The Public Schools .Instead of holding a separate institute for each of the counties of Chester and Fairfield, the boards of examiners of the two counties hav6 concluded to hold a union institute for white teachers at ^ Chester sometime this summer before the meeting of the State Institute. It is also probable that there will be a W joint institute between the same counties for colored teachers which will be held at Winnsboro at the same iime that the institute for white teachers is ^ held at Chester.

Smith. The machine is quite a con- vemem ining ana. as n seems to us ought to be patened. In the box which sits on a couple of wheels a freezer has been placed, this is operated by means of a band which runs over a whirl fixed 011 one of the wheels, and thus the supply may be adjusted to the demand at pleasure. With this arrangement the cream may be kept perfectly congealed too, an advantage that should not be overlooked. Mr. Mc. Smith says the whole thing is of his own invention. A Timely Move..On Tuesday last a commercial "evangelist" stepped off the train, at this place and instead of getting new customers for the house, got himself into trouble. He will have the sympathy however, of the traveling public* as the sequel will show. It seems that upon descending to the platform, he was politely accosted by the porter of one of our hotels who insisted on taking charge of his baggage and entertaining him for the night. The "evangelist" however preferred ' M mi I "to paddle ms own canoe." ine porter took hold of, and hanging on to the baggage with a tenacity which was thought inconsistent with the right of property; whereupon the man of commerce slapped the side face of the man of hospitality, and the latter declined to tolerate such familiarity and accordingly had a warrant issued for the arrest of his cosmopolitan assailant. This gentlemau however, during the night had concluded not to sell any tam fKa -fV\llrvrrrinct nnv gWUO II* IV'IW Vii IUV iVliVHltig MW t J and had taken the 4 o'clock freight and by daylight was prepared to plead successfully to. the jurisdiction of the Court. The Excursion to the Boro. The following paragraph is taken from the Winnsboro News and Herald, and the columns of the Heyisfrr nrp nnpn to anv of the VOnUS" ladies of the picnic party who feel like pitching into Brother Itagsdale, of the News and Herald, who is also a shining light in the Bachelors' Protective Union of the Boro: "The picnicking party of the Marion Street Methodist Sunday School of Columbia arrived iti town on a special train on Thursday morning at 9 o'clock. They repaired at once to the 'Fortune Spring Wood,' and it is said enjoyed the day immensely. The young ladies were very prettyj even for Columbia, but if we accept the criticism of the boys here very few of the young ladies were possessed of those peculiar personal attractions which sometimes enable a carriage-driver to become the hero of a romance. This, however, is'' from the opposition, ai>d before committing ourselves to a categorical statement, we win near irom me oiuer side. The crowd was not very large, but was perhaps large enough for all practical purposes. They returned about b p. m.".Register. We have here, simply additional proof of the conclusion, which we have held for sometime, that no gentleman can consistently remain ingtbe church and hold a place in the editorial sanctum at the same time. The combina- . tions which the "devil'' and the type are constantly forming against him lead him to forget the third injunction of the decalogue. In the original manuscript containing the above quoted paragraph we wrote, "The young ladies were very pretty even for Columbia, but if we accept the criticism of the boys here, very tew of tlyoung men (not ladies.) were possessed etc. Our friend of the Register will understand how the "ladies" slipped in here where they had no sort "of bnsidess. The context bears out our explanation^ but if this is not satisfactory to our fair friends of the capital, we hope, as the lawyers would say, thai they will before passing judgmeut upon us hear "further argument" at a time and place to be hereafter designated. "Oar Comrades." The Columbia Dramatic Leaugue, played "Our Comrades" at Boags? Opera House, on Wednesday night to a large and appreciative audience. It was expected that the plav would be a success, from the notices of the .League which nad previously appeared in the Columbia aiid Charleston papers but the measure of success of these amateur performers here; was a surprise to their most sanguine friends in the audience, indeed we are free to say tnat tney were not mierior to any professional troupe that has visited this place in our recollection. The play was chaste and elegant aud the characters were each well conceived and admirably executed. Miss Lily Pearce .as "May Manning" on reaching the climax of the play made a decided "hit," and demonstrated to the audience that she possessed those rare talents