There shall be appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Senate, one officer for each County in the State, to be named and dlesipiated as Jury Commissioner, who, ith thle County Auditor and Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, or a majority of the same, shall constitute a Board of Jury Commissioners for said Coun ty. The Board of Jury Commissioners of each county shall, once in every year, during the inonth of January, prepare a list of such inhabitants of their respective counties, not absolute ly exempt, as they may think well qualified to serve as jurors, being per sons of moral character, of sound judgment, and free from all legal ex ceptions; which list shall include not less than one from every twenty vot ers of their respective Counties. If any member of the Board of Jury Commissioners shall be guilty of fraud, either by practising on the jury box previously to a draft, or in drawing a juror, or in returning into the jury box the name of any juror which had been lawfully drawn out, and drawing or substituting another-in his stead, or in any other way in the drawing of jur ors, he shall be punished by a fine not exceeding five hundred dollars, or be imprisoned not exceeding two years in the State Penitentiary. This law shows that the responsi bility of drawing jurors of the right kind, is equally distributed amongst the Jury Commissioner, the Auditor, and the Chairman of the Board of County Comm .issioners. We are gratified to learn from "1 of 3" that the white school at Flint Hill in No. 4, will be moved to a "central position," in July. But why wait till July, when by so doing you deprive a number of children of five months en joyment of the free publiceschool fund ? We like the trustees of No. 4, and we are interested in the schools of that township; we got the most important part of our "schooling" there. it is said that Senator Tabor of Colorado, rising to make his maiden speech, said: "Mr. President, I am ra ired with the gentleman from Hamup fon, Mr. South Carolina. This re minds us of an advocate in Newberry who couldn't for his life, tell whether he was talking to Mr. President, or Mr. Chairman, or Your Honor, or plain Mr. Packer. Things get tang le, yu know. Various and all About. The Lutheran Sunday school wil celebrate Easter with a concert. Mr. Warthen of Ga., made five bales of cotton on one acre of land. On Monday night, the debating club decided that Hamlet was not mad. Governor Stephens of Ga. is quite sick. There are 541 lunatics in the State Lunatic Agylum. School books a specialty at the HER. ALD Book store-if we have not what you want it is ordered at once. Listen to the sound of the Newber ry Hotel bell. It says chicken fry and batter cakes. Newberry will have about the first of April a new photographer in the peron of Capt. John A. Wren. Charity Kenedy, colored, 'sister of Henry Kenedy died yesterday morn ing. We learn from a private letter that Mr. A. A. Killian and family will move back to Newberry this month. The Crotwell Hotel feeds its board ers on genuine sausage. We would like to board there. The press-man of the News is made happy by a visit from his son-in-law, Alick Calmes, from Nuxubee, Miss. There is a lady in town who thinks that one should never wear borrowed plumes ; not even nom-de-plumes. The Newberry lawyers who attended Court at Lexington and Laurens are again at home. A muff is described as a thing that holds a girls hand and does not squeze it. This definition is almost correct. On Tuesday Mr. Ike Allen sold Mr. Jas. Spearman of this County, a pair of mules for $522j. They are beauties. The new nickel has not reached Newberry ; but the Lutheran Sunday School proposes to introduce the cop. per cent. The farmers say there are no worse roads in the county than they find within the corporate limits of Newber ry. The convicts of the Missouri peni tentiary mutinied a few days ago and set the building on fire. Loss $300,000. No escapes. Mr. C. K. Lord, of Baltimore, Md., is affectionately reminded that he owes the HERALD one of his red books, late ly published. Without boasting, the proprietor of the HERALD owes no man anything, and if tlhere