We acknowledge with pleasure a mu sical treat from Mr. Munson's String Band on Saturday night last, -ome where about the "wee sma' hours". It was deliciously sweet and highly relish ed by the entire household, not except ing the baby boy who lay as still as a mouse. We urge the objection, how ever, that it was too short, but suppose it was rendered so by reason that it was so near the Sabbath. Come again, gen tlemen, when you can stay longer. What More Delicious. The ice cream season was opened on Friday last at the Confectionery Store of Mr. A. C. Jones, and from the de mand thus far made he will find it no easy matter to keep up a full supply. Our people appreciate enterprise, espe cially when so much to their taste; no wonder then that Jones' cream and cake are so much sought after. The ladies especially will feel gratified in having a place in which they can com fortably sit and take their cream-a pleasure heretofore denied them. Memorial Day. Monday, 10th, was Memorial Day, and the graves of the soldiers buried in Rosemont Cometery were decorated. The turn out was small, and composed principally of ladies. The ceremonies were altogether informal, and consisted simply of a prayer by Rev. J. B. Camp bell and the decoration of the graves by the ladies. The custom of decorating the graves f the dead soldiers is a beautiful and appropriate one, and it should be observ ed more generally-all should take part. Out of Danger. The .good people of Newberry need >ave no fear now of perishing this sum er for want of cool, refreshing drink, or Capt. A. C.-Jones. and Dr. W. E. Peham, both have put up Soda Foun ains of most approved make and elab >rately beautiful patterns, indeed the andsomest that have ever been seen in ur town. Fountains of these patterns re very costly and we congratulate bese gentlemen on their pluck, and ope Lhat a huge thirst for soda water will so consume the public that it will rink early and late and on all occa ions. las and Water-works. The Town Council are considering he propriety of lighting the streets of ur town with gas. They think it can e done with very little, if any, addition o the present cost of lighting with oii. kany of the stores would no doubt use he gas, and private houses near the entre of the town would also use it, which would largely reduce the ex ense. The Council will invi,te Mr. -, of York, who has recently con tructid gas works in Spartanburg, to ome down and make an estimate of he cost. The subject of water-works is also be ng discussed, and the Council will pro ably get a surveyor to ascertain whether he water cannot be.brought into town y pipes from the spring near the tan ard, and collected in wells or cisterns n the central portion of town. he Battle of Life Was played by the Thespian Club in he Prytaneum Tuesday night, the 4th, o a very good audience. There has een a great improvement in the acting f some of the Club; this was specially nticeable in Michael Warden, who layed his part on this occasion very ell. The piece gives more room for ecitation than acting, the sentences be ng often very long and complicated. Dr. Jeddler and Mr. Snitchey rendered heir parts admirably. Miss Grace eddler was the personification of grace itself. Miss Marion's part was well erformed. Benj. Brittain and Clem ency Newcome put a greait deal of life into the performance by their natural ad amusing acting. The others, in less conspicuous parts, did well. The ime between acts was rather long, but the interim was filed in by excellent music from the Thespian Orchestra. ewberry College. We acknowledge receipt of Catalogue f Newberry College for the scholastic ear 1879-80. There are in the College proper 43 students-7 Seniors, 4 Jun iors, 8 Sophomores and 24 Freshmen. [ the Preparatory Department are 59. The final examination of the Senior Class will be held the 13th, 14th, 17th nd 18th instant; they will then have till the close of the session to prepare the graduating exercises, speeches, &c. Tbe other College classes will be exam ied the 14th, 15th and 16th of June. The Commencement Exercises are as follows: Sunday, June 20, 10 1-2 A. M., Bac :alaureate Sermon, by Rev. J. B.

