TOWN AND COUNTY NEWS. T. D. KENNEDY, Local Editor? BRIEF MENTION. Dr. W. G, Browne will be absent from his dental office from the 27th of June to the 4th of July, inclusive. ? Copious showers have fallen in this section during the past week, furthering the prospects of corn, cotton and other crops. Rev. P. P. Stevens, resigned the pastoral charge of the Episcopal Church on Sunday j last, and we learn contemplates an early re? moval to the low-country. Matthew Heldmann requests us to announce that he will open another saddle and harness shop within two weeks from this time, when Customers will find him ready for business. A good substantial drain has been construct? ed by the Chief of Police on the cross-street between the public square and McDuffie street, running along the side of the mercantile estab? lishment of Messrs. Bleckley, Brown & Co. The Trial Justices in the town have been en? gaged in adjudicating interesting and impor? tant, cases within the last few days, and judg? ing from the number of persons bound over to keep the peace, we imagine everything will be quiet for the next twelve months. The colored people of Sumter have organized a temperance order under the name of the True Reformers, numbering about ninety members, I and still on the increase. Such an organization in, Anderson would prove beneficial, and we ' oommend the example to the colored people. I "-' We were favored with a call from Rev. E. A. Bolles on Tuesday morning. He was on the way to attend the commencement exercises at Walhalla, which occurred this week. Mr. J Bolles is actively prosecuting his labors as the J District Superintendent of the American Bible J Society. j Rev. J", S. Murray has been suffering from erysipelas during the last two or three weeks, j but we are gratified to state that he is much improved, and was able to conduct divine ser- I vices on Sunday morning. Rev. W. W. Mood, of the Methodist Church, has been quite ill for a week oriwo, and is now convalescing. Tho Emporium of Fashion offers splendid J inducements to cash customers for the next sixty days, and many articles will be sold be- I low tfie actual cost in New York and Balti? more. The proprietor assures us that- this is really in earnest; and begs the attention of I cash customers to the attractive prices at this establishment. A public meeting of the male citizens of School District No. 17 of Anderson County will j be held in the Court House on Saturday next, 26th inst., at 12 m. All persons interested in the educational interests of this School District, which includes the corporate limits of the town of Anderson, are requested to be present, as j business of importance will be transacted. Quite an amusing incident took place in one oPthe* grocery stores in town the other day. A white man stepped in, and seeing a colored individual of bis acquaintance, remarked:? "How d'ye do, Sam ? Have you been sick?" "Why do you ask?" replied Sam. "Because you look so pale!" remarked the white man. This is the first time we ever heard of a colored individual looking pale. The largest gourd we ever saw was brought to our office on Monday last by Mr. A. D. Bow Ian, and attracted much attention from curiosi? ty-mongers. The gourd measures five feet in 'circumference, and holds by actual measure? ment one bushel, one and a half pecks! It grew last year, and was the only one upon the vine. Mr. Bowlan also brought us a specimen of his oat crop, which is superior. Prof, Geo. R. Levison arrived in our town on Tuesday morning, and has made arrangements to begin a class in penmanship and book-keep? ing. Lessons will be given at the Benson House, next door to Simpson, Hill <fc Co., in the store-room lately occupied by McGukin <fc Co. Ladies and gentlemen desirous of joining the class can ascertain terms and other particu? lars by calling at the place designated. ? Messrs. McCully <feOsborne have commenced threshing wheat on an improved and exten? sive scale. They are muning the sweepstakes thresher, with an engine of six-horse power, and can thresh, when the wheat is dry, one hundred bushels per hour. This is certainly a decided improvement on the threshers of late - years, and is an evidence of the rapid advance in agricultural science in the up-country. kThe School Commissioner, Capt. Thos. P. Benson, gives notice of a competitive exami? nation on the- 5th of July for a beneficiary scholarship in the State University. He like? wise publishes a statement of the free school funds, showing the amount of money to tho credit of each school district, and warning trustees not to exceed the sum allotted to their share. All parties concerned will refer to his advertisement for particulars. The attorneys for the defence in tho case of the State-vs. Henry Sieger, for the murder of Miss Tucker, which was transferred fo Green viRe at the last term of Court at this place, went over to Greenville on Tuesday morning last. The various witnesses went over on Tuesday evening. The case camo up for trial on Wednesday morning, and still continues. Considerable interest is manifested, and the trial promises to be one of unusual interest. The street hands are beginning a substantial piece of work on McDuffie street, in tho rear of Granite Row, by which it is intended to drain the water flowing from the east sido of the public square more thoroughly. The rock drains' are to be extended on each sido of Mc? Duffie street, and made to unite with the drain on Depot street, which is to be reconstructed in the most approved style. The importance of these streets demand that the work be made permanent in character. ^HEALTH AND DRAINAGE. The movement on the part of land-owners on Roeky River deserves