TAX ErrFsION.-We take pleasure in-informing such of our readers as have not yet been able to pay their taxes that they will have until the first of April to do so, and until which time no penalty will attach. This no doubt will afford great relief, and we feel under obliga tion to the gentleman who telegphed from Columbia to this effect, and in time for this issue of the paper. We'congratulate our neighbor of the Laurensville Herald that he has been able to associate with him in the editor shipof that sterling paper, Col. J. W. THE REV. H. W. KUHs.-We learn that this gentleman left Newberry on Monday last for a visit to Omaha. the scene of his former labors. A short time will be spent there, when he will visit Pennsylvania, and then return af ter an absence of about one month. We have not heard as yet who will occupy his pulpit during this time, but we are satisfied that he will be much missed. We wish him a pleasant and safe trip out and back, improved in health and spirits. A SWEET SouND.-In this week's issue Newberry's old friend, J. H. Ki nard of Columbia, makes the acceptable and anxiously looked for announcem4ent of his spring opening, and with calicoes, dress goods and homespuns down to almost nothing. It is a pleasant sound' ,'everything down. the effect of which will touch the heart like the sweet chimes of softest jingle bells. Calicoes down! Think of it, ladies, how many more yards can now be tucked in and frilled up in your dresses. We might write a column on this interesting sub ject, but our lady readers know how it is.

The enter prise of these gentlemen is indeed worthy of special mention and should receive the favor of the entire press. THE HON. ALEXANDER H.

Fox Hr.-'Twas Rory O'Moore who saidthere:wasluck in odd numbers, and in full confidence of such virtue, a party of eleven started from town on Friday night on a fox hunt. Hope ran high, the dogs ran fine, the horns blew musically and the moon shone brightly, never before did hunters start more auspiciously, and en they dashed over hill and dale, men, horses, dogs. It was ~ry when they ~siarted an~Ifthey had te night before them, and they all felt that "hours were made for slaves, but nightethe time for~ you and I, boys." And on they rode, miles ran into other miles, minutes ran into hours, but foxes seemed scarce; occasionally a rabbit frightened from its..bed - would jump across their~path and gi~ve the dogs a run. The moon rose higher, as the spirit of the party sank lower, the shadows lengthened as did their faces, and the tails of the dogs hung lower and showed disposition to get between their legs, and the horns dangled down neglected and silent. Somewhere be yond the time when graveyards yawn, one after another of the eleven began to yawn too, and the conclusion was ar rived at that odd numbers might be lucky undercertame ircumstances,wihen it was voted to turn tail and return home. 'Tis a pity, but 'tis true, the pty came back tired and bedraggled, horses fagged and dogs somewhat worse for the run, but no fox was caught. Perhaps it was not the right time in the moon and too soon after the eclipse. CH AI.UnGE.-We have never heard that snoring was entitled to merit or that any good could come of it, but that on the contrary it was a habit to be de plored, and that those accused of it always bitterly. denied the soft impeach ment. But strange to say, in these lat Iter days, "snoring tilts," like "spelling bees," are claiming attention. Newberry has never been much famous except in pigeon shooting, or an occasional small dog fight, or centennial beef, or other xinall things until now, when it is dis eovered that we have a man in our midst who can ontsnore creation, good brother P. of - affectionate memory, Daniel Lambert or anybody else. He says he can wake the seven sleepers, and is a terror to his landlord, who for tun:ately Is deaf and does not get the full benefit of his nightly performances, gives the nightmare to all the ladies in the house, and were it not that Wins low's soothing syra pis attainable would keep the children awake all night. Yes, we have that man here, and if ever we were proud of anything it is of this. He begs- us to offer challenge to the world that he can outsnore any one on a si: hours stretch. Sealed communi catin adressed to "Snorer," HERALD The Exeenution of Thompson. Thompson, one of the murderers of Mr. H. D. Reid, who suffered the ex treme penalty of the law on Friday last, was, perhaps, as the sequel will show, one of the most notorious crimi nals on record, a