BRIEF MENTION, The regular meeting of Pomona Grange, Patrons'of Husbandry, will be held at this place on Saturday, 1st of April. A considerable hail and wind storm passed below Anderson on last Sunday afternoon. The hail,' however, was small, and no serious damage was done by it. We are requested to announce that there will be a Temperance Celebration at Sandy Springs Grange Hall on next Saturday, at one. o'dock,_..under the auspices of the Lebanon Division. Adddresses may be ex? pected, and the public are invited to attend. The Brushy Creek Democratic 'Club will hold its next meeting at Mountain Spring school-house on the fourth Saturday in this month, 26th inst., at two o'clock p. m., for the'purpose of electing delegates to the County Convention to be held in April. : The Rock Mills Democratic Club will hold its next meeting at Providence camp ground on Saturday, 29th inst., at two o'clock p. m., and a full attendance of the members is requested. All persons in favor, of an hqpest. government are solicited to unite with the/dub. .The.Anderson Brass Band furnished ex? cellent music from the upper piazza of the Benson House Co*".er on Saturday after? noon. A number of young ladies have re? quested us. to hint to the Band that a repeti? tion of the music will be most agreeable at least once a week, and they suggest Friday afternoon. One of our young ladies, who is counting grey horses and much interested in the leap- ? year business, made a sad mistake last week by looking for the eclipse on Friday night, when that important event took place the night beforftjj It was not a. device to blind the old folks,- for the waiting maiden was alone in her vigils. The time for the; collection of taxes has been extended for fifteen days, during which time persons can pay without the penalty. ?Up to this time over. $68,000 has been paid in this County by 5,650 taxpayers, leaving about 600 persons who have not yet paid. Persons should arrange to pay their tax be? fore the first of April, and thereby save the penalty and cost of execution, &c. There will be an eclipse of the sun on Sat? urday, the 25th inst. visible hi North America. It will be annular in the North? west. The eclipse will begin at fifty min? utes past four in the afternoon and continue about an hour and a half. Persons wishing to watch.the eclipse should prepare them? selves with smoked glasses through which to view the sun without inconvenience to the eyes. Mrs. Leckart, wife of Stanislaus Leckart, . a recent Polish Immigrant, died suddenly on the premises of E. J. Earie, Esq., of this County, on last Friday morning, leaving two small children?the younger only a few Months old. The situation of Mr. Leckart, a stranger in a strange land, unable to speak English, and with two small children on his bands, appeals strongly to the sympathies of the charitable. The following notice was seen posted con? spicuously on the entrance gate to & wealthy gentleman's plantation in Georgia: "Plbzs Kwkp up thx Boss." Although the erudite African overseer meant to keep up the "bars," yet we think a literal reading is quite good, as it would be a desirable thing in these degenerate days for a large-sized plantation to keep up the "boss," instead of the reverse being true. The sun enters the Zodiacal constellation Aries at twenty minutes past one o'clock, on next Monday morning. This is the Vernal Equinox, and marks the beginning of spring. From the remarkable seasons just past it is impossible for ns to form any idea or the weather by the season, for we have been having spring-like weather through most of the winter. Many persons fear'we wiB yet have winter where we ought to have spring. We are requested to state that a meeting will be held at N. 0. Farmer's Store on Sat-, urday, 25th inst., at two o'clock p. m., for the ? purpose of perfecting the organization of the "Fork Democratic Club," and transacting other important business, including the elec? tion of delegates to tbe County Convention. All persons who are in favor of honest and correct government, and are willing to unite with the Democratic party to accomplish that object, are urgently requested to attend the proposed meeting. TOWN TAXES. We are indebted to Mr. James H. Bewley, clerk of tbe Town Council, for a statement of the taxation on all real and personal property, including street tax, in the town of Anderson for the present year. Tbe total levy is $2,236.91, of which amount there has been collected $1775.25?leaving balance un? expected, $461.66. The total number of tax? payers is 382, of which number 267 have paid their taxes, leaving 115 delinquents. The Town Council has $900 on hand at this time, and the indebtedness of the town is about $400?of this amount $350 was in? curred in the pn rebate of real estate by pre? ceding Councils. THE CHARADES AT PENDLETON. On last Tuesday evening the citizens of Pendleton enjoyed a very pleasant entertain? ment in the way of charades, given in Max? well's Hall by amateurs for the benefit of the Cornet Band, which has recently been organized there. Tbe Hall, which is not a large one, has been rented by the Band for this year, and has recently been fitted up by them with a well-arranged stage and other conveniences for the purpose of having these entertainments, which they propose repeating at convenient intervals in tbe future. The performance in question con? sisted in the rendition of the charades, "The Boston Dip," "Never Say Dye," "Mistake" and "Seeing the Elephant" in a manner to please the audience in the highest degree. The young ladies and gentlemen, most of whom appeared for the first time before the public, acquitted themselves most creditably, and evinced marked theatrical talent. The attendance was very good indeed, and the crowd frequently attested its appreciation of tbe excellence of the performance by loud bursts of applause. The charades were a decided success, and all engaged in them may congratulate themselves upon having afforded the public a deligbtfnl evening, in addition to extending very material aid to ! the object for which they were gotten up. