The Democratic Party Of South Carolina,

The State Central Club makes the
close of the late canvass the occasion Of
brief address, and offers congratulations
upon the general result, which being a
gain of more than 10000 over the elec-
ton in April last, may be considered
more of a victory than defeat. The Ma
tional democracy also have cause for fc-
lieitation, for including the States voting
in 1868 and not in 1864, and the States
excluded from voting in 1868, and inclu-
ding also the number disfranchised, the
result shows that Seymour received a
majority of several hundred thousands
on the popular vote. The address urges
the importance of preserving the present
admirable organization, in the various
clubs, and recommends that features
looking to the subjects of immigration,
agriculture, manufactures and education,
be engrafted upon each club, to promote
the industries Of the State and the ad-
vance of popular Intelligence. In conclu-
sion, it says:
Fellow citizens, we address you in the
spirit of hope and faith. God in His
providence has seen fit to deny to US the
triumph which We deemed essential to
the welfare of the State. If we cannot
win, let US seek to deserve success. To
the manhood of the State do We appeal.
Let the Democratic party Of South Caro-
lima remain a power and an influence in
the State. Keep your ranks undivided.
Adhere to your political principles until
better ones invite you to their adoption.
From failure gather wisdom; out of de-
feat get patience and resolution. Pre-
serving your fidelity to the eclectic prin'
ciples of your party, go braveIy and ear
nestly to work in the field of material
Development. Thus building UP the
State upon the basis of labor, and sur.
rounding our political cre,ds with the
solid muniments of wealth, intelligence
and virtue, We will redeem our broken
fortunes, heal our bleeding wounds, and,
ere long, secure the peaceful triumph of
those wise and rirtuous elements essen
tiaI to the dignity of the State and the
prosperity of the people.

Respectfully submitted,
TFor the Herald

Mr.. ED1ToR-I sometimes think of ad-
vertising in your paper, but then again
when take the paper up to get some idea
how an advertisement ought to be written
I am dumb founded at sight OF the big no.
ties contained therein, and am almost in
clined to do as once heard of poor man
doing, namely, picking out one Of the most
conspicuous advertisements and persuading
you to let me put just beneath it "ME
TOO" and signing my name. Then again
I've heard it said, advertising is the sure
road to fortune, and as I am in need Of a
small one at least, thought I'd try all
means of getting it.
Just received $50 lbs. of Candy, hest
make and all favors, which l will sell at
prices, according to quantity, ranging from
80 to so cts per pound. Ginger snaps, GIN
ger nuts, sugar cakes and soda crackers.
Jellies of all kinds put up in beautiful gob-
lets, fresh fruits put up in cans, also oysters
and tomatoes put up in the same way, best
brands Of segars, genuine Durham mustard,
superior Italian maccaroni, drums of figs,
fresh lemons, salmon in cans, pipes ranging
in price from to rs cts. The above goods
have just been received. I also have Gu
cumber pickles, which get by the barrel
and sell at 81 per gallon, gallon holding
upwards of fifty pickles. Also few arti-
cles in the dry goods line, they are choice
goods, and in consequence If being bought
at auction can be sold extremely low. Gro
ceries Of all descriptions, also tin-ware.
Also received a choice lot of Florida
Oranges. Also to be received this week
large, fine Northern Apples.
/ will say to my friends and the public in
general, if you don't see in this notice what
you want, just pick out the most attractive
advertisement in the Newberry Herald, and
imagine you see at the foot oft, 'Me too,
only on smaller SCALE" ..... . ..

P. S.-Only one at a time.

ANOTHER MONSTER RAD1sH, and more
prodigious than the one last mentioned,
has been brought in by Mr.. Solomon XII
Dard, x-post master. This radish bears
of the palm, as it measures 214 inches
in circumference, Is in length, and
weighs just 8 pounds. Mr.. Kinard takes
the button, and We hold the radish, but
like the man with the elephant, We don't
know what to do with it, as it is neither
fit for man or beast to eat It resembles
Mount Yesuvius, and the jagged assures
on it's sides look like they may have
been made by the flow Of centuries of
molten lava, and is as hollow as the
mount itself; or it looks like the stump
of North Carolina 'Simmon tree, struck
by lightning. Take it altogether iti an
ugly vegetable, and of no earthly use to
anybody, especially printers. If it had
been potato, or pumpkin, or squash,
or turnip, or bushel of apples, or
cabbage. or pound or two of butter, or
even chunk of good lightwood, it would
be worth talking about, but big, ugly
radish, one part bark, two parts water
and the other part smell, is not good for
the wholesome. So much on the radish.
If any body is ambitious, for puff that
will make him feel like lifting himself up
by his straps to the roof top, let him
send in something eatable, digcstible and
profitable.

Her bonnet some" you bet;
But that lovely Grecian bend of hers
Was the 'heaviest" bend met.
Her waterfall was gorgeous,
And all who saw contend
That her grace was never equalled
By the Saratoga bend.
But alas, for maiden beauty,
Dust will return to dust,
And the most enchanting bender
Is doomed to moth and rust.
In stopping to assume her seat,
(I hate to tell, but must.)
Some whalebone thing that staid her up,
Bent double-and then burst"
She softly sighed, and then sweetly smiled,
And then in accents tender,
AS she rubbed her back, she gently said:
"Thank Heaven. I'm off my bender"

SUICIDE. We are shocked to hear Of
the suicide of Mr.. John Lee, BY cutting
his throat with razor, on Friday last,
at his residence near Batesville Depot, in
this District. Mr.. Lee was sixty years
of age and a highly respectable citizen,
and had for some time exhibited signs Of
mental alteration, but not sufficient to
induce any fear of this dreadful result.
