POLITICS.

From an industrial point Of view,
political agitation is hurtful to any
community, especially when the ag.
itation is long continued. We have
arrived at APPOINT in government at
which heated political canvass is
not likely TO produce much good,
but may be attended with much
harm; and we trust that the people
of Newberry will let politics and
the politicians alone until next fall
There are several "Richmond's
in the feld' already, with rumors-o -of
many more; but the likelihood is
that they will remain in the field,
unaffected by the summers heat, OF
popular indifference, until the pri'
mary election, or the nominating
conventions. And it is much more
important as well as more diff.
cult TO make a crop than to
make an officer. Our advice, then,
IS that the people ply their trades
and bend their energies to the i'm
proysment Of our county. The
politicians and candidates will
@keep."

For THE HERALD.

Mr.. EDITOR: Thinking that you
would like to hear something from
No. 4, drop you line in behalf OF
our sons and daughters. Everything
is quiet, and we seem to bear up un-
der the hard times as cheerful as the
spring. The weather is warm, and
the merry spring-bird begins to glad
den our hearts. The grain crop is
larger than usual and looking fine.
Fields are glowing with industry. As
I promised to say something OF the
sons and daughters and husbands too,
I say Prohibition q dry ticket i'll
YOUR town would benefit No. a, or any
other No. l do not say that No. q, is
worse than any other, but she takes
the lead. 1t is sad sight to see a
husband on returning home not know
his wife, and shake hands with her as
stranger, and putting on the airs OF
weak-eyed fop enquiries OF her where
abouts, asking about her horse and
buggy as il she were travelling through
the country, or puts her down as a
book agent, but after finding the sus-
pected agent is his wife, and overcome
by his terrible mistake, retires fol
the balance OF the night to make hen
nests. with the conclusion that his
wife ought to be whipped. Now
think you and every true citizen viii
advocate Prohibition from the noun
tain to the scaboard.

Why do not the s.many friends"
of some good man push him for
ward for the mayoralty ? Our town
election is almost at hand, and it is
of sufficient Importance in its conse-
quences, to demand some attention.
There is, we think, disposition to
retain the present council IN office,
and we are satisfied that no harm
would result to the town from doing
so, for the affairs of the town have
been wisely administered during
their term of Office The Mayor
has, however, frankly and candidly
given his reasons for wishing to
withdraw from the position he now
occupies, and we take it for granted
that the voters of the town will give
these reasons a favorable considera-
ton. In the event that Mr.. Pope is
not to be re-nominated, it might be
well to have the attention of those
who will control the election di-
rected to some good man who is
worthy and willing to be his sue,
cessor.

seThe Female Academy" again.

Mr.. EDITOR II would like to print
word as an addition to your last
weeks Editorial on the subject OF The
Female Academy. I have no reason
for supposing that your article was in
tended to be anything else than kind
to the Academy. Yet it is calculated to
mislead, or might so do. 1t is true
that there have been enrolled 1l2 pu-
pills since the beginning OF the Session
in Sept: but that does not mean that
there has been an actual attendance OF
112. The highest average attendance
during any one month since Sept. has
been ~ 27-100, and for the months
ending 9th, Feb. the average attend
ance was 81 and a fraction. Besides
the capability OF teacher is shown by
the advancement of his pupils and not
by the number that he may undertake
to instruct.
The Trustees have felt the necessity
for additional teachers at the Acade-
nv. What could'be the object in at
tempting to raise funds with which to
enlarge the school building if it is not
to make room for additional help in
teaching? You have put the horse at
the wrong end of the cart-That's all.
Urge upon the people the duty that
thcy owe to themselves and their
daughters to enlarge the Academy
building and the Trustees will, I am
sure, see to il that the school shall be
so conducted as to be most efficient.
The Academy, little noise as it makes,
is 10 little thing. 1t is one OF the most
Important if not the most important fac
tor in the problem of Newberry Society,
and every citizen ought to be interested
in its work. 1t is due to the members OF
the Board to say, that they have, in
every instance that has come under
nv observation, tried to discharge con-
scientiously their sacred trust. l re-
member once when it was proposed to
gentleman to teach at the Academy
only u or Is girls for as many hun
dred dollars that the Board said, mo,
the Academy is not designed for the
rich alone-the poor man must be al
lowed to receive its benefits. How
then can they discriminate? Whom
shall they refuse to receive as pupils!
In so for as contributions in money for
the needs of the Academy is concern
ed. venture the assertion that the
members of the Board have given ten
times more than any other eight. men
in the County. In this 1 stand upon
the record. l say this not because l
am employed by the Board; l do not
':crook the pregnant hinges OF the
knee where thrift may follow fawn-
ing" and that the Board well know,
but because justice demands that the
public should know how far these men
have done their duty.

We wish to know whether the
discussion of ssOur Public High
ways' will be put of, by common
consent, until the adjournment of
Congress, and Senator Buffers re-
turn from Washington. Unless it
has been decided that the matter
shall be kept in the background
until his return, it is time to renew
the discussion. Later in the year
the air will be full of politics, and
the highway to Office will engross
the thoughts of the people-to the
utter exclusion of the much travelled
and much discussed public high
ways. During the lull in the news
department, the editors of the State
might make judicious and whole.
some commentaries on Senator But
ler's epistles to the people of South
Carolina. 1t is important that the
true merit of these epistles should be
disclosed to the view Of the public,
for they embrace ''the plan" for inn
proving the public highways.

