Sunday-school at 9a. m. Thi Cash Sy?TE3I.—As we have to pay the cash for everything we use about our house and office, we are compelled to do a strictly cash business. We will take wood or pro visions. at market piices, in pay for sub scriptions. Although anxious for patronage, we prefer a limited cash bubiuess to an ex tended credit one. Notice. The time of several of our six months’ subscribers will shortly ex pire. If they wish the paper con tinued, they will oblige by remitting ug the amount of their subscriptions at once, as we intend stopping the paper as soon as the time is out. There are also a few names on onr book of six and twelve months? sub scribers who have not yet paid up. They are requested to settle without delay. We never intended to furnish the paper on a credit, and those re maining unpaid are parlies who pro mised to pay in a few days. Our limited capital necessitates our doing a cash business; and while we would like tojiave the name of everybody in the county on our subscription list, we do not solicit any but cash sub scribers, or those who will pay in wood or provisions. The Picnic Friday. In spite of the threatening weather last Friday, we found, on arriving at the grounds, a crowd of some five or six hundred persons in attend ance—the most of them being from Columbus. After an exchange of courtesies between the people and their visitors, dancing began, and was continued until the dinner hour, by those who participate in this amuse ment. Those who do not, amused themselves strolling through the pleasant woods, swinging, fishing, etc. (The Columbus Suu says “ it is re ported there is not a member of the finny tribe in-the whole stream.” But this is a slander upou the Mulberry creek. The truth is, the young peo ple preferred casting their hooks on land; and, from the indications, more than one fish, in the shape of a pretty girl, bit at the bait.) Of the dinner we need only say, that it was good, and, so far as we know to the contrary, all got some. This over, dancing was resumed and kept up till the time of depar ture. There was no disturbance during the day, and we did not see a single drunken man. The good order was probably owing to the presence of a squad of efficient Columbus police men, who were prepared to arrest any disorderly person. In behalf of our peojrfc, wo would say to those of Columbus, that the notice was too short, and the farmers too busily engaged lighting the to afford anything like a good turnout to welcome them. It is the intention of our citizens, when the railroad is completed to this place, to invite our Columbus friends to Hamilton, when we intend showing them how we can treat them, and how we will welcome them, when we all set our heads to gether, aud have time to prepare. A Good Thing. —One of the most serviceable and handy little things we have seen in a long time is an in. strument for cutting glass, called the “ Universal Glass Cutter.” Mr. Elli ott, of New Orleans, is the propri etor, and has had it patented. This Cutter is simpler than a diamond, cuts better, and is much cheaper. While a diamond is easily injured, it is impossible to hurt the Universal Cutter. Having given this tool a trial ourself, we are prepared to recommend it to others. It is small, convenient, and cheap. A few are on sale at the store of H. W. Pitts, & Cos., and we would advise anybody who has any use for a glass cutter, to call at once and secure one of these improved kind. N. &S. Road. —We are pleased to hear that the Governor hae signi fied his approval of the work on the North and South Railroad, and that he will shortly eign and turn over the bonds for the first twenty miles. This obstacle removed, the prospects ahead look cheering, and we hope that nothing will interfere to prevent the rushing forward of the road to wards this place and La Grange. Sunday-School Picnic.— A press of business prevented our being pre sent, as we had intended, at the pic nic on the Mulberry, last Wednesday, ef the Methodist Sunday-Schools from Girard and McAllwrterrille. We learn that all passed off pleasant ly, and the young folks enjoyed themselves exceedingly. The Local Editor. The following is borrowed, and it is the best we ever had a local editor leiid us: “ If a man buys anew buggy, or if his cow can bawl three times without winking, the local is expected to pro claim it with a grand flourish. If he starts a two-penny business, his first thought is to bribe the local witli a five-cent cigar to write up a five dollar pull. Indeed, He thinks it is a mission of the local to make his for- tune for him by ‘free blowing.’ He will take the local to oue side and point out the superior qualities of a rat-tei rier dog, and coolly ask him to * give him a hoist.’ He don’t care anything about it, only Spriggins has a dog which he thinks is a buster, and some of ’em wanted his ‘ put in’ just to take the conceit out of Sprig gins.’ Everybody wants to be‘put in,’ they are the ‘Great I Am,’ but no one says, ‘ Here, local, put yourself inside this new suit of clothes, or throw yourself outside this oyster stew, or stuff this watch into your pocket.’ Oh, no, of course not; that would cost something. The shoe is on the other foot, you see. The local is supposed to know every thing about other people’s business, and is expected to show up all the actors in every family broil in town. If the vile tongue of scandal finds a victim, people wonder why he don’t run about with his note book and gather up the vituperative bits ot slander for his paper. If he steps into a billiard hall, he is requested to make a note of the astonishing fact that Bill Tompkins has made a run of eleven points. When the minstrel troupe arrives in town, the agent im mediately rushes into the printing office, and calling for the local, he slips three or four tickets in his hand, and whispers: “ Draw us a big house! Put it strong!” and patting him pat ronizingly on the shoulder, the agent admits the inferiority of the troupe, but we are not to ‘let on.’ It is no sin for the local to lie. To please the lecturer the local is forced to sit two mortal hours to hear him through an insipid discourse, so that he can ‘ write him up.’ And so it goes. All are anxious to appear favorably in print, but few are willing to pay for it 1 The local’s time is worth nothing,but to bother his head writing puffs for ambitious persons. It don’t cost him anything to live. lie never eats, or drinks, or travels, and money is no use to him. Put it in 1 Put it in!’’ Another Snake-bite.— We are in formed that another negro was bitten on Mr. J. M. Kimbrough’s place a few days ago. He was getting eggs out of a nest, and, after being bitten, ran at once to his mother, told her a snake had bitten him, and putting down the finger on which he had re ceived the bite, told her to chop it off, which she did. He is now doing well. This happened on the same place where the negro was bitten and died a few weeks ago, an account of which was published in the Visit or. The snakes on this place are re ported to be unusually numerous this year. We learn that the negroes there have quit fishing at night, and are even afraid to go about much after dark. —i . Attention.— Everybody who' can furnish a wagon, a horse, a hand, or who is willing to work himself, is re quested to be present at the Metho dist church to-day to assist in fixing up the arbor and the ground round the church. A few loads of brush to cover the arbor, and of wheat or pine straw to lay on the floor, are particularly needed; and parties from the country will confer a great favor by bringing them in, if they can con veniently. Let us fix up things right, that our visitors may bear away with them a favorable opinion of the town. Large Potatoes. —Mr. J. M. VVeb ster brought ns in a day or two ago, a lot of the finest Irish potatoes we have seen this year. They were quite large, and eat well. In thanking Mr. W., we simply remark that such men make the heart of the printer to rejoiee. Anniversary Address. —The an niversary of the Methodist Sunday school will bo held on Sunday week next. The Baptist school will unite with them. The address will be de livered by Rev. Dr, Key, of Colum bus. About this time, as the alma naes say, it would be advisable for "yaller-legged” chickens to “keep their eyes skinned,” in order to save their heads. The people of Hamilton are painting and fixing up generally in readiness for the district-meeting which commences on the ISth tiist. Ftom Pomeroy’s Democrat. The Local Newspaper. TVhen anew town starts up some where in the West—new towns are always starting up there—the first thing, after the surveyor has got through with his work of laying out the lots, is to get a newspaper. No town ever thinks of even starting without its newspaper, for a town without its newspaper is like a cart without a horse—it wont go at all. Ihe importance ot the local news paper cannot be overrated; it is the life and spirit and necessity of the town. The ambition of every young community is to increase and build up; to thrive; to receive accessions to its population, its capital and its business, and there is not in any one thing so great an aid to this as in the local newspaper. It is through it that the town becomes known. The local newspaper goes into the most unaccountable places. Every one in the town where it is issued takes a delight in sending it to some friend or relative in some far off State; sons, who have gone into the wilderness of the West, will send it back to the old folks in New York or in Massachusetts, and the old folks will show it to other old folks, and the sons and daughters of other old folks will see it; they discover from its columns that a promising town is building up, an early friend and sehoolmate is getting rich, that there is a welcome and a sufficiency for all. Then in a few days some more of the sturdy sons of the East are driving into the Eldorados of the West, where so nyuiy have found homes and happiness'and fortunes. The local paper is always a good in dex of its town, and serves more than any thing