The Heraltl is in the highest respect a Fam ily Newspaper, devoted to the inaterial in terosts of the people of this County and the State. It circulates extensively, and as an Advertising medium offers unrivalled ad vantages. For Terms, see tirst page. The State Penitentiary. While in Columbia last Friday we took advantage of the occasion to make a visit to the Penitentiary. and spent nearly half the afternoon in looking through that institution. This was our first visit during the administration of the present Super intendent, and it was gratifying to note the many improvements that he has carried out, and the air of precision, regularity. cleanliness and discipline. on every hand. Every thing im.s moving with the regu larity of ,clock work. Among the prominent industries going on with in the walls the following deserve special notice : The Broom Factory was established several months ago. The material is obtained from St. Louis, and all the work is done by the convicts. The brooms of all kinds are as neat and substantial as can be found anywhere, and they find a very ready sale at good prices. Some of these brooms will be on exhibition at our County Fair and at the State Fair. The Shoe Department employs quite a large number of hands. The shoes made are of the best leather, and the workmanship is first-class. Besides supplying the convicts many are sold to outside parties, bringing a considerable revenue to the State. There are between six and seven hundred pairs on hand now. All the workmen, except one, have learned their trade in the in stitution. The Spinners and Weavers make the striped cloth for the convicts ; they also make a considerable quan tity of cloth for sale. The spinning and weaving are done by hand, with the simplest machinery. Then there are the workers in Palmetto, who get out beautiful hats for ladies and gentlemen, bas kets, mats, &c., which find a ready sale. There is also a department for carpentering and wood work of all kinds, in which a number of bands is employed in making desks, ward robes, tubs, barrels, &c. McNinch and Blackwell, recently sent down from Laurens, are in this depart ment. The former is stout and healthy looking, and takes his con finement very cheerfully. He is mn for ten years, and when be comes out will no doubt be a first rate carpenter. A large number of hands are em ployed in making bricks, which are used in completing the walls of the Penitentiary and in building a Fac tery. The Factory will stand on tihe lower side of the enclosure, will be 130x50 and three stories high. The walls are already one story high. It will be run by water- pow ei- from the canal close by. The cooking, butchering and gar dening are all done inside the Pen itentiary by the convicts, at a sav ing to the State. We examined the bread, both corn bread a,.d loaf bread, and found it good enough for anybody. The loaf is equal to that of any baker in Columbia. Col. Lipscomb's plan is to get all the work possible out of the con victs, and to do this he sees that they have proper food, clothing and treatment so that they may be kept healthy and strong. A visit to the cells shows them to be in good sanitary condition and perfectly clean. And we ven ture to say that there is not a pub lic nor a~ private establishment in the whole city that is neater than the Penitentiary. We could mention numerous in stances to show how economically the institution is conducted, but one will suffice. In looking over the last report of the preceding Sriperintendent, Parmele, we find charged for grading inside the en closure $4,0090. The present Su perintendent has continued the work and has done considerably mnore than his predecessor at an expense of loss than $400. The benefits of Democratic rule, under the "new regime", is nowhere more marked than in the management of ta Rail Road. We saw twenty-fivf or thirty of these, and a more pitia ble lot of humanity could hardly be imagined-emaciated, bruised, haggai-d, broken in body and spirit, it will be many a day before they can ever do more work for the State. It is certainly the duty of the General Assembly to make a thorough and uncompromising in vestigation into this matter, and to fix the responsibility where it be longs. The Superintendent and Dr. Taylor, of Columbia, went up to the stockade last week to exam ine the forty-nine convicts still re maining. Of that number Dr. T. found that only eight were fit for work, and the rest were ordered back to the Penitentiary. The number of convicts last Thursday night was 696; of these 295 were in the Penitentiary, and 401 were hired out in various parts of the State. Meeting of the Equalization Board...