TOWN AND COUNTY NEWS. T. D. KENNEDY, Local Editoe. MUNICIPAL ELECTION. The town of Belton was greatly excited on Monday last by the municipal election. The Issue between "wet" and "dry" was warmly contested,' in which the advocates of license proved successful for the most part, securing a majority of the Town^Uouncil by electing the following members: Intendantr-teaj. George W. Cox. Wardens?Wm. S. Smith, W. H. Austin, Joel T. Rice and A. P. Willingham. The "dry" ticket received the next highest vote for the additional Wardens, but there was a tie between three candidates for two places, and hence another election must be held to supply the vacancies. Six Wardens constitute <a full ticket PATRONS OF HUSBANDRY. We have received a note from Mr. W. W? Russell, of Sandy Springs, in which he fully concurs with the suggestion made last week that the contemplated meeting to organize the County Grange shall take place on Saturday, 3rd of April, instead of next Saturday. We presume that the Anderson County Council will be dissolved, and that the organization of a County Grange will be made, in accordance with the recent provisions of the State and National Granges. County Granges are com? posed oT the Worthy Matters and Past Masters "Of subordinate Granges, with their wives who are Matrons, and three delegates from each Grange within the limits of the County. This will give a large and influential representation ?of the farmers, which will prove beneficial to their interests. NARROW ESCAPE, We learn that on Saturday last, as Mr. Milton Erskine and his. son Willie were crossing Ham? mond Creek, on the Greenville road, about one one a half miles above this place, they narrow? ly escaped from drowning. It seems that the Creek, (which is always fordable in fine weath -er,) owing to'the heavy rains of Thursday and Yri day* last, had risen to a considerable height and when Mr. Erskine and his son attempted to cross it with their wagon and mules, they were swept down with the current, and were it not for the timely assistance given by a colored man who was near by, both would have been drowned, and the mules and team lost The body was lifted off the wagon by the force of the water, and carried some distance down the stream, while its contents, consisting of tiles and other articles, were deposited in the creek. This was a very narrow escape from a watery grave, and should be a warning to all persons attempting to ford swollen streams without first testing the safety of such a course. PREMIUM LIST. We are indebted to B. F. Crayton, Esq., for a handsome copy of the premium list of the eight annual lair of the Andsrson Farmers' and Mechanics' Association. It is gotten up in a neat style, and was printed at the office of the Greenville News. We notice that many new articles have been introduced into the sev? eral departments, as well as many important changes made in their selection and arrange? ment. Although the Fairs of past years have given general satisfaction to all, by the large displays in the arts, agriculture and Manufac? tures, yet it is the intention of the Directors to make the coming Fair in October next, a greater and more brilliant success than hereto? fore. They appeal to the public to come for? ward with specimens of their skill, ingenunity and industry, and increase the prosperity of an institution founded upon principles of common good and common improvement A premium is offered to the best lady cook under twenty years of age, the experiment to be tried en the grounds. Young ladies desiring to compete would do will to commence practicing as early as possible. BRIEF MENTION. Cotton is in good demand with an upward tendency in prices. The market opened this morning at 15 cents for middling. Monday last was a day of considerable stir and trade in town. The square was thronged with wagons from different sections of the County, and vendors of Phosphates did a thriving business. Rev. J. S. Murray has accepted the call to serve the Anderson Baptist Church for the present year, and preaching may be expected regularly on every Sabbath, morning and evening. The Anderson Theatrical Company, com? posed of a number of amateur performers of the best talent and ability, propose entertaining the public at an early day with the popular play of "Ten Nights in a Bar Room." Mr. Ed. Thomas, of Baltimore, and Mr. Wm. 8. Keese, of Atlanta, were in town last week, and were making things lively in the way of low prices and prompt collections. It was meet and proper for them to depart together, so that our grief was not divided. On Saturday last we had the pleasure of meeting with Mr. W. F. Baker, of Atlanta, who is a member of the firm of Carley, Calder & Co., of that city. He is making a business tour through the upper-part of South Carolina, ?and we are glad to know that the world treats him kindly and that time deals leniently with him. We are requested to state that the Telegraph Office will.be ?open on Sunday mornings from ?9.80 until 10.80 a* m., and in the eveningsat 6.30? Heretofore many persons who had messages . to send off on that day, generally came when the office was closed, and consequently consid? erable delay was experienced. Now, by at? tending the office at the proper business hours ?ILdelays and difficulties will be obviated. ' To-morrow is Good Friday, which is the an? niversary of our Saviour's crucifixion, and ?s held as a solemn fast by a great portion of the Christian world. The resurrection of Christ is commemorated on Easter Sunday, which is the third day after Good Friday. It as>aXways the first Sunday after the full moon which occurs upon or next after the 21st of Marsh, and corresponds in time to the Passover ?of the Jews. 4fr Attention is directed to the advertisement of Mrs. C. C. Pegg, the proprietress of the Ladies' Store, in another column. Mrs. Pegg has just returned from New York with a large and well sedeeted stock of the latest and best stylos of ladies' spring goods, which can be seen and admired by all who are fortunate enough to attend the annual Grand Opening on Thurs? day, April 1st The many friends and custo? mers of the proprietress are requested to be present on that day. One of our prominent merchants remainod at home on Saturday last, and made the ac? quaintance of his numerous and interesting offspring?all boys. He was dodging a consta? ble, who wanted to serve him with a jury sum? mons issued by a Trial Justice, in a case which involved breach of trust between two civil righters. When the trial was concluded, the constable called at his place of business, and left word