Trial Justice Packer Friday bound over for trial at the next Court of Ses sions Lawrence Jones and Charles Gary, for attempting to exercise the functions of Trial Justice and Consta ble on the 10th of this month. A match game of base-ball was played on the College campus Friday afternoon between the Town Club and a select nine from the Male Academy and the Oak Grove Academy, the school boys coming cut one run ahead.

The members of the Legislature from Laurens, Abbeville and the other coun ties above passed through Newberry yesterday (Monday) on their way to Columbia.

The subscription price of the New berry HERALD is reduced from $2.50 to $2.00 per annum-Cash in advance. Ex-Gov. Perry, Congressman Aiken and others are advising Democrats to accept office from the hands of Hayes. Well, we have great respect for these gentlemen, and entire confidence in their patriotism; but we desire to say right here that we don't expect to ac cept any office from the President. The friends of Mr. Junius E. Chap man, and the business public generally, are informed that he is now to be found at the store of Mrs. Mower. where he will be pleased to have them call. Mr. Chapman is a good salesman and a very upright and reliable man, and we cordially commend him. The subscription price of the New berry HERALD is reduced from $2.50 to ! $2.00 per annum-Cash in advance. "LKE P1ENIX."-Newberry is comu ing out of the ashes. Mrs. Wicker's building is far toward completion; Mrs. Whalev's is covered and weather-board ed, and will soon be ready for occupa tion, and the walls of Mr. Jacob Sing ley's brick store are going up rapidly. Work will begin upon other buildings soon. NoT A GLASS.-Two ladies went to the post office the other morning to mail a letter, and seeing the window of the money order department, mistook it for the frame of a mirror. Walking up to it to take a peep, what was their surprise in seeing, instead of their own pretty faces, the long, solemn visage of the Postmaster. The subscription price of the New berry HERALD is reduced from $2.50 to $2.00 per annum-Cash in advance. We take pleasure in inviting atten tion to the advertisements of Messrs. P. W. & R. S. Chick. They certainly have a large, complete and well selected stock of goods, and we speak by the board when we say that purchasers get entire satisfaction. Mr. Walter Hodges and his attentive assistants spare no efforts to please the patrons of this estab lishment. While Mr. J. G. Rikard and family were out of the house Wednesday two negroes went to the window and stole a quilt and towel. Some of the family saw the netgroes and hailed them, but they escaped with their booty. What a negro could want with a quilt at this season of the year, or a towel at any time, no one can imagine. They prob ably stole the articles merely to keep in practice. The subscription price of the New berry HERALD is reduced from $2.50 to $2.00 per annum-Cash in advance. Ax EGG WITHIN AN Ec.-First,I somebody brought us a big egg, then somebody else brought us a twin egg, and now Mr. Frank Moon brings us an egg within an egg. The outer one is the size of a turkey egg, the inner as large as a hen's egg. The former when broken had a white and two yolks, the latter has not been broken yet. New berry can't be beaten on the egg ques tion. Eggs have risen five cents in Lexing ton. We believe it wvas a concerted scheme on the part of those Lexington people to keep the price of eggs down till the Lutheran Synod should meet, to make the impression that board was cheap down there. But now, since the Synod has met and located the College, eggs go up five cents again-just in the opening of spring too, when hens are beginning to lay. That's too thin. The subscription prise of the New berry HERALD is reduced from $2.50 to $2.00 per annum-Cash in advance. 'TRAMLe, TRAMP, TRAMP,' &c.