The next issue of The HenOtl will Ije n great improveraeut on any that have preceded it, and its contents hetter in every respect. We have very materially enlarged our outfit and will in future print the whole paper at home. Special attention will be given to the news fioni dif ferent parts of the County and several columns will be devoted to this pur pose alone. Our intention is to gLe the people of the town and County a good newspaper, and to this end we promise our most earnest efforts. The selection of Dr. Woodrow as President of the South Carolina puts at its head one of the best scholars and most noted scientists of the country. His election to Ibis im portant position will probably, how ever, be viewed with disfavor by some of the members of his own de nomination, especiidly those who have prefered charges of heterodoxy against him, and have him tried in the courts of the church. State to take up the Ocala platform, section by section and prove that, if enacted into laws, they will benefit the farmer or anyone else. There has, on the part of the politicians, 1 een plenty of assertion but mighty little logic, and wc want some of the editor* to take a baud in the discus sion., I Wh«t the people want is proof, not a Flxinging together of words,but something tangible, and sometbing that can give them the assurance of lasting benefit. Make the discus sion strictly impersonal; prove your case, and you will have accomplished something that its advocates, up to the present time, lure failed to do; shown the wisdow of this measure. This is a splendid opportunity for that brilliant but mistaken Journal, the Freeman, to say nothing of the Abbeville .Medium, The People’s Ad vocate and the other su L-treasury papers. The above is written not to pro voke a discussion, but simply because we want the views of our brother editors on the subject. If the meas ure can be shown to be beneficial, /he Herald will be one of i(s most earnest advocates. WOODS & WOODS, k Rut the funniest part-of all is that • Stokes’ speech as reported is incom parably more thoughtful and well worded than Butler’s. Butler is more of an orator—has u'better de livery from the stump Shan Stokes; but in ii tellectual ability mid schol arship Stokes leaves him out dfsigltt. —Sumter Freeman. Senator Butler has had many un kind and harsh things said abont him, but for utter absurdity the ■■■above from the Freeman is ahea 1 of anything we have ever seen. Gen. Butler, while unqnestienably wrong on the silver question, is n man of citltnF* »nd intellect, this being freely admitted by bis politi- ■cal Hpponents, on the floor of the senate chamber chamber, while Dr. Stokes rarely makes an address or writes an article wfthmtt betraying his gross ignorance nf some.public • questions that any man of average intelligence ought to be fumiK;«r with THE CIIESTEKFIKIiD MURDER CASE. Whatever may have been the Gov '-eruor’s motive in waiting to reprieve 1 these murderers until the prepara tions to hang them were completed, it is very certain that he acted in violation of the spirit of the Gonsti- • tutionj which provides tlmt the law must be executed in mercy. A great many people who arc guilty die protejMsug their innocence, and, as ■ might have l>eeii expected, fcfee Gev- v ernor’s experiment was a failure. Criminals of this character never repent the act, but the issue, and very little faith can be put in their . professions either of innocence or penitence. It is a rare thing for a jury to convict anyone of murder, and when they do, the moral effect of it is lost when the Governor pardons., - or commutes the sentence of the murderer. If there was any excuse for the Governor to interfere with the due process of law, it-haaiiot transpired, ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo We beg to announce to our friends and the public generally that we h'ave re ceived the largest and best selected s took o tock f S pring & pring & S ummer ummer cods oods Edwards, Normsnt & Company, oooooooooooooooo<M>'oooooooooooonooo Have Just Received 5,000 yards Figured Muslin at 21-2 ets.