to receive general v commendation from the public, because the effort making is to improve and preserve the sanitary condition of this community. The meeting on last Friday did nothing more than exchange views among the respective land? owners, and appoint a committee to investi? gate and report upon the condition of the lands in question. Tho report of this committee will embrace a plan to effect tho necessary drainage of Rocky River and its tributary streams, the amount of land to be reclaimed by proper drainage, the cost of perfecting the work, and the general influence upon the public health. The committee will make an examination of j the stream to-day, we are informed, and will get ready to submit their report on Saturday next. A competent engineer will accompany the committee. The meeting ought to embrace eyery citizon of Anderson and surrounding countrj', for every one is interested to some extent in this movement. We suggest that the meeting take place in the Court House at ton o'clock, in order to avoid any conflict with the school district meeting, which convenes at noon, according to law. GREAT WIND STORM. The severest wind storm of tho year visited this section on Wednesday ovoning last, and did considerable damage, both in town and country. It began a little before six o'clock, and continued uhabated for almost an hour, during -which time tho streots were reudored impassable and unsafe by clouds of dust, bro? ken branches of trees, etc., flying about through the air. Every one seemed to bo of tho same opinion, viz?that the dreaded tornado had set in, and the town would bo lovolod to tho ground. Tho strongth of tho storm came from the Northwest, where heavy, luminous clouds were observed soon in tho afternoon, and it struck the northwest corner of the west end of the Waverly Houso, tearing up about one third of the tin rooting, sheeting and rafters uudorneath, and throwing tho mass into the public square below. Mr. Stephen MeCully, who was passing in his buggy at the timo, nar- j rowly escaped with his life, by his horso be? coming frightened at tho noise, and running to the right. Tho falling debris demolished tho handsome town lamp and other things in front of the Emporium of Fashion. Tbc tin remain? ing on the west end was rolled up for tho space of about six or eight feet. Tho fury of the storm seomed to be somewhat spent after striking the above building, and very littlo damage was done beyond. Several shade trees along the streets and in the yards of private residences, fruit trees and timber in the woods adjacent to town were blown down by the force of the storm. A shade tree opposito tho resi? dence of Mr. Jack Wilson was blown on tho top of the portico, and broke it in. Tho beau? tiful grape arbor of M. Lesser was leveled to the ground, and some fences on the outskirts were demolished. In tho surrounding country very little damage was done, save tho uproot? ing of some timber, and the breaking down of | a few fences. Strange to say, this storm was unaccompanied with lightning or rain, else more serious damage would have ensued. The loss to the Hon. J. P. Reed, the owner of the Waverley building, will amount up to about two hundred dollars. Some parties who were out traveling during tho prevalence of the storm, state that at times they were lifted from the ground by the strength of the blasts, and one party had to seize a post and hold on to it for nearly half an hoar. DISASTROUS EIRE. The alarm of fire aroused our citizens at three o'clock on yesterday morning, when it was ascertained that the largo building near the market-house on Main street, belonging to Mr. John R. Cochran, was in possession of the flames. The progress of the fire was al? ready too great to save the building or rescue any considerable portion of its contents, and every effort was directed to the preservation of adjacent buildings. The rosidenco of Mr. A. P. Hubbard was in imminent danger, and a number of houses in closo proximity were ?kewise imperilled. Tho burning building was consumed most rapidly, and in less than half an hour the greatest danger was over. It was a two-story building, and the walls of the lower story wore made of brick. Tho upper rooms wore not finished, and tho lower rooms were occupied respectively by M. Heldmann as a saddle and harness establishment, by J. It. Cochran as a store-room, and by Caleb Lovin good as a shoe shop. Mr. Heldmann's loss is estimated at several hundred dollars, includ? ing his tools and stock on hand. His severest misfortune, however, is the total loss of his account books. Mr. Cochran's loss is much greater, including a stock of goods and planta? tion supplies worth ?2,500. The loss of Caleb Lovingood, a colored man, will not exceed seventy-five dollars. We understand that the building was in? sured in the Niagara Insurance Company, New York, for $2,300, and Mr. Cochran's goods were insured in the Germania Insuranco Com? pany for $2,500. The other parties wero not insured. The origin of the fire is unknown, but strong suspicions are entertained that it is tho work of an incendiary, and immediato steps will bo taken to unravel tho mystery. The rapidity with which the building was destroyed did not admit enough investigation to clearly indicate the precise spot where tho firo originated, yet the general opinion seems to bo that the lower story was ablaze at tho outset. Our entire population, white and colored, worked manfully to save other property from destruction, and the owners are duly grateful for generous and kindly assistance rendered. COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES. Tho commencement exercises of the Caro? lina Collegiate Institute