The stockholders of the Darling ton Manufacturing Company met yesterday, Thursday, and all the old officers were re-elected. A dividend of 3i per cent, was declared, which, considering the stagnation in busi ness circles, shows admirable man agement The Herald returns thanks for an invitation to attend the laying of the corner-stone of tbe Winthron Normal and Industrial College of South Carolina at Rock Hill, May 12. The ceremonies will be very interest ing and we are sorry that it is out of our power to attend. There has been considerable com plaint on the part of farmers con cerning the ravages of the bud worms on the corn crop. These pests always seem to flourish best when the' nights are cool. Hot weather generally pnts a stop to their deprudations. The town and some parts of the county were visited by a pretty heavy wind and rain storii on Sunday afternoon. The Imaviest. p.iri. of Hie cloud was about four or live miles alaive the town, on Swift, Creek, Tbe rain was very much needed and come jnst at a critical time, when it wou'd serve to save the oat crop and bring up the late planted cotton. The Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad could not have done a (letter thing than it has in ap|ioiut- ing ex Judge Hudson as its g.uernl counsel. Nobody need indulge the hope that they can get ahead of tin- railroad in a law case, as long as J. H. Hudson is on hand, for he is veritably r mighty man of law. The salary is $2,000 per year. At the regular annual meeting of the stockholders of the People’s Bank, held on Monday, April 30, the following board of directors was elected: W. A. Csrrigan, John Siskron, C. S. McCullough, B. A.

We will take much pleasure in writing it up and will give a chromo to the best eater. The Herald has had an estimate made by several merchants in regard to the money that will go out of the county this year to pay for corn and meat, and they alll agree that it will be considerably over $100,000. Not a dollar of this money onght to go out of the county and would not bat for the mania, that seems te possess some of our formers, to make big crops of cotton. This is an oft told tale bnt tbe truth is never old and will bear constant repitition. . Death af ai lafaat. Mr. and Mrs. W. II. Lawrence lost their infant son, William Azella, on Friday afternoon.

I trial will come off at the Jane IwiDtfUwwnrV' A Bald Thief. In those delightful stories, os told by Vn de Remus, of the times when the animals had the gift of speech it was always Brer Rabbit that seem ed to have the knack of outwitting all the other beasts of the field ai d forest, and bis many escapades are familiar to every boy and girl in Ihc South,and possibly also to those of the whole country. All these boys and girls will learn wilh a pang of regret that, in some inexplicable way, Brer Rab> bit has lost some of his cunning and has been put to shame by some animal, which one is not known, but supposed to be Brer Coon, and has been deprived of a very yalliable piece of property, and what makes tbe loss worse is tbe fact that it was an heirloom in his family, and an article that figured in some of the most noted exploits of his gifted and distinguished ancestors. This piece of property, on which Brer Coon is supposed to have laid his sacriligeous hands, is nothing more nor less than the historic saddle that was used by one of the far off ancestors of Brer Rabbit when be rode np in triumph, mount ed on tbe back of Brer Wolf, to call on the young ladies and hitched that humiliated animal to the rack, jnst as be would have done with a horse. The feelings of Brer Rabbit are in describable, it being impossible to tell which feeling is uppermost rage at the loss of so valuable a relic, or mortification at the lam of his as cendency over the other animal* Of coarse they will exult, wilh fiendish over Brer Rabbit’s misfortune, but we sincerely trust that all-good Imys mid girls will exert themselves lo tbe utmost in the way of helping Birr Rabbit; to recover his property and of apprehending the thief. Brer Rabbit seems very much deject ed and will not even touch lus favor ite diet, early garden |>ea* | Anyone who wishes further-infor mation will call on the chief of ||N)lice, who can furnish an accurate description of the property and who is authorized to pay a Mutable re ward for its recovery and the appre hension of the thief. Old shoes made new at reduced * prices, by W, C, Young. A Baslness Change. Mr. J. D. Baird, a well-known dealer in furuiture, has disposed of a half-interest in his business to Mr. B. A.

C-, having been appointed general agent for North Carolinr of the Fidelity Life Inshranee Company, of Phila delphia, Pa. It is an appointment worthily bestowed as Mr. Baird is a good business man and well posted up In insurance matter* We regret to see him leave Darlington. .»■ ■■ Remttal of (he Ptotoflee. The pnstoffloe will be removed to- xiorrow-afternoon from its present quarters to the brick office across the square, on the comer of Orange and Mam street* This building is ad- miriihly m hi pled to the pur|MMe, hav ing plenty oi light and Mug far enough from any other buildings to be safe against lire.

The night mail, except iiii|Nirtiint. letters, will not be opened until the next day. The Best sf Friends. The editor’s best friend is the man or woman who giyes him items of new* There are people we know, however, who have snch a prejudice against telling a newspaiier man any thing that if they died they wouldn’t say anything about it. If yon know anything let us have it. If you have visitors from abroad, send us their names and residence* If you have made a successful financial spec ulation and have money In your pock et, give it to us—that is, the item; we don’t want any money. Newspapers run without money. If not conven ient to call drop ns a postal. Send us the news, and occasionally $ I for a year’s subscription to the paper, which amount wc will devote to char itable purpose* - ■ ■ Church Hews.

The Sonday-schoo! conference of the Methodist Church met at Wes ley Chapel on April 24, and contin ued in session two day* Rev. J. B. Wilson was elected president and Mr. A. J. A. Perritt secretary. The proceedings were of great interest and there was a full attendance of delegates. The opening sermon was preached by Rev. J. H. Thacker. Rev. J. E. Carlisle, Messrs. J. G. McCall, W. J. Parrott and H. H. Hast were the delegates from the church at Darlington. Rev.

In another column we have called attention to the address that is to be delivered. H* M*re Free Advert tel *g. When the postoffice is moved into its new quarters, Mr. Gandy intends to strictly enforce one of the regula tions of the postoffice department, which prohibits the placing of notices or advertisements, of any character whatever, either inside o” outside of the building. The regu lation is a good and just one and onght to enforced by every post master in the country. People nave no right to advertise at the expense of the government, or that of the r tmastor. as ho is sometimes made pay damages resulting from a rented building being defaced. The government itself uses the news- (wpers iu advertising for contracts and for the sale of articles seized fqr violation uf the tariff aud reve nue laws, and pays for them just as a private individual doe* If no otnei proof could be offered, this is sufficient to show that advertising in the newspapers is the best plan that has ever been devised to reach the ^ e. Of course it costs money to is, but the maq who is not wil ling to spend money in order to make money had letter sell ont to some body with more judgment and en terprise than be himself possesses. Some of our business men nave been using the postoffloe for free adver tising, but this will soon be a thing of the past and they will either have to use the columns of tbe news papers or keep the people in the dark as to their business. They Wait Haaes. The Russell Art Publishing Co„ of 028 Arch S*, Philadelphia, desire the names and address of a few peo ple in every town who are interested in works of art, r.nd to secure them they offer to send free, “Cupid Guides the Boat,” a superbly exe cuted water color picture, size 10x13 inches, suitable for framing, and sixteen other pictures about same size, in colors, to any one sending them at once the names aud address of ten persons (admirers of tine picture) together with six two-cent stamps to cover expense of mailing, etc. Tbe regular price of these pic tures is $1.00, but they can all be secured'free by any person forward ing the names and stamps promptly. Note.—The editor of this pajier has already received copies uf above pictures and consider them really “Gems of Art.” Factory Hcbe.

Mr. Jacob Freed has returned l:om the Northern market* There will be an interesting game of ball at the factory to-morrow afternoon.
