T.he lHeiral. THOS. F. GRENEKER, EDITOR. NEWBERRY, S. C. WEDNESDAY, DEC. 1, 1875. A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE. The Herald is in the highest respect a Fam ily Newspaper. devoted to the material in terests of the people of this County and the State. It circulates extensively. and as an Advertising medium offers unrivalled ad vantages. For Terms, see first page. Our Congressman. The *question is whether we have any. It is contended that Judge Hoge is not our representative. The law requires that a Congressional Dis trict be composed of contiguous terri tory. The Third District consists of the Counties of Oconee, Pickens, An derson, Abbeville, Laurens, Newberry and Richland; the latter County is totally detached from any of the other Counties composing the Congressional District. If the District is not con stituted as required by Act of Con gress it is not entitled to any repre sentation. If Judge Hoge does not legally represent us-and we are Latis fled that he does not represent us equitably-we should prefer to have no Congressman at all for our share until the next regular election. It has been suggested by our contemporaries of the Medium and Intelligencr, that petitions be circulated in every County of the District, requesting Congress to oust Hoge from his seat. It seems to us it would be sufficient to present a memorial signed by a few, through one of its members to the House, which would refer the case to the Committee on Elections and they would inquire into the facts and the law. A hundred thousand signatures cannot increase the illegality of the election, nor can the number of petitioners add to the force of the legal argument before Congress. It is not like recommending a man for a Post Office where each name adds to the weight of the recomnmendation. But whatever be done le't us have unity of action, and if it be found necessary to have petitions let them be uniform in the different Counties. We might have committees appointed next Sale. day, to consult with similar ones of the other Counties as to the best plan of proceeding; a petition signed by them or a mere statement by them of the facts sent to some member of Congress might be sufficient. We merely throw out the hint. Third Term Prospects. Grant is determined to have a war with Spain if a war is necessary to secure him a third term. We might as well give him an estate for life in the White House and save expenses. His desire to be re-nominated appeared never plainer than when in the celebrated -letter to the Pennsylvania convention he denied his desire of a re-nomination. There is no possible combination of circumstances whieh will not make it obligatory upon his patriotism to accept the call of his country; and there are no possible intrigues which he will not employ to bring about such a combination of circu'm.stances as will induce his friends to call him. The third term dead ? Why, it is budding most vigorously in the soil of Washington, and the little fibres insinuate themselves into every Federal office ; you may find the root lets as far as the Black Hills; every whiskey barrel is a watering pot to supply the necessary moisture to keep the trunk vigorous. Since the recent elections there is hardly any conceal ment; when in his serenading speech Grant said that the control of the National Government was secured to the Republican party for another term, who can doubt but that Grant and the Republican party were used as interchangeable terms. The Vir ginius affair happened a little too soon. The war would have been over by this time and the necessity for Grant would have ceased. Now is about the right time to commence; for the old hulls and penetrable plate-frigates and un navigable monitors vulgarly called the American Navy would be very roughly handled by the Spanish ironclads, and Grant would be a continuing necessity until we had a competent naval arma ment. And what would be more in accordance with the fitness of things than for Grant to annex the Tobacco Isle. Destiny seems to have selected, prepared and trained him for that sole purpose; and it -is dangerous to at tempt to thwart . Destiny. Methinks the spirit of History whispers into my ears that when finally borne down with the care of his horses and dogs, Grant abdicates in favor of Prince Fed, a gratefnl people will make him Duke Partagas de Abajo, with the whole Tobacco Revenue for an income, and erect a monument in his honor in Moro Castle in the nature of a cigar shaprd nolisk, with an eternal fire burning at the sky end for the guid ance of belated whiskey schooners. 'Well, I expect when the time comes we will throw up our hats like the rest of them, hurrah for Grant and get up a volunteer company of Cuban Libera tors. The Governor's Message. The mozt important subjects to which the Governor invites the atten tion of the Legislature are thus sum med up in the concluding paragraphs of the message itself: "The measures which I deem most essential to the present welfare of the State arp: First, the prompt passage of a supply act which shall impose the lightest possible burden of taxation; second, the enactment of a law which shall require all disbursements of pub lie funds, except the interest on the public debt, to be made upon warrants of the comptroller-general, issued upon vouchers approved by that officer and permanently recorded in his office; third, the keeping of all appropriations within the limits of the funds