Under the present railroad schedules the Constitution is not of much use'to our business men, as it arrives bore the day after, publication.

Mias Fannie Thomas, Emaliu8 Williams, Burt Williams: Miss Anna Wilcox, while walking from her residence to the city on Wednesday morning, fell upon the snow, injuring her? self so that she was unable to proceed un? til assistance came, an honr afterwards. Fortunately no bones were broken, and we hope she will soon be entirely recovered from the effects of her fall. A correspondent of the Charleston Newt and Courier, writing from Townville, this County, under date of January 6, Mjrs: "Mrs. Adam F. Cromer, a most excellent lady of this community, bnt formerly a resident of Newberry .County, died yester? day. Bot a few weeks ago the younger of her two only daughters died. A few days after this the elder, dnring a fit of melan? cholia induced by the loss of her sister, at? tempted to end her existence by cutting her throat and otherwise mutilating her person with a knife, from the effects of j which she now lingers on the verge of the grave," The following, taken from an exchange, is wholesome advice, and should be repd and heeded by every boy : "Boys and yonnr men sometimes start out into life with the idea that one's success depends on sharp? ness and chicanery. They imagine if a man is able to 'get the best of a bargain,' no matter by what deceit and meanness he carries his point, that his prosperity is as? sured. This is a mistake. Enduring pros? perity cannot be founded on cunning and dishonesty. The tricky and deceitful man is sure to fall a victim, sooner or later, to the influences which are forever working against him. The future of that young man is safe who eschews overy shape of double dealing, and lays the foundation of his career in the enduring principles of everlasting truth." The cold wave which set in on the night of the 31st nit continued withont much Variation until last 8a turd ay afternoon, when there was a change. - As the night set in,'everybody began to realize that Winter had surely come. It gradually grew cold? er during the night, and when Sunday morning dawned it was generally admitted that it had been the coldest night experi? enced in this section in several years. Early in'the morning the thermometer in several dwelling houses stood 7 degrees above zero, and one gentleman said his thermometer, hanging in the hall, got down to 5 degrees. Doubtless out in the open air the mercury would have gone to zero. The ponds in and around the city were frozen over, the loa on some of them being f lick enough to hold np a person's weight. In many households the oil in the lamps were frozen. The sun shone out Sunday, but it did not hare much effect on the ice or frozen ground. It was extremely cold throughout Sunday and Monday. On Monday night a heavy fall of snow and sleet occurred, and from the present state of the weather it is likely to remain on the ground for several days. The cold wave seems to have been general. Reports from all over the State say that it has been the coldest weather felt in many years. In some of the Northwest? ern States it is reported that the thermom? eter s:x>od from thirty to forty-five degrees below zero. A terrible snow storm is also reported from tht same sections. A Home Enterprise. Several months ago we made mention of the fact that a Sash; Blind and Door Fac? tory had been established in Anderson. Since then the Factory has been steadily at work. The other day we concluded to visit the establishment and see the machinery at work. ' The Factory buildings are located on De? pot street, near the railroad track. The gentlemen composing the firm are Messrs. A. H. Osborne, Wm. McGnkin and M. A. Snipes, under the firm name of Osborne. McGukin & Co. On entering the building we met up with Mr. McGnkin, who took charge of us and carried us through the Factory, showing us the various machines and explaining their operations. To at? tempt a description of all the machinery we saw there would consume more time and space than wo have at oar command at present The hnm and buzz of the ma? chinery made us feel and realize for the first time that such an establishment existed in Anderson, and it deserves more than a passing notice. The machinery in use was purchased in person by a member of the firm, and con? sequently they have the very latest im? provements. Their planing machine alone cost about $1,200, and will dress about 20,000 feet of lumber per day. This machine is perhaps the largest this side of Charleston After a piece of lumber leaves the planer, it is not many minutes before it is made into a door, sash, blind or other desired piece of wood work, everything being done by ma? chinery, except patting tt together. Con? sequently, with a comparatively small number of hands, the Factory is enabled to turn oat rapidly a vast amount of work. In reply to a question as to what success the Factory was meeting with, we were told that it was almost impossible to keep up with their orders. They are not only selling work in the adjoining Counties of this State, bnt in the neighboring Counties of Georgia. The gentlemanly proprietors superintend the work themselves, and allow nothing bat the very best of material to bt used, conse? quently wherever their work goes it speaks for itself. They use heart-pine timber al? together, which is, of course, more durable than the white-pine work commonly brought here from foreign factories. Every? thing needed about a house, such as doors, sash, blinds, mantles, brackets, &c, is man? ufactured here, and as their business in? creases the firm intend adding to their ma? chinery. This is a home enterprise, and those of our people who are building or contemplate building should patronize it and thereby encourage home industries so as to keep up the development of this country and keep oar money at home. Remarkable bat True. Under the above caption, the Newberry Herald of last week contained the follow? ing: The Anderson Intklliokkckb tells of a lady who is still using the same pair of hair pains that she purchased before she was married, and she has been married long enoogh to have a daughter grown up. The Edgdield Chronicle says that there is living in that County a lady who has a set of knives and forks, together with a set of caps and saucers, that she has been nsiug over thirty years. As a set off to this we snow a lady in Fairfield County, who is so very careful with her household things that she has the same cups, cancers, plates, knives and forks that she has used for over thirty years. She has also a tin foot tab that is as good as new, although it is as old as the other articles. What is the most remarka-| ble of all is that her bonnet claims the same distinguished age, and looks to-day as nice as one of the last Fall bonnets, its shape and the character of its ribbons being changed once in a while. We need only further say that this remarkable lady is one of the best housekeepers, and the most lov? able woman next to one in our own house? hold that we have ever known. The Fairfield lady can "take the cake," brother Herald. Any woman who can wear the same bonnet for thirty years de? serves a monument at her death similar to the one being built at Washington City to the memory of George Washington.

The Postmaster-General has issued an or ! der changing the rate of postage on a num ber of articles that have heretofore been rated as third class or printed matter, pay ing postage at the rate of one cent for every two ounces. Under this order these arti cles will hereafter be classified as merchan dise or fourth class matter, upon which the postage is one cent per ounce. The follow? ing is the text of the order: "The charac? ter of a paperas an article of merchandise, within the meaning of the postal laws, is not necessarily changed by the printing or ?tamping thereon of words, letters, charac? ters, figures, images, or of any combination thereof. Labels, patterns, photographs, playing cards, address tags, letter heads, envelopes and other matters of the same general character, the printing upon which is not designed to amuse, cultivate the mind or taste or impart general informa? tion, are mere articles of merchandise and should be rated as fourth class matter."
