The Great Exposition. We have received from the publishers. Meissrs. Hubbard Bros., of Philadelphia, ud vance sheets of a forthcoming volume, which will greatly interest every American. It is entitled "THE CENTENNIAL EXPOSITION DEScaIBED AND ILLUSTRATED," and is a complete history and pictorial representation of this grandest world's fair the world has ever known. The exhibits of the various nations are taken up in the order of their prominence, commencing with the UNITED STATES, the most notable and characteristic of whbse exhibits are carefully noticed, whether in the MAIN BUILDING, MACHINERY HALL, AG RICULTURAL HALL, GovbaNMENT BuILD ING, MEMORIAL HALL, or in the numerous smaller structures erected all through the Qrounds by American exhibitors. In the same manner is treated Great Britain and her Colonies, Germany, France, Russia and Brazil,, minor European states, South Ameri can republics, Africa, Asia, so that nothing that is of striking and prominent interest is overlooked. Suitable space is devoted to a description of the different State Building', and of tpe interesting ceremonies of the great State days, celebrating the7.iudividual prosperity of the original thirteen States, and also :of the MExoRABLE PARADES AND ANvEa SARIES which have been held in Philadel phia by the different organizations, societies, &c., in honor of the Centennial commemora tion of our national independence. An interesting account is given of the re markable LIVE STocK EXHIBITION; Biogra phies of the prominent Officials who have conducted this great enterprise with distjn guished ability; particulars of the Awards granted to Exhibitors; the superb and en during Medals commemorative thereof; and to complete this memorial volume, a graphic delineation of the imposing closing ceremo nies of the Exhibition. It has been prepared from material ga th ered on the grounds, by the most careful, pa. tient and laborious research, and from official sources, and though it does not claim, as some do, to be by official authority, it com mands confidence thereby, Gen. Hawley having announced that no book has any right to such a claim. But the interest and value of the book lie largely in its profuse and brilliant illustra tions. In its multitude of finely executed engravings, the main features of the Exhibi tion are vividly impressed on the mind of the redder in a way that words cannot do. It is next thing to seeing the great World's Fair itse!f. We advise our readers to examine the book carefully should they have an op portunity. We presume the publishers want agents in this vicinity, and we hope some of our energetic young men will improve what seems to us an extraordinary opportunity to favor our citizens and profit handsomely by it. VERY USEFUL To EvERY ONE.-In no other way can a person get back so large a profit for a very little money, as to expend - it-in learning what to do, when to do it, and how to do it-in other words, to have his brains help his hands. Here is one way to do this: The small saving or extra produc. tion of less than half a cent a day, or 3 cents a week, will now procure a large, beautiful, cheap Journal, for all of 1877, splendidly I lustrated, with over 600 fine original En gravings, and over a Thousand Columns of the very best, plain, practical, trustworthy information about the every day in-door and out-door work and comfort of every home, in Country, Village, and City. This infor mation is not prepared by mere scribblers, but by a large force of intelligent working men and women, who know what they write about, and they are assisted by many others, -who furnish information from their own practice and obsevation. Such a Journal is the Americ.an Agriculturist, so named be cause started 35 years ago as a rural journal, but since greatly enlarged and improved tc :suit the daily wants oif every man, woman, and child in City, Country, and Village-for the'Farmer and Gardener, the Merchant and -Mechanic, the Professional Man-indeed, all classes. It is packed full of useful informa tion that every one ought to have. Many single hints and suggestions will repay more than a whole year's cost of the paper. Its origil engraved plans for buildings and improvemDents, with details of cost, etc., and common-sense directions, are worth far more than a majority of the costly works on arch itecture. Great care is exercised to have every line in the paper reliable. Its con stant, persistent, and full exposure of a mul titude of Humbugs and swindles, are alone worth far more than its cost, and have saved 'to its readers and to the country millions o1 -4ollars that would have gone into the hands of sharpers. The Departments for House keepers and Children are very useful and en -tertaining. In short, the American Agrical turist is full of good things, and ought to be in every house in the land The circulatioi is so large that the Publishers can supply i -at little above the cost