-Raising Our Assessments. The State Board of Equalization ;net in Columbia Monday, October 6th, and remained in session two days. This Board is composed of the Chairmen of the respective County Boards of Assessors. There was no change made in the assess ment of Real Estate in incorporated towns and cities. in the following Counties no change was made in any assessment of real estate: Ab beville, Aiken, Anderson, Barnwell, Beaufort, Charleston, Chester, Clar endon, Colleton, Chesterfield, Dar lington, Hampton, Orangeburg, Horry, Marlboro', Marion, Lexing ton, Kershaw, Richland, Greenville, Oconee, Pickens, Laurens. The assessments were raised in the fol lowing Counties: Williamsburg, 10 per cent. on lands; Newberry, 10 per cent. on lands; Spartanburg, 10 per cent. cn lands. In the fol lowing Counties the assessments were lowered: Georgetown, 10 per cent. off lands ; Sumter, Chester, Fairfield, York, the same deduction; Lancaster, 5 per cent. off lands; Union, 4 per cent. off lands and im provements. There was some slight change in Edgefield regarding pas ture lands. The Board referred all assess ments to the members from Coun ties composing the Congressional Districts. The Chairman of the County Board of Newberry, Col. E. S. Keitt, was not present, hav ing made a mistake as to the date of the meeting. But we have been informed by a member of the Board from Laurens, Col. .J. Wash Watts, that his presence could not possibly have changed the result ; for the vote on raising the assess ment was unanimous. The assessment of lands in this County is not as high by about a dollar per acre as last year ; but this only proves that it was too high then. We are not disposed, however, to quarrel with the Board. The change doesn't amount to much, and the Auditor will be the greatest sufferer, by the additional labor rendered necessary. Taking the Census. We have received from Francis A. Walker, Superintendent of Cen sus, a circular concerning the office of enumerater under the census law. By the Act of 1879 enumera tion districts are not permitted to exceed 4,000 inhabitants according to the census of 1870. The number of inhabitants in enumeration dis tricts, except in cities or large towns, should ordinarily fall far short of this limit. The amount to be paid enumerators will be from $4 to $6 per day of ten hours of actual work. The w.>rk is to be done within four weeks in the country and within two weeks in cities. The Superin tendent thinks that country phy sicians and schoolmasters will prove the best enumerators. The enume ration is to be made in June, 1880. On the Tidal Wave. We are glad to note the signs of prosperity exhibited by that ster ling journal the Abbeville Medium "Upon what meat doth this our Coser feed that he he hath grown so great ?" The answer is, the good opinion of the people of Ab beville, whose interests it has al ways so earnestly and ably main ained and defended. The Mlediumn bas been considerably enlarged, and this with its columns big with ad ertisements, give proof of its hrivig condition. We congratu ate its editors and proprietors and ;vish them continued prosperity. The Kershiaw (Oazet.te. One of our best exchanges, is ;preading itself like a gr-een bay :ree. It has been enlarged to an ~ight page paper-sixty-four col The Military at the State Fair. There will be contests in drilling at the State Fair, t.o be participated in by all militia companies that de sire to enter the lists: 1st prize, 8300-open to the world; 2nd prize, $150-open to the State 3d prize, $75-open to the State, exclnding Charlaston, Columbia and Greenville. Those companies con tending for the first prize pay an entrance fee of $15; those for the second prize, $10; for the third, $5. Renfroe Acquitted. State Treasurer Renfroe, of Gc-or gia, impeached for high crinies and misdemeanors, was acquitted the 7th instat, the senate voting twen ty five for conviction and seventeen for acquittal-not the necessary two-thirds. The principal charge against him was that he deposited the State's money in bank and ap propriated the interest thereon to his own use. The New York Sub Treasury con ta~ns at present $164,000,000-$11, 000,000 in silver, $130,000,000 in gold, and $23,000,000 in green backs. The new silver vault will store $40,000,000, and the pros pects are that it will soon be filled. The clerical force is 70, each having a musket. The roof of the build ing is to be mounted with Gatling guns. W. L. Bird, Vice-President of the Vigilant Fire Company, of Charleston, while in Savannah at the late celebration, signalized him self in a heroic manner by climbing up the face of a building to the third story and rescuing a lay. The building was on fire. A noble fellow. The Charleston firemen can't be beat. Ed. Holmes, the negro who com mitted the outrage on the little two year ol daughter of Mr. Hum phrey, of Union, a few months ago, was convicted on the 9th, and was at once taken to the penitentiary. The Annual Fair of the Pee De Agricultural Association will be held at Cheraw on the 5th, 6th and 7th of November. Thanks to the Secr-etary, W. R. Godfrey, for a comp]imentar-y ticket. d1. F. & L. J.

