The Grain Crop. Farmers are beginning to harvest their grain. Wheat in this County will av erage just about half tihe usual crop; oats will turn out better than for many years. This crop is excellent. Pic Nic. The pupils of Capt. Pifer's Academy had a delightful pic nie at Cline's Grove on Friday last, and we are told that they enjoyed it more than on any for mer oocasion, the shower of rain which sprinkled them in the afternoon even not dampening their delight.

Pelbam, we regret to say,. was painfully burned on Monday night while sealing a bottle with seal lug wax. His entire right hand was covered with the seething wax, and in a few minutes was fearfully swollen. The agony experienced by him for sev eral hours was intense. We extend our sympathies. The inaugural BalL On Thursday evening next there wil be given in honor of the opening of the new hotel a grand ball. The large and elegant dining room will be thrown open on this occasion. Several hun dred invitations to the ladies have been sent out by committee and the accept ances will no doubt be very mainy. There will be no speciail invitations fur gentlemen. Major Wmn. F. Nance's Nomination for Adjutant and Inspec tor-General which pppeared in last week's issue was handed us at the last moment. We could, therefore, not even allude to it. We heartily endorse the nomination. His character, informa tion and experience eminently fit him for the position. We know him to be thoroughly competent, and sincerely hope that he may be nominated by the Conreution. New Flavoring Extract Dining with a friend mn Columbia one day last week, among many other delectable things afforded on the occa sion was ice cream whose flavor was so delicious yet peculiarly str:nge that we were forced to ask what essence had been used. With a smile pleasantly in keeping with the cream and the* good L dinner, our agreeable hostess replied, the essence of scorch. It was in this case a decided improvement. What the Ladies Need.

We feel confident, from the names which make up the Committee, that whether the supper takes place soon or late, it will be a grand success. It is to be hoped that there will be a full at tendance upon this meeting of the Com mittee, and that the whole community will heartily second whatever action it may take. The Big Break In prices made by the large and popular-house of Messrs. Jones, Davis & Bouknights, of Columbia, is just the very thing wanted, and they are wise in advertising so important a fact to the people of Newberry. They have mark ed down goods in every department. We take pleasure in adding that their assortment is very large, 4nd enmbraces everything in dry goods, shoes, hats, carpets, mattings, &c. Visitors to Col umbia are respectfully invited to this establishment. "Just as of Old."

These three pieces will cost at any music store over-$1.00, and here they all are in regular form for only ten cents. Send ten cents for the May number and it will be mailed postpaid. Address the publishers, Lud den & Bates, Savannah, Ga. Thanks. We are indebted to the young ladies of the Staunton Female Seminary for an invitation to attend their Commence ment Exercises on Wednesday,'June 2nd. We regret not being able to at tend - commencements, conventions, press meetings, &c., at home take up all of June. For an invitation .to accompany the students of Eastman College, Pough keepsie, N. Y., on their annual excur sion down the Hudson, our thanks are due. This pleasant jaunt occurred on the 22nd. Hon. J. N. Lipscomb. The Columbia Mercury of last Sun day nominates Hon. J. N. Lipscomb, of Newberry, for Governor, and sup ports its nomination in a sensible edi torial pointing out his fitness for the office. Col. Lipeomb is an able and conscientious gentleman, who would make an excellent Governor. He is a practical man, thoroughly identified with the people of the State and in full sympathy with the spirit of economy and retrenchment, which is so much needed in South Carolina. His nomi nation would be received with enthu siasm throughout the State. (EAnderson Intelligencer. Ludden & Bates' Southern Music House,; Savannah, Ca. Through the Savannah Morning News we learn that Ludden & Bates' Great Southern Music House will remove on July 1 next, to their new double store, corner Congress and Whitaker Streets. They will then have two large four-story stores thrown into one and convenient ly arranged for their extended busi ness (which has doubled in the past two years), and which will give them the largest and finest Musical Warerooms in the entire South. The music trade of this staunch old house is