Everything is growing off now it splendid style, and cotton and corn be gin to make a fine show, and the pret tiest crop to us is a field of corn. Mr. James F. Todd has moved intc his new house in Brooklyn. The young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of soda water and iced lem onade. There will be a big pic nic at Wil liamston on the 14th, and in view of it we ask what is the matter with New berry. Rev. Mr. Gallaudet has accepted a call from the Episcopal Cuiurch at Spar tanburg, and will take charge the 1st of July. Mr. P. J. Stephens has bought a track of land near town from Mr. P. N. Livingston, and is building nearly oppo site Mr. L's residence. "If you have tears to shed prepare to shed them now"-soda water. has gone up to ten cents a glass. What is this country coming to anyhow? The colored Baptists of the State held a Convention in Greenville last week. Rev. Fred Brown, pastor of the colored Church in Newberry, attended. We have received a copy of the pro ceedings of the Grand Lodge of the Knights of Honor at its Fourth Annual Session in Sumter, April 20-21, 1880. A son of Col. Thos. W. Holloway, of Pomaria, received a severe kick in the breast frcm a mule Tuesday, the 4th inst., which laid him up for a few days. The Senior Editor has an apricot tree which, though the earliest of bearers, shows considerable fruit. The sticking of the crop depends very much on the boys-we hope they will be generous. A number of people in Newberry have organized a Northern Methodist Church in town. They have hired the warehouse belonging to Mr. Fowles, near the passenger depot, and Jim Graham preaches to them. The writing classes of Prof. Harris are gratifyingly large and are working fnely-we hope soon to have a goodly lot of fine pensmen and penswomen. If you are not yet in young man and young lady, go in at once. The Court has been in session since Tuesday, 4th. A considerable amount of business has been disposed of. Judge Wallace will remain here the remain der of this week. Next week he be gins an extra session at Laurens. Our good friend, Mrs. R. C. Sharpe, of the Williamston Hotel, has our thanks for an invitation to visit her on the 14th, with no limit as to stay, with the promise of abundant good things. We will not dare be guilty of refusing so kind an offer. Mr. Jack Henderson, of Maybinton, is the possessor of an Audiphone !(ith the use of which be says he can hear distinctly. It is now going the rounds among the afflicted for the purpose of testing it, and when the result is known we will publish it. Rev. M. M. Mance, pastor of the A. M. E. Church in Newberry, bias gone to Cincinnati to attend the Gene ral Conference of the Northern Meth odist Church. Writing to one of his congregation a few days ago, he says one of the first men he saw in Cincin nati was Press Metts. We are pleased to see that inventive genius is not altogether of Northern birth. Capt. McFall, the popular dry goods dealer, has had made a neat and showy parasol rack, which is ahead of anything used for this purpose we have yet seen. So much does he think of it that he has had it photographed by Clark Bros. It can be seen at his store. Personal Mr. Jno. D. Cash is very ill. Mr. Jno. Willis is nearly well again, Dr. Jno. R. Thompson is on a visit to Alabama. Mr. F. N. Parker and family left Newberry Saturday for Union. Mr. Henry Ewbank, travelling agent of the Charleston News and Courier, the best paper in the South, was in town last week. Mr. D. A. P. Jordan and Mr. C. C. Wardlaw,- two of the handsomest and leverest of commercial travelers-and both bachelors-are in town. Mr. Joseph L. Keitt, son of Col. E. S. Keitt, returned home from New York Friday, where be has been for several months attending the Law Scbool of Columbia College. He has a vacation till fall, when he will return and com plete his coarse. Peterson's Magazine. We have just received Peterson's Mag azine for June, and do not hesitate to say that it has more attractions than all the other magazines combined. No magazine in America has such fine steel engravings, and such good cats. The ladies at home tell us that "Peterson's" fahosaei"ete at,admr reliable are inanytmagazineepubnished.

