The specimens were from a lot of one hundred skins -which went into the vats just six weeks go.___ _ GREENVILLE MILITARY INSTITUTE. Capt. J. B. Patrick, long and well known as Principal of the Greenville High School, has happily converted j& into a Military School, and under very favorable auspices, and has issued his circular announcing the opening on the 10th of September. Tuition, including use of Text-books, School Stationery, Boar, TLights, Fuel and Washing only 85 REWARD.-The senior editor o this paper will pay the above rewarc for proof to convict the fiend who cu his cow on Monday afternoon. It wa! the most dastardly and fiendish act thal we have known to be perpetrated ir this community, and the rascal who di it deserves the severest penalty of th law. THE MAUKET HOUsE.-Work on th( market house will begin soon. The building is to be 60 feet long, and 14 feet wide, with 8 feet of the roof pro jecting over, supported by columns, making the entire width 22 feet. It is to be built of brick, will stand on the lot at present occupied by the stalls, and when finished will he an ornameni to the town. At a meeting of the Commissioned Officers of the 1st Regiment S. C. V. T., the Military Barbecue was postponed from the 5th to the 19th September next. The Captain of each Company is r quested to be present at a meeting to be held at the office of Messrs. Pope & Fair, on the 10th of September, at 1C o'clock A. M. R. C. MAYmN, 35-it Secretary. TIME CHANGED.-Two notices have already been made in this paper as to the time the Iopewell community would hold its camp-meeting. We are requested now to state the meeting will commence on Saturday evening before the first Sabbath in September. This may be considered positive as the notice comes from headquarters. The meet. ing it is thought will be a large one. The members of the Newberry Brass Band are happily in possession of new instruments, with which they prolnise the citizens who kindly assisted in pro curing them the very best of musical entertainment in the future. They re turn hearty thanks for the help so gen erously afforded. The young men com posing the band deserve credit for their perseverance under difficulties sufli cient to have broken up the organiza tion. BARBECUE.-The neighborhood bar becue and social near Mrs. Chesley Herbert's on Wednesday last was a most delightful affair, and called to gether a large number of people from the surrounding countiy. The dinner was abandant and of the best, the hash especially calling for praise. One pleas ant feature in connection-there was no speaking, consequently no politics, and everything passed as meriy as a mar riage bell. The people of the New Chapel neighborhood are noted for hos pitality and cleverness. (OmCKENS- AND SNAKES.-Ed Brad ley, colored, was up before Trial Jus tice Carlisle Friday for stealing guineas, chickens and a dog from Mr. Frank Johnson, the night of the 20th. Ed came into Court on crutches, with his foot dreadfully swollen and bandaged. While lying out in the woods the night after the stealing from fear of being caught, a highland moccasin bit him on the foot. He was convicted and sent to jail-where he wvill have much better attention than he would have outside. He is in no danger from the bite. THE COLI.OED CAMP MEETING at Blandusian Spring has been going on since Wednesday, the 14th, without in termission. About fifteen preachers have been in attendance, and the inter est manifested has been deep and pow erful. Fifty persons have been convert ed and have joined the churches c, :,heir choice, while hundreds of others are more or less affected. We hope it will work for good to all who attend. At this time the meetings are held in the open air at the Spring in the afternoon, and at night in the colored Methodist church in town. THE REv. H. W. KUuNs.-We an nounce to-day with deep regr-et the de parture of this distinguished divine for the new home and new charge to which he has been called. Regret and sorrow are universally felt by the community with whom he has been identified in closest interest for the past sx years every class of society and business hav ing felt the influence of his zealous and intelligent efforts in the advancement of the public weal, religiously, socially and financially. No man has worked harder for NewbeiLy than he, and we but utter the sentiment of the whole people in saying well done, good and faithful servant. The re-location of Newberry College in the town is large. ly due to his indomitable energy, and the community appreciate it-Luther Chapel too has cause for rejoicing even in this hour of sad parting that his la. bors in that direction have produced good fruit. We commend him to the good people of Westminster, Maryland, and wish him and his interesting and amiable