' There is a fair attendance of teachers, the exercises have been very bteresting and should be attended by rery teacher in the county. We regret that we have been unable -toattend. .rof. Morrison has delivered two Ieetures, School Tactics and Penman ship. To-day he will take up the sub -etoflocal history and it is a very important one. Too little attention is often given to this subject. Pupils are taught the histories of other countries and States and very often know very little of local history. The history of South Carolina and of the county is not as thoroughly taught, possibly, as it deserves to be. Miss Bonham has given lessons in Primr Reading, Calisthenics and -Language. There was a good attendance at the sessions yesterday. The institute we hope will prove of much benefit to the teachers. -address will be delivered this nesday) evening in the Opera qe by Hon. J. S.

The othe: faction clainis that there are some and it is said a list of some seven names o white nen has beeii tiled in Washing ton who are claimed as Republicans Two of these are applicants for post miaster here, and the faction tha oppo. es Whitmire claims that if eithe is appointed that it will divide thi Demociacy in the county. It is ti: state of attairs that Whitimire has gonc on to straigh ten out. A nass-neeting of the G. 0. P. wa: held here on Tuesday an account o which is published elsewhere. Whit mire claims to have his bond all fixed and he feels that if he can get these white Republicans out of the way h( will have clear sailing. The two white men who are apply iig as Republicans for the office are Robert Lfoornan and J. S. Russell. Sam Chappell, the chairman of th< inti-Whitmire faction has been in Washington for some ten days, some ay in the interest of Moorman, others ay in the interest of Russell. The Herald and News could not get to see Dir. Moorman yesterday, but called tc see Mr. Russell He said he had written to Mr. Wana aaker some time ago making an infor, aal application for the postoffice in which he stated that he had been a Republican, and always believed in the principles of that party, and had voted it upto 1876, though he had always been xonservative in his views, but that he was opposed to negro rule. Since 1876 he has been voting the Democratic ticket. He does not know whether Dhappell is in Washington in his inter Vst or not. This is an important office and as-we have said before, Mr. Wanamaker as a business man should see to it that we have a deccnt white postmaster, and mne that is competent to discharge the luties of the office acceptably to the business men 'of the-town. We do not want a negro postmaster, s.nd Mr. Wanamaker need not worry himself about dividing the Democracy in this county, for it will always stand solid for good and honest government. Personals.

Berry Neely was elected chairman an< Z. W. McMorries secretary. A committeo on resolutions, appointe< by the chairman, reported a set of reslou tions w.hich endorsed Harrison and hi appointments-especially C. W. Whit mire for the Newberry postoflice. Th meeting was called, it seems, to indors Whitmire. The preamble to the resolutions abound in a laudation of Harrison and the g. o. F with the following tail for the kite: Resolved, 1. That we most respectfully urg his excellency President Harrison to con tinue the appointment of Chas. W. Whil mire to she Postmaster, our first and oni; choice, and most heartily endorse him as bt ing eminently itted for the position. :.nd. That we unreservedly condemn th false accusations that there is no respect. bility or intelligeneeconnected with the pet tion of Whitmire, a e examinationof whic. will prove the libellous assertion. 3.

He alluded to the Saviour strong denunciation of phariseeismu, sel righteousness, hypocrisy, etc., and< his gracious sp)irit of forgiveness of si to the erring yet penitenit one. In illui trating and emphasizing the spirit c self-sacrifice, so essential to an ennoble Christian character, he cited the hero] conduct of Calvin Crozier at the New berry depot, one night in June, 1864 who, in defending tw 'fo th brutal intrusi Ijegro soldiery, los his life ected these men front tlb are they had no business.

Miss Stevie Bowers is visiting in Newberry. Misses Lillian Luther, Minnie Mose ley and Carrie DeWalt, in company e with Rev. J. C. Boyd and H. C. Mose - ley, are attending the commencement exercises of Due West College. About sixty tickets were sold here to parties going to commencement at - Newberry College last week. More went by private conveyance than by rail. This was a good showing for our -place. -A most glorious rain fell here last SMonday night and Tuesday morning. -Cotton and corn are growing rapidly. SLast Monday Sherman Grimn, (col Sored), who was "jumping" his bond for appearance at Court at Newberry, was .arrested here by an order from Solicitor Schumpert, and conveyed back to Newberry and safely lodged in - jail. t Garden vegetables are quite plenti e ful, and there is a "surplus" of all kinds r of fruit except apples. These are not e plentiful. SBill Arp says "every church has two -pulpits, one in front for the preacher e where God is worshiped, and one in -the rear of the church for the devil, eand it often looks like the devil has the t biggest congregation."' William has t got this down about right, and if he were to attend night services generally, he would almost invariably find that the devil is having the greatest audi e ence, and they paying right good at~ tention to him, too. We know of a minister who not long since left his usual place im front and gwent to the rear where it seemed that the devil was receiving special atten tion. The minister quietly took his sseat near some young nmpn and sat there without saying a word for several minutes. He then re'urnedl to the Spulpit as quietly as he came. I tell you there was a great calm in that chureb Sduring the remainder of the service, and there was some very small feeling c young men in those regions. -Again the grim and invincible mon , ster death has been in our midst, and e has removed another of Prosperity's t old land marks fromi the scone of ac e tion.

On last Satuiday I \'isited the Mt. Tabor section and, remembering that the Rev. J. A. Sligh would compete fox the $1,000 prize offered by the State AgriculturalDepartment, for the largest yield of corn per acre, I availed my self of the opportunity to visit his hos pitable home and see the patch. The acre selected is ordinary sandy-loam branch bottom land, but heavily manured and subsoiled to the depth o a foot. Previous to planting, on the 22nd May, (the weather being dry) the land was thoroughly irrigated, bring ing the corn up immediately. The quality and quantity of the fertilizei we withhold for the present. The cort is only a month and a few days old and averages two and a half feet high. The rows are two and a half feet wide and the stalks from eight to twelve inches in the drill. All preparations are made to irrigate the land if necssary durina the summer. Further particula'rs wil' be given later. Sunday morning we went to Mt Tabor church. We heard the recitatior of the lessons. This must be the larges1 Sunday-school in the county.

The cool North-east wind Sunda; morning brought the long-desired rail and now we are hopeful. Up to thi time we have not had rain enough t stop the plows a single day since th crops were planted. Things looked ver; gloomy with some of us farmers, bu we have never ceased to push farr: work, and the crops as a general thin; are well worked. About one-third a the cotton crop) is late. A good rain o: theith in stanit brought up late cottor Wihfavorable seasons from now o: the crops, though small, may turn ou much better than we may expect. Th wheat crop turned out better than las yea'r. I hope by the next writing t be rid of the blues anid able to give better report of the crops.