The Newberry News was in a criti cizing mood last week. Its righteous soul was sorely vexed by an article or two in the HERALD, and it finds reliefi in an unwarranted, unprovoked and unfair attack upon this paper. We don't object to fair criticism; we don't object to honest differences in opinion. But if the News wanted to be fair why didn't it print our articles-not garbled extracts-that its readers might see them and judge of them for them selves. Had it done this, we should have had less to complain of. We are willing to stand by what we have written; we believe our position is cor rect. We know it is honest. We have never stopped to inquire whether it is popular; because we do not trim our sails to suit the peculiar views of any class, sect or order of men. We try to advocate and sustain what is right, and condemn and put down what is wrong, so far as our duty as a journalist ex tends. Now as to "HERALD Hits", we have this to say: that our sole desire was to put a stop to what we considered a de moralizing and illegal performanee, carried on in public view and calcula ted to ruin the young men and boys of our town and community. We did say, and still say, that it was the duty-the sworn duty-of certain officers of the law to suppress it. These officers have had nothing to say in their own behalf against us for reminding them of their duty. Why should the News object? Is it their spokesman? Or has it rushed voluntarily to their defense? We did call upon those who were prominent in advocating "morality and reform" as an issue in our last municipal election to put a stop to this gambling establish ment-any one of them could have done it in twenty minutes. We now say, they should have done it. And we fur ther say that consistency required them to do it. If we have done them an in justice by reminding them of this fact, we beg their pardon. But who author ized the News to take up the cudgel for them? Its interference is not only un solicited, but unauthorized. The HER ArD is just as desirous of securing mo rality and reform as the News, or as any citizen of this town; and has proved its position by advocating these measures boldly, fearlessly, consistently and inde pendently; without stopping to inquire who would be pleased or who would be offended. In doing this it has not hid den itself behind any party or organiza tion. "But the advertisement was allowed to appear." Yes. and every decent ad vertisement is allowed to appear; but nobody is fool enough to believe that the editor of a respectable newspaper can be bought for a seventy-five cents advertisement. The Hmna1n doesn't sell its opinions, and is not, silenced by bribes in the shape of advertisements, whether they be great or small.- But the advertisement was allowed to ap pear in the News, too-and that is all that did appear; but we give the News the benefit of the doubt, and take it for granted that it did not know that there was a gambling establishment going on next door to its office. Enough on that subject. As to the other matter-the secret sessions of the Grand Lodge of Good Templars, we lave something to say. The Temperance cause is altogether different from the Knights of Honor, Foresters, Masons and Odd Fellows. These, so far as we understand them, are more after the style of close corpo rations; their chief object is to benefit their members. Not so with, the Tem perance cause: its object is to aid all who need aid; it ought to be, and is in tended to be, aggressive in its policy and reforming in its influence. It knows no class, no rich, no poor, no high, no' low. Its doors stand wide open to wel come all who need its fostering care and support. It is second only to the church in its ends and aims. Its design is a noble one; and we hail with glad ness every success of the cause, and are ever ready to lend our aid to its ad vancement. To win success the tem perance movement must influence pub lic opinion, and the best way to do this is to bring it mnto vital contact with the public. Public meetings would do this. We lump together whatever else we have to say, and close this article; for it has already taken up more space'than it deserves. The News says: "Would that paper have expressed the same opinions were our leading men advo cates of this cause ?" We suppose that the leading men of the place are advo cates of the cause, in the sense that they desire to see intemperance eradicated. The News asks a question, but it has not the candor or the manliness to give the answer that it seeks to suggest. Our answer is, yes; and we further say, that if the News intimates that the expres sion of our opinions is influenced by any such considerations it intimates what is false. The statement in the next para graph, that we have "cast slurs" on the Grand.Lodge of Good Templars is ab solutely false-with no "if" or "ands" about it. This sort of discussion is always dis tasteful to us under any circumstances, and especially so in this case, on account of the fand.ly relationship existing be tween the publishers of the News and of the HERAu. This fact itself would have constrained us to pass the .News' articles by unnoticed if we could have done so with justice