SINGING CLAsS.-Mis5 Mattie Boyd, familiarly and affectionately known ever the entire County as "Cousin Mat tie," began her session on Monday night with a full class of the young men and maidens of the town. We wish her as many as she can manage, and that each and every pupil may profit by her teaching. ___ LaborKReform Associations are being formed in large numbers in various counties of the State. There are two in the County of Newberry that we have heard from. That there is need of reformin labor as well as in other tinig. there is no question about at all, It is a, prime necessity.

DEMOCRATIC CLur, No. 1, ToWNsHIP 4.-Tbis club held its regular weekly meeting at Mt. Tabor Church Saturday. Thos. S. Moorman, Esq., addressed the meeting in the best and most effective campaign speech we have ever heard. He was listened to attentively by white and colored, and his speech cannot fail to do good. There are in this club 27 colored members; they are working no bly, and are deeply in earnest, as is ev idenced by the fact that they meet every week and many of them have to leave their cotton and ride several miles to the place of meeting; yet most of the -members come out every time. Three cheers for No. 4. Our candidates have gone the grand rounds of the programme laid out by the Executive Committee, the last stump mounted on that programme being at Jalapa, and we have just cause for congratulation that they have la bored faithfully and well, They rest now for a few days to recuperate theirenergies for another tour through the county, and only wait the action of the Committee, which will appoint places and time. At the Court House, in the grove where Hampton had the . pleasure of addressing the thousands of the county, we understand a gather ing will again be made, and a sumptu ous barbecue spread. This will be one of the featuresin the next programme. DEMOCRATIC CLUBS IN NEWBERRY COUr.-Township No. 1-four clubs -J. C. Wilson, J. E. Brown, W. A. Fajaw and J."S.

PROMENADE CONcEIRT.-The ladies of Newberry propose giving a prome nade concert on Monday evening, the 16th. inst., at Temperance Hall, the proceeds of which are to be given to the scourged city of Brunswick, Ga., hundreds of whose inhabitants are now in sorest need of help. This is a most praiseworthy charity, and one which will make direct appeal to the hearts of the people of Newberry,who are so high ly favored as never to have experienced the effect of a visitant so dreadful as yellow fever. The concert will be un der the direction of Mrs. Bailey, and it isto ecss ary to mention her name to ssre hepublic that the programme will ntonly be a good one, but that it will be well carried out. Tickets will be fifty cents. To be had at the store of Mr. L. C. Moore. RELIGIOUS.-The meetings during the past week at Helena were largely attended, and were conducted seyej;ally H. W. Kuhns, T. G. Herbert and C. H. Pritchard. Two accessions were made by the church. As stated before, the meetings were under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. This Association is inde fatigable in its labors, and has been holding weekly prayer-meetings in that town on every Wednesday evening for some time, alternating at the different' residences. In the Methodist Church sun-rise pryer.meetmgg were commeneedk.on Monday, and will be continued through the entire week. Next week services will be held in the same church every etening at candle light, and the Revs. Coke Smith and J. W. Dickson, of Co lumbia, are expected to takes part ~ the exercises. THE REPUBLICAN CoUNTY CONVEN -rhON.-ThiS Convention met in the Qiitas Friday mordixag, the 6th instant, After squabbling over the coni tesed delegations fiom 11 o'cl9ckCA.M. till past -iiidnight, during whieh time the fortunate delegates werentertained and edified by_ the wisdom and elo quence of the party lights, the doors were opened to the public. The nomi nations were made, and then began the tag of war. The contest between the carpet-bag party and their opponents was very close, but the carpet-baggers were victorious, so far as to seceme the nominations-securing the offices will be quite a different and independent matter. There is evidently much dis satisfaction among some of the most in fluential colored men at the result of the nomination; they see that the prime and moving object of the carpet-bagger is office, and only office continually. No ticket that could be made up in this Cour.ty would be easier to beat, and we expect and intend to beat it largely. The nominations are as follows: For the Senate-H. C. Corwin. For the House of Representatives Thos. Keitt, W. H. Thomas and S. S. Bridges, all colored. For Sheriff-J. J. Carrington. For Clerk of Court-T J. Clayton, -LIBERTY HALT.. 800 wHITES AND 200 COLORED. ENTITUSIASTIC MEETINGS. THE FIRE