The Piedmont and Arlington Life Com pany of Richmond, Va., has justly won th( high position it occupies among the leading companies of the country, and as the mosi successtal company of Southern or;gin, musl continue to attract the patronage of all whc sincerely desire the prosperity of our business enterprise?. ~ The business of life insurance is plain and simple when conducted by honorable gentle men. The Piedmont and Arlington has for a number of years conducted business in this State,-it meets every legitimate demand ol its patrons,-no higher praise is needed. The success of the Company should stimulate out people to renewed energy in building up like enterprises throughout the South. 8.ow MESSRs.

REGARDLESS OF COST.--The an nouncement made by Mr. Foot, that he will sell his winter goods regardless of cost is- a new departure which will give satisfaction. We can assure the public that what this gentleman says may be relied on, for when he says bargains, -~- bargains will surely be offered and no mistake. We therefore advise all per sons who have a little cash to spare to - call on him and,~buy woolen goods, blankets and clothing before this favor able opportunity closes. Try it and see *how much can be had for a little cash. The complaint last week of subscri bers failing to get their papers was not intended as a reflection on Mr. Boone, the postmaster, but was made against parties who go to the ofiice and ask for the papers of others, and who either through carelessness fail to deliver them to the rightful owners, or inten tionall1y appropriate them to their own use. The postmaster regarding the man whn calls for a paper in the name PLANT KU KLux.-The prolific char acter of Elkins' Ku Klux Corn, both in grain and fodder, are well known in this section of country, and in fact all over the State, and the longer it is tried the more popular does it become. Mr. Elkins has been planting it now for some time and with great success, and shows many testimonials from those who have tried it. For the benefit of such of our readers who may desire some of this corn we are able to state that it can be obtained of Mr. Eikins at Alston. S. C., at the following prices: One bushel, 84; half bushel, S2; peck, $1.25; half peck, 75c.; two ears, 25c., and one ear for 15c. Orders filled promptly. SCARED.-There was a bear in town last week, a huge fellow,yet accomplish ed and apparently gentle as a lamb, but notwithstanding his warranted docility, his sudden appearance in a gentleman's yard in the neighborhood of Gravel town came near causing the demise of a colored gentleman engaged in the wholesome pastime of cutti'ng wood. No sooner did Bruin enter the premises with Signor Greasyana, his keeper, and came in view of our dusky friend than he dashed down his axe and fled with the fleetness of the wind, clearing sev eral fences which lay in the way. With the exception of a terrific scare and the loss of much wind our wood-chopping friend reached home safely. His pri vate opinion of bears is that they are kin to the prince of darkness. . LANms, LAMPS.-"It has just been decided to light all the waiting and lug gage rooms of the principal railway stations in Paris by means of electricity. Electric lights were recently tried in the immense luggage room, or Salle des Pas Perdus, of the Great Northern station. The experiment proved suc cessful. By working the Graham ma chine with three-horse power as much is obtained as that given by a hundred gas lamps. The electric 1antern is placed at the height of ten metres from the ground, and sheds a soft clear light over an area of 20,000 square feet. The hall situated on the opposite side of the station, where passengers are placed on arriving from Boulogne or Calais, is still larger, for it comprises -an area of 30,000 square feet. Four lanterns, c ie in each corner, suffice to light it up as by daylight." Can't the Town Council get us one of those for the corner of Friend and Cald well streets. A 20,000 square foot ma chine would light everybody and his sweetheart to the churches around the corner. We don't want the biggest one; it might keep the chickens crowing for day all night long. Talking about churches and such, we would remind our readers that there are four kinds of metre, to-wit: Long metre, short metre, common metre and 1 metre by moon light alone. Now, if we could get that lamp all those metres could be sung on the same night even in the dark of the moon. One of those 20,000 footers is equal to Saturn's five moonlights with the Ring thrown in. IPERSOnLu.-The Rev. Z. W. Beden .baugh, of Columbia, paid us a pleasant visit last week, and we were glad to see him looking well. Mr. Herbert Beard, commercial trav eller for the popular Segar House of Perry & Slawson, of Columbia, dropped in on Thursday last. He was about making a raid on the cities of Jalapa, Kinard's, Martin's, Clinton and Lau rens. We are glad that the raid is a charitable one, and that he wants to supply the people with godid segars and tobacco. Mr. 