Thirty-eight schools were represented, against twenty-five last year. There were about a hundred-del egates present. The following officers were elected: Dr. G. W. Holland, pres ident; Rev. J. C. Boyd, 1st vice-presi dent; Maj. Jacob Epting, 2nd vice-presi dent; G. G. Sale, secretary; D. B. Wheeler, treasurer; T. S. Moorman, G. B. Cromer, C. F. Boyd, H. S. Boozer, John S. Car.wile, executive committee. The discussions were free, full and interesting, the audiences large and at tentive. The convention was enter tained with the utmost hospitality, and the most hearty cordiality by the Colony community. New Chapel Church was fixed upon for the next meeting, which the execu tive committee was instructed to set for some time in July, 1888. Mr. D. B. Wheeler, after some remarks upon the growing observance of our National Thanksgivinig day, and the duty of a general r,Dservance of it, offered the fol lowing resolution, which was unani mously adopted: Resolred, T hat this c mnvention recom mends that all the people of this county meet at their respectivei places of wor ship, and observe by appropriate reli gious services, the National Thanksgiv ing Day. ______ The Rafn Aga'u. There was a very hard rain here on last Sunday morning, and the lightning and thunder were very heavy. Light oning struck in several places but the damage was slight Mr. D. W. T. Kib ler's stable was strock about the centre of the roof and shivered some of. the tim bers of the roof and building, but with very slight damage. A negro house on college hill in which William Robertson lives was struck about the chimney. The mantel piece was shivered and some things on it injured, but his wife and another persen who were ini the rear of the building were uninjured. A pine tree on Mr. J. C. Wilson's place *was also struck. It may have struck in other places also. The damage by the rain and wet weather, in our opinion, has been com paratively small in this county. There has been some damage. Too much rain f.or cotton, and in some low places the corn has been washed away and drowned. Saluda River was slightly out of banks on last Friday, and again on Tuesday, and in some places was over some bot tom corn, and no doubt injured it to some extent. Broad River, we hear, has been more swollen p->ssibly, and as a consequence has done some damage. If nothing comes from now~ on to injure or dest.roy the crops there v0 1 be a fine ..rvest. Thiet.a was more corn ph:mted this year than usual, and it is all fiaie, and it is now made if nothing p)revents its being gathered. Up land and bot tom land corn all looks line. Tuesday the weather cleared eiT beau. tifully. The damage from the rain and high water in some places has bee-n to -rible. In the western portion of Edgefield and along the Savannah the loss is heavy. and below Colum"'ia there has been con siderable damage. It is estimatedl that the penitentiary farm alone has lost 3C0 bales of cot on on i-s farm froem the higb wat er. Secure the shadow ere the substaince fade.-Sake:peare.

About $1,000 was carried over, there being no bidder. The HERALD AND NEWS is under ol. ligations to Mrs. W. T. Jackson for a nice lot of excellent grapes for which we return thanks. The "boys" enjoyed them. Capt. M. L. Donaldson, of Greenville, has accepted the invitation to deliver an address at the Newberiy County Far mer's Association on the first Monday in September. From a private letter received from Col. J. N, Lipscomb by a citizen here, we learn that he is busy at work, is in charge of 20 divisions and has under him 570 employees. Reason Jackson, colored, was bound over to the sessions court by Justice Blease on Tuesday, charged with shoot ing his wife last Janua 7y. He was not captured until last Saturday. The farmers along Broad River in this county have lost almost their entire crop of corn by the overflow last week. The river lacked about five feet of being as high as the freshet of May, 18G. Mr. T. F. Tarrant will open a mil liner% store in the store now occupied by Mr. R. D. Smith, about the middle of September. Mr. Smith will move into the store lately used by Mr. B. H. Cline. Messrs. Buford & Riser will give their barbeene and tournament at Liberty Hall next Friday; 19th. There will be several prizes given away and a large crowd and a nice time may be expected.