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. On Wednesday night, 8th inst., the alarm of fire whs given between eleven and twelve o'clock, when it was discovered that the large brick building on Main street belong? ing to Capt. John W. Daniels, and occupied as a black smith and carriage shop by Messrs. J. L. Fa it <fc Co., was in flames. The fire originated in the lower story, and when it was discovered a small quantity of water might have extinguished the flames, if there had been any appliances under control of an organization. The result shows how completely unprotected we are against the fire-fiend, but the vigorous, manly efforts of our citizens to save the residence of Mr. T. J. Leak, which proved entirely successful, demonstrates the value and Importance of organized, effective work. The flames spread too rapidly to save any? thing of value from the building, and hence there is a total loss, amounting in the aggre? gate to $2,000, which is equally divided between Capt. Daniels and Messrs. Fant & Co. Besides the tools and materials of the latter, a considerable quantity of completed work was consumed. No insurance upon the building or its contents. The commu? nity deeply sympathizes with the sufferers, and has manifested in a practical way the strongest evidences of its disposition towards Messrs Fant & Co., who ore deserving men of limited means. Capt. Daniels not long ago made 3ome valuable repairs upon the building, and was preparing to insure with one of the agencies here, a survey having been made for that purpose. All classes of our citizens as usual worked strenuously to arrest the fire, and only their efforts preven? ted a much greater conflagration. It is gen? erally supposed that the fire was accidental. THE BAPTISTS OF THE UNITED STATES. The Baptist Year Book for 1878, recently issued by the American Baptist Publication Society of Philadelphia, contains some in? teresting sta tistics of the Baptist denomina? tion, which will prove acceptable to our readers of that faith, and hence we transfer them to our columns. In the year 1770 there were in the United States, which were then under colonial government, about one hundred Baptist churches. One hundred years before there were only about a dozen churches of this denomination. In 1784, just after we had conquered our indepen? dence of Great. Britain, there were 471 churches, 424 ministers, and 35,000 church members. At this time there are about 22,000 churches, about 14,000 ministers, and nearly 2,000,000 church members. Of this number 1,000,000 are embraced within States sending delegates to the Southern Baptist Convention. In the year 1875 the denomi? nation sustained 158 foreign and India." mis? sionaries, 940 native missionary preachers, ,745 mission churches, which contain 57,883 members. Besides, home missionary work has been sustained all over the country, at a great expense. There are nine theological seminaries, thirty-three colleges and uni? versities, and about fifty seminaries, insti? tutes and female colleges under control of the denomination. Also, two publication societies, one in Memphis and the other in Philadelphia, together with fifty newspapers and periodicals. There are about 10,000 Sunday Schools, containing over 600,000 scholars, and there was contributed for benevolent purposes, last year, about $4,000, 000. These Diets show the interest of the Baptists in sp reading the gospel at home and abroad, in disseminating knowledge, pro? moting education, and enlarging influences for the religious training of the young. For tha Anderton Intelligencer. A Word to the Patrons of Husbandry. TowNviXLB, 8. C, March 6th, 1876. Messrs. Editors : I wish to say a word to the Patrons and farmers generally on agricul? ture. The time has come when something must be done, for this branchx>f industry is rather at a low standard, and seems as if it will go lower. Many of our farmers are bankrupt, others tottering, with only one false step to crush them, while there are a few who stand firm and make money. Now, I wish to notice the cause of this. Are the farmers behind the times, and have not the improvements of the age to assist them? No, this will not do. Hundreds of talented men are bringing all kinds of im? provements before the farmers almost daily; all kinds of products raised on the farm are seasonably high; the great order of Patrons of Husbandry has spread itself over our country, and the farmer has the benefits of it. Why, then, are we not prospering? The answer is the same that has