Love and Friendship.
To - , B*S. E. D.
I.
Iove is a silver cord,
That binds two hearts together,
On earth they dwell in unison,
With time they part forever.
But friendship is a golden cable,
The heart and soul unite,
In heaven we are enabled
To j'idge its fullest might.
II.
By a stroke of pride or anger,
The fragiie cord may break,
At peril or at danger,
The loving heart may quake;
But friendship grows the stronger,
At each unlooked-for shock,
And firm it grows, and firmer, t
As the storm-beaten rock.
III.
On earth true friendship's cable
Can ne'er, no ne'er be riv;i;
The twisted cord will tighter twist
In the bright realms of heaven.
Can love, the msigh ty passion,
Boast of true friendship's grace,
Will it grow more glorious
As it nears the Omnipotent's face?

A Nice Lot of Worthies.
Among the forty-two patriots who e
figure as members of the National Re- r
publican Comwittee, which raet at
Washington last week and claited to
speak in the name of the States and
Territories of the Union, there are r
some rare specimens of personal and E
political virtue. Take the following f
examples selected as they cowe to
hand:
George E. Spencer, carpet-bagger,
jobber, and.Senator from Alabama by
fraud and corruption. t
Powell Clayton, who misrepresents
Arkansas, and author of troubles in
that State.
George C. Gorham, political trader
from California, and :Secretary of t
Senate.
S. B. Conover, carpet-bagger from
Florida.
S. P. Packard, carpet-bagger from
Louisiana and inciter of strife in that :
State. t
J.T. Averill, back -pay grabber of
last Congress from Minnesota.
W. E. Chandler, notorious lobbyist
and jobber at Washington, claiming s
to represent New Hampshire. t
A. G. Cattell, head of the Navy e
Ring, from New Jersey, and silent
partner of Secor Robeson.
Joseph C. Abbot, carpet-bagger from
North Carolina, whom Ben Butler re
pudiaies as a bad investment.' t
B. R. Cowen,- Delano's Assistant ,
Seeretary of the Interior, continued ~
by Chandler, and one of the pillars of
* the Indian Ring from Ohio. t
J. H. Mitchell, much married Sen- t
ator from Oregon, with two names. (
W. H. Kemble, from Pennsylvania,
author of the following infamous let
ter:

This list might be extended, but
the foregoing names illustrate the
beautiful reforms and sterling princi- P
ple; of the party of which they are u
conspicuous chiefs. The Presidential n
campaign is to be conducted under
such auspices, and the country will
know what to expect when addressed a
from the peculiar plane which they fC
occupy. Gov. Morgan of this State p
and Gov. Claflin of Massachusetts d
m ntst have felt comfortable in sitting
at the same table with these associates,
after leaving their pocket-books at k
home. Senator Morton had no com- b
punctious visitings about the company w
into which he was thrown, since poli- e
ties make strange bed fellqws. Be
sides, he wanted to use these fellows, i
and he did, much for poor Blaine's ui
discomiture.-New York Sun. lb
SERGEANT B AT ES TURNS Ur d
- AOAIN.-The irrepressible Sergeant
Bates has turned up in Philadelphia. "
He proposes to establish a camp near b
the centennial grounds nert summer, b
where poor, crippled soldiers of either ~
army may find a soldier's fare and a
soldier's welcome. To raise funds for s
this purpose Sergeant Bates is about b
starting on a lecturing tour, which c
will extend through the Southern f,
States. f
We will trust his tour will not be
extended into the State of Newberry. ~

THE SCIENCE oF EALTH for February i
contains the umnal variety of reading, illus
trated and otherwise, which for usefulness is
beyond questibn equal to anything publisheds
in a periodical. For instance, the advice and
suQggestions contained in such articles as the o
following are beyond price as affecting health
and happiness:
"Studies in Family Life;" "Intemperance I
and its Causes;" "Living to Eat and Eating
to Live;" '-Gluttony ;" "Nature of the Pulse;' a
"The Eyes and Spectacles;" "Why the
Teeth Decay;" "It is So. but Why ?" "Thes
A.ople and its Uses in Food." The Recipe
Dexartment is well filled. So, too, is the
Deiartmen-: ap)ropriatd to matters Agri- a

W E.DNESDAY, JAN. 26, 1876.
