FmEE!!!-A destructive fire occured at Ninety Six, S. C., December 21st, by which four stores valued at $20.000 were burned. The further spread of the conflagration, with probable destruction of the whole town and loss of several hundred thousand dollars worth of property, and many lives, was pre vented by the arival of a Great American Fire Extinguisher, an Agent happening to come in town at the nick of time. For fall partic!ars, see the Abbeville Medium and Newberry HERALD of the following week. Mr. P. P. Toale, of Charleston, S. C., is the General Southern Agent for the Great American Fire Extinguisher, and will answer all inquiries in regard to the same. 4-tf. MESRs. KINGSLAND & HEATH, like the rest of mankind who are endeavor ing to please the public by supplying gcods at cheap prices, are up in the r.ce for public favor. Their stock of China, Glass, Crockery, Wood, Tin and Iron ware and Fancy Articles is of end less variety and superior excellence, and at such prices as cannot fail to suit the depleted pocke s of the people. Don't forget that this establishment is located under the Columbia Hotel, Columbia, S. C. 3-tf To SMOKERS.-Messrs. Perry & Slawson, the popular segar dealers in Columbia, are always up with the times, and therefore to keep up with the pop ular idea they offer great bargains to smokers. It is astonishng how they can afford to offer segars as cheap as they do, but truth is stranger than fic tion, and it is only necessary to try them to be convinced. Just think of getting a whole box of segars for $1.25; think of it, and-if you have the money 1 send at once for a supply. Think of it! and if you have not so small a sum, weep because of your impecuniosity. One door above Columbia Hotel and next to DiaYs Hardware Emporium.

Mark's Church, Edgefield County, on last Friday, and adjourned on Sun-1 day. T AXTE.-The time when the penalty will attach for the non-payment of taxes is rapidly drawing near, and it1 would be well if all parties interested pay up as soon as possible. PUBUIC MEETING.-The citizens of Newberry will bear in mind the call of T. J. Pope, E2q., for a public meeting on Monday next. Every man in the Cogsty should attend on that occasion. Col. J. P. Thomas, Superintendent of the Carolina Military Institute at Charlotte, N. C., will accept our thanks for an invitation to the semi-annual ex jhibition, by the first and second class. Mr. John Blats, formerly publisher of the Ellijay Courier, having pulledl up his stakes in the growing town of Elli jay, we notice has fixed himself in Gainesville, Ga.. as the publisher of the "Eagle." Health, prosperity and hap piness attend all of his moves. A GooD PAPER. - The Columbia .ister is going ahead with the speed of a house afire. It is a capital paper and we are rejoiced at its success. Un der the editorial management of Mr. Peiham it is just what the intelligent people of the State like. Mr. Emlyn, too, in the local department, .gets up a daily dish of such sprightliness as can not fail to please. Everybody should take the Register. D)EUGHTED.-The party of ladies and gentlemen who went down to Co lumbia to witness Booth in his cele brated character of Hamlet, have re turned with smiling faces. Like Nor THERE will be services in the Baptist Church next Sunday as usual; in the morning at 11 o'clock, in the night at about 7 o'clock. A Historical sermon will be preached in the morning by the Pastor, in which matters of unusual interest will be pre sented. The citizens of the town gene rally are cordially invited to attend.

Attention is called to the notice in our dvertising columns of new books by ] he above named popular authoress and ust issued from the press of T. B. Peter 3on & Brothers, Philadelphia. Orders or these books can either be sent direct to publisher, or may be left at this of ace, for any one or the entire set. Cash must accompany order. The lumber yard of Mr. J. A. Sligh is in an active state of preparation, and the wants of our people in that line :an soon be supplied. Mr. Sligh as done a gocd thing for New erry in thus establishing a business he want of which has long been felt, md we are satisfied that his energy will :e appreciated and a fine business row up out of it. Success attend him ;ay we. NOT So.-The Columbia Union-Her Id is incorrect in its statement that t .ark, recently sentenced to the Albany )enitentiary, and who made his escape t vhile being conveyed there, belonged o Newberry. We have rascals enough iere without having this one saddled >n us. Clark was brought here by U. . officers, from some where, and lodg t d in Newberry Jail, and his offence vas illicit traffic of whiskey brought rom North Carolina, and we learn that ie is a colored tar heel. Give New >erry credit, Mr. Herald, all the rascals re not ifrom here. JUDGE MOSES AND THE GRAND URY.