AVe are authorized to announce that the Annual Exhibition of the Junior Glass of this Institution Tr ill occur on Friday, 14th inst. Exercises to com? mence at 10 o'clock. DELEGATES ZD THE MEMPHIS CONVENTION. Among the delegates appointed by Gov. Scott to represent this State in the Commercial Conven? tion, to be held in Memphis ou Tuesday next, vre observe the names of Hon. James L. Orb and Mr. William Pebbt, of this county. SUPPLEMENT. We are compelled to issue a. supplement this vseeiA in>order to accomodate our advertising pat? rons, whose favors are abundant and highly accep? table. While this pressure upon our columns lasts, we shall continue such arrangements as will afford thjausuul quantity of reading matter. ?-+-' AGRICULTURAL MAGAZINE. The advertisement of Messrs. Walkkr, Evans & Cogswell announces that they will shortly issue an agricultural and mechanical journal. Our friends assure us that they intend to make this publication worthy of an extended patronage. We offer them a cordial wish for entire success In this undertaking. Able editors will be employed to conduct the magazine, and the printing will be done in the highest style of the art. "THE REAL ESTATE RECORD." This is the title of a periodical, published by Ksese & McCvllt, the first number of which has been issued for May. These enterprising gentle? men design to issue a large edition quarterly, for gratuitous circulation. The present number con? tains interesting letters from Messrs. B. F. Pebbt, ? P. Reed and J. L. Orb, setting forth the advan? tages and resources of this section. Besides such information, a large quantity of lands offered for sale are described, together with advertisements of j a different nature. THE PROPOSED EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION. The Charleston News argues at length upon the propriety of such an organization at this time. Its general conclusion is adverse to the proposi? tion. On some points, we do not agree with our extemporary, but there is no occasion to prolong the discuss^a, since the Barnwell Journal is wil? ling to "wai-ne the matter for the present," and as that paper originated the idea, we presume that the fraternity at large will drop the subject. We desire, however, to b? placed right upon the record. In noticing the suggestion of the Journal, we of? fered our "dissent from the proposition to estab? lish uniform rates for subscription and advertising, far the reason, that one paper is worth more than another, and thatt advertising regulates itself by the circulation and influence of each newspaper." At the same time, we announced our readiness to meet the members of the press on any convenient occasion, to discuss these and', other questions. That is our position now, and whenever the press of the State shall agree lo hold a meeting, it will be our pleasure to attend, if possible. Such convention, iu its social aspect alone, would be worth attending, and might result profitably to the various, members. THE COLI'S?SIA EH(EN ISLAND. THE APSOINT 1 LENTS BT THE GOVERNOR. We have been .quite surprised.by a. card.from the Proprietor of the Phoenix, under the headiof *H/er sonal," and which is published elsewhere La-our columns to-day. This surprise is occasioned by the manner in which Mr. Selbt attempts to.excul? pate himself from blame, in regard to the endorse? ment given by his journal to the recent executive appointments for census-takers of the various counties. He alleges that "a typographical error occured?the words general satisfaction not being italicized; lo convey the idea that the expression wan used ironically." We propose to, examine briufly some of the facts connected with the re? markable endorsement, as we insist it was, and leave an enlightened public to judge as to the merits of this very curious explanation. In the first place, the words "general satisfaction" were not used in the article announcing the appoint? ments of the Governor, and this plainly shows that the reputed editor of the Phoenix is not now cog? nizant of the language employed, much less the meaning intended to be conveyed. For his especial benefit, we quote the sentence alluded to: "The appointments will be generally approved," (these italics are ours, be it remembered,) '-and we hope that in the discharge of their duties these officials w,ill meet with every facility which can be afforded by the citizens of the State." That is the whole of it, and contains enough to excite unfavorable comment.. Will the astute editor of the Phoenix point out the irony, expressed or implied, when t,'je words of endorsement arc put in italics ? But, admitiing that, sqcb was. the injeutiou, whal be? comes of the context and. Us. meaning? The citi? zens of the State, "without regard to raqc, color or previous condition," are urged to afford "every facility" to these very proper officials, and there is no claim that ihe whole sentence ought to have been italicized. Even admittiug all this, however, apd. our, du1! comprehension fails to.detect the last vein of irony. "O.I rno$i !?iiEe.a?