is anything he delights te do it is to pay his debts. The Council should require all gates that open upon the sidewalk to be hungry so as to open inside. We pro. pose to repeat this suggestion. All iron preparations blacken the teeth, constipate the bowels, and oive headache,with one exception,that Brown's Iron Bitters. The senior editor of the HERALD has peas, radishes, turnips, beets, onions, mustard, cabbage and spinach up in his garden. A few days ago Mr. Geo. Denson, of Township 4, emptied his fodder house and corn crib, and killed about 150 rats. What a pity he isn't a Chinaman. Mr. Purefoy of Edgefield was in town Tuesday with a load of chick ens that he sold at twenty-five cents apiece. Solicitor Duncan and Col. Youmans passed throug~h Newberry on Satur day. They did not seem to have been much worsted by their encounter in the Irby trial. The dwelling house of Jonas Jeter, colored of Township 4, was destroyed by fire last week. None' of the con tents were saved. Fire supposed to be incendiary. The stationery department connect ed with the HERALD keeps up with the times, and has on hand a large and fine assortment of every article in that line. Clear, bright and beautifuli is the print of the HERALD) this week. A new impression blanket has done it. Nothing is the "matter with Hannah" now. Now is the time to prepare for a spring garden. Put in, potatoes and other seed. Corn may be planted, if it gets nipped, plant a second time. The early bird catches the worm. Louis LeConte who left Columbia three years ago, at which time he was regarded as one of the most promis ing young lawyers in the State, died at South Pueblo, Col., on the 26th. A colored man of Union County. who ran a one-horse farm last year, made iwelve bales of cotton, weighing 475 pounds each, on thirteen acres of land, and about 200 bushels of corn. A new steam mill is ini course of erection at Pomaria, it is being built for Dr. J. A. Berly and Capt. J. D. Wedeman. When the whistle blows you need not look for the engine. Mr. S. A. Evans and other Newber rians who have been working in the railroad shops at Columbia. are now at home, and are no longer connected with the railroad. The road is doing its work effectually. A Vermont debating society will tackle the question: '"Which is the most fun, to see a man try to thread a needle or a woman try to drive a nail." Let the Newberry club decide that question at once. If some enterprising man who has timbered lands near town will es tablish a wood-yard in town and lay in a supply of wood during the spring and summer, he can make money on it in winter. The largest, prettiest, best and cheapest lot of lamps and lamp fixtures ever exhibited to the gaze of a delight. ed public is shown by Dr. F. S. Fant. They are not only shown but are offer. ed for sale. Now is the time to get a lamp. Mother, think of the battle that is being waged by worms against the life of your child. There is no night of rest with them ; they fight to kill, Shriner's Indian Vermifuge will anni hilate them. Only 25 cents a bottle. For sale Dr. S. F. Fant. Newberry has an editor who drani four glasses of butter-milk and fou, glasses of sweet milk at one meal. And he says the milk was no part ol the dinner; it was simply thrown it to fill up the "interstices." Wondel if he's keeping lent. Not the seuio1 editor. There was an unusually lively scent in the Council chamber last Saturda3 night. The attorney for a strange who was charged with riding on the sidewalk, a ed that the policemnar who made te arrest, was mistaker though sincere. The policeman thoughi he saw some one riding on the side walk, but he was suffering from "chim erea of the brain" and was mistaken The brains of the Council were clear Verdiet: Guilty. Announcement! I beg to inform my friends and thi public generally that I am opening u] a stock of FRESH AND RELIABLE DIIJG8 AND MDll)(IINM at the stand but recently occupied by Mr. Dickert as a shoe store. Having selected my stock in person while North recently with a view to serve the public again, as I have done in the past with pure medicines for the lowest values, I respectfully solicit a continu ance of its kind patronage.

