The Commissioners Advertising.

In the last issue Of the Obse,ver ap-
peared an editorial under the heading
Legal Advertising, and reference is
particularly made to the plan agreed
upon by the County Commissioners to
let out their advertising to the lowest
bidder. We, like the Observer, do not
like the plan, although We did take the
advertising and job work OF the Town
Council at the lo,cest figures. While the
lamp holds out 10 burn, however, we
return to first principles, and will not
be guilty of doing so again. We re-
gard this plan of the Commissioners a
bad one. The Commissioners and the
Town Council are just as able to pay
regular rates as any private individual,
and better, for the reason that the pay
does not come out OF their own pockets.
We for one have had to pay our taxes
both to the Clerk of Council and to the
State Treasurer, and pretty heavy taxes
too, and no part was remitted, and we
think that both these bodies should
pay for their advertising. The pro-
rate plan is the best that can be adopt
ed. Let the regular rates be paid out
among the three papers. This will
give the advertising full and general
circulation at very small cost true
neither the HERALD, the NeacS nor the
0bserrer will grow rich on such pay, but
it will be the most honorable plan for all
parties.

Grumble Station.

INessrs. Ed1os:-I see and read so
much about the public schools that I
want to say q word or two from this
place. say the public school is the
very thing for US Poor Farmers (and
there are no rich ones down here).
We can send our children to school 5
or 6 months in the year and work them
the balance of the year, and learn
them books and farming both as they
grow up. Our children here are get
ting better educations than they would
if We had no public schools; the diff
culty. with the schools here is every
body wants public school in his own
ward, and they wont send their chill
dren regularly because some OF them
have to 90 two miles to school. And
another thing, the parents wont sup
plement the public funds, and run the
school s aud 10 months, as they ought
to do. The worst thing / see about
the public schools is the Teachers !;
most OF them are teaching for the
money, and not for the advancement
of the children (or book learning. as my
old friend calls it). Well the Legis-
lature ought to make law, added to
the school law, to compel all parents
to send their children to school, or fine
them so much if they do not send. The
school law could be improved along
here to good advantage to the children.
| am a public school man myself, and
want them to go on to perfection by a
little more law and help from Patrons.

Oh JOY. Oh Rapture.

Six months, dry, droughty, dusty,
dreary, dragging, and hot months, have
come and gone, gone into the misty,
murky, melancholy past, since it was
our pleasant privilege to hide under
the capacious emptiness OF our vest
fresh oyster. This long spell was
broken on Thursday evening last, and
the apartment into which the bivalve
entered has not recovered from the
surprised and happy feeling into which
it was thrown yet. Nothing will eff
feet this happiness so quick, so effect
ually as an oyster, either t. +. or S., or
ON half shell. The latter perhaps will
do the business in shorter, and better
time, but as for us all that we desire
is the oyster, a fat, sweet, q deli
cious oyster. Long may they wave.
They are to be had at the restaurant
of MIR. Sam Jones. Our happiness
was made complete at the rate OF 60
cts. per quart, and any other man can
be placed under the same influence
for like sum.

Messrs. Edifors:-I aint wrote you
from here in a good while; I have been
sick and did not care to write; news is
mighty scarce any how. The cotton
crop here is not quite half the corn
crop about a half; the pea crop is al
most failure, wont make seed. We
are nearly done picking cotton, a few
bales now and then yet to open.
Health tolerably good. We are all
down-hearted, can't pay our debts,
and the ground so hard We can't sow
oats. We intend to sow large grain
crop if We can get rain to put the
ground in order. We all have good
many hogs to fatten down here, but no
corn to fatten with. Mr.. John A..
Graham has one sow that has had
twenty-nine (29) pigs since last Christ
mas. Come down all We hog raisers
and get some of her stock. There are
few cases of Matrimony pending in
this section for frosty weather. Can

centsa piece out OF 81 if you can, We
will be able to pay for our guano and
liens with a half crop, and the Editors
too. MAHARG.