BLAZING. On Tuesday last by regular ap pointm ent the Democratic County Can didates met the citizens of Liberty Hall at Duckett's School House, and gandi dates and people being all euthused it is not strange that a good time was had. At an early hour in the morning the whole county seemed to be in motion men, women and children making their way to the spot of meeting-and it was indeed gratifying to see in the crowd a plentiful sprinkling of colored men, who came out to hear the truth about the matter and to take advice as to their future course-for they evidently see that their old leaders won't do to tie to any longer. The colored men are soft ening and begin to understand th4r duty. There were four mounted and uniformed clubs in attendance on this occasion, viz., two from Cromer's Town ship, one from Jalapa and one fron Laurens; and as they dished up with ringing cheers for State and County tickets, they were met with responsive vivas from the crowd already assem bled. Conspicuous in this animated concourse were the ladies, whose pres ence lent a charm to the scene. The speakers on this occasion were Lips comb, Keitt, Dorrob, Chalmers, Riser, Wheeler and Pope, who addressed the company in the order mentioned, and in the happiest manner. The arguments adduced were plain and pointed and convincingly practical that the only hope for the p6ace and welfare of the State lay in the success of the Demo cratic cause, and with Hampton as Governor.a new order of things would take tlie place 6f the ruin which now spreads over the State. The day was not all taken up in speaking, either, for the.ladies, knowing that the inner W"titff man must 5e aboisupplied, had prepared a sumptuous basket pic nic, to which was added barbecued meats in abundance. It was a mag nificent feast and enjoyed by all, white and colored, with a zest which did redit to their appetites. The citizens >f that section deserve credit for the hospitality and for the earnest zeal dis played by them, and they will have the satisfaction of seeing ere long the read thus cast upon the waters return ng to them in the election of the nom nees they are workirig so faithfully :or. AT JALAPA ON WEDNESDAY. A BIG DAY. NO ABATEMENT IN~ ENThUSIASM. At an early hour on Wednesday norning it was our plea-sure to arrive mn the ground where the candidates ere to make the last talk of the pro ~ramme as laid down by the Ex. Com 3re they are again started out onl 1 grand round. The place selected -the beautiful grove surrounding the iouse of W. C. Sligh-was well chosen, shade and good water being plentiful. As we drove up it could be seen that he country around was all awake, that verybody was out and that the day was to be another one of those tri ruphs of which Newberry has had so nany since the campaign began. The randidates were ill in line, and though ird and hoarse from the arduous ia ors of the past weeks, were ready for he work in hand. Jalapa wvas ready, boo, not only in stern material but with large complement of nature's best gift-woman-who were there in large mbers, In and around, too, could e seen crowds of colored men, in grat ifying numbers. Soon. the stentorian 'oiceL of the chairman, Mr. E. P. Chal ner, was heard making the welkin -iag with his call* for order, as the peakig would soon commence. The rarious clubs in their red jackets, viz: Jalapa, Cromer's, Laurens and Silver street, took up the cry as it reverber ted through the grand old woods, and ame up to the stand with the battle cry of Hampton and Reform. It was an inspiring cry and a scene calculated to stir one profoundly. When order was had, Capt. Lipscomb was intro duced, who occupied the attention for nearly two hours. His remarks were principally addressed to the colored men who sat close to the stand. Next followed Col. Keitt in a singular-ly hap py and pointed style. The sensible and practical illustrations of this speaker were plain, enough to carry conviction to the mind of every colored man pres ent. ,That he knows ttow to talk to them was made* evident on this occa sion, and we wish that space allowed for an ontline of what he advanced. This speech occupied an hour. After this came dinner, -and such a dinner! We will not attempt a description, save to say that everything was pirovided in barbecued meats and hash, besides a delicious spread fr-om the ladies' bas kets in fried chickens, pies, cake, &c. It was a glorious feast-and at our cor ner of the table stood one or two of the fair providers who shall alw ays have a big place in our heart for the handsome manner in which they did the honors. The hash was better than any ever tasted at a barbecue before, and we think wouald have even made S. P. K., of famous hash memory, take down his laurels. It was one of the best ordered d inners, too, ever known-no