???.-II....-- , I II II THE INTELLIGENCER, LOCAL MATTERS. ^ THE GOVERNOR'S RECEPTION. THE TO WH ABLAZE WITH ENTHUSIASM ABD SPLENDIDLY ILLUMINATED. On the arrival of Governor Hampton in Anderson on Tuesday night, a large con . courso of people assembled at the depot to welcome him. The Palmetto Band, Cap? tain Allen's Company, a procession of col? ored men bearing torches and about two thousand citizens escorted him to the pub? lic square. The houses "were brilliantly il? luminated, and upon the square the dark? ness was completely dissipated by the thou? sands of bright lights which g'ittered in the ' windows of all the buildings from basement toiittic. The scene was a most brilliant 'arid cheering one, fitly representing the hearty spirit with which th* Governor's /visit to Anderson was welcomed by all of ocr citizens, and, to add to the significance of the compliment, every window and piazza upon the square, whiph could be oc? cupied, was filled with the fair daughters of the town, who had assembled to witness 'the triumphal reception accorded the peo? ple's hero in the person of Governor Hamp - ton. Upon the public square the proces? sion was baited, and the Governor was com? pelled to ascend the Court House steps in ? response to the hearty calls of the people for the purpose of making a. speech. He was introduced in an appropriate speech of wel? come by Gen. W. W. Humphreys, and, in leaponse, thanked the people of Anderson for the hearty welcome extended him, and said that ascending the Court House steps brought to his mind the fact that he hid made his first speech after the surrender in that bnilding.to a meeting of the citizens of - Anderson. He was on his way to tie moan tains with his spirits crushed by tie* disastrous end o. the war. and was stopped at this point to speak to the people of An? derson. Although deprtssed in spirits, he was not tLci without" hope, and had pre? dicted a bright and prosperous future for ' South Carolina, For the long dork years which followed that period, it seemed that his hopes for the future 7-ere not to be re? alized. He, however, had confidence in the future, and knew that the people of South Carolina would rise superior to their joes- osd regain the proud eminence then patriotism and their honor deserve for them. Thu day of deliverance has come. Our gov? ernment is restored to our people, and if they are wise it 'will not depart from their oontroL He regretted that he could not say more on this occasion, but as he had spoken frequently along the line during the day, and was to address the people of An? derson on the morrow, he excused himself and bid them good night. ?' "General E. W. Moisa was next called for, and introdnced'.by Gen. Humphreys. He expressed pleasure at meeting the people of Anderson, whom he '.had wished to meet during the late political canvass. He also paid a high tribute to Governor Hampton, and made an eloquent and pointed speech of ahsat fifteen minutes, which was well received und heartily cheered. The Governor and General Moiae were then driven as the guests of General Hum? ph ?ys to his residence. Itaring the whole of these proceedings Captain Smith's Artillery was firing salutes to the Governor, and the most unbounded enthusiasm prevailed.. The reception was a brilliant affair, a complete success, and a plttuant harbinger of the grand day which followed. SXUB OP COL S. S. HTTiL, We regret to announce the death of Col. Richard 8. Hill, which occurred at his resi J donee in this town on last Sunday after a loDg and painful illness. His death, though long looked-for, brings sorrow and grief to many households in Anderson County. Col. Hill was a genial gentlemen, affable disposition and pleasant manners, and gath? ered around him many friends wherever he went.. He was born on the 16th of Decem? ber, 1822, sear Anderson ville in this County. In early life his father removed to near 'Craft's Ferry, where he remained until his first raoniajj8r when he removed to Monte? video, Hart County, Ga., and lived there until after the late war, when he removed to Anderson, 3. C, where he has since re? sided. He received his principal education, in the town of Anderson from the late Wes? ley Leverett. Among his classmates and students were Ex.-Govemor Brown of Geor? gia and the- late Hon. James L. Orr. He was ir. member of the Georgia Convention, and advocated the ordinance of secession. At the commencement of the wax he was ap? pointed aid-de-camp to the Governor, and rendered valuable services to Go v. Brown in the organization of the militia of the State. He entered the active service in op? posing Gen. Sherman's march through the State, and was engaged in many battles. He locarne a member of the Methodist Church in early live and continued so until his death. The funeral services were performed by Revs. Hl F.' Chrietzbcrg and D. E. Frierson at- Roberts' Church on Monday morning, after which the solemn burial service of the Masonic fraternity was performed, and the -xvmeins of the deceased interred in that Church yard, which contains the tombs of a largo number of his family who bare died before him. jtfi'-i ? , 1 , -. no AID FIRE. Lasv Sunday was the most boisterous day Jhat ire have experienced this year. The wind came' tm the northwest, blowing