70'R THE UZRALD. ONLY. Only a drop of water tit Had left the Ocean blue, And fell upon the drooping flower, Gave it its brilliant hue; The drop was very small, but still It had a mission to fulfill. Only a stray sunbeam that pierced A wretched, squallid home It cheered the weary, stricken heart, And scattered all its gloom; The walls assumed a brighter hue, While lighter stilt life's burden grew. Only a gentle breeze! But yet It fanned an aching brow, It bore the burdened sigh away, Caused by a broken vow; It gently dried the weeping eyes, And stilled th sea of rising sighs. Only a frown ! But still it left A deep and las::ng smart, The grieving lips, the tearful eyes Revealed the aching heart; The little orphan's troubled breast Heaved like a raging billow's crest. Only a smile ! But ab! it made The darkest troubles bright. It caused the pallid cheek to glow Like beams of morning light; The shiv'ring child forgot the cold, That smile was dearer far than gold. Only one glass! How many homes Have felt its blighting breath! How many noble lives .to it Owe their eternal death ! And oh ! how many burning tears Flow with the tide of rolling years! Only a girl! A tiny thing, But still she can undo The firmest heart that ever beat, And make you sing "Boo-hoo I" But by a smile or even a kiss Can quite complete your earthly bliss. AxoN B. LINDsEY. Decatur, Ga., September 19th, 1877. General M. C. Butler. It will not be long before South Carolina is again represented in the House and Senate by the best and ablest men in the State. General Butler, who was elected by the legally organized Legislature, will in all pro bability be admitted to take his seat as Senator. The fraud, who claims a seat by reason of his election by a body that never had any legal exis tence and that fell to the ground as soon as the military prop was re moved, cannot be admitted. Should the legality of General Butler's elec tion be called into question by reason of informality or illegality in the or ganization of the present Legislature, that question can be easily met. The Legislature that elected General But ler exercises all the functions and powers that belong to the law making .department of the government. There is no longer any question as to the rightful government. There is but one in the State, and that is recog nized by the Executive, Legislative and Judicial Departments of the Fed eral Government. General Butler is entitled to his seat as the Senator elect from South Carolina. Should the Senate refuse to admit him it must declare a vacancy, because it cannot admit Corbin. In the event of a vacancy being declared Gen. But Ier will be re-elected by the Legisla ture without opposition. lie deserves well of the State. His services de serve to be rewarded. In the Senate he would make for himself a record of which all South Carolinians would feel proud. Gen. Butler is a man of ability. Hle will render his State as faithful service in the Senate as our own gallant Gordon. He is not an impracticable extremist, but a man of liberal, conservative and practical views. He will be true to his State and his section, but, at the same time, he will be just and generous, and comprehensive in all his views. Re pubrican Senators will find Gen. But ler to be as patriotic as Gov. Hamp ton. Although the Senate is very close and the Republican party is ap prehensive of the Demaocrats obtain ing control, we have strong hopes that a sufficient number of right thinking Republicau Senators will vote with the Democrats to seat Gen.

