Sniffles
Is very much perplexed, he hoars so
many things. He had determined not
to go fishing again, but being button
holed by a man who lives near the riv
er and has observed all the signs, and
who imparted the secret of successful
fishing to him, he don't; care now if he
tries his hand once more. The secret
is in the wind. When it blows from
the South fish are afflicted with a mania
for biting, and will bite at any kind of
bait, and allow themselves to be caught.
Sniffges is going to try it on and if it fits
he promises to tell us all about it. First
he is going to erect weathercocks all
all around his house, so as to be duly
warned as to tbe blowing of the South
wind, andz one in his bat to guide him
when away from home. We sincerely
hope that our unfortunate friend is on
the right track at last.

The Newberry Debating Club
At its meeting Monday night dis
cussed the question whether the gov
ernment ought to suppress Mormonism.
The question was decided in the nega
tive. Arrangements were made for a
public debate the night of the 15th of
May at the usual place of meeting, Tem
perance Hall. The Club elected the
following debaters for the occasion, two
for each side': Messrs. James Packer,
G. B. Cromer, G. G. Sale and Jno. B.
Jones. The question for debate will be
announced by the President on the
night of the debate. The debate will
therefore be extempore.
The question for the next regular
meeting. Monday night, is, Is the ex
istence of political parties beneficial to
the State?
Hydrophobia.
About six weeks ago a six year old
son of Mr. W. W. Spence, of this Coun
ty. was bitten by a dog. The wound
healed up, and the child appeared to be
in usual health until Tuesday, the 11th
instant. when symptoms of bydropho
bia were observed. Drs. Keitt and Ruff
were sent for, and as soon as they saw
the child pronounced the case hydropho
bia. The sight of water threw the child
into convulsions, and chloral and mor
phine were powerless to produce ease
or quiet. His sufferings were terrible
to witness. He lingered until Thurs
day in.great agony, and died.
The dog that bit the child exhibited
no signs of being mad. It belonged on
the place, and the child was playing
with it when bitten. The dog was not
killed until about a week before the
child died.
A Through Schedule.
The first of May through trains will
be put on the S. C. and C.&G.R.R.
There will be no change of cars be
tween Charleston and Hendersonville;
no change between Charleston and
Greenville; and only one change be
tween Charleston and Walhalla, and
that will be at-Columbia. All the trains
that start from Charleston will run
through, except the engine, and all the
employees except the engineer and
conductor. A change will be made in
these at Columbia. The train for Hen
dersonville will leave Columbia ten
minutes ahead of the train for Green
ville and Walhalla, and it will make
no stop between Columbia and Alston.
The speed will be considerably in
creased on the S. U. & C, Road; but
on the C. & G. there will not be much
increase.

Clinton Dots-From "Our Monthly."
Mr. D. H. Wheeler, of Prosperity,
has presented the Thornwell Orphan
age with 2,000) feet of lumber for a new
building, the Orphans' Seminary.
The C. & G. R. R. gives half rates on
all material shipped to the Thornwell
Orphanage for building the new Semi
nary.
Messrs. Leavell & Speers. of .New
berry, have presented the Orphanage
with a neat marble slab for the- Semi
nary building. It is lettered: "The
Orphans' Seminary, 1882. The Ifear of
the Lord is the beginning of wisdom."
The work on the Baptist Church pro
gresses finely. The building is neat
and tastefual,.and is an ornament to our
little village.
The citizens of Newberry, Prosperity
and Columbia responded-very kindly to
Mr. Scott's appeas in behalf of the Or.
phanage.
The Floral Fair
In the city of Charleston no doubt
was a grand affair, but the occasion
was only a passing one, flitting like
some beautiful phantasmagoria, made
up of bright hued flowers, plentifully
mixed with music, beatitifulto the eye
only while it lasted. -The. fairest- thing
of the season, and which will last a man
-we don't allude to women now, un
less they wish to wear pantaloons-un
til ho grows tired of it. is the clothing
advertised by Mr. M. L. Kinard, of
Columbia. His blue Middlesex Flannel
suits are only $12.50, cheaper than can
be bad in the city by the sea. And
then he has such a variety of other kinds
of suits, that any reasonable man can
be suited "t one of almost any color
and any price. Kinard is the one among
ten thousand to buy plotbing from, andc
the man who disputes our word should
be made to flee to the usountains of
Hepsidam, where the lion roareth, and
the whangdoodle mourneth for her first
born.
