It shows that the faculty of the college is full; the standard of -scholarship high; and expenses moderate. Sixty eight students were in attendance last session. Columbia Female College. One of'the most attractive College catalogues that we have seen is that of the above institution. The attend anee during the last scholastic year was good.

TeCotton Fcoy The contract for building the Factory has been closed with W. T. Davis, of Greenville, the builder of the Pied mont Factory. He is to furnish the lime, sand and cement. and the direce tors the rest of the mnaterial-wod and stone. He expects to have his material ready so as to begin work by the 10th of August. A bid was made by certaiu.gentlemen of Augusta, and the differene was only a few hundred dollars. A Model Trial Justice. Newberry has a citizen who has been serving his County as a trial justice for some thirty years. His decisions have. as a rule, been regarded as law and acquieseed in. There was neve: an appeal from his court until this year. This only appeal was heard by Judge Ker4ihaw at the last termi of Court, anc the de.cisiou of the Trial Justice was sustain.-d. What officer can make b!t ter showing than Squire J. B. Hel ler? .lapa Bienic. The picnic given by the school od Miss g. Chalmers. at ~Jalapa, on Tutes day, was a decided success. The Ed. w:~ ho represented the HERALD says it was a delightful affar; and he thinks Jalap:t has an agreeable way of doiung things well. The dinner was sumptuous. The amusiemenlts of the day consisted1 of dancing. the old fashioned game of marbles, and the older-fashioh'd game of love. Time widlowers and widows were out in force-and the Jalap: neighborhood takes the cake at an ex N hibition of this kind. No Charge for Consultation.

The last fire was disastrous in its effects, but from the frequency of the visits of this dread monster it was scarcely calculated to make Newberry Startled! r It now requires something else to pro ducc such a restlt. The Phcnix Drug Store, like the fabled bird of yore, un folds its wings and saiis triumphantly in an atmosphere of more-than-expect ed success. . All of. The Members Aof society, cosmopolitan in its composi tion, now look with pleasure on its happy existence. Every one recogniz es the fact that Pelham's Drug store is the .place to purchase pure and reli able drugs and medicines. From the most august and polished member of The jotus CuIb down to the humblest street Arab, this fact has been tacitly acknowledged. Why? ' Because all of -our old stock was totally destroyed: we purchase only the best and purest goods; we endeavor to give the best goods for the I least money; we try to treat all polite ly. Some one has suggested that In surance Agents be Indicted as a Gang of evil doers, let some be convicted and such action would stop the fires. In our most humble opinion we think water is the best thing to stop fires and offer as a counter-suggestion the purchase of a few more "Young Johns." While suggesting we would also advise the general public to pay us a visit before purchasing their drugs, medicines and fancy goods. Some seem to have an idea that druggists, as a rule, are a set Of llGlAY ROBBERS, such ideas as these immediately vanish after one or more visits to Pelham's Dru- Emporium, where everything is marled down to rock bottom figures. Let all "doubting Thomases" come and be convinced. Our prescription department is supplied with only the best. Our supply of drugs and patent medicines is full and complete. Our stock of fancy goods is unsurpassed. Fresh stock of 'lurnip Seed just in. The Faculty of Newberry. College Complete. The Standing Committee of the Board of Trustees met last week, and made some changes in the faculty, which is now complete and stands as follows: Rev. G. W. Holland, A. 3i., Presi dent, Professor of Mental and Moral Science and English Literature. O. B. Mayer, A. 3., 31. D., Physiol ogy and Hygiene. C. W. Welch, A. 3., Mathematics and Astronomy. B. W. Bittle, A. 3., Chemistry, and Physics and Modern Languages. . Rev. J. Steck, D. D., History i Political Science. Rev. Holmes Dysinger, A. M., An cient Languages