to ourself. We will add a few remarks of. a personal and explanatory nature, in reply to the Laurensville Herald, whoe Senior Editor is the Grand don't see how it could be misunderstood that their secret sessions so excludei them, as a Temperance Convention from the outside public that it prevent ed their making-not as individuals but as a Convention-thn impressior they would have made h.d the outside public been invited to attend their meet ings. We have no doubt that the indi2?i dual members made the best sort of im pression upon those whose acquaint ance they formed. Nothing was fur ther from our intention than to speal lightly or disparagingly of the delegates In the first place it would have been most impolite, as they were the guests of our town; and in the second place they were men who are entitled to- the highest respect and conaideration both on account of their personal worth ani the cause they represented. The dele. gation from Laurens and Clinton, with most of whom we have the honor of a personal acquaintance and several o: whom are friends of many years stand ing, would dignify any body. And we suppose these may be taken as a fair sample of the whole. "The head and front of our offending" amounts simply to saying that the Grand Lodge of Good Templars would accomplish more good to the community in which they hold their Conventions if they would bold them with open doors instead of secret ly. Having written both the articles in last week's paper, as well as the above, and for the reason already alluded to, I prefer to sign my own name to this. W. H. WALLACE, Ed. HERALD. A Reply to the Herald. In its last issue the HERALD, report ing the proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Good Templars, says: "Why the temperance people should hold secret sessions we cannot possibly conceive." If the writer of that paragraph will join the order he can then conceive. We suppose this is the first time such a question has ever been asked. Why does any society hold secret sessions? If it was a political meeting, there would be some cause to grumble. It is a very hard matter to induce men to connect themselves with the cause of temper ance. (so much the more unfortunate are the apparent slurs of the "author of that opinion"), and the secret work of the order of Good Templars is nothing more nor less than what we consider beautiful forms and ceremonies, whose beauty would be marred if revealed tc the uninitiated. The entire business ol the Grand Lodge sessions is transacted in the secret ceremonies of the order, as it is in the Subordinate Lodges. Why do not these Sub. Lodges give up theix pass-words, signs and degrees, and hold their sessions with open doors every week? Why do not the Knights ol Honor, Order of Foresters, Masons and Odd Fellows, invite the public to all their meetings? The idea is ridicu lous in the extreme when we take into con sideration the fact that the secret parn (not such a terrible secret after all) could be construed as an inducement tc many to enter the ranks. This is appli cable to Grand and Subordinate Lodges of all Orders. Again: "To the public it looks like eithez phariseeism or timidity." Now, while the News is not the organ of the temperance movement, but a po litical, news paper, whose columns, however, are open to the success of the cause, yet we cannot let the above thoughtless and unjust remark pass un answered. No doubt this last-quoted sentence from the HERALD made a few~ bar keepers smile with unfeigned de light, that their cause received such heli from a source which, if it cannot say anything good, should certainly say no thing detrimental, when speaking of a noble work. What is the object of such remarks from our contemporary? We are at a loss to conceive of it. It re quires no argument to prove the unfor tunate bearing of such utterances. The HERALD knows that the membership ol the order in Newberry is very small. Would that paper have expressed the same opinions were our leading men advocates of this cause? Is it ashamed to take the lead? And again: "A bold move, open, public, above board is the way to carry public senti ment." There is something in that remark. We are glad to see that the HERALD iS not "on the fence" on this subject. Ii has shown its boldness by openly cast ing slurs on a dignified and respectable body. If such is not the case, why thi question: "What impression did they make on the Newberry public?" We are truly sorry to read such a re mark on a subject so important as the one under discussion. It would have made a much better impression on the Newberry public if the oldest paper in the town had come out boldly and open ly in its favor, or even had it just simply noticed the proceedings without such unfavorable comments. Every man tc his own opinion will have nothing to dc with these remarks. We can only say that it is very unfortunate that a lead ing paper should seek to bring reproach upon a cause that is striving and strug gling and battling for a good purpose. If leading men and journals would come out boldly for t'e right, the sad specta cle of a reeling citizen would not be seen upon the streets of a community. (Newberry News.