-We had a genuine tramp in our office Fri day, a perfect metropolitan. There is scarcely a State in the Union that he has not seen. -He was a printer, and knocked around in the office with the familiarity and ease of an old hand. But he went off and slandered us. The last seen of him was Saturday morn ing, with a bottle of spirits in his pock et and his face set toward Union. Stokes may excpect r, call. GOING Ur.-The price of provisions has risen considerably wvithin the last few days; flour about a dollar and a half a barrel, and corn eight or ten cents a bushel. Quinine has gone up rapidly; it cannot be bought nowv by, w holesale in Philadelphia for less than 5.50 per ounce. Alcohol, morphine and several other medicines have ad vanced 20 per cent. It is thought tbat the war in Europe will cause a great demand for breadstuffs and medicines, and hence the rise. ONLY Two DOLLAR.-To gratify the views and suit the pockets of many citizens in the County. we have deter mined to reduce the pjice of the HERALD from $2.50 to $2. The many who fre quently say that if the price were lower they could~afford to take it, have now the opportunity afforded them, and we look for a considerable increase of sub scribers. It will be borne in mind that this means cash in advance, and it must not be expected that we will wait three, six and even twelve months--the offer being only to those who pay when they subscribe. NEWBERRY DISTRICT BILE SOCIETY. -This Society will hold its regular an nual meeting in the Methodist Church at 8 o'clock P. M., on the fifth Sunday of this month, being the 29th. There will be an address of ten minutes, and the business of the Society will be at tended to. The chief feature, however, will be thy singing by the choirs of the different churches. The exercises will be made interesting, neither long nor monotonous. The people of the town and county are invited to attend, and requested to be prompt, as the exercises will begin precisely at 8 o'clock. The subscription price of the New berry HERALD is reduced from $2.50 to 2.00 per annum--Cash in advance. GONE Out.-Another radliCal can die has been extinguished. He was not a Ibig light, but he thought he was. Thursday, Trial Justice J. W. Watts of Laurens sent down a warrant for the arrest of Ira W. Rice, the negro ex Clerk of Court for Laurens County. Rice had been holding over after the late election, waiting for a recognition from Hayes, or Chamberlain or some body else. The recognition not coming, Rice locked up the papers and seal of the office, put the key in his pocket and absquatulated. When the Laurens train ce down Thursday his ex-Clerkship was aboard, on his way to Columbia. Fortunately just now there ar- n< Bologna sausages in this market, but our readers will profit by the following which may be remembered at soml( other time: "A South Brookville man tried the effect of blue glass on a link of bologn sausage yesterday. In five minutes il commenced to hump in the middle in ten, the word "Ma-ri-ar" was dis tinctly heard. and in fifteen the eat wa; himself again and out on the wood house i oof, calling joyously for his oIl sweetIearts."-Br7ookeille JTfersonian.

The following transfers of Real Estate were recorded during the week jusl closed: E. S. Coppock to Wm. H. Blats, 3-1 acre, 87-. Andrew J. Bedenbaugh to Jas. A. Crotwell, lot fronting on Pratt-st. 45 feet 5 in.hes and running back to Boyce. st., $2,000. Sampson Thomas to Jas. C. Leahy, 1-2 acre, 8180.' H. C. Moses, Clerk of Court, to C. M. Williams, 180 acres, $1341. Wm. Goldsmith to David Henry Wheeler, 100 1-4 acres, $400. Where shall we buy our Crockery. Glass and China Ware, and other arti eles indispensable in every well regu lated family? This is an important question, but fortunately it can be an swered without difficulty. Buyers, and more especially the ladies who Ihave largest experience in such things, like to make selection from a stock which is extensive in variety; and they areright, for they can do better than from a limited assortment which afoids no chance to gratify their tastes or suit their pockets. At Messrs. Kingsland & Heath's elegant store in Columbia every possible desire can be satisfied their stock is one of the largest and best selected in the State. Send an or der to, or visit them at their store op posite Columbia Hotel. 