and Literature. Rev. A. J. Bowers, A. 3., Principal of Preparatory Department. G. E. Werber, A. B., Assistant. We know all the members of the faculty, with one exception, and we d'o not hesitate to say that the college is prepared to do thorough work, or that it deserves the patronage of our people. Prof. Dysinger comes highly recom mended. Prof. Holland met him in Charlotte a few daiys ago, and was so much pleased with him that he at once proposed his name for the position which he has accepted. Mr. Bowers has accepted the posi tion of Principal of the Preparatory Department. He is too well known in this community to need commendation from us. After the Fire. Last (riday morning, after the town had time to collect its th~oughts, it was remembered that Joe Hlimes' black smith shop in Amasoka stands over a large quantity of water that might have been used upon the fire. Under the shop is a large cellar, about 20 by 40 feet. in which the wateg is some two feet deep. The water is furnished by a bold spring; it is clear and can1 not be easily exhausted. From this cellar the engine could have reached any part of the fire with ease. Friday afternoon the engine was stationed at the cellar and a stream of water thrown upon the snmouldering ruins, for an hour and a half-about :200 gal l ons per minute-and the supply was not nearly exhausted. With this water supply, on Thursday night, it is confi -dently believed that four of the burnt stores could have been saved. And many of our citizens knew of its exist ence. The safes of Wright & Coppock and 0. HI. P. Fant were opened as soon as they were cool enough, and the coin tents found comparatively uninjured. R. H. Wright and Simeon Pratt in tendl to rebuild their stores without delay. A crowd hung around the burned buildings nearly all (lay Friday. And some negroes who had a keen smell for edibles, took a large quantity of damaged corn and bacon from Mc Whirter's stock-with his consent. Wright & Coppock have opened in the Master's office, in the Crotwell Building. Geo. McWhirter has opened in the cotton office of Hunt & Singleton, below Martin's. Dr. E. C. Jones will 'be found in Dr. Sale's 01(1 office, over Mrs. Mlower's Peoples & .Johnson will' open a new stock in the store just above Riamage's. -0. H. P. Fant will reopen just be low Leavell's Furniture Store. When the fire reached Peoples & Johnson's supply of cartridges, the sound was very much like that of a militia skirmish. The bullets nmust have been thrown with considerable force, for on the next day we saw one gentelman limping from the effects of a stray shot. The Fire Company Met Monday night and the follow ing new names were enrolled : J. W. Talor, J. S. Wells, J. P. Reagin, J. W.' ite. T. D. Lake, J. W. Chap man, and T. E. Greneker-and all the members present signed the .constitu tion. The committee on uniforms reported the probable cost of uniforms. The committee appointed to solicit sub scriptions from the citizens reported the amount subscribed $225; and $6'7 by the officers. This amount ilot be ig sufficient, the committee was con tinued. A resolution. was adopted, thank ing those citizens who have contrib buted to uniform the company. -The President's uniform will be des ignated with two stars, the Vice-Presi dent's, with one ; Director's, two slashes. and Foreman's one slash. The position of 2nd Director having been made vacant by the appointment of C. A. Bowman 2nd Asst. Chief, L. v. Hammel was elected 2nd Director. S. B. Jones was appointed Foreman of Squad 2. The Council has ordered 300 feet of additional hose for the engine. The company will meet again next Wennasdoy night. ON THE WAY AND BY THE WA' LEAVING GLENN'S-PLEASANT RID FEWER HILLS AND ROCKS-REV. J. B. CAMPBELL-REV. WHITE FOORD SMITH-GOOD STREETS-A TALE LEAVE FOR G AFF NEY-A WET TING. I left Glenn's on Saturday mornin; last, while the dew on the grass wa shining. and fortified by as good a cul of cof'ee As ever man drank. and dish of the browniest brown of the in evitable chicken fry, I was able to ge over the twelve miles which lie be tween the Springs and Spartanburg The ride was much pleasante going