<i.impol<eiU con? clusion!" We hnve noticed this card from the simple fact that the Intelligencer was the first newspaper in the State, so far as we know, to condemn this manifest approvalof the Governors appointments. We did so on the ground of adhereuce to priuciple, and: deny most emphatically that there was any dispo si on to --curp at the article," or find.fault unneces? sarily. We have regarded the Phoenix as the cen? tral Democratic organ, of the Stn',e, and when it vias discovered, that an unqualified,endorsement of soca aiiscrablc selections for public officers ap? peared in its columns, we felt like administering a Bound rebuke to the writer. The card of Mr. Sel by fails to convince us that we were wrong in action or principle. King's Mountain Militari School.?The York ?vjlle Enquirer, of the 6lh ilist., says : The handsome and commodious brick building and appurtenances, situated in the suburbs of York villa, and kuown as the " Garrison," built in 1855 for the nuxpose of the above named school, were sold on Moqdav last by the Sheriff, to satisfy debts against the former- proprietors. Coward and Jenkins. Col. Asbury C?prard, the enterprising principal of the school, at the present time, was tpe purchaser. This sale, we learn, relieves the institution of its embarrassments, and Col. Coward proposes at. once to provide for its establishment on a permanent basis. The buildings will soon be thoroughly repaired and their capacity enlarged ifs, accommodate double the present number of j cadets We congratulate the community and friends of the. institution, that it is lo remain in the hands of Col. Coward, and that we may regard jt henceforth as a fixture in our town. The thor? ough discipline of the students, Ih'i careful and gentlemanly superintendance of the principal and his as-.-i.-ian:s, thu high standard of moral and in? tellectual culture, and the healthy locality, all unite to elevate this institution to the place, it ficlily merits, as among the foremost seats of }ejiruuig 'n (he State.. LOCAL NEWS IK BRIEF. Ah Extra Communication of Hiram Lodge-, No. 68, A. F. M., will be held in the Lodge room to? morrow (Friday) evening, at eight o'clock. The E. A. degree will be conferred.

If you have not, we advise all who wish to see and buy nice goods to give them a call. -They are likewise prepared to furnish everything in the housekeeping line. Religious Notice.?We are requested to an? nounce that Rev. J. 0. Eindsat will preach in the Presbyterian Church of this placo on Saturday next, at 11 o'clock a m., and also on Sunday morn? ing ?T 10.} o'clock. The Lord's Supper will be ad? ministered on Sabbath morning af:er public ser? vices. A Liberal House.?The column occupied by Sham's & Fant's advertisements shows that they know the virtue of printer's ink. Their stock is really beautiful, and embraces everything usually kept in a first-class house. We conmend them to the continued favor of a generous public. The South Carolina Loan and Trust Compa? ny.?This Company, whose advertisement appears regularly in the columns of the Intelligencer, has opened a department for the deponit of Savings, allowing 6 per cent, interest under he rules of the late Charleston Savings Institution, which have been adopted, by this Company. i Watson & Co.?When you wish to buy cheap and elegant goods, remember wher<; to find this firm, who are always alive to the necessities of the people, and keep constantly on hand a great vari ty and complete stock. Their supply for the spring and summer has been selected with great care, and is calculated to please the most fastidi? ous. Musical Convention.?The anniversary meet? ing of the Stale Musical Convention will begin in the Baptist Church of this place tc-raorrow (Fri? day) morning. The public are invited to attend Wm. Walk En, of Spartanburg, the welT-known musical author, is President of tha Convention, which is composed of delegates from various coun* ties, including teachers and processors. The Cheap Cobnhr.?Everybody knows what is meant by this expression, for the reputation of Sullivan, Mattison & Co. has gone far and wide. Their aommodious store has been recently filled with goods, and they are determined to offer bar? gains to their numerous customers. The ladies especially will find many attractions, but the wants of the sterner sex have not been neglected. W. F. Barr & Co.?Among the younger busi? ness houses of thi? place, none stand higher in the public estimation than this firm, and none more deservedly enjby the confidence and patronage of the community. Their present stock of goods !will compare favorably with any other house, nnd I we advise a careful inspection, feoling confident , that they will render satisfaction in both styles and prices* Fruits and Flowxbs.?This is the brand of a celebrated Tobacco/jnanufactured by E.