The Future Progress Society will have a celebration at Cedar Grove on Friday, August 26th. Addresses will be delivered by M. A. Carlisle, Esq., and Rev. B. H. Wimn.e, and possibly several others. Rev. W. M1. Grier. D. D., of Due West, preached in the A. R. P. church on last Saturday night and Sunday morning. On Sunday night he preached at the union service in the Lutheran church. Dr. Grier is an able preacher. The Newberry Rifles will be inspected some time soon by G2n. Bonham. The commissioned officers are engaged in pre parinig a constitution and by-laws for the government of the company. We hope the boys will stick together and be ready for inspection. Rev. W. M1. Gr'er, D. D., requests us to state that he will not be able to fill his appointment at King Creek church on next Saturday and Sabbath on ac count of sickness in his family, and that he will be there and preach for the con gregation on the fourth Saturday and Sabbath of this month. Th'le negro boy charged with the felon ious assault on Mr. S. L. Morris' six year-old little girl. was comnmitted to jail last Thursday. There was some rumor of lynching him but we have heard of nothing definite in that direc tion and we suppose the law will be per mitted to take its course. If suitable arrangements and con veniences were prepared in rear oi the court house, for the use of the band. open air concerts could be furnished the city two or three times a week. It would be a good idea. The band has made such a proposition to the council, and we hope it will be done. It is suggested by our Mollohon cor respondent that the time of holding the next Farmer's County Club be changed from t' e first Monday in September to the 25:h day of August in order to secure the presence of some distinguished speakers who,could not be here in Sep tember. Read his article and see his reasons. Mr. G. W. Pearson's hous:: was entered on Tuesday night of last week and his pantry completely cleared of provisions. Some spoons, forks, and dishes wvere also taken. A window was, raised and the rarties entered and de parted without detection. They also took eleven chickenis. No clue as yet has been obtained as to the guilty parties. Giles Hiugg'mns alias Hutchminson has been arrested and lodged in jail and has confessed to breaking in the depot at Chappells last week and sat's that he was assisted by one Mouzon Singleton who has not yet been captured. Hutchinson says lhe got the pistol and $3 in money, and that Singleton got the balance. There is another warrant in M1r. Blease's office for Giles Hiutchinson charging him with stealing an overcoat from the freight cab last Jatnuary. Those who know say~ this fellow is the same one. Every ol man, young man, woman or child who wants a good laugh should read "Ho0w -Private Geo. W. kFeck put down the rebellion." It beats the Bad Boy. For sale at HUNT'S BOOK STORE. Personal.

Postponed until after the heated term -the reading circle. Good idea. Who'll take in the grand tourname.it and barbecue at N. F. Johnston's on Friday, the 19th instant? Several new organs have been sold here in the past week or two 'uy Mr. Ipark. They were bought by those of our progressive citizens who have a pre ponderance of girli. There's music in the air. Amos Keeter is in the village. [Not original so far as Amos Keeter is con cerned]. "There's a lively little creeter which is known as Amos Keeter-ycu think you're sure to lam it, and against the wall you jam it, but you"l sadly mutter - it, as it skips." Last Sunday morning during the very heavy thunder and rain storm the light ning split a telegraph pole in front of our residence and one near the colored church. Lightning struck several trees also around andl about the village. The big solitary old dead pine in Mr. J. C. Wilson's field was struck and largy pieces of the timber flew in every direc tion, leaving the body of the tree on tire. One of our most sensible citizens saye a good appetite is a good sign of a good constitution. Then if the size of a fel low has anything to do with it, some of us would have powerful consttutions a regular "Mose" appetite. ([f you don't know what a "Mose appetite" is, get Dr. Welch to tell you, and if you do not laugh you surely can't have any of that sort of music in your soul). There are several tremendous constitutions at Helena. "No doubt of that." And this fact reminds us that they are like the old Romans who "nursed their palates to such an extent that the 'second hun ger' was cultivated as a science." Al though they m,~y not be as enthusiastic gastronomers as was the French judge who on one occasion said to an astrono mer, "I look upon -the invention of a new dish as a far more interesting event than the discovery of a new star," nor as prodigal as old Heliogabalus (you re member him) who had his peas sprinkled with grains of gold, his. rice mixed with pearls and his beans with amber, they no doubt would occasionally enjoy the sixteen elaboratc courses of the tables of the monks of Canterbury, and indulge in the luxurious Roman bill of fare. We are glad that a good appetite is a sign of a good constitution. "No doubt of that." BURR JoYCE. News and Courier, Columbia Re'g'ster,. Harper's Magazine and Century. at T. M!. C. A. Rooms FREE.