Cloud, and hav ing but recently returned from the North with a magnificent stock of Clothing and Gents' FurnishingGoods, makes announcement this week that the public can look for his lar?e advertise ment in next issue. Loot out for it and give him a call. The Irby Trial. The trial of J. L. X. Irby, charged with the murder of Kilgore, took place at Laurens, last week. The trial was begun on Wednesday morning and continued until about four o'clock Saturday afternoon.- The State was represented by Solicitor Duncan (he was not assisted by Genl. Garlington, as many supposea he would be,) the prisoner by Messrs. Pope and Cald well of Newberry, Mr. L. F. Yoimans of Columbia, and Mr. Hugh Farley, of Spartanburg. It is said that the evi dence showed that no one of the bul lets found in Kilgore's body, could have been fired from Irby's pistol; and we are told that the speeches were exceptionally fine. The argu ment closed about 4, p. m., on Satur day, and the jury, after remaining out about fifteen minutes, returned with a verdict of not guilty. The verdict gave general satisfaction. Preparing for a Flood. The following report reached us from Laurens County: A few days ago a number of negro families on Mr. Nathan Whitmire's place, near Mar tin's Depot, decided that another del uge was at hand, and fell to preparing an ark. They tarred and pitched a double frame building, so as to make it as much like Noah's ark as possible, then carried their stock of bacon and chickens and whatever other eatables they had into the ark. They put the children in one room and nailed the door shut. When everything was ready, they closed the ark and waited for results. The results came pretty soon, but they were not of the kind looked for. Mr. Whitmire thought that they might as well play the fool In somebody else's house on somebody else's land, so without much ado, he put an end to their tomfoolery. The rains descended;' the floods didn't coiue, but Mr. Whitmire did in a way that is a warning th all future ark builders. Twenty-Eight in Fine. The following extract will be Inter esting to those who do not know why February was made so much shorter than the other-months: In the distribution of the days through the several months, Cresar adopted a simpler and more commod ious arrangement than that which has since prevailed. He had ordered that the first, third, fifth, seventh, ninth, and eleventh months, that is January, March, May, July, September, and November should have each thirty-one days, and the other months thirty, excepting February, which in common years should have only twenty-nine, but every fourth year thirty days. This order was interrupted to gratify the vanity of Augustus, by giving the month bearing his name as many days as July, which was named after the first Cmsar. A (lay was accordingly taken from February and given to August, and in order that three months of thirty-one days mih not come to gether, September and November were reduced to thirty days, and tihrty-one given to October and December. For so frivolous a reason, was the regula tion of Caesar abandoned for a capri cious arrangement which it requires some attention to remember. A Negro Lad Lives a Week with An Inch of Steel in His Brain. On Monday morning, the 19th, Dr. Pope was called to see Robert Cannon, a negro boy aged about fourteen years. The D)r. treated the patient for inflam mation of the brain, but to his great surprise his medicines werewihu effect ; the case baffled his skill, and on Thursday morning the patient died. When the dead body was 'eing pre pared for burial, a smaln incision which seemed to have been made with a knife, was discovered in the left side of the head. This excited .suspicion, and the Coroner held an iniqucst on Friday, to ascertain the cause of the death. Drs. Pope and Gilder, who made the post mortem examination of the body, testified that Cannon's death was caused by a wound inflicted in the left side of the head near the juncture of the occipital and parietal bones, with a knife, the blade of which hav ing penetrated the brain to the depth of an inch, was broken off, and remain ed in the wound. Two colored witnesses testified that the colored people had a hot supper at the Hoge school-house on the night of the 15thi, and that about midnight, they saw Robt. Cannon and two other boys fighting Anthony Henly, near the school-house. An officer was sent for Henly, a boy of twelve, who tried to make his escape by running. At the inquest, however, he confessed that he inflicted the wound, but said that he was attacked by three boys, and struck in self de fense. He was unembarrassed and gave his evidence in a plain straight forward manner. He has been com mitted to jail to await trial. Though this wound was inflicted on the night of the 15th, Cannon did not suffer from it until the .following Satur day night, and he never mentioned it to any one. A small section of the skull 'with the little blade of an ordi nary pocket knife still firmly held in the wound, was exhibited at the -inquest. This will be kept for the trial, and then preserved as a curiosi ty. Dr. Pope thinks that this case is without a parallel. And nothing but the astonishin features of the case, has led us to dscribe the unfortunate affair so particularly. The charter of the Newberry Cot ton Mills provides that the capital stock shall be not less than $100,000, nor more than $300,000. The amount already subscribed is not far from $100,000; and work will be begun when it reaches $150,000. We are glad to see that Mr. Jas. P. Goggans who has been sick several days, is able to be out again. The HERALD is after the white scoundrel who stole a mule from a good Democratic negro. Bead the advertisement and look out for the man. Catch him and get $20 reward. The card of Dr. W..C. Fisher in this issue needs only to be referred to, as Wood's Odontine has a wide reputa tion.

