A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE. rhe Herall is in the highest respect a Fam e ily Newspaper. devoted to the imaterial in ter ,sts of the people of this County and the State. It circulates exte2sively. and as an Advertising medium otfers unrivalled ad vantages. For Terms, see first page. The State Tax Union. It is announced by Gen. Chesnut, Presideat of the State Tax Union, that this body will assemble in Colum bia on Tuesday, the 23rd of November, at 12 o'clock M. Messrs. WIm. Ray, J. N. Lipscomb and E. S. Keitt are the delegates elected from this county, and as a punctual attendance is neces sary, it is presumed that these gentle men .or their alternites will attend promptly to time. The Anderson Itelligencer is cor rect in the presumption that the dele gates of last year still retain their position, we believe that being the understanding. Cotton. Under this popular caption a corres pondent in the Greenville Daily News gives some timely and sensible advice to the eotton planters of the country: and first that it is hard to sell cotton at 11Z or even 121 cedts, but there is no telling whea the price will be higher, and as futures are low and cannot be depended upon, it will not pay to hold until spring or summer, for accidents may happen. When sold, the farmer either has the money or has paid his debts with it, -and his mind is at rest. The merchant, black smith, mechanic, doctor, who have sold to you, worked for you and waited on you, want their money, and if all these claims are paid, the year can be commenced clear of debt. By being thus punctual, your credit is establish ed, and if help is needed you will more readily get it. All this considered, it is best to sell as soon as ready, and settle up. Every word of this is true; and another fact equally so, is that the neglect to raise breadstuffs and grasses has tended to lower the price - of cotton, and it will continue to de cline with the increase in planting. There can be no better time than right now for our farmers to deliberate on this subject, turn it over and over, weigh it well, count all the cost, and resolve not to follow the suicidal policy of the past. The prospect now is bad enough, but it will be worse next year if the same old course ~is pursued. Think of it, farmers, and determine like sensible men to pay attention to those other interests of the farm, many of them so small as to be despised, and get out of the troubles which now environ you and injures all classes of industry.. The State Fair. The Fair just closed is not consid ered as successful as in former years, the attendance being rather limited. The exhibition, however, is said to have been good, and in some respects mnuch better than the average. A reference to the premium list shows that Abbeville had a larger represen tation than any other cou,nty outside of Richland. It is to be regretted that a more general interest was not taken on this occasion, but there is sufficient excuse in the stringent times, our people not having the means at command to mnake a respectable ap pearance. By the time the next meet ing takes place we trust that the situa tion may be~ more favorable. We are pleased to notice in the pre mium list, the names of Wm Summer, of,P'omaria, who was awarded four pre l?iumns; and from this county, M. M. ]Buford, three prizes, and three honor able mentions for horses and colts; J. Cruimer, one prize; J. HI. Willingham, one prize ; Win. Smith, one prize and favorahie mention ; W. A. Fallow, favorable mention; Smith & Cromer, favorable mention; and H. T. P'eake, two prizes on grade cows and calves. A private letter received since the above was put in type from a visitor to and well-wisher of the Fair, says that the exhibition of stock, with the exception of horses, was better than during the past two years. The at tendauce, though, whether from lack of interest or want of money, was small, and only eleven gentlemen from Newberry were noticed by this corres pondent as present. Wednesday, usual ly the big day, netted only $85 at the gate, instead of $1,200 to $1,000 as on formner occasions. On Thursday the receipts were $600. The Columbia chat is that the Fair has reached its lowest ebb, and that the next meeting will be a grand success. But to secure this desirable end every man who fels an interest in it should exert himself a.ruuuary We trust the anticipa tiou may be realized, and that the State Fair may henceforth be a suc cess and not a failure. We add the hope that the officers may put forth proper efforts to this end. The following officers have been elected: Thomas Taylor, Richland, president; J. W. Watts, Laurens, first vice-president; J. N. Huffman, Lex ington, second vice-president; R. To zer, Columbia, third vice-president; J. 31. Eason, Charleston, fourth vice president ; B. F. Crayton, Anderson, fifth vice-president; Thomas W. Hollo way, Newberry, secretary. Executive comnimittee-G. McD. Miller, Abbe ville; John B. Adger, Jr., Pendleton; WI. Wallace, Columbia; W. G. [Hia son, Charleston; J. K. Davis, Fair field; James McCutchen, Williams burg; J. W. Harrington, Chesterfield. The Outlook. The Richmond W/dg philosophizes cheerily as follows : "The political ou#look is far from being as fair and as bright as it has been, but if we had been triumphant this fall as we were last fall it might have led to indiscretions to defeat us next fall. And, take it all in all, we do. not know but it is best we should be beaten now to achieve a victory then." The Charleston 1News and Courier says: "There are bright spots in the gloomy picture of Tuesday's elections. The Conservatives, working in har monv with the colored people, have