The cyclone of the previous week was too vividly fresh in their minds to allow of their quietly sleeping. ITFe nd of Flowers. Mrs. M. -R.

We are sorry to learn that Miss Octa si1a Oarlington has been compelled to solicit a leave of absence as. teacher in the graded school in Columbia, on ac count of ill health. She is suffering from a bronchial affection. She expec ted to return to her duties on Monday, but her physician thought it imprudent to do so. This is quite a disappoint ment to this lady, as she has taken great pride in teaching, and feels a great interest in the success of the gra ded schools. Not Happy. L.aureua County people must be do ing well. One familyhas sorghum mo lasses made during the war. In .another family "an old lady" has just gnade up a cotton dress out of cloth Swoven during the war. Another has an iron candle stick over one hundred years old. also a wooden churn, that -was brought from Virginia with the candlestick and it has been in use ever since. Another man has swapped his mule for a fiddle. Still another has a cow that has been giving milk regu -larly for seven years. The grain crop Is looking well, and yet those Laurent people are not happy. More of the Storm. WVe learn that the section of county in which Mr. D. S. Graham lives was also severely visited by the storm. This gentleman's house was raised up seerIfeet and let down again with out-damaging it. He had four acres of oak timber l1terally cut down, besides much pine timber destroyed. His chim neys were also damaged. His st.able and tenant houses were unroofed. Mr. Robt.

The Cotton Plant Grows in importance, and is now in its ninth number, reaching out and ta king deeper root in an appreciative soil. We are pleased that its energet ic proprietor, Mr. W. J. McKerrall is making a success of the Cotton Plant. Its exceeding low price, only 60c. a year, puts It down so low that the man who heglects to take it, ranks himself among the unpardonably indifferent. We can give no better advice than this-send 60e. to the proprietor at Marion, S. C., and secure the best and the only agricultural paper published in the State. Speak it Aloud. "Tell it not in Gath, nor speak it in the streets of Askalon," for what good will it do the Gathites. or they of Askalon, or what' will it benefit the individual we design to honor? not a speck, not a mite, not a shadow. But shout it aloud inthe streets of New berry, of Prosperity, of Pomaria, of Jalapa, or any other of the priucipal cities in the county of Newberry. Yes, breathe It, speak it, shout it, thunder it, from early morn till dewy eve, that C. F. Jackson has withdrawn from publie gaze that dilapidated garment which has beci for so long rotting on the historic bush. It was a sorry piece of clothing known to him and to many others as credi. He now sails under the broad pennat of eask, and the smallest of smal profits. The foundation of his house is now of solid rock, and not as before of sand. See his card. Another Rescue from Death. In 1881, while Sewing on a machine, my wife was taken with a severe pain in her side, which was soon followed by hemorrhages from her lungs, se vere cough, fever, and she could neither eat or sleep, and in a few weeks she was reduced to a living skeleton. Her stomach refused to retain any food and the physician thought one of her lungs was entirely gone. At a final consultation of two physicians her case was pronounced hopeless. Itried Brewer's Lung Restorer by advice of one of the physicians and she began to improve after the third dose. She continued the inedicine and is now in excellent health, and Is better than she has been in several years. I believe Brewer's Lung Restorer saved her life. BENJ. F. HERNDON, Yatesville, Ga. Preacher's Meeting. The ministers of the town have be gul a weekly preachers' meeting at which they exchange views and dis cuss questions connected, with their preaching and pastoral work. At the meeting last Monday morning the fol lowing resolution was adopted : Resolved, that we the pastors of the several churches in the town of New berry do hereby express our sincere and profound conviction, that indul gence in the modern dance, on the part of professing christians, is detrimental to their religious influence, hurtful to their spirituality an<i tends to moral evil; and we do, therefore, most ear nestly and affectionately urge the members of our churches :o abstain from this worldly amusement.

We neglected saying in the last issue of the HEEALD that tfhe dog bor,ght by Suimes and presented to us can be seen in the Book Store. We have never before seen a dog of this species, so marked in its characteristics, so ut terly utter a Bull Dog in look, and yet so gentle, so kiud. Thbe expres sfon that butter will not melt in the mouth, never found a better applica tion than in our dog's case. Could we trace his pedigree back we feel confident that a kin-ship could be es tablished between, him and Old Dog Tray, he who was so gentle and so kind. Come and see our dog reader, we are satisfied that you will be pleas ed with him. To save unpleasant feelings, do not try to buy or.beg him from us, we tell you now that he is not for sale, nor can we part with him. Sweet Gum.

The Teachera Association of Newberry County met on Saturday, March 1st, in the Female Academy. The attendance was fiat. tering, much larger than at any previous meeing. Several Teaehers indicated a wish to become members. The question previous v selected for discussion at this meeting was: "What is the best mothed oftschool govern mnt" The discussion was opened by the President of the association,Capt. Pifer. He maintained that the prime object to be ob taed by the teacher was the attention of the pupils. He said that punishment should be rare, but certain and immediate. Ho said he would emphasize the remark that irmness, kindness, self control were the es sential requisites of a good teacher. The farther discussion of the subject was partici pated in by President Holland, Profs. Welch and Cork, and Superintendant Boyd. and Mr. Banks. The question of corporeal punishment was incidentally brought into the discussion. On this point, the association seemed about equally divided, some maintaining that there was mnch vir tue in the rod, while others hogt it worked an tnjury. The next meeting will be held on tie first Saturday In June, and the question selected fo d-cussion is "The best method for teach ug English Grammar." The diseussion will be opened by Prof. J. C. Cork of Prosperity. Every teacher in the County should make It a point to attend. bd' n get youltt.

This country is level, and easy to cultivate, they make good crops here when they get Seasons ; from S to 2400 pounds of seed cot ton. per acre; 10 to 30 bushels of corn, rice, and all other crops in proportion. Potatoes, peas, sugar cane, anAt all kinds of fruits do well, oats also do well, but wheat can't be raised on account of Eust. The ponds and streams abound with fish and alligatos I have had fish nearly every m'al. The game is deer, wild turkey. rabb..:s. coon, oposum, quails, larks, doves, and sach birds as we have in Newberr. some of the farmers Ijre have planted corn and sugar cane, anf all have their land Inse i te Coleto Press, that Newber ry has out several candidates already. I know it was gettinir time to sow in the gar den, and plant Irish potatoes, but thought it too soon to plant out Candidates. I thoughtlI would be a candidate, but I will not get home in time to start even. so I will nominate Sniffles in my place. I miss the Herald y much. I lhke to read i amazen well, (.ousin Tom Greneker, and sniffles have so many funny pieces in the paper. Tel lDit, your Jalapacorrespondent, that Uncle Wesley is all right, and as hap py as a june bug. The weather down here is windy and frosty, we had a heavy frost this morning. but warm and cloudy while I write this evening. The storm between Eamburg and Midway can hardly be described, it was so sudden and terrific. More Anon. MLAIto. COt. JoHN T, SLOAN, SR., is a candidate for Secretary of the State. All right. We do not endorse much of what Colonel LrsCoMa teaches, but if he is to be made an object of attack, let us open the fight all around. No one element or set can rule this State. Col. LrsCOMrB is the solitary represen tative of up country farmers-the men who do the bulk of the Dem ocratic voting-in the State House. If he has to leave, let us have a gen eral leaving and changing. We advise the very astute and distinguished gentlemen who are managing the party and the State to nip this movement in the bud, lest a hornet's nest be stirred up-Green vile News. .