By, to me, a very agreeable order of Divine Providetce, I ant spending the present year in the County of New. berry, and monthly roam over the very section that long years ago gave birth to my venerated father. As one by one I become acquainted with the in dustries, economy and genius of New berry I feel more and more the spirit of adoption. Such topics as the de velopment of her resources; diversity of investment and pursuit; sowing more oats ; the coming industrial fair; the ventures, the crosses, the conflicts, the victories of her Miany lovers have for me a thrilling interest ! to say no thing of the sill weightier interests of her schools and churches. But what about the teachers ? Well, I learned from the papers that Mon day, the 6th inst., was appointed for the ex:uitation of first grade teach ers, and wishing to meet one of the profession I attended the meeting. It was 11 o'clock A. M., when I entered the Court House hall. Some twenty teachers were before me "as busy as bees." My mimic Socrates was there busy too so I had to wait awhile. It was Monday and, after the duties of the previous day, a little rest would be pleasant. Our courteous School Cawmissioner. with a kindness that was appreciated, assured me that my presence would be no intrusion. One of the editors had as kindly furnished us some late papers, and to one who for months together had at one titne enjoyed the exchanges of the sanctum this was a treat. Comfortably seated by a remote window I tried to read. But-no ! I was in the immediate presence of a mighty agency-au awe inspiring power. "A time to every purpose under the heaven," but that surely was not a time to read. Thoughts in rapid succession rose. Heaving emotions followed. The nearer and more remote future of Newberry is so largely in the keeping of this comparatively small corDs of teachers. The efflcigncy and the hap piness of our dear children-the desti ny of the many bright faced princes of the popgun and China berry, and the brighter faced little princesses of the doll and toy cradle depends, 0, so much ! upon the character and la bors of these teachers. The paper glides from my hands and I watch the living objects in the living picture be. fore me. But the manifest tokens of refined taste, dignified bearing, liberal culture, intellect and, above all, a gen uine piety bade me hope for the best of results. If~ it be no intrusion for a stranger to drop a chaplet at the feet of true worth, I would stop long enough to congratulate Newberry on her teach ers. A large proportion of the male teachers are young men, themselves but students, and some of them making teaching a stepping stone to higher attainments in science or to the learn ed professions. In such cases the .nks are often strengthened by rare talent and energy for the time. Others are, of course, professional teachers. The lady teachers, outnumbering the others, impressed me very favorably. "It is an ill wind that blows no good," and one cannot be thrown with a group of our Southern lady teachers without realizing that the misfortunes of our section have thrown in the ranks of teachers an amount of culture and social worth that the profession could hardly otherwise have commanded. This has tended to stimulate and give increased dignity to the calling. In looking over this vcry interest ing group, I saw only one familiar face. She is the very embodiment of energy, intellect, and .true feminine worth-a princess of the birch that succeeds most happily without the birch. By a sort of instinctive im pulse we are prone to transfer the characteristics of a well known indi vidual of a class to those less known, and I may be inclined to judge all by the manifest merits of Miss S., but I do not think so, and if I have not widely misread faces they are all emi nently worthy of the high trust com mnitted to them by a confiding public.

Peterson's Magazine, Which a contemporary calls "pre-emli nently the first of the lady's books," is on our table for November, ahead of all others. It is astonishing how this favorite con tinues to improve. The present number leads off with a charming steel en graving, "The Little Haymaker," and is followed by one of those double-size steel fashion plates, superbly colored, only seen in this periodical. Then comes a powerful en graving, "The Oriel W~inidow,"~ illustrating a story, and then some fifty wood cuts of dresses, patterns in embroidery, crochet, &c., &c. A pretty love story, "The Prize At Our Archery Club," brilliantly illustrated, Follows, and then tales and novelets by Mrs. Ann S. Stephens, Mrs. F. Hodgson Burnett, Mlarietta H. Holley, Frank Lee Benedict, &-c., &c. With this number appears the Prospectus for 1880. A speciality of "Peter son" is a mothly Supplement, giveni ti each subscribEr, with a paper pattern for a lady's or child's dress, the patterns alone eicig worth more than the subscription price. Five Original Novelets will be given n 188O, by Mrs. Ann S.-Stephens, Mrs. F'rances flodgson Burnett, Frank Lee Ben,' adict, &c., &c. A New Feature will be in roduced, in a series of brilliantly illus :rated stories, and other articles.
