THE INTELLIGENCER. LOCAL, MATTERS. BRIEF MENTION. The Hopewell Democratic Club meets at Hamlin's school-house on Saturday next at 2 p. ML The Anderson Fire Company will meet Friday afternoon at 6 o'clock. The Presi? dent desires a full attendance. The Savannah Township Democratic Club will meet at Holland's. Store on Saturday next, 10th of June, at 2 p. m. The reports from the wheat crop arc very discouraging from various sections of the County. The heads are not filling and the grains are faulty. Foster Blodgett passed down the railroad on Saturday last returning to his home in Newberry, after experiencing a sensational reception in Georgia. The officers of the Anderson Farmers' and Mechanics' Association will meet on Satur? day next to arrange the premium list for the next County Fair. Have you seen the new Centennial stamped envelopes? They are very pretty and unique, and we trust the P. M. at this place will order a supply. The State Executive Committee of the Democratic party met in Columbia last night Maj. John B. Moore went down yes? terday morning to attend the meeting. Rev. E. R. Carswell will deliver a Temper? ance Lecture before Hopewell Division on Saturday, 24th inst., at 4 o'clock p. m. The public are respectfully invited to attend. The candidates are beginning to take a wonderful interest in even,- assemblage of the dear people, and on saleday they were abundant as a full crop of blackberries. The Greenville and Columbia Railroad Company are issuing Centennial tickets to Philadelphia and return for $36. These tickets are on sale at the Anderson depot. , The Pomona Grange held a lengthy ses? sion on last Monday, discussing matters pertaining to business of the order. The meeting was largely attended, and was in session four or five hours. Capt W. S. Sharpe has some of the tallest orchard grass growing upon his lots we have ever seen. He is giving much attention to the grasses, and is devoting considerable time to farming these days. There were not many persons from the country on last Monday, and altogether it was a dull saleday. The sale of delinquent lands occupied only a short time, most of the tracts advertised being postponed to future days. Sev. A. W. Lamar will re-enter upon his appointments in the Saluda Baptist Asso? ciation on next Sabbath, beginning at Turkey Creek Church in Abbeville County. The change is made from Walnut Grove at the instance of members in that vicinity. Centennial tickets to Philadelphia and return are on sale at Seneca City and Green? ville, via Lynchburg or Richmond. The trains oh the Air Line Railroad now run through to Richmond, which will prevent change of cars at Charlotte, as heretofore. Messrs. J. L. Font and Newton Scott an? nounce to their friends and the public that they have resumed business, and are now prepared to meet the wants of their cus? tomers. They are industrious and deserv? ing citizens, and merit a liberal share of pat? ronage. One of Tozer's engines attracted much at? tention on last Monday, and kept the crowd together for some time. It was put under a full head of steam, and Mr. Tozer was pres? ent to explain its good qualities to the ad? miring spectators. We learn this engine has been purchased by Mr. S. C. Humphreys. The colored people had a Sunday School celebration on Saturday last, in the suburbs of town. The Baptist and Methodist con? gregations united in the celebration, and the day was spent in appropriate exercises. Messrs. G. F. Tolly, L. P. Smith and A. P. Hubbard accepted invitations and addressed the Sunday Schools. The following citizens of Anderson Coun? ty have been drawn to serve as grand and petit jurors for the August term of the Uni? ted States District Court at Greenville: Messrs. J. Reese Faut, Thomas Cry in es and William McFall as grand jurors; Messrs. B. F. Crayton, Ira C. Williams and N. K. Sullivan as petit jurors. We would suggest to some active and en? terprising young man that money might be made by getting up an excursion train to Charleston, on the occasion of the Fort Moul trie Centennial on the 28th inst Many of onr citizens would like to visit Charles? ton at that time, provided excursion tickets were offered at a reduced rate. The heaviest rain of the season occurred in the Fork country on last Saturday, and we regret to learn that much damage wus inflicted upon the growing crops. The lands were badly washed, fencing carried away, and the small grain crop considerably in? jured. Unusually hard rains visited that section on Thursday, Friday and Saturdoy. Mr. J. Bay Iis Lewis has been appointed local agent for the sale of Centennial tickets by the Atlantic Coast Line, and can give choice of thirteen different routes to and from Philadelphia. If