will take place on the 14th and 15th of July, when we hopo to seo a large attendance of the friends and patrons of | this popular institution. The number of stu? dents on the roll this ye&r shows an increased attendance, with flattering prospects for the future. As the charter was only obtained last year, there has been no regular commencement heretofore, and hence this may be termed tho inauguration of such occasions in our midst since the war. Essays will bo read by young ladies, on subjects approved by the Faculty and young men and boys will deliver spoeches, original and selected. Five young ladies will receive diplomas as graduates, and certificates of distinction will be awarded to those of suffi? cient merit. Wo are indebted to Prof. Ligon, President of tho Faculty, for a statement of the order of exercises, which is as follows : On Wednesday evening, 14th of July, there will be speeches and essays by under-gradu ates. On Thursday morning, 15th of July, a lite? rary address will be delivered by Gen. John D. Kennedy, of Camden, S. 0. On Thursday evening, the graduating exor? cises will tako place, including tho composi? tions to be read by the young ladies of the graduating class, and conferring diplomas by the President of the Faculty. BURNED TO DEATH. Wo learn that a child of aboutsix months old, belonging to a colored woman who resides on tho promises of J. C. C. Featherston, Esq., was so badly burned on Tuesday night, tho 15th inst., that it died on Thursday morning last.? It seems that tho colored woman was callod in? to the dwelling houso for some purpose on tho abovo night, and boforo going sho gavo a light? ed candle to tho child to play with, it being on tho bed at tho timo. Sho had not been very long in tho. houso until sho heard screams, and upon going out discovered that the bed cloth? ing was on firo, and tho child burning. Tho flames wore soon extinguished, and tho child was found to bo badly burned on the side and neck, from which it expired on Thursday morning. This is ono of the greatest acts of carelessness that we have over heard of. A Card. The undersigned takes this method of re? turning sincere thanks for tho invaluablo assis? tance given to him by numerous citizens du? ring tho progress of the tiro this (Wednesday) morning. Their efforts are duly appreciated, and will bo gratefully remembered. A. P. HUBBARD. June 23, 1875. THE TIC NIC AT HONE A PATH The announcement that a pic nie would be given at Hbnea Path on Saturday last by the ? Uood Templars and Patrons of Husbandry brought togcthor a large concourse of ladies I and gentlemen, representing the youth, beauty and manhood of Anderson, Abboville, Green Villo and Laurens, who were intent upon social and intellectual enjoyment. The committee J of arrangements made ample preparations to I accommodate a large crowd, and between live and six hundred persons were present to test the hospitality of the neighborhood, which Was fully equal to the occasion. A stand was erec? ted in tho beautiful grove adjacent to the churches, and comfortable seats provided for tho audience. Tho exercises began at cloven o'clock, and were opened with prayer by Rev. L. W. Trible. The meeting was presided over by Capt. G. M. Mattison, who introduced tho speakers, and made himself generally useful throughout the day. Mr. E. B. Murray was tho first speaker, and as he was selected by the Good Templars, it was his province to advocate the cause of Tem? perance, which duty was performed with de? cided ability and satisfaction. He showed the deleterious effects of alcoholic stimulants upon tho moral, intellectual and physical nature of mankind; tho baneful Influence of intempe? rance upon society; the evils resulting from the use of ardent spirits, and the necessity for organized effort to exterminate and eradicate this growing evil from our midst. His speech was listened to with much interest, and we trust that its earnest arguments and convin? cing proof will yield abundant fruit. Col. D. Wyatt Aiken was next introduced, and made a plain, forcible and practical speech, replete with facts and incidents to show the necessity for co-operation among the farmers, and extolling tho Grange as a means of en? lightening the understanding, expanding the social qualities and elevating the general con? dition of the farming community. His expe? rience and observation qualify him to instruct an audience on tho subject of agriculture, and wc havo no doubt that many will profit large? ly by the words of wisdom and sagacity to which he gave utterance. Indeed, it was such a speech as we might wish that every farmor in the up-country could have boon privileged to hear and enjoy, and we are confident that all who were present will give assent to this expression. "When Col. Aikon concluded, the dinner was announced, and the throng repaired to the ta? bles, which were arranged in a square, and well laden with the choicest edibles. Perfect decorum and propriety were maintained, and the entire audieuco were abundantly supplied. It was a complete success in every respect, and we wore more than gratified at tho good order which prevailed throughout tho day, as reflect? ing infinite credit upon Honea Path and tho surrounding country. After dinner, the audi? ence ro-assembled at the.staud, and the writer was introduced by Capt. Mattison, but nut be? ing prepared to make a speech, we concluded to spare them any infliction, and made our de? sultory remarks exceedingly brief and scatter? ing. The youths and maidens went to speak? ing afterwards to each othor, and we left thorn enjoying this attractivo portion of the enter? tainment. REAL ESTATE AGENCY, ANDERSON COUNTY, 1 Jr.vK 7, 1S75.
