In this establishment everything in the 1 line of China, Glass, Crockery, Wood, Tin and Iron Ware, Fancy Articles and labor saving contrivances that the im agination of the liveliest housekeeper -tt can conceive of are to be found. And b one of the chief attractions is that in ir consideration 6f the hard times a person L with limited means can be dccommo dated so satisfactorily that he will be U almost forced to believe that the times C are not so hard after all. 10-tf.

Foot, has presented us with ti some unleavened bread, made in ac- s< cordance with the law of the Jewish yL festival of Pesach or Passover, the two o. first days of which were the 9th and ti 10th. This period embraces eight days, al the two last days being the 15th and N 16th. t_____ A correspondent of a Northern paper tc asked the editor to- use his influence to u induce the Legislature to pass a law ti forbidding the girls to marry before they fc are -twenty-five years old. Uie stands aghast at such a proposition and will h have nothing more to do with his crusty a1 correspondent. Suppose, old fellow, you t come down to Newberry; you will no g doubt find a good field for your exer- t tions; the young ladies will receive you a with open arms-fire-arms. lt The American ladies have the smallest si feet. The Graphic boas(s of it. A well f< proportioned foot is a great beauty. We l should, however, not.forget that feet a are made to walk on 'and not to be E squeezed into Chinese moulds, just to e be seen at an evening party. Our young ti ladies, of course, never torture their si feet, it is only the young men who try ii to run a No. 9foot into aNo. 6boot; a and we are informed that they succeed a sometimes. ____ CoMING BAC.-The friends and ad- t rmirers of the Rev. J. Hawkins, lately stationed in Maryland, will be pleased a to learn that he will return to this State " once more, and is even now on his way ~ hither, as he is looked for about the 17th a inst. He has accepted a call to take 1l charge of St. Andrews, Blue, and High Hill Churches, in the lower part of d Lexington County. We hope to have e the satisfaction of seeing him in New berry at an early date, and welcome him back to South Carolina. y EPUTBUCAN CONVEN'ION.-The del- * egates from the various Townships met in the Court House on Saturday last, ad after an exciting and stormy ses- d si which lasted the entire day, elect- c ed H. C. Corwin, Thos. Keitt and B. B. F Boozer, to attend the State Convention which met in Columbia to-day, Tues- 2 day, for the purpose of choosing a re- f presentation to the National Convention a in Cincinnati, on the 12th of June next. j With the exception of unlimited noise i and confusion the meeting terminated y peaceably. _____f PERSONAL.-Mr. C. P. Pelham, the 5 vigorous editor of the Columbia Regis- C t,er, was in town a few days ago. Major Logan,.travelling agent for the f NTews and Courier, dropped in on Tues- I day last. He is on a canvass for his ' excellent paper. The Rev. Manning Brown, presiding C elder of this District, graced our sanc- F tumn on Wednesday last. We were pleased to see here on Sat- s urday last, the Rev. J. P. Smeltzer, F President of Newberry College. He a filled the pulpit of the Rev. H. W. e .Kuhns on the Sabbath.

