?THE mmiiI?rMCER. LOCAL, MATTERS. TO ADVERTISERS. The Anderson Intelligencer has the largest circnlation of any country paper published in the State, and has more than three times the circulation of any other pa? per in Anderson County. We print and circulate regularly 1776 papers. Our listin the County has increased instead of dimin? ished, and we hope to receive a still greater increase during the coming fall. We are willing at any, time to verify the above by &h, inspection of our subscription book, or "our paper bills; or when desired, we will iurnish advertisers with an affidavit of the ?correctness of our statement as to the circu? lation of the Intelligences. BRIEF MEHTIOH. See the advertisement of Mrs. M. Lesser. Persons on the Savannah side will find the Rock Mills Store ready to supply their wants. Messrs. J. 8. Murray, Jr., of Anderson, and W. W. Brownj of Williamston, are students at Furman University this session from Anderson County. We are requested to announce thai there will be a meeting of the Executive Board of the Saluda Baptist Association at Bel ton on Saturday afternoon, the .6th of October. We would call attention to the advertise? ment of Messrs. Norris & Clarke. Peesons wishing to procure a first class sewing ma? chine on very reasonable terms would do well to consult them. Col. James A. Hoyt, editor of the Colum? bia Register, paid Anderson a short visit last week. Our people are always glad to have him in our midst, where he has labored so long and so faithfully. t A little colored child, about two years old, was drowed by falling into a tub of water, in Anderson, last week. It was playing about where washing had been done, and was dead when found. ? Mr. James McLees, a respected citizen of Rock Mills township,, died at his residence in this County, on Wednesday, the 13th inst. He leaves a large circle of relatives and friends who mourn his death. . Messrs. Sullivan & Co. have a few words to say in this paper about the Anderson market, which it will repay our subscribers to read. Their prices are astonishingly low, and show the advantages of Anderson as a market this season. When you come to town give them a call. V Sloan, Lee & Taylor always keep large stocks of Bacon, Flour, Molasses, Syrups, Salt, and a full line of goods at lowest living prices. You can save money by calling on them at their new store in Greenville, where Mr. R. L. Moobhead will be happy to wait upon you. 10?2 Mr. W. R. Richardson, a graduate of Wofford College, from the Saluda side of Anderson County, is pursuing a theological course at Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, with a view to entering the University of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. The advertisement of) Messrs. A. J. Stringer & Co. announce to their friends and customers that they are still engaged in the mercantile business at Belton, and will be pleased to see their old customers again this season. They have a large and com-! plete stock of goods, which they offer low for cash. Read the advertisement. A .change in the advertisement of the Emporium of Fashion arrived too late for insertion in this issue, but will appear next week. In-the meantime, we will state that it announces the arrival of a full stock of all lines of ladies1 goods calculated to fasci? nate or please the tastes of the most fas? tidious. Give the Emporium a call, and see for yourselves. We would ask attention of our merchants to the advertisement of Messrs. F. W. Wagener & Co., of Charleston, which ap ' pears elsewhere. We hope these gentlemen will receive a large share of trade from the up-country this season. v They are high toned, honorable gentlemen, arid sell groce ceries, fertilizers, &c., as low as can be bought in any market. The live grocery store of Ligon & Hill is still at the front, and is selling goods at prices as low as can^be afforded in any market in South Carolina. The members of this firm are thorough merchants, with enterprise and energy enough to compete with the prices offered in best markets. Do not neglect to give them a liberal share of patronage. The ladies of Pendleton intend having charades on to-morrow (Friday) evening at Maxwell's Hall, for the purpose of raising fund3 to re-cover St. Paul's Episcopal Church at that place. From the experience of the ladies managing this entertainment, and j their past success, all who are fortunate enough to be presnt on to-morrow evening may rest assured that they will spend an agreeable evening. Rev. Thomas F. Gadsden has been elected to the rectorship of Grace Church, in this place, and has signified his acceptance thereof. The Episcopal congregation will, therefore, in future enjoy the privilege of regular morning and afternoon services on the Sabbath. The location of Mr. Gadsden in our midst adds a polished