A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
The Herald is in the higbest respect a Fam
ly Newspaper, devoted to the material in
erests o? the People of this County and the
tate. It circulates exWnsively. and as an
Ldvertising medium offers unrivalled ad
antages. For Terms, see first page.
The Legislature.
Tbe opening of the session of the
jegislature at Columbia has given
Vhipper a chance of pouring out the
ials of his wrath upon the Governor
nd the News and Courier. The
urn and substance of his address is
you're another." F. J. Moses, Jr.,
eems to be without any special advo
ate in the House. Leslie has again
ade one of his characteristic speeches
n,the occasion of the veto of the
3arnivell-Blackville bill, and has sent
ound circulars denouncing the Gov
rnor. Leslie's pe.t scheme was de
eated, and in the language of the
I:egister he has been "squelched."
:t is anticipated that nothing more
rill be done by the Legislature than
o remain in Columbia two or three
aonths for the consideration of six
lollars per diem and mileage for each
aember, unless something more lucra
ive in the way of jobs turn up.
Our Platform.
We are not now speaking of any
olitical platform but of the substan
ial-or rather unsubstantial one-at
ur Railroad Depot. Public carriers
requently forget that they are public
ervants; that they receive their char
er from the Legislature, giving them
ertain privileges for the purpose of
enefitting the Commonwealth ; but
rhen corporations become bodies of
realth anid power they are apt to think
hat the people have nothing to do
'ith them; that their wants may be
isregarded and their,.charter is given
hem for the sole purposs Qf making
aoney. The Grand Jury of this
ounty has presented the Greenville
nd Columbia- Rail Road Company for
aing a dangerous and entirely in:
ufficient platform at the Depot. It
3 not necessary to dwell-upon the
act, every citizen of this town knows
b and is outraged at it. Frequent
omplaints have been made to the
roper officer by private citizens, and*
E we mistake not, by the Mayor of
e town; but no redress has been
btained. Newberry contributes more
>the income of the road than any
ther Station between Columbia and
~reenville. The citizens feel that they
re badly treated ; that they are enti
ed to safety if not to comfort; and it
to be hoped that the Company will
e made to suffer if they any longer
isregard the wants and rights of the
eope.
Court Houses and Jails.
The dispensation of Justice in this
art of the world seems to be based
pon the notion that everybody con
ected with it should be punished ;
iat culprit, accused, judge, lawyers
adjuries should be made as uncom
rtable as possible. We do not at
resent propose to ask whether the
etention of the guilty should be con
dered as a punishment or as a mere
eeping the culprit from doing harm;
ut it is certainly not in accordance
ith the principles of our much boast
: civilization that one merely ac
ased of a crime and supposed to be
:nocent, should not only be detained
ut tortured and punished before he is
mnd guilty. Why the apartment
esigned for those awaiting trial should
ot be comfortable, be properly heated,
ave sash and glass, beds and clean
edding and abundant ventilation, we
ave always been at a loss, to answer
ltisfactorily. Safety may certainly
e combined with comfort. This state
f things is, of course, not the jailor's
1ult, as no appropriations are made
er such expenditures; and then
b is the usage and custom well
stablished and timne-honored, (save
be mark.) The juries are treated as
they had been on trial for some of
nce in general, for which they should
ffer upon the aforestated principle
f humanity--they have to sleep on
he floor, freeze to death and be starv
d into a verdict. Our ancestors knew
s well as we ao that conscience is
eated in the stomach, and that the
udgment is improved by cold feet
.nd no blankets. The lawyers are
upposed to be kept warm. by the heat
f the argu'.nent, and the judge is put
Party Organization.