immense and Savannah may well be proud of possessing such an exponent of her claims as a Southern music and high art centre. There is no firm in the South who have done so much towards the development of musical interest and culture as Messrs. Ludden & Bates, and we congratulate them on their splendid success. Men who show them s~lv~s so enternrisino'. accomodatin~ Personal. Jno. F. Hobbes, Esq., has hung out his shingle at Lexington C. H., as At torney and Counselor at Law. We wish him many clients. We acknowledge a visit from the Rev. J. Hawkins, the editor of the Lu theran Visior, and Mr. J. J. Quantz, who will hereafter attend to the typo graphical department of the paper. The latter gentleman is a practical printer and is from Salisbury, N. C. The Vis itor will from this date be issued from Prosperity, and we congratulate the people of that town in having a print ing office. in their midst. A Big Stock Of clothing and a fine one is that of Mr. M. L. Kinard, of Columbia. It does a man good just to pass down the length of his large establishment and look at the splendid assortment, but how much more good when he rigs himself out in a full suit-which by the way almost any one can do so reason able are the prices. The spring styles of suits and hats are very beautiful and his stock is as varied as large. His very clever assistants, Messrs. Beck and Kennedy, are at home in a stock of clothing and make their customers feel in a corresponding happy frame. It is refreshing to visit at this store, and we advise our readers to go there and try it on. Live at Home. Our good friend Simmons. the lessee of the handsomest hotel in the Southern country, asked us on Friday last, as we stepped cff the train, "where we lived now," alluding to our little trips-trips off, not up. Well, we live right here at home, that is have our washing done here, when at home, and feel very much at home when here. Owing to circun stances-very pleasant ones-we flit about occasionally, here, there, else where, much to our profit and amuse ment, and on this last trip had been down to Columbia, where two days were spent deaghtfully among friends. We have no idea at present of remov ing permanently. Jurors for the June Term of Court. Richard C. Workrpan, T. M. Suber, J. D. Suber, Thos. T. Pugh, I. M. Smith, A. Y. W. Glymph, Wm. Ches ier, W. D.

Wells has made a very cor rect representation of arn eagle and a palmetto tree on the front of the Cdurt House. The eagle has been the subject of much remark; but the report that the County Commissioners have decided that it must come down is incorrect. A crowd of twenty or more collected in front of Mollohon R,ow Tbursday morning and began to guess the length of the bird from tip to tip of wing. The guesses ranged from four feet and a half to twelve. Several parties ':back ed their judgment" with soda water, the worst guesser to treat the rest. Af ter all had tried their hand at guessing Mr. Wells went ep and made a careful measurement of the bird, and found it to be ten feet and half an inch from tip to tip. Conferences at Newberry. The Newberry Conference of South Carolina Synod convenes in the Evan gelical Lutheran Church, Newberry, S. C., Friday, at 10 o'clock, A. M., be fore the 5th Lord's day in this mouth, May. Essayist, Rev. Sligh. Subject, "Is it Scriptural to excommunicate a mem ber from the Church?" Rev. Hawkins, with Rev. Wingard as alternate, was appointed to preach the opening ser mon. Rev. Dr. Smneltzer, with Rev. Shirey as alternate, the Sunday ser mon. Sabject for the latter. "Evi dences of Spiritual growth in a Con gregation." The following questions will be dis cussed: 1. "Is the style of preaching com mon among our ministers the most effectual way of presenting the truths of the Gospel?' 2. "Is strict Lutheran Orthodoxy op posed to protracted efforts for the re viral of the Church ?" Rev. Hawkins, with Rev. Wingard as alternate, will open the first, and Rev. Bowles, with Rev. Sligh as alter nate, the second question." Sermon, and service preparatory to Holy Communion, Saturday at 11 A. M. Preaching Saturday night at 8 o'clock. Sunday-Preaching at 11=A. M. Holy Communion after morning service. Services and Addresses in the interest of the Sunday School at 4 P. M. Preach ing at 8P. M. The public is cordially invited to all these exercises. The Cokesbury District Conference (Methodist) will meet in the Methodist Church at Newberry Thursday, the 3d of June, and continue in session the re mainder of the week. Rev'. W. C. Power will preach the opening serrr on Wednesday night. The number of del e~ates is