The Heirald. TOOS. F. GRENEKER, EDITOR. NEWBERRY, S. C. WEDNESDAY, DEC. 22, 1875. A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE. The Herald is in the highest respect a Fam ily Newspaper, devoted to the material in terests or the people of this County and the State. It circulates extensively. and as an Advertisin- medium offers unrivalled ad vantages. 'or Terms, see first page. What is to Be Done. The quarrel between the seaboard and the mountains is settled by the late election. Let every one under stand at the beginning that Moses and Whipper shall NOT take their seats. As they have courted investigation let them have it. If they can be cou victed of crimes which would disable them from holding office let suits * be instituted. If Solicitors and Grand Juries connive let the old Judges who fill unexpired terms take their seats to which they are said to be entitled under the law for four years, be pro tected in their action, and let the newly elected judges oust them by a quo warrento,, if they can. Being no lawyer we submit the above point with diffidence. If that won't work, let us meet and consult. The International Review. The above Bi-monthly Magazine has superior claims to the considera tion of the student and general reader who desires to be kept au fait from reliable sources with~~ihe important events in the world of Politics, Reli gion and Science. The interests of the different nations have become so interwoven that what is spoken in France has its influence in Japan, and what is discovered in Berlin may open new fields of industry in Colorado. In the forthcoming January number the complicated Herzegovinian ques tion and Draper's"History of the Con flict between Science and Religion" will be fully treated by competent writers. Proctor will teach us starry lessons, and "Psychology of Murder" will give the most advanced doctrines of insan ity in its legal application. Other in teresting articles and a full review -of current events will be found in its pages. Subscription $5.00. Our Judges,' Oh. On last Thursday the curtain rose on the most disgraceful scene that was ever enacted in Legislative Hall. If anything could exceed the disgrace of the.result of the performance it is the manner in which it was put on the boards. The only thing to be ad mired is the rapidity with which at one rehearsal the actors learnt their parts so that not the least prompting was. needed when the play was pre sented to the public. The resolution passed by th.e Senate to have an elec tion for Judges on Thursday, the 16th, was sent to the House for concurrent action. The House laid the resolution on the table on Wednesday, the 15th, with the distinct mental reservation hat it, should be taken up next day when the indignant glance and withering speech of the Governor could not shame them into de cency ; they knew he had an engage ment at Greenville, and they insidious ly lulled his suspicions to sleep by tabling the resolution. Determined as they were to carry theiinfamous designs into execution, confident in their triumph-as iio veto could be *interposed to their action-still they were afraid of being cowed in the presence of the stern magistrate who had so nobiy battled for their rights but would not support them in their wrongs. *Whipper, Moses, Jr., and Mackey ; lovely trio. How glad they should have felt to be let alone and be allow ed to retire into obscurity with the in difference if not the forgiveness of the decent people of the State. But now, as they have been thrust into high places, an investigation into their for. mer actions may still save us from the curse of their judicial administration. There is many a slip between the cup and the lip; and we have abiding hope that the old adage may be veri fied, strengthened and enlarged by its application to the above named trio. OJf Wiggins we know nothing, but we hold that he would not spoil the fair proportions of a quartette. We would state distinctly that we have no remarks to make as to the election -of any cormpetent and honest Judge who way have slipped in-we speak of the election of Judges as an organic wvhole. Taumn witt LAST.-That good old family newspaper,tbe New York Observer, now some fifty-thiee years old, still holds on to the old trmhs which were so firmly advocated when it was founded. No new lights or nineteenth century doctrines have ever caused it to trip or mak~e any false step. It is always satisfy ing in our day, to take up a newspaper that is sound and reliable. The Observer comes to us weekly with a variety of reading in ad dition to tbc news, and it is alvays pure and hcah.lhv-just the paper for a famdly. For specimien copies, address S. L. Primle & Co., New York. Songs of the Land and Sea. BY ES.NERALDA BOYLE. We welcome the new songs of this sweet liDnet of the South. They well up from the fount of the purest of souls and kindest of hearts. She embalms us with the fragrance of the forest, bathes us in the light of the stars and rocks us to sleep with the rythm of the waves. "Borne on the air that hovered o'er the sea The scent of spice, the fragrance of flowers, Were mingled with the odor of the brine, As moments among hours." And through all this outer vesture she never fails, to reveal to us. how ever wistily, the spirit which therein dwelleth. This power to bring us nearer to the essence which underlies all this outward show is the gift of the I poet alone. Above all she loves her own sunny South with a woman's love; it bursts unconsciously through every chink and cranny. This alone should endear her to our people, who could certainly find nothing more appropriate for a Christmas gift than the "Songs of the Land and Sea," beautifully clad as they come to us in a dress of blue percale, with black border and gold trimmings. They are to be had at John Chapman's bookstore. Grant and the Sabbath School Union. The Methodist Sabbath School Union, at its meeting at Boston on Monday, according to the Associated Press dispatch, resolved itself into a political caucus, with Bishop Haven as Boss Grant's representative. This Grant prelate, it seems, "urged as a measure of public safety the re nomination of Gen. Grant for Presi dent," and his views "were adopted by a unanimous vote." What the two hundred Methodist ministers com posing this Sunday School Union have to do with the third term, or what right they have to turn from their allotted work to advise the people for whom they shall vote for the next President, it is hard to discover. Their action was indecent, offensively joining church and state. Suppose a Roman Catholic Congress, incited thereto by Cardinal McCloskey, should pass resolutions advising the election to the Presidency of Tilden or Thurman or anybody else, what a howl there would be ',broughout the country. All good Protestants would despair of the State unles's they banded themselves together to destroy the Papists. Yet here a bishop of the more powerful Methodist communion, supported by two hundred of its ministers, urges the re election of Grant ! We know of nothing in the history of our religious bodies, Roman Catho lic or Protestant, that compares with the action of the Methodist Sabbath School Union at Boston in imperti nence and presumption. We are sure it will receive general rebuke from the great denomination it misrepresents. [New York Sun. We know that such action will find no countenance in the South at least. Our ministers still cling to the belief, however obsolete such belief may be growing in other parts of the- world. that the church is not a political body nor an electioneering contrivance. We have some faint recollection that some ignorant colored chaplain in our Legis lature prayed for a certain measur.e then before the House; that was, however, in the heyday of legislative partizanship and ignorance, and could hardly happen at the present day. We have a good deal to learn from our Boston brethren, but it is to be hoped that we will be slow to learn such les sons as the above.