sounded in your ears, time and again. That we, like other men, send to the West for flour and bacon instead of growing it at home. It is a sure thing if we do not look to our own interest and quit sending our money off to buy these products, we are ruined. No people can stand to buy more than they sell. How many of our farmers are ruined by the de? lusive belief that one acre planted in cotton will buy more flour and corn than can be grown on two ? .but look around you and see if it has proved so; every man's own experience will certainly teach him better. Anything raised at home with a reasonable amount of labe r, is much cheaper than to buy it. at almost any price. Make your calculations on paper, and it seems as if it would pay a handsome profit; but try it. and then you will be convinced, for surely there is a vast difference in paying the ready money and growing it Many of us, too, buy largely cf guano, which I am satisfied does not pay without the most skillful man? agement. It is much better to buy only a small quantity for composting, which is equally as good with one-half the cost. We grumble at the hard times?that the labor is unmanagable, money scarce, etc. Well, the labor is not as good as we would like, but this is not the whole cause of the scar? city of money?it is raising cotton and that alone. The market is glutted, and the result is, cotton low, provisions high and no money to buy with. The money passes through the farmers' hands, but unfortu? nately none remains. Let the Patrons of Husbandry come to the front, and set the example of living at home and making cot? ton as a surplus. Let us so w down our lands in small grain, raise as much corn as possi? ble and improve our stock?pay more atten? tion to raising hogs and horses.. We can never prosper while we pay out so much money for these things, and the worst fea? ture is, the money all leaves the country and does no body any good. Let every good farmer club with the Intelligencer and take some good agricultural journal, and profit by the experience of others, for experiment? ing for information on farming is rather ex? pensive. Let us all move on together, and change the present state of affairs. T. G. For the Anderton Intelligencer, Williamston Female College Entertain? ment. Messrs. Editors: Allow me space in your excellent paper to say that the Erosophic Society of the Williamston Female College, assisted by the Kindergarten Department of the same institution, propose to give an en? tertainment on the evenings of tbe 24th and 25th of the present month, in the Col? lege Chapel, in the interest of furnishing the hall of the Society. They will charge an admission fee of fifty cents. This is to be? speak the interest of the intelligent public iu this praiseworthy enterprise, and to ven? ture (?) the opinion and prophecy that the investment of their required entrance fee will prove at once satisfactory and safe. Let me, in passing, call attention to this excellent institution of learning, which is so steadily and ?worthily gaining on public patronage and favor. The Rev. Mr. Landor, assisted by Mr. Weber, formerly the pastor of the Methodist congregation of your town, and by seven lady teachers?four in the literary department and three in the music ?is constantly adding to the many existing useful features of the College such others as his experience may suggest or his means will allow. The kindergarten, under the efficient and enthusiastic management of Miss Wagner, late of Charleston, is a pro? nounced success. The music department, under the thoroughly competent direction of Misses H?gen and Purvis, and Mrs. Lander, is having enlarged prosperity. About fifty young ladies are taking lessons in instrumental music. The school is strict? ly, as it proposes to be, unsectarian. Not owned nor controlled by any church, and yet owned and controlled by Christian gen? tlemen of several churches, it affords Chris? tian culture without denominational inter? ference or bias. It deserves well of our peo? ple, and its enlarging prosperity cannot but prove gratifying to every well-wisher to the best interests of the country. CORRESPONDENT. ACTION OP THE HONEA PATH CLUB The Honea Path Democratic Club met on Saturday last, 11th inst., when the following resolutions were adopted: Resolved, That we, the Democratic Club at Honea Path, do appoint five members of our Club to attend the Democratic Conven? tion, to meet at Anderson C. H. on the 15th day of April next, to noimnate delegates to meet the State Democratic Convention, to convene in Columbia, S. C, on the 4th day of May next. Resolved, That we cordially invite and urge upon every voter, both white and col? ored in our Township, irrespective of past differences of opinion as to politics, to come up and join us, and let us moke one com? mon cause in the great work of reform, and in restoring our State to good government. Resolved, That we, the Democratic Club at Honea Path, favor the County Conven? tion plan of nominating candidates for all the offices to be filled in our County, from the Legislature down, believing that we can have more unanimity in this plan of select? ing candidates than by primary elections. Resolved, That we favor nominating men for office who the office would seek, rather than men who seek the office, especially