Mr. Wi C. Sherard, of Monterey, was! c
in town last Thursday, and brought with I
jii111 a sample of his (il'toen month's hogs.Is
It weighed ;)1- poun Is, and was bought jl
by Manuel MclCollar. and is now being ?
lid t:> our people. This hog was brought ?
to thai jrreat weight in this way: Until i
it was tint teen uiontnsom u ran in ..ir. *
Shcrard's pasture. Two mouths ng > it'P
was put iu a close pen, whore lit; led itjv
eight oars of refuse corn, tlireo times a ^
day ? being grain which could '
not have been utilized otherwise. Mr. "
Sherard thinks that he made some til'tecn 1
or twenty dollars pro tit on the hog, and v
we think that other farmers might lake a

last Wednesday* f<>r tlio benclit of his}
creditors. The liibilitios are supposed t*? j
bo $2,AU0. The nominal assets, will j
amount to about half that amount, and j
Mr. llcaeham hopes that the assignee will
he able to pay some twenty-live cents on .
the dollar of his liabilities. Mr. ItoachJim
is young and energetic, lie hopes, ifj
ho can bo relieved of his debt, to rise. ,
ngain< He accounts for his failure

The Lanreivtville Herald last wook;
told of two wonders in Laurens. The;
lirst was a cow that had been giving:
milk continuously for seven years; the
second was that, that there was a man in i
that county who had meat in his smoke
house. That paper also mentioned that it
knew of a third wonder, but, like a pru-j
dent newspaper would do, it declined to
tnake further draft on the reader's cru-i
dility at that time. The third wonder j
will be told next week. We should be.
not surprised if that paper doesn't put in ;
u claim that there Is a farmer somewhere
in that county, who has corn in his crib, j
We warn the Herald, against reckless i
statements. 1

Asked a gentleman of a little boy one day. i
"Doyou see thosi'drunkardsyouder?" "Ye?." j
said ho. "Well tnen wSieu tiiey are dead end i
pom; who will till their places?" He answered.
"Us bo> Yes, the hoys of to-day will !'
make the future drunkards. Many of those
brlghteyeil little boys you see every day may 1
be among their number. Header, some of I
them may be very near and dear to you.
A love lor strong drink is often acquired in
childhood. Parents are very frequently so
thoughtless as to drink ardent spirits in the
presence of their children ? not only so
thoughtless as toUrink ardent spirits in th< ir
presence, nm even so uicousnjeraie as 10 oner i
It to them to drink, thereby selling before I
them a bail example nn<l tempting 1 hem at (
the .vanie time. Many times they see their >;
foil.v when it is too late?too late to reclaim a <
drunken son. IJoys don't drink ttie drunk-. J
ard's drink. Touch not, ta-te not, handle not i
the curscd stull is the only sale Way. Then
poet has wisely said: i (
"Ali! brandy, brandy bnrte of life,
Source of tumuli, eause of strife |
Could 1 tiut half thy cause toil.
The wise would wish tuee safe in helh" | j
Now, the question arises how shall wecon-H
qtier this giant evil in temperance? How but <
bv uniting with the Soldiers of Temperance !
and rising in opposition to it. Let us see 1
what Temperance Societies have already
done. They have already drawn into their
circle many of tlie honorable men and lead- >
ins characters of our nation. Against intent- 1
perancc distinguished men have plead and i!
venerable J udues have passed sentence. Tem
peranee organizations nave been established |
throughout the civilized world which are now j
laboring In a noble?a cause which will ever,
have a tendency to perpetuate peace and
plenty over the land. If every member of the
Temperance Cause will but do his or herduty, I
the day is not lar distant when the clouds of
Intemperance that have so long darkened our j
skies will be scattered by the golden beams of
truth and temp, ranee.
Now, In the name of common-sense and In
the name of all that is sacred, and in the
name of fair woman, and in the name of all
that is noble, that is great, that is virtueous,
and in the interests of agriculture, and in the
interests of commerce, and in the interests of:
educational Improvements and more than all |
in the interests of the future generations, I
would say to you who have ever touched your
lips to the fatal destroyed?King Alcohol?to
bid it a final farewell now and forever, and do
all within your power to promote the cause of
temperance and thus help to alleviate the sufferings
of humaniiy. N. 0. l'YLES.