Rust in Wheat.
Mr. Carr Vance reports that wheat
in the Jalapa section has rust. That
fine field on- Mrs. Sallie Kinard's place,
opposite her residence, is nearly ruined.
Mr. James Reeder reports his wheat
very badly injured by rust. Mr. H. D).
Boozer, of the Smyrna section, says hae
knows of no yuse ip his section i but that
some wheat betweena his place and town
appears to have rust. Mr. 4. B. Mills,
who lives seven miles below ?rosperity,
says that in his section the lower blades
of the wheat are dying. and have some
what the appearance of rust, but it is
not rust. He thinks it results from cool
weather, and that the wheat is probably
injured thereby to some extent. Mr.
Jno. A. Werts, of Silver Street, says
that he has observed no rust in his sec
tion. Mr. W. W. Waldrop's wheat,
which up to a few days ago looked very
promising, has rust badly, and will
scarcely make seed. We hear that
there is a good deal of rust in tepii
borhood of 'Colony Uhurch. Senatpr
Brown says tIe hals seen two oK .three
fields of wheat--in -his seeW.on badfy af
fected by-rast. , Mr. Joseph Caldwell's
and MisJ.":Turnipseed's wheat has
the rust badly.
.Skin. diseases are increasing to an alarm
inig extent, and when left atdne take deep
er root, and the longer neglected are the
more dificult to cure. Thev all indicate a
disordered or impure condition of the blood
A few bot dies of the great vegetable altera
tive, S. S. S., by purifying the blood, cures
all such diseases, and robs future years of
much suffering. Price, $1.00 and $1.75 per
Bridge at Bouknight's.
Newberry has a large trade from that
section of Edgefield County extending f
eight or ten miles beyond -Bouknight's
Ferry, on Saluda river. Nearly every
body in that s -ction brings his cotton
to Newberry and does his trading here;
first, because it is convenient to him c
and, second, because this is a good
place to trade. Our trade from this
section would be larger still were there
a bridge over the Saluda at Bouknight's.
The people are afraid to bring their i
wagons over on the flat. It would pay
the merchants of Newberry to contri
bute liberally to the building of such a
bridge. We hope the County Commis
sioners of Newberry and Edgefield will
unite and build a bridge at this point.
The public convenience demands it.
The right kind of bridge could be I
built at this point with $3,000. Presi
dent McCaughrin authorizes us to say,
that the Columbia & Greenville R. R.,
will give $1,000 towards such a bridge.
Certainly the Counties of Edgefield and
Newberry can each give $1,000.
A New Pastor.
Rev. J. Steck. D.D., of New Phila- b
delphia,.0., preached again last Sun- I
day at the Lutheran Church in New
berry. The congregation of this church
have unanimously elected Dr. Steck J
their pastor, and he will probably ac- t
cept, though he has not yet sent in a
formal acceptance.
Dr. Steck is a native of Pennsylvania, e
and is fifty-seven years of age. He
was educated at Wittenberg College,
Springfield, 0., where he was gradua
ted in 1851. The degree of A. M. was
conferred upon him two years after;
and in 1876 be received the degree of b
Doctor of Divinity from his Alma Ma- e:
ter. For six years past he has lived at
New Philadelphia, 0., and was pastor
of the Lutheran Church there for four g
years. He has a wife and eight chil
dren. His oldest son is foreman In a
printing office, and his oldest daughter li
is a teacher in the Female Seminary at h
Staunton, Va., where she graduated a
year ago. Dr. Steek expects to remain I
at Newberry three or four weeks long- E
er, and then, in case of his acceptance,
will go North after his family. This is
the Doctor's first visit to South Caroli- E
na, and he is much pleased with the a
country.