elect~ed their entire ticket in Missis siDpi, and the anti-Tammany Demo crats. in co-operation with the Repub licans, have routed the insolent and corrupt Tammany Hall clique in New York City. These are gains worth counting." Recent Arctic Explorations. The Pandora, a small screw steamer which left England for the arctic re gions in search of relics of the ill-fated Franklin expedition, recently returned to Portsmouth after a brief but event ful voyage of three months duration. Following Sir John Franklin's track, the vessel, after leaving Upernavik, steamed to the westward and penetra ted further in that direction than any other ship has yet succeeded in doing. A yacht, abandoned by Sir James Ross, was found beached and in fair condition; and the storehouse built by the same explorer, together with the graves of some of Franklin's men, were visited. The Pandora brings back the news that the Alert and Dis covery, of the British expedition, are now in Smith's -Sound, and that there are indications that that body of wa ter is comparatively free from ice. The ease with which the Pandora, small as she is, accomplished so long a journey-dne whioh Franklin, with his sailing ships, occupied two years in performing-in the brief period above mentioned, augurs*well for the success of Capt. Nares.. The , acy of steam is fully shown ; and -the Polaris hardly merited the designation of a steamer, the Pandora is really the first to prove what even moderately powerful engines will do toward break ing through the ice floes. With the channel as open as is reported, and driven on by their strong machinery, it is not impossible to believe that the Alert and Discovery have already at tained the borders of the open polar sea.-ScientQfic American. Dr. Smith the distinguished scien tist and chairman of the sanitary committee of the City of New York, in his report on diptheria, makes the following interesting remarks: "Seasons-Diptheria is not affect ed by either heat or cold, drought or rain. And, I may add, 'it has all seasons for its own.' "Social Relations-All classes are liable to diptheria when it is prevail ing, but those suffer most severely who live on low wet ground; in houses with imperfect drains or surrounded by offensive matters, as privies, decay ing.~ animal or vegetable refuse; in damp rooms, as cellars; in over-crowded and ill ventilated apartments: "Precautions-The dwelling or apartment-Cleanliness in and around the dwelling, and pure air in living and sleeping rooms are of the utmost importance whenever any contagious or infectious disease is prevailing, as cleanliness tends both to prevent and mitigate it. Every kind and source of filth around and in the house should be thoroughly removed; cellars and foul areas should be cleaned anid dis infected; drains should be put in per fet repair, dirty wells and ceilings should be lime-washed, and every oc upied room should be thoroughly ventilated. Apartments which have been occupied by persons siek with diptheria should be cleansed with dis infectants, ceilings lime-washed and wood-work painted; the carpets, bed clothes, upholstered furniture, &c., exposed many days to fresh air and the sunlight. All articles which may be boiled or subjected to high degrees of heat should thus be disinfected. Such rooms should be exposed to cur rents of fresh air for at least one week before reoccupatiou. No other infec tious malady more imperatively de mands the best resources of medical and sanitary knowledge to limit its prevalence and save life. Sanitary precautions have supreme importance in this disease." Its specific cause is not satisfactorily ascertained or determined. The time, I hope, is not far distamnt when dip theria will cease to be the opprobria ii~edicorum of the profession. Editorial Review. The Associate Reformed Presbyte rian proposes the celebration of the semi-centennary of the Theological Seminary at Due West, in July next, about the time of the annual Coi mencements. The idea is a good one and should be carried out by all means, as appropriate to the general sentiment and time. At a meeting of the South Carolina Club, held in Colnmbia on Wednesday last, the following officers were elected: Geo. Johnstone, President, and J. T. Sloau, Jr., R1. C. Watts, R. Means Davis, Alfred Aldrich and Eugene B. Gary, Vice-Presidets; W. C. Fisher, Secretary, and Wylie Jones, Treasu rer. A destructive fire occurred in Char leston on last Saturday night, by which the lace store of Messrs. Read & Co., was destroyed-value of stock, $50,000, insured for $40,000. Other losses to parties occupying building, together with damage to house, $50, 000 more, on which was insurance to amount of $18,000. A negro man was run over and killed by a fire en gine. We see it unfortunately announced that the Beecher scandal is about to be revived. His brethren of the cloth are not altogether satisfied as to his immaculateness, and propose an inves tigation and thopough sifting of the whole affair, that they may judge whether he is just the kind of man for them to associate with. There is not a shadow of doubt that the inves tigation will reveal the truth and show him to be the guilty man that he is. It is certain that he does not fill the same exalted position in the religious or secular world that he did before his trial. It is but right that his true character should be revealed, but it is to be deplored that the sickening af fair is to be brought before the people again; better, perhaps, for the sake of society that he be left alone until his "sin find him out" naturally. The recent elections, so far as heard from, give the following result: New York-Senate, Republican 