We know, that this commu-1 nity always responds heartily to any ap- j 1 peal in behalf of a worthy object. Cer- j J?' tainly it is a laudable ambition to have; y1 our company well uniformed and equip-11,1 ped upon this important occasion, and we} 1 look for a hearty response to their appeal.! soi In addition to a substantial and elegant, the supper there will be a varied programme oal of entertainment. Fortune telling, cigar ) selling, lemonade wells, dower girls, an, sweet epistles from the post otlke, etc., We etc. But perhaps the most interesting ]>erformancf will bo the voting lor the , most popular young lady in town.

This bcinir tiie meeting lor the election of oflieers Mr. j W. A. Leo was chosen as President, with | ('apt. J. W. Perrin to assist him as Vicej ra' President. This meeting was looked forward to with great pleasure, by the mem- 1 hers of the Club, as Mr. Burt had con- ri\ wilted to reud his essay on George Mc-lsei Durtie, at this time, ami knowing the cs-1 j sayist and the subject lo be handled tho to members expected a rare treat, in which i is Mr. Burt did not disappoint them, for hej honored the Club first by reading the es i. ' say, as promised, and by showing that he j . lmd bestowed much time nnd thought on his subject. He traced the distinguish] ' orator and statesman from his humble hf birth place to his school and college days,! n'! up to his proud position in the Senate! ! Chamber, wltere he was acknowledged to j as l>e without a peer in debate and oratory.) ; Here he closed, as his subject had assumed 1 such proportions as it was impossible for! * . him to compress in the short space al- .. lowed for such a paper, and on such an | w' occasion, the whole life and character of i his subject, but he has promised to com-; th> pletc the biography at an early date. We | hare frequently heard Mr. Burt inthe'sj( Court House, at the meetings of the Bar, i and in public speaking, and we are quite] , sure that we have never heard a finer production from him oronedistinguished j ' for its ehaso and classical style and eleganceof diction.

If wo! al are not mistaken the Rifles were offered j the position in the spring, hut declined it; J because they were afraid it would inter-1 on fere with theirdutiesat the October Court.) oli But now that Judge Fraser isaoingto) ; Yorktown too, tho way is opened for the ; Rifles to go also. The boys are in need ; of money to equip themselves in a credi- ; mi table manner. Tl*y propose to give a: hot supper on Monday night, as will be ' seen elsewhere in these columns. Audi ' we hope our citizens will give them a lib-' of eral patronage. Butdon't let your interest wi stop there. In justice to ourselves let us make their equipments as complete as j. any. The company is a fine one and an W honor to Abbeville, and we should man- W ifestour appreciation of the honor done j us in selecting them, by giving them ev- j-J ery aid and assistance. in Jo Opening of the Graded School.

The Synod which Is now 1 n session at Louisville, Georgia, b will in all probability elect Dr. Grier editor. The sermon of Dr. Talmage published b this week is particularly appropriate on f< this occasion. He seems to have given up all hope of the President's recovery, and ^ bis worst fears have been realized.

We sco It announced in the Xews and Courier that an excursion to Charleston for I the benefit of country merchants has been 'arranged. for which tickets will be sold on the 110th and lllh of October, good to rc.urn until the 17th of October. The fare for the round ' trip from Anderson has been fixed at $t>, and I $1025 from Wulhallu. Now, for the sake of 'comparison, wo wish to recall the fact that | only a short time ago an excursion was run lor the benclltof Charleston people who wished to visit Uic up-country, for which tickets , were sold to Will ha I la and return good for , fourteen days at $5.75. These Charleston cx[curslonlsts hud not all gotten back home when it was magnanimously proposed lo run :a cheap\J) excusion to take up-country meridian is to Charleston to do their full trading at sll'.iS apiece irom V.'alhnllu with only seven days to go and return. We itavc olteti had occasion to deplore Charleston's shortsighted policies, and here is another occasion given us. Is this the best the business men ofi Charleston can do when they attempt to exhibit enterprise? Are they silly enough to | think that live, energetic, go-Ahead up-couu-j try mercliants will accept such puny balls in. i the liice of such tight-skin discrimination in I favor of Charleston people and be induced t-?! withhold their purchases until October tl>at : they may avail themselves of the advantages' tills section may And it convenient to tunic next month in Charleston. but the great bulk | of litem have already purchased their stocks i in Haiti more.

