. This road has gained
surprising importance by reason of immense
expenditures in the last two years, of over
two million dollars, besides earnings, in im
provements of road-way, in relaying their
line with best quality of new steel and iron
rails, on broad new ties, and substituting
for ordinary cars, new reclining chair coach
es, elegantly carpeted and fitted, with dress
ing rooms with toilet conveniences for la
dies, gentlemen and families traveling with
children, without any extra charge. This
line runs six fast Express trains between the 1
Mississippi and Missouri Rivers, two more
than any other road, and connects with all
the great Land Grant Roads in the West,
and has adopted all modern appliances for
comfort, speed and safeguards against acci
dents,including night and day watchmen,who j
inspect the road before and after the passage t
of each train to see that everything is in or
der. We recommend those contemplating a
trip West to take the St. Louis, Kansas City
and Northern Short Line, it being the only
line running through cars between St. Louis
and Omaha, and for tickets over this excel
ent line we refer our readers to any ticket
igent selling through tickets to the West. For
map, circulars and Time tables address .
:ither J. F. McCarthy, Cincinnati, 0.; or P.
B. Groat, St. Louis, Mo., either of whom
vill furnish any %nformation desired. 4-tf .