The above is the original Greek text of a newly discovered passage from the 'Wasps' of Aristophanes, which was submitted by our neighbor of the News to the successful Greek prize-fighters for translation, for a reward of one year's subscription. After twelve hours of successive scalp-scratching they gave it up in despair. The manuscript is now in the hands of Prof. Whitsitt him self who, when last seen, was buried in a stack of grammars and dictionaries with a teapot full of Young Hyson by his side to keep him awake, and who decared that he was determined to ren der the Greek buzzing of that very 'Wasp' into English if it took him till and thus tWe matter stands. Editorial Review. Judge Shaw is holding an extra Uourt at Sumter. Tweed's stolen fortune has shrank froi six to two millions. Wachtel as "Lohengrin" is a great uccess in the German Opera of New Y'ork. The $30,000 race will come off on Christmas day at San Francisco, the weather permitting. Claremont Lodge of Sumter had a pleasant time on election night aftei being called from 'labor' to 'refresh. ment.' The Sheriff of Marion has captured fourteen of the gang of robbers whc had been infesting the neighborhood f Mars' Bluff. The Eddy Spirit Band has disor. ganized and scattered. The sfirit; ns were nearly starved when they dis. solved copartnership Rainey, of South Carolina, intro. duced a resolution to abolish the committee on "Freedmen's Affairs f the Hou,e, which was agreed to. Col. D. H. Jacques, for six years editor of the Rural Carolinian, has resigned. Col. D. W. Aiken takes his place. Recommendation unneces sary! Commodore Vanderbilt has made an additional donation of a hundred thousand dollars to the Vanderbilt University at Nashville, making it 5700,000. The Cubans look forward to another year of war, and say that if they can sustain themselves twelve months longer they will certainly achieve their independence. Our neighbors of Laurens shared the fate of our Abbeville friends. hey missed the elephant, but saved their money. Let them invest it in railroad stock. It is proposed by the Democratic ide of the House of Representatives to cut down the army to 15,000 men, end some 400 officers to civil life and ave some sixteen millions a year. The Columbians are looking out for Ben DeBar, the New Orleans come :ian, famous for his rendition of "Falstaff." Pass him up this way, we want to laugh off our troubles. A History of the Cornet Bands of the State, their rise and fall, is called For. Who will write it up? Perhaps the Press and Banner will undertake it, and couclude with a few obapters in Hook and Ladder Companies. Governor Chamberlain in many ways has shown that he has the public interest at heart and is disposed tc help on the work of reform, but it does seem inconsistent that he should exercise the prerogative of pardon sc extensively. We learn froma the Laurensville erald, that the mill and gin-house containing five bales of cotton of Capt G. W. Shell, and thbe barn of Mr. H R. Allison, of Laurens Co., have been burnt. Both thought to be the work of an incendiary. Dogs vs. Sheep is by the Marion Merchant d Farmer. decided in fa vor of the latter. Our readers know that we have not sufficient love for the former to offer our services in theji defence. Get the curs out of the way and let us have wool and mutton. James Fetner, the engineer in charge of one of the trains when the late ac. cident happened on the C. C. & A. R R., has been committed to jail by tria justice Marshall, to await his trial fox murder at the Mirch term of the Edgefield Court of General Sessions. Greenwood is getting enthused on the subject of a band, aud Mr. Blake of the Era, it is said, will blow one o1 the big horns. Like measles in a family, cornet bands have to go through the country, and Greenwood might as well have her turn now. Prof. Schmitt is there. The excitin-g contest for United States Senator, which has occupied the time of the Conservative caucus of Virginia for four days, has been brought to a close by the renomination of John W. Johnston, on the 45th ballot. He will, of course, be elected by the Legislature. The Sells' Brothers, with their cir us and menagerie, failed to make their appearance at Abbeville last Saturday week, and about twenty-five hundred people were sold, together with the Medium and the Press and Banner for advertising. They could not have done a greater favor than by staying away. It was a complete sell. Mrs. C. C. Bowen is dead. She was the daughter of the late Jamnes L. Pettigru, and well known even be ond the State for her brilliant con ersational powers. She wrote several novels, which attracted considerable ttention at the time of their publica tion, the best known of which is "Busy Moments of an Idle Woman." The case of "Our Congressman" will not come up for investigation be ore next month. It may involve the guestion whether any of the Congress. men from this State arc legally elected, as the districting of the whole State was not dobe in accordance with law. If it shou'ld unseat them all our