family a pleasant and safe jour ney and a happy home in the new field to which they go. AN UNDENIABLE TRUTH. You deserve to suffer, and if yor lead a miserable, unsatisfactory life it this beautiful world, it is entirely youm own fault and there is only one excusi for you,-your unreasonable prejudict and skepticism, which has killed thou sands. Personal knowledge and com mon sense reasoning will soon shov you that Green's August Flower wil cure you of Liver Complaint, or Dys pepsia, with all its miserable effects such as sick headache, palpitation c the heart, sour stomach, habitual cos iveness dizzines of the head, ner f THE COUNTY CONVENTION. In giving the proceedings of the Con vention we shall confine ourselves ex clusively to undisputed facts. We do this in deference to the position that we occupy. The writer of this is one of the seven contesting delegates from the Young Men's Democratic Club, and is among those known as the "Suber fac tion" in contradistinction to what is known as the "Johnstone faction," into which th, County is divided. It is in view of these facts, and~in view of the further fact that nothing should be said to add to the excited state of the public mind, and not from any indisposition to say what we think, that we do this. The County Democratic Convention convened in the Court House Thursday, the 22nd instant, for the rrpose of nom inating candidates for .he Legislature and the various County offices, Presi dent W. D. Hardy in the Chair. There were contesting delegations from certain. Clubs in Townships Nos. 1, 4, 9 and 11. The chief interest cen tred on the contest from No. 1. Seven delegates appeared from the Young Men's Club, known as Club 2, and four from the Carolina Club. T. J. Lips comb, of No. 1, moved that the matter be referred to the County Executive Committee, and that in case the member of that Committee from any Township wene not present the delegation elect one of their number to fill the vacancy for the occasion. G. M. Wilson, of No, 10, moved to amend by referring the matter to a Committee on Credentials to be composed of one delegate from each of the eleven Townships, to be ap pointed by the Chair. The amendment was adopted and the Committee was authorized to send for persons and pa pers, The Chair appointed as the Com mittee the following; From No. 1, R. L. MeCaughrin; No. 2, J. 0, Turnip seed; No. 3, Jno. T. Bynum; No, 4, J. S. Spearman; No. 5, J. W. Folk; No. 6, T. M. Neel; No. 7, Jas. R. Irwin; No. 8, Jno. T. Peterson; No. 9, A. H. Wheeler; No. 10, Geo. M. Wilson; No. 11, T. H. Crooks. The Committee re tired and after taking testimony from the contesting delegations returned, and made a majority and a minority report. MAJORITY REPORT. "We recorumend that the Young Men's Democratic Club be entitled to four votes and the Carolina Club be entitled to three votes, and that the delegates first on the list of each of the two dele ]gations be entitled to seats as delegates. J. Win. Folk, Geo. M. Wilson, A. H. Wheeler, J. S. Spearman, Jno. T. By num, T. H. Crooks, J. 0. Turnipseed, T. M. Neel." MINORITY REPORT. "We, the undersigned minor ity of the Comnmitte. 'n Credentials, beg leave to report to tais Convention that we can not agree to the majority report, and recommeQnd that all the delegates from the Young Men's Club be seated. Jno. T. Peterson, J. R. Irwin, R. L. Mc Caughrin." In regard to No. 4, the Committee reported that they recommend the seat ing of the five original delegates. In regard to Club 2 of No. 11, they recom mended the seating of the five delegates present. In regard to Club 1 of No. 9, they recommended that H. C. Moseley be seated. The Convention took up the reports on No. 1. A motion was made to adopt the majority report. Leave was granted to two members of each of the two contesting delegations to present andI argue their ca'ses. J. E. Brown, of the Carolina Club, and . L. Schumpert, of the Young Men's Club, were heard. The facts of the case may be briefly stated. On Mon day night, 19th inst., the Young Men's Democratic Club met in Thespian Hall, in obedience to the call of its Executive Committee, J. E. Brown, President, in the Chair, and L. W. Jones acting Secretary. E. C. Jones, Chair man of the Executive Committee of tbe Club, read the report from the Execu tive Committee of the Township which met the 17th to apportion the Township delegation; by which apportionment this Club was allowed seven delegates. The two factions into which the Club was then divided each nominated seven delegates. The ballot was taken, with the following result: 0. L. Schumpert, 53; T. C. Pool, 54; W. H. W allace, 53; J. Y. Culbreath, 52; L. K. Vance, 52; L. W. Simkins, 55; A. C. Jones, 51; J. E. Brown, 51; G. S. Mower, 48; Geo. McWhirter, 49; 0. B. Mayer, Jr., 