Linard, shipping clerk at G. & C. R. c t, office has furnished us with the fol- t >wing comparative statement of cotton o bipments from this point: From Sept., b 874 to April, 1875, total number of e ales, 23,703, and from Sept., 1875 to 1; .pril, 1876, 19,381, showing the large v ifference of 3,322 bales. a A GOOD IDEA.-It is suggested that ie G. & C. Railroad reduce fare for a d eriod of two or three months, by sell- t ig round trip tickets for half price. If ns were done, the company would t iake a good thing out of it. Hundreds f people who would not otherwise - ave home would take advantage of ich an opportunity, and the cars would e filled regularly. The South Carolina ilroad might do the same. Some iing of this kind would stir up the eople, and, we think, help business enerally. - The bottom has at length been reached s id there is a fearful tumble, but for- s inately nobody is hurt, as will be seen v V referring to the attractive and highly tj lteresting advertisement of McCreery. ove & Co., which appears in the col- s, ans of the HERALD. Instead of the 1 tastrophe proving injurious to the 0ople, it has proved a great blessing r dry goods can be had now at half v ie price they were held at a few months c ick. If no more harm comes of it d ian this, let a few more bottoms fall it. it h THE NEW BARBER SHo.-Public N cpectation has been on tip toe for some me as to when the new tonsorial es- 0 .blishment of Tobias Dawkins would t, finished and thrown open to his ad- ti iring friends and anxiously waiting, S istomers.. We are at length happy in ie privilege of announcing that the d ?ening will take place on this Wed- " ,sday, forenoon, and that the first ap licant for manipulation will have th C entennial shave or trim which will u ititle him to the privilege of visiting Le Centennial at Philadelphia, good rI atil the close of the Exhibition. sl e Y. M. C. ASSOcATION.-We ac rowledge- receipt of a circular from d h ie committee of the Young Men's V hristian Association, giving notice of Convention to be held in Columbia, i the 18th inst., and an invitation to ie different Churches of this place to s mnd two delegates from their number. " accordance with this the young men t) ithis town of the various tienomina-t ons are invited to meet on Friday a fernoon at the office of Messrs. r oorman & Schumpert and appoint ree delegates, and send their names SMr. A. J. Dodamead, corresponding a Lember, who will provide homes for ~ iem. The fare on the G. & C. R. R., b wr delegates will be three cents a mile. a .Si HyEEAL.-WedneSday last was the g ippy occasion of a double wedding. id the interest manifested gave proof tat the fair brides, as well as the cooms, were held in high esteem. Inb te one in which Mr. W. E. Pelham id Miss Carolina Brantley Leavell e iok upon themselves the marital re- t yonibilities, the ceremony was per- t armed in the Baptist Church, before a I xrge audience of pleased friends and h mirers. The vows of Mr. Percy c rown and Miss Rosa Jones were offer i at the home altar in the presence of 6 ie bride's mother and relatives and a dect circle of friends. Both of thesed teresng ceremonies were performed Sabout the same time and before the rival of the; morning train, upon d !hich they each embarked for the first -ip of the life voyage. May their days be as bright as the d spicious morn on which they were red, and the disappointments of life e rhich are incident to human flesh be u ways chased away by their mutual t Bilious headaches, or such as arise from a 14 isordered condition of the stomach and liv r, usually affect one aide of the head, most >mmonly over one eye, and increasing to C i acute and often throbbing painr&ten ac mpanie'd with feelings of sickness and g miting, producing langUOr and depression ~ spirits.

ToM THUMB AND SUITE. fewberry is to be made glad by a visit rom these distinguished little people ox t ext Wednesday, the 19th, and we re >ice with them, old and young, big andt ttle, and especially the little ones, with rhose sympathies we more keenly andl eelingly enter. It is about thirty years ince we had the pleasure of seeing the eneral, who was then quite a youth nd unmarried, and we remember thet irore which he created and the wonder roduced by his diminutive coach. Whatt ist be the. attraction now that he is ttended by a brilliant retinue, the prin ipal features of which are his accom lished little wife and sister-in-law',t liss Minnie Warren. Do not fail to e them either at one or both of their leasing entertainments. To show the ppreciation in which they, are held lsewhere, we copy an extract from the t ~eelong Advertiser, Australia, as fol- t Seldom have wve seen the streets more rowded than they were on Saturday ifternoon. A stranger gaging down a 1oorabool street would have thought fi hey were watching for the approach of heDk fEibrh rsm te oy puersonage,inurgh, of som otherir -oa)eroage, Hunesated o usie >erf' ormel Hudeds th ited Gutside t ndack'ladies tosend and ltke Gfeer ; patdi theaies miiuesn anakheir n s The State vs. Sultan, F, Abram -nd thers, for others for shooting a setting Lirkey in pure cussedness. The trial fthis interesting case came off at Chain ers-Cotton Exchange-on Thursday vening before Judge J- S-, late 7 elevated to the Bench. The State ras ably represented