from than to the Springs then I was tired. fagged out, an broken to pieces. The two week's res enabled me to place THE BROKEN PIECES TOGETHER, the water cemented the parts. and was restored. The road, too, scenic straighter, the miles shorter, the breez softer, the hills fewer, the holes not s large, nor the stumps, rocks and bouid ers so often in the way. This trans formation scene may have been thi result of my changed condition. Ar rived at Spartanburg I headed for thi Parsonage House of THE REV. J. B. CAMPBELL, and could not possibly have receive< a more cordial welcome had been a "long lost brother," a sister o a mother. It was refreshing. Such dinner as the good wife and mothe: had prepared is sometimes made thi theme of lengthy eulogy. I will not (14 this; suffice it was good and carried mi in mind to home and home dinners Mrs. Campbell enjoys better heaitl than when in Newberry, while thi scions of the family from primari down to the .five-year baby are th< pictures of lalth. I have seldon met a happi'.r family. Sunday I listen ed to the old man eloquent, the REV. WHITEFOORD SMITH in the Methodist church. He is heav3 with age, and heavy with honors reap ed in the Maste"s service, and whilt he is not as strong and animated, no as forcible as when I heard him in ok Trinity in Charleston, and later in the Columbia Washing on Street chur'-1 in my younger (lay yet I recognizei some of the old fire. He is now aboul 75 years of age. Some of the street: of Spartanburg are delightful roa' beds since the work of macadamiza. tion has been (lone, and no longer wil: the unfortunate teamster suffer ruir and wreck in loss of wagon and horses as was the case here two winters ago. I am told that one horse was actuall, drowned in the mud. and two other dragged.out scarcely breathing. RUMOR TELLS A TALE, but about its being "o'er true" depon ent sayeth not. It is in this wise, the top of a hat was seen floatin;r o the surface of a sheet of mud in Churc street, and upon some one taking holi of the hat to draw it out a voice wa: heard to issue from the stirring. oozv depths below, "let go that hat, i belongs to me." The party below wa. asked if he "was not in a bad fix;' "oh, no,'' Vid he, "not at all, but ms horses and wagon below me are. am I am trying to get them out" I dic not hear whether they ever came t< the surface or not, but Smith's swamp, as the spot was called, is now filled up and sealed over with granite, and thenI is no way of getting dlown to ascertair the final end of that traveller and hi team. I leave here this morning at 1L for Gaffney City, and regret that I can, not in this letter tell of igy experienet( in that lively and growing city, for th< reason that I am nut teere yet, a were I to wait until getting there mj letter would be too late. I will hav< the pleasure of seeing the "banquet ing" hall of the late meeting of the Press Association, and learn in wha1 estimation the members are held by the goodly citizens. I forgot to relate an account of AN ACCIDENTAL SHOWER BATH which suddenly struck me on Frida, night last. MIaj. J. P. Kinard, occupy ing the attic chamber of my cabin, dit not come in as early as an old gentle man should have done. He saidl 1h had been looking on at the (lance. suppose it was true.. He crawled uj and prepared for bed. and the noise h< made in dropping shoes and stick 01 the fioor, in dragging the table, am sundry other feats kept me awake. Al length there was a lull and I dlozed thinking that lie was in bed, but alas there was another sound. it was not s< loud, or harsh, but it proved penetrat ing and stru'ek me not in the head, bu on my breast. It was water. fortu nately clean, mineral water, place< there for a bath. Th le Major "put hi: foot ini it," like the cow did the pail o milk, and( I received the flow on m: breast. With a yell, which alarme' my next door neighbors, I sprang fron bed. The Major was of course sorr: and wanted to bring down his bed fo me, but luckily my friend Capt. S offered mec part of his bed. andl I final ly slept the sleep of the righteous Eugene being asleep and on the othe. side of the wet was left there.

