A SATISFYING PLACE.-There is no
thing more desirable than a good repu
tation, and when once it is establishe<
it should be maintained at all hazards
and it is pleasant to say that we have ii
mind a business house in Columbia, th<
proprietors of which have not onii
gained that enviable claim by their pas
efforts to please the public, but are de
termined to maintain it. We allude t<
Messrs. Kingsland & Heath, the popu
lar China, Crockery and Fancy Good!
dealers. By this course they have beex
able to "bold the fort," in spite of ad.
verse times, and the pressure of cir"
cumstances. They keep a -splendic
variety of goods and sell at reasonabl<
prices There is no article of utility o1
of ornament but can be found in thi,
store. We recommend them to house
keepers especially.

1e A SMALL AFFAIR.-Newberry is the
s, banner county in more respects than
e. I one. This week we saw a little check
which carried figures on its face calling
- for $10,723.15, which amount was paid
of for one lot of cotton of two hundred and
s twelve bags. The cotton was raised
by an enterprising farmer of Newberrq
S. and was as pretty a lot as we have ever
seen, judging from the samples. We
were informed by the purchaser that
he had turned the entire lot over to the
Piedmont Factory of Greenville.
e
COAT IN COURT.-Isaiah Maffett, a
r- country darkey, was up before the
g Council Tuesday night charged with
stealing a coat from Harmon's store last
week. The charge was proved, and
the Council gave sentence for a fine of
$15, or thirty days in jail. Isaiah
a planked down the currency. The coat
was recovered.
e Another darkey will be tried this
(Tuesday) evening for stealing a pair
of shoes from the same store. The evi
. dence against him is pretty strong. The
t police deserve credit for detecting these
d fellows.
s
JUST A WORD.-NO doubt, we appear
sometimes to pit our nose into other
people's business, and to manifest an
undue curiosity about matters not per
taining to us. Individually, we have
no such curiosity; but, professionally,
we have. We desire to know what is
[t going on in the town and county, so as
to interest our readers. According to
our opinion, a county paper ought to
give a large portion of its attention and
e space to local affairs. To get this local
news we have to "nose around" a little
occasionally; sometimes we catch the
t scent, and then have to trail it up to the
source, so as to get it reliable. Now,
our friends can save us an immense
amount of trouble, and do us a favor
that will be highly appreciated, by giv
t ing us, in person, or by letter or card,
any matter of public interest that trans
s pires in the county. And this they can
do with little or no trouble to them
selves. Indeed, if it were any trouble
we sbuld not ask them to do it.
d THE LECTURE THAT WAS NOT DE
LTVERED.-Mr. J. Alexander McFadden,
of Baltimore, the popular lecturer and
reader, was to have given an entertain
ment at Temperance Hall Friday eve
ning. The notice was very short, and
ya rain came on about -the appointed
Shour; so only a few persons were pres
ent. Mr. McFadden therefore postponed
rthe entertainment indefinitely. A few
ladies and gentlemen were invited to
a Mr. Moorman's, where Mr. McFadden
read,- for their entertainment, several
pieces, mostly humorous, in the negro,
SDutch and Irish dialects. The .reading
owas excellent, and was greatly enjoyed
~by those who were so fortunate as to
Shear it. We hope the lecturer will come
e -again, and that he will give more ex
n tensive notice of his cmn, so as to
secure a large audience.
e JALAPA ITEMs.-Everybody has the
L- wheoping cough at Jalapa.
Stealing progresses-, and one.of the
victims is Mr. Thompson Connor. The
t ties from a bale of his cotton were bro
r ken off last Wednesday night and one
r hundred and fifty pounds of cotton sto
e len. Mr. Connor says he would give
) the thief the cotton had he asked for it,
i. so that he would have been saved re
e packing the bale.
e Mr. W. C. Sligh had ten fine, fat,
e frolicsome hens taken from him on the
e same night. He will not have any eggs
to spare for some time.
A colored woman died very suddenly
about one week ago. She was found
near a fence she was building up, with
a rail across her breast. She had pre
Sviously had an attack of apoplexy.
Dr. Willie Folk, judging from ap
dpearances, will soon occupy that four
acre lot. On Saturday last he was out
Swith coat off, fixing to fence it around.
Th'e next thing will be a dwelling.
The same gentleman has a fine horse
Scolt named Tilden, and Mr. Willie
Sligh a mule colt equally fine, named
Hampton.
h THE TAX.-U p to February 21st,
g $109,090.86 had been paid in. Ctharles
r ton leads off with $827,907.84, Abbeville.
t- following with $6,700.00, Newberry
w comes next with $6,157.23. There has
t- been a kind of generous competition
d between Abbeville and Newberry. They
ec were running side by side till the books
3. were closed here on the 5th instant;
- they have been reopened and we must
e catch up again, Newberry has paid
r. more than the tenth asked for. Abbe
ville has paid, in addition to the amount
s above named, $3,150 for county pur
i- poses.
ir The amount paid cannot be regarded
. as a test of loyalty, for some counties
harc much larger and wealthier than
,~ others, and the books were opened at
d different dates in different counties.
e The response all over the State has
ec been all that could be wished for
i prompt, cheerful and liberal. Many
nl colored people have paxd-in Barnwell
S, over 800; in other counties, large
n numbers. Though the sums contributed
by them are necessarily small, yet the
simplCefact of their paying, even if it be
e only one-tensh of their poll-tax, is exceed
v- ceedingly important, and will have
is great weight and influence upon Con
et gress whenever South Carolina affairs
se shall be brought before that body for
es settlement. Therefore, let every man

