A long article will be found on the first column of the editorial page in reference to this matter, which should be read carefully. Another Overcoat Stolen. Hampton Delany's penchant for overcoats led him to appropriate one belonging to Mr. Jacob Sligh to his own use and benefit on Tuesday even ing of last week. Opportunity present iugle disposed of his entire interest in it to two roadworkers at $2 eacTi. In the meantime Mr. Sligh shivered in uncontrollable grief and cold, until Saturday, when he heard of the sale, and also getting the names of the buy ers, went for them. One of these buy ers of second hand clothing had sold his share to the other fellow who want ed to attend a party with the- entire overcoat on. From him Mr. Sligh bought the coat back-not the coat's back-but the entire garment for $2, and is now happy again. The con elusion of the whole matter is that the -fellow who is out $2 will. go for Mr. Delany, and get the worth of it in epidermis. , Shooting Affray. Wele ,rn that a desperate shooting af fravoecureda iew days ago, just across the Salud. river, in Edgetield County, between Mark Berry and a son of Mr. Wister Swindler, in which the former was seriously wounded. He advanced upon Swindler who was at work in the field and presenting his shotgun, ask ed, "Do you know that you are a dead man?" Swindler said that he did not, and subsequent events showed that he was correct. He sprang upon Berry, wrested the gun from his hands, and red upon him. The load entered the left arm near the wrist and followed it to the shoulder, tearing the flesh in a fearful manner: Berry turned and received the contents of the other bar rel, which proved to be only powder and waddina, in his back. The sup position is that he loaded the gun -in great haste and excitement, and. put both loads of shot in the barrel which was first discharged. Of course a woman was "at; the bottom" of the diffieulty. It is said that Berry's reputation as a debt payer is not good, and a number of doctors refused to' visit him. We have not heard how he is doing. Sniffles and Shad. The intimate relations existing be twen myself and the senior editor of the'erald, made me an eye-witness on Saturday last to a scene of pertur bation into which the latter was thrown by the reception of a box of huge shad, the least one of which weighed over six and the heftiest eight pounds. There were six of them, and spread out in a row, they were beau ties, and each had a row. They came with the compliments of Mr. A. C. Jones to T. F. Greneker. .That is so the card read on one side ; turning~ the card over however, it was seen there were two sides to the question, for on the reverse in beautiful chirographiy appeared 'one each for Silas Johnstone, Dr. S. Pope, 0. L. Sehi. mpert, M. A. Carlisle, J. Y. Culbreath, and the Edi tor.' The first side of that card threw the Editor off his feet into one of his nervous shakes-what to do with so many and so large shad puzzled him, "just like Crane," said he, "he makes his sight too high, and has not the gange of an Editor's stomach." The other side brought him up all standing, and restored him to tranquility again. A happy smile beamed over his Sun day-shaven face, once more he was saved from an agonizing death, in the removal of near fifty pounds of fresh shad from his mental vision, for five other good fellows had to share the lot. I have been requested by these several gentlemen to return thanks to Mr. Jones for his delicious and princely re membrance, and to say that they were perfectly surprised, in that they had no idea that the land commission offiee was capable of showing such fish al ready. If not from the land office whose fish basket did Jones get into. Any how no such shad were ever seen in Newberrv before, and if Jones has any difficulty in explaining they will ask no more questions. Being connec ted with the Editor's family I dined off his shad.

A beautiful stock of Easter Cards at the HERALD Book Store. There will be preaching in the Lu theran church to-morrow morning at e 11 o'clock. The Knights of the Golden Cross are raising money to help the Western flood sufferers. The most beautiful Soda Fountain, which Dr. Pelham bought in New York a short time ago, has come.

Y The increase of business renders it f necessary that the dimensions of the 3 HERALD office be increased. Eyes brighten, cheeks become rosy, r muscles gain strength by the use of Brown's Iron Bitters. t The fame of the Newberry Cotton Factory has reached New York. The - Herald mentions the subscription. t Our next municipal election which will take place on the 10th of April, promises to be unusually quiet. The - Lutheran Sunday School has decided to postpone its Easter Con i cert. Mumps. At one time yesterday there were 1 about twenty bales of cotton on the public squai e, all owned by colored 1 men. The fodder trade has been brisk this - week. This time the farmers are sell ing, instead of buying, and of course - fodd1r is cheap. Dr. Steck is holding an interesting series of nigL mwetings in the Luther an church this week. He will preach to-night and to-morrow night. The present County Commissioners have sent sever:l negr:es to the poor f house. They sent an ancierc dar:ey last Tuesday. - The TTE .D Iook Store will be also en1arged. Then we wiil have room to 1 accommodate the crowd which flocks - in. A few days ago, Mr. David llipp of Pomaria overloaded his store, and broke down -the floor ; this shows that a he has a heavy stock of goods. On Saturday a number of our citi - zens who sympathize with Ireland, r wore green ribbon, in honor of Saint F Patrick. 1 Does every body know the follow ing law: "The charges for weighing cotton shall not exceed ten cents for each bale." e The Charlotte Journal speaks-of an infant seventeen days old, that weighs Ionly one and a half pounds. Its face B is so small that a silver dollar will cov-' -ea it. Our subscription book is kept open 1 night and day for the enrollment of new names, which we are pleased jto say come in steadily, and with the ii ash. - Mr. Petty, of the Carolina Spartan, - very truthfully remarks: "The man B who takes the paper year after year, 1 expecting to beat the editor out of his -subscription, is guilty of a fraud.' A few days ago, we heard a learned , lawyer say " 'famaen,' as Soe rates says." Of course he knew that 'Socrates never spoke a word of latin in his life. s The question has been for -some B time, "Does Good Friday come on the - Sunday before or the Sunday after Easter ?" The average Newberrian answers promptly "The Sunday before SEaster, of course." -. General Youmians says that Newber ry has a strong bar (of lawyers, -under . stand) and that Newberry County can Sboast the handsomest young lady in the State. But we were not asked to j make this opinion public. 1 The guano merchants think the sale -of commercial'fertilizers in our Coun 1 ty this year, will be larger than last -year ; the reason being that this year r we are following a good crop year, a while last year we were following a t bad crop year. The American Agricultterist for April is already to hand, and as usual is Sbrimful of sensible and timely articles .for the farmers. For the farm and s garden we know not of a better author t ity. Terms $1.50 per year. Clubbed B with the HERALD for $3. 1 There is an order on record in the - clerk's office in which Judge Aldrich - directs the County Commissioners to procure a suitable chair for the Judge's -bench, "a cane seat office revolving -chair." That's all we have to say about the matter. s We were shown a specimen of Milo e corn by Mr. Girardeau on Saturday. It was raised by Mr. Champion. The s specimen was very fine, and we think It well worth cultivatino', both as bread a food and for stock. '~f. Champion a says that a dry season only makes it .grow to better advantage.