22, Democrat 10; Assembly, Republican 76, Democrat 53, Independent 1. Kansas-from 76 districts-39 Re publicans and 37 Opposition, Demo rat, Independent and Reform. Maryland-Demo~cratic governor ; House 58 Democrats 'to 26 Republi cans; Senate 20 Democrats to 6 Re publicans. Virginia-Favorable to Democrats. Mississippi-Results glorious, in nearly every county the entire Demo cratie ticket has been elected.; 30 ma jority in the House.and 6 or 8 in the Senate. Massachusetts-Re~publican ticket elected by majority of 20,000. Re publicans have 172 representatives, Democrats 57. Minnesota--Republican, with a two thirds legislature. Pennsylvania-Republican gover nor, 12,000 majority. New Jersey-Republican gain of 34; majority on joint ballot 17. Wisconsn-Republican majority of about 5,000. Hats and Bonnets. The ladies will be glad to learn that after long weeks of alterations and consultations the bonnet question is happily settled, and douhts and hesi tation are-at an end. Three different shapes will be the most sought, and so economical is fashion that last.year's felt shapes are easily remodeled and retrin>med at very little cost. The picturesque and artistic Rembrandt is revived in felt, and the soft broad fur brim has an upward turn at the left side. The trimming is a scarf of soft silk, ostrich plumes, an antique orna ment of filigree or chased silver, and low at the back a cluster of shaded crimson roses. This hat should be black. The Montagnard hats have stately high crowns, nearly covered with fluffy feather ruches and noddirg ostrich tips, forming an elegant and striking appearance. The familiar roundtopped Derby is also revived; notwithstanding its extreme simplicity it is not inharmonious in its aspect. There are beside toques of old-time popularity rather more flaring than before, and the dressy, handsome wide brim felt of cream color, and fawn, and white shades, worn set back on the head, and thereby forming an aureole with its brim. The facing is of light creamy silk, shinred, and be neath is a roll of velvet with a flat bow above the forehead ; in this may be placed a rose, cluster of white pinks, carnations or geranium leaves at pleasure. The modified bonnets are as graceful as they are admirable for good taste. The brim is of the flaring halo shape, but the crown is smaller and the sides resemble the long-forgotten modest cottage bonnet, in fitting the head so closely. Ribbon strings are attached to the backs, and women who hoped to protect their ears this winter will find their hopes useless. The ribbon-strings are sin ply to be crossed behind and carelessly brought forward for ornamental dis play. Black lace is also used in the same manner.- Correspondent. THE COTTAGE HEARTH.-We acknoWi ege receipt of a copy of the above named magazine-October number-and find it full of merit, devoted to Home Arts for Home Leisure.

Pure, guileless, .imple-hearted man! Farewell, I know 'tis well with you; The path you walked, the race you ran Were always forward, straigh t and true. Almost the last words that you spoke, While we stood near, hearts touched with awe, While light divine atound you broke: "Love is fulfilling the law." Love, blessed word, the one sweet word, That hides a multitude of sins; The best by man or angel heard, The only charm that always wins. Ah, brother, you have found that rest, That still remains for those, Who, with a weary weight oppressed, Seek from their griefs divine repose. You sought and found, and all is well, Bright, beaming splendors round youshine; Heaven never hears earth's funeral knell, And death is lost in life divine. Why should I bid my friend good-bye? In a short while I'll go to him; How sweet on rapid wings to fly From this lone world so dark and dim. He's gone before, I'll follow soon; How soon 'tis not for me to know, It may be ere another moon Shall in its changes come and go. It may be many, many years; God knows, and what he knows is best; But may His hand, through hopes and fears Safe guide me to the land of rest. C. FOR THE HERAL MR.

Having been engaged for twenty years in .he Guano Trade with eminent success, I leemed it advisable to introduce Fertilizers inder my own name and guarantee. I have nade arrangements to have prepared a 3uano undet my inspection and control, malied ROBSON'S COTTON AND CORN FERTILIZER. This Guano is of the high ,st standard. It contains, among other valuable ingredients, three per cent of Am nmonia, one and a half per cent. of Potash, nd f6urteen per cent. of Available Phos phate. I also have prepared for me a COMPOUND ACID PHOSPHATE of the highest standard. These Fertilizers are ompounded of the purest materials, and are manipulated and tested under the eu pervision of Dr. St. J. Ravenel, of this city, whose name gives a warrant for their high character and adaptation for our soil. I offer these Fertilizers to Planters on the following favorable terms: ROBSON'S COTTON AND GORN FER TILIZER, Cash, $46 per ton; on time, $53. ROBSON'S COMPOUND ACID PHOS. PHATE, Cash, $30 per tan ; on time, $35. Planters ordering immediately will be al lowed to the first of April to decide which they prefer, cash or time. An order for a car load of eight tons will be sent free ol drayage ; but for a less amount $1 per tan will be charged. On orders for large lots from Gratgers or dealers, a liberal discount will be allowed. I take this occasion to return my thanks to those who have so largely patronized the Fertilizers hitherto offered by me, and in soliciting their favorable attention to an. other, I pledge my best efforts to meet a continuance of confidence by keeping the highest standard of Fertilizers adapted tc cotton and corn.