49; R. Y. Leavell, 47; Geo. Johnstone, 48; D. S. Pope, 51; E. C. Jones, 2; ,1; R. Moorman, 1; W. W. Hodges, 1; L. W. Jones, 1. It was then asserted by the Johnstone faction that there had been three illegal votes, that 104 ballots were cas.t whereas only 101 members voted. The Suber faction de nied this, and it was soon ascertained that 103 members certainly voted. Some said that James Hlornsby had voted, making the 104. The President there upon decided that Schumpert, Pool, Wallace and Simkins were elected. Mr. Hlornsby, being brought in, said that he had not voted. The President -then reversed his decision, and decided that there had been an illegal vote cast, and that there had been no election. No appeal was taken from this decision. Geo. Johnstone then moved to adjourn rto Wednesday night following, and to appoint a committee to investigate the - votes in the meantime. W. H. Wallace requested him to put his motion to ini f vestigate and his motion to adjourn - separately, as a motion to adjourn is - not debatable. This he declined-to do. TY~.. -. .j.2.. d. ..A ~ ..f~I~flVhdVfl1~A Brown, still remaining in the Chair When quiet was restored the Presiden arose and stated to those who remainc< in the Hall that, as he was in sympath with those who had withdrawn, h< thought it better that he should als< withdraw. He was asked to remain 0. L. Schumpert moved "that it is th< wish of the Club that the President, Mr. Brown, do keep the Chair," which was unanimously adopted by a rising vote. Still insisting the President wa excused. He called the 1st Vice-Presi dent, W. H. W-allace, to tbe Chair, and withdrew. Acting in accordance with President Brown's decision, that thern bad been no election, Mr. Schumperi moved that the Club go into an electior for seven -delegates-adopted. Messrs. Schumpert. Pool, Wallace, Culbreath, Vance, Simkins and A. C, Jones were then elected. The Johnstone faction, after with drawing, went to Mr. Mower's ofiice and formed a Club, which they named the Carolina Club. Wednesday night following they met in Thespian Hall and went into an election for four delegates to the County Convention. Messrs. Geo. S. Mower, Geo. John stone, D. S. Pope and J. E. Brown were then elected delegates-whole number of votes 39. We have stated the facts as acknow ledged by both sides. We have stated them with particularity, because they are important. What action the Coun ty Democratic Convention would have taken after having heard these facts it is impossible to say. Just at this stage of the proceedings occurred THE SHOOTING between Capt. D. A. Dickert and Col. Thos. J. Lipscomb, (we prefer to call them by these old army titles, though the former is now a Colonel in the State Militia and the latter is a Major-Gene ral.) Aboat the time that Mr. Schum pert was finishipg his speech a personal difficulty arose between these two gen tlemen. Shots were exchanged. Capt. Dickert receiving a wound in his right arm, the ball entering between the hand and elbow, coming out just above the elbow, and Col. Lipscomb being hit on the right breast, the ball glancing and causing only a slight abrasion. Capt. D. returned home Saturday morning, apparently doing well. Capt. Dickert, the offending party, has tendered proper apologies to Col. Lipscomb, which have been accepted, the dificulty lias beep settled honorably to both parties, and they are friends. Both gentlemen were gallant soldiers in the service of the Lost Cause, and two braver men never lived. We hope soon to hear that Capt. Dickert has recovered full use of his arm. FAREWEL. SERMON.-ReV. H. W. Kuhns preached his first sermon to the congregation of Ltither Qbapel the last Sunday in August, 1872. At that time the Church was far from prosperous; it had only forty members; the Sunday School numbered only thihteen; prayer meetings were almost unknown; the people had no parsonage; the Church building was sadly out of repair. The last Sunday in August, 1878, the 24th inst., he preached his farewell sermon. The contrast between the condition of affairs at the beginning and the close of his ministry here speaks volumes for his faithfulness and ability. The church building is in fine condition; the Sun day School numbers over seventy; the membership is one hundred and thirty one; prayer meetings are held every week; a neat and comfortable parson age has been erected; and the Church now rank~s among the very first in the Synod. Luther Chapel was completely filled Sunday to hear the Pastor's farewell sermon. He preached again at night to a good congregation at the Presby terian Church. THE PICNI AT TRINTTY.