by P. Sampson nd A. Burr, Esqs., ard the defence by B. Jeenies, Esq. His Honor, on be ig escorted to his seat and the jurors uly sworn, opened the case by saying, int we as a people "sit on the ragged dge" of things generally, and that par cularly was the case in hand one of ie raggedest, and for pure cussedness ad no precedent in any books in his brari. This court, said his Honor, was ifferent from all other courts-even iat round the corner over the grocery tore-that it was not a cow case, but ne which related to a turkey, and that ny one in court who said turkey except i accordance with his ruling-which ould all be against the prisoners ould be served with rules which rork any way he minded, and more to ie same effect, when permission was iven to the State to.open. Mr. Sanip n, who had been standing on his left Mg with his back against the door jam, nickly let down his right leg and con onted the prisoner Sultan, who shook rith fear or suppressed laughter we uld not tell which. for one of the an ience intercepted the view by rising to a estion of privilege and requesting that is pipe be filled from the box near by. Ve omitted to state that Abram turned tate's evidence against Sultan, and that f the other offenders-one had taken le cars for Augusta to avoid prosecu on, and the other had intrenched him lf on the northwest side of Scott's reek in defiance of the law. The evi ence elicited by the State from the itness Abrams was mixed, by reason iat His Honor and the Solicitor both [arged him to hold his horses well i hand and say nothing but that which rould tend to criminate the prisoner. 'he witness, during the examination, semed to be suffering under some motional inwardness, and frequently oubled up till his head almost touched is knees, while his hands clutched ner ously at his diaphragm. Want of space prevents us from giv ig the evidence of this witness, which, affice it to say, bore against the priso er all the time. During the exatmina on by Mr. Jeemes, the witnesses' at tks of inwardness were more marked nd his face was much distorted, appa mntly from spasms, all of which seemed affect His Honor, as well as counsel, ny and the court generally. It was fecting-particularly when Mr. Jeemes sked him if as a hunter he had ever agged anything-the point being that s a grocery dealer he was much more icesful in beging rice, coffee. &c.,, ian as a hunter in the bagging of birds. Examination closed-Mr. Sampson rent for the jury in his usual impetuous ut forcible manner-the points of his eech being that Sultan was a fer igner, and had no right to come to this ntry and shoot turkeys, wild or tame; t this was a 'white man's country; iat our right to turkeys was estab shed when George Washington fiashed is sword over the head of the Ameri n Eagle. That it was a tame turkey, setting hen turkey at that, with twenty ye eggs; that the killing of that turkey eprived us of twenty-six turkeys, and iat next Christmas there would be veral dinners without the usual roast ird. He drew a gloomy picture of the istress on that usually festive occasion, ad it was observed that the jury had 1eir hands up to their eyes vainly en eavoring to shut it out from their sight. :vidntly the jury were overcome, the d men Uncle Burt and Col. Lip were nable to suppress their emotion, even e witness Abrams had another attack f inwardness, which got down into his ags. And the Judge was observed to te out his bandanna. There was no hiance for Sultan. L. B. Jeemes, Esq., 'then took the .oor feeling that his task was a forlorn pe, but nothing daunted, he hitched p his breeches-and made an able argu ient, claiming that his client was not a >reigner, though born in Georgia; that His father had font at Banker Hill Twelve Injans his mother had slain; .ud his brothers, William and .John and Jim, Had sailed over the raging main;" nd therefore he had a perfect right to [boot turkeys whether wild or tame; iat- it was not clearly establbshed by 2e witness that the prisoner killed the .arkey; that he was no shot on the ring; that it was the fault of the dog rho set the setting turkey; and much lse that was indisputable, but all to o purpose. At the conclusion of this rument, lie again hitched up his cousers-having unfortunately left his apenders at home-and reclined on a ibe. The State closed with a clincher, rhen His Honor pulled down his vest -having the idea that he is growing orpulent-and charged the jury that bis was a peculiar case, pecviliarly bad, peculiar court, and he a peculiar uge; and that the accused was an .npecunious foreigner, in proof of which e would bet his bottom dollar, and if :iev did not render a verdict of guilty Liey would catch something peculiarly gly. He was not a man to be fooled rith,,had been there himself, knewv all bout it, had seen Josh Billings, had no ear of higher courts or of being im leached, intended gomng to the Centen ll, was down on any man who said bis was not a court in which justice ould be had, &c. It would have been trange if under these circumstances casant witness, equally as criminal as the. other, plead guilty and asked for mercv. His sentence was segars for the audience. It is recorded with sorrow that neither fine has been paid. There is a rumor out that the Judge is to be impeached. THIE IION. ALEXANDER 11.

