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.

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.

is the-.mamnmoth colored steel fashion plate.
But, as a cotemnporary says, the stories, the

in "Peterson" is the best of its kind. For
1878 great improvements will be made.
Amon.g these will be a monthly Supplement,
containing a Ful!-sized Paper Patte n for a
lady's, or child's dress, thus giving to evet-y
subscriber twelve such patterns, extra, dur
ing the year. These patterns alone will be
worth thte subscription pr-ce. Five original
copy-right novelets will a'so be given, be.
sides a hundred shorter stories. But the
price will remain the same, viz-: Two Dol
lars a Year. the postage pre-paid by the pub
lisher. To Clubs the prices are even lower,
(postage also pre-paid,) viz :two copies for
$3.00, with a superb Mezzotint (24 inches by

ECONOMY 1S WEALTII,
Poor Richard savs. IC this be true, then it
js wis in every family to use Duryeas's Satin
G!oss Starch in preference to any other, be
cause it is the most economical ever manu
fa.ctured in the world. it is the most economn
ic.ai because it is the best ; it is the cheapest
because it is the bus:. It is purer, whiter,
and stronger than any other starch. It has
reecived1 the highest award ojver all comapeti
tors in the four quarters of the globe. Don't
bc deceived by your grocer. Ask for D)uryeas'
Improved Corn Starch for food, and Daryeas'
Sa:in Gloss Starch for laundry purposes, and
take no other.

ESWEDNESDAY. OCT. 10, 1877.
A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
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

IURRAI FOR GREENVILL:E.--eS
erday was a lively day among mer
hants and cotton buyers. 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? We pay Charleston
rices for cotton, and we sell goods as
ow as any market in the State.

"With you ? No, sir !" Mr. Knowl

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. Thus
the skill of the WVest sends back its
remedies to heal the maladies of popu
lations that inhabit those eastern shores,
whence our spiritual manna came."

These parents are sorely aliicted. The light
of their household is gone out; the joy of
their hearts has been taken from them-they
are sad and desolate. Sallie was an interest

the thought that she is now in Heaven.
The very falling of her step
Made music as she went;
A loving smile was on her lips,
A smile of sweet content.

BRADFIELD's FEMALE REGULATo.-We
have often read in the newspapers of thei
grand success of medical compounds put up'
at the North and elsewhere. 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

immense quantities of this medicine arc be
