THE INTELLIGENCER. LOCAL MATTERS. BRIEF MENTION. Both editors are away this week, and any improvement in the Intelligencer for this issue may be attributed to the "devil," who has full "sway for a brief season. The Elberton Ga??e says that J F. Craft, on the Savannah River, is running four boats regularly to Augusta, and at one ship? ment last week he carried 300 bales of cotton. The Timmonsville Newt records the death of Rev. Allen McCorquodale, an aged and - highly respected minister of the South Caro? lina Conference, who died in Bishopville on Saturday, 13th inst, after a protracted ill? ness. The deceased was a native of Scot? land, and was well known to many of our readers. The Spartonburg Sparton, in speaking of the anniversary orations before the literary societies of Wofford College, pays a high compliment to our young friend, Mr. J., G. Clinkscales, who was chosen orator of the Preston Literary Society, and acquitted him? self with great credit. We have been informed by Col. J. Cox Gass that there will be a drove of fine Ten? nessee hogs at this place about next Wednes? day or Thursday. This news will be hailed with delight by the lovers of sausage and chitterlings. We do not know at what price they are to be sold. Saleday in December promises to be an important one in Anderson. There is to be a very large quantity of land sold by the Sheriff, and there will be a mass meeting in the interests of the Blue Ridge Railroad. It is probable more persons will be here on that day than have assembled at Anderson at one time in several years. The Greenville Neun states that a colored boy named John Johnson, supposed to be from-Andaman County, offered a steer for sale one day last week in Greenville. The low price at which the animal was offered excited the suspicion of Capt Greer, chief of police, and he arrested Johnson, who con? fessed he had stolen the animal from Mr. A. Rice, of Anderson County. Johnson mode his escape; but Capt." Greer has the steer, awaiting the owner. A note from Mr. M. W. Newton informs us that he had the luck of tilling on eagle on his premises, near the line of Pickens and Anderson, the other day. The bird measured seven feet from tip to tip, had claws three inches long, and a beak neat three inches, very hooked. He saw the eagle alight to the ground, and threw a rock, which struck it on the head and killed it instantly. A postal card from the proprietor and manager of the Clara Wiklman Theatrical Company informs us that this troup will be In Anderson in the course of a few days. This neews will he received with delight by our citizens, and especially by those whose Ljood fortune it was to attend the Splendid entertainments of tms Company during their visit to this place last winter. Come ahead, Clara, and we bespeak for you a lib? eral patronage. We are requested to state that services wfll be?conducted in the Presbyterian church at Belton, by appointment of the Presbytery of South Carolina, by the follow? ing ministers of that church: .Rev. D. L\ Frierson, third Sabbath in December; Rev. Wm. C. Smith, third Sabbath in January; Rev. Mr! Glasgow, fifth Sabbath in Janua? ry; Rev. Hugh McLees, third Sabbath in February; Rev. Robert Bead, third Sabbath in March. The bridges over the Railroad cut in town are in bad order, with the exception of the road bridge on Main Street, and should, if possible, be attended to. McDuffie JStreet has for some time been stopped up by its unsafe bridge, and the sidewalk bridge on Main Street is -decayed and insecure, though it is used without any immediate appearance of danger. * Our town authorities should try. once more to look after our interests by in? ducing^ compelling the railroad company to re-build them. We . arc much gratified at the deserved promotion of our friend and townsman, Mr. A. B. Towers, who was elected last week to ^"?iJieltonorable position of Grand Worthy Patriarch of the Sons of Temperance in South Carolina. He was the unanimous choice of the delegates, we understand, and we are confident will meet their expecta? tions as the head of the-order. For more than a quarter of a century, Mr. Towers has iilustra ted the principles of this noble insti? tution in his daily walk and conservation, and pro von himself unfaltering in principle and serious in good works. Such men de? serve the honors of their associates. Our enterprising townsman, Maj. A. R. . Broylee, has recently purchased the splendid plantation, known as the Maxwell place, lying about three miles above the town of Townville, for which he paid the sum of $4,000 cash. While ws will regret very much to see the Major leave Anderson, we cannot refrain from congratulating the peo -ple of the Fork unon so valuable an addi? tion to their already large number of suc? cessful and enterprising farmers. We un? derstand, however, that Maj. Broyles does not intend removing to his new home until the latter part of next year. We learn that the Sons of Temperance of this place contemplate giving a fair or hot supper during the Christmas holidays, for the purpose of raising funds to cid them in miking additional improvements on their hall. Committees have been appointed to wait upon our citizens and solicit donations in the way of edibles or fancy work, and hi fact any thing that will be of service to them in making their entertainment a success. A? this entertainment will be given in the interest of so noble and praise worthy a cause as that of temperanc?, we hope that our citizens, and especially the ladies, will re? spond liberally tc the call for assistance. We have already noticed the fact that Mr. J. Karle Lewis was quite successful at the Georgia State Fair. A correspondent of the Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel referred to Mr. Lewis in the following terms: "The walking match was not exciting, but J. Eorle Lewis, the blooded horse and thorough-brad cattle raiser, of Oconec Coun? ty, S. C, put in his beautiful blooded black co?t, "Raven," whose superb walking took the $50 premium, and