Mrs. Caroline Boozer of Newberry has been visiting in town for the last week. Mr. A. M. Lester has been elected town clerk rice F. L. Schnmpert re signed. Mr. K. D. Lake and family have moved into their new residence on Main street. We welcome them as neighbors and citi zens. Mrs. H. N. Crosson, of Long Lane, who has been sick for some time at Mr. A. P. Dominick's, we are glad to say is convalescing. Mrs. Jas. J. Mobley, Messrs. Stanford and Johnnie Bland of Johnston are spending several days with their sisters, Mrs. J. E. Schumpert and Miss Emma Bland. The town council has sunk one cistern near the centre of the public square, and others will be sunk in time. The fire ar rangements cannot be peifected too soon -a fire may occur at any time. Pink Jones, the would-be rapist, was captured last. Thursday by E. K. Beden baugh on the plantation of Dr. John Thompson, and safely lodged in jail. Now let the law have its proper course. Messrs. D. .C. Boland & Bro. have their g'n house framed and "raised." Messrs. Wheeler and Moseley are also erecting one on the site of the burned one. This will give us four steam gins inside the corporate limits of town. These men certainly think the cotton crop is not all drowned, and I guess they are right. Mr. Fred L. Schumpert, of the firm of Schumpert & Bro., leaves to-day for Mar?n, Texas. We are indeed sorry to lose our worthy young men, but when our loss is their gain we should cheer fully submit. We have long since been satisfied that young men can make more money by going West than they can by remaining here. Marlin can boast of quite a little colony of New berrians of a high standing of intelligence and moral ity. The faces of the farmers in the coun try do not beam so brightly as they did two weeks ago. The incessant rains have thrown a da; pness over their coun tenances. That the cotton crop is in jured some, does not admit of a doubt, but it is impossible for us to even ap proximate a percentage of damage at this time. The farmers themselves dif fer so widely in their estimates that a conclusion cannot be safely reached. Their opinions of the damage range from ten to fifty per cent. In conse quence of the continuous rains, rust has made its appearance in some places. Everywhere the weed has a surplus growth without the corresponding fruit. In other places the lower holls are rot ting. The weather has now cleared away beautifully, and should it continue favorable to the plant during this month there yet may be a good crop. We still hope for the rest. Much destruction to the young corn has occurred along the banks of the Saluda and other low lands, both by drowning and overflowing. In some instances where the water was, and is still over the corn, it is entirely ruined. The C. & G. Railroad Company have given usani elegant passengerand freight depot here, and for which we are thank ful, but as matters now stand, the indi cations are that we are not to have a cotton platform. The company put the material down for building the platform but are now hauFng it away..- The plat form was to have been built on the ground, upon which stand three ware houses belonging to citizens of this place. When these warehouses were erected, the parties building and the company entered into a written con tract, one of the provisions of wvhich was, that the party or parties so build ing, was to remove the house or houses at the ir.stance of the company, when said company so desired or requested. The company requested or ordered the warehouses moved away by July 1st. The parties owning the building asked the company where to move them. The company feels under no obligition to respond, and we feel satisfied that they niill not name any place which to move them, they not caring particularly where they are moved. We suppose that the company does not care a great deal whether the platform is buUt or rnot, as they have a sufficiency of zoom on their freight platform from which to load as fast as cotton can be weighed, marked and delivered there, but it will certainly be a great inconvenience to the public at large, and especially to the buyer and seller. We do hope the matter w1ll be satisfactorily arranged, and that the platform will he built right speedily. We will soon need it. TUBIE. Go to J. W. Chapman's for School Books. 3-16-ti. EXCELSIOR NOTES. -Mr. J. N. Wheat, of Pro-perity, spent Saturday night in this community. Cook Bros. had the misfortune to lose about 10,000 brick by the recent rains. Mrs. Satmuel L Sheely has been suff' ering withm a case of "roscola" but glad to learn is again convalescing. We notice some of our farmers have made a break in the fodder field this week. This community was visited with an other very hard rain on last Sabbath. Indleed dust has now become a thing of the past. Miss Lizzie Werts, of the Jolly Street section, we are sorry to learn, is lying very low with a case of typ)hoid fever. An infant child of Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Miller, of the Mt. Pilgrim section died, Thursday, also a little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Kempson died on Friday last. The bereaved families have the sincere -sympathies of this entire com munity. Mr. J. C. Counts, overseer on the road leading from the Excel-ior academy tc Mr. J. A. Rikard's residence, called out his hands