which enable an actress to invoke in an unexpected connection, the aid of the powers of pathos and of passion. The beautiful Miss MaySawyer gave us a "Bess Boadly" to whom no young man whose affections has not been previously "bestowed" would hesitate to make a declaration, and as to Miss Eleanor Percival, we can only say that she "did" "Nancy !Stipnpr" 515 well Viotto done it herself. Nor do we have any fault to find with the acting of the young men. Mr. TV. S. Reamer played "Marcus Graves" with aa ease and elegance which suggested the idea that "he had been there before," and Mr Cleve Sioan as "Simon Stone" won uew laurels. The audience were unanimous in his praise andjwe are not ready to say that he did not deserve it all. His gestures were well suited to his words, his voice deep but clear aau musical, iu snore we win uuuer-j take to say that he possesses dramatic talents of no inferior order. We should not neglect to mention in this connection the handsome vonng fellow whose name we have not been able to learn, who came from behind the curtain during the acts and alter- nately sold out the audienco and enchanted them with music on the banjo. He was repeatedly called back and the girls pronounce him a k'd;tisy.,J His witticisms were original, ihey did not suggest the circus ring or almanac. We will be glad to have the Dramatic League visit us again. The Event of the Seaioa. "TKa /* r £kn f rinnpnrio (/Ql'P jluv^ gi^al it vtivtv* v her exhibition according to appointment, at Boag?s Opera House, on last Friday evening. There were no empty-benches. Not only the entire town, but many from the surrounding country were out to witness the prodigions manifestations of a "new force." There was some delay behind the scenes at which the audience showed considerable impatience. The* "play" was to have begun at S.30. The cur! tain was raided about nine o'clock and the manager of the performance introduced Miss Hurst. He told the audience in a few words what thev should expcot, what hi.s protege had done, and what had been said about it. And in a very sarcastic tone, meant no doubt to be intensely withering, he intimated, in advance that none but the "beardless youth or the brainless dude" would be so rash as to suggest an explanation of anything thqfr chnnhl liimstiiro ilnrinu* tht» evtMl- ing.. Then the show commenced. The same tricks with the chair, the umbrella anil the billiard cue which she has already performed to the astonishment of the public everywhere were gene through with again. 'We have a few men in town of cxtraordinav muscular development, but none of them could resist successfully the magnetic maiden, nay she made it appear that she was superior to any number of them. The games however, be it remembered were all of her own selection Hip of hf>r own an- pcintmen't. In the course of the evening some gentleman on the stage offered the challenge that she try her hand on some iuauimate object, the manager promised that she would presently do so, he was approached later and he repeated the promise, the curtain went down however and still it had not beeu fulfilled. In accounting for how she does all these wonderful things, we may say that opinion in town is somewhat divided, a few ~ i<v ! .! i ]\n ^ ^Vi A OAf«C«A? l»Af V*? ur<uiHaujiiii£ iwin sue pvoacaoto uuluiu^ more than ordinary muscular energy largely supplemented by slight of hand. And in support of this position, the gentlemen who hold it, perform some of the tricks themselves, not so well as Miss Hurst of course, but still well enough to show at least that she has an immense advautage in the tussels. The great majority though are disposed to countenance - the view of a new and mysterious force. Why mysterious, however, we cannot see. A new force can certainly lay no greater claim to mystery than an old one, inffaari in the Kcrhf r>f the modern scientific doctrine of "the transformation and equivalence of forces," it would seem allowable to use the plural only for purposes of convenience. If a given quantity of heat may be transformed into an equivalent of electricity and so on through the entire list of physical and mental forces, then in final analysis there is bat one lorce. COURT OF G EXESAL SESSIONS. Tbe Court of General Sessions was convened on Monday morning, Judge Witherspoon presiding. The list of grand jurors was called and fifteen answered. Reminding tbem that they had already been charged generally, his Honor instructed them briefly as, to the duties of the office, the necessity for the enforcement of the law against carrying concealed aeaaiv weapons was specially referred to. The Solicitor submitted a number of bills and the grand jury retired to pass upon the same. The docket was then called and a number of cases continued from the last term of Court was disposed of. The list of petit jurors was next called and thirty-three answered to their names. A considerable number of these upon satisfactory showing were excused.

