Mr. James F. Harrington died Wed nesday night at the residence of his son in-law, Mr. W. E. Welch. near Silver Street. Mr. Jno. Mangum died at his bome near Bush River Church, Thursday, 16th. He had been a great sufferer for many years from a cancer on his face, which was the cause of his death. In all the relations of life he was a good man. We are' sorry to learn of the death of Mr. Frank P. Lipscomb, son of Senator Jas. N. Lipscomb, which occurred in Atlanta, Ga., the 7th instant. Mr. Lips comb was twenti-eight years old, and is spoken of by those who knew him well as a young mn of fine character sad noble qualities. Ie bad been in bad health several mooths, an4 his death, though not unexpected, was 4 sa afiction to his family, in which we extend our sincere sympathy.

The precise amount of the inheritance we have not learned, but do knew that it is a healthy sum, enough to make a man comfortable for life. Mr. B. left for Schroda, near Posen, Prussia, his native town, last week, and will be absent about three months, and in all proba bility he will take Paris with her great Exposition in his route, going or re turning.

The Sessions business will not be as ex tensive this term as usual. There is one colored man in jail to be tried for murder, another for forgery-the others, offences and number unknown, are out on bail. Most of the time will be given to civil business. The Jury Commis sioner, Auditor and Chairman of the Board of County Comissioners, met yes terday (Monday) morning and drew the following petit jury to serve at the ensuing term: J. H. Ruff, F. F.

GRENEKER, editor of the Newberry Herald is one of the oldest printers in the country, and there is no disputing the fact, he prints one of the best newspapers in the State.-Aiken Courier.Journal. Our friend McRAY looks through glasses darkly when he speaks of age; he has certainly lost his family record. Look it up grand-papa, and ask THOMP soN with a p, of the Keowee Courier, McKERRALT., of the Star, A. A.. Gi. BEr, H. L. DARR, Dad EVANS, Uncle Bon, and a score of others, who might easily remember when we were chris tened. He should have attended the last meeting of the Press Association Maj. Melchers was there. In conside ration of our reputation among the young ladies, we trnst the Press gang will prove to.the Courier-Journal man that he has done us' great injury. As to the compliment paid to the paper, modesty forbids a word. A WARNING.-It is time that the Be gister was protecting itself against those who request t?e gratuitous use of its news or adveriing columns for chari table or other purposes, and then have their job or other profitable printing ex ecuted in other establishments. In fh ture, we shall be forced to violate the golden rule so far as to do upt others as they do unto us. So speaks the Columbia Register, and we doubt not every newspaper publish er in the State has sufficient reason to endorse it. Quite a nmpber l4tely have expressed themselves on this and kin dred grievances, and as tired of doing a vast amount of work for nothing. It is time the Press show that -newspapers are not public property, subject to be preyed upon, and nsed as a convenience. Our experience has been, that the more Ohe publisher dpes of this kind of work the less is his paper appreciated when pay is demanded. We go in for pay, with the privilege of bestowing charity as the circumstances warrant. CONSCENCE..-The question is often aske4, hpw 1papy subscribprs bave you? It is generally asked through idle cu riosity. Nor do publishers answer it. So frequent of late has the query been propounded, that we have been led to think that there is a cause underlying, and the conclusion is that conscience is at wor4. About one of te4 who desire information only 4pe pukscibers, the nine are readers who belong to the class of borrowers. They feel that they are cheating the printer, but each one ima gines that he is the only guilty one, and judging by his great appreciation of the paper, and recognizing its claims on the public, thinigs that every body else acts on the square by paying for it. Tbis is a mistake ye sinful borrasers. You out-number the paying readers largely, and if one half of you would act on the square, the publisher would be able to sleep in peace. glease consider it, and let us have your names. We know of individuals and families who get all of their reading in this way. Any man can lay by four cents a week to pay for a year's subscription. THANKS To the Preston Literary Society of Wofford College for an invitation to their annual celebration on the 10th of June. Gen. E. W. Moise of Sumter will preside during the debate. Mr. D.

Chalmers of Mississip pi, will accept thanks for Congressional Record containing his .speech on the Texas Pacific Railway.