and pleasant gentleman to the citizens of our town. The attention of our lady readers is direc? ted to the advertisement of the Ladies' Store, from which they will see that Miss Lizzie Williams has just returned from the North? ern markets, where she purchased a large and varied stock of dress goods and milli? nery. Now is the time to call andpurchase your fall and winter out-fits, for those who j purchase first will have the privilege of j selecting from the largest stock. Rev. H. F. Chrietzberg, the excellent pas? tor of the Methodist Episcopal Church at this place, requests us to announce that the services of his Church will be regularly re? sumed on next Sabbath morning. The con-' gregation will be glad to have their regular services again, although the cessation has been a brief one. Mr. Chrietzberg is an eloquent speaker and, though young, stands high among the ministers of his denomina? tion. We are indebted to Messrs. F. W. Wage? ner & Co., of Charleston, for a printed schedule of the freight rates from Charles? ton. They show very great reductions, and so far as^groceries, &c, are concerned, put us on an equality with the rates which Greenville has enjoyed. Messrs. Wagener & Co. have worked indefatigably for a re? duction of freights to the up-country for months, and our people are much indebted to them and other Charleston business men for the favorable change. .- The advertisement of Messrs. Sloan, Lee <fc Taylor, of Greenville, S. C, direct public attention to one of the most reliable and enterprising grocery and heavy dry goods establishments in upper Carolina. The firm is composed of gentlemen of fine experience and of the highestpersonal character. They have one of the largest and most complete stock of goods that can be found in Green? ville. Persons from this section who may trade in Greenville will find Mr. R. L. Moor head, formerly of this County, with this firm, and they can rely upon the most satis factory treatment from them. THE CIRCUIT COURT. The Civil Court will terminate this week. The cases have so far been unimportant, ex? cept the drainage case, in which the County Commissioners are sueing certain persons under the Drainage Act for assessments. This case is now on trial, and has been argued by Messrs. W. D. Evins and Jas. L. Orr for the defendants, and Col. J. N. Brown for the plaintiffs. It is not known what the verdict will be. Judge Northrop has made an excellent impression at this place. He has been assiduous and prompt in the discharge of his duties, and at the same time courteous and obliging. He is much liked. . The counsel for Orr Latimer, convicted of burglary, have appealed. The Judge sentenced Ransom Blackman, convicted of assault and battery, to two month's imprisonment or twenty-five dol? lars fine and the costs of the case. He paid .the fine. Robert Crow was found not guilty of as? sault and battery. The Strickland burglary trial ^occupied two days, and elicited the deepest interest on the part of the entire community. It was very ably argued by Messrs. J. E. Breazeale, B. P. Wbitner and Gen. S. Mc Gowan for the defense, and by Solicitor Cothran for the State. Judge Northrop de lived a fair and impartial charge, after which the jury retired, and remained out for about, four- hours. They found Wm. B. Strickland guilty of grand larceny, and Benjamin and Abner Strickland not guilty. The defendants counsel moved in arrest of judgment in the case of Wm. B. Strickland, and being overruled, appealed. EXCURSION TO CHARLESTON. Arrangements have been made by the railroad authorities for the sale of excursion tickets from all points in the upper portion of the State to Charleston and return at ex? ceedingly low rates. The sale of these tickets will begin at the several depots on Monday next, the first of October, and con? tinue until Saturday following, the sixth day of the month. Persons availing them? selves of these tickets will have to start be? tween Monday, the 1st, and Saturday, the 6th, of October. The tickets will be good to return at any time within ten days from the day they are sold, and parties holding them will be allowed to stop over in Colum? bia, either going or returning, but not at intermediate points. The price of tickets to Charleston and return will be as follows for this section: Points above Anderson and Williamston, $5.50, and points from Ander? son and Williamston to ChappeU's Depot, $5. These are very low rates of passage, indeed, and do not amount to as much as half the regular fare in one direction. The excursion is also very considerately arranged to occupy six days instead of one, thereby preventing the jam.which is incident to all ordinary excursions. This will afford our citizens a favorable opportunity for visiting our "City by the Sea," and will no doubt be embraced by large