LOCAL MATTERS.
A MERRY CHRISTMAS :
Old Santa Clans will again greet his nu- j
nicrous admirers! It seems so short a time
since tho mythical friend of innocence and
goodness went his rounds, and gladdened I
the hearts of the little ones with the dainties
and nick-nacks of the season. To them it
appears an age, no doubt, but to the rest of j
mankind, who have passed beyond the stage J
of childhood's enjoyment, the whirligig of
time revolves more rapidly as descending
years bring the anxieties and responsibilities
of maturer life. The dullness and dreariness j
of the times will bring to mind the necessity!
i for eschewing costly remembrances cf the I
season, but neither adversity nor hardships I
' of an unusual degree should make us forget
the pleasures and gratifications of the Christ-1
mas tide, viewed from childhood's eyrie
height, where naught of life's ills and trou-1
hies can ever reach, bnt where the sunshine
of hope enkindles the heart and brings joy-1
ous anticipations with the advent of Santa
Claus, whose genial, sparkling face ought to I
be mirrored in the countenances of his che
sen almoners. We are a firm believer in the I
ancient custom and legendary story which I
, connects the season, so long honored in our
Southern clirr.e, with bounteous gifts to cbil- I
dren 1 It bloss ess the giver, and enlarges hi? I
sympathy for tho prattling youngsters, who
are to life's burdens the most soothingpana
cea, if we would only understand their ways j
and enter more largely into their plans. The J
old-time hospitality, moreover, is too often
neglected and forgotten, andChristnus is
made to wear a different appearance from
the long ago when neighbors were wont to
greet t heir neighbors with friendly smile and
genuine welcome. In many cases, poverty j
and depression will explain the cause, but
we are losing many features of our Southern j
civilization, and trilling as it- may appear, j
we are giving up to our discredit a most im
portant feature when Christmas, with its so- j
cial benefits and joyous relaxation, is allow
ed to be crushed with the fearful tide off
changing ideas, which has submerged our J
population since the war. We cannot par
.sue the subject farther just now, yet could
riot refrain from' pointing a moral as the ]
merry season again approaches. With sin-1
ccrest wishes that our numerous readers
may enjoy the fullest realization of their]
hopes, and aid in blessings bestowed upon
? worthy recipients, we give them a Christmas ]
greeting! . j
BE IK? MENTION.
Firecrackers every night admonish one ]
that Christmas is coming!
Preparations are making to hold the Tern- I
perance Fidr in the Masonic Hall.
The hricige across Rocky River near this j
place has l>een completed, and is a very sub-1
stantial structure.
In order to give the employees of this ]
office a brief respite from their labors, only ]
a half sheet will be issued next week.
The streets are again lighted from tho
street lam]*, and pedestrianism around the I
public srm no on dark nights is not so dim- {
[cult.
We are requested to mention that the ser-1
vices of the Episcopal Church, at this place,
will be read on Sunday next by Mr. John ]
DttVis.
Our friends in the country will bear in I
mind the. agreement among the merchants 1
and business men to close their stores and [
places of business on Saturday and Monday, j
Messrs. M. L. Fant & Co. announce this
week that they have a complete supply of
Christmas presents, in the way of toys, Ac.
Those desiring to uecure presents for their I
children would do well to give them a call. I
The'ordinance against cattle running at
large has been re-enacted by the Town j
Council, and owners of lean and hungry ]
tine are reminded to look, well to its pro
visions, besides looking out for provision i to I
keep their stock from suffering.
Mr. Lawrence Clinkscalea, son of Mr.
Frank Clinkscales, formerly of this County, I
but more recently residing near Lowndes- ]
ville, in Abbeville county, was thrown from j
his horse on last Sunday, and received inju- I
rieft, by the fall, from which ho died in a few ]
hoars.
The Anderson Journal is tho title of a new
paper which will be issued early in January
by Messrs. R. Edmund Belcher and EL Pre*
ton Earle?these gentlemen having entered
into partnership for that purpose. The Sun J
will is discontinued, and the new paper will ]
take its place.
The Masonic fraternity were enjoying "re- I
freshmenta" on Monday evening?tho occa- j
sion being the election and installation of
officers in Wynne Council, No. 4, Royal and
Select Masten. An elegant supper was
served in the Masonic Hall and the "iwlect" j
and "faithful" were on hand.
An excursion train from, the up-country j
to Charleston on last Monday proved a fail- I
ure, compared with the great success in Oc- ]
tober. Not more than fifty or aixty passen?
gers were aboard the train when it reached I
. Ninety-Six, although the cars might have
accommodated five or rix hundred.
The Anderson Intelligencer stands upon its j
record as a faithful sentinel and unfaltering I
' friend of the" people?the industrioui, the J
worthy and the substantial elements of our j
population. It never resorts to clap-trap or J
humbug, and seoks to be jndged by its ac?
tual merits?not upon vague and indefinite I
promises.
We regret to learn that R. W. Simpson,
Esq., member of the House of Represent* - I
tfves, has been compelled to return* home on I
account of sickness. He ia suffering from a ]
throat affection, which gives him much pain
and uneasiness. Mr. Simpson ia an efficient
and active member of the Legislature, and j
his absence from tho House is sincerely re- I
greeted by his colleagues and friends. We
wish him a speedy recover}-.
The revenue officers in this County have
been actively engaged in the war upon
whiskey wagons lately. On Saturday last,
officer Grant arrested three persons charged
with selling without license, and on Tuesday
two other persons, whose names are un?
known, WON arrested for the same offence.
Christmas is near at hand, and these wagons
are passing through the country to supply
Christmas whiskey. They should be pre?
vented from entering our County at all by
the arrest and punishment of all who are
guilty.
On Saturday evening next the Carolina
Minstrel Troupe will give one of their per?
formances in the Masonic Hall at Belton,
commencing at "i o'clock. Tho entertain?
ment promises to be an interesting one.
There will alao be an address from Col. W.
D. "Wilkes, and an entertainment in tha way
of Charades, on the following Tuesday eve?
ning, nt the same place and hour. The com?
pany of performers are residents of Belton,
and those who attend will no doubt find tho
address of Col. Wilkes instructive and the
Performance pleasant. On Thursday, at the
same place, there will be a Fair, given under
the direction of Belton Division, No. 02,
Sons of Temperance. The object of all these
entertainments is a bcnovolcnt one, and we
hope they will each meet with abundant
success. The price of admission will be
fifty cents on each evening.
"..'EE ANNUAL COMMUNICATION OF THE
GRAND LODGE A. F. K.
The Grand Ledge of Ancient Freemasons
of South Carolina held its annual commu?
nication in the city of Charleston, beginning