Prof. Holland has laid on our table a opy of the catalogue of the officers nd students of Newberry College. It is neatly printed and bears the imprint of the Patriot-Herald office, Marion, Va. Total numlber of students in the various departments, 67. The present term ends o1 the last Thursday in June. A LIVELY CHIASE AFTER A DESPE RAnO.-Friday. Connerly McSwain, olored, went into Mr. Wmn. C. John son's yard, while the male members were away, and threatened to beat a olored woman living in the yard. She shut the door against him and he broke open the window, tore up her clothing, smashed things generally, and then gave the woman a severe beating. Mr Jno. Bass, hearing the uproar, went over and stopped him. He was arrest ed and carried before Trial Justice Car lisle, who gave him the full benefit of the law-thirty days for malicious mis chief and thirty for assault and battery. Constable Hlolman carried him to jail, but when he got into the yard he made an efort to get away. The Constable drew his pistol and threatened to shoot, The prisoner jerked the pistol from his hand and broke. He ran through Mr. Smith's oat patch, down by the~ colored Baptist Church, up Scott's Creek to Cal houn Street, and up that street by the College to Mr. Jno. S. Fair's front gate, all the time a crowd after him and an other attempting to head him. There they overtook him. Mr. Jno. Lindsay had his Remington Rifle, unloaded, but with bayonet on, and Mr. Fair a navy revolver. These could scarcely bring him to terms. He drew his pistol on them and on Constables Holman and Lo-ac. He inally1 submitted, and PIcNic.-The picnic of the Newberr3 Rifles and the pupils of the Femal( Academy came off in Mr. Cline's grov Friday. Nearly everybody in towr was present, besides a large number oj ladies and gentlemen from the sur rounding country. A plank floor wa. laid under the shade of the trees and t lively .dance was kept up during the greater part of the day. The most in teresting feature of the occasion was the target shooting by the members of the Newberry Rifles. Twenty-two of the company entered the list for the prem inms, which were: For the best average of three shots, a white silk badge; see ond best, a red badge; for the best sin gle shot, a blue badge; for the poorest shot, a leather badge. The Committee of Judges were Capt. A. P. Pifer, Maj. Geo. W. Clotworthy and W. T. Tar rant, Esq. The target contained alter nate rings of black and white, the outer ring being forty inches in diameter, and there being fourteen rings, the "&buljls eye" pounting ifteen. Distance one hundred and fifty yards. The re sult of the shooting is as follows (count ing from the outer ring inwards,) the best possible shot being 15: Three Shots rfj lst..12nd 3d. _ J.S.