of the printing paper -or $1.60 a year, sent post-paid; or foul copies $5.40. Take our advice and send yous subscrition for 1877 (Vol. 36) to OG! JUDD CMPANY, 245 Broadway, New York. Y ou will find it pay, and pay well. BRICK NASH AS A WITNEss. Nash testified before the Cougression a! committee, 23d, that an attempt *had been made by one of our mosi respected citizens, Colonel L. D. -Childs, President of the Carolina Na tional Bank, to purchase his vote it the electoral college. A friend it Washington immediately telegraphed Colonel Childs, wh-o is at his home it this city confined to a bed of sickness. Colonel CJhilds made an affidavit, last evening, in which he denies in tott Nash's statements. The affidavit is full and complete, and will of course -cunteract the effect the Radical swin diers and- perjarers intended Nash's testimoDy to have- upon tbe ?olflIfl' tee. Here in Columbia, where both ieen are known, it would be unneces sary to say a word in defense of C2ol onel Childs or denunciatory of Nash but for the benefit of our readers else where, it is necessary to say that Col one! Childs is known as one of out best citizens, a man of sterling integ rity, and a man whose whole life has been blameless ; while Nash is a Rad ie-al negro statesman of the Whippei stripe, who has been mixed up in al sorts of jobbery and rascality in Souti Carolina for the past eight years-one of his last feats being an attemtt get a fraudulent brick claim for sev eral thousand dollars through the bo nanza- commission, which claim, il was afterwards proven by his book keeper, had already been paid, ani that Nash was aware of the previous payment. Colonel Childs' afiidavil has been forwarded to the Congres sional committee. So much for th< "old brick" as a witness.-Register MUSIC FOR THE NEW YEAE.-For the new year 1877 the subscription price of Lud den & Bates' popular SOUTHERN MUsICAl JOURNAL has been reduced to $1.00, withou premium.

S. C. WEDNESDAY, JAN. 31, 1877. A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE. The Herald is in the highest respect a Fam lv Newspaper, devoted to the material in terests of the people of this County and the State. It circulates extensively, and as an Advertisind medium offers unrivalled ad Ivantages. %or Terms, see first page. Come to Terms. A number of violent colored Repub lican leaders in Fairfield County whom the farmers "preferred" not to em ploy, have made affidavit, pledging themselves to support Hampton's gov ernment and to pay taxes to his ap pointee. Some are in favor of the Electoral Bill simply because Morton is opposed to it. May not Morton reason this way : The Democrats have backed down from their claim that the House can take part in counting the vote; now, if I can just drive them from this compromise retreat, I shall surely succeedin getting my man into the Presidency. Williamston Female College. This institution deserves a liberal patronage from those having daughters to educate. It is non-sectarian, is in one of the healthiest localities of the State, and is presided over by a gen tleman of long and successful expe rience in female education, assisted by a competent corps of teachers. The terms are very moderate, and can be rendered still more so by the diligence of the pupils. Those who grade above 75 get a reduction of from 10 to 50 per cent. on t1.e next session's tuition. Rev. Samuel Lander is the President. . The Schools. We had expected to say something in regard to the public schools ; buit the times are so out of joint that there is no public fund on hand for them. and if there were a fund the Commis sioner for this county is not compe tent to manage the system successful ly. So the people who have children to educate should endeavor to make some arrangemenrts to send them to private teachers until such time as the free schools shall be put into proper order. Don't let the hard times, nor the perplexities of public affairs, deprive the children -of a de cent schooling. Eclectic Magazine. The February number of this ex cellent monthly has come. We regard it as the best periodical published in this country. Containing as it does the very best selections from the En gish Reviews, it may be fitly called the cream of them all. This number contains a fine steel engraving of the celebrated Scotch poet and novelist. George MacDonald, with a sketch of his life and works by the Editor. The selections include history, science, art, fiction and poetry. The Eclectic is published by E. R. Pelton, 25 Bond street, New York. Terms: Single~ numbers, 45 cents; yearly subscrip tions, $5. Nick-Names. "Cadetship" Whittemore ; so called for selling a cadetship, for which of fense he was kicked out of Congress. "Brick" Nash ; so called for present ing a big claim for bricks to the Bo nanza Commission after having been paid for them already. "Chlory" Carpenter ; so called because he was chloroformed very mysteriously one night