Among the topics which are before
the people of our State, there is none
of the same-iwportance as that of the
reorganization of the Democratic party
on a strict party basis. The impor
tance of a thorough organization can
not be estimated too highly when we
consider the purposes and aims of
party. While we are decidedly in
favor of a thoiough reorganization of
the party, there are some features con
nected with that reorganization which
require particular attention. We pro
pose to notice fully those features in
our next issue.'and to present our
views on the subject for the considera
tion of the people.
The correspondent of the Columbia
Register says, "I notice that many
counties have spoken, but Newberry
is yet reticent." The voice of New
berry may not have reached the ears
of the correspondent and - has not
been expressed iu any public meeting,
yet we think our people have a proper
appreciation of the situation, which
will exhibit itself at the proper time,
and which will not consist in empty
resolves. The correspondent also
makes some other remark in con
nection with the subj-ect, which shows
that be is not familiar with the last
campaign in this county. A plan was
then developed and partia,lly carried
into effect, which plan is identical in
many respects with that proposed by
the State Executive Committee of the
Democratic party. It was inaugurated
for the purpose of securing a thorough
organization of the different town
ships, and enabling the people to
give a full expression of their
wishes. The plan was also proposed
so as to allow the people every
opportunity of manifesting their real
wishes in the election of delegates to
County and State conventions. All
the elements of the old mass meeting
style of electing delegates,4n which
a few could control'the better sense of
the people, and by which the whole
people were deprived of the opportu
nity of expressing their wishes, was
entirely disregarded. The details of
the plan as adopted at the last convyen
tion in this county will be published
in our next issue.
Mr. Pope's Address.
The attention of our readers is
called to this document, so that they
may be present on next sale-day and
assist in the good work of reform. This
reform is the only object which we
desire to be accomplished. The open
outrage of electing corrupt judges
made it necessary to at once take steps
to stop further mischief; the people
became thoroughly aroused as to their
situation, and were determined to act.
Action had to be prompt; there was
o time for primary meetings ; the
only nucleus around .which an organi
ation might be formed was the almost
forgotten Democratic Executive Com
mittee. They met, and after due de
liberation and considerable doubt,
thought best to carry on the reform
nder the banner of the Democracy ;
mainly, we suppose, to put themselves
into relation with the Democratic
party in Congress. Whether their
fial determination was wise or not it
is useless now to consider. We must
all be impressed with the necessity
that only a hearty support of the or
anization to be formed can lead to
any practical result. The Executive
ommittee have spoken with great
moderation and liberality, and we are
lad to see that Mr. Pope has caught
heir spirit so happily. .Although it
s under the circumstanrces necessarily
call to the Democracy of the County,
t is virtually an appeal to all the peo
ple who desire reform to array them
elves against those who represent
isgovernment. It is premature what
hould be done in any future con tin
ency, whether to unite with any
ection of the Republican party who
ight organize for reform or act sep
rately. We may safely leave this to
he convention. Our immediate duty
s to select men of honesty anid judg
ment to represent us. With a sense
f this duty we would impress the
people.
A. Part of Whipper's Speech.
"When Moses is a saint in Heaven,
Chanberlain will be howling in hell.
D. H. Chamberlain is unfit for earth ;
to Heaven he could not ascend ; and
in hell itself the devil would spurn
him out. Chamberlain is a black
earted traitor, and he has gone so far
that he must take the consequences.
He has resisted the will of the people,
and the same people which rose in the
time of Charles the First will rise now
and behead him. .The Constitution
commands the Gavernor to issue com
missions to all State officers elected,
and, in refusing so to do, Chamberlain
proves himself a perjured wretch.
The News and Courier sanctum
smells of hell. I feel it my duty to
myself, to my supporters, and to my
race, to take my seat as judge at all
hazards, and I will either be denied
ta posiin by lhw or he relieved by
.Union would he have been allowed to
open his mouth in such a filthy and
disgusting manner. As he has elected
between two alternative, it is best if he
choses the one which will give the
greatest satisfaction-that is 'o die.
The sooner the better.
"There are five years of good steal
ing in South Carolina yet."-J. J.
Patterson.
The political morality of Patterson
is so well known that any expression
is to be expected from him, so that it
is almost needless to attach his name
to any sentiments reeking with political
filth in order to indicate the source
whence it comes.