confusion. no rash, nor grab, nor anything calcu lated to cause unpleasantness. All had plenty, black and white, and each, too, bad their tables. After a couple of hours spent in this way, attention was again direct ed to the stand and the time was taken up by Dr. Dorroh, L. 7. W. Riser, Y. J. Pope, D). B. Whee ler, S. Pope and E. P. Chailmers. As these gentlemen had but limited time he speeches had to be short, and in non~PAI1eflce they made them pointed, FOR THE MERALD. TOWNSHIP NO. 11 ABLAZE!! ONE HUNDRED COLORED PERSONS PRES ENT ! A COLORED CONVERT MAKES A SPEECH! Last Saturday, 30th ultimo, was. a .gala day for Township No. 11. On the morning of that day large crowds could be seen wending their course to the place selected for the meeting-Wick er's Camp Ground, about three and a half miles from Pomaria depot. The "Hampton Mounted Rifle Club," re cently organized, under Capt. E. J. Lake, in their red jackets, having uni ted with the "Newberry Lance Club," under Capt. D. A. Dickert, also uni formed, focmed a procession of over a half mile long in length, and with deafening shouts of "Hurrah for Hamp ton," proceeded to the stand which had been constructed near the school house, where a large concourse of ladies and gentlemen had already taken their seats. The mounted clubs assumed their posi tions around the stand in order. Some one hundred colored persons had taken their places near the stage, evidently desirous of hearing the great questions and issues of the day truthfully and ably discussed. Wing some of the white men present, we noticed those who had not attended political meetings sidee before the war-had never voted for any of the fusion tickets put in the field for the last eight years, thus show ing that we had chosen a leader for whom they were not ashamed' to cast their ballot. Quiet being restored, Mr. Thos. W. HolIoway,. President, of the- Democratic club at this place, introdnced the speak ers in order. Eloquent and stirring speeches were made by Capt. Lips comb, Col. Keitt, Drs. Pope and Dor roh, Y. J. Pope. Esq., Col. Chalmers, and Mr, D. B. Wheeler. They were plain., practical, often abounding in living every-day illustra tions calculated to reach the minds of the colored persons, whom they were pardeularly anxious to impress. Several points were made by them that the negroes were wanting to hear. It has been told to them by the Radical speak ers that the Northern army set them free, and that if the Democratic party gets the supremacy (as sure. it will) their freedom and the;- rights as color ed men would be taken from them. This infamous set of lies was refuted, and it was. clearly shown that the ne groes owe their freedom to the war and its results-the freedom of the negro was a war measure, an effort on the, part of Lincoln to cripple the resources of the Southern people. Abraham Lin coin would have suffered slavery to go on to save the Union. We will not give at length these able and convincing ad dresses,, but we sicerely hope it is seed sown in good ground, and that they wviJ bring many votes to the Demo crai.ic party. The chairman of the meeting an noanced that if there were any Repub licans present who wished to speak, they would now be given an opporta ni y to do so, when Riley McKissick, a caloted Republican, "a chronic candi daoe." mounted the stand and delivered himself of his pent-up "'publikin" feel ings. He charged the whites of acting in bad faith just afler. the war; told his coiored brethren he was a "'publikin" and intended voLing the "'publikiin" ticket. but also said to them that they were free men and had the right to vote just as they pleased, nobody should hurt them. Aft.er this harangue, in whicb the English g' ammar and dictionary suffered terrible contortions, Jack Sloan, a recent convert to the Democratic fold, rose and gave an account of the ill-. treatmen.t he had .suiffered at the hands of his pretended Radical friends; de nounced the carpet-bagger and "scala wagger" in unmeasm-ed terms, and de clared his intention hereafter to follow the whito people. and urged the same upon his colored auditors. Jack took his seat greeted by the ap)planse which only the penitent deserve. .i We forgot to mention in its proper place, that our patriotic ladies had kind ly furnished a basket picnic for the oc casion. Everything was plentiful and all enjoyed the repast hugely. The exercises wvere then announced by the chai-man as closed, when an opportunity was extended to any who might..desire to join the; Deincratic club. "Several colored nien 'caine for ward and had their names enrolled a foflowers of the great and chivalrous fTmpton. Thus erided the big day at Pomaria, and in the name of the people of this township-we shout., Hurrah for our beloved Hampton and success to the County ticket. POMARIA.