Experience the Best Cuide. .
The reason why women everywhere use
Parker's Ginger Tonic is, because they have
learned by experience-the best guide- h
that this excellent medicine overcomes de- d
spondency, periodical headache, indiges- d
tion, pain in the back and kidneys, and
other troubles of the sex.-Home Journal.

The Default in the Treasurer's Office. I]
The figures we gave last week were s4
about correct. At that time we had
not beep able to see the School CoM- b
missioner to ascertain the loss to the h
school fund.
Since then we have seep Mr. H. 8.
Boozer, the School Commissioner. He
says that the-Treasurer's-last report to 0
him was on March 15th. He has made I.
payments since then. The following v
table will show how the matter stands:
On hand Paid out 0
Township.. March 15. since

No. 11. 142.18 25.00t
Total, $1,718.24 $473 50
So that the loss to the school fund is
$1,242.74. -t
We learn from the Comptroller-Gen-t
eral's office that the Treasurer had paid
to the State $16,000. The taxable pro-.
perty of the County is $4,011,455; State
tax of 5 per cent. on that would be
$20,057.27. Making proper deductione
for commissions, nulla bona, overpay
ment last year, &c., amount to (about)
$600, and adding to this the check for
$892.77 on the Bank payable to the
State Treasurer, gives (about) $1,500.
This added to $16,000 gives $17,500
paid to the State; which Jeaveastill due
to the State $2,557.27.
The total loss to the ordinary County
fund, as reported by the H.ERAw last I
week, is $1,771.99.
Adding together the losses to thet
State, County and Schools we haver
$5.572-.
The above estimate does not include
the mixed fund of $8,226.76* which was
paid over to the Treasurer in 1877 by1
order of Court, from the Jesse C. Smith I
fund. This added to the other - makes
the total default $8,799.52.t
Some Cood Ones. .
A party was gathered together in I
Newberry Monday, and . after talking -
awhile on general, subjects they drifted<
into the usual channel of. "remarkable
oecurrences." Mr. Doug. Burton toldt
of a gourd vine that grew on Sandy
Ron several years ago that bore fifteen
hundred gourds. The man who owned
the vine had the gourds counted by
some of the most reliable men of the
neighborhood, and there were actually
fifteen hundred of them. Several gen
tlemen of the County canp hear testimio,
ny to the fact,
Another gentleman present, deter.
mined not to be oqtdone, told of a won
derful pumpkin vine he .once had, He
said he planted it on very rich ground,
and it spread over several acres. Be
ing asked how many pumpkins he got a
from the vine, he said he didn't get any ;
that the vine grew so fast it wore all
the pumpkins out dragging them around
over the ground.
Mr. Tom Lane said he had an uncle
up in North Carolina that plowed eight
acres in one day. He used a twelve
inch plow and forir borses-two in the3
rnorning and twvo inthe afternoon. No
one seemed to doubt it; but a gentle
man present said: "Tom, if I had told
that you wouldn't have believed it,"
Mr. Mont. Williams told of how Sam
Tribble, colored, cleared ten acres of
land in one day. When the sleet came
In January and bent all the pines
down, while everybody else was sitting,
round the fire trying to keep warnm,
Sam took his axe and went out to clear
a piece of pine land. The trees being
bent over by the w"ight of the sleet.
only one slight tap the axe would
bring them down. In a few hours h
bad ten acres cleared.
Tfhe dispussion turning upon the~ best
color tp paint a house, Mr. Ja:cob Sliga
told of 4 meeting of ch4orch offuers for
the purposeof deciding n on a- color
for the' church. After dlscussinig .the
various colors, they decided that's~orne
were too gaudy and that others 'would
fade too soon. Failing to agree Bro
ther A. suggested they paint it a rum
color. He thought this a good color,
because Brother B. had painted his face
with it twenty years ago, and it had
been getting brighter ever since.