Editorial Review.
Don't ask us for the Capital of
Barnwell County.
The case of Hoge, our Congressman
-so-called-has been argued by Mr.
Trescott before the Committee on
Elections, but is still undecided.
A number of gentlemen met last
week at the Hibernian Hall, at (har
leston, for the purpose of taking into
consideration the erection of a Hotel
on Sullivan's Island.
Some one in California has invented
a clock sewing machine ; wind her up
and she goes at any required speed for
upwards of an hour, before any further
winding is needed. Ladies, have your
mites ready for a monument.
On the 10th of December last, the
schooner Hartford, bound from Char
leston, S. C., with a cargo of cotton
for Revel, Russia, was stranded on the
Swedish coast; the cargo was being
saved and officers and crew afforded
relief by the U. S. Consul at Copen
hagen.
The Carolina and Central National
Banks in Columbia, and the First and
People's National in Charleston, have
been designated by the Board of De
posit as depositories of State funds.
The First National Bank of Charles
ton will be the depositofy for the in
terest on the funded debt.
Upwards of twenty-two thousand
Utah women have memorialized Con
gress not to disturb their peculiar
religious institutions in reference to
marriage, and to give each of them
160 acres of land as a homestead;
they haven't said anything about the
mules ; but they, no doubt. expect to
have three or four thrown in.
Mr. Reagan, of Texas, has proposed
an amendment to the Constitution of
the United States providing that di
rect taxes shall be levied upon the
States in proportion to the amount of
property they contain, instead of in
the ratio of their popul.ation to that
of the whole Union. This appears to
be eminently reasonable and would
make the burden of paying for the ad
ministration of Government much
more equitable for the South.
The colored citizens of Cfrystal
Spring, Mississippi, in a public meet
ing, have declared their intention to
withdraw from politics; to cultivate
friendly relations with the white race;
to use all means to put down 'crime ;
to endeavor to produce everything ne
cessary for their own consumption at
home, and to organize among them
selves an association similar to that of
the patrons of husbandry.
A worthy example, and which should
be followed in South Carolina. - If
they will only let politics alone there
would be no use for murders pd
house-burnings.
Accordi'ng to the Chester Reporter',
we learn that track laying on the ex
tension of the Chester and Lenoir
Railroad began at Gastonia, the cross
mg of the Air Line, last Monday, and
will be pushed forward vigorously.
An engine has been sent forward to
asten on the work. All the iron
needed in laying this track will be de
livered at Gastonia within ten days.
The fish-bars and spikes have already
been delivered. The work will be fin
ished, at farthest, by the first of April.
Home capitalists are rapidly buying;
up the bonds.
It is said that the Washington la
dies are not intimidated by the cry of
ard times, and that "it.is universally
the subject of remark that the dress
ing this season is more magnificent
than has ever been the case before in
Washington. Individual instances may
be cited of toilets heretofore seen that
have fully equall.ed those now adorn
ing our salons, but rich attire is now
more generally adopted than it was in
the past. The sole reminder of hard
times is the fact that our season has
now nearly passed its second week, and
o entertainments have as yet been
iven or announced comparing with
the balls which gave such eclat to our
life three and four winters ago."
If any of our readers have the
Texas fever, it will be well to read the
following paragraph:
Mr. J. D. Ross writes to the Cedar
Key (Fia.) Journal from Hepstead,
Texas, and advises every young man
in Florida to stay where he is. He
- "A n~n wbn 1en~ another
and expecting, as they do in Florida.
to get a rake and rake up money.
They change their minds before going
over twenty-five miles, and I have
never seen so many disappointed peo
ple since leaving Florida. The people
out htcre are very good, but for gen
erous, honest, friendly peopl- Florida
has Lo equal. -
The Marion Star of yesterday brings
the fNllowing horrible news of the
burning of a whole family of children:
Alex. Ellerbe and his family, consist
ing of his wife and five children, have
been living on the plantation of Mr.
Wesley White, six miles from town.
Ellerbe and his wife -visited a neigh
bor last Sunday afternoon and return
ed about two hours after dark, just as
the burning roof of his house fell in.
