Sloan who was in our office on Monday brrougbt with him a r reliu of war times. It is not valuable in itself but the associations connected with it give it a value it would not otherwise have.- It is nothing more t than a steel fork with three prongs, but it is a good one, though it has seen constant use for nearly thirty years. At the second battle of Cold Harbor, in 1864, Mr. Sloan captured this fork from a member of Company I, of a Michigan Regiment. Mr. Sloan says the name of the regiment was on the fork when it came into his possession but in-a use of thirty years it has worn offand he does not remember the name. Soon after the capture of the fork Mr. Sloan and the fork were both in the custody of the Union army, and on their way to-prison, at Point Lookout, where they remained constant com panions until the 19th of June, 1865, when, upon taking the oath of alle giance, the'y were discharged and came homewards. Mr. Sloan did not say whether or not the fork also took the oath, but it is presumed it did not as it - was already a Union fork. At any rate the two came home together and have since gone through the ups and downs of life together, and now he brings this fork to us, and we intend to turn it over to President Holland, of Newberry College, to be placed in the Museum of the College as a relic. of war times.

We went to tha 3ne given at Mr. J. H. Kibler's lasi Friday night. This was one of the so lled socials, but it happened to ge mixed up with a little of the balance ,o-your-partners-and-promenade-all. . bost of young people were present anc miot a few older ones. In short, thi rowd was large and well-behaved anc verybody present seemed to enjo3 themselves to their fullest capacity The amusement broke up about 1: 'clock with a great big old-time cakc walk. When the gun was fired the tick was found in the hands of Mr. A LFellers and Miss Bessie Enlow. The ucky couple was quite liberal and livided the spoils among the crowd. We have often heard of abundance ol 1hristmas chicken and turkey, but wE ever, saw as much on one pile as we ound in our chicken house on Tuesdaa norning before Christmas. A mink oa some other kind of a notorious animal >f a voracious nature crawled into om hicken house and took the lives o' wenty-two chickens the previouw iight. Not being satisfied, it returned >n Friday night following and killed ;wo more chickens. With a visit pre 7ious to the two mentioned, it makes s leerease of twenty-six in our chicker rop during the past few weeks. Honor to whom honor is due. Th1 s what the legislators did when the3 elected Hon. J. A. Sligh as one of the -ailroad commissioners. It is not onl5 mn honor to Mr. Sligh and his man. riends that he was favored with the position. But it is quite fortunate for tht railroad capitalists, for while Mr. Sligt a a staunch reformer, he always goe icording to his own convictions anc udgment regardless of factional lines So we consider that the railroad capi alist is fortunate in having Mr. Sligi n the board, and we can assure then ,hat their interests are perfectly safe sc ar as he is concerned. I will say to all the readers of The Rerald and News and the Press anc Reporter, that they need not be sur prised if they see a letter of the same ,ype, as I am regular correspondent o: he Press and Reporter, and I will alse write aletteroccasionally to The .Herali wd News. Well, we have been writing, talking mud voting, and passing our views gen ~rally upon the liquor traffic for a con iiderable while, and it seems to be i axed -fact that we have at last got somi kind of a liquor law, whether it meeti the approbation of the majority of oul ,ld Palmetto State or not. Our law makers had pledged themselves to theia ~onstituents that if a majority of thi people voted for Prohibition, the: would do all in their power to pass i prohibition law, and hence they aidn' seem satisfied to leave thecapital with out passing some kind of a liquor bill Whether or not the dipnsary law wil nswer the desires of te people in th4 ay of Prohibition is a question uin aswered. It seems to me that wher the liquor traffic is placed in the hand: of the State, to. be sold only by ap pointed officers, it is placing a grea :eal of responsibility upont a very fe's people. Tbe word dispensary means place for dispensing medicines, and i: iquor is only to be dispensed withir the medical line, why not place thi whole thing in the hands of the drug ists. But it is now the law, and wi ay just as well get ready to meet it [f the bill proves not to be the thini that the people want in the way of Pro bibition, it will be an easy matter fol the next Legislature to repeal this nevi aw and substitute some better in iti place. In conclusion, r,. happy and prosper yus New Year is the sincere wisn of onii md all and of Eli; may unity and lov iound in the hearts of each one of us throughout this new year. w. January 2, 1893.