won universal com? mendation. Mr. L. has done a good thing for the Fair by his display of cattle and horses, and ought to be a Georgian." We obi sent from the latter part of this sentence, as we cannot spare Mr. Lewis from t his"sido of the Savannah River, where he is doing a good work by his example and energy in the stock line. Messrs. Seibcls & Ezell, of Columbia, on Wednesday, 24th inst, began the sale of a large number of valuable lots and farms in and around Seneca City. This growing town is situated at the crossing of the Air line and Blue Ridge Railroads in Oconee County, as our readers are aware, and in one of the healthiest and most delightful sec? tions of the country. The water, the air, the scenery, the railway facilities, the quali? ty of the soil, and the iron and gold mines in the immediate vicinity, combine to make the property at that place desirable to set? tlers. The Bale will be continued until all the lots are disposed of, and arrangements have been made with the railroads for ex? cursion tickets at one fare. COUNTY ASSESSMENT. We axe indebted to Mr. J. H. von Hasslen, the efficient clerk of our County Auditor, for the elaborate tabular statement of the assessment for Anderson County published in another column, which shows the value of the personal property in the County to? gether with the value of its annual crop. The period for which the assessment was made was from July 1st, 1S74, to June 1st, 1875, making only eleven months, and hence it is smaller in many respects than it would otherwise have been. It only represents eleven months of business instead of twelve, and it so happens that the entire wheat crop of this year is excluded from the assessment. The time hereafter will be from June to June of each year. the express company. The following have been the receipts of the Southern Express Company for business done in this County during the period from July 1st, 1874, to June 1st, 1675, as shown at the several railroad stations given below: Anderson C. H., $450; Pendleton, $350; Belton, $170; Williamston, $140; Honea Path, $100; making a total of $1,210. insurance companies. The following is a statement of the busi? ness done by Insurance Companies in this County from July 1st, 1874, to June 1st, 1875: TJnderwiters agency, $2,474; Pied? mont and Arlington Life Insurance Com? pany, $1,199; Georgia Home, $1,036; Ni? agara Fire Insurance Company, $926; Con? tinental Fire Insurance Company, $320; Iiiverpool and London Globe Insurance Company, $530; Manhattan Fire Insurance Company, $32; St Louis Insurance Com? pany, $500. Making a total of $7,017 paid annually to Life and Fire Insurance Com? panies in this County. rai leo ad companies.

A STATEMENT. As the attorney who represented the County Commissioners in the case against a numb.'r of citizens of the Fork township for not performing road duty, we deem it our dutv to all the parties that we should make a brief statement of the facts, without taking a ay sides upon the question, that the public may see the caso from an impartial seand point ? Sometime about the latter part of October last, the gentlemen whose names appear to an articles upon this subject in this issue, were reported to the district highway over? seer for violation of the road law in refusing to work upon a certain road under the di? rections of the captain of the hands. The highway overseer reported the case to the Commissioners, and one of them ordered the parties, who were reported as violators of the law, to be indicted. When the cap? tain of the hands was ordered to indict these parties he took the warrants out before Trial Justice Whitefield, and when the case came on for trial an attempt was made to transfer it to the Fork township. This, however, failed, and as all the witnesses on both sides were present, and as the jury was composed of some of our best and most intelligent citi-. zens, the trial was undoubtedly, a fair one, though it may have been an inconvenience to the defendants to come to the Court House-for trial After the testimony was adduced it was evident that it would not in ' any event justify the conviction of Messrs. R. T. Barton, J. T. Compton and T. S. Cole, and therefore the prosecution was nolproued as to them. The only persons against whom there was testimony to convict were Messrs. J. R. Callaham and J. A. P. Barton. We do not propose to comment upon the conviction of the parties. The facts as to Mr. Barte n are correct as stated, except that he was wi.rned out with one set of hands, and disregarded the warning to accept a second warning from another source. The facts stated with regard to the conduct of the captain of the hands agreeing to disre? gard any instructions to re-work that road were relied upon to excuse the defendants, but of course it was decided that while it might malte the captain liablemimself it did not excuse! any one else. Rev. A. N. Experidon, a Bulgarian Priest of the Greek Church, is tntvelling through this State as a missionary frqm bis religious sect He is a Turk, is said to be an accom? plished man lH literature, and indulges in oriental customs and costume much to the amusement of those with whom he comes in contact. He is delivering a series of lec? tures upon Nature, Palestine, Babylon, Per? sia, &c., which are spoken of as fine produc? tions. He is announced to deliver a lecture in Andersen this (Thursday) evening, ac? cording to a notice posted a few days ago. The Sumter Watchman describes his appear? ance and mission as folio wn: "The appear? ance of this stranger on our streets, in his Turkish-priestly garb?straight black gown, extending below his knees, small red cap and long hair, with satchel swung from his shoulder and double-barrel shot-gun?natu? rally attracted attention. His minute, ready and easy description of Jerusalem, Calvary, Bethlehem, the Jordan, with the mountains and valleys contiguous, were specially in? teresting, the whole, with his physiognomy and speech, showing him to be a highly ed? ucated and pious Turk."