that he would not molest the^ner chant any further. DEATH OF CAPT. JAMES M. McFALL. It becomes our sad and painful duty to an? nounce the death of Capt. James M. McFall, a prominent and influential citizen of Pickens Connty, which occurred on Saturday morning last, 20th of March, in the 32nd year of his age. The deceased was a native of Anderson Coun? ty, and a son of tho late Col. John McFall. He lived in our midst until a few years ago* when he removed to Pickens C. H., and enter? ed upon a prosperous career as a merchant, building up a substantial and lucrative busi? ness within a very short time. His quiet, en? gaging manners, strict integrity and faithful adherence to business principles won for him ah enduring popularity among the people with whom his fortunes were identified, and it is simple truth to aver that no. man of his years was so thoroughly appreciated or more strong? ly beloved by the honest people of Pickens County, nor whose loss oould be more keenly felt in that community. Capt McFall was a gallant and faithful sol? dier in the Confederate army. Ho was our friend and comrade-in-arms during the pro? tracted struggle, and we can testify to his un? wavering fidelity as an officer and soldier throughout the entire war. He entered the service as a private in the ranks of the "Pal? metto Riflemen," which was raised chiefly in this town, and at the First Battle of Manassas, he was captured by the enemy, and for months endured the rigors of prison life in the Old Capitol Prison at Washington City. He was exchanged the following spring, and returned at once to duty. Later in the war he was ap? pointed Sergeant Major of the Palmetto Sharp Shooters, when we were serving as Adjutant of | that command, and subsequently he received the appointment of Adjutant from the War Department, which gave him the rank of Cap? tain. In that capacity he continued to serve with fidelity and honor until the close of the war, when he returned to the peaceful pursuits of the private citizen. No man was more greatly endeared to the entire command. Offi? cers and men will unanimously concur in ex? pressing the highest admiration for his un? doubted courage and unflinching adherence to duty. Soon after the war, Capt. McFall was married to Miss Mildred Robinson, of this town, and for several years he was engaged in mercantile employment here. His popularity in the army was maintained at home, and none will men? tion his name save with the utmost respect and kindly feeling. He joined the Presbyterian Church, and always lived a consistent and un? blemished life, being recognized as an earnest and zealous worker in the vineyard of his Master. Indeed, it was a peculiar and beauti? ful trait of his character that he was ever mind? ful of the religious training of the rising gene? ration, for whose welfare and happiness he was constantly laboring. The hand of friendship would fain trace oth? er incidents and characteristics of this noble and generous man, whose loss is so universally deplored, and whose memory and good deeds will be cherished in after years by all who knew him. Just and true in every relation of | life; liberal-hearted, philanthropic in his na? ture ; with undaunted bravery and manly self reliance, nono excelled him in all that makes up the noblest specimen of humanity. The remains of Capt. McFall were brought to this place on Monday morning, under the escort of a large delegation of the Masonic fra? ternity, who were met at the depot by another delegation from Hiram Lodge, No. 68, of which the deceased was formerly a member. The body was carried to the Masonic Hall, and re? mained there until eleven o'clock a. m., at which hour the funeral services took place. The procession of Masons was unusually large, and the congregation at the Baptist Church was imposing in numbers, embracing all classes of j Our citizens. The stores and business houses were closed as a mark of respect to the occa? sion. The funeral sermon was delivered by Rev. J. S. Murray, in which the life and char? acter of the deceased was feelingly portrayed, and the most useful lessons to the living were inculcated in an earnest and eloquent manner. The discourse created a profound impression among the listeners, whose enrapt attention showed the effect of the speaker's solemn en? treaties to emulate the example of the deceased, in making preparation for the inevitable change from time to eternity. After the religious ser? vices were concluded, the remains were com? mitted to the charge of the Masonic fraternity, and with the usual ceremonies of the order were deposited in the adjoining churchyard. Tho service was conducted by M.\ W.\ James A. Hoyt, Grand Master of Masons in South Carolina, who was requested to officiate on be? half of the several Lodges represented. IMPRO VEMENTS. Messrs. Reed <fe Stephens have erected a hand? some belfry on their carriage manufactury on Main street. The street hands are still engaged at work on Depot Street, and seem determined to rendor it in excellent condition before they leave it. Mr. E. F. Murrah has completed new fencing around his premises, thus adding to tho appear? ance of his handsome residence Mr. N. A. McCully is converting his lot near the Presbyterian Church into a model farm by a thorough system of tile drainage. Mr. Elias Clark is improving the looks of j his neat residence near the Collegiate Institute by having it painted. He intends to convert the space in front of his dwelling into a lawn at an early day. B. F. Whitner, Esq., has erected a handsome and substantial plank fence around Iiis premi? ses in the western section of town, and has planted out a large orchard of fine young trees of different varieties of fruit. We are glad to see that the long neglected sidewalk from the residonco of Maj. Whitner to that of Bevs. P. F. Stevens and W. W. Mood has been put in good condition, and can now be traveled with ease by pedestrians, LECTURE.

Express chronicles tho death of Judge Reese McGregor, a native of Anderson County, who removed to Georgia many years ago. He was a brother of the late John W. McGregor, and has many friendo yet living here who will regret to learn of his death. Judge McGregor filled many important positions in public life since he resided in Polk County, serving as Sheriff for a long torm of years, and afterwards representing that County in the Georgia Legislature. He was honest and intelligent, liberal and generous in all his dealings with mankind, and lived as a consis? tent member of the Baptist Church from early youth. WHITE LEAD, ZINCS, COLORS, AND PUTTY.