Hen Parties.-Their Lonesomeness.
From the Greenville News.

The young ladies Of Union re-
Gently gave party to which no
men were invited or admitted.
There was dancing and conversation
and mirth and music, and all who
were present declared that they had
had a delightful time. There were
no awkward masculine feet to play
havoc among dainty fabrics, and
no stupid lnasculiue brains to get
the figures and steps all wrong and
inspire untimely speeches. All
was dainty, gentle, feminine and
thoroughly lovely, according to the
report of the Union Times.
Nevertheless, we do not believe
that that style of entertainment
will reach any very great degree of
popularity among the young women
of the country. While they are al
ways ready to affirm with all proper
vehemence the superior attractions
and beauties of their own sex, an
opinion in which we fully coincide,
we have noted with perennial sur
prise through a protracted ard va
ried observation that their prefer
enee seemed to be for the society
of men. An assemblage of young
ladies in which there are no men
at all or too few to 20 around, u.s.
ually has an aspect Of subdued
lonesomeness. The hilarity may be
very great and the music of woman,
ly mirth may tinkle far through the
enraptured atmosphere, but if there
be a scarcity Of men there is newt
ably an indefnable aspect of some
thing lacking.
We do not know how to account
for this, but it is melancholy
truth. And on the other hand, we
have observed that the sparkle in q
young lady's eye is never quite SC
bright, the color in her cheeks new
er quite so intense, the smiling o1
her lips never quite so spontaneous
as when she is the centre Of a group
| of a dozen of the awkward, tobac'
| co perfumed, adoring men. Al.
these things are too deep for us
and we will not attempt to philoso
phize about them. We can only
throw few facts to the world fol
its discussion. But we do not be
lieve that "Hen parties will ever
become universally adopted instl
tutions in society. Furthermore
we have grave, perplexing doubts
never having attended one-if the
enjoyment of them is quite as ear
nest as is the pleasure of those per
sons who from time to time com
pose what are known as "Stag par
ties" although we dare say the for
mer are vastly more elegant anc
improving than the latter.

MIR. ODELL DUNCAN.

The Nears and Courier pays the
following deserved tribute to our cs,
teemed fellow citizen, Mr.. B. Odell
Duncan, who has been for several
years connected with the consular
service abroad.
In no department of the Govern
ment is there more need Of both in
telligence and experience than in
the consular service. Yet the Pres.
ident cheerfully kicks out deserv'
ing officers in order to made places
for personal friends. The case OF
the consul at Naples is striking il
lustration of the extent to which
favoritism is carried. Mr.. B. Odell
Duncan was appointed United
States Consul at Naples in 1869,
and previous to that time he had
been Consul in Germany for four
wears. From 1869, with the excep-
ton of few months when he was
Consul at Smyrna, Mr.. Duncan re-
manned at Naples as consul until
last fall; when he was transferred
from that place to Catania, Sicily.
This was promotion backward, as
Catania is a far less important place
than Naples and the emoluments
are smaller. Mr. Duncan declined
to 90 to Catania, and is ousted al
together. His successor in Naples
is the son of personal friend of
the President, who has never before
been in the Consular service, speaks
no foreign language and knows
nothing of Consular business, but
he is in poor health and wishes
to spend year or two in South
ern climate, at the public expense.
Mr.. Duncan, on the other hand, is
a fine linguist, understands his buis-
mess thoroughly, and has made
himself thoroughly respected by
both Italians and foreigners at
Naples.

Jalapa Item.

This item of pleasing intelligence is
from a colored reader of the HERALD,
and one who feels a deep interest in
the cause OF education, we are glad to
hear from him:
We arc pleased to announce that
we have a good Teacher one more
time at the Tranquil school. Since
Mr.. w. C. Sigh left we have been des-
titute of teacher that would discharge
his duty as we thought was necessary.
Our school has better opening this
term than it ever had before, and since
it has been open we have great cause
for pride, in knowing that it is quite
prosperous. We feel Il pride in its
success, and in the prosperity OF its
amiable and accomplished teacher.
The school has from forty to fifty daily
in attendance.

The View of the State pub
lished by the Neeos and Courier a
few days ago, showing the indus
trial growth of South Carolina,
called forth favorable comment in
all parts of the country. The view
taken of our industrial growth, by
some of our Northern contempora-
ries, is somewhat amusing, not to
say funny. Of course, they think
with one accord, and they are not
slow to express the opinion, that
all the coed that can be discovered
in our political or industrial life is
the immediate result of the aboli-
ton of slavery. They always sup
posed that freedom was better than
slavery, and with an air of superior
wisdom they give US word of
eommendation. The elevation of
the negro to civil and political
rights was, they think, our saliva
ton. This from the Boston Herald
will be taken with some allowance !:
at was one of the strong argu-
ments in favor of slavery that the
negro would not work if free. But
he is free, and he works more in
3ustriously than the white man of
the South does to-day. In South
Carolina the industry of the col.
orsd race cannotbs spared"