else to tell abroad the character of the people, who are its constituents. It is always filled up with advertisements, but it is not al ways filled with those that pay any thing. In altogether too many coun try villages and towns are business men, who not only feel confident that the local newspaper ought to bo thankful for the privilege of printing their advertisements gratuitously, but they firmly believe that the miserable editor ought to thank God that he is permitted to breathe the air and tread upon the earth. What is a newspaper for if not to print adver tisements, and what right has a poor, miserable, poverty-stricken wretch of an editor to ask pay of a business man for any advertisement ? When there are a good many men of this kind in town we can tell it by a sin gle glance at the local newspaper. It looks muddy and scraggy ; adver tisements are set up in a bungling, careless manner, with wonderful in nocence of taste, and after they are once set up, are never again thought of only as something in bulk to fill up. They get mixed up, the type is battered, some letters get turned around, upside down, and then get pulled out to be used in the adver tisement of some man who does pay something, and the non-paying adver tisement is left a wreck and ruin of its former self, and appears each week without conveying the slightest idea of what it is for—a disgrace to the business man, a jeer to the editor and an insult to the subscriber, who pays for his paper. On the other hand, there are communities that delight in exten sive patronage to the local newspa per, and for which they pay promptly as for anything else they have in their business. A paper from a com munity of this character is always bright and neat looking, and no mat ter if its editor is not the most bril liant person in the world, he will, by neat type-setting and good press work, produce a journal that will be a credit to himself and his town. He gets pay for his work, and, therefore, not only finds it his duty to make a neat paper, but ho takes a genuine pleasure in it. It is reported ot a large city wholesale dealer, that he regularly took the local paper from the town where he had creditors. He said he watched the advertising columns, and so long as he found his patrons advertising with some show of spirit he was satisfied they were all right, but the moment he missed the advertisement he sent on tho*col lector, and got either his money or his goods, for he was satisfied that a man who didn’t advertise was a fail ure in business. The duty of every man is to sub scribe for his local newspaper, no matter what other papers he may take. In his city weekly he can get the news of the world, elaborate edi torials, essays, stories, agricultural hints, and the matters of general in terest; but he cannot find there the news which ho will prize most of all, and which he can find in his local paper, and that is the news of his neighbors. The local paper tells him that neigh bor Higgins has bought anew farm; that neighbor Thompson has sold two extra heavy hogs at an unusual price; that anew schopl-house is to be built down in the Hollow, and there is to be anew minister at the old white church. Four columns out of every five that contains reading matter in the local paper should be devoted to items that everybody in the neighborhood is interested in, for it requires no very deep .-intellect to see that such news id-'the very life and soul of the.local paoer, ana those that have tjone'this are the ones that have been most successful, No man should-take a eity paper in preference to his local paper. If he is to poor to take only one, let that one by all means be the one pub lished nearest his home. A man (nay. possibly endure without know ing all that is going on in Spain or South America, but he would be a poor ignoramus without a knowledge of his own town and neighborhood. Take your local paper, and do all in your power to make it a credit and honor to the town. Postal Cards and Letter Postage. The New York Bulletin makes the point that if the government can afford to provide, gratis, handsomely engraved pasteboard cards and carry them all over the country to their destination, it can much better afford to carry letters for the same rate, as it is no more expensive or trouble some to carfy a letter than a postal card, and there is no sound reason for the discriminating rates against the former. The editor adds: The truth is, the postal cards affords another consj -suons example of the tendency of governments to rush into unnecessary undertakings, while at the same time it performs those duties which are already entrusted to it badly and wastefully. This system really was not esseiitial to the public interests and convenience, and is chiefly important as the general pen ny postage for letters: For if postal cards—pasteboard for nothing—can be carried for a cent, there cau be no good reason why letters, the paper of which is provided free of govern ment expense, cannot bo forwarded at the same rate. Uncle Johnny