He Knew It.
Saturday last was remarkable for ex
tremne beat, and one of the passengers
n the up train if not all on board real
ized it long before reaching Newberry.
ne, however, showed his appreciation
f it by drawving a six shooter which he
placed in his lap with the remark that
e would blow a hole through the first
man who told him that "it was a hot
day." He had found it out and did not
want any information on the subject.

Bigger Than All.
Mr. E. S. Coppock, who has been car
rying his head so prodigiously high of
late on the extraordinary productions
of his garden, and especially in regard
to tomatoes, must now step down and
out, for Mr. Jas. 0. Meredith beats him
so badly that he will never be able to
come to the front any more. On Mon
day Mr. M. brought us a single cluster
of tomatoes, five in number, weighing
tree and a half pounds, one alone one
and a half pounds. There is no help
for it, friend C., so get up and dust.

A Veteran.
Mr. J. G. Hlouseal, of Liherty Hall,
who for many years has occupied an
honorable position on our mail book,
called in last week to renew. In the
course of conversation we learned that
he is almost on the eve of the celebra
tion of his golden wedding. On the
17th of October next he will have been

Messrs. J. N. Martin & Co., in this is

the best make. Now is the time to cast
about and decide whose make you will
have. This house will furnish you on

Notice the Call.
It is hardly necessary to emphasize
the call made upon old soldiers of the
Confederate Arimy to be present at a
meeting of the Survivors Association,
on Saturday, the 19th inst. If New
berry is to have a Monument to her
dead worthy of them, care must be ta
ken that no on-- is neglected. There is
no call for money at this meeting, but
it looks entirely to the perpetuation of
the names of the dead and other mat
ters of detail. Let there be a full at
tendance.
Honorable Mention.
In the list of the young lady pupils at
the late Commencement of the Valle
Crucis Convent of Columbia, to whom
honors were awarded, we have :,een
pleased to notice the name of a fair
daughter of Newberry, Miss Virginia
Montgomery. The honors awarded
were for Religious Instruction, History
and Geography, Philosophy and As
tronomy, Crayon Drawing, 'Cooking
and Behavior. We heartily congratu
late her and give her a cordial welcome
home.
Going Away.
Such of our readers as have not yet
availed themselves of a sitting to Prof.
Clark are advised to be on the alert, as
we have been told by him that he will
leave Newberry on the 15th of this
month for Cosar's Head, where he bas
a contract for making a number of
views. The Professor is a first rate
photographer, as is abundantly proven
by the specimens on exhibition at his
rooms, and we advise all who are in
want of good pictures to call on hini
ere he leaves. We are pleased, how
ever, to add that he will return in Sep
tember.
Every belle knowing the secret of
her success in society, is aware that

A Council Hall.
The question of tearing down tihe oUd
Council House and substituting it with
a two-story brick is being discussed. A
neat, large two-story building, of brick,
can be put there for about $5,000--such
a building could include stores and of
fices, (besides the Council Room,) and
the rent of which would help to pay for
it. It is thought that tihe S5,000 could
be paid in five or six years without
raising the taxes. There is a provision
in the charter of tile town prohibiting
the Council from going into debt except
by vote of two-thirds of tihe tax-payers.
In accordance with this provision the
Council will leave the matter to a vote
of the tax-payers at an early day.
The Fourth.
New berry don't jubilate worth a cent
on the fourth, and never did. The only
events of the day wore the sending off
of a number of tissue paper balloons by
Mr. Frank Parker, the closing of the
Bank and Helena Work Shops, a pro
cession of the Colored Christian Asso
ciation beaded by a base drum and
flanked by provision baskets, on its way
way to Jones' wood for a pie nic, an
immense gathering of colored people
from the country, a tremendous traffic
in chickens and eggs, one wagon with
dozen or more small sun-baked w'ater
melons, a general stirring up of dust
and flow of perspiration, and a big
business in soda water and whiskey.
The day passed off quietly.
Thanks.
For a large and'~well filled basket of
vegetables sent in last week, Mr. Jas.
. Meredith has our thanks. lie must
have looked into our garden before
sending.
Prof. Clark, photographer, hlas our
unqualhfied thanks for the gift of that
very handsome picture of ourself (Sen
ior) which for some time has been
adorning tihe front of Dr. Pelham's pre
scription case. Howv he succeeded in
making it such "a thing of beauty" is a
mystery we cannot understand, we had
no idea that we were half so fine look
ing. Even our handsome Governor's
picture, which hung near it, lost in
comparison. Those who failed to see
the picture at Pelham's can do so by
calling at thlis office.