lach rymal glands would be very feebly exercised. "Morton introduced a joint resolu tion that the United States constitute a ation, and that the riglits of States annot be enlarged or diminished ex ept by constitutional amendments, ad that secession is impossible." Now, that is all bosh. Whether secession is possible is a matter of fact and not of law ; we tried it as an issue af fact and abide by the verdict. The Hon. Geo. H. Pendleton was erenaded at Atlanta on the 13th inst., and nominated by Gen. Gartrell for the Presidency of the United States. We think a certain amount should be padt-ne addt o n f p,ad t ethe cndidate ifo any fil to run, to be applied to the establish went of an inafirwary for worn out political nags. It is extensively rumored in New York that Boss Tweed has gone to Savannah-so the Savannah News reports. May be he is making his way to Orangeburg to spend his Christmas with his friend, the Land Commis sioner from that county, in the discus sion of former glorious exploits. Olim meninisse juvabit. Freely translated: When birds of a feather flock together it is pleasant to chirp about fat worms caught in former days. By the explosion of a case of dyna mite on board a tug-boat at Bremer haven, 51 person were killed and 37 wounded, mostly spectators on the shore. It is reported that Thomas, who had the dynamite on board, bad another case on board the steamer "Mosel," fixed by clockwork to explode in mid-,cean and destroy the ship for the sake of insurance. We have been considering the propriety of abolishing capital punishment. Such a case as the above does not incline us more favorably to its abolition. The resolution of Fort, of Illiois, "that in all subordinate appointments under any of the officers of this House, it is the judgment of the House, that wounded Union soldiers who are not disabled from the performanee of duty, should be preferred," was defeated, and the resolution of Cox adopted : "That inasmuch as the Union of the States has been restored, all the citi zens thereof are entitled to considera tion ir the appointment of offices un der this government." It way be news to Mr. Fort, but the war is really over. "Church property is taxed in Cali fornia, and this was brought about by the heathen. The Chinese availed themselves of the exemption of church property to evade taxation on their joss-houses, which are very numerous, and maiuly merely opium-smokers' re sorts ; and to prevent this it was ne cessary to make general the taxation .of all real estate used for religious purposes." We have no joss-houses in this State, and are willing that church pro perty should go untaxed, and no church need be afraid on that account to erect comfortable parsonages for their pastors, as should be done every where. "Springler, of Illinois, offered reso lutions declaring that in the opiniou of the House, the precedent estab lished by Washington and other Presi dents of the United States in retiring from the Presidential office after their second term has become by universal concurreuce a part of the republican system of government, and that any departure from that time honored cus tomn would be unwise, unpatriotic and fraught with evil to our free institu. tions. The vote.stood yeas 232; nays 18.'' We are as much opposed as anybody to the third term; but we do not send our Congressmen to Washington to express their opinions on abstraci questions. It is a very bad precedent The following resolution of Holman, which was adopted by the Houses settles Tom Scott's Southern Pacific R. R. scheines. Yeas 223 ; nays 33 Resolved, That in the judgment of this Rouse, in the present conidition of the financial affairs of the Govern went, no subsidies in money, bonds, public lands, .endorsements, or by pledge of the public credit should be granted by Congress to associations or corporations engaged or proposing t engage in public or private enterprises, and that all the appropriations from the public Treasury ought to be limited at this time to such amounts only as shall be imperatively demanded by the public service. The Abbeville Medium, in the fol lowing, hits the nail on the head: "Economize. Save your dimes. The next twelve months bid fair to be the hardest we have had for years, and it is the part of good sense to improve our present opportunities and advan tages limited though they be. This is no false alarm. Money was never so scarce as at present, and credit never so bad. Great destitution and absolute want prevail in many sections of the country, and the tendency is to the South. There is not now a half year's supplies ahead and the people are to be again subjected to the tender mercies of unscrupulous speculators. There is nothing so important now as the careful husbanding of our re sources. If we cut down expenses, lay aside our pride and prejudices and do a little more work with our own hands, save every cent and learn to do without our luxuries and even many of our comforts, we may be able to breast the storm that is sure to come, and ride safely into port."
