The death of General Sherman recalls to mem.-ory how Newberry escaped de struction at the hands of his troops. A portion of Sherman's army-Kilpat rick's cavalry-made a detour through the Fork, for the purpose of destroying Newberry, the railroad and the Helena Workshops. They approached within thirteen or fourteen milesof the town, but were toiled by the tale of an old darkit sent to meet them. They were told that Newberry liter ally swarmed with Confederate sol diers. Gen. Cheatham was here with several thousand men, not enough to have offered resistance had they come. Capt. Edward Kingsnore and Messrs. Mike Bowers and Luther Riser, and perhaps others, went out as scouts and narrowly escaped with their lives, be ing shot at; the enemy having turned about to cross the Enoree did not pursue Bowers and Riser very far, but Kingsmore was captured, having al lowed his horse to escape him. He was taken by Sherman's army into North Carolina, but was re-captured by John stone's army and returned home, giv. ing an account of the rough treatment be had received from the enemy. When the garrison was stationed in the college building in the summer of IS65 the writer often heard the soldiers remark that a fine prize bad escaped their hands when they did not get to ew berry before the war closed.

This settles a long vexed case though all the partles are not happi and serene. I do not desire to write a dissertation on dogs for the quality and quantit3 of canines on these coasts are entirel3 too numerous, but I would like to set a certain policeman in the town 0 Ntwberry with whom I am well1 a(. quainted, make at least one nocturnal visit to this place, armed and equipped according to the emergency. If hE will come thus prepared, I will throw in a double barrel shot gun, an extra vial of strychnine and a week's board and lodging. On Monday night after supper I bought a fine magnolia harm, and placed it where the hams belong, without the material knowledge of the maternal proprietor of this establish ment. The next morning I was in structed to go and purchase a hani. "No, madam," I replied. "Well, what are we going to have for breakfast?" was the rejoinder. "Beefsteak, chicken and ham," I remarked to her inquisi tive nature. "But," says she, with some warmth, "there is no ham here." "Yes, my dear," I replied, "I bought one last night after you left the kitchen. Look on the table near you." "No ham here," quoth the maternal proprietor. I looked, and lo and behold, the place that the ham had lain knew that ham no more. The dogs had been there! The door had not been securely fast ened, and the dogs had got in and curried away the coveted ham. I looked on in silence. I could find no words to do justice to the case, except that "dog gone with the ham." A search of the premises revealed no trace of said ham. "Dog gone witb the ham." There was more dogs than one, for one fellow had got his head fast in a lard jar, and had dragged that jar some distance. I wish that jar had contracted just a little around that dog's neck, or that the dog's head had expanded some, any way just to have kept that dog's head wedged in that jar until morning, when that dog and jar would have both been dispensed with. I have almost sworn vengeance against all dogs that visit this estab lishment. I am not running the busi ness of furnishing hams to such tran sient boarders. They neither register nor pay their bills. I had to go and wake up a certain clerk and buy an other magnolia before breakfast could proceed. You can bet my bigger half (she is a heap larger than I) gave me a good lecture for not hanging that ham to a large nail she had for tbe purpose. I tell you when I see a dog around these premises now I am not happy and serenie. I am in much trouble about these dogs. "And the dog didn't bark." YUBE MARRIED. February 12, 1891, by Rev. .J. E.

BaIung Powder rELY PURE (7 TEACHERS' COLUMN. t - r Teachers' Association. s About twenty of our teachers met at the Graded ichool building last Satur dy. The association was called tc order byv the School Commissioner. Prof Laird, the president of the associ atLion having lit the county, Prof. J. F. Brown was elected preJdent, Miss IFanie Baxter was chosen secretary in place of Nliss Alice Cozby, resigned. I The elections over, the progranme for the day was taken up. Miss Mallie Wheeler, with a chss of about twenty from the third grade of the New berry t schools, gave the teachers an interest ing lesoi in primary English. The exercise was Lhorougl!, instructive, ind entirely practical. A gelr_ral dis cussion of the (iestion showed that I English is not taught as it should be in our schools. The pupils begin the 'study of technical grammar too early. TIhe course of study prepared by a ( coinittee, selected fOr the purpose, was taken up and pretty well discussed. The course, as mapped out, requires eight years. Some were of the opinioi that it was not far enough advanced, but should include more of the higher branches, and not so much time be given to primary and intermediate work. The association, however, adopt ed the course reported by the coimit tee, without any change. The school district plan was not dis cussed, as the school trustees of the county were not present. This is a cause of regret to the association as the question is one of great importance to W. K. Sligh were unanimously en dorsed for appointment as members of the County Board of Examiners. The State Superintendent of Education, perhaps will yield to the wishes of the association this time. The State Teachers' Association hav ing decided to establish a place of re sort for teachers during the summer months, and to erect a building where the teachers of the State can meet to gether. Prof. Brown called on the members present to aid in the enter prise. Several responded, and others, when they see the benefits to be de rived from the work, will fall in. Any teacher, or other person, interested in the public schools has the privilege of becoming a s:o.kholder. For any in formation in regard to the matter, teachers can apply to Prof. Brown. It was decided to hold the next meeting of the association at Prosperity. A full attendance is desired. We hope that the teachers in and around New herry will go down to Prosperity to meet the teachers of that section. Two school districts were established in Newberry County in 1888. These districts are nearly square and contain something over sixteen square miles each. This year about $300 was apportioned to each of these districts from the two wills tax, besides this the poll tax was added to the fund. In one district an extra tax was raised. At twen.y-five dollars per month, the amount given to first grade teach ers in many of our townships, there would be enough to run the schools over six months. The people of the county should think of this, and decide to make the change. An act was passed at the last session of the General Assembly which will enable the treasurer to collect a larger poll tax than ever before. Act 470, Sec. 2291, reads: "At the expiration of the time pre scribed by law to receive returns, each county Auditor shall make out and forward to the Board of Trustees of each Scheol D)istrict within his county a correct list of the polls returned from their respective districts. The school trustees shall examine carefully said list and report to the Auditor as soon as p: a:ticable the names of all persons who shall have failed or neglected to make returns, and it shall be the duty of the Auditor to enter upon the books the names of all persons tIhus reported to him by boards of school trustees." The act is a good one and should be carried out. There are a great many who do not pay their poil tax, and as the polls are held for the townships in which they are collected, it would be well for trustees to attend to the matter carefully. T1hey are to look after the interests of the public schools, and should do all in their power to increase the school fund.