-The nleet ing of the County Lodge of Good Tem plars was held at Trinity Church the 21st. The Grangers in that section united with the Good Templars in pre paring an elegant picnic for the occa sion. Fully two hundred and fifty per sons were present, Mr. Vastine Her long, of Edgefield County, a vigorous and forcible speaker, who has done much good in his County, spoke first; followed by James Packer, Esq., in his usual happy style, and by Itev. J. C. Boyd, in a short and pithy address. The repast which followed was sump tuous and elegant. The next meeting of the County Lodge will be held at Prosperity, the 3d Wednesday in November. STATE FAIR.-We are under obliga tions to Col. T. W. Holloway, the effi cient Secretary and Treast,rer of the State Agricultural and Mechanical So. ciety, for a copy of the Premium Lisl for the Tenth Annual Fa*r, which wvil: begin in Columbia, on Tuesday, the 12th November. That the coming ex hibition will be the best since the wvai there is no question of doubt, and it i~ not too early .to suggest to our readeri that they consider the importance o. this meeting to the people of the State and that they make an early prepara tion for a place in the picture. Le every one get something ready and sent it down, Y. M. D. S.-"Are the Mental Ca. pacites of the Sexes Equal ?" wvas dis cussed by the Young Men's Debatini Society last Tuesday night at the Acad emy. The affirmative was warmly dis cussed by G. E. Werber, J. P. Kinard M. Foot, Jr., and E. J. Houseal; thi neative y WG Hol B. .T. Ram VARIOUS Still hot. Good rains. Mosquitoes increasing. Tcwn in a healthy condition. Continue the good work of cleansing, An ounce of preventive worth a pound of cure. Use disinfectants liberally, carbol ic, chloride of lime, &c. If there are any pig pens in town, we advise that they be opened and the pigs turned loose. "Green pears"-Young marriod folks. A lazy cook-one that "fritters' away her time. Cattle, sheep and horses should have salt at least once a week. There will soon be a raid on the Nor ern markets by our merchants. It is thought that the stock of goods this Fall will be very heavy. One thing is certain our farmers are in better condition than they were last yelr. The long, sad months of Summer, passed without trade or money, are a! most gone. Happy thought. Wednesday and Thursday last, politi cally. were the hottest days of the sea son. The seasons have been favorable for turnip sowing. Have you attended to it? Why is a dishonest bankrupt like ap honest poor man? Because they fail to get rich. A pail of milk standing ten minutes in a ~foul stable is nearly spoiled for wholesome use. If your foot is asleep, do not be alarm ed; the poet tells us that the soul is not dead that slumbers. The average consumption of beer in Charleston is twelve thousand eight hundred galsses. &Well, Major Billikins, what are you doing these days, may I ask?" "Doing, sir?-doing-damme-sweating!" For a basket of Scuppernong grapes we are indebted to our young friend Miss Babe McKellar, and To Mr. Jas. 0. Meredith for an op portune lot of nice vegetables, fom his Helena garden. And To Mr. J. W. Coate for a mess ^f new sweet potatoes of the favorite yam va riety. He thinks he will make a hun dreds bushels from a fourth of an acre. Verily they care for the editor. A medical journal says: Eat very l'it tIe meat this warm weather. Ice cream, pure milk and vegetables are much bet ter. When politicians sink all thought of self and study how to benefit the coun try, all danger of Radical rule will be oven. A young man who is given to athletic sports would like to know when the much talked of Anglo-Saxon race is to come off. If you haven't two dollars for a year's subscription, you can have the HERALD during the campaign for 50 cents. Ev ery member of a Club should avail him. self of this chance. To accomplish it-s work of death, na ture is obliged every year to invent new diseases, with new names, in order to keep ahead of patent medicines that cure all ills known. The place to take time is by the fore lock, we are told by an old adqge, and we have observed that the same sijould be remembered wheni taking hold of bumbleebees. Life Preserving rules: 1-Never dis turb a dog when he is eating. 2-Ne ver disturb an editor when he has an idea. 3-:-Never call upon a housewife when she is up to her elbows in a wvash tub. Peacon Pilkins said to himself, "Fal staff asks, 'what's honor?'yas though it was hard to tell. But let my wife sit behind another woman in church, and she'll tell what's on her in less than two minutes." A subscriber says that the laws of na ture are as much out of gear as some of the politicians. He submits with resig nation to the first because its providen tial-as the other is of the devil he has nothing to do with it, A conventionist said the difficulty was a big polit.4cal boil which swelled until it burst. We trust that large doses of the 'Preparation of Peace,' and 'Cald well's Drops,' may