capitulation of whose crimes will be new and startling to the readers of this paper. The differ eut accounts given in the Columbia papers- lack in many features of the case. No mention has been made of HIS ATTEMPT TO ESCAPE two nights before the hanging. On Thursday morning it was discovered that with a couple of files which had been surreptitiously given him be had severed-his manacles, and with a murderous knife. or dagger he stood prepared either to cu't his way out or perish in the attempt, in this, however, he was foiled. In view of the fact that he had professed willingness to die, and even impatience, for the end, and declared that he felt his sins were pardoned, it seems strange that he could have HARBORED ANOTHER MURDER. - and it creates a doubt that his penitence was sincere. Early Friday morning, the Revs. Fair, Kuhns and Pritchard, who had been regular in their minis trations, visited him for the last time and gave him the last consolations in their power. When asked by the latter why if ready and willing to die he had contemplated escape and another crime, he answered that that was no time for such talk. His answers to the curious who visited him on that morning were short and impatient, showing that hQ was annoyed. About 12 o'clock, Sheriff Carrington with a small guard led the prisoner down to the wagon upon WHICH WAS THE COFFIN, and on which he took his seat with as much coolness as if he had been going to take a pleasure ride, and the small cavalcade, escorted by crowds of people hungry'for a,sight of the criminal, who leisurely smoked a cigar, marched from the jail to the gallows. On ascending it, NOT A TREMOR OR SIGN OF EMOTION was exhibited-in fact, he seemed to be possessed with a spirit of dogged indif ference, which some called bravery, and-a sign that be was game-. And to give another proof that:. he was not scared and would be game to the last, before making his address to the mul titude he drew on a pair of white cotton gloves and threw away his still lighted cigar, and thus spoke: "My friends, I am about to die, but I hope to meet you around the throne in Heaven," and a few other words to the same effect, and then read the following written CONFESSION: I, W. R.. Thompson, do hereby ac knowledge and confess that I, myself, did shoot and kill Mr. Hayne D. Reid, at Pomaria, on the night of December 24. 1875, and then robbed the safe and burned the store. In my cool moments in my cell I wrote out a full confession of the whole transaction, and have placed the document in the hands of my counsel. I do now, in my last moments of life, solemnly affirm that the confes sion then made is correct. The confes sion which I made to Mr. Holloway and others, in which innocent parties are1 blamed, is not correct. I ask their par don, and only implicated them in the hope of clearing myself. There was but one other with me when the crime was committed. I have been tried and convicted. My trial was fair, and my sentence just. The court and jury have done their duty, and I have no hard feelings against them nor any one else. I wish to return my thanks to Mr. John stone and the sheriff and the keepers of the prison and to the ministers of the gospel, who have pointed me and di rected me to Jesus. I now warn you all against all sin., and against following my example. And I caution my own race especially against doing anything dishonest, un just and sinful. I ask that the commu nity at large do not look down upon my family for the evil deeds that I have done, nor connect them with my scan dal. I ask the pity of my fellow men liv ing-the forgiveness of Mr. Reed who1 is dead-and the pardon of my God and Savior. (Signed) W. R. THOMrSON. Prayer then being offered by Mr.1 Kuhns, the Sheriff proceeded with his1 work, and while doing so the prisoner asked him if he thought the FALL WAS SUFFICIENT TO BREAK ~HIS NECK, and on being answered that it was] three and a half feet, he hoped that he would not be suffocated. A few minutes after the fatal drop was made. His struggles were few, but it was evi dent that he died fromn strangulation, for after hanging 36 minutes. Dr. Gar., many found that there was still life. At the expiration of 42 minutes, life was extinct, and five minutes later the body was laid in its coffin, and thus ended the life of THIS HARDENED CRIMINAL. 