sure, Deputv Grand Master; B. W. Ball,
Senior Grand Warden; Augustine T.Smythe,
Junior Grand Warden- John H. Honour,
Grand Treasurer; Charles Inglesby, Grand
Secretary; Rev. W. S. Bowman, Grand
Chaplain; Zimmerman Davis and W, H.
D. Gaillard, Senior Grand Deacons; T. B.

cons; A. Coward, Grand Marshal; B. J.
Witherspoon, Grand Pursuivant; E. T.
Westmoreland and D. T. Barr, Grand Stew?
ards ; W. A. Wilson, Grand Tiler.
One hundred and fifty-eight subordinate
lodges were represented at the opening of
the session, ana several other delegates were
enrolled afterwards, making the fullest rep?
resentation since the war.
The annual address of the Grand Master
was listened to with marked attention, and
embraced a review of his official acts daring
the past year, with suggestions for the con?
sideration of the Grand Lodge upon impor?
tant topics, inclc ding the subject of non?
payment of dues, membership in more than
oae Lodge, the Washington National Mon?
ument, and other measures of interest to
the craft. The Grand Master returned his
sincere thanks to the craft for their uniform
kindness and courtesy during his term of
office,, and in closing his address declined a
re-election. The address was referred to a
committee of three, consisting of J. D. Ken
h'jdy, O. L. Schumpertand W. A. Wardlaw.
. The annual reports of the Grand Treas?
urer, Grand Secretary, Hall Committee and
Special Financial Agent were read and re?
ferred to appropriate committees. These
reports indicate that the finances of the
Grand Lodge are steadily improving, exhib- j
iting great assiduity on the part of the offi?
cers in maintaining strict economy in ex?
penditures and careful management of its
resources, and sugjesting the hope that in a
few years the financial affairs of the Grand
Lxlge will be relieved from embarrassment
and difficulty. Only a smell floating in?
debtedness remains to be extinguished, and
when this is accomplished, the interest on
the bonded debt can be punctually paid, and
a portion of the Masonic Temple itocfc re- J
tired from year to year.
The Grand Master announced the standing
committees, whio>> ended the morning ses- j
sion, when the craft were called flam labor j
to refreshment. The evening session was
occupied mainly in receiving reports of the J
committees, to wkom were referred sundry J
documents, and the reports of tie District

SPECIAL NOTICES.
Prepare for Winter.
Don't let the old winds of winter find
your windo;rs without iiashes, or good whole
doors, but have them fitted at once: rom the
manufactory of Mr. P. P. TOALE, whose
advertisement is in.another column.
He is also sole agent for the "National
Mixed Paint Co.," who warrant their paint
not to crack, peel or fade. Any one can ap?
ply it.
"The Boys in Grey."
We were wont to admire the boys, who
wore the grey, though it was not for the grey
alone, but for the noble, chivalrous hearts
that beat under it. They commanded- the
admiration of the true and the brave in every
land. But how few admire a fine head en?
veloped in grey hair and whiskers?very few.
We all love adnnration and nothing in oar
appearance isi more calculated to secure it
than pretty hair. If old age, sickness or
lorrow has robbed you of it,you can regain'
it by the use of Db. Tutx'h Haib D \ce. Its
popularity is so great that it can bo found
an the shelves of every druggist in the land.
Remember This.
Now is the time of the- year for Paeumo
aia, Lung Fever,"Coughs, Colds, and fatal
results of Dredisposition to.. Consumption

jhbe's German Syrup has been hsed in this

without a single failure to cure. If you
have not used this medicine vourself, go to
ronr Druggist, Wilhite & Williams, and ask
him of ite wonderful success among Iiis cus?
tomers. Two doses will relieve the worst
?se.. If you have no faith iu any medicine,
iust buy a Sample Bottle of Bo?chec's Ger?