Turner hasn’t succeeded in buying a mule yet, but yesterday gathered fifty pounds of honey from one gum. The natural history editor of the Lexington press tells this : “ A lady residing in a city not a hundred miles from Lexington is the possessor of two pets—a monkey and a parrot who are by no means congenial friends ; in fact Mrs. C. was in the habit of locking up the monkey when ever she left the house, for fear of his belligerent qualities. One even ing, alas 1 she neglected to do so, and coming in found the parrot rife for a fight and a fierce one ensued. The monkey ruthlessly pulled out every feather of the unfortunate par rot, and broke up the mantle orna ments, and smashed things generally. When Mrs. C. returned, she found the tnoukey chattering on the mantle piece, and out crept the parrot, look ing deeply injured, and greeted her with, ‘ We’vtt had a h—l of a time.’ The appropriateness of the remark caused a shout of laughter.” “Who Burnt Columbia ?’’—Every now and then this question is revived and discussed by the press. It has been decided each time that the or der to fire the city was given by Sherman, who, now that he perceives the stigma fastened upon the insti gator of the deed, attempts to deny it. But the proof is conclusive; and the name of Sherman will be handed down to posterity as the burner not only of the fair city of Columbia, S. C., but as the one who ordered the torch applied to our own thriving Atlanta, by which three-fourths of the city were destroyed, and numberless helpless women and children render ed destitute and homeless. In another place, we publish a let ter from one of Sherman’s soldiers, in which be says “ unrestricted license to burn and plunder was the order of the day.’’ To N ewspaper Borrowers. —Here is how editors talk to the borrowing individuals: “ Got a paper to spare ?” “ Yes sir; here’s one our last. Would you like to subscribe, sir, and take it regularly ?” “ I would, but I’m poor.’’ That man just came from the cir cus—cost, fifty cents ; lost time from his farm, fifty cents ; liquor, judging from the smell, fifty cents; making a dollar and a half already thrown away, and then begging for a news paper, alleging that he was too poor to pay for it t That’s what we call saving at the spigot and losing at the bung-hole. A Champion old Man of the Period.—The Peoria Review has its own old man, who reads that paper and no oilier, and thus describes him i “ Chewed tobacco sixty years and got fat on it it. Then he took to hard drink and followed it for twenty-five years, and grew younger every day. Now he reads his paper by moonlight alone, through jm inverted micro scope to make the type appear small enough for his eyesight. Walks four miles every morning for his drinks before breakfast'. Chops a cord of wood between each meal. Tried to die of old age thirteen times and failed every whack. Attends to the wants of his old and feeble grandson, and superintends the funerals of his posterity with a decency becoming his years. W3f~ “How are you getting along, John?” “Not very well; I have to live on my wits.” “I should think that would be a very thin diet.” w Tljcre is a mm who keeps a list of all the banks In the country, so that he will able to sty that be keep* a bank account.” It is Better. Better to wear a calico dress with out trimming, if it be paid for, than to owe the shop-keeper for the most elegant silk, cut and trimmed in the most bewitching manner. Better to live in a log cabin all your own, than a brown stone man sion belonging to somebody else. Better to walk forever than run in debt for a horse and carriage. Better to sit by the pine table for which you paid three dollars ten years ago, than to send home anew extension black walnut top, and pro mise to pay for it next week. Belter to meet your business ac quaintances with a free “don’t owe you a cent” smile, than to dodge around the corner to escape a dun. Better pay the street organ grind er two cents for music, if you must have it, than to owe for a grand piano. Bettor to gaze upon bare walls than pictures unpaid for. Better to drink thin soup from earthenware, if you owe your but cher nothing, than to dine off lamb and roast beef, and know that it does not belong to you. Better to lot your wife have a fit of hysterics than to run in debt for nice new furniture, or clothes, or jewelry, or any other tiling that woman wish for. A fit of hysterics, properly managed is often more real benefit to a woman than anything you can buy. It is better to treat them in this way : “ When she begins to cry for some thing she ought to know she cannot have try to reason with her a little.’’ t&p The most accommodating man we ever saw wns he who was cap tain of a steamship which plied be tween New York and Port Royal during the war. One day a soldier lost his cap overboard, and went to the captain about it. The old gen tleman said it was impossible to stop the vessel to recover it, but he kind ly offered to make a mark on the rail where it went overboard, and get it when he came back.