We are indebted to Mr. Ju? lius-Borrs for a package, and take pleasure in recommending it lo our friends, He has a large quantity on hand, and as the factory- was de? stroyed by fire last weck, iL may. be difficult to * procure s> supply. Give- Mr. P?ppjc u call, next .door. totlie Post Office. Blzcklet & Evins.?Both of these gentlemen have been long and favorably known to the citi? zens of Anderson. Fair dealing, extensive expe? rience and a thorough knowledge of the people's wants combine to make '.heizv reputation stand upon a solid foundation. It is with pleasure that we invite attention to their advertisement, nnd urge an early call at their store. Their stock wan purchased by one of the firm, and comprises the the choicest variety and most elegant selections. Meeting or Selectmen.?The mcetingon Sat? urday last, of Selectmen from the various town? ships, was largely attended, and was presided over by R. N. Wright, Esq. No important meas? ures were determined upon, we believe, and the business was confined to interchanging views upon the township law, which is a sore puzzle to many. We suggest that the Attorney Genend ought to give a full interpretation of its provisions, in or? der that others not learned in the law might ob? tain an insight into its mysterious workings. Horse Stolen.?On Friday night last, a small sorrel-roan horse was stolen from Mr. 8. A. Skel ton, four miles west of this place, under circum? stances inducing the belief that one A. W. Fain, who has been confined in the jail of this county on charges of disorderly qqnduct, perpetrated the theft. Said Fain is from Calhoun, Ga., about six feet, high, weighs 170 or 175 lbs., dark hair and eyes, and limps with one foot, from a woutid re? ceived in the army. H,e has a good address, and talks fluectly. He was released from custody on Thursday, and on Friday morning sought an inter? view with us, for the puiposc of exhibiting lettfjrs frotp bis friends in Georgia in reference to.his good character and respectable connections, closing the interview by requesting that we would set him, right before the public. This request is complied; with, but in a different manner from what he expec? ted. Our exchanges will please render him a sim lar favor. Tho advertisement of Mr. Skelton will be found in nnother column, PERSONAL. A notice appeared in the Phoenix, several weeks ago, with reference to the appointment of officers under an Act passed by the legislative body lately in session, in which a typographical error occur? red?the words "general satisfaction" not being italicized ; to convey the idea that the expression was used ironically. The omission was detected shortly after the publication of the paper ; but it was deemed unimportant, as it was thought the pwj^itaof the State were cognizant, from past ex? perience, of the position it occupied. It ap? pears, however that such was not the case, and several parties, have evinced a disposition not only lo carp at the article, but to reflect unfavorably upon, the paper. WiUio.uJl going further into de? tail, we simply assert that ucLtk,er the course of the paper nor the opinions of the editor, with ref? erence to the present unfortunate state of things, have undergone any change, and that he witl ear? nestly endeavor in tho future, as in the past, to a^t, aright, and merit the just approval of uis fcl low-?itiz,cns.

BEER, BEER, BEER! -:o: THE Commissioner of Agriculture, in his report for the year 1865, spcukg as follows: " There can be iio doubt of the general adultera? tion of all malt liquors. In England and other countries, where heavy penalties are imposed, and an increasing vigilance practiced to detect and punish such frauds, by a system of inspection of all malt liquors manufactured before exposed to sale, the practice is very common. How much more in this country, where (bore are no laws on the subject, nnd no officer to carefully analyze the products of the brewery ? Some years ago, Pro? fessor Mapes.-of New York, analyzed the beer from a dozen different breweries, and all were found adulterated witli noxious substances. It is said that the sale of drugs to brewers, is a profit? able part of the trade. This is perfectly infamous. Cocculus indicus, (fish-berry,) nux vomica, (dog button, from which strychniue is obtained,) are some of the delectable- substances found in beer. These are potent poisons, nnd the brewer found using them should be drowned at once in one of his own vats. The Britieh- Parliament passed a law to prevent this nefarious- business. The fol? lowing is an extract: ' No drtggist. vender of or dealer in drugs, or chemist, or any other person, shall sell or deliver to any licensed brewer, dealer in or retailer in beer, knowing ihem to be such-, or shall sell or deliver to any pemon on account of, or in trust for, any such brewer, dealer, or retail? er, any liquor called by the name of or sold for coloring, from whatever the matsrial the same may' be made; or any material or preparation other than unground brown malt, for the darkening tire color of worts beer, or any molattses, vitriol, honey, quassia, cocculus indicus, grain? of paradise, Guinea pepper, or opium, or nny extract or pre? paration of molasses, or any article or preparation to be used in worts or beer for or as a substitute for malt or hops; and if any diuggist shall offend in any of these particulars, such preparation, &c, shall be forfeited, and may be seized by any officer excise, and the person so offerding shall forfeit five hundred pounds' "Under this law, very many druggists nnd brewers were brought to grief, and yet the practice continues. Unless the American people are ready to adrak rhe immaculate purity and innocence of American brewers, t-hey must be content, while drinking tbeir beer, to cherish the belief that they arc at the same time guzzling some narcotic poison or damaging medicine. In- view of the unprece? dented growth of the barley crcp; of the great in? crease of the number of malstcts and brewers; of the vast unknown quantities of beer that are drunk in every city and almost every town ou the conti? nent; it is the dictate of sound, wisdom, that the attention of legislators should b? called to the sub? ject of the aJuIteration of our malt liquors, and severe penalties should' be inflicted as a preven? tive."