The Herald is in the highest respect a Fam ily Ncwsk:aper. devoted to the material in terests of the people of this County and the State. It circulates extensively. and as an Advertising medium offers unrivalled ad vantages. For Terms, see first page. Railroad and Taxes. The Temperance Standard, Pros perity, is not in favor of a new rail road. It says: "We fear that the new railroad will not be built yet awhile. We do not think that our people can bear taxation just at this time for that purpose. We have enough to 1 pay tax for now, and it would be much better to wait until our peo ple get more accustomed to the workings of an honest State and County Government before we call upon them to drain their .already empty pockets to build a railroad. Before such a t2.x is levied, there should be an election by the people, to ascertain whether or not they are willing to have an extra tax imposed upon them for the purpose of building the proposed road, and if the people unanimously call for the tax, then let it be levied." Such reasoning as that would put an end to all progress. Of course the road would cost money, and if it is to be built at all it should be built by the aid of all the people in the .county ; for all will share in its benefits. Taxation is the only sensible way of building a railroad nowadays. Nobody ex pects to take stock and get big div idends, as in the early days of rail roads. As to the county's not being able to build it "just at this time," this is just the time it should be built, if ever. As we have repeated over and over, the trade of Newberry is growing less every year, and when Greenwood gets her new road, Laurens hers, Edgefield hers, and Ninety-Six hers, where will New berry be as a market ? Our trade once diverted into other channels it will be impossible to wean it backc. Retain it while you have it. Build another railroad, bring down the exorbitant freight charges to a reasonable basis, and Newberry will be the best market in the State above Charleston. Let matters go on at the present rate, and she will soon be low down in the scale. The Railroad Question. ] Those who oppose building at new railroad by means of taxationt say that if the question is put to e the vote of the county it will be 1 carried, and carried by the votes of the colored people. They fear, there- ~ fore, th'at the advocates of the road; are attempting to "put up a job" on them. But this is a mistake. ~ As anxious as they are for the road they would not be willing to im t pose a tax upon the county against ( the wish of a majority of the pro* pety-holders. If the Legislature should order an election on the question of tax or no tax to build the road, it would be perfectly proper for both the advocates and the opponents of the scheme to gain all the colored votes they could on their side. For this rea son we think the opinion of the majority of the tax-payers of the county should be ascertained be fore tile Legislature is asked to or-t der the election. This can easily be done. Let each township send up a delegation to a County Rail road Convention, and it can then r be determined whether the proper ty-holders are willing to be taxed for this object. The advocates of the road desire that everything shall be done fairly and squarely, and that those who pay the taxes should decide this matter. t Wiliamston Fernale College.

The cotton ales foot up in round numbers 300 >aies, which was brought to market )y farmers from the counties of Green rille, Laurens, Abbeville, Anderson, )conee and Pickens, and two bales rm Edgefield. The sale of goods in exchange was 1roportionately large, and the day's usiness is an indication of what is to )c done in Greenville during the sea ;on. Why not?

A SCENE IN COURT.-From the Charleston News and Courier of the 8th we get the following particulars of a transaction in the Orangeburg Court the 6th. T. H. Cooke, the presiding Judge, took offense at some remarks made to the Court by Mr. A. B. Knowlton, a member of the bar, and issued a rule against him to show cause why he should not be at tached for contempt and his name stricken from the roll of Attorneys. When the Court adjourned for the day Mr. Knowlton stepped up to the Judge and asked him if he would ac cept a challenge. The Judge replied, "With you ? No, sir !" Mr. Knowl ton then said, "Well, you are a d-d coward." The Judge then went be fore a Trial Justice and had a war rant taken out against Mr. Knowlton. Editorial Review.