Farim and garden operations will commence now with renewed activity. As this is the light of the moon all seeds of vegetables which yield their fruit out of the ground may now be sown. A Mollohon farmer reports his sec tion looking up and building hopes on the Japan and Chufa peas. The loss of the blackberry crop does not disturb them much now. An invitation to go up and try the Chufa after a week's boiling is accepted, provided our fami ly physician is included in the invita tion. Wednesday last was a gala day. There were two weddings, both in the orning, the happy couples in the first flush of their new relation taking the train for the mountains, not of Hepsi (lam where the lion roareth, but to the pleasanter region where the turtle dove singeth its love song. The number of bachelors out on the occasions alluded to above wvas refresh ing, giving evidence that they apprecia ted the situation. Pelham & Wardlaw have been im proving the appearance of their drug store by the application of fresh paint. t looks vastly better in its new and eat colored dress. Our whistling friend has pulled up his city stakes and removed to the coun try, where he will engage in the pleas ant pastime of digging. He will continue to cultivate the noble art of whistling. A Concert is on the tapis, proposed to be given by the young ]adies of the Feiale Academy. Tuesday last was the dullest day ever experienced in the HERALD office-no body wanted anything. Do not overlook the opportunity of fered by Mr. DuPre, of Abbeville, of getting rare and beautiful flowers. His prices are very low. Any order sent to this. office will be forwarded with pleasure. If you want anything done in the way of repairing furniturn or any fancy work done neatly and expeditiously, go to Mr. 0. M. Harris' shop. He can do anything that any other man can do, besides many things other men cannot That choice lot of mackerel in barrels lately opened by Mr. M. Foot is out the bottom was reached a few days ago much to everybody's regret. If any >ther dealer has good mackerel let hita make the fact known or forever after hold his peace. Every copy of the HERALD is printed a a cost, and yet there are people who sil1 persist in asking for a copy just for nothing. It is common too to ask for a bundle of exchange papers as if they were not worth a price also. The un kindest cut of all, however, is the prac tice of borrowing the County paper from a paymng subscriber. It not only injures the subscriber but cheats the printer. Fift-two large, well filled, hand somafy printed papers are furnished for only $2.50 a year. Think of it and sub scribe. The bcst time to advertise is when times are dull, this is given up by the shrewdest business men. Now is the time too to have your job printing done, when prices are down. These are facts. As' money is sc arce we recommend the plan adopted in Howell Co., Mo., of making cows ia circulating medium and using calves as small change. If this is adopted we inight have a little beef occasionally. Mr. Tryon, the fire extinguisher agent from the house of P. P. Toale, of Chrleston, spent several days here last week, and we indulge the hope that he has made arrangements with the town for a large and wholesome apparatus. Housekeepers are to be pitied now, for they are at their wits ends in trying to get inateriatl to make dinners. They are making the best of the situation, however, and it is gratifying to say that they generally get up something. Three months of Leap year are gone, and no report yet of a single lady hav ing taken advantage of the privilege. In the absence of news items the im agination is forced into active play to make up this department. Why don't our friends- send in what they know. Poultry is extremely scarce in this market and so are eggs-farmers are cordially invited to bring in supplies and help the town people in their ex trmiy Itremity, edtatM~ ane ~ n .- ,-,tail iba M/ Anks was We learn through the "Age" that chicken thieves are up and doing. Five pet pullets pulled from pedestal pri vately. And also that the Newberry Silver Cornet Band has been revived, the members being principally blowers from the good town of Helena, in which pla(ec the band does most of its prac ticing. We trust they will "stand the storin" better than the old band, and that "it won't be very long" till they favor the city of Newberrv with some delicious music.

The nervous, weakly invalid does not en joy life, but merely "drags out existence," as the phrase is. Unfitted for the active pur suits of life, and incapable of partaking of its oleasures, to which health alone can give a zest; disinclined to social intercourse, and a prey to melancholy, the valetudinarian is in deed an object of pity. Yet there is nothing in all this that cannot be remedied by that genial alterative tonic and nervine, Hostet ter's Stomach Bitters, which supplies. defi cient stamina, braces the nervous system, and overcomes those bodily irregularities to which nervous weak-ness is most frequently attributable. Diseases of the kidney and bladder, imperfect digestion and uterine troubles are fertile sources of debility. Their eradication, however, becomes a matter of certainty when Hostetter's Stomach Bitters are systematically used for that purpose. The Bitters likewise annihilate and prevent fever and ague and other debilitating febrile complaints of a malarial nature. ,14-4t. Commercial.
