House was thronged. by an immeni crowd of all ages, classes and descril tions to witness the clo,ing exhibitio of this deservedly popular school, (tl, first show of the season.) The sight of so many maidens,,frot six to sweet sixteen, all crowded upo the stage at once, was well wort crowding to see. Prof. Pifer understands exactly ho, to please and interest the Newberr public. The humorous and the seriou were so well blended that throughoti the entire programme consisting c essays, recitations, readings, music vocal and instrumental, and calisthen ics, the attention of the audience neve flagged. The exercises were opened witi prayer by the Rev. Luther Broaddu then followed the regular PROGRAMME. PART I. Grand Galop de Concert (Duo Piano). Misses Duncan.

While every separate performanc won hearty applause and the whoh was replete with interest, the essays o: Miss Sallie Wright and Miss Bessik Reese Perkins, read by the young ladies themselves, deserve special no. tice and commendation. Miss W. treat. ed the subject "Whitwash" in a wai altogether new and striking. Many of her ideas were pleasantly piquant an( pointedly practical. The young lady thinks for herself. Sorry we couldn'l hear her more distinctly. The essay by Miss P. was well written, well read, and quite suggestive. Her subject was "The Lost Pleiad." Her question as to the mysterious wandering of Electro, the lost star, put us to think ing. At the close of the literary part oi the programme and while the stagt was being prepared for the CALISTHE NiC ExEcIsE, Prof. Pifer made a few remarks in regard to the school. HE stated that during the past year hc has enrolled ninety-seven (97) pupils and that up to within the last mo:itl] the average attendance had been about seventy-five (75). This is a good show ing for the Professor and his excellent assistant:. During the balance of thi: interim, Miss Sudie Mazyck enter. tained the audience very pleasantly by reading an essay on "Lady Jane Gray.' Then came on the Calisthenic class in uniforms of pale blue and pale pink. making a most striking array. 'Thi class has been under the instruction of Miss Gussie L. Hood, and their per feet drill reflects much credit upon their effient instructress. The endless variety of movements. the involutions and evolutioin of the mazy marches, and all in p)erf ect time were indeed wonderfni and be. wildering. What can not be accom plished by drill! This was the last performance of the evening and was unanimously pronounced the best. Ii needeCd no ap)ology. The behavior of the *idience -was only exceeded by their good looks. and the ever-present small b)oy specially deserves a vote of thanks. Prof. Pifer announcedl that Miss Bessie Reese Perkins had finished th( course of study laid diownt in the Aca demy and that lhe would givec her t certiticate to that effect. The next session of this excelleni institution of learning will begini Sep. temnber 19th, 1883. Inuch success t< the Academy and its teachers atn pupils, one and all. - 11I. Exhibition of Preparatory Depart. ment. The exhibition of the Preparatorl Department of Newberry College was' held in the Opera House last Saturday evening. This is always one of the most interesting featuires of the clos ing exercises of the college, for the boys are naturally regarded with es pecial favor. The audience was larg< and enthusiastic, and the speakern were greeted with rounds of applause and sweet scented flowers. The en tertainment consisted of some twentl speeches, which were short, and fur nished so great variety th:. the in terest of the occasion continued un. abated till the end. Many of the young orators had nev er appeared in the glare of the foot, lights , some of them were mere scraps of boys, whose appearance caused oni almost involuntarialy to mutter, ii advance, "You'd scarce expect one of my age To speak in public on the stage." There were boys of many sizes, an< they showed different degrees of tast4 ln selceting their extracts, as well a different degres of excellence in de livering them. This multitude 0: speakers furnished not one failure but some of them did remarkably well We think, however, that it is.niot bes to make special mention of those wh< were nmost successful-some of then had won applause on formeroccasionis After the speaking a medal, award ed by the teachers,. for general excel lence in deportment and classetandl ing, was presented to Zack Wi ight, b3 G. G. Sale, Esq., with a short and ap propriate presentation address. Zack it will be remembered, chamnpionet the steam engine, in a (debate, 0om year ago, and was applauded to thi echo. Taken altogether, the exhibi tion was a success, and the parent: and teachers of the boys should fee gratitied. This department has beei under the administration of Profs Bittle and Werber, during the tern just closed, who have done thorough work, in a quiet and unostentation The exercises on Satmiday nigh were interspersed with a variety 0 excellent music-piano, violin, and eor net-and the audience went home ii a perfectly good humor.

