\
week from the Rev. R. A. Fair, no"
the popular pastor Of the Presbyterian
Church at Newberry, who was on Visl'
to friends and relatives here. He is an
able and Jealous minister, and has been

charge of bis pastoral duties. He has
many warm friends and relatives here

PERsoNAL.-The pleasure Of a visit
from DR.. White, ofthe Beaufort Tribune
is acknowledged. The Doctor has a
large circle of friends in this section,
| and we hope they take the Tribune.
Mr.. Med. Nets again favored us
with a visit. He will be here off and
on for some ten or twelve days, and is
making many sales.
DR.. E. E. jackson arrived here this
morning, and to the disappointment OF
many friends got off the train at Gravel
Town to avoid the pressure which
awaited him at the depot. He is averse
to public receptions. Mrs. j., his &C.
complished wife, has been here several
days sojourning with Capt. Mazycks
family.
The GATE CITY NURsERIEs.-Our
friend, John W. Baker, Agent of the
Atlanta Gate City Nurseries, left Green
Vile last Monday for Columbia, expect
ing to ride through on horseback, from
which point he will at once commence
the delivery of orders made with him
for Fruit Trees, Shrubbery. etc., at va
rious points on the Greenville and Col
umbia Railroad. He expects to be ab-
sent month or six weeks in the work.
We wish him much success, and recon-
mend him to those who do not already
know him, and wanting to make pur-
chases in his line.
[E,a ;aprise & MoztastaSaeer.
From the above it will be seen that
this enterprising agent is on bis rounds,
and we are able to add that he will be
at Pomaria on the 10th, Prosperity, 22d,
and at Newberry on the 25th. Look
out for him.
REI1G1oUs.-There will be commun-
ion service at the Thompson Street
Church on next Sabbath. The reli-
gious services will commence on Satur-
day.
The Rev. Jas. Fair preached a very
impressive and eloquent sermon in the
Methodist Church on Sunday night last.
His text was from the I'd chap. Of the
first epistle of John, 1st verse.
The regular monthly meeting Of the
Thompson Street Church Foreign Mis-
sionary Society, was held on last Tues
day evening, on which occasion an able
address was delivered by T. S. Moor
man, Esq, an interesting letter from
Miss Galloway, Missionary at Cairo
Egypt, was read, and very liberal col
lection taken up. The letter alluded to
we will present to our readers in next
issue.
"Col. Peake expects soon to reach the
portion Eof the Laurens Railroadl where
the T rail is used"
Just so, Mr.. Herald. But who OF Us
Door ignorant people in Abbeville know
where the T rails? Ifthe Laurensville
! Herald and the Newberry Herald don't
! quit speaking in riddles about the Lau'
rens Railroad, we will see that the edl-
tors angels don't get free pass over
that important railway.

The editors of the Press q Banner
| are not the men for small ''tea parties
| nor have they travelled much, other
| wise they would know where the I rail
is situated. Lest they rail at US again
| we hasten to inform them that the 1
rail is situated between two and three
miles this side of Clinton, and that Gin
ton is nine miles below Laurens. Let
! US have peace. In this connection we
are happy to state that Col. Peake is
| working his force like beavers, and ere
| long the whistle of his train will rever'
berate through the city Of Laurens'

| made daily.
A RISING HoUsE.-Patience, perse'
verance and indomitable energy will
assuredly meet its reward, as is evi-
denced in the business success Of A. d.
Lovelace. which has grown from very
small and modest beginning to one oi
| considerable importance. His well fill
ed shelves, loaded counters, and piled
floors attest the fact, that there supplies
| of all kinds can be had, not only in
| heavy groceries for plantation use. but
| in the stock known as family groceries
Neither is he unmindfal of the wants oi
| those who need something sweet-fo1
| his stock of candies and mic macs is un'
| usually large. Besides these he has
lately added to the variety a select line
| of dry goods, which have been chosen
| with care and taste by Mr.. B. H. Love
lace, whose large experience in mer'
camille life is well known here, and il
may be well to mention that this gen
tleman will now devote his time an6
| attention to this business, and will be