-The Grand Jury, at the late erm of Court, evinced an independent rigor and determination which is en itled to credit. Tihey have made many C ood and wise suggestions which it is o be hoped. will be acted upon. In ' ~act, we believe they will, and that. His ~ Ionor Judge Moses, who sees the pro riety of these suggestions bieing car ied out, will exert all of his influence ~ o that end. He can do much, and will S lo it we have no doubt. The Grand ru-y were the right men in the right lace, and knowing their duty they ere not afraid to do it. The editor of the Abbeville Press and E anner is very much exercised aboutt ur health and happiness, and thinks e hat we receive entirely too many tur- a lip donations. He wants us to cry, 'Hold, enough !" But we cannot do hat unless something else would turn ip. Did he live in a county agricul- r rally as rich and productive as New- ~ erry, and surrounded by generous rends like our farmers, his table would S s ie also loaded weekly with turnips. le has our sympathy and the offer of a ness of the roots. -Come over to New ery. -___ _ PERSONAL.-J. Scott Murray, Esq., 'j >f Anderson, paid us a visit on Thurs- t lay last. He gave cheering geccounts e >f doings in his wide-awake town. -1 Maj. Jas. Stewart favored Newberry i vith a visit last week. We never saw 1 iim looking better physically or in bet- f er spirits. His outward make up was lso unexceptionable. Our esteemed townsman, Mr. F. E. alinas, after an absence of some weeks, c eturned on Tuesday last, and happily 2 rought with him a charming and ac- C :omplished bride. But, alas, he is gone T again for another short trip. It is grati- I ying to know that he will soon settle ' own here. C WORLDLY PLESURES.-We have the pleasure of announcing to the readers f the HERALD that we are- permitted by the author to re-publish a series of~ rticles under the above heading which ately appeared in the Lutheran Visitor. hey are eomprised in eight numbers and shall appear consecutively, the first rticle commencing in the paper of February 9th. ~This is a highly inter sting series, and on a subject which il not fail to attract attention, and 0ming as they do from the pen of a itizen of Newberry, whose literary abilities are of acknowledged superior- t ity, it is needless for us to more than draw attention to the fact of their pub- I lication. It would be well for those who are not subscribers, and who wish. to read the entire series, to subscribe at nce and make sure of getting them. LooK- OUT for thieves, citizens, in j town and through the County. Be on your gruard, and sleep if possible witht one eye open. Thompson, the con demned murdere' and the others ac-t Dsed of the same crime, are not the only ones who are prowling around I watching an opportunity to rob, and I who will not hesitate to kill for a little money. The late fire at Prosperity is one proof of this, and that it is general it is only necessary to glance over the I various County papers of the State and 4 Messrs. Wilcox, Gibbs & Co., offer to the planters of this section their cele brated Manipulated Guano in this issue. Read their notice. The Soluble Pacific Guano and Com pound Acid Phosphate is again brought to the attention of plante'rs by Messrs. E. H. Frost & Co., of Charleston. Messrs. Ravenel & Co., of Charleston )ffer their Calcined Marl, as a fertilizer ind renovator of land, and as the .heapest article before the public. The Stono Phosphate Co., of Charles ;on, through their Treasurer, Mr. C. E. Williams, invite attention to their Solu )le Guano and Acid Phosphate, both ,varranted as represented. SOMETHING FOR DARWIN.- Much iommisseration was felt and expressed iere during a portion of last week at he sad fate of a couple.of monkeys vhich were forced to go through their ittle programme of antics to the vilest nusic ever ground out of a worn-out 1and organ. Sad was their fate, indeed. ['he instrument must have been the first ver used in that business, and was so vorn that it took two turns of the han lie to produce a note, and that so sad Ld plaintive as almost to draw tears 'rom the eyes of the few darkeys who vent "bobbin' around" with the show. )f course the time occupied in grinding ut the note made the measure slow, Lnd the monkeys had frequently to take rest on their tails until the next was brced out. Poor monkeys, where was )arwin? There was a dilapidated, sad yed woman in the piocession, but vhether she had an interest in the busi Less or was attracted by the dolorous trains, we could not learn. The mildness of the winter is attribu ed to the absence of spots on the sun. he connexion of splar spots and terres rial temperature seems to be now well stablished. The man in the moon, vho has so long held the office of clerk f the weather, will be forced to resign a a short time, and the spotted man of e sun will be eluted in his place. ince the above was written the wea her has turned much colder. A big lack pimple on the left side of the potted man's nose has just come in iew, and is presumed to intercept the olar rays for a considerable time. 1ok out for cold weather. Men who vish to sell their overcoats better wait ,little while longer. We have heard fa citizen who being lulled into se nrity by the mildness of the weather, nd having no special acquaintance 'ith the spotted man and his tricks, old his cloak last week. We sincerely ity him. We turn him over to the ender mercies of IR. F. Phifer, who nder the peculiar circumstances may eli him one below cost. WELL DONE-The farmiers of liw erry County have shown themselves rise in planting so largely of small rains. They have profited by past sperience, and their determination to ke a step in advance will be strength ned when they begin to realize the reat advantages which will result from bountiful supply of oats, wheat arnd arley. They deserve "well done," and 7i receive it and more, for they will ealize largely in a pecuniary way. If ey will only follow up these crops ith a liberal planting of corn this pring, then their prosperity will be re. They will become independent gy having the food at home which here fore they have been forced to buy. Ve congratulate the farmers of New erry on the prospect ahead of them. hey have passed through a fiery fur ace, which has consumed many past rrors, and refined, purified and en ghtened by hard experience they are a condition now to recuperate and >ok up. Better times are coming, riends, and we trust that general pros ~erity will result. FIRE AT PROSPERIrY.