The storm had reached its height as
we left the house. The spray was driv-

grass, and now and then a piece OF
white foam, blown up from the seeth-
ing caldron below, would fly past us
into the darkness beyond. The man
made but one step from the doorway
and stood still, with his eyes fixed on
the sea. He seemed entirely insensible
to the war of the elements and to the
dash of the rain in his face. Something

my wife was taken with a severe pain
in her side. which was soon followed
by hcmorrhages from her lungs, Sc
we're cough, fever, and she could neither
eat or sleep. and in few weeks she
WAS reduced to living skeleton. Her
stomach refused TO retain any food
and the physician thought one OF her
lungs was entirely gone. At final
consultation of two physicians her
case was pronounced hopeless. Itricd
Brewers Lung Restorer by advice OF
one OF the physicians and she began
to improve after the third dose. She

in Newberry. and We do not wish to
iniure him-if he had gone on set
ting his type and writing his three
columns a week for the Observer,
without dipping his pen Extensively
into other peoples business, we
should have left him to himself
and others. If he aspires to the
high position Of censor and curator
Of public morals in Newberry, we
do not object. unless his private
character gives the lie to his public
professions. We were here when
he came, and we expect to be here
when he has gone. We suspect
that he will not favor US with his
presence many years-he is rapidly,
very rapidly, outgrowing the town
of Newberry, and his own develop
ment must force him to leave. We
regret this, for he is the recognized
champion Of moral ideas in our
town. Let it not be said when he
is gone. that he was irsolent with.
out authority and impertinent with
out ability.
One word in conclusion. If IS"
means that the HERALD has said or
done anything in this matter that
shows it to be a dullard, or ifhe cx-
.pects the public to believe that we
are dullards because he saysso, he is
either a fool or q knave, or both.
AS he is expert in the choice of
epithets, he may appropriate the
one that suits him best. 50 and
the public need not be told that
this is not intended as ''witticism."

A Lively Scene in Our Convention.

The following is clipped from the
.Ne,cS and Courier's report OF the pro-
cecdings OF odr Convention
Gen. y. J. Pope, il a very eloquent
and happy manner, presented reso-
luton endorsing the candidacy Of the
Hon. George Johnstone for Congress
from the Third Congressional District.
He thought il was time that Newberry
should have some Congressional h0M-
O :. and in the Hon. George JOhn.t0ae
he had q son who could wear the
laurel wreath with credit 10 himself
AMI his county.
Col. E. S. Keitt followed and offered
II resolution endorsing the candidacy
of the Hon. d. Wyatt Aiken for re-
election. He spoke OF him as repre-
,enting the farming interests and Of
his efforts to establish an agricultural
bureau. He attempted to prejudice
the farmers against the placing Of
LAWYERS in such positions. Maj. G. B.
Buist. Gen. A. c. Glrlington and J
Y. Culbreath followed in very happy
efforts seconding the resolution OF Y.
J. Pope, Gen. Garlington resented the
idea of trying to introduce class lcgis-
!ation-the idea of setting up one class
against another, and properly said q:
1--WE do not want man TO represent
any particular class
Tp to this point everything that had
been spoken was spoken in good hu-
NOR and without the appearance of
aur ill-feeling. Mr.. J. L. Keitt rose
to second the endorsement OF MI.
AIcn, and his speech was tire-brand
thrown into the otherwise cool cOnyen-
zion. He said he did nOl rcgard hr. john
stone as competent to rcI.~Cstnt this
District in Congress. He charged him
,with being instrumental in the defeat
OF bill in the State Legislature direct
" I'm the interest OF the farmer. He
charged Mr. JOhnstOne with having
said on that bill that the agricultural
interest iu particular was getting too
strong and should be throttlcd. Mr..
Keitt said he had taken special pains
to look this matter up, and he be-
lieycd. Mr.. JohnstOnc was active in
his efforts TO pass legislation against
the farming interest.
Gen. Darlington demanded the proof
Ol Mr.. Keitt. He had tried to obtain
il, but failed. Mr.. Kcitt said il it was
not correct he would correct it, but he
believed it to be correct. He had
scarcely taken his seat when dozen
or more delegates sprang 70 their
feet to resent the wrcng done to Mr..
Johnstonc and the advantage taken OF
his absence. but Gen. y. J. Pope was
recognized by the chairman. He was
very much excited, and branded the
charges OF Mr.. Keitt as the most dam
nable he had ever heard made against
any man. The statements OF Mr..
Keitt were not made as his own, but
rs those that somebody else had heard
somebody else say, and he pronounced
them fatty a lie. Confusion became
worse confounded and things began to
look lively, but finally a vote was
taken, and the resolution endorsing
George tombstone was adopted amid
great applause, very few voting
8wainst II.

Why is it that in the town and
country of Newberry, there is not
q greater love for books, good
books we mean. Surely it is not
because Of any lack Of books, or
that the cost is too great. No such
thing. 1t is because the people
have not been educated up to this
point. They do not see the ne
cessity of reading and acquiring the
information which books afford,
more the pity. A book seller prop
er would starve if he depended ex-
clusively on his sale of books.
Even so too, Is it with newspapers.
In Newberry, in fact in the South,
the people are not a reading people
and not one in twenty who can read,
takes a newspaper, and the conse-
quence is that they are in the dark
as respects the common, everyday
occurrences which engross the COM
munity and the world. Not so it at
the North, for there almost every
man woman and child reads one or
more,s some as many as dozen news
papers. BY this means they keep up
with the politics of the country and
every other topic floating around.
Take New York for instance-cast
your eye over street car, it is full
OF people, cosmopolites and citi-
zens, and every one of them has his
face closely buised in a paper,
reading for bare life. May be one
of the reasons why it is not the case
in Newberry is that we have no
street cars. Let our city fathers
run line Of horse cars from the
depot to the Fair grounds and let
US see if the papers will be more
appreciated. This is one of the
things We should like to see.