1 It is worthy of mention that not much over half the number of people who were here on the previous day had as sembled on this occasion, and that a1 large number of these turned away and left the scene before the last act in the1 dramsi was consummated. And now follows a HISTORY OF A LIFE FULL OF CRIME, a tithe of which entitled him to the fate which so tardily overtook him, and] which we have gathered from responsi ble ge ntlemen, who learned this secret chapter in his career from his own lips, a recital of which he requested should not be made public until after his death. These facts are as follows, and first in miles from Augusta, one in Florida, and two at Pomarta-those of Messrs. Hipp and Cannon-exclusive of that -in which the-late horror was committed. Next follows TIE HORSES STOLEN, twenty or more, viz: nine in Barnwell, three in Orangeburg, three in Ander son, two or three in Florida, one or two in Dailington, and others elsewhere, and with all this, as one suggests while we write, ONLY ONE HANGING. He also stated in this confession that he had brokenjail twice in connection with others, was sent to the Penitentiary for ten years, but had been pardoned out by Gov. Scott, and had two living wives. These facts MAY BE RELIED ON, and are not mere idle reports-of which there are many afloat-and were fur nished, as before stated, by gentlemen of veracity. In further connection with the history of this black tale of horrors, it is stated that he flied the shot, and the only one fired, which killed Mr. Reid, and that his accomplice now in jail-whose name is withheld-had the part assigned to him of making a noise at the depot close by, and which at tracted the attention of the victim, who, as he appeared at the door of his store, was fired upon by Thompson, aim be ing made at his white shirt front. After this Thompson fled, but returned and peeping in, found that Reid was dead. He then rifled his pockets, found the 9afe key and .took out the money and went out, when the other was met and the money counted. Again he visited the store, and this time set fire to it by piling some fat splinters on the mantel piece and igniting them. We attach but little 'importance to the asser tion that he and one other only engaged in this cold-blooded murder, and only give it for what it is worth. That the county is rid of a hardened wretch we feel greatly rejoiced, and it is to be hoped that if the others now awaiting trial are proven guilty that they will share his well-merited fate. NICELr- FITTED UP.-The re-occu pation of the old gallery by Mr. W. H. Wiseman, was a wise step, and we are pleased to say that he has so occupied his leisure time since moving in, in fit ting it upi that it looks like another place. That he is in the proper posi tion now cannot be doubted, and fur ther, that he is fully prepared for work and can give satisfaction in his pictures no one can dispute. The delightful Spring weather is the best time for sit tings, and the reader is advised to give him a call. ABOUT THE TOWN AND~ COUNTY. The weather is all right. Farmers have the best opportunity ifforded in the fine weather for outside work that the oldest inhabitant can re nember. It will be their fault then if they fail ;o be prepared. We learn that corn has already been planted, and we dread next to hear that irmers are going for cotton in the old extravagant way. Some predict that more cotton will > planted this year than the last. We lon't believe it, and Cite one instance of a sensible man who has all of his -land not laid out for orn, down in oats, with the exception >f a small patch which he will plant in 3heatham cotton. The days are getting longer now md more work can be done Italian fiddlers and harpists have nade the streets of Newberry resound ith music, but never until the last week have we beeii blessed with an rican street fiddler-and blind be ides. His style is peculiarly his own. The dust and wind of last Tuesday was very March-like. Impeachment is the order of the day ow, and to be in the fashion we intend o get up a first class impeachment case loon. The school boy's headache comes on bout 12 o'clock now, and permission go home instantly cures. Whether he prospect of kite flying has anything do with the cure is an open question. That there is some reason for the cry f hard times cannot be denied. But fthe inen who have money would only ay their debts the situation would be astly better. Where has the money one to? It cannot be that all of it has eft the country. Gardeninmg seems now to be in order, ud small seed are being put into the ~round with considerable vim. Do not forget that there is a job press. ud a first rate job printer wvaiting to ~xecute all kinds of work with neatness nd despatch.