NEW YORK, September 27.-A petition, which has already been signed by more than nine hundred New York bank presidents, merchants, manufacturers and business men gen erally, and which urges the Senate to confirm the course of the House of Representatives in repealing the bank rupt law, is now in circulation in this city. The petition itself is a remark able document, containing as it does the autograph signatures of many of the most eminent men of the mnercan tile community of New York. The reasons assigned for the proposed re peal are that the law affords an op portunity for fraud, and that it is dif ferently interpreted in different places. FOR THE HERALD. 'Our Washington Letter. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 3, 1877. Senator Jones, Chairman of the Cor.gres sional Silver Commission, and Geo. M. Weston, of Maine, its efficient Secretary, are revising the report submitted to Con gress at the close of the last session. Mr. Weston is one of the "Old Defenders," as they say in Baltimore, of silver. He con tributed to various publications, at the time demonetization was voted, articles in op position thereto, and has since been a fre quent writer on the subject. Hie expresses great confidence in an early return to the "double standard." To-morrow (Wednesday) morning, Hon. John Lynch sends out the first number of his Administration daily, The National Union. He has leased the Globn office for five years, and that has a business look cer tanly. To offset this gain to the A dminis tration, A. M. Clapp, late Public Printer, has bought the National Republican, the old proprietor going out yesterday. Clapp says he shall run the paper in the interests o[ genuine Republicanism. Republicanism just now is a wide and various, not to say cracked and inharmonious object. Talbot, of Maine is set down as managing man of the National Union editorial force. Secretary Schurz is making a rigid inves tigation into the cause of the late fire in the Patent Office building. The loss is consid erable, but it is not now thought that the walls will have to be taken down. A speciaj effort is being made to render our public buildings fire-proof. Only one of them is thought to be so-the new State Depart ment. An expert says the burning of a fraction of the combustible material in the Capitol would destroy its dome. This enor mous dome is of iron, and as the sun shines on it from the east, south or west, the ex pansion of the metal on its different sides causes a sensible deviation in its direction. Its support could not be burned out, but the heat of a conflagration like t)at at the Patent Office under any portion of it would throw it out of shape forever. Frederick A Sawyer, contrary to general expectation, was convicted last week of causing, while Assist:ant Secretary of the Treasury, the payment of a claim known to him to be fraudulent. Sawyer is a Mas sachusetts muan who went South after the war, and subsequently represented South Carolina in the United States Senate. HIe will have a new trial probably. It is only fair to say that there seems to be a reason able chance for doubt as to his criminal intention. Another case, known as the Witowski fraud, follows in the Criminal Court. In this a Pennsylvania Member of Congress is alleged to be mixed up. It is said also, that the Grand Jury will find true bills against one or more army, officers for swinding the Government and taking pay for it in connection with the famous patent for "preventing moth and mildew." The accuser,-the man who gives up his "pals" in this case--is Donn Piat.t, of the Sunday Capital. lIe claims that the twenty odd Gokil,ing was no doubt savage, and coarse and indiscreet, nud Curiia is all those things that Conkling, in his wrath, painted him. I allude to the matter only to congratulate the Senator on being the only live politi cian of eminence who has had the courage to express himself plai::Iv. Other Senators, feeling just..s he dues toward the Adminis tration, and unable to secure for their friends Cabi aet positions or other first-class posts, have smothered their resentment and their convictions and taken for Jistribution + such clerkships and missicns to small na tions as were vouchsafed them. Coukling is a better man than any of them, just as Zach Chandler was a better because a bold er rogue than those who are now secretly driving Ohio clerks home to vote. That eminent statesman, Senator Sharon of Nevada, writes that owing to private business he 'viil not be able to attend the coming session of the Senate. This is get ting monotonous in his case. Without study ing minutely the value of the Senator's services, compared with those of other Sena tors, it may be suggested that the tteory of our Government is that each State shall be represented in Congress by at least two Senators. Senator Sharon can secure this in either of two ways-by coming here as Senator or resigning and allowing some one else to come. Nevada should have remained a Territory ten or fifteen years longer, and would but for a supposed political necessity; but having been admitted she should insist on her constitutional representation.

An oriental traveller describes this busy scene, witnessed on historic shor-es. "Our steamer landed on a beach which was the port of Antioch, whe'-e the disciples ,vere first called Christians. There was no town at. the water's edge, no people, no wharf. The passengers and the merchandise were put ashore in ]ighters, which ran up into the sand. A troop of camels, with their dri'. ers, lay on the beach, ready to transfer the goods into the interior. Among the articles landed were boxes marked 'DR. J. C. AYER & Co., Low ELL, MASS., U. S. A.,' showing that they contained medicines and whence they came. These with other goods were hoisted on the backs of camels, for transportation to Antioch.

Many of those medicines have l'.d their day, and we hear no moe of them. Their proprietors have made fortunes, not so much from the curative pow ers and virtues of their mixtures, as from the notoriety given them by advertising, by which people were made to believe all the good that was said of them. A preparation is now before the public which is now becoming very popular, and is known as B3rad?ield's Female Regulator, put up hy Dr. J. Bradfield, of At lanta, Ga., at S1.50 per bottle. Such is its curative virtues that it has gained wide spread popularity all over the country where i t has been made known, and it is being intro duced everywvhere.