numbers of them. RAILROAD MEETING AT MILFORD'S. In accordance with the resolution of the Railroad Convention, Hon-James M. Lati? mer, the President of the Anderson and Au? gusta Railroad, has called a mass meeting of the friends of the enterprise, to be held at Milford's Store, in this County, on Satur? day the 6th of October next. It is earnestly desired that all the citizens within reach of the meeting will be present, as the enter? prise proposed is of the uttermost interest to every citizen of that portion of our County. The several committees appointed along the line of the road are expected to report their progress at this meeting, and speeches may be expected from Hon. J. Bradleyrof Abbeville, Dr. W. C. Brown, of Beiton, Col. E. M. Rucker, E. B. Murray and others, upon the subject of the proposed road. The meeting will be opened at 11 o'clock in the morning, and the ladies are also respectfully invited to attend. This meeting will be followed by another at Sherard's Store, the time and particulars of which will be announced at the meeting next week. Let every one attend these mass meetings, and thereby encourage this great enterprise in its inception. We clip the following from the Geneva (N. Y.) Gazette, knowing that it will be read with great pleasure by the subscribers to the Intelligencer, as the gentleman of whom it speaks has very many friends in this County, who are always pleased to hear the compliments which are paid to'him: Hon. B. F. Crayton, of Anderson, South Carolina, has been visiting in Geneva, a welcome guest at the home of John B. Dixon. His Teception among our people has been most cordial. His State could not have a better representative among us, as he is well advised on all branches of indus? try?in farming, mechanics, on fruits and flowers, grain and stock raising. &c. Two days this week he has been in attendance at the State Fair at Rochester, a guest of the "President and Executive Committee of the Society through introduction by ex-Presi den? James O. Sheldon and Mr. Robert. J. Swan. He minutely examined every article coming under his immediate observation, spending hours among the live stock, in the fruit and grain departments, and the floral exhibitions. The show is a very fine one, which Mr. Crayton fully appreciated. He will probably return to his Southern home early next week; we hope to see him often among us. SUNDAY SCHOOL MEETING AT BELTOH. The following report from Key. W. H. Strickland, Chairman of the committee, of arrangements for the first meeting of a Bap? tist Sabbath School Institute,- will give the programme of the meeting, which is to be held at Belton, beginning on the 5th of Oc? tober next: ^ Your committee deem a Sunday School Institute for the Sunday School workers of the Saluda Association a necessity among us. We recommend that a meeting be held for the purpose of organizing such an enter? prise, to begin in Baptist Church at Belton on Friday night, October 5th, to continue through Saturday and Sunday; that each Baptist Sunday School in the Saluda Asso? ciation be requested to send two delegates to this meeting, and that the committee now appointed shall be present and hold the said meeting.

Prank Mauldin to represent them in the Sunday School Institute, to be held at Belton on Friday night, Saturday and Sunday, Octo? ber 5th, 6th and 7th. Messrs E. B. Murray and Wm.

A Sunday School service will be held in the Baptist Church next Sunday at 4 p. m. Addresses are expected from R. F. Divver, L. P. Smith and J. E. Breazeale. The School will sing between the speeches. The Sunday Schools of the Town are all invited to be present, and the public gene? rally. Wm. Henry Strickland, Sup't, Baptist S. S. HO NE A PATH. The protracted meeting closed on Monday night last. Twenty-five members were added to the M. E. Church. Besides these quite a number will be added to the mem? bership of other churches. During the con? tinuance of the* meeting?eighteen days? a very deep religious feeling was manifest, and though the congregations were at all times large, good order prevailed through? out.Rev. W. H. Strickland is assisting Rev. R. W. Barts in a protracted meeting at Broadmouth Church.Mr. M. Nicely is making some repairs to the water station. Now, if the company will give us a new depot to match other improvements going on, everybody will be glad.Capt. S. M. Tribble was stricken with paralysis at Mt. Bethel Church on Friday last. Though reported dangerously ill, we hope he may soon recover.The Singing Convention at Mt, Bethel, we learn, was largely attended. "WILLIAMSTON. We embrace this opportunity^ furnish your readers with such news as we can gather relating to our village.In the first place, we have a new council, of which Mr. S. D. Deal, the proprietor of the hotel, is Intendant. Under their direction