All five of his children-aged respec
tively from two to fourteen years,
were consumed in the burning build
ing. The remains of four of the chil
dren seemed to have been in bed,
locked in sweet sleep, while the re
mains of the oldest one, a girl, was
found near the door.
The recent debate on the Amnesty
Bill in Congress has developed the
Yiews of one of the more prominent
of the Presidential candidates of the
Republican party and -the acknow
ledged leader of that party in Con
gress. We have usually given Mr.
Blaine credit of possessing considera
ble ability, and of jossessing* some
slight liberality of mind.. The recent
debate has exhibited him in a new
light. He has shown himself to be
to a great extent narrow-winded and
incapable of the liberality of a true
statesman. He clearly demonstrates
to the public that he is unfit to be the
President of the whole United States,
as he is imbued too strongly with sec
tionalprejudice. He has shown himself
to be strioken with that fatal disease
the Presidential fever-which has
been the bane of men far superior to
himself. The debate has again opened
the question which we had hoped was
forever lrid low. The South spoke.
The time for silence had passed. The
South is entitled to a voice in the na
tional councils and she will insist upon
her right to be heard. Her voice was
properly raised to dispute the unjust
accusations laid -to her charge. Her
voice was not raised to foster sectional
prejudice. She wants harmony between
the different parts of the country, and
insists that the clamor of a few politi
ians who want the presidential nomi
nation shall not be allowed to disturb
the era of good feeling just opening
with the Centennial year.
The mention of the Centennial year
brings to min'd another b'ill which is
before Congress. The bill for an ap
propriation to aid in the proper con
duct of the Centennia! Exhibition has
been opposed by a number of our
legislators on constitutional grounds,
and it was feared that the recent debate
on the Amnesty Bill would drive
others to oppose it for different rea
sons. We thinik that the Centennial
Exhibition should be supported and
made a success. Our national honor
is involved especially, as we have in
vited other nations to join in it. The
South should not oppose the bill. All
of her utterances have been sucli that
opposition to the bill would involve
her in a contradiction. All the mem
ories of the Republic require that we
do not disgrace ours elves by failure in
this matter. We of the South must
rise above petty sectional prejudices,
and show that we have been in earnest
in all our utterances on the subject of
good will and patriotic regard for our
country. The national interest of our
whole country demand the passage of
the bill. The value of such an exhi
bition to a country has been demon
strated too often in the last twenty-five
or thirty years for us to enter upon an
extended discussion of that branch of
the subject.
FOR THE HERALD.
MR. EDITOR :-I write but seldom
and then sonly in brief. I desire
simply to say that the well-tempered
and truthful remarks of your corres
pondent of last week in reference to
ontinuing a lamp on one of the inter
seting corners of Friend and Caldwell
streets are heartily endorsed, and meet
with the responsive sentiment of those
attending divine worship at the eve
ning service of the Baptist and Luth
eran Churches, as well as the citizens
resident in this portion of our town ;
nd we hope they will equally com
end themselves to the kind consid
eration and favorable action of our
worthy Town Council.

FELLOW CITIZENS: The time hhs
come when it is due to our State that
our voice should be he;ird. Many
years, as a district organization, we
have been sileut-looking and trust
ing to others to regulate public affairs
honestly and decently. When amidst
scenes of disgusting license, our - dis
approval was expressed, we have-been
met by solemn promises of reform.
These pledges have been broken!
And the recent election of F. J. Hoses,
Jr., W. J. Whipper and P. L. Wig
giv, shows that reliance should no
longer be placed upon them.
To accomplish needed reforms, it
will be necessary for the will of the
people to be expressed.
Therefore, to secure the full, free
and perfect expression of this will of
the people, so iar as we are concerned,
and by virtue of the request of the
Executive Committee of the Demo
cratic Party in South Carolina, I do
now call upon the Democracy of this
County to assemble at Newberry
Court House, on Sale'day in February
next, to take such action in view of
the recent public calamities, as they
may deen best.
Respectfully,
Y. J. POPE.