al? most a perfee hurricane until a late hour at night. The day previous was its complete antipode, mfid and bland, so that numbers of persons throughout this and upper counties had been engaged in burning off brush, sedge fields and log piles, and the wind of Sunday came upon them so sud? denly und so fiercely that it picked up the Bmocldering embers and scattered them broadcast over the adjacent woods, setting fire in numerous places to the leaves and brush, which were as dry as tinder. These flames spread rapidly, and burned furiously, causing great consternation, danger and anxiety. An immense amount of forest land'was; burnt over, and thousands of panels of fencing destroyed. Several hous? es. were threatened by the devonring ele? ment, and only saved by the most deter? mined and persistent efforts. Up to this time we hare beard of no dwelling house nor private building which has been de? stroyed, but New Prospect Church, five or ?ix miles vest of this place was laid in ashes, even, the grave yard fencing being destroyed. The citizens of the surrounding country were many of them off at church, and the few who were at home fonnd it all they conld possibly do to oave their own dwellings. The wildest rumors prevailed on Snnday. All portions of the Connty, however, have been heard from except the Saluda dde, from which conflicting and uncertain rumors are still received. Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup is fast taking the place of all the old fashioned Cough reme? dies. It never fails to relieve the most vio? lent cold, and for throat diseases it is inval? uable.

Pianos at the McSmith Music House for $190, Greenville, S. C. t We are indebted to Mr. W. W. Keys for the report of the speeches on last Wedacs day, which we publish to- day. Mr. Laboon's blacksmith shop, in Brnshy Creek, was burned on last Monday night. The fire originated accidentally. Everything in the shop was consumed. We are requested to announce that the Grange Association will convene with Town Creek Grange on Friday before the fourth Saturday in April. A full attendance of the members is requested. The members of the Bowling Green light Dragoons respectfully nominate L. E. Camp? bell for Lieutenant-Colonel of the Eastern Regiment of Cavalry of Anderson County. We are requested to announce that return tickets, good for three days, will be rold to the following points hereafter at the prices annexed: Pendleton. 90 cents; Seneca City, $1.80; Walhalla, $2.40. We are informed that the order for the election of field officers in Gen. Humphreys' Brigade will not be issued until after the meeting of the officers of the Savannah Regiment on next Monday. We have been requested to state that the Union Meeting of the 3rd District will be held with Mountain Creek Church begin? ning on Friday, in consequence of the burn? ing of New Prospect Church. Mr. Arnstein has returned to Anderson from New York, bringing his bride with bim. We are pleased to see him back again, and wish him all the happiness and prosperity be desires in his matrimonial life. Maj. Larkin. Newton, of Garvin township, has been uppointed by Governor Hampton a Trial-Justice for Anderson County, under the amended act, recently passed by the Leg? islature, increasing the Trial-Justices of the County. The dedication of the Baptist Church at Townville on last Sunday was performed in the presence of a very large congregation. Rev. W. Hi 8trickland preached a very able dedicatory sermon, and all of the services were solemn and interesting. . We have been asked to request a Meeting of all the commissioned officers of the West? ern Cavalry Division of Anderson County to assemble in the Courthouse on next Mon? day, Saleday, at 12 o'clock, for the purpose of consulting about things connected with their commands. A heavy hail-storm passed over Ander? son to-day at half-past twe lve o'clock, com? ing from a westerly direction. The hail was upon an average not quiteas large as a partridge egg, but it lasted as long, and there was as much of it, as we ever saw. It did not do any serious damage, however, except perhaps to a few ea-ly vegetables. The Greenville companies evinced the most thorough training and discipline in their drill on last Wednesday. Both were as near .perfect in their execution of the various parts of the infantry tactics as com? panies generally get to be, and their uni? forms presented a very handsome appear? ance. They are well efficered, and the verdict of the people of Anderson is, that they are a very handsome set of gentlemen. Capt. Allen's Company favored the citi? zens of Anaerson with a dress parade on last Friday afternoon upon the public square. They presented a fine appearance in uniform, and showed great proficiency in drilling for the experience they have had. Oar yonng men should take more interest in this Company, and seek to increase its numbers, and make it the equal of any Company in the State. On Tuesday nij;ht as Governor Hampton was passing Bolton on the train, salutes were fired, and in the absence of caimou anvils were used for that p orpose, and after being shot several times, one of them burst and the pieces flew in every direction, one of them striking a colored man standing some two hundred yards off in the back. At first it was