last week arid put the road in a very good condition. The bridges had got badly out of order.by the recent rains. While at Prosperity Saturday, we were glad to see that preparations are being made for their fire engine'. A cistern ih being dug in front of IX heeler & Moce. ley's establishment to furnish the water We wish this new enterprise much sue. cess. We regret very much that we coulh not attend the Sunday School convn tion held at Colony Church on Thursday and Friday last. We learn the meeting was largely attended and the reports from various sehools very interesting. Two of the "Jim Crows" in this section went out courting Saturday night and we guess made pretty good headway as each one returned in the wee late hour of 1 the night with a large bouquet pinned to either side of their coats and carrying N a kind of triangular smile on their faces. Well boys, nothing like enjoying life. '] SIGMA. '1 For the Herald and News. 1 I H IS I LENCE WOULD H 4 VE BEEN BETTER. It is deeply to be deplored that dhe Hon. Jefferson Davis should have spoken on the negative side of the vital qrues- ( tion of prohibition. Not that we would be understood as denying to Mr. Davis, ' or to any other m:i, the right of private I judgment or the ex ,ression of a convie tion. Yet there are times when it is the part of wisdom to be silent-when "si- , lence" is indeed "golden." And that was the time when good taste, tact and judgment should have dictated silence A to Mr. Davis, if he could not honestly espouse the cause of temperance. The s position he once occupied as a leader T should have kept him from "snap" judg ment. For he must know that, for good or evil, he has a large following. There are multitudes who do not think, but will follow a leader; and if a blind leader, then they follow to the death. The love of strong drink i., without doubt, the national sin, for it is the '1 fruitful parent of every other evil notably among which are Sabbath B breaking and a loose rein to the pas- A sions. The enlightened student of mental IN science and the impartial historian who shall write for truth as well as for h,story, however much they may admire Mr. Da vis for his other good qualities, will de clare that he was without the prescience of the statesman, and possessed of very D strong prejudices. It is a pity that the ty closing hours of his career should be at clouded. The cause %hieh the venerable ex- I, president was solicited to espouse is the cause of virtue and of manhood. It has arrayed on its side, with but compara tively few exceptions. either in actual h< enrollment or sympathy, all the ladies 31 of the land-not simply of the late confederacy over which he once pre- 31 sided, and whose banner is furled, but o from Maine to Texas and from shore to Sl shore. fr It would have been a glowing t'bute to his "virtue and valor" had he raised his shield in defence of the (lear women of his common country, who are striving to save the very "flower and loveliness" Ai of the land from a conflict far more ter- Br rific than that of an "army with ban- Bc ners." *** BE Ea Ca Co BLOOD POISON. Ca Three years ago I contracted a blood Da poison. I applied to a physician at once and his treatment came near killing me. Ed I employed an old physician and then Fo went to Ky. I then went to Hot Springs and remained two months, but nothing seemed to cure me permanently, al- sa though temporary relief was given me. My condition grew wo-'se and I applied T to a noted quack, but I did not improve. I then used a preparation which -was prescribed "gratis," but it contained too much alcohol and aggravated my suffer- ha ings. I then placed myself under the wi treatment of a noted Nashville physi- en cian and for a time was benetitted, but ye by fall I returned home a ruined man en physically and financially, with but lit- of tIe.prospects of ever getting well. My ye money being exhausted, 1 did not know su what to do- In May, 18S3, my mother ta persuaded me to get a bottle of B. B. B. is (made in Atlanta) and I did so to gratify al: her, but to my utt: r astonishment I had ro not finished the fira~ bottle before every co ulcer had been he.ded. $1 To the present time I have used five s bottles and have received more benefit Ss than from all the rest cornbined; and I n< am satisfied that B.

Three years of that time I es unable to work. Unfortunately, rly in my affliction, my breath became r.y ofiensive. For seven years I could iell nothing, and I had no taste. How 'ensive my breath was aill those seven ars. I need not tell. What were my fierings of mind at not being able to ste or smell anything, can be easily agined. I was treated by physicians during that time, and I tried nume LIs medicines advertised. I bought one urse of treatment I saw advertised for 8 that was rnot worth five cents. Last ring a year ago a pamphlet from the rift Specific Company, came under my tice, and I determined to try the Spe Ic. Foui teen small bottles completely red me that spring and summer. orked in the crop for the first time in ur years, and I have been working ~ht along s'nce without having the ghtest return of catarrh. The wonder 1 cure of me has been the means of inging S. S. S. to the successful notice many neighbors. I regard it as a won rful blood purifier, and a certain erre caMrrh when given a fair trial.