The jury, however, did not take this view and found the defendants "Guilty." The State vs. Simon Massey, charged with two cases of forgery was next called, xne aeienaanc put in a pica of guilty in both cases and was given eighteen months at hard labor in each.

Onr farmers are now earrvinsr on an active campaign against "Gen. Green", who has made his appearance in this section and who looks as if he had come to stay. Unless something is done.and that pretty soon.to check him, we fear that he will carry this part of the county by a large majority. Cotton and corn look well, and if kept "clean" bid fair to make a fine orop. Last Sunday the sacrament of the Lord's Sapper was administered at Horeb Presbyterian cburpfc. The paa^^ X> n r.\-i rvv/ionlio/1 Q IUI J tLie IvCY fJ X J iliaxiuiij yiguvuvu very eloquert and forcible sermon from 1. Tim., 1st chapter and 15th verse. The reverend gentleman said that it is a fact, which is to be deeply deplored, that such an occurrence as a Presidential election can awaken almost boundless enthusiasm, while the story of the sufferings and death of Christ.a subject of so much importance to mankind.very often fails to awaken any enthusiasm at all in the mind9 of a great many of his professed followers. He said that it was right! nnil nrmv>r that the nermle should be ",,v* 1" wrw" i r-- enthusiastic over the election of a good and pure man as an earthly ruler, but urged his hearers to be more enthusiastic in spreading the gospel. Another of our old citizens has gone' to that borne from which no traveler ever returns. Mr. AYm. Boyd died on the 23d ult. The funeral services were held at his late residence on Sunday, the 24th,.by the Rev. J. K. McCain. The remains were then interred in the family bnrving-ground. "We regret to learn that on Monday last Mre. Andrews, and aged lady, and the mother-in-law of onr esteemed friend Capt. W. N. Mason, fell and fractured her arm. Her injuries are painful, but we hope not serious. A few afternoons since two gentle- men might have been seen stepping briskly along in the direction of Brown's Bridge. One was tall and blender and the other was short aud thick. They reminded us of a picture we saw some time ago in a patent medicine almanac entitled, "Before and After Taking". They arrived at the river before sunset and put in their hooks--for they were on a fishing ex cursion.and made themselves as comfortable as possible for the- night. The next morning they fished their hooks and found "that they had toiled all night and caught no fish". The larger of the two gentlemen says that he will wipe up the floor with 4he next man that asks him to go fishing on Little River. > . b. NOTICE. * A LL persons are warned not to employ jlx.

HALLi'S Vegetable Sicilian HAIR EiENEWEE sras tie first preparation perfectly adapted to cure diseases of the scalp, and the first successful restorer of faded or gray hair to its natural color, growth, and youthful beauty. It has had many imitators, but none have so fully met all the requirements needful for the proper treatment of the li3ir and scalp. Hall's Hair Rzxzxvza has steadily grown in favor, and spread its fame and usefulness to every quarter of the globe. Its unparalleled success can be attributed to but one cause: the entire fulfilment of its promises. The proprietors have often been surprised at the rcceipt of orders from remote coun tries, where they had never made an effort for its introduction. The use for a short time of Hall's Hub Rexeweii -wonderfully improves the personal appearance. It cleanses the scalp from all impurities, cures all humors, fever, and dryness, and thus prevents baldness. It stimulates the weakened glands, and enables them to push forward a new and vigorous growth. The effects of this article ara not transient, like thoso of alcoholic preparations, but remain a long time, which makes its use a matter of economy.

An Ice Cream Saloon* ok Wheels..Mr. F. W. Habenicht will run daringthe present season the portable icecream saloon constructed by Mr. Mc.Smith. The machine is quite a con-

vemem ining ana. as n seems to us

ought to be patened. In the boxwhich sits on a couple of wheels a

freezer has been placed, this is operatedby means of a band which runs over a

whirl fixed 011 one of the wheels, andthus the supply may be adjusted tothe demand at pleasure. With thisarrangement the cream may be keptperfectly congealed too, an advantagethat should not be overlooked. Mr.Mc. Smith says the whole thing is of hisown invention.

A Timely Move..On Tuesday lasta commercial "evangelist" stepped offthe train, at this place and instead of

getting new customers for the house,got himself into trouble. He will havethe sympathy however, of the travelingpublic* as the sequel will show. Itseems that upon descending to the

platform, he was politely accosted bythe porter of one of our hotels who insistedon taking charge of his baggageand entertaining him for the night.The "evangelist" however preferred

' M mi I"to paddle ms own canoe." ine portertook hold of, and hanging on to thebaggage with a tenacity which was

thought inconsistent with the right ofproperty; whereupon the man of commerceslapped the side face of the manof hospitality, and the latter declinedto tolerate such familiarity and accordinglyhad a warrant issued for thearrest of his cosmopolitan assailant.This gentlemau however, during the

The Excursion to the Boro.