and su? pervision the streets?or rather roads?have been well worked, so far as we have seen. The plan pursued here is to work the road alone, and leave the sidewalks to be kept in order by private residents along the same.The bar-rooms have been closed, and peace and order prevail throughout the community.Mr. R. V. Acker has opened a store on the western side of the creek, and is engaged in the mercantile business. We hope he will meet with success.Capt. Ford, of Marion, has'ldcatcd in our village, and engaged in the mercantile business. He comes highly recommended, and has been for several years^the chief clerk in a large mercantile establishment in Marion. He is a high-toned gentleman, and an ac tive, intelligent and courteous merchant, who understands his business thoroughly. The other merchants are renovating their stocks of goods, and are endeavoring to make their price list please even the most captious.The Female College is in a flourishing condition.The Male Acade? my had thirty-one pupils in actual attend? ance.Yesterday Bishop Wightman preached, the eleven o'clock sermon in the Methodist Church. He selected as his text, 1st Thess., 5th, 18th?"In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." He maintained that the will of God is based upon rectitude, wisdom and goodness. He affirmed that it is the will of God concerning us that wc should pray without ceasing, give thanks in everything, and rejoice for evermore. He made a nice distinction between joy and happiness?the former depending upon our character and the latter upon our condition. In his peroration he made a beautiful and touching appeal to the youth of the congre? gation to obey the words of the text. His sermon was distinguished alike for depth of thought and beauty of figure. It evinced the scholar and the divine, and was deliv? ered in an eloquent and impressive manner. His venerable appearance constituted much to the effect of the effort. W. L. M. TOWNVILLE Townville merchants are beginning to look up, as once in a while now they get a glimpse at a greenb- *c dollar.Mr. La? fayette Farmer, formerly of Greenville, has located in this place, where he is engaged in the mercantile business. He occupies the now store-room on Main street.Corn crops in this section, with an increased acre? age, are certainly much better than usual; while cotton, though somewhat injured by the drought, Is thought to be a fair average. .The schools of this township have been steadily on the wane since the suspension of the free term, until recently, when it appears that, with a single exception, they have prematurely dried up.The indica? tions portending bad weather increased un? til last Wednesday, the 19th inst.. when it culminated in the equinoctial gale. The rain fell almost incessantly for forty-oight hours, while a steady easterly wind, blow? ing cold and wintry-like, reminded us that over-coats must, ere long, supply the place of linen dusters, and that the season of straw hats was 'bout spent.Townville is wanting a high school. Efforts are now be? ing made to secure the services of Mr.- Da? vid P. Verner as teacher for the coming year.The work on the Townville (Pres? byterian) Church is progressing finely, and, ere long, it will be a complete, new, and ele? gant house of worship, which will not only add to the appearance of the town, but will reflect greatly upon *he -moral energy and Christian perseverance of the denoniination in this oommunity.The Baptist brethren of this place have also, within the shortest time imaginable, perfected measures by which to commence the building of a new house. Already the old, dilapidated build? ing in which the Rev. J. K. Mendenhall but a few days ago labored so zealously, and discoursed so eloquently, has been ruthles ly torn from its foundations, and upon the same site a new church is now in process of erection.The repairs on the free bridge across Seneca at Earle's, with the exception of bolting, are completed. The contractor is only waiting the arrival of the bolts, when, in a few days, the work will be en? tirely finished. Competent judges pro? nounce this work a safe and substantial job, which, it is hoped, will preclude the liabili? ty of incurring any more useless expendi? ture of the peoples' money here for at least some time to come.The recent revivals of religion in this vicinity have wrought a wonderful effect upon the minds of our people, and, it is hoped, made a lasting im? pression upon the moral status of this com? munity.The colored people of this, vi? cinity have also had a series of enthusiastic meetings, extending through a period of several weeks past. Much interest has been manifested in their meetings, and if prompt? ed by the right .spirit, they will doubtless result in much good. G. N. C. B. MARKETS. Anderson, S. C, Sept. 26.