Nearly every man, woman and child - . - -~ ~ A ....~.. ~ ABOUT THE TOWN AND COUNTY. October weather. Business with the change in weather is reviving. Some of the merchants are getting in goods. The Court House was given up two days to the Republican convention. In the dearth of local items we are obliged to remirk that the weather is dry-and money scarce. Never has the dust been worse than in the past few weeks-it penetrates and covers everything. Cotton buyers and weighers are so busy that they have scarcely time to eat. Glad to see Capt. McM. Calmes back in Newberrv-he has been to the mountains and hard at work. Some one wants to know where the eggs have gone to.. There have been none in town for a week or two. It's about time some of the promises made in the Spring 'were fulfilled. Were they made only to be broken? The crowd in town last Saleday was an impecunious one-not a single man came up to settle. Look o6tfor squalls Chickens singularly have become scarce. A coop full from the Edgefield section stirred the town on Monday. to its deepest depths. "She was plump and beautiful, and be was wildly fond of her. She hated him, but Womanlike, she strove to catch him. What was he? A flea." Marriages are very rare now-cotton is so low that the young folks can't in dulge in the fashion of marrying. They are waiting for the redemption of the State. The season for cotton picking never was more favorable, and the farmers have taken advantage of it. The con sequence is that the market has been kept in full supply. As Winter approaches we advise our farmer readers to make provision for their cattle in the erection of suitable stalls and sheds to shelter them from cold rains and biting winds. The democracy keeps quiet and that ,is right-profound peace is what- -we want. It is the great essential which will -insure success. Let the bloody shirt wave. We can afford to possess or souls wif.h patience. In the meantime let the democracy, every opportunity they have, sow oats :m every vacant spot. It's a sure pop. Another club-Colony comes into line with a respectable number to com mence. The next thing in order is that every member take the HERALD, either foi 12, 6, 3 or even 1 month. .Every man in the county ought to take the county paper and .pay for it too. We have no use for a man's name without the .money. Have enough of that sort now. Riley McKissick, colored republican, in a speech a few nights since to some of his brethren, said he was the only man who could measure arms with Keitt, the democratic nominee, and that he had almost silenced him. Pret. y good for Riley. The meeting at Liberty Hall on last Tuesday was a rousing big one, and the speech of Keitt's is acknowledged as a splendid effort. He is able to make them. We saw no chicken at the Jalapa barbecue, yet a friend tells us he ate a backbone, two wings, two legs and part of the breast, leaving out the pull ing bone. Surely some of that chicken was intended for the editor. In various~ places- over the county fields are covered with grass, which might be converted into hay with but little trouble. It is surprising that the average.run of farmers pay so little at tention to the curing of this valuable article. The Abbeville Medium says-and we say so also: - What do you think of a man who talks about education aid at the same timne does not stibscribe d pay for a nwspaper. How can.h im press upon his children the necessity of learning when he has no paper about the house and is himself yrithout. infor. mation?-. MAKE OTHERS HAPPY.-If we would but remember how 'little is required of us, -how ver'y small the sacrifice to make others feel happy. A word here, or a little deed there, a smile even, what wonderful effects they produce, On the Gne hand, an impatient answer, a surly look will cast a gloom which will last may be for an entire day. Think, too, of the differ ene it will make to you, Kindness hownl to another will react upon your self and make you feel better, your eye grows brighter, your step lighter, the very birds sing sweeter as if they have caught the inspiration, and the grass is greener and the flowers brighter because you are happier in making some one else happy. Be kindly af fectioned one to another, and try and do all the good you can. THE AMERICAN FARMER for October is ull, as usual, of varied and useful matters suited to every farmer desirous of improve ment in his profession. This old agricultu ral journal treats exclnsively on farm and garden topics, and is not given up to sub jects not connected directly with rural life, all the branches of which are thoroughly ared for. No farmer, on any scale however large or small, but would find it to his in teres to sub.scrb frm and read this standard "Statistics show that thus far in thi centennial year two boys have beer born to every girl, and a very fine arti cle of a boy in every case, too. Doet this mean another war, or merely les talk ?" Will some one better posted than w( are answer this question? A Western paper has discovered that the question of babies has a great deal to do with the election of a Presi dent of the United States. In defence of his theory it is urged that Wash iogton, Madison, Jackson, Polk, Fill. more and Buchanan were either bach elors or childless husbands. Dismiss ing the A damses, Jefferson and others with a wave of the hand, the point is made that the fates have decreed that every third President of the United States shall be childless. Ergo, Hayes and Cooper are out of the question and Tilden will be elected. That set tles it. TILDEN'S SAVINGs.-The taxes this year, less the taxes for schools and debt requirements, are Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars less than they were under Governor Morgan in 1860 ! And this notwithstanding the fact that in 1860 the business of the country was on a gold basis, while now we are suffering all- the evils of a redundant paper currency. Reduce the taxes of to-day to gold, and the savings will be seen to have been about one-half. Make the' computa tion per capita and the savings would be found to be much greater. That is what Samuel J. Tilden has done for New York. That is what he will do for the Nation. His work in this State- will be continued by Lucius Robinson, whose Democratic financial doctrines' and policy were odious to Morgan when he was Gov ernor, and have been rejected by the Republican party. They will now be made the head of the corner in both State and Natzon.-Aloany Argus. POST OFFICE, NEwBRR, . C., Oct. 7,1876. List of advertised letters for week ending Oct. 7, 1876: Brown, Jas. H.