feared the accident would prove fatal, but vre are. glad to learn that the wounded man is improving. The kitchen of Capt. M. B. Williams, who resides near Piercetown, in this County, was consumed by fire on last Sunday night, and most of its contents destroyed. The burn? ing was supposed to be the work of an in? cendiary, as persons were heard moving about the place a short time before the fire was discovered. The perpetrator of this outrage onght to be ferreted out It would be a good instance in which to apply the new law of hanging for arson. The order preserved throughout the day in Anderson on.Wednesday cannot be too highly commended. There was very little drinking, no boisterous conduct and no loud swearing. Not a single arrest wan made during the whole day by the town police force. The people of Anderson County did themselves honor in their great political and military demonstration, but their highest honor consisted in the excel? lent behavior they observed throughout the entire day. Rev. William P. Martin, one of the oldest Baptist ministers in the Sal. uda Association, died suddenly one day last week whilst en? gaged in labor in the field. He was for a number of years one of the leading ministers of the Association, having charge of some of the largest churches in the County. He was energetic and devoted to '.he work of his ministry, and until his faculties were im? paired by age, untiring in his* labors, and commanded the confidence and respect of the community. Mr- W. P. Cook, who shot a colored wo? man a few weeks ago, surrendered himself to the authorities on Wednesday the 20^ inst., and immediately proceeded to Pick ens upon a writ cf habeas cx.Tpus, which was heard before Judge Mackoy, and granted bail, was fixed nt five thousand dollars. Mr. Cook gave bond in this sum for his ap? pearance at the June term of the Circuit Court for this County. Maj. John B, Moore, of Anderson County, represents Mr. Cook in this case. The entertainment in The Masonic Hall on last Wednesday evening by the "Thes? pian Corps" wus quite a su>xess, and was enjoyed by a great many of our citizens. The music was very fine, and the drama? "the Last Loaf"?was rendered in a man? ner highly creditable to all the parties in? terested, each of whom evinced no little talent for acting. It is the general opinion that it was the best caste and acted piece zver given to the public of Anderson by amateurs. The net proceeds of the enter? tainment amount to about $90, which will be presented to the Anderson Palmetto 3and. A literary club was organized last week, under the name of the Anderson Literary Club. The officers elected were?Col. E. M. Rucker President, Capt. John W. Daniels 1'ice-President, Mr. R. A. Rcid Treasurer and F. C. Whitner Secretary. The Club will meet at the Courthouse on the evenings of the first and third Fridays of even* month. The meetings will he public and the citizens are Invited to attend?the ladies especially. The subject for discussion for the first meet? ing, April 5th,?"Should capital punish? ment be abolished, save for the crime of murder?"?will be debated on the affirma- j live by Measr.-. John E. Brcazeale and Jas. W. Brown, and on the negative by Messrs. J. C. C. Featherston and T. Y). Kennedy. There will be a selected piece road by Major B. F. Whilner. One of the most pleasant portions of "Wednesday's proceedings was the visit of the Greenville Guards and tho Butler Guards from Greenville. The gentlemen of these companies came over to contr bute to our meeting and pay their respects to the Gov? ernor, without any expectation of even re I ceiving entertainment here during their stay. Their courteous conduct and gentle? manly course has made our citizens enter? tain the highest respect and most kindly feelings towards them. We regret that the circumstances connected with the succes? sion of the political meeting upon the re? view prevented our people from showing their appreciation of the conduct of the Greenville Companies. The- memory of the friendly bearing of these companies will al? ways be cherished by the military of An? derson, and we hope we may have a visit from these companies on some occasion when we can pay them the attention they deserve. On last Tuesday evening Mr. J. Belton Watson's horses became frightened near the Baptist Church in Auderson and ran away, breaking the tongue of the buggy. They then began kicking, and struck his mother, Mrs. Martha Watson, upon the chin, in? flicting a painful wound, and striking her youngest child, little D. M. Watson, upon the cheek, breaking his check bone and upper jaw bone, and mashing his face terri? bly. Physicians were immediately sum? moned and cared ior the wound. Several largo pieces of bone were removed, and everything done for the relief of the little sufferer which was possible. The strange j part of the accident is that Mr. J. Belton Watson and wife, who were npon the front seat, remained unhurt, and his mother and brother, who were upon the back seat, were both kicked. The little boy's wounds were at first considered fatal, but we learn that it is now thought he will recover, although his face is terribly swollen and congested. We hope his recovery may be more com? plete and more rapid than is now expected. FENCE LAW NOTICE. There seems to be some misunderstanding in regard to the time the new fence law went into operation, and, therefore, the County Commissioners again give notice that the whole County is included under the late Act, and the law went into opera? tion on the day of its approval. 