for the Legislature, as we believe all good con? servative men would be more likely to join in with us in the great work of reform so much needed, which is acknowledged by all parties, and onr delegation are instructed to not vote for men who seek nominations? only to vote for men who they believe good, faithful and honest men; and respectfully ask that other Democratic Clubs throughout the County consider the plan we have adop? ted of electing men for officers. ! The following gentlemen were elected to attend the Convention at Anderson C. H., on the 15th day of April next: T. A. Hud gens, R. N. Wright, Wm. Lee, James Gam brell and Maj. Rob't. Dugan. Alternates? R. S. Cheshire, M. S. Strickland, Joel Kay, Sr., and Joel B. Cox. The Honea Path Club will meet on the second Saturday in every month. D. S. McC?LLO?GH, Sec. TOWNSHIP MEETING, According to previous notice, tho citizens of Hopewell Township met at Hopewell Church on Saturday, 29th ultimo, for the purpose of arriving at some definite conclu? sions in regard to the distribution of public school funds. Capt. M. B. Williams was called to the chair, and A. M. Guyton re? quested to act as secretary. The chair ex? plained the object of the meeting, and de? clared the meeting ready for business. School Commissioner T. P. Benson was present, and gave us the law in regard to school matters. Mr. J. H. Hamblin offered the following resolutions, which were adop? ted: Resolved, That the Trustees of this Town? ship be required, and are hereby authorized, to distribute the public school fund to the five school* now being taught, according to the number of children in school for the present scholastic year. Resolved, That the Trustees of this Town? ship are requested and required to visit each school once each month, tor the purpose of ascertaining the correctness of Teachers' reports relative to daily attendance, particu? larly to encourage and criticise or disapprove discipline or government generally. Mr. Peter R. Brown offered an amend? ment to last above resolution, to wit: "And that the County School Commis? sioner be requested to visit schools once each quarter. M. B. WILLIAMS, Chm'n. A. M.

Apologizing to a lamp post is prima facia evidence that it is not MERRLLL'S HEPATINE for the Liver, but some worthless trash, called Bitters, that has been taken into the stomach. MER RELL'S HEPATINE acts directly on the Liver, causing it to throw off the bile, and purify the blood. When the Liver has a healthy action the whole system is at once invigorated and strengthened; disease has no hold on the system, and is easily eradicated. MERRELL'S HE?

HARGROVES, Pastor Baptist Church, Elmira, N. Y. March 19, 1874. Good Taste. In nothing do men and women show their possession of this quality, or the want of it, so much as in the appearance of their homes. People of good taste and judgment in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Alabama, patronize Mr. P. P. Toale, of Charleston, S. C, who supplies the best doors, sashes, blinds, newels, cor? nices, <fcc, and the best paint to make them beautiful. Also, plain and ornamental glass of the best French and American manufac? ture._ Remember This. Now is the time of the year for Pnoumo nia, Lung Fever, Coughs, Colds, and fatal results of predisposition to Consumption and other Throat and Lung Disease. Bos chke's German Syeup has been used in this neighborhood for the past two or three years without a single failure to cure. If you have not used this medicine yourself, go to vour Druggist, Wilhite & Williams, and ask him of its wonderful success among his cus? tomers. Two doses will relieve the worst case. If you have no faith in any medicine, just buy a Sample Bottle of Boschee's Ger? man Syrup for 10 cents and try it. Regular size Bottle 75 cents. Don't neglect a cough to save 75 cents. QUERY 1 Messrs. Editors : I have been informed that several persons, sonic of whom have not yet paid up their accounts with our merchants for last year, have been taking their money to a neighboring town to buy goods. Now I want to know if these per? sons have tried Anderson yet as a cash mar? ket, and if not if they had not better do so? Our merchants claim to be an upright set of men, and I am sure if they had a fair trial they would convince any body that we have as good a market, and that our cash prices are as low as any, high freights to the contrary notwithstanding. I want to know if this is exactly RIGHT. HYMENEAL. MARRIED, at the residence of the bride's father, in this County, on Thursday, the 9th instant, by the Rev. J. S. Murray, Mr. L.

No snails, worms or green moss gets about the water. It is free from rust or other impurities, and can be operated by a small child with case, and brings the water fresher than any oth? er Pump. It is of stone, glazed inside and outside, and never will decay. It improves the water beyond a doubt by ventilating the well, and keeping it like a moving stream of water. With a hose attached, it becomes a good fire-engine, ever ready at your door to extinguish the flames in case of fire. It is better and cheaper than insurance. Its work? ing gives complete satisfaction, as those acquainted with it will testify. It is a home enterprise, permanently established, and relies on its own merits, upon which it asks' your patronage.