Editor Anderson Intelligencer: A humorous writer says, "If-you want, to do well in the music business, have a top note." My verdict is, "If yon want to do well in the fashion business?i. e.t if you wish to be fashionable?wear beads." Have them ou your bonnet, shower them on your costume, wear them peeping forth from beneath your dress, bestrew plentifully on your stock? ings, and even on your shoes. The beads just mentioned are bronzed, or made to glitter with metallic effect, the latter style being the clair de lune jet, of which we shall see and hear a good deal I before the expiration of the winter. Bronze will be the leading color. 'Tis going to be bronze, bronze, bronze?in silks, dress goods, millinery, and I know not what. Now, "why is this thus?" one asks, and I answer for several reasons. Firstly, because the various bronze shades harmonize so well with the differ? ent yellows now so fashionable. Then, again, bronze is a handsome color, ana affords a variety from brown, on which the changes have been rung so everlast? ingly that, despite its many advantages, we have grown somewhat tired of it. Running the gauntlet of colors over, we find that bronze is more generally suita? ble than blue, green, plum or grey, arid therefore while we shall see all the above hues patronized, yet bronze will be the color. dress materials. ' Is it a result of woman's rights that dress materials look rough enough to suit so many Amazons going to war? Be that as it may, it is a fact that they do. Yet, the vanity of the sex comes out in the bright interminglings of color which are apparent?gay dashes or dot tings (maybe both) of red, blue or yellow scattered broadcast and at random over the goods, as one would sow wheat in a field. The ground work. may be plain, or, again, it may be wrought in mosaic figures, but regularity of design is thus set at naught and counteracted. New silks also are devised in similar fashion, and both come under the heading of bourette goods. But should some doubt? ing soul exclaim, "You have just said that bronze is the leading color 1" So I have, and so I do now. Let me explain. Bourette goods being so rough need an offsett, ana here comes in your bronze, effective in plainly woven woolens and silks, which will appear as parts of com? bination costumes. Standard materials are among the first importations, and as for general wear nothing is so desirable as black. We find that special attention is paid to the better class of black goods. In cashmeres the "Grand Opera" brand is preferred by purchasers of discrimina? tion ; and in mohairs the "Beaver" brand is excellent, being silk finished, and a fast black, while the sable brand of "Turkish Brilliantive" possesses the highest degree of brilliancy, and is the most beautiful black lustre goods ever imported. millinery. We are rushing after satin and plush with the avjdity of a widower "along in years," who seeks to fascinate a girl of sixteen. Velvet is classed as thoroughly, respectable, but who wants to dress "re? spectably ?" We want something stylish ?something which is new, ana which causes Mrs. A?? over the way to look at us and feel iealous. In millinery, es? pecially, sparkles the clair de lune jet 'Tis everywhere?placed on plain foun? dations, bustling on aigrettes, hanging as petals, bestrewn on leaves, glistening on moss, peeping forth on braids, gleaming on buckels, and giving out changing hues with every change of light. Shapes are various?with square or slightly pointed crowns, and narrow brims, ana foliage is massed in heavy montures, occasionally lightened by flowers. costumes. Princess polonaises lead, but close fitting basques and overskirts are not discarded, or, again, we find the prhicess dress all in one. One of the handsomest designs in the last named style is the "Davenport" dress, having the front draped across, quite low down, and a plaited train inserted about midway down the back, producing a fan-like effect. The "Cyanna" polonaise is also novel and distinguished, being a unique design in which the waist, both back and front, is partially shirred and confined in a deep yoke. The "Camille" basque is a distingue design, tight fitting, with the trimming arranged to simulate a vest, and the neck cut low and shawl shaped. The "Janita" overskirt is irregular in arrangement, and very stylish, the front being disposed on the right in deep diag? onal folds, while the left side is plain and lapping over the right at the belt. The closely clinging drapery, at present fashionable, demands a support for the dress other than that afforded by the ordinary underskirt, and hence we find different kinds of tournures designed which combine both elegance and com? fort. Perfection has been reached in the "Queen," which, besides being very stylishly shaped, possesses a durability and elasticity, combined with a gossamer lightness never before equalled. It is entirely new, made without pockets, clasps/buttons, or other metallic device, and the tapes are sewed to the wires by a lockstitch sewing machine of novel construction, made especially for this purpose. One will be sent, post paid, on receipt of $1.50 by J. L. Colby & Co, 425 Broome Street. LUCY CARTER. Ask Yourself these Questions.