The first annual meeting of this asso
ciation took place on last Saturday, the f
5th inst. The attendance was rather x
slim owing. no doubt, partly to the op- t
J pressive heat of the day and partly to 1:
the circumstance that the effect of the C
festivities of Commencement week had i
niot sufficiently passed away to give to c
the minds of many the required rest to t
enjoy another intellectual treat. Major c
.J. P. Kinard, in his usual felicitous C
style, made announcement from the
Court House and delivered quite a pithy
little speech not put (own on the pro- i
gramme. After the opening of the f
President George S. Mower, and an ap- f
propriate prayer by the Rev. S. P. a
Hughes, State Superintendent of Edu
cation H. S. Thompson was introduced c
by the President. The latter omitted ']
the Introductory Address prepared by e
him to give the Superintendent, who e
was compelled to return to Columbia n
on that day. sufficient time for the de- c
livery of his address. The speaker cap-.)
tivated the audience from the very be
ginning by his graceful, still impressive
manner; the intellectual sparkle of his
eye; his evident earnestness and easy t
command of language. IIe had obvious
ly material sufficient at his command
to entertain and instruct his audience 0
for hours; the difficulty seemed to be
to conline his remarks within the proper c
limits of the time allotted. We cannot
give a synopsis of his speech as our
want of space and the lateness of the t]
hour forbids. Ile dwelt with force upon
the necessity of compulsory education
and tile duty and policy of the State to ti
tax all citizens for maintaining the ma
chinery for the dispensation ofj ustice and t
a system of charities-in which connex
ion the speaker referred with pride to
the Lunatic Asylum at Columbia, and tl
the Asylum at Cedar Springs for the
education of the Blind and the Deaf and
Dumb; it is likewise the duty and poli
cy of tile State to tax all citizens for the 0
purposes of education (to take the money
of one man to educate those of another.)
Knowledge is power, not only to its
possessor, but also to the community in t
which such possessor lives. Knowledge
is tile basis of virtue; universal educa- a
tion must go along with universal 0
Z. d
suffrage; the demand for education k
must be made by the pcoplc; arrange- ]
ments should be made to pay the teach
ers monthlv and with promptness-the b
discounting of certificates is a disgrace.
The speaker very eloquently advocatedF
the encouragement of local taxation
pass a law to give eaeh community a
right to levy a tax, taxpayers only to
vote. A fixed annual salary he insisted
is preferable to the community and to D
the parent. Public education may do
in certain instances what private schools
cannot accomplish. In this connexion d
Mr. Thompson spoke in the highest d
terms of praise of the public schools of
Charleston, and mentioned likewise the l(
action of Winnsboro' in reference to lo- ft
cal taxation for school purposes and the
great results thereby obtained last year. g
The whole system of laws in regard to r
education is to put able and honest
teachers in the school house. After
making a beautiful application of the
story related of Michel Angelo, whoseC
genius discovered an angel in an un
gainly block of marble while his pro- "
saic friend could see naught but form- ~
less matter to the duty of teachers to
create a work of art from the material o:
of the pupils untutored mind, hie closed it
by admonishing them to keep up with
the progress of science, and to drink f<
not from the stagnant pools but from 11
the running brooks of knowledge.
In the afternoon Professor D. B. Bus
by delivered a very elaborate and care- s
fully prepared address on the "Best
Methods of Teaching in the Common
Public Schools." The Professor is evi- r
dently a practical teacher who himself t
as watched the different modes of
teaching and their effect on the pupil's
mind. The address contained many g
valuable suggestions, but there was g
such an immense atmount of materialt
that although methodically arranged it
became somewhat difficult to consider c:
the propositions, as they were presented i
in rapid succession. We hope that the S
Professor's suggestions may be present
ed to the teachers in a permanent form 1
so that they may be studied and their '1
value tested, We have space only to c
give the subdivisions of the speaker's
subject:
1st. The best means of governing the t
school. 1
2nd. IIowv to complete the allotted C
work in the time specified.
3d. Exactly what parts of an educa
tion each study is to furnish.
4th. The best way to prepare for re- I
citations. -1
5th. The best manner of conducting
recitations.
Mr. C. G, Jaieger, considering the tl
lateness of the hour, the heat of the
room and the languor of the audience,c
had he kndnes topostp)one his ad
dress to some other time not yet speci
fed, no doubt, to the great relief of all a
the parties concerned. b:
The meeting went then into executive b
session.