An Interesting Letter. SALUDA MILLS. NEWBERRY CO. Messrs. Editors:-I see in your issu of the 14th a very interesting an complimentary article concerning th, High School and town of Prosperity and the lower section of the county which article ought to be replied to b; this section in the highest terms ani compliments to your eexcellent paper You have always been ready to publisi any article from our section, and yoi have encouraged us in our enterprise: and our principal vocation, farming. We believe in home-made corn wheat, and oats; we believe in mann facturing our own cottou, and conumn ing our own produce so as to build ul our farmers and other citizens. W< should manufacture our cotton to make it as profitable as possible, and buil< up our cities and towns. To make on country prosperous, we must increas< the productiveness of our soil to it, greatest capacity, we must encourag and patronize the manufactures of ou: own country so as to make them valu able. We mast make labor honorabli and proittable, and make good whole some laws. Then will capital anm skilled labor come to our State; them will our schools and colleges flourish then will our churches and mission; succeed, and your subscription list bi doubled. If we will pursue this polic for ten years we will be astonished a our success; it is our produce an patronage that have made Mas sachusetts, Rhode Island and othe places, what they are. The site of the old Saluda Mills i situated three-fourths of a mile aboy MeNary's Ferry. Here is a never failing water-power, suflicien t to rm machinery to almost any extent,i properly :1pplied. Our section is now visited with : severe drouth; andl some of our bes river bottom is not ypt planted, it be ing too hard and dry I have resorte< to this *plan: I took some of my dia mond pointed steel plows and trimme off the right hand corner, making sidi or twister plows of thenm.- I then rai two furrowvs in one, right where thm old1 corn stalks stood, as deep as could. 1 then dropped the seed, oni hill of corn and one of peas. Wha I planted eight or ten days ago, is comn ing up pretty well. By pursuing thi plan, if the latter rains soon set ini, good crop of late corn can be made. J. H. B. SLIMER 8EA80IN8.

Visitors comlenced coming in before it commenced. A cow on Mr. Walter Barre's place has twin calves, a bull and a heifer, that are large and healthy. Mr. J. D. Senn has decorated our desk with quite a number of cotton blooms. We haven't heard anybody com plaining of dry weather, for the last three or four days. Every man in Newberry is invited by Wright & J. W. Copnock to don one of their elegant white or colored Vests. A very heavy, washing rain fell in the lower part of the County, Monday. i evening. If commencement had coie earlier, do you suppose the drouth would have continued so long? Last Saturday the Thomason Bros. sold $35 worth of parasols. Verily the "sun do" shine.

Harmon placed on our table, Tuesday, a fine stalk of cotton. - It contained two blossoms, and about twelve shapes.' We hope the rains that visited town extended far e nough to mellow the clods in the 1;ottoms of our Saluda -Mill's correspondent. We take pleasure in recording a - shower of rain Thursday night and I another Friday afternoon, and a better 3 oue Monday an I Tuesday niight. Mr. Geo. M Whirter says we will have plenty of rain from now on till September next. If this proves true it is advised th::t farmers plant largely of corn. The young people indulged in a t pleasant "hop'' at the Newberry Ho tel, after the speaking Tuesday night. The ball cost::nes added greatly to thme attractiveniess of Col. Aiken's au dience. We have given much of our space I this week, to our schools. They de serve considlerationI, and, besides, very little of general interest has occurred ill our State, for a week or more. Dr. Steck's sermon before the grad u ating class of the WValhalla Female College,jwon the very highest com mendation. He maintained the prop osition "that the mental force of the female, is equal to that of the male." SThe fire company failed to meet last . Friday night. About ten members . collected at the Opera House door, but the foreman and the committee on .constitution being absent, they ad journed subject to call of the Town 'Council. - A gentleman living a short distance from towni is the owner of a cow, a r calf and a sow that have formed a rath er curious alliance. The sow sucks - the cow, and, 0on the principle that fair exchange is no robbery, she furnishes I nourishment to the calf. The good wife of a subscriber to the SHERALD says that some unregenerate thief always hooks the HERALD from her husband's store, so that she never - $ts to see it. She wants us to stop the theft.