When a man is too lazy to work, he s pretty apt to say that the country is nuined. With a large and luxuriant oat field, ~ourteen fat calves, soon to be increased -n tw~ntv in number. fat mules, and I an invitationito visit him and make an occular examination. We are much better now, andlfeel that all is not yet lost. Still It would add much to our happiness if a few of those little amounts due were paid in, a burden would be lifted, and The reader would be benefitted in an improved condition of the HERALD, there would be better editorials, spicier locals, and this department wotld be much fuller. An unpaid, editor who has to feed on air, is as well qualified for his duties as is the average boarder for work who is fed on hotel hash. Willing to wound, yet afraid to strike, they hint a fault and hesitate dislike. If any of the readers of the HERALD are guilty of this fault we trust they will mend their ways. Talking of mending, minds us that there was a man, with a red goatee, in town last week, who dispensed a ne plus ultra glue which would mend any thing but a broken hearted man or wo man. The pigeon shooters tried their skill last Wednesday on partridges-the Mollohon champion bagged two and a robin. The other was unsuccessful. When a communication is signed fictitiously it may be assumed that the writer wishes to withhold his name.' In that case the editor is not at liberty to give it. - The man with carpet shoes on was out by sun up on Friday, but whether, he was in search of beef~or to get a good position to see the hanging is not known. It was unfortunate that the eclipse of the moon came off so late in the night. But The star of Newberry is In the ascend ant and shines by day-Flying Trapeze, a portable or travelling candy shop, and a glue merchant. These were successes, but The minstrel show didn't show worth a cent, and perhaps it was fortunate, somebody might have been foolish enough to invest a quarter. There was an unusual excitement on the street the other afternoon. Every body was looking up, and naturally the local reporter looked up also, and dis coered smoke issuing from one of the Hotel chimneys. Soon the interest con entrated on Baltimore Corner, think ing that Pool had moved his smoke down there the local looked again and discovered th.e attraction to be a kite. The people must have something to amuse them. How a man can grow fat these hard times is a matter of surprise; no less strange than true though a prominent dry goods man is thickening up amaz ingly. The number of people in town on Friday was not more than half as many as came to see .the hanging on the day first appointed. The owner of the Flying Trapeze says tat he turns the crowd, while the-coughi andy man sweetens it, and the glue muan sticks it. Some evil disposed persons amused temselves the other~ night by lifting gates. Several citizens complain that heir gates were lifted from their hinges ad carried off. This is the very poor est kind of fun, and the perpetrators eserve rough handling. An individual asked another for oney on Friday last, and was told that e had none, and to prove it drew forth an empty pocket book. Let me have the pocket book then, said No.. 1, and t was handed to him. Not being able o get the money he took th'e next thing o it-thinking no doubt that the scent f greasy greenbacks hung about it still. Strange to say there was but one ap plication in this department on Friday last for an'Almanac-the applicant was an old colored lad?y. Miller's 1875 sat isfied her. Our Alligator is a very abstemious reature living entirely on air. It shows n appreciation of the situation. We stop the press to announce the arrival of the Georgia negro Minstrels. Lhey are parading the streets at this oment under the pressure of brand ew beavers upon their brows and with nelodious brass to their lips. NEwSAPERS.-Daniel Webster said: Small is the sum that is required to atronize a newspaper, and well re arded is the patron, I care not how umble or unpretending the gazette which he takes. It is next to impossible tofill 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 upply him with a newspaper. I well emember what a marked difference there was between those of my school ates who had and those who had not cess to newspapers. Other things being equal, the first were always superior to the last in debate, composi tion and intelligence. tf ARIvALs AT POOL's HOTEL, Jiles Chapman, Edgetield; J. D. Endd, Texas; F. A.

One of our most estimable citizens may be thankful for the introduction of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup, for its timely use has saved his life. Prompt Reinforcenent. When the physical energies are overtasked or flag through weakness or disease, they need prompt reinforcement. Renewed vigor is most speedily supplied through the me dium of a tonic stimulant, and among medi cinal resources of that class, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters assuredly deserve a pre eminent place. Weakness, whether consti tutional or arising from disease or over fatjgue, cannot be better compensated for than by a resort to this prime strengthening cordial. The enfeebled invalid, the convales cent and the aged and infirm find that it is an unfailing source of vigor and comfort. Its combined tonic and alterative properties also constitute it an invaluable remedy for indi gestion, weakness of the organs of urination, constipation, torpidity of the liver, and many other irregularities and disabilities, and ren der it an invaluable protection against mala ria, as well as disorders of the stomach and bowels. 9-at.