17-tf. The subscription price of the New berry HERALD is reduced from $2.50 to $2.00 per annum-Cash in advance. A Washington letter writer says "Miss Waite, daughter of the Chief Justice, has the rare faculty of being able to talk to several people at once." Rare faculty! Oh, ignoramus! did you never hear a woman on-moving day tell the drayman how to carry the bureau down stairs. scream instructions to the woman taking up the carpet. yell at the boy packing the china, tell the hired girl what to do with the tinware and stove furniture, shriek her husband into cold sweat, for euptying half a bushel of soot out of the stove pipe on the par lr floor, sniff at the woman across the street who wasn't going to move and was looking on, and scold seven children for nine different things, with one and the same wag of her flexible tongue? Rare faculty, indeed !-E.ccange. THE YANCE PonTRAT.-The hand some lithograph portrait of Governor Vance, of North Carolina, bearing the autograph of this distinguished gentle man, has found its way to our sanctum through the kindness of Mr. J. S. Tom linson, of the Piedmont Press, Hickory, N. C. It is a fine picture of a hand some man, andl of one who holds the same high place in the hearts of the citizens of the Old North State that our own beloved Hampton does in South Carolina, and a picture which every admire: of the hetoic and patriotic will desire to possess. We have no doubt that Hampton's picture hangs uponi thousands of walls in our sister State, and so should Vance's adiorn our walls. Those desirous of securing a copy are referred to advertisement in another place. In the meantime call and ex amine ours. PERSONAL.-We had the pleasure last week of visits from W. S. Fraser and J. C. Squier, the former travellino for the Charleston Journal of Commerce, the latter for the Columbia Register. Glad to learn that they are increasing their subscription lists; for both papers are well worth their price and deserve the liberal support of the public. Trhe many friends of Dr. Mayer, Jr., will be glad to knowv that he is enjoy ing fine health in Newv York. After leaving that city he will spend a few weeks in Baltimore at the Eye and Ear Infirmary. He is going to learn it all before he comes back. Maj. Baxter has been afflicted several weeks and confined to his bed. We are glad to learn that he is improving, and hope soon to see him out again. Lieutenant-Governor Simpson passed through Newberry Saturday, on his way to Columbia. Gleaves has resigned all claims to the position of Lieutenant Governor. D)r. Won. E. Pelhamn returned from2 Columbia last Saturday, after an ab sence of nearly two weeks, where h( had been in unremitting attendance or his father, whose lamented death we notice in another column. Our sym pathies are extended him and his famnily in this sadI bereavement. The world-renowned D)r. Saul is it town. Mr. L. A. East left Newberry to-day for Texas. CAUGo.T OUT ON THlE Frs.-On the down traiin Saturday was a neatly and stylishly dressed negro, who got of here. His face had a familiar look, anc he was thought to be one of a gang o: four that had a fight with the police ir the Council room when brought up foi trial there a year or two ago, for whiel: they were sent to the penitentiary foi six~ months. Capt. Gaillard, Chief o: Police, arrested the negro Mondal morning, and found on him a fine goli watch worth $200 and a chain worti: $60. The negro gave his name as Jin: Brown, alias Wmi. Jfohnson. Capt G. tegraphed to the Columbia Chief o: Police, to see if he could learn anythmng about his man, and received the follow ing reply: COLUMBIA, S. C., April 23, 1877. J. TI. Gaillard : Johnson is an escaped convict. Twen. ty-fivc dollars reward, and if the watel proves to be ID. B. Miller's this is fifty dollars reward. Bring him dlown to morrow with the watch. L. J.

