Eugene Alexander, of TuK SETI Nan, ban been visiting friends and relatives in Charleston for the past week. There were several sbowers of small hail stones in the county last week, but no damage has been re ported. The pushing farmers on Bethlehem Ridge, south of the court house, re port tlheir now ground burned off and the corn planted. Wheat was much injured and re jarded by the April freeze, but it is now making rapid strides toward a a very gogd harvest. The section just south of Easley was visited by a heavy rain storm Saturdav accompanied by hail, thun der and a violent wind. 3orn unto Mr. and Mrs. A. Trez vant Folger, of Easley, on the 6th inst. a daughter. Mr. F., thinks it is probable that he will have to deco. rate her with the name "Free Silver." Henry Lawrence has the'brag corn on both sides of the Pumpkintown road just this side of Town creek. He fertilized it with cornstalks, and so far he seems to have made a good hit. Rev. 0. R. Shaffer filled his ap pointments at Pickens and Bethlehem last Sabbath, preaching earnest and appreciated sermons at both places. He is certainly capable of much hard work. James Rosemond e"lored, is doing some fine farming on the Neil place He. has about eighty acres in cotton and has raked about a ton of Bermu. da grabs into the road to be trampled under the feet of men. Bob Robinson and some friends attended a baptizing at Pisgah last Sabbath. Bob is nothing if not a Baptist, and he led his thirsty ani mals to the pool to drink and they Plunged in and were immersed, all but their heads. There was almost a hurricane in the neighborhood of Central last Sat. urday, and the wind was strong enough to pick up one of Mr. Hop. kins' little boys and ride him a short distance. We have heard of no seri. ous damage so far. Representative Izlar, of South Ca. rolina, who recently made his advent in congress, met an old college. chun in Representative Cobb, of Alabama. They had not met since 1856, when they attended Emory College togeth er, at Oxford, Ga.-Washington Post. In the account of the union meet ing, the election of Hon. W. T. Bow. en as moderator, was overlooked, the reporter not being present at that stage of the proceedings. The elec tion was unanimous, and he presided with his accustomed promptness and courtesy. There are now two papers in Green wood, the Leader andI the Advocate. They are quite young, but old enough to shoot. The editor of the Advocate putL a ball in the arm of Rowell, the editor of the Leaader, one day last week. Hie says he shot in self de fence and winged his game. TI. D. Hareis has made for his cat *tle a splendid pan-handle pasture by enclosing a portion of his land, just Routh of his dwehing, and exte~mding the handle of the pan so as to take in about forty feet of Rocky Branch, just below the bridge. Thus the cattle have to feed from the pan and drink fromi the handle. A family of six tramps passed through Pickenms last week. They begged from door to door, and were recognized by several whose sympathy prompted themi to feed the hungry. They were here about one year ago. They must have an orbit around which they revolve once in a year. They are one man and two women andl three children. In the case of J. L. Ambler vs. Larkin Hendricks, tried somietinme ago on claim and delivery proceedings before Justice T. C. Robinson, the jury assessed damages against the plaintiff ini favor of the defendant at the sum of $7.50. The motion for a new trial was ref used last Thursday, and judgment entered pugettant to the verdict. This was a ca'se under the stock law. Land sold cheap last Monday, al though there was a good crowd pres ent considering the fine weather for firming Twventy-two acres of the Keith land on George's Creek was sold to J1. K. Bons for $40 00; the brick store at Easley was sold to H. Earle ilussell for $1,000 and firty acres mountain land sold under exe cution to WV. 11. Price for $5.00. This closed the clerk's and sheriff's sales for the day. Mrs. Elizabeth Clayton, the dlevot ed wife of F. Van Clavton, diedI at her home near Sharon l'ast Saturday morning aged hixty years. She had been a consistent and faithful mem ber of the church for many years, anti died in the full triumph of a christian faith. The a.noneement of her death will carry sadness to the hearts of many friends to whom she was endeared by the wvarmest ties of friendseip and love. She was a wo) man of fine education and great force of character, and iter influence was felt for good on all with whomi she was associated. The old court house was sold to' the highest biddler, Col. C. L Hollings worth, for $310. It is to be moeved by the Grat day of September anid the buyer has till the first of Decem-. bor to pay the mmoey, provided he can give sat isfaciry security. The Col. says lie has an elephant on his hands and he does not know what he will do with it. Everybody seems: to think it was sold well. There are over. 200,000 brick in the walls and .much good timbor 0.1 the inside, but accoding :o "Blue Back," it is no small job to tear down an old house ah move the rubbish. The Al.1. Further particulars from the hail and wind of Satur day show that it was more severe than at first reported. The Wind at Central moved Tup Watkins' new store from the pillars and broke off some shade trees in front of the Shirley store-house, and the hail so damaged Tup Watkins' and McMartin's crops of cotton that they will have to be replanted. On towards Easley damage to the same extent was done to the crops of George, Elliott and Earle Konne more. They expect to replant this week. The cotton crops of W. i. Johnson and B. J. Johnson were also badly damaged, and other farmers along the railroad have been hunting seed to replant their lands. The death of one of W. B. Allgood's plow nags a few days ago, presented in unique case of equine affliction. Dasual observers gave in the disease is blind staggers, but Mr. Allgood, who is himself a first-claes horse doc bor, is a very close observer, and the synptoms did not seem to satisfy aim that it was a case of blind stag gers, as the vision was not interfered with, and the normal appetite showed that there was no gastric trouble, so ae concluded it must have been a case f brain fever. The animal frequent ly staggered and fell and died in xbout forty-eight hours. Are not torses liable to brain fever? V. W. Aiken, the enterprising ,ountry merchant at Hazel, was in Pickens on business last Thursday. rhere was a man name Coxey, Who had three hundred men; Ele marched themn up on Capitol Hill, Then he marched them down again. [he little acorns have turned 'o little oaks; The hungry cattle over the green are lowing; anxious candidates are hunting up their little jokes, And trying to tell which way the wind is blowing.