seventy-six; between forty and Various and all About. Warm. Good rains. Farmers will now fight grass. Cool nights and mornings. Oats and wheat harvest near at hand. The nimble knife and pistol are not laid by. A good deal of matter is unavoidably crowded out this week. Col. Clark Waring has a $28,000 con tract in Columbia. The colored woman who was stabbed last week died of her wound. The finishing touches are being put on Dr. Fant's new drug store. "No matter how little she costs him, a man's wife is dear to him." Ice Cream and Soda Water are the popular refreshments now-luckily both are plentiful and cost but little. There was a rumor on the street last night that a negro woman had split the skull of tier husband. She did not do it. An exchange has an article on "Breadstuff." Well, it may be. Now ] give us an article on "Meat's tuft," such as we usually get in our market. The man who will wait two hours for his girl to friz her hair to go riding with him, swears awfully if his wife keeps him waiting thirty seconds to fasten up a stray braid with a hair-pin. A subscriber says that we should not tell about the good things we get while excurting about the country, that it ( makes him hungry. Sorry for it, and advise him to Hunt up the good things and get even. A colored man found a curious bird last week swimming in :ush River. He slipped up close to it and knocked it in the head with a rock, and then caught it and brought it to town. Dr. Ferguson pronounced it a Loon, or Di ver. Census Enumerators. Col. Cadwallader J. Pride, of York County, has appointed the following persons as Census Enumerators: Town ship 1, Elbert H. Aall, for the tow n, and Jno. F. Spearman, for the country; Township 2, Dr. L. B. Bates; Town - ship 3, Dr. Jas. M. H. Ruff; Township 4, Dr. M. A. Renwick; Township 5, WI. Wallace Riser; Township 6, War ren G. Peterson; Township 7, Robert E. Williams, col.; Township8,. Rev. M. M. Boyd; Township 9, A. Logan Wyse; Township 10, Warren M. Feagle; Township 11, Thomas P. Slider. The people of this County are fort 11 nate in having such an efilient corpss of enumerators. We don't mean to say that they are the best that could have been selected; but takex as at whole they ought to give satisfaction. There is only one colored man among the number, R. E. Williams, and he is, the only Republican, unless Mr. Slider be excepted-we don't know what faith he holds to now, The people of No. 7 would, of course, prefer a white man not from any hostility to Williams, nor because they doubt his fairness; but be-p cause it would be more agreeable to C them to deal with a white man. They, no doubt, feel that they have not been a treated right in having an enumerator sent to them from another Township (Williams lives in No. 1), and he a col- E ored man. There may have been no applicamc from that Township, as there was none from No. 11. Mr. Slider, of No. 1, was assigned to No. 11. He is capable of doing his work well, and we have no doubt he will do so. The Census is to be taken in June. 1 It is a very important matter; and willr yield many important and interesting f facts. The ennuweration will cover va- d rious points; not only the population, but the various industries, p)roductions, resources, wealth, &c. Our readers see that there are two enumerators for Township 1, one for the town and another for the country. The question is frequently asked, "What is the population of Newberry ?" The I answer ranges all along between 2,000 and 3,500. The enumeration to be made t next month will enable one to answer ~ the question accurately. While guess ing is in order, we fix our estimate at c 2,700. What do you say, reader? Send us your figures, and we will publish I them, and see who comes nearest to the t exact Dumber. The enumerators will have a great many questio.ns to ask; among them, "How old are you?" How many will answer, with a "mental reservation"? For instance, if one is 250or 30, of course he (or she) is 18. Two Interesting Matters. That all Village families, and many City residents, will find health, comfort, great economy, and profit in keeping their own cow, and how to do it, are clearly shown in the Amzerican Agri cuturist for June; and every familyj should get this paper and look into it. Another article brings out a simple, cheap method of using Iron Fence Posts that will be worth millions to the country. These two chapters, with the hundred other practical, instructive b articles and over 60 original engrav- n~ ings, make this the most important ~ number ever issued of this always valuable Journal. 15 cents a number, $1.50 a year.