Weather fine again. We commence this column with fe: and trembling, It is so very dull and there is so litt to write about. If printers were as fortunate as mi liners all would be right. Bonnets, ribbons, furbelows and flov ers are always in order, although som times disorder comes from them. Editors and printers, however, kno that newspapers are not quite so pop, lar. Why is this thus? Will some our lady readers answer? We said above that it was dull, bi now make exception as to that part Pratt Street where new buildings a rising from the ashes. It is a famot place of resort, and - If anybody hereafter wants to fin anybody, just let him or her go whei the bricks are being laid. HIe will I there. Everybody is wondering why of friend Mr. Smith does not build him fine hotel on his corner. "Sociables" are the rage. Chicken snatchers abound. Mr. R. T. Reagin has cotton up, an has finished planting. Straw hats and linen coats are mal ing their appearance on the streets. And that suggests that soda watc will soon be in season. Some of our ambitious gardeners r< port a few ripe strawberries. Th,re will be a good crop of brand peaches. Plums will be abundant, and tb Doctors are happy. We venture this much on Spring it is coming, there is no mistake abot it. In consequence of the heavy rair farmers are a little behindhand in plow mg. Persons who go to the Singing Schoc as spectators should not talk while i the Hail. A merchant brought a long-legge grasshopper into our sanctum the othc day for an Egyptian locust. Fruit trees are heavily loaded, and no untimely frost occurs the crop wi be very large. Singley's buildi^g is growing up wit the rapidity of a house on fire. Mi Clark Waring is a moving man. The school boys and girls are talkin now about May parties and anticipat a good time. A good receipt for making a ma happy-one for a year's subscriptiont the HERALD. The heavens were hung in black o Thursday, and there were several A pr showers. There was a large attendance at th Churches Sunday-the ladies have gc their new Spring hats. These beautiful moonlight nights at calculated to call forth all the later emotions of lovers. The entertainment of the Silver Col net Band will be given Friday night< next week. The Band will play in the grove i rear of Mr. B. J Ramage's, Thursda afternoon, at half-past five o'clock, ir stead of Wednesday. Farmers are very busy now in gel ting in their seed. and all the indies tions favor the idea of a bountiful hai vest. The Abbeville Press & Banner say "D)on't let your children know that yc cheat the printers." They are boun to find it out. We are pleased to see the signs< the late fire fast disappearing from Di Fant's store, under the skillful manil ulations of the workmen. Mr. Simmons' bill of fare is pr< nounced by good judges to be A No. He knows that the road to a man heart runs through his stomach. Now that gold is'down so very lov we would advise everybody, and esp< cially poor p)eople, to lay in a larg supply for future use. Evening dresses in Paris are wor very short in front, with a long comi tail behind. Newberry must not be b< hind Paris. Judging by the qumet of our street the farmers are following Govern< IHamplton's advice by attending strict] to business. We trust that corn ente> largely into their calculations. The season is near at hand when th school boy will carry his basket an .books in his left hand and a stone his right, while he keeps a sharp lool out along the fence for the festive Ii: ard.

THE Ass IN THE LION's SKIN.-No fable of Asop's is more familiar than that of the ass who assumed the skin of the lion, and thus attired n' succeeded in frightening all the beasts of ie tiel, who fled f, ot him in dismay, At la,t he rushed upon a fox, and not satisfied with having the appearance of a lion, he tried to in.itate the lion's roar. The fox recognized the voice of the jackass, though his body was concealed by the lion's t skin. "Ha, ha!" said the fox; "if you had kept your mouth shut I never should have recognized you." It is the same with many low-grade starch manufacturers, evieu they it tell you that their worthless products a,e as f good as Duryeas'. The verdict of the entire world in every land where they have entered e ' into competition is, "That Duryeas' Satin i Gloss Starch is not equaled by any in exist ence, and Duryeas' Improved Corn Starch has no rival." All respectable grocers keep d them. -C m----w e ECLECTIC MAGAZINE.-The May number of this sterling old magazine is an exception ally good one, containing two papers from the ir first number of The Nineteenth Century, the a new periodical which has attracted so much attention in England, together with a varie', of others from the standard magazines an" reviews. The leading article is a deeply in teresting analysis of Dr. Carpenter's "Mental Physiology," in which many of the most curious mysteries of mental life and bodily d organization are laid bare. This is followed by a remarkably entertaining and withal instructive paper entitled "The Gossip of History;" and this, in turn, by the third paper of a highly interesting series on "Turkish Ways and Turkish Women." r "Suns in Flames" Is one of Mr. R. A. Proc tor's most brilliant astronomical studies; and the sixth paper is a weighty essay by the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, "On the Influence of Authority in Matters of Opinion." The remaining contents comprise three chap Y ters of Mrs. Oliphant's interesting story of "Young Musgrave;" ''The Singer's Prize;" "French Novels and French Life;" the sec e ond of Dr. Carpenter's lectures on "Mesmer ism, Odylism, Table-Turning, and Spiritual ism;" "Alice;" "Constantinople: A Sketch - during the Conference:" "Proposed Resump it tion of the Vatican Council;" and Prof. Croom Robertson's explanation of "How we Come by our Knowledge." s The embellishment is a fine steel portrait of Mr. T.