'Jacob Singley was up from Frog perity last week, and reports Chappell's dinner house a success. Mr. J. F. Rawson, the intelligent travelling agent for the popular Music House of Messrs. Ludden & Bates, of Savannah, favored us with a visit on Friday. . Ira B. Jones, Esq., f.rmerly of this place and now profitably and pleasant 1g located at Lancaster, dropped down on us one day last week. Glad to learn that he is doing well. C. P. Pelhamn, Esq., also from Lan caster, and brother of the handsome druggists of Newberry, visited this place on Thursday last. Sergeant James Taylor, of Maj. Stew art's command, on his return from at tendance on the Grand Chapter at Charleston, paid Newberry a brief visit. The Sergeant in common with the rest of Maj. Stewart's boys, have a lively and pleasant recollection of Newberry. ABOUT THE TOWN AND COUNTY. The weather is unsettled. March winds prevailed during a por tion of last week. Stealing a march on time. When it blows again hang up your meat that it may dry-provided there is any to hang up. As this is the season when high winds are in order fires should be looked after carefully. Many other things should be looked after also-the farmer should see that his agricultural implements are all in order and in the places where they' should be. Much valuable time is saved if things are convenient. Think of it, farmers-in time of rest prepare for work. There were a few spasms of activity in business last week-and some goods went off to the satisfactipn of the sellers -havn't heard whether buyers were all pleased or not. The HERALD Book Store is happily supplied with several new and service able articles in the stationery line, be sides many new and interesti o ooks. Tn addition to the above thWt,.iol The number of new subscribers las week and old ones paying up their due was not flatteringly large. We live i hope that next week the number will bi greater. The editor went to Columbia las week and saw Josh Billings, and think. that Josh had a dull gimlet, cr bored it the wrong place, for he didn't "strikt ile." Only one man in the audienc( complained that his sides ached, and h was taking pleurisy. It is best for men not to fly highei than they can roost. Back of the Baltimore Corner .and this side of the barber-shop you may now get an excellent iteal at any time in the day and until lateTit. nigiht fresh fish, plump oysters and elegant sausages. See and taste for yourself, and find how well Mr. Sill can prepare these delicacies. A new shop is springing up near the Post Office, to be oecupied by Tobe Dawkins, the well known expert in the art tonsorial. Between all these bar bers, the Bank and the lawyers, our citizens should not find it difficult to get a shave. Tobe is a good barber and very accommodating. We bespeak for him a fair share of patronage. Three good things, among many oth ers, which can be found at Mr. Foot's popular corner store-are syrup of un approachable sweetness and excellence and over which the children run wild with delight, mackerel of first water and of unusual mildness, and eating potatoes fit for th'e table of a King. There are other articles of equal merit to be found at this store. The scarcity of money is becoming chronic, and several merchants talk about seeking some place where it is more plentiful. Blank Liens of all kinds for sale at this office; by the single copy or by the quire. Whatever you stop in the way of re trenching expenses never stop your County paper. One or two regular readers of the HERALD complain that they will have to subscribe, because the neighbors on whom *they have been loafing their news refuse them the privilege any longer. We are rejoiced to hear this. The nian who borrows a paper of his friend, is a poor neighbor, a non-sup porter 'of one of the most important County institutions, and sets a miserable example to his children if he has any. Spring improvements are commenc ing all around. Mr. J. C. Wilson has given a very happy look to his prem ises. We like to see these evidences of taste. The work of transformation is active ly going on ini Gravel Town. New houses are constantly springing up as if by magic. The tax extension is to the 10th of March-hope everybody will be pre pared by then. On Friday of this we.ek, Thompson, one of the Pomaria murderers, is to be hanged. The same favor should have been shown the others. Pare water is one of the indispensa ble requisites-as a means to this end have your wells cleaned out. Two weeks and no monkey-but in lieu thereof a genuine bear of huge size-whose accomplishments made the outside pleasure seekers of Newberry happy on Friday last. NEWSPAPERs.-Daniel Webster said: "Small is the-sum that is required to patronize a newspaper, and- well re warded is the patron, I care not how humble or unpretending the gazette which he takes. It is next to impossible to fill a sheet with printed matter without putting something into it that is worth the subscription price. Every parent, whose son is away at school, should supply him with a newspaper. I well remember what a marked difference there was between those of my school mates who had and those who had not access to newspapers. Other things being equal, .the first were always. superior to the last in debate, composi tion and intelligence. tf .POST OFFICE, NEwBERRY, S. C., Feb. 19, 1876.

Medication is only successful when it is rational, and it is rational only when it be eins at the beginning. In other words, to cure a malady, its cause must be removed. Weakness,either general or local, is the origin of the great majority of diseases. Reinforce the vitai energies, regulate digestion and se cretion, by strengthening the organs which perform those all-important functions, and dyspepsia, constipation, kidney and bladder complaints, uterine difficulties, impure cir culation, and the thousand and one ailments whbich are the consequences of debility, are completely, and in most cases permanently, removed.