you are going to the Centennial this time, consult Mr. Lewis before deciding upon the route. He has extra inducements to offer clubs often or more persons. Everything now-a-days partakes of the Centennial, but some of our subscribers may be properly termed bi-Centennialists, as we don't believe they will display their patriotism and generosity towards us within the next two hundred years! From present appearances, they are willing for us to suffer the pangs of a depleted pocket-book the balance of this century, at least. Ed. Sloan received a novel consignment the other day in the shape of a live rattle? snake, which was kindly donated to him by a young friend. Eddie is not certain wheth? er the present will prove valuable as a means of recreation during a dull summer, but he has the snake on exhibition at Simpson <fc Sadler's, and many persons are visiting the establishment to get a look at the monster. The Atlanta and Richmond Air Line Rail? road changed its schedule on Sunday last, and the time is shortened several honrs between Atlanta and Richmond. Persons from this section make close connection at Seneca City going East, but tbe schedule does not-make connection with the Blue Ridge Railroad in the morning, by which we arc deprived of the mail facilities hereto? fore enjoyed. It will be remembered that Hon. A. B. Smedley, Lecturer of the National Orange, will address the public at Anderson on Tuesday. 20th inst. We understand that Mr. Smedley has consented to speak at Sandy Springs on Monday night, 19th inst, and he goes from this place to Seneca City, where he will speak on the evening of tbe 20th. Further announcement as to bis? ad? dress at Anderson will be made next week. Cotton-squares are coming to the front with amazing rapidity. On Monday after? noon, Mr. James R. Moorhcad brought us a line specimen of the cotton plant, mcasur ing over twelve inches long, and each plant containing several squares or forms. On Tuesday morning, Mr. B. F. Crayton sent us a stalk of cotton, upon which there were well-defined squares, but our young friend from the Concord section bears off the palm. Both specimens are from the Cheatham seed. Speaking of cotton,'the senior editor of the Inielligrnccr has a fine cotton patch this year, among other valuable possessions, and he is preparing to meet hungry creditors next fall with the stereotyped reply, "Wait until I sell my cotton 1" He has heard this answer so often during the last ten years that it has occurred to him as ridiculous not to be in the fashion. Hence, the cotton patch near his residence, in which so many are taking a friendly interest. A circular from Col. Thomas Dodamead, Superintendent of the Greenville and Co? lumbia Railroad, informs us that the accom? modation traiu between Belton and Ander? son on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays will be discontinued on and after to-day until further notice. It has been a great convenience to the public for a long time, but the necessity for a retrenchment of ex? penditures compels an abandonment for the present of this convenience. We regret to learn of the sudden death of Mr. John R. Moseley, of Lowndcsville, which occurred on the 5th inst., from an over-dose of morphine. He was about thirty years of age, and was well known in our community as an energetic and correct business man. He has been in the employ of different firms in Anderson for several years, and all of his acquaintances will re? ceive with sadness the news of his untimely death. The colored people met in their Baptist Church on Tuesday night fpr the purpose of forming a Temperance Society. Rev. James A. Brown was called to the chair and J. W. Todd requested to act as Secretary. Rev. D. E. Frieison and Messrs. G. F. Tolly and J. W. Todd were present by invitation, and made short addresses. Good, sensible, short speeches were made by several colored men present, also. Upon a call for signatures, forty-three persons came forward and signed their names. The Society meets next Tues? day night in the Methodist Church. FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION. The Anderson Democratic Club, as will be seen by the reported proceedings, has de? termined to observe the approaching anni -versary of American In dependence in appro? priate style, and we learn that the Executive Committee has gone to work with com? mendable zeal to perfect the arrangements for a successful observance of the day. In? vitations have been extended to Gen. J. B. Kershaw, Gen. Samuel McGowan and Hon. W. D. Simpson to deliver addresses upon the occasion, and it is hoped that all of these gentlemen will accept, in which event they may feel assured that the Democracy of Anderson County will