The March number is one of the most in teresting that has yet appeared of this attrac tive Magnzine. The opening article by Noel Bauthven, "From Balmoral to Osborne," with its eleven flne illustrations, is admirable; and the following will well repay the reader: "Cyclones and Tornadoes." by F. Grundy; "Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden," by Alfred H. Guernsey; "Fires in Theatres and their Prevention," by Horace Townsend; "Ton goes from Tombs-The Mounds of the Uni ted States and the Tombs of Peru." etc., etc. There are interesting sketches and adventures, poens of great merit, and a new serial of great interest is commenced, entitled, "The Beautiful Countess of Clairville."

No invention of the nineteenth century has worked a greater revolution in household economy or conferred more of a benefit on humanity than the sowing machine. The first productions were crude and un couth in the extreme, and it was reserved for American skill and ingenuity to bring forth a machine of any practical value. In order to appreciate the great advance ment which has taken place it is only ne cessar.y to compare one of the machines built during the infancy of the invention with one of the latest improved "Light Running New Home." In the manufacture of this mzchine old ideas have been discarded, and in accord ance with the progress;ve movement of the age new mechanical principles have been substituted. of such inherent and absolute value as cannot fail to commend themselves to the most casual observer. For all kinds of domestic and manufac turing work the "New Home" is unequaled. All the really good points contained in all other machines have been utilized In its construction. Many new improvements and devices have also been added, the re suit of which Is a machine as nearly perfect as it is possible to make one. For simplicity, durability, case of man agement and capacity for work, the "Light Running New Home" has no rival, and the happy possessor of one may rest assured that he or she has the very best the world affords. All who send for the Company's new il lustrated catalogue, and enclose their ad vertisement (printed on another page,) will receive a set of advertising novelties of value to card collectors.

Cyclopedias of Biography are usually made up of an alphabetical list, with brief sketches, principally of the names of whom you have never heard, and to know whom would add greatly neither to your pleasure, nor your mental worth. "The World's Cyclopedia of Biography," now publishing, Is upon a dif ferent plan. It contains only the stories of the lives of the famous men and women who have made the world's history; who are really worth knowing, and who are written about by authors often equally eminent, In the field of literature, with the subjects whom they describe. Each volume Is complete In Itself, so that if you do not want, or cannot af'ord all, you can take what best pleases, or is of most worth to you. The five volumes thus far Issued narrate she achievements of nearly two hundred of the most famous and worthy of the world's heroes. Volume IV, recently published, a very handsome large 12mo., of about 750 pages, for the price of 70 ets., con tains a new and excellent "Life of Washing ton;" a reprint of the standard and thrilling Weems, ''Life of General Marion1" and a new "Life of Oliver Cromwell,' by the brilliant writer, E. Paxton: Hood. To Illus trate the remarkable economy In cost, com pared with previous publications: the pre sent Importing price of the Life of Crom well Is 83-here, in equally good type, hand somely printed, with two other important works thrown in, it costs only 70 cents; even beyond this, as a means of most widely and effectually advertising the biographical series, the publisher will send, postpaid, a paper-bound edition of the H a "Life of Cromwell," to any address, on receipt of 15 cents, and then, If the purchaser desires to secure the bound volume, will credit 15 cents toward the price of the same. It will be strange If such books, at such prices, do not find their way Into almost every home.