SYNDERTOWN, June 19.-Last night Mrs. Moore, a widow, who lives with her young son in an old dilapidated house at Brush Valley, near here, was startled by hearing a shriek, followed by agonizing yells, in the room next to hers, occupied by her son, a youth about sixteen years of age. In a fright she ran into the room and found ths boy al most dead with fear and trembling in every limb. She quieted his fears and questioned him, and after considerable delay he told her that about twelve o'clock, while listening to the furiously raging storm, he was startled by seeing through the dim light of a lamp which burned in the room a man raising the window. Almost paralyzed with fear he sat up in bed, unable to move, until by the aid of a vivid flash of lightning he perceived the features of the man to be those of his father, who was killed in the mines five years ago. With the shriek that had so startled his mother he sank on the bed and the intruder fled hastily. THE MOTHER SEES THE FACE. When the mother had heard his story she turned her gaze toward the winaow and beheld the identi cal face pressed against the pane. With a terrific yell she sprang to the window, and raising the sash jumped through, striking the ground, I twenty-five feet below, with terrific force and injuring herself fatally. The shrieks and moans of the young Moore brought a few neighbors to the spot, and they carried the limp body of the woman into the house and after a few. hours' labor suc ceeded in bringing her to sensibility. As soon as she fixed her eyes on her son she burst into a violent fit of laughter, in .which the son jofned and which lasted until both fell to the floor exhausted. - On the part of young Moore the fit of laughter was then followed by violent spasmodic attacks. He foamed at the mouth, barked like a dog and made vicious snaps at those who attempted to quiet him. 0 MADNESS EPIDEMIC. A young farmer named Herrick went up to him and, while attempt ing to quiet him, caught hold of his hand. No sooner had he done so than he too was seized with fear ful spasms and writhed on the floor in intense agony, exhibiting the peculiar symptoms manifested by the others. The few other neigh bors who had come to the scene were so badly scared as to be of little assistance, and they fled pre cipitately, leaving the three maniacs alone in the rooms. Mrs. Moore was stark raving mad and soon the two young men were busy at work demolishing the furniture and strik ing one another. One of the wo men who had at first rushed to the scene ran home and returned with her father, an old army sergeant named Billheimer, who ran into the room and. grasping Herrick, threw him to the floor and, putting his foot upon his breast, bound him with bed ropes. He then secured young Moore in a like manner. Mrs. Moore was bleeding from the wound received from falling out of the window and lay on the floor insen sible. Lifting her in his arms Bill heimer carried the woman to the open air, the storm having ceased. A PHYSICIAN IN ATTENDANCE. One of the neighbors had mount ed a horse about one hour before and ridden at full speed across the rough country road in search of a doctor. After a long search he found one and brought him to the stricken family.. The young man Herrick was taken home by his father in the morning and another physician attended him. No hope is entertained of Mrs. Moore's re covery, Her son was unusually violent this morning and could scrcely be held by four men. The case has occasioned much excite ment among the farmers through out the neighborhood. Mrs. Moore's husband was killed in the mining region five years ago. She and her son are practical, steady people. Young Herrick is not so violent, but arrangements are being made for his removal to an asylum. Mrs. Moore was in a sinking condition this evening, and she will hardly live until morning. RICHMOND, June 26.-Gen. James Conner, who had been ill here for three weeks, died here this after noon at 2.20, at the house of John Enders, Esq., his father-in-law. 11 is thought that the campaign of 1876 severely taxed his health. Certainly from that time till his death he was never entirely well. In South Carolina, the number of farms in 1870 was 51,880, and in 1880, 93,864. This increase is en couraging. It is said that the Republicans have discarded Gen. Chalmers, the white renegade who undertook to Mahoneize Mississippi. Last Saturday evening a panic oc curred in Victoria Hall, London, and 186 children under the age of twelve were fatally crushed. Ninety-three thousand acres of land were planted with timber in Kansas last year.