GUANOS.-The attention of the fa
mers of Newberry and surroundin
country is directed to the card of M
John C. Wilson, who is agent for ti
following fertilizers: Pacific, Wand<
- Bahama and Rhodes'. As he offers
i variety, and each of them of establishE
reputation, the farmer has only to mal
up his mind to puichase; he can't mi:
it which ever choice lie makes.
"VALENTINE."--We would be ur
grateful and undeservingof the good the
our correspondent "Valentine" woul
have fall to our lot did we not expre:
. gratitude. We thank him heartill
and trust that each of his friendly wisl
es may be realized from, the fine han
the new subscribers with the necessar
- tin, even down to a long and happ
life, with crown, stars and all.
A SLIP BETWEEN CUP AND LIP.-]
is not our intention to make our tow
readers melancholy; but as a local car
not be lost, we are obliged to tell thei
how much they have lost. One of th
finest, fattest beeves ever raised in th
town came within an ace of bein
spread on Holly's stall. But owner sE
his pegs on the animal higher than Holl
could reach, and Newberry has lost.
PERSONAL.-Mr. Lewis W. Simkin1
of Chappell's Depot, son of the gallan
Col. Jno. Simkins, who fell at the bal
tie of Secessionville, June 16, 1862, 1
studying law in the office of Moorma:
& Schumpert.
Mr. Simeon Pratt, formerly of Chai
M pell's Depot, is now living in town.
Dr. Thos. White, of Beaufort, droppe
into our sanctum Friday.
Buy YOURSELF RrcH.-On next Moi
day will be afforded a chance to the pe
ple of Newberry to buy themselves ricd
as Mr. T. F. Harmon will on that da
sell out his entire remaining stock<
goods, consisting of Dry Goods, Boot
and Shoes, with Platform and Counte
Scales, Show Cases, &c. Do not fail t
attend and secure bargains; such
chance will not offer soon again.
THE~ HAMPTON TAX.-Mr. U. I
Whites has his books open again t
-receive the ten per cent. tax, givin;
an opportunity to those who have nc
paid yet to do so. One thing we urg
upon all supporters of Gov. Hampto:
is to induce every colored man the
can to pay his ten per cent. Advane
him the money, if need be; it won't b
much. This is a matter of great in:
Iportance.
JUVYENILE CLASS.-Prof. Evans,
the suggestion of some of the olde
heads of the tewn, proposes anothe
praise meeting of the children of all th
Churches on this afternoon (Tuesday
at 4 o'clock, in the Methodist ChureJ
[ The object is the formation of a juveni]
class. Thirteen lessons will constitut
the course, for which only S1 will b
charged. Parents and teachers of th
various Churches are invited to atten'
as well as all the children.