be taken that no such boils may grow on the body poli tic in future. During the shooting in the Conven tion Thursday a citizen of Smokey town refugeed in one of the Court house stove pipes. Two others not from Smokey town, before the smoke cleared away got through the side window down to the porch and shinned the pillars to the ground. Various others did not stand on the order of their going. People are looking forward with de lightful anticipations to the fall, when the abundant crops are gathered ance money is plentiful. Economy is the order now and it is right, that is in so far as concerns such articles as can be done without. But it is unwise policy to deprive oneself of things which are essential to comfort, and especially when they can be had for a mere trifle. How pleasant it is to sit around a well ap pointed table with bright new crockery, china and glass-ware, and on the other hand how uncomfortable if the sets are cracked or composed of odd pieces, no two of which are matched. ~Breakage ~viIl neenr in thA he~t regulated families, The Cramer Troupe advertised here for the 24th and 2Gth, came in ahead of time on Thursday last, and unfortunate ly at a time of great political excite ment, and in consequence the attend ance was so small that the management could not do otherwise than decline to give a performance. We regret this. Mr. Cramer had been solicited to visit Newberry, and his mortification must have been great, but we offer in excuse the great excitement of the day which no doubt influenced many ladies to re main at home. Mr. Cramer's repu tation and the versatile talent of his company are known and appreciated here, and would under favorable cir cmnstances insure him a good house. We suppose it would be useless to ask him to repeat his visit, but add this much, that had he announced a per rormance for the next night he would have had no cause to complain. TrAT "KAuKUS."-Some days pre vious to the meeting of the County Con vention circular letters were sent round .o the delegates in the County, signed by J. S. Hair, (by what authority we ire not able to say), requesting them to I meet at the Court House Wednesday, :he 21st, the day preceding the Conven ;ion. The delegates from the towns of gewherry and Prosperity were not in 7ited. Quite a number of delegates re )ponded to the call, many not knowing what was to be done. IMIost of them were opposed to apy such movement. Fhey didn't like the idea of caucuses ithin the party, nor the idea of array- r ng country against town. The meet ng was held over Mann's, (Webb's old c ,tore,) and T. W. Holloway, of No. 11, was called to the Chair. J. S. Hair, of No. 1, explained the object of the meet ng, which was to unite together the lelegates from the country. Capt. Jno. UcCarley, of No, 4, moved to adjourn ine die. This was seconded by W. R. Smitb, of No. 7, and carried almost .3 inanimously, amid applause. And 4 ,hus the "caucus" "flashed in the pan," 5 is it ought to have done, and as all such 6 ittempts will do. There are a few men who are silly enough to try to array ::ountry against town, but the great mass of the people have no sympathy with any such feeling. PERSONAL. Mr. C. W. Jones is on a short visit to Iis old home. Lancaster, his present residence, agrees with him. Mr. J. C. Squiers, the energetic trav elling agent of the Columbia Daily Beg ister, paid us a visit on last Wednesday. rhe 'nterests of that excellent paper are in good hands. Rev. G. W. Holland, President of the Newberry College, and Professor G. B. Cromer of the sawge institution were jn town last week~. Mr. J. Fletche~r Hobbs, student in the same, was also in town.. Also Mr. W. E. Lake, a graduate. Dr. S. F. Fant has secured the ser vices of Mr. Silas McIver, a graduate of Pharmacy. This gentleman is a Geor gian by birth, but hns been engaged in the Drug business in New York for sev aral years, and has a thorough know ledge of his profession. The Rev. Father J. R. Fullerton vis ited the members of his flock in this :own on Wednesday last, and celebra-t ;ed Mass. Father F. is a most estima- I ble gentleman, and makes a host of a Eriends by his unassuming and gentle nanners. Dr. Peter Robertson, we regret to state, leaves Newherry for his native :ity, Charleston, this week. His unas muming gentlemanly deportment during :he entire period of his stay here, and ~is close attention to baisiness, endeared im to the entire community. His go ng, too, is not all the cause we have ~or regret, as it involves the loss of one f Ne wberry's fairest daughters, Mrs. Alice, his young and accomplished wife. We wish them both success in their new home. gr Nomination~s no exceeding one square will be inserted for $5,- in ad vance. tf Commercfal NEWBERY, S. C., AMg, 27.-Cotton quiet --middling 10.
