We trust that his visit will prove benefi Last Thursday at Little River Church, in Abbeville County, Mr. J. A. Burgess, of this County, and Mr. W. L. Young, of Abbeville County, met with a painful ac? cident, the latter, it is feared, being fatally hurt. They were riding together in a buggy," when their mule became fright? ened and ran away, throwing both of them out. It is a good idea now while farmers have comparatively some idle time for them to go around among their neighbors and compare the system of conducting Jrour farm with theirs. There, is much to earn by such comparison which will ben? efit any farmer. It will develop new ideas and show you where you can make improvements on your past management. On the first page of the Intelligencer an advertisement of Wilhite's Eye Water appears. Read it carefully. As sore eyes are prevalent throughout the County just now, we advise those afllicted. with the disease to give this medicine a trial. Messrs. Wilhite & Wilhite guarantee it to cure every case. Tho writer has seen the medicine tried, and knows it will do everything claimed for it. Last Thursday morning Mr.-Smith and . Mrs. Anna Darricott were coming to the city in a buggy, and when nearly opposite Mr. E. A. Bell's:residence, on the Pendleton road, the mule that they were driving made a sudden jump, throwing Mr. Smith out and painfully bruising his face. The mule started, off at a rapid pace, with Mrs. Darricott in the buggy and the lines dragging on the ground. She concluded to jump from the buggy, and in doing so met with a serious acci? dent, breaking both bones of her left leg at the ankle joint. The mule was stopp? ed a short distance down the road. Mrs. Darricott was brought to the city, where she was attended by Dr. P. A. Wilhite. The pio nie at Mountain Creek on last Saturday was a most pleasant affair, and congregated several hundred ladies and gentlemen. In the morning interesting and instructive Sabbath School addresses were delivered by Col. E. M. Rncker and Rev. Mike McGee, after which the chair? man of the committee of arrangements, Mr. J. L. Glenn, announced that there would be a recess of one hour for dinner, which had been most abundantly prepar? ed and was most sumptuously served. After dinner the meeting was again called to order by Mr. Glenn, and speeches upon the subject of prohibition were made by Messrs. L. P. Smith and E. B. Murray for and Col. E. M. Rucker against prohibition. At the conclusion of the discussion a vote on the subject was taken and every person in the house, with perhaps three or four exceptions, voted in favor of prohibition. There were noue who voted against it. It is with deep regret that we chronicle the death of Miss Carrie M. McFall, the interesting and accomplished daughter of Mr. W. A. McFall, of Varennes Town? ship, in this County, which occurred on Tuesday morning at the residence of Mr. Jas. W. Finley, in Greenvilla, where she was visiting friends. She had been sick but seventeen days with typhoid fever. Miss McFall was 18 years of age, and possessed a most amiable disposition and a cultured mind. She was a member of the Presbyterian Church in Greenville, with which she united last year while a student at College in that city. The tid? ings of her death will carry sadness and sorrow to many relatives and admiring friends. Her romains were brought to Anderson and interred in Jthe Presbyte? rian Cemetery, after appropriate funeral services conducted by Rov. D. E. Frier son, D. D., on Wednesday morning, in the presence of a large concourse of the friends and acquaintances of the deceased. Be union of Company F. The reunion of Company F, 24th Regi? ments. C. V., according to announcement, held their first re-union since the war at Moffettsville, in Corner Township, on Wednesday, 12th in?t. The day was all that could be desired, despite the fact that Old Sol's rays were felt very perceptibly. The fact that this Company was raised entire! v in that section made the people feel a deeper interest in the occasion, and nothing was left undone that would tend to the comfort and pleasure of the veter? ans, thirty-seven of whom, with their old Colonel, were present. The crowd iu at? tendance was variously estimated at from 600 to 1,000 persons. A neat stand had been erected for the accommodation of the speakers and numerous seats provid? ed for the audience. When the hour for the addresses to be delivered arrived, the survivors of the Company were formed in line, and, under command of Capt. C. S. Beaty, marched to the stand. Sergt. J. W. Sherard carry? ing the battle-flag of the 24th Regimentat the head of tho Company. Addresses were delivered by Maj. John B. Moore, Messrs. R. P. Clinkscales and A. J. Watt, and Gen. Ellison Capers. These addresses were very interesting, and were highly appreciated by all pres? ent. After the addresses a bountiful and most sumptuous dinner was spread, which every one enjoyed most heartily. After dinner, the survivors of Company F, spent the afternoon in carefully revising the roll, Gen. Capers calling tho name of every man on the list, and making a record of the date of his mustering into service, his wounds, death, or other features of his record. Tho Company went into service iu Jan? uary, 18G2, with over one hundred names on its roll, and from that tiuie on to the surrender one hundred aud sixty-fi vo men served in its ranks. Of these sixty-eight were killed in battle, mortally wounded, or died of disease during tho war; thirty survived their wounds; thirteen have died since tho war, and fifty-four are still living. Of the latter some twelve or four? teen have removed from the County or State, and tho rest are living in the Coun? ty. Thero are few names on the roll op? posite to which there is not tho record of a wound. Tho gathering together of these facts doubtless brought hack to tho mind of each survivor present many pleasant, as well as sad, incidents. A resolution was adopted requesting Gen. Capers to furnish tho Intelligencer and Journal with a copy of tho revised roll, with a request to publish the same. Tho re-union of Company F will long be remembered b3* those who were pres? ent, while to the survivors of the Compa? ny the occasion was one or intense pleas? ure. These reunions of old comrades bring up the trials and dangers through which they have passod and tho seuse of duty dono, filling the mind with tho most satisfying emotions. Tho prcKcnco of Geri. Capers, iu