The following paragraph is takenfrom the Winnsboro News and

Herald, and the columns of the Heyisfrrnrp nnpn to anv of the VOnUS"ladies of the picnic party who feel likepitching into Brother Itagsdale, of theNews and Herald, who is also a

shining light in the Bachelors' ProtectiveUnion of the Boro:"The picnicking party of the Marion

Street Methodist Sunday School ofColumbia arrived iti town on a specialtrain on Thursday morning at 9 o'clock.They repaired at once to the 'FortuneSpring Wood,' and it is said enjoyedthe day immensely. The young ladieswere very prettyj even for Columbia,but if we accept the criticism of theboys here very few of the young ladieswere possessed of those peculiar personalattractions which sometimesenable a carriage-driver to become thehero of a romance. This, however, is''from the opposition, ai>d before committingourselves to a categoricalstatement, we win near irom me oiuerside. The crowd was not very large,but was perhaps large enough for allpractical purposes. They returnedabout b p. m.".Register.We have here, simply additional

proofof the conclusion, which we haveheld for sometime, that no gentlemancan consistently remain ingtbe churchand hold a place in the editorial sanctumat the same time. The combina- .

tions which the "devil'' and the typeare constantly forming against himlead him to forget the third injunctionof the decalogue. In the original manuscriptcontaining the above quotedparagraph we wrote, "The youngladies were very pretty even for Columbia,but if we accept the criticismof the boys here, very tew of tlyoungmen (not ladies.) were possessedetc. Our friend of the Registerwill understand how the "ladies"slipped in here where they had no sort"of bnsidess. The context bears outour explanation^ but if this is not satisfactoryto our fair friends of the capital,

we hope, as the lawyers wouldsay, thai they will before passing judgmeutupon us hear "further argument"at a time and place to be hereafterdesignated.

"Oar Comrades."The Columbia Dramatic Leaugue,

played "Our Comrades" at Boags?Opera House, on Wednesday night toa large and appreciative audience.

It was expected that the plav wouldbe a success, from the notices of the.League which nad previously appearedin the Columbia aiid Charleston papersbut the measure of success of theseamateur performers here; was a surpriseto their most sanguine friends inthe audience, indeed we are free to saytnat tney were not mierior to any professionaltroupe that has visited thisplace in our recollection.The play was chaste and elegant aud

the characters were each well conceivedand admirably executed. MissLily Pearce .as "May Manning" on

reaching the climax of the play madea decided "hit," and demonstrated tothe audience that she possessed thoserare talents which enable an actress toinvoke in an unexpected connection,the aid of the powers of pathos and ofpassion. The beautiful Miss MaySawyergave us a "Bess Boadly" towhom no young man whose affectionshas not been previously "bestowed"would hesitate to make a declaration,and as to Miss Eleanor Percival, we can

only say that she "did" "Nancy !Stipnpr"515 wellViotto

done it herself. Nor do we have anyfault to find with the acting of theyoung men. Mr. TV. S. Reamer played"Marcus Graves" with aa ease andelegance which suggested the idea that"he had been there before," and MrCleve Sioan as "Simon Stone" won

uew laurels. The audience were

unanimous in his praise andjwe are notready to say that he did not deserve itall. His gestures were well suited tohis words, his voice deep but clearaau musical, iu snore we win uuuer-j

take to say that he possesses dramatictalents of no inferior order.We should not neglect to mention

in this connection the handsome vonngfellow whose name we have not beenable to learn, who came from behindthe curtain during the acts and alter-nately sold out the audienco and enchantedthem with music on the banjo.He was repeatedly called back andthe girls pronounce him a k'd;tisy.,JHis witticisms were original, ihey didnot suggest the circus ring or almanac.We will be glad to have the DramaticLeague visit us again.

her exhibition according to appointment,at Boag?s Opera House, on lastFriday evening. There were no

empty-benches. Not only the entiretown, but many from the surroundingcountry were out to witness the prodigionsmanifestations of a "newforce."There was some delay behind the

scenes at which the audience showedconsiderable impatience. The* "play"was to have begun at S.30. The cur!tain was raided about nine o'clock andthe manager of the performance introducedMiss Hurst. He told theaudience in a few words what thevshould expcot, what hi.s protege haddone, and what had been said aboutit. And in a very sarcastic tone,meant no doubt to be intensely withering,he intimated, in advance thatnone but the "beardless youth or thebrainless dude" would be so rash as

to suggest an explanation of anythingthqfr chnnhl liimstiiro ilnrinu* tht» evtMl-

ing.. Then the show commenced. Thesame tricks with the chair, the umbrellaanil the billiard cue which shehas already performed to the astonishmentof the public everywhere were