in his house, and the next morning a large sum of government money was mnissing. "Honest" John Patterson ;- stroke of irony. "Big amist" Bowen ; so called because he had two wives at the same time. He was tried for this crime and sentenced to penitentiary ; but Grant pardoned him. "Ku Klux" Corbin-because notorious by his active prosecution of the so-called Ku Klux. Several newspapers in the State are claiming the credt for the straight-out movement. The truth of the matter is this: the whole thing was in the hands of the people; some papers thought the people demanded a straight-out policy, others thought they demanded a compromise--and they shaped their course accordingly. The people, by their representatives assembled in convention, called for the straight-out policy; then all the Democratic papers in the State adopt ed the policy, and worked for it with all their might. To the people, there fore, belongs whatever credit is due. It was perfectly natural that coun ties containing Republican majorities For the Ladies. As a large proportion of our read. ers are ladies, it is not doing them justice to fill all our columns witl politics. We therefore devote a spac exclusively for them. Gentlemen need not read. A great deal is said, now-a-days about the nobility of household work and much fine sentiment is wasted of the supposed felicity of fond husband. in the reflection that the fair hands o the best beloved object have prepare( the meal. swept the floor and removec the dust from the furniture ; whereas we opine, the average husband is at exceedingly matter-of-fact creature who, provided his dinner be wel cooked, and his easy chair and slip pers always in place for his afternoot smoke, in no wise troubles himsel with romantic vagaries about thi hands that did the work. We hol< that it is a duty that Southern womei owe to themselves and the State t employ domestic help wherever prac ticable. We have in our midst a larg, surplus population, and the questioi is what to do with it. There are twc answers: give them work, or leav, them to idleness and the vices tha idleness always produces. The South ern women have it in their power, ti a considerable extent, to form to hab its of thrift and industry an impor taut, if humble, class of citizens-n small service to the State-and at th same time to train a body of capabl and trustworthy servants-ro incon siderable benefit to themselves. Hoj invaluable a really good servant is ni one will deny that remembers the oh colored "maumas" who, with thei gaily turbaned heads and snowy neck ercbiefs, formed an indispensable par of a Southern household. These sa ble treasures are rapidly passing awa; with our grandmothers, to whose pa tient care they owed their many val uable qualities; and unless the risini colored generation be trained to tak their places we fear that good set vants at the South will soon becom an extinct class. This training re quires a great deal of self-control an patience. Indeed, some ladies "woul' rather do their own work than b bothered with the stupid creatures.' This is merely an adjournment, no a settlement of the difficulty. 'Wit: a little skillful management ther might exist so kindly a feeling be tween mistress and servant that ther would be with each a reluctance t part with the other. One of th greatest evils of the present systemi the frequency of change. A servan should grow old in the service of on employer; they should become mutu ally tattached by faithful service reE dered, on the one part, and variou benefits conferred, on the other. Bu the great personal advantage, tram cending all others, which a woma derives from good servants, is leisur for the cultivation~of her intellectut and aesthetic nature. We have hear of a few chosen spirits, so marvelous1 endowed, mentally and physically that they could perform all the dutie of cook and house-servant, and t'hei have plenty of time to devote to reac ing, music, and so on. These ar the rarw ares. Most women, b~ neath so herculean a task, would sini weary and faded, with ill health an premature old age. We do not re commend that a lady should ignor domestic duties. She should supei intend her own house. Her hoot be it ever so humble, should show, i its arrangements, that taste and cot fort which the practiced eye and skil ful hand of a cultivated woman ca alone impart. Her table should n< only, iu its dainty appointments, il spotless linen, its gracefully groupe flowers, show the possessor of a r< fined taste; but, in its appetizmn dishes, its delicate home-made pri serves and pastries; should prove thorough knowledge of all the arts< the house-wife. But the mere dru< gery of house-keeping we would hav her consign to those humbler classe; on whom we can confer no great< benefit than honest, paying emplo: ment, and the educating influences< a good home. The Electoral Bill. We see no reason for changing tbi opinion expressed last week on th subject. Our objection to it is cor cisely stated thus : (1) It gives H aye in our opinion, a better chance for th Presidency than Tilden,~ whereas b really ought to have no chance at al having been fairly beaten in the ele< tion ; (2) if Hayes gets into tb Presidency at all, it would be bette for the Democracy that he should ge in by force and fraud than by thei sanction. Of course, there is grea strength in the argument that thi compromise lulls public excitemen and tends to revive business-ifi indeed does these things. 