whom there beats no nobler or more patriotic heart, was vory gratifying to tho survi? vors. Ho coinmandod tho 24th Regiment for a long time, and tho interest ho maui festod in the reunion evinced the fact that he had not lost any of his old patriotic zeal, nor had he forgotten what a gallant band of followers ho had in the great struggle. His speech is very highly com? plimented by all who heard it. We re? gret that we have been unable to obtain a report or synopsis of tho speech for publi? cation. A big stock Cassimors and Jeans just received. Come and see our Virginia Cassimers. C. F. Jones & Co. The County Normal. The Teachers' Normal Institute for this County closed its session last Saturday. The exercises throughout the week were attended by a large crowd of interested spectators, who, together with the teacher pupils, seemed to deeply regret that the exercises could not be prolonged several weeks. Indeed, the only objection we have heard urged against the Normal was that its session was not long enough. Our worthy School Commissioner will know better next time how to please the teachers. As this was the first Normal we have ever had in the County, it was more of an experiment than anything else. It was a success, and the benefits to be derived from it cannot be foretold. The Eractical knowledge and new ideas gained y those teachers in attendance will be perceived in the improvement and rapid advancement of the pupils under their charge for years to come. Those teachers in the County who did not attend missed a most excellent opportunity for self improvement. We again extend our congratulations to Col. Clinkscales for the success that has crowned his efforts. His zeal and interest in the educational cause increases every day, and now that he has made a success of the first Normal, we know he will arrange to have one every Summer as long as he remains in office. On Friday afternoon the City Council extended an invitation to the officers of the Institute to take a drive over the city, The invitation was accepted, and that afternoon several carriages were in readi? ness, and the officers enjoyed a delightful drive, in charge of Mayor Tolly and Aldermen Fant, Farmer and Mauldin. The same afternoon a large number of the teachers who had been in attendance upon the Institute met and passed |the following resolutions: ? Resolved, That the thanks of tho Teach? ers' Institute are hereby tendered to our respected and worthy Commissioner, Col. J. 6. Clinkscales, for his arduous endeav? ors in behalf of the Teachers of the Coun? ty, and for the unmeasured success with which he has met. Resolved, That we highly appreciate the earnest labors of our obliging and effi? cient Teachers?Prof. Morrison. Dr. Lan? der and Miss MoCants; and that their services will ever be held in kind remem? brance by us. Resolved, That in token of our apprecia? tion of the work done here, we insist on a two weeks session next Summer. Resolved, That we hereby thank Maj. Jos. VanHolt Nash, Atlanta, General Southern Agent for D. Appleton & Co., N. Y., for the Teachers' Note Books which he kindly gave the members of the Institute. Resolved, That a copy of these resolu? tions be printed in the Anderson papers, the Seminary Leaflet and the Naiad. Roberts' Improved Cotton. Last Monday morning we had tho pleasure of visiting the farm of Mr. Jas. H. Roberts, about two and one-half miles West of the city. Mr. Roberts bought this plantation, which contains 108 acres, a few years ago. Every one who knew the place considered the land almost worthless, as It was about worn out and had . merous deep gullies running in almost every direction. By judicious management and a liberal use of fertil? izers,be has succeeded in getting the land np to a good state of cultivation, and to? day has as fine a crop of corn and cotton on it as is generally seen in this country. The main object of our visit, however, was to see Mr. Roberts' cotton crop. Three or four years ago Mr. Roberts and his father were walking over one of his cotton fields, when they noticed a fine stalk with unusually large bolls on it They were so favorably impressed with the appearance of the stalk, that they con? cluded to keep its seed separate from the rest. This was done, and next season Mr. Roberts planted a row of considera? ble length with these seed. At the same time he planted three other popular va? rieties in as many rows along the sido of it, putting in considerable fertilizer and using the same amount under each. When this commenced to mature, he in? duced several prominent farmers to look at it. They at once noticed the difference between his cotton and the other three varieties, and gave it the name of "Rob? erts' Improved." Mr. Roberts had many applications for the seed, and last year sold his entire crop at from $1.50 to $2.00 per bushel. He has twelve or fifteen acres in this cotton this year, and good judges say if the seasons continue favor? able he will average a bale to the acre, some of it yielding a bale and a half. It is undoubtedly the best cotton we have ever seen growing in this County. In one field we picked out an average stalk and counted ninety bolls on it, besides the squares wod blooms. Nearly all the stalks have four and five limbs almost as large as the stalk itself. These limbs are fruited right out to the end, and the bolls on an average are as large as hen eggs, the majority of them containing five locks each. In one field Mr. Roberts has made a very fair test of his seed with the Peter kin variety. Side by side he has planted two rows of his cotton and two of the Peterkin variety, putting the same amount of fertilizer under each and giv? ing both the same attention. The most careless observer can go into that field to? day and tell at a glance that Roberts' Im? proved is the best cotton. On some land in this County we have no doubt that this cotton would yield two bales to the acre. Mr. Roberts is a progressive young far? mer, and we venture that at no distant day his seed will be a very popular varie? ty all over the South. It will repay any one to go out to his farm and see his pres? ent crop._ Reunion of Ore's Regiment. Mb. Editor : The Survivors of Orr's Regiment of Rifles propose a reunion in Anderson, S. C, on September 10, 1835. This reunion was originally moved for by Company "G," at their reunion at Abbe? ville C. H., and was seconded by Compa? ny "K" at their reunion at Honea Path.