actually provided for by taxation ; fourth, the immediate and large reduction of the scale of all public expenditures ; fifth, the equitable adjustwent of the float ing indebtedness of the State upon a plan embracing the most rigid scrutiny, by impartial agencies, of all claims, and the gradual payment by taxation of the valid claims; sixth, the inflexible observance of exact good faith respect ing the public debt." The total value of real property is $90,095,407. That of personal pro perty $46,791,006, in which is in eluded a considerable amount of per sonal pioperty which has hitherto escaped taxation. The North Eastern and part of the South Carolina Rail road property is now likewise subjected to taxation. The Legislative expenses for the fiscal year are $150,000 ; the previous year $190,000, and the Gov ernor thinks $120,000 should cover the expenses of the present year. The public printing has been reduced du ring the past year from the annual average of $181,209 during the three preceding years to $50,000 per year. A fair and honest competition in the bidding is recommended. In speak ing of the Bank and Trust Co., the Governor gives us but little comfort as to the value of its assets; he recom mnendi a settlement of the floating in debtedness, and that county commis sioners make specific levies for all leading objects of expenditure as is now done by the State ; the establish ment of County High Schools is again submitted to the consideration of the Legislature. The Normal School is reported as in a satisfactory conditi'n. The suspension of the school for the Deaf, Dumb and Blind at Spartan burg is called an act of educational retrogession and its resumption is re commended. The Lunatic Asylum needs a more liberal support, which, with proper retrenchments in other expenses of the State, could be met without increased taxation. Great im provements have been made in the management of the Penitentiary, and the Governor finds its financial condi tion satisfactory ; he recommends a reduction of the Penitentiary appro priations to $30,000, which he deems sufficient with the proper employ of convict labor. He insists that a law be passed to carry into execution the constitutional provision for the election of Justices of the Peace and for the registration of voters. It is recom mended that an appropriation be made to aid the State Agricultural and Me chanical Society; that the Palmetto Monument be repaired ; that Judges of high character and sufficient legal learning be elected, and that the State be represented at the Centennial Cele bration. From the showing made it appears that matters are improving apace, and if the Legislature will fol low the advice given in the Governor's concluding remarks a better time is not far off. "The work and spirit," he says, "which 1 commended to you a year ago, I commend with increased earnestness to you now--the work of correcting abuses and restoring good administra tion-the spirit of integrity and fidel ity towards those whose trusts we hold. Some gratifying results have been reached, but the future has heavier tasks than those already achieved. I might urge these things upon my political associates as essential to the life and success of their political party, for so they are; but I choose to urge them upon the common, unassailable ground of the public welfare. He will be a blind politician who is not also a patriot. The truly wise public man in this State to-day will labor and pray for the peace and'honor of South Carolina; for the increase of official integrity ; for the confirmation to every citizen of all civil and political rights; for the establishment of a government which shall protect all and oppress none." A Valuable Medical Treatise. The edition for 1876 of the sterling Medical Annual, known as' Hostetter's Almanac, is now ready, and may be obtained, free of cost, of druggists and general country dealers in all parts of the United States and British Amer ica, and indeed in every civilizel portion of the Western Hemisphere. It combines, with the soundest practical advice for the preser vation and restoration of health, a large amount of interesting and amusing light reading, and the calender, astronomical cal culations, chronological items, &c., are pre pared with great care, and will be found entirely accurate. The issue of Hostetter's Almanac for 1876 will probably be the largest edition of a medical work ever published in any country. The proprietors, Messrs. Hlos tetter & Smith, Pittsburg, Pa., on receipt of a two cent stamp, will forward a copy by mail to any person who cannot procure one in his neighhorhoon 4R--5t Legislative. The Legislature convened on the 23rd alt. The annual- message (No. 1) of Gov. Chamberlain was then read in both houses. The Governor re turned to the House the act to raise supplies for the fiscal year 1875, with out his approval and his reasons there for. (Message No. 2). Message No. 3 communicated the intelligence of the death of Hon. Henry Wilson, Vice-President of the United States. A petition to the Legislature to ask the passage of a law to stop the night trade in cotton has been extensively circulated in Aiken county. A good move; such a law is greatly needed. The House unanimously sustained the veto of the supply bill. A com mittee of 5 were appointed to prepare resolutions relative to the death of Joe Crews. In the Senate, Cochran's resolution to appoint a committee to report amendments to the Constitution was adopted. In reference to the election of Judges, a correspondent of the Green ville 11News says "Judge Maher, Judge Townsend and Judge Carpenter, have, I think, no opponents. Judge Shaw has a formidable competitor in Mr. Baker. Judge Reed, who has no chance, it appears, in Mr. Lord; aad Judge Cooke, in all the defeated aspirants. I shall qualify the last statement by the omission of the word "formidable." While all of the defeated aspirants may go fur the Eighth Circuit, I do not regard them as formidable. In fact Judge Cooke's chance are equal to any. Whipper's name is mention ed in connection with the Charleston Circuit, but he cannot secure the united support of the Republican party. Judge Moses has no support, and Mackey none, except that of Chamberlain and his clique." Editorial Review. W. B. Astor is dead ; aged 84 years, and worth - millions. The official vote for Oregon gives Lane-democrat-for Congress, 267 majority. The machinery for the new Cotton Factory at Greenville, known as Camp erdown, is arriving. - Weston, the great pedestrian, has found his match in one O'Leary, who beat him lately at Chicago.. The United States Circuit Court, in Columbia in the newly finished Fede ral Court House, is trying whiskey cases. The Sumter True Southron is again agitating a change in the fence law, and desires the subject fully dis cussed. Moody and Sankey have left -Brook lyn without converting either Beecher or Boss McLaughlin. The "Sun" is in distress about it. The Centennial Exhibition will be opened on May 10, 1876, and remain open every day except Suday until 10th November. In a match game of billiards for $1,000 and the championship, 600 points, three ball game, Cyrille Dion won in 48 innings, against Maurice Daly, who scored-557. The Turkish rebellion is gaining strength. and it is believed Herzego vina is irredeemably lost to the Sul tan. It looks as if that Eastern breeze might shortly swell into a hur ricane. Jacob Kinloch, the Charleston negro confined in Abbeville jail for burglary and attempted murder, tried to escape last week by firing the jail, It was prevented, however, through the vigi lance of Mr. C. WV. Guffin Brick Pomeroy denies that he has failed and that the Democrat is to be suspended. Copies of his paper used to be as plentiful in these parts as blackberries.. We haven't seen one for years. The "Democrat" is sus pended at Newberry we know. Moody and Sankey turned over' their evangelical work in Brooklyn to the clergy and Mr. Needham, the Irish Evangelist. They themselves have gone to Philadelphia, where they preach to jimense audiences in the old Pennsylvania R. R. freight depot, which holds some 12,000 persons. Henry Wilson, the Vice-President of the United States, died in Wash ington, on the 22d uIt., at 7& o'clock in the morning; he was a self-made man of undisputed integrity, and after his visit to the South. opposed to Grant's policy and zealously in favor of conciliatory measures towards the South. Hans von Bulow, the first living pianist, with the possible exception of Liszt, has commenced a series of con certs in Chickering Hall, which is said to be the fines'. Concert Hall in the United States, and which had just been finished in time for Bulow's concerts. His reception was quite1 enthusiastic. Competent crities assert that as an interpreter of Beethoven he has no equal. - The Union-Rerald relates with evidetft gusto a raid of the doughty police of Columbia upon some houses of unenviable notoriety in the vicinity of the jail, and the dragging of a dozen infortunate creatuts' to the lock-up X the dead of night. We do not like such things heralded with sound )f trumpet and eymbal through the -olu-mns of a iewspaper. Who wants to know the names and details of apture and arrest of these unfortu aates? There seems to be some fun in Father Experiden, the Bulgarian Priest, who is waking the tour of the world, and paid us a flying visit week before last. Near Hodges as the Medium informs us, he came upon a lot of railroad hands suddenly, and rawing his gun down, said, "I want the biggest, greasiest negro in the lot for my dinner." He didn't get him. You better look out, Father Experiden, Judge Bond is holding court in Col mbia and he might want a Turkish Ku Klux for his dinner. No number )f certificates of good character could save you in that coat, leaving the cap and hair altogether out of the question. We learn from the Intelligencer that Messrs. Seibels & Ezell, of Colum bia, began on the 24th ult., the sale of a large number of valuable lots and farms around Seneca City, a growing town-mostly on paper-situated at the crossing of the Air Line and. Blue Ridge Railroads, the principal industry of the inhabitants of which is the digging of Seneca Snake Root. Messrs. Seibels & Ezell, are deter mined, however, to transfer the city from paper to land and to extend the industry of the people. To speak seriously, the situation is very pro mising. Those in search of a home or profitable investment might as wel! take a peep before running clear out Df the State. South Carolina Synod. At the Synod of South Carolina, which met at Yorkville, on Thursday, November 5, there were ninety mem bers present. Rev. R. H. Reid was elected Moderator, and the Rev. J. H. Law Stated Clerk, vice Rev. Wrn. Banks, deceased. Bethel and Charles. ton Presbyteries were each assessed 200, and South Carolina and Har mony each $300 for the Theological Seminary.