give them a cordial and enthusiastic greeting. It has been many years since the descendants of the heroes of the American Revolution in our midst "?tempted to honor the natal day of Independence, and we think it is a happy augury of the future that the Fourth of July is to be re-established in this Centennial year as a day of rejoicing and thanksgiving among our people. We trust that every one will lend cheerful assistance to whatever measures may be inaugurated for the proper observance of the occasion, and that our friends from the country will unite with the Anderson Club in large numbers on that day. The Executive Committee has decided upon a basket dinner, and the ladies are earnestly solicited to co-operate in making this feature a success. The programme of the day will be announced in due time. MURDER WILL OUT. A negro calling himself Henry Loftis was arrested some two months ago upon a charge of assault and battery with attempt to kill, and in default of bail was committed to the jail to await his trial in the Court of Ses? sions. He was not known in this commu? nity, and suspicion rested upon him as a refugee from justice. This suspicion led to inquiries as to his former life, and on Tues? day last the developments pointed clearly to his connection with a murder in Gainesville, Ga., some time last year. He has been iden? tified by Mr. W. S. Cox, formerly a citizen of Anderson County, who now resides in Gainesville, as a negro known in that place as Henry Winters, who killed another negro and fled from justice. Mr. Cox is positive in regard to the matter, we understand, and was able to identify the man as Henry Win i ters out of nine prisoners shown him at the same time. The matter will be investigated, and the'authorities in Georgia will doubtless take the proper steps to secure his transfer to their jurisdiction at an early day. The facts in this case prove that "murder will out," for there was a very slight intimation as to his true character when he stood a pre? liminary examination for assault and bat? tery two months ago, and the developments since that time were purely circumstantial, until Mr. Cox came here upon private busi? ness, when he was requested to Yisit the jail, with the result already stated. GRAND PIC NIC CELEBRATION. ' We understand that the Harper Grange, Patrons of Husbandry, and Lebanon Divis i ion, Sons of Temperance, propose to com? bine together in giving a grand pic nie cele? bration on Thursday, 13th of July next. j The following Granges and Temperance So? cieties are earnestly and respectfully invited, viz: Anderson, Town Creek, Deep Creek, Hunter's Spring and Bishop's Branch Granges; Anderson, New Prospect, Salem and Hopewell Divisions. The Masters of Granges and Worthy Patriarchs of Divisions are requested to encourage a general attend? ance of their members in full regulia. Grange procession will be formed at 10 o'clock and march to the stand, when a speech will be delivered to the Patrons of Husbandry, after which a short recess will be taken. Temperance procession will then follow, and a Temperance address. Grand procession of both orders will then march to the dinner table. Prominent speakers will be procured for the occasion, and the public generally are invited to participate in the day's festivities.' MURDER AT PENDLETON. A murder was committed in Pendleton on Tuesday evening, 30th of May. In an alter? cation which occurred between Jordan Evitt and Sam Williams, both colored, the latter was stabbed and died in a few minutes. It [ seems that these parties had a difficulty several days previous, and meeting in a store on Tuesday the trouble was renewed between them, a fight ensued, and the result was the death of Williams. Both parties were mere boys, not more than fifteen years of age. Trial Justice W. H. D. Gaillard held an inquest over the body of the deceased, and the jury rendered a verdict of "willful murder." Evitt was arrested promptly, and lodged in jail at this place on Thursday morning, to await his trial at the next term of Court. The Greenville Daily News is publishing extracts from the celebrated speech of Hon. D, T. Corbin on the causes of the State bank? ruptcy, which was delivered in Greenville on the 4th of July, 1872, pending the Moscs Toinlinson campaign. It is a full exposure of tbe misdeeds of the Scott administration, und seriously implicates some of the latter day reformers. REPLIES TO "A DEMOCRAT." Pendleton, May 29,1876. Messrs. Editors : Will you permit me to answer, on my part, an inquiry addressed in your last issue to Messrs. VandiveTi Ort and Simpson, requesting ub to say whether, if nominated by the Democrats of Anderson County, we would consent to serve another term in the Legislature. I do not desire to serve another term in the Legislature, my political ambition, if I ever had any, having been satisfied to the fullest extent; but, still, I do not desire to shirk any of the responsibilities, labors or sacrifices incident to oitr present position and to the canvass Just before us. Every ra.'