J. F. McMaster & Co. advertise a now stock of shirts, of different styles and at different prices. a McMaster & Iice advertise a new stock of dry goods, notions, boots, shoes and hardware. "Many voters" make a nomination for intendant and wardens of Winnsboro. The Constitutionalist of Augusta has been merged ip cthe QAronicle and Sentinel of that city. The new paper will be called the Chronicle and Constitutionalist.,. Trial Justices can furnish them, selves with the necesssry blanks by applying at the ofice of THE Nrwp AND HERALD. A full assortment of these blanks will be kept constantly on hand, or supplied.ti sho4 notice. Prices low, work good, aug satisfae tion guaranteed. The election of intend ant and wardens of the town of Winnsboro takes place on the first Monday in April, and it is time that the tax. payers were taking some steps towards placing a gQod ticket in the field. We suggest a public meeting for this purpose on Tuesday evening next, at the Town Hall. The town needs an additional num ber of cisterns in order that the usefulness of the fire depart ment may be extended Each year one or two new ones should be constructed, and in time the town would be safe without feeling" e: barrassed by the cost of improve ments. Newberry's $150,000 fire should prove a lesson. AColumbiatelegram.to the Charles.. ton Journal of Commerce, dated March 19, says : "Well founded reports say that one hundred extra negro constabulary are quartered in some fastness of the Statehouse, and that a large supply of ''previsw ions has been secretly conveyed there. Inspection fails to confirm this, but it may be true neverthe, less, as close inspection cannot be made." Governor Hampton gave thirty days reprieve a few days since in Aiken to a colored man who had killed a white man and wvas convict ed of murder by a colored jury and recommended to mercy. The man's lawyer claimed to have discovered some new testimony' 'that would acquit him, and Governor Hampton, in spite of the wishes of the whites, gave him the thirty days to investi gate the matter.. This is givigg equal rights to colored people. The colored persons should take notice. MUSIcAL EN4TERTAmuIENT.-The Carolina Singers will givet a musical entertainment, in connection with a temperance and educational -exhibi.. tion of the Mission School for Colored Children, at Thespian Hal on Friday evening the 23d inst. Tickets for reserved seats twenty five cents eacli to defray expenses. These Singers have won considera. ble reputation, already, and we doubt not their perfornance' to morrow evening will well ypya attendance. ,rpya CLOSING THE eoE.-Mr. JIames Q. Davis has received instructidns from General Hagood to close the tax-book on next Wednesday, ti 28th inst, Ther~e ar e)(eygfpregef but a few days in whiph thosp tax. payers who have not yet"i atmay snake their contyibgtlon ftode app port of the lawful government of the State. We would again urge , pfos all W119 ha~ve Mt yqtpaid to. do so, before tiae tbs'~~ 4 h tribution 'of1. Fairfield is already large, ald it only ieeds i small in crease to make it, in proportion, quite equal to that made by any other county in the State. Let the people see to it that when the final acidelnting shall be made, 46 will be, found to be- atnong the most liberal in her'mupport of the Consti tutional Government of the State, Hezekiah Sims and several other colored men have recently paid their Hampton ,conttibution.' Now is ' a good time for all the colored people to come orvaIr( d.jnp to- .o side. They had-iStteoeyav6' }Clam berlain before Hayes lets him drop. It will be much better for them to acknowledge Hampton. . They need not be Democrats to do this. Just as democrats in 1874 acknowledged that Chamberlain. defeated Greene, so Republicans now sacrifice no party principle by acknowledging, what they all must know, that Hampton defeated Ch myerlain in 1876. Chamberlain, Iy holding. out, is merely trying to cotntinuw stife between whites andblacks. Every one had better abandon him. BODY RECOVERED.-The body of Mr. Wawra, a young German tailor who mysteriously disappeare4 fron Columbia some days ag?, was ifound caught in the limb of a e " wbich projected from an island in the Congaree river, about :two ands' a half miles below the city. Tne body was rieich discomposed, and was disfigured 'to such an extent as to render identification almost im. possible, except by the clothing and the articles in .the pockets. The generally accepted theory 'of the suicide is that the deceased slew himself in consequence of the un favorable result of a love affair. Some of hie friends, howverj eem to believe that he Was foully dealt with. No marks were found on the body, beyond those which would result from its being bruised against the rocks and driftwood in the river. DuNN DUNNING.-The 2egister says tnat ex;Comptroller Durn, r cently sent a circular - to the agents of certain insurance companies with a view, cf course, to .collect some money. The circular is as follows : STA*k O1"SO TIrt CARat6IA, OFFrd-UF -OMPToLT ER -GENERAL: COL.UMnrA, March 1, 1877.