Jalapa.

OdIdpd.
What we did not see on the line
from town TO Jalapa-
Not sirgle white man, and but one
young lady, Miss jamie Chalmers, the
very acceptable and much beloved
teacher at Jalapa, ON her way home
with young Willie Kinard, a pupil.
What had become of the population ?
Arrived in town-the same desolate,
silent scene was presented-not soul
was to be seen. There had been a
partridge hunt that day and no doubt
the multitudinous inhabitants were
resting.
Two first class stores were open,
and bright colored goods could be seen,
but, clerks, proprietors and customers
were not.
Drove on to w. c. Sligh's, found
him and wife, Mrs. Glasgow and MIR.
Ned. Wallace within. Went in and
rested.
Later rode on to Col. Cannon's, saw
him and his wife; purchased the origi-
nal cow with crumpled horns-sup-
pose she is the some by the number Of
rings her horns showed. Return to
Sligh's.
It being partridge day We had the
birds for supper, it was a delicious
meal.
Likewise for breakfast next morn
ing. Left Sligh's and reached Jalapa
again, this time saw Judge Campbell,
and his feet were elevated so much
higher than his body, we could not
wait for hinpto come down.
On the road saw Mrs. Sallie Kinard
in her door, got few fine potatoes
from her, saw Thompson Cannon and
wife, and Ernest Merchant and wife
driving. This is about all that we
saw and what We did.

The Fair.


Our County Fai:js in progress as we
90 to press. yesterday being the first
day. All accounts of it in detail will
appear in our next Issue. We can only
speak in this, of the prospects of the
Fair. A drive to the grounds yester-
day conyincedus that so faras exhibits
are concerned it is destined to be a
success. When we last called on the
Secretary, Tuesday evening, he had
taken in $50 entries and expected some
GOO more. The display OF ''home-
raised'' and ''home-made" things
is especially imposing. The County
raised horses, mules and cattle are very
creditable to our people. The display
of field crops and vegetables is good
considering the late drought in which
they matured; County raised rice and
sugar cane are prominent in this de-
partment. The industries of the State
are well represented by the Granite
vile, Piedmont, Pelzer, Charleston
and Sibley Manufacturing Companies
the latter however is an Augusta
Company. The display of these mills
is very suggestive and gratifying.
All the other departments are gen.
orally well filled but Of these we will
speak hereafter.
1t only remains to hope that the at.
tendance on the Fair will be as good
as the display. The people should en-
courage it at least by their presence
With a good attendance to-day and TO-
morrow the present Fair will be a sue
cess and the Agricultural and Mechan-
ical Association firmly established.

The other Side of the Question.

The other Side of the Question.
The advocates, defenders and apollo
gists of bar-rooms and whiskey, say,
that these monsters of iniquity help
the trade Of place, and, to interdict
them, would be to cut off business.
We heard a planter, who makes and
controls quite number OF bales OF
cotton, and whose trade would be an
item in any mans business, say that he
could never, under existing circum-
stances, take another loadof cotton,
the great staple, to Newberry, and
gave as the reason that his teamsters and
laborers. who accompanied his wagons
to your town were too much demoral-
ised by whiskey, that time was lost on
their return home, which cost him
money enough to make the transac-
ton too expensive. I give this as an
item OF information, whilst earnestly
invoking Almighty God for the coming
of the day, which no doubt will come,
when these monsters of vice and
ruin shall be banished from our fair
heritage. Respectfully,
A. A. GILBERT.

He writes that his wife, lone .Freder-

heartfelt sympathies in this time OF
sore bereavement.
Since placing the above in type an

Fortunately she was near the corner
of Friend Street, and with the most re-

horses around the corner not a second
too soon, and thus escaped dreadful
collision, perhaps death. Miss Kate
was accompanied by young MISS.
There was heroism in the action.
