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.

FOR THE HERALD.
In Meinoriam.-.A. M. Wicker.
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.

AND DEALER IN
FERTILIZERS.
CDARLESTON, S. C.,
November 1, 1875.
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.