0. H. P. Fast, J. C. Gantt, Sajt?el Browne, County Commissioners. Marth 28,1878. Williamston, March 18, 1878. Ma. Editor : I notice in your issue of re? cent date a communication over the signa? ture of "B. Ware," in reference to the mis? doings of .the Town Council of William? ston. We do not wish, by any means, to enter into a controversy with this noted correspondent, but only wish to call the attention of the citizens to a few sad mis? takes which !ae has, unthonghtedly we sup? pose, made in his lengthy missive. The gentleman has explained and expounded the charter of Williamston in a vory deci? ded manner. He say8 : "The charter says explicitly that an ad valorum tax shall be levied on all property." It doesn't say any such thing. It says: "A tax of 30 cents on the 100 dollars worth, or less, may be levied on real estate, at the discretion of the Council, provided it is assessed properly; and die Council shall also have power to tax merchandise, carriages, dogs, &c. In the next place he says: "The Council have exempted themselves from taxation." This is a worse mistake, if possible, than the other. I being Clerk of the Council my? self at the time of the assessment, and also of the collection of taxes, positively say that those of the Council who owned real estats were among the first to come forward and pay their taxes. There are many other mistakes (I will call them) which I could mention, if necessary, but will leave them for another time. And now a little advice to Mr. or Miss "B. Ware," or whoever that perst-nage may be: Dear friend, the next time you undertake to "go for" a Town Council", be sure and read the charter carefully, and get permis? sion and raise the lid of the coffers, and be s are who has and who has not paid their town tax. Respectfully, T. B. CRYMES. Mildness conquers?aud hence it is that the yet positive influence of Dr. Bull's Buby Syrup overcomes so quickly the disorders of babyhood. ANNOUNCEMENTS.

A \ f proportion of the American peo? ple art io-aay dying from the effects of Dys? pepsia or disordered liver. The result of these diseases upon the masses of intelligent and valuable people is most alarming, mak? ing life actually a burden instead of a pleas? ant existence of enjoyment and usefulness as it ought to he. There is no good reason for this, if you will only throw aside preju? dice and skepticism, take the advice of Drug ?"sts and your friends, and try one bottle of reen's August Flower. Your speedy relief is certain. Millions of bottles of this med? icine have been given away to try its virtues, with satisfactory results in every case. You can buy a sample bottled for 10 cents to try. Three doses will relieve the worst case.? Positively sold by all Druggists on the Wes? tern Continent. _ Next Town Ahead where they loan yon a dollar and chalk it down till to-morrow, for a bottle of Mf.rrell's Hei'atine for the Liver. The enormous expense of importing the ingre? dients of this great liver medicine into this country, is why pur Druggists, Simpson, Roid it Co., sell but one sample bottlo to the same person for ten cents; but as there are fifty doses in the large size bottles, it is cheap enough after all at two cents per dose, for a medicine that has never been known to fail in the cure of dyspopsiu and all diseases of the liver. It has never failed in the cure of liver complaint when taken as directed, no matter of how long standing the disease. It cures Chills and Fever, Constipation of the Bowcb, Dyspepsia and Liver Coiupluint. Sample bottles ten cents; regular ?izc, fifty doses, $1.00. The April number of the Eclectic Magazine is remarkable, both for the high average ex? cellence of its contents and for the number of special papers which separately challenge attention. There are no Icsb than sixteen articles, besides the four editorial depart? ments; and every taste will find something to gratify it. "The March of an English Generation through Life" is a highly inter? esting und profoundly suggestive resume of English vital statistics; 7,The New Star which Faded into Star-Mist" is one of Mr. Proctor's always instructive studies in pop? ular astronomy; ?.nd Prof. Goldwin Smith's paper on '"The Proposed Substitutes for Re? ligion" deals with a subject of inexhaustible interest. Apropos of the war, there are two notably good descriptive papers?one enti? tled "Over the Balkans with General Gourko," and the other, "Constantinople," by James Bryce. The latter has already become famous in England. Other note? worthy articles an;, the beginning of a scries by Taino on "France ljefore the Outbreak of the Revolution; a timely biographical sketch of "Count Cavour;" "Professor Huxley on the Degeneracy of Modem Opin? ion;" "Keats' Love-Letters;" and a thrill? ing narrative of "A Rida for Life." A sketch (with steel portrait) of Professor Marsh; three or four poems; additional chapters of Mr. B ack's story, "Macleod of Dare;" and well-lillededitoriuldepartments complete a number of exceptional variety and interest.