the recipient of sundry hats and that leg
of mutton, is affectionately requested to n

~he Small Grain Crop.
The farmers of Newberry have cause
r rejoicing in the large grain harvest
vhich has just been gathered. Not in
be recollection of the oldest inhabitant
ave such crops been made, and not
ither because of any particular favor
rig circumstances of weather, but be
ause having at last become sensible of
be fact that the chances for a good
rop of small grain are-better than for
'ther crops, they sowed largely for it.
trid now they reap the fruits of their
:bor. Having learned this much there
i no doubt they will profit by it hence
:rth. A practical farmer said to us a
:w days ago that he made his wheat
nd oats crop pay his farm expenses,
nd that all the cotton he made was
lear profit. Good common sense that.
lie farmer who treats with indiffer
nce the small crops and goes altogeth
r for cotton makes no money, and in
11 probability loses. We have indeed
ause for rejoicing.
latrimony vs. Single Wretchedness.
On the corner of Main and Caldwell
treets a few days ago an interesting
onversation ensued between two Doc
>rs of Medicine-one a bachelor rapid
7 nearing the shady side of life, the
ther a married man with a house full
f children. The subject was marriage
-the one had at last come to the con
lusion that it was wise to marry. the
ther held the opinion that it was the
.upidest of all things and dangerous in
ic extreme. The argument waxed
,arm, and the married speaker with
is years of experience might have
irned the other from his purpose, but
at we came to the rescue and told him
bat his chance of future happiness lay
nly in the direction of marriage, that
re would rather marry a hundred times
vin live in single wretchedness a day.

Dommission Business to Messrs. Rob
artson, Taylor & Co., who will conduct
hat business hereafter.
The News and Courier correspondent
writing up Commencement, says "New
Serry has been in a state of excitement
mnd stir, such as only a fire or Comn
:encemnent can produce."
The great diversion on Monday was
he removal of Capt. A. C. Jones' stock
>f Shoes and Hats into the store next to
Pelham's. It is a good move. He in
ends to keep a full and complete stock.
Our Moliohon friend, E. S. C., talks q
about going to Glenn Springs. We
ion't wonder that he has a hankering -
in that direction. No man ever had a
better time with the ladies than he did
>n his last visit.
The subscription list for building the
Prosperity High School is assuming a
ealthy look. There is no doubt but itt
will be a success, and we are gratified
to see so much interest taken in it.
Prosperity is wide awake.
If you have any work in Job Print
ng bring it to the HERALD Ofice. We
do our own work in the neatest style,
at cheap rates, and in an expeditious
manner. Will duplicate bills of any
office on this continent or in Europe.
Keep your money in your own town.
We have had something to say of the
appiest man in Newberry. as well as
the oldest, and other varieties, and it is
now our pleasure to bring to notice the
sweetest, Mr. Thos. M. Paysinger, who
has no less than fifty gallons of honey.
t is not for sale, but his friends are
welcome to visit him and eat blackber
ry pie and honey till they can't rest.