Mr. Hornsby also made the best single shot of the day. Messrs. Ramage, Lind say anc Mooggaq tied on 0. They tried it pyer, t th e following result: Ramage, 5, 7, 0; Lindsay, 8, 3. 7; Moorman, 0, 7, 18. So Mr. Ramage got the leather badge. He wears it with a good grace, having the consola tion to know that he has more room for improvement than any of the contest ants. The badges were presented to the successful competitors by Capt. Pi fer, with a few appropriate remarks. The dinner was a good one and abun dant. The party broke.up about sun set. After tea many of the young pec plo reassembled in "Thespian Hall" and resumed the "light fantastic," which they kept up till midnight. A choice lot of Teas, at H. A. Burris'. PERSONAL. Dr. J. P. J3race, who has been on a visit to Washington, retuirned last week. Rev. R. A. Fair is at Knoxville, Tenn., in attendance on the Presbyte. ran General Assembly. Prof. Kelly is now taking the 'phizzes' f the Clintonians. . Glad he's getting back in this direction. Jno. W. Furgerson, Esq., of Laurens, was in town several days last week on professional business. Capt. Whites, Tax Colle'etor, left for romer's on Monday, and expects to return Friday with a bag full of money. Brigadier Clotworthy lingered here many days, the pie nic, with its fried hicken and pretty girls, were the at tractions. Capt. Milledge Lipscomb, of Ninety. Six, a brother of Col. Thos. J. Lips omb, attended the picnic Friday and ad a good time. Mr. H. H. Blease has been heard from; he is in Tennessee, and on the track of Hill who ran off with his horse and drove himx to death. Mr. Screven, of Columbia, paid New berry a visit the latter part of the past week, and was much pleased with the people and the business look. Mr. L.'.4. East was in town last week and rmade a full hand at the pic nic. He thinks Newberry the nicest place in the world, and the girls the most cap. tivating. Rev. B. F. Porter, one of the chief movers in the Modus scheme was in Newberry a week ago, urging the colk ored people to emigrate to Liberia. Several colored people from this Coun ty tried that some years ago. Those who could came back, and their report was not calculated to induce others to go. The Newberry darkies don't take much stock in the scheme, Ask Wmn. Hawkins, one of the returned emigrants, what he thinks of Liberia. AN INSTITUTION.-There are many places of interest in Columbia, and vis itors to that city should not omit to visit any of them, Not the least in im portance and attractiveness is an insti tution on Main Street, immediately op. posite the Columbia, which for the con venience of the public is kept open from six o'clock in the morning until nine o'clock at night, every day in the week, Sundays excepted. It will well repay a visit. The great Paris Exposition no doubt will present greater attrac tions, but the distance and expense will prevent mnany from going there. Not so as regards the place alluded to here, and which is under the direction and control of Maess Kingslanr1 & Heath. VARIOUS The weather, Is warm again. Can't speak good of it When it freezes in May. And gives Cotton congestion, Which leads us to remark sadly, That that much mentioned 'old lady, hit the nail square on the head, When she said it would frost in y( merry month of May. Several witnesses in various parts o: the county testify that it did frost Mr. A. H. E. Sheck for one, he sa it three times. Col. Renwick testifies also. It might not have happened if the old lady aforesaid had been more pru. dent. In olden times the people used tc stone prophets for less offences ; we dc not recommend such treatment, Still something should be done to pre vent such things, and make people care ful how they talk, For it will never do to have an entire community demoralized and kept on tenter books, looking for an untimely frost wlich will knopk their garden4 into so many cocked hats. Uncle Solomon, Newberry's ex-post master of pleasant memory would ne ver have made such a prediction, he knew the consequenoes, Our apology for occupying so much space in the above remarks is that the occasion demanded it, and the old lady alone is to blamd. Next Wheat is not doing well, many far mers report rust. The cool we4ter and rains baye been productive of colds. Now is the time for the Herald, cot ton stalks are coming in. The Bush River pic-nic comes off Saturday, and promises to be a big af The genial Biggs is having a good time. He handles the ribbons in lively style. Heavy fall of rain on Sunday after noon, and so far as heard from it was general. The road between the Helena shops and Mr. S. C. Merchant's is in very bad condition. - One of our Bush river farmers has brought in a cotton shape. Where is T. M.P.? Never reserve -your good manners for company, but be equally polite at home and abroqd. Corn is looking fine, and stands where ever heard from are good. We may look for plenty of bread. Do you know that the world is bigger than you think it is, and you are smal er than you think you are? Two stub born facts. As the Herald is not paying a large dividend, we feel tempted to become a candidate for a good fat office. Please nominate us. A poor dog, placed in deep water, with a twenty-four pound sand-bag swung to his caudal appendage, is in as bad a predicament as a hungry country editor with too many unpaid subscrip tions on his books. Worms have cut down large areas of cotton in certain sections of this county. We hear of one farmer who has 'been compelled to re-plant a fifty acre field, and of another who had to replant a patch of ten acres. The community is called upon to as sist Dr. Strother Pope in mourning the death of his dog Rip, maliciously killed by shooting. Rip was gentle~ and kind, and like other dogs, his tail hung down behind. Next Sale-day we hope to see a large number of the patrons of the Herajd, and trust they will bring a few green backs with them. On that opcasioni it is also hoped that we will get a goodly number of new subscribers. Speaking of pig we are minded to say that Mrs. McK. furnished a noble spe cimen. As she never does anything by halves, the carcass was served whole, tail and all, and stuffed in felicitous style. The best eatists at the Pic Nic on Fri day last were a. high-standing lawyer, a millionaire dry goods dealer, a genial Baltimore drummer, a lively drover, and the Mollohon hardware dealer. Their capacities for roast pig cannot be excelled. The execution done by the half grown boys on the cold collation at Cline's grove was marvelous to behold. They were sharp in getting favorable posi tions, they always are. This is right, boys, take care of No. 1, what matters it if bigger and better looking folks have to stand at a distance. Chapter second Husband, who is that man at the gate ? Hush, my love, 'tis the candidate. Husband, why can't he wQrk like you? Has h e notling iat home to do? My dear, wheneyer a man is down, No cash at home, no credit in town, Too stnpid to preach andl too proud to beg, Too timid to roh and too lazy to dig, Then over his horse his legs he flings And to the dear people this song he sings; "Howdy, howdy, howdy-do? How is your wife, and how are you? Ah iit fits my fist as no other can. .The horny hand of tlie working man." AN ASTONISHING FACT. A large proportion of the American people are to-day dying from the effects of Dyspepsia or disordered liver. The result of these diseases upon the masses of intelligent and valuable people is ost alarming, making life actually a burden instead of a pleasant existence of enjoyment and usefulness as it ought to be. There is no good reason for this, if you will only throw aside preja. -iea4setcs~tk b die degtsandskpis, your frie advice o bottlestf Gren's Agurfis Flower oue speedy oreen's cegti.

A.-The Anniversary Cele bration of the Young Men's Christian Association of Nqsberry, came off in the Baptist Church, Thursday evening, the 16th. Mr. L. C. Moore, the retiring President, made a report of the work done by the Association since its organi zation here April 24, 1876. The Asso ciation, besides its Sunday afternoon services in their hall, have held reli gions services at Ebenezer and Helena -Ebenezer has been discontinued re centlv on account of regular preaching there. The Sons of Temperance have presented the Association with a book case and some books, which they pro pose to use as a nucleus for a library. Arrangements are now in progress for fitting up 4 reading-room. The, Asso clation has experienced great difficulty in raising the necessary funds to carry on its work successfully; whatever has been contributed has been done, with vet-y few exceptions, by the members themselves. The ladies have given the Association much eneQuragelent by at tending their meetings and by material aid. Addresses were delivered by A. C. Jones, W. W. Hodges, L. C. Moore, James Packer, R. H. Greneker and Rev. L. Broadus, FroAi . Aroadus' talk we learned the following facts: that the Y. M. C. A. was originated in London thirty-four years ago by George Williams; at present there are 1,200 Associations in this country, with an aggregate membership of over 1001000 there are A4 rpep 4pvtod exclusively to this work; theie Is an association in Jerusalem, one in Nazareth, one in Canton, China, and several in Australia.