Editors :-I asserted in my first 1;tter that Massaebusetts, Rhode Island, and other countries were built up by our patronage and produce. I wish to show in this letter how that was (lone. Before Independence the British American colonies were compelled to trade with England only; this gave England the benefit and profits of their trade. She set her own price upon what she bought from them, as well as upon what she sold to them. and she sold to advantage to other European nations. This gave England superior _ advantages over her colonies, and other nations, and she rose with rapid strides i to wealth and power. Not satisfied with these advantages, she began to exact a tax, or duty on her exports to the colonies without allowing them representation in Parliament. This policy could not go on without increas ing the duties and placing the colonies completely at the mercy of the mother country. Then came on the war of Indepenidence: and the colonies were proclaimedfree and independent States. But this did not change the tide of trade materially. Liverpool has been the mart and emporium of our cotton trade to this day; and the manufacture of our cotton, combined with her own agriculture has made England one of the greatest nations of earth. She can go thousands of miles for her cotton, and fully compete with any other country, in its manufacture. I wish to show that to make a coun try great and prosperous, agriculture and manufacture must be combined. England connected her manufacturing and agricultural interests, and eajoyed our patronage and commerce; and she has done as much as any other coun try, if not more, in civilizing and christianizin? the world. The manu facturer and agriculturist constitute the wealth of the country, all others are consumers. When the mills are far from the cotton, there are a great many middle men to be paid-the merchant's profit, drayage, storage, shippage, insurance and other tolls. During the first half century of the United States. manufacturing by ma chinery was not much practised, but. was mostly accompiilcd by hatid. About the year 1828 some of the New England States began to turn' their attention to manufacture. Before that time all the laws conformed to the ag ricultural interests of the country. The Southern States having the advant age in climate, soil and productiveness, seemed to have the aseendeIcy in the government during this time; and most of the presidents were chosen from the Southern States. The New Eng land States seeing that they could not prosper by agriculture alone, to any great extent, from their inferior climate and soil, tuined their attention to manufactures. There they met a powerful rival in Great Britain which had controlled the trade up to this time. The New England mnanufactum ers asked Congress to levy a protective tariff on certain imported goods, so as to let' the American maiufacturer have the advantage in price. 'he cot ton States opposed these measures with all their might, Sonth Carolina taking the lead, and in 1833 they nulli lied the tariff Act. This w:s the commencement of a dispute which was destined to do great evil to the cott< n States. They accus ed the Norther" manufacturers of op posingfree tradi and States' rights, and impoverishing lhe Soutsherni producer. At the same time; New England and old England at';ncked African slavery at the South. In 1860) the dispute termi nated in the bloody war of Secession, and finally in defeat to the cotton States. The eo..:troversy had a strange effeet; instead of imp)overishinlg the manufacturers. it built te p h uotnpaters weeprejudiced against Southern mnanu :aeture; they neglected to support thei: neighbors, but-threw their patronage in favor of thme North, anid built up stirong monopolies there. My opinion is t hat when New England freed the Sout! erni slaves, she killed the goose that 'aid the golden egg. If slavery had c mntiniued, the cotton States would ha ;e gone on as they were; they were satis led to make cotton with the'slaves, and exchange it for Northern goods. But the Southern people hat-e opened their eyes. No longer able to buy slaves, they are investing their money in factor~ies. If England has been i-endered so rich and powerful by combining agriculture and manu facture, when she had to send twvo thousand miles for her cotton, and other maiterial to be manufactured, what ought a country to do that has thme cotton at her doors-without any expense in shipping or hauling ? By combining the agricultural and manu facturing interests, as in New Eng land and old England, agriculture is brought to the highest perfection ; the producer feeds the manufacturer, the nmanutfacturer clothes and furnishes the agriculturist. Th'le midd(le interests that lie between the two indlustries, are Iwhat make the difficulties. They are continually striving for better profits, better tra(de, better laws and regula tions for their business. This creates taxes, tariffs a.mad re,oenue to be collect ed out of the c oducer. The remedy for all this is to bring the mills to the cotton. Let our farm ers take stock in factories in their own neighborhood where the cotton can be ginued, spun, wove into goods. Those goods will find a market. and the ships of other nations will land at our ports to be lhaded with our goods; and our cities will increase in size and wealth.