gene through with again. 'We have a

few men in town of cxtraordinav musculardevelopment, but none of themcould resist successfully the magneticmaiden, nay she made it appear thatshe was superior to any number ofthem. The games however, be it rememberedwere all of her own selectionHip of hf>r own an-

pcintmen't. In the course of theevening some gentleman on the stageoffered the challenge that she try herhand on some iuauimate object, themanager promised that she wouldpresently do so, he was approachedlater and he repeated the promise, thecurtain went down however and stillit had not beeu fulfilled. In accountingfor how she does all these wonderfulthings, we may say that opinion intown is somewhat divided, a few

of the tricks themselves, not so well as

Miss Hurst of course, but still wellenough to show at least that she hasan immense advautage in the tussels.The great majority though are disposedto countenance - the view of a new

and mysterious force. Why mysterious,however, we cannot see. Anew force can certainly lay no greaterclaim to mystery than an old one,inffaari in the Kcrhf r>f the modernscientific doctrine of "the transformationand equivalence of forces," itwould seem allowable to use theplural only for purposes of convenience.If a given quantity of heat may betransformed into an equivalent ofelectricity and so on through theentire list of physical and mentalforces, then in final analysis there isbat one lorce.

COURT OF GEXESAL SESSIONS.

Tbe Court of General Sessions was

convened on Monday morning, JudgeWitherspoon presiding. The list ofgrand jurors was called and fifteenanswered. Reminding tbem that theyhad already been charged generally,his Honor instructed them briefly as,to the duties of the office, the necessityfor the enforcement of the law againstcarrying concealed aeaaiv weaponswas specially referred to. The Solicitorsubmitted a number of bills andthe grand jury retired to pass upon thesame. The docket was then called anda number of cases continued from thelast term of Court was disposed of.The list of petit jurors was next

called and thirty-three answered to

their names. A considerable numberof these upon satisfactory showingwere excused.

Onr farmers are now earrvinsr on an

active campaign against "Gen. Green",who has made his appearance in thissection and who looks as if he hadcome to stay. Unless something isdone.and that pretty soon.to checkhim, we fear that he will carry thispart of the county by a large majority.Cotton and corn look well, and if kept"clean" bid fair to make a fine orop.Last Sunday the sacrament of the

very eloquert and forcible sermon

from 1. Tim., 1st chapter and 15thverse. The reverend gentleman saidthat it is a fact, which is to be deeplydeplored, that such an occurrence as a

Presidential election can awakenalmost boundless enthusiasm, whilethe story of the sufferings and death ofChrist.a subject of so much importanceto mankind.very often fails toawaken any enthusiasm at all in themind9 of a great many of his professedfollowers. He said that it was right!nnil nrmv>r that the nermle should be",,v* 1" wrw" i r--

enthusiastic over the election of a goodand pure man as an earthly ruler, buturged his hearers to be more enthusiasticin spreading the gospel.Another of our old citizens has gone'

to that borne from which no travelerever returns. Mr. AYm. Boyd died on

the 23d ult. The funeral services wereheld at his late residence on Sunday,the 24th,.by the Rev. J. K. McCain.The remains were then interred in thefamily bnrving-ground."We regret to learn that on Monday

last Mre. Andrews, and aged lady, andthe mother-in-law of onr esteemedfriend Capt. W. N. Mason, fell andfractured her arm. Her injuries are

painful, but we hope not serious.A few afternoons since two gentle-

men might have been seen steppingbriskly along in the direction ofBrown's Bridge. One was tall andblender and the other was short audthick. They reminded us of a picturewe saw some time ago in a patentmedicine almanac entitled, "Beforeand After Taking". They arrived atthe river before sunset and put in theirhooks--for they were on a fishing excursion.and made themselves as comfortableas possible for the- night. Thenext morning they fished their hooksand found "that they had toiled allnight and caught no fish". The largerof the two gentlemen says that he willwipe up the floor with 4he next manthat asks him to go fishing on LittleRiver. >

fully met all the requirements needful forthe proper treatment of the li3ir and scalp.Hall's Hair Rzxzxvza has steadily grownin favor, and spread its fame and usefulnessto every quarter of the globe. Its unparalleledsuccess can be attributed to but onecause: the entirefulfilment of itspromises.The proprietors have often been surprised

at the rcceipt of orders from remote countries, where theyhad never made an effortforits introduction.The use for a short time of Hall's Hub