TooK ADVANTAGE OF HDi.-A ver
- clever looking tobacco peddler, wit
- three plugs of the weed protrudin
-from his breast, approached one of ou
sharpest clerks on Friday. He expec
~ed to sell. Newberry, however, saa
the tobacco, and knowing what he wan
'ed. made up his mind to take the win
out of his sails by asking him if b
s could sell him some of the same articl<
I The peddler was staggered for a m<

had been eating razor soup for dinne:

ABOUT THE TOWN AND COUNTT.
The weather-it never fails.
Not so with promises-they are still
like pie crust. You know how that is,
reader.
A fine shower of rain on Thursday
night last. It was needed.
It was nothing but a handkerchief,
but how she laughed.
We shall have something for the boys
in our next.
The common experience in town is
that when a dray wagon is wanted one
cannot be found.
The Editors of this paper made a few
narrow escapes last week from flog
ging.
Wagons from North Carolina brought
into town several loads of the "weed"
last week.
A party of gentlemen were out Sat
urday morning after foxes. Haven't
heard what success they met with.
That bachelor says he is not half so
unsophisticated as we represented him
to be. He knows a thing or two.
Locals are so extremely scarce this
week that we would bless the man who
would help to fill this column.
An observant individual says he saw
several loads of pine straw hauled out
into a field as manure. It will do the
crop but little good.
Mr. Cash will soon have a fine gran
ite pavement laid in front of his store.
Leavell & Speers are getting the blocks
ready.
A servant girl, to prove her thorough
conversion, and entire change, said
that now she sweeps under the mats.
When a sinner she swept around them.
The Editor is not the only person
who has lost poultry. Many persons
in the county say they are constantly
losing chickens.
Messrs. Hipp and Sligh, the crack
fishers of the county, expect to have an
elegant time in March, and have ex
tended an invitation to this office.
Thanks.
These gentlemen report seeing sev
aral loads of manure lying in the road
as they came to town Tuesday. What
was the object?
Blessed is -the man who minds his
own business. Some men make excuse
that times are so dull they are forced
through lack of their own to attend to
that of others.
Blessed is 'the man who gives his wife
ten cents without asking what she is
going to do with it. Blessed if he has
it to give.
Blessed-again-is the wom'a that
don't scold when the stove-pipe falls
down on the dinner table, and-blessed
is the man that can fix it up without
swearirig.
We have been grieved, beyond ex
pression, to learn that a few people are
disposed to doubt some things they see
in newspapers. But some people are
naturally skeptical.
The Editors are not the only unfor
tunates-an old gentleman tells us he
went out collecting and only got a few
eggs. Everybody wanted to pay in
green pine. It's a shame.
Mr. Moody never uttered a greater
truth tban when he said "If Noah had
waited for a committee to build the ark,
the keel wouldn't have been laid to this
day." A committee of one will do.
Whoever heard of an anvil .being
stolen? Mr. W. W. Waldrop had one
stolen from his blacksmith shop several
days ago. The thief got in by pulling
off the weather-boarding. The anvil
weighs about one hundred pounds.
The negroes say the police guard the
old College building every night to
keep them from digging up "dat $20,
000,000 under de lef wing." They
probably have some indistinct recollec
tion of the laying of the corner-stone.
A fresh lot of school books received
at the Herald Book Store. A few copies
of Chatterbox on hand, which will be
sold at cost. There is no other book
published that will afford a child so
much pleasure as the Chatterbox.
This is the time for setting hens
and we advise poultry raisers to save
the first. pullets, that they may have
plenty of eggs during Winter. Beef
liver chopped fine is good for chickens
kept in small yards.
"What men need wives for?" This
is the question very easily answered:
Any ordinary person who has poked
his head from under the bedclothes on
a frosty morning and listened to the
melody of his wife's ax on the wood
shed floor will have no trouble in an
swering that inquiry.