-On Wednes av morning last, the store house of lessrs. Bowers, Wheeler & Co. was dis overed to be on fire, and there being o appliances at hand to fight so terri le a foe, the building and contents rere entirely and rapidly consumed. ~rom what we learn, it was the work Ian incendiary. There had been no ne sleeping in the stoite for two or [ree nights preceding the fire, which ct evidently was known and taken .dvantage of, and the night before win tows and doors were carefully barred ud locked as usual, but after the alarm vas given and the citizens arrived on be spot, it was discovered that one of be doors wvhich fastened from the inside ith bars, on being pushed, was found ~pen, evidently showing that some one ad been inside, There was an insur nce on house and stock amounting to 4,000. No clue as yet has been found o implicate the guilty ones, but that hey will be found out is certain, Fol owing so soon the terrible crime at omaria, we wonder at the boldness nd audacity of this act. It is fearful o contemplate the lawlessness rioting n the land, and it shows that the slow ustice of the courts does not deter it. he town of . Prosperity has* passed brough much trouble, and the sym athies of ti1is community are extended o its citizens. We omitted to mention that the total oss was about $'7,000 in goods and >uilding, besides the loss of Government >roperty used in the Post Office depart nent which was in the same building. LATER.-Five negroes suspected of he above crime have been arrested by nains Canton and Hnhhard, and ABOUT THE ToWN AND COUNTY. The weather is doing its best to do as bad as it can. A fine half-frozen drizzle is dripping from our coat as we go to press. Miller's Almanacs for sale at this of fice. Gardening has commenced. This is the proper time to prune grape vines. The oldest inhabitant avers that mo ney never was so scarce. About twenty persons went from here notwithstanding the scarcity to see Booth in Hamlet. The G. & C. R. R., is beginning to haul up irrepressible guano, and far mers are casting up to see whether they can invest or not. In this issue there are several adver tisements of popular fertilizers-farmers will read and decide what kind they will buy. The strangest thing in the world is that when men are forced to economize, they begin by stopping their County paper and reducing the amount of their church subscriptions. Tobacco, segars, whiskey, &c., are not considered in the light of luxuries which may be dis pensed with. Now is the time to decide between more cotton than corn or more corn than cotton. Which shall it be? Wood-up is the cry of the farmer now when about to start to town. The most favorable accounts -are re ceived of the small grain crops. The mairiage fever L. reviving-sev eral couples have plunged into connu bial bliss this week. They have our congratulations. Nothing but a monkey show has vis ited Newberry in two weeks. What is the matter? Taxes are being paid up promptly and the County Treasurer says receipts keep up with a corresponding period of last year. This is right. There is nothing that adds so much to church service as good singing, but when one half the members of a choir is doing its level best on one tune and the other half is goingit a two-forty rate on another the effect is not pleas ant. Care should be observed in seeing that each member has the same book, or at least the same tune. Our Mollohon Clothier will never for get his hunting experience on the coast. He thinks bird hnnting the best sport in the world. If he could only get a bird occasionally he would be all right. Citizens are beginning t9>complain of the market, or rather of the irregular supply of meat. Some days there is a super-abundance, and on other days none at all. . If a man's f:anily is not butchers take a notion to kill they must not expect meat when they want it. Look out meat purveyors. "Go out, young man, she's not here," said a Pennsylvania preacher last Sun day, in the midst of his sermon, to a youth whom he saw standing hesitating ly in the doorway.. That preacher would have had a good time had he been at one of our Churches last Sunday night. About forty young men were looking for some one inside. They have been shockingly raised. Several fruit trees are in bloom, and t is feared that the fruit crop will be a failure this year. Such a misfortune will be greatly deplored, The partnership existing between eo. G. Lane and S. P. Boozer, has een dissolved. Mr. Lane will continue he business and we wish him large mecess. Orders for Books and Stationery promptly filled at the HEEALD .Book Store.