'We awai he action of this Conressi'onal Te Editorial Review. Carl Schurz favors the Electoral C Bill. So does Mr. Hendricks. The Electoral Bill was passed in t the House the 26th, by a vote of 191 ( to 86. ,d WASHINGTON, January 25.--The Senate passed the Electoral Bill by a vote of 47 to 17. The Charleston News and Courier e is for "the bill, the whole bill and no thing but the bill." t SPRINGFIELD, ILL., January 25.- c Judge David Davis was elected U. S. s Senator, to succeed Logan. f Jno. R. McPherson, (Dem.) has c been elected U. S. Senator from New f Jersey, to succeed Frelinghuysen. ALBANY, N. Y., January 23.-In A the State Senate resolutions endorsing the Electoral Bill were voted down. 1 ATLANTA, GA., January 26.-Hon. Ben. H. Hill was elected U. S. Sena tor to-day to succeed- Senator Nor wood. HARTFORD, CONN., January 2. In the enate to-day, resolutions pass ed last week endorsing the Electoral Bill were recalled, reconsidered and laid on the table. Judge Thomas Settle, the defeated Republican candidate for Governor of North Carolina last fall, has been ap pointed by President Grant U. S. District Judge of Florida. BOSTON, January 23.-A mass mee.ing was held to-day in Fanueil Hall; 4,000 present. Resolutions thanking the Congressional committee for the Electoral Bill were adopted. r The Grand Jury of Abbeville, at - the January term, presented D. H. t Chamberlain as a defamer; they pro test against the use of troops at elec. tions, and also call for a registration law. SIOUx CITY, January 23.-It is re ported at Fort Randall that fifteen wagons and twenty men, coming from the Black Hills, were captured by Crazy Horse's baud. None escaped. All were scalped.. SLancaster County has been paying I 500 per annum for several years past sto the widow of a negro said to have been killed by the Ku Klux. Judge tMackey stopped that, and the faibds 1are retained by the County. SThe expenses of Congress while in .session are about $1,000 an hour. The roll is called on an average three times a day, occupying twenty minutes each call. A session of seventy-five days therefore cost $75,000 for roll-calls. SJudge Townsend, of the 4th Cir e '.t, has made a decision directly op posite to Judge Reed's. He decides -that the late election for County offi Scers was legal, and orders those hold ing over to turn over their offices to those elected last iNovember. The County Conmmissioners of Abbe ville County have called upon the peo pIe for a tax of one mill upon last 1year's assessments, to answer the press ing needs of the county till such time as the regular levy can be made and collected. sThe New York $un says, in speak ing of the objection some of the Demo cratic Congressman have to the Elec toral Bill:" "The underlying cause of objection is that Mr. Tilden was fairly elected, and ought not to be put on the same plane with Mr. Hayes, his defeatea rival." Certainly. That's just it. Mr. Tilden has been fairly elected, and should be inaugurated. If the Electoral Bill would secure that there could be no objection to it. But will it do it ? W~e fear not. SA negro man in Colleton County, who has been getting pay as second .grade teacher, presented himself be fore the Board of Examiners last week, and made the following show ting : Question. "What was the war of 1775-83 called ?" Ans. "The war of Roses." Question. "Who commanded the British forces during the Revolution ?" Ans. "Capt. Jno. Smith." Question. "Who command ed the American forces ?" Ans. "Gen. Massachusetts." J. B. DeBerry, a Florida telegraph er, was before the Powers and Privi leges Committee, and testified to a knowledge of telegrams to the follow ing effect : Secretary Chandler to Stearns : "We are absolutely sure of so many votes, [did not remember the number,] and must have Florida, South Carolina and Louisiana, by fair means or otherwise." Same to same : "Send couriers to each County ; they must be made to show a majority for Hayes." Same to same : "Have seen the President and Secretary of War. Money and troops will be sent." Wit 'ness could not remember the exact words, and declined to answer certain questions, as they would crimin ate him under Florida laws. He will probably be held in contempt. Among the many interesting features of CUnC's MUSICAL VIsiTR for February, are five of the last songs of the late sweet tsinger, P. P. Bliss, and a fine portrait of the rlmen ted composer.