The question e for next Monday is, Do revolutions ad m vance civilization ? It is surprising that so few of our young men, espbei ally the young lawyers, take an inter , est in these debates.

The Wadlington Will Case. A short time after Maj. Tlos. B Wadlington's death last winter, letter of administration were ranted to hi nephews, Joseph L. Keitt and Thos W. Keitt, who at once took charge o his estate. Not long afterwards, Mr John Bauskett, a first cousin of Maj Wadlington, tiled a petition statin; that the estate had been willed to hin and Betty Reed, colored, Maj. Wai lington's reputed daughter, and askin; that he, as one -f the exezutors, bi allowed to come i:to the Pr;bate Court and prove the will. Thr petition wa resisted by the administrators, on th< ground that the deceased left no will The case came to a hearing last Thurs day. Mr. Bauskett was represented b: Gen. L. F. Youmans; Betty Reed, b, Messrs. Moorman and Simkins; and thi administrators, by Messrs. Suber ani Caldwell. The examination of witnesses oc cupied two days and the evidence was in many places, conflicting, but th' leadinr facts are substantially as fo lows: in 1873 M1aj. Wadlington aske< Mr. Bauskett to write his will, and ha sent him a draft containing directions Mr. Bauskett handed the papers to hi law partner, Mr. W. S. Monteith, an< asked him to do the work. The wil was drawn, according to the directions giving four hundred acres of land, watch and $1,000 to Betty Reed, an the rest of the.property to Mr. Baus kett. Mr. Bauskett was named as es ecutor and al blank was left for the name of a second executor. The wil as drawn was sent to Maj. Wadlington The rough draft of directions was in troduced in evidence. In 1873, R. V. Gist and R. C. Son dle: witnessed a will for Maj. Wadlingtor and they swear that Capt. Jno. . Sondley was the third witness. Capt John Sondley swears that he know nothing about,it, and is positive that h< never witnessed a will for Maj. Wad lington or anybody else. In the spring of 1882 Maj. Wadling ton placed a regularly executed will it the hands of Mrj. Silas Johnstone, an< asked him to draw a new one, makin, some changes. Mr. Johnstone remnem bes that the will was witnessed b: R. V. Gist and some Sondley, but he feels sure that he would have r >tie if Capt. Jno. R. Sondley's name ha< appeared as a witness, that gentlemai being named as one of the executors rThe will must have been that draw: by Mr. Monteith. In the new will Mr Johnstone was directed to provide fo Betty Reed, but the rest of the estat< was to be given to Thomas W. Keit and Miss H~attie Keitt, instead of Mr Bauskett. On the 31st of August 1882, Mr. Johnstone sent both wills t< Maj. Wadlington who was sick an directed them to be put into his desk About two months afterwards he wa rendered helpless by a fall and did no leave his bed until his death. On th< second day after his death, a scare: was made'by Col. Ellison Keitt, assist ed by his sons and daughter, but noth ing in the shape of a will was found except the draft drawn by Mr. John stone; that had never been signed Much evidence was introduced to shoi Maj. Wadlington's feelings toward the Kekts and Mr. Bauskett, but hi unchanged purpose appears to hai been to provide liberally for Bett: Reed. A great deal was said about hi declarations as to the disposition of hi property, but much of the evidene was conflieting. The case seems t< resolve itself mnto two questions: 1 Was the will which is attempted to bi proved ever executed ? 2. If so, wa it revoked by Maj. Wadlington? The aruetwsbegun at 1 o'clock and ended at 8 o'clock o3 Saturday. It was exhaustive, on bot] sides. The Probate Judge will ne reach a decision for several days; ti is about the hardest nut he ever had t crack. In about five years we hopet be able to give the final decision of th Supreme Court in this case. The cas has excited unusual interest '.n ou community, both on account of th novelty of some of its features, an the amount of the property involved.