We are sorry for Charleston's misfortune, bui we i regret far more her folly. ! Anonymous Writers for the Press, j C. F. Cl ukson, the veteran agricultural j editor of the Den Moines Register, gives hisj views as to tictitfoitosignatures to newspaper ; i*^ * _j Having been inside of the curtains for a considerable portion of along life, it has given an opportunity to judge of the character and animus of those who write for newspapers over ticiitious signatures. I Lave no con- j tldence in them and seldom read I h-'ir pro; ductions. They tire either ashamed of what [ they are writing, or they arc sneaking sian- i derers. This kind of stahhing is done in fan-1 cled security. To be defended by sucii a one j casts suspicion upon the man or the cause. Such communications are always suspected and shunned by reflecting men. And when 1 have known of a man writing a:i article and signing to it the name ol one who lias been dead thousands of years or who I never existed, I ever after hold that man at a j respectful distance as dangerous, it may he lulu down as a safe rule that any man who writes and signs some other than his own, or some arbitrary initial letters. Is ashamed ofi what lie writes, or Is not willing to be respon-1 slide for the statement, or wishes to stab sonic j man's character in the dark, or knows his own character for veracity Is so bad that his] name attached would be an Impeachment ofi the article. I have made this matter a study j for many years, and fictitious writers have always been suspicious men. i j'oetsanu no^eusis nave so cuiwhicu mcir productions, hut It was only until their writings had established the fact that they would be a disgrace to their real ones. "Junius," the ablest, critic who ever hid behind a fictitious natne, did not dare at the time, nor during his j life, to openly acknowledge the authorship of his letters. And all his successors have been a puck of snarling, disreputable puppies, who<c characters would condemn their statements, or who are mean enough to st:>b a man .-)r bis opinions, like the midnight assassin. In the dark. Any one may, therefore, look with grave and well-founded suspicion upon any communication in a newspaper without the writer's name to It. This position Is sustained by the thousands of article otiered me as editor in the last fifty years. They were gen erally otiered by sncnkingslatnlerers,or to accomplish an unworthy and dastardly purpose. Editors should not tolerate such thin'.'s. Anything a man writes, if it. is not good pnough to put his name to, is not good enough for publication. The communication itself shou d not only be held as suspicions, but the man himself should ever after be watched, having once attempted to say a thing or make i? statement without <laring to be himself responsible for It. I have looked over, in my memory, the long list of those who years ago ! nttempted toetlect a purpose or belabor an opponent fictitiously; they have eventually come to some bad end. <>? A G'OOtI IdPft. [Anderson Intclltgvnccr.] Wo know of several planters In this county who intend to sow their best, bottom lands in oats as soon as their corn crop can betaken otr. and when they cut the oats next year plant a corn crop, thereby raising a double crop of grain oil the land In one year. It Is naid that by fertilizing the land well tor each crop, this can be done without Injury to the land, liv this means abund'int crops of oats ran lie raised without decreasing the arrestee nt either corn or cotton. Our people should by ail means sow lur'ie crop* of wheat and [>uts. with good crops of barley and rye. We will need these crops badly next year, and by having them, beginning with next Spring, r>ur condition for next year will be greatly improved. The farmer who neglects these crops will undoubtedly regret hid oversight next Summer. Geokgia Hrlmion?The ITartwrll Sin has the following to say of behavior In church of the people in that village: "There arc so-called Christians who go to God's house and spit tobacco Juice over the tloorso that a decent man cnlmot kneel for prayer. If you were to go to the resldcnc of one of these tobacco saints aid spit pur'dles of filthy anibia upon the floor hu would put you out of his house and set the dog on you. l)o ihese filthy fellows think they would be admitted into Heaven with their p >ckels full Of tobacco, and be allowed to squirt the filthy fluid over the pearly gates and golden streets? If theycaunot spend one hour without it in worship upon earth, how '"III they pass endless ages without It? It would bo far more ecnteel to pull out a flask of whNky In church and lake a pull. Any man or boy who spits tobacco upon the floor of a church should be kicked out by some stout, man who wears No 10 heavy boots, nnd such a kicker shond be appoints at both the Captist and Methodist churches in Hartwcll." Among our (.titer troubles It Is announced that the crop of growing hogs is twenty-five per cent, less than last year, and consequently the price of meat will be about thirty per cent, higher than this year. The way to remedy thut is to consume less meat. As a general thing persons if-e mote hoir meat than conduces to health. Tay more attention to milk and butter, and raise more poultry and keep the bt-ef of the country at home, ami we will live better on three-quarters of our present pork supply than we now do on the full amount.?And-r?on I?te!lia*ncer. We are gratified to learn this morning from our enterprising merchant, Mr. H. P. Mcliee, that the Subscription to the I3aptl<t church In Due West amounts to six hundred dollars. As soon as eight hundred are raised, the work will begin; as that amount will insure the success of the enterprise. Wc wish our Baptist frleuds success. A new fact In regard to melons has come to light. It Is said that If a melon be varnished it will retan nil itr good qualities for an hide finite time. A person who tried this method of preservation nays that, nt Chiistinas, when the watermelon was cut. Its flavor and sweetness were equal to those of a fresh melon. A man who has lived In West Tennessee forty-two years tells the Reldxvillc Tinux that many people in his section \\ ho arc as old as he Is "never saw a spoonful of guano in their j lives?they don't use It, hut harrow In peas after each crop of wheat for fertilizing purposes." Weary. Weary of living, so weary ! longing to lie down and die. To llnd for the sad heart and dreary. The cud of the pilgrimage nigh. Weary, so weary of wishing, Fora form that, has cone lrom my sight, For a voice that Is hushed to me ever, For eyes that lo ine were so bright. For a hand to belaid on my forehead. A glimpse of the golden brown hair. For a step that to me was sweet music, And a brow that was noble and fair. Weary, so weary of waltinir, Wailing lor sympathy sweet. For something to love and to love me; And pleasures tbatarc not so fleet. Tired, so tired of drifting, Adown the dark stream of life ; Tired of breastinir the billows. The billows of toil and strife. Wishing and waiting so sadly. For love that was sweetest and best, Willing to die, oh ! so gladly, If th it would bring quiet and rest. BIRTHS. At Abbeville. Tuesday the 20th inslant, Mrs. S. C.