.n must do his duty if we expect to re? store our State to her former prestige. Should, therefore, the Democrats of Ander? son County see proper to nominate and elect me I will not refuse to serve them. R. W. SIMPSON. Anderson, S. C, June 5,1876. Messrs. Editors: In your issue of the 24th ult. I see a card signed "A Democrat," asking Messrs. Vandiver, Simpson and my? self if we will run again if nominated. If I thought that I could be of service to the County and State by returning to the Legis? lature another term, I would feel that it was my duty to do so, no matter what the per? sonal sacrifice might be. But I am con? vinced that an abler and more useful repre? sentative can be selected, and one who will not find the position so utterly distasteful. For these reasons, I have announced myself as a candidate for Solicitor of this Circuit, which position would give me an opportu? nity of attending closely to my profession, and prove more pleasant and profitable. If, however, the Democrats of this County think that I am better suited than others for the Legislature, I shall not endanger their success in this County by refusing to accept the position if elected, for I consider a Dem? ocratic victory in this campaign our only salvation from total ruin and absolute deg? radation. Respectfully your obedient servant, JAS. L. ORR. ANDERSON DEMOCRATIC CLUB. Masonic Hall, June 2nd, 1876. The regular meeting of the Club was held to-night. President A. J. Watt presiding. Minutes of special meeting were read and adopted. In accordance with a resolution of last regular meeting, the Executive Committee presented an order of business for the Club, which was adopted: 1. After the Club is opened reading of the minutes. 2. Unfinished business. 3. Report of committees. 4. Regular business. 5. Any other business properly brought before the Club, and speeches. Maj. Moore offered the following pream? ble and resolutions, which were adopted: Whereas, our brethren of the Brushy Creek Club have differed with the action of the Executive Committee as to the time of primary elections; and, whereas, they ask the clubs to over-rule the action of the com? mittee in this particular, so as to bring on the primary election at a much earlier day, say the middle of August next." Therefore be it Resolved, That we approve of the action of the Executive Committee as wise and pru? dential, and to the best interests of the Dem? ocratic party. Resolved, That the Corresponding Secre? tary send to the County Chairman of the Executive Committee and to the Brushy Creek Democratic Club a copy of these reso? lutions. Maj. Moore also introduced the following preamble and resolutions, which"\were adopted: \ Whereas, the Executive Committee has deemed it inexpedient to carry out the in? structions of the County Convention for a barbecue and celebration on the 4th of July at this place, &c.; and, whereas, this day has at all times been observed and celebrated as the Nation's Birthday of American Inde? pendence ; and, whereas, we regard it a duty as well as a pleasure to celebrate this the one hundredth anniversary of American In? dependence. Therefore bo it Resolved, That the Executive Committee of this Club be instructed to take immediate steps for a celebration of the 4th of July at or near this place, and that they procure suitable speeches for the occasion. Resolved, That we extend a cordial invita? tion to all the Democratic Clubs in the County to join with us on that day, and that the public generally, and the ladies especial? ly, are invited to join us. Resolved, That the refreshments of this day be by a pic nie or basket dinner, as the Executive Committee may decide. Resolved, That the Corresponding Secre? tary make known these resolutions to the County clubs as soon as possible. Col. R. S. Hill moved to amend Article 4th of the Constitution, so as to make twen? ty members a quorum for the transaction of business. Capt. J. A. Hoyt offered an amendment, making the quorum for the transaction of business one-fourth of the whole Club at any and all meetings of the Club, which was adopted. Dr. James T. McFall moved that the Club transact its business with closed doors, but after some discussion the motion was with? drawn. Capt. W. D. Evins, the speaker for the night, was then introduced, and made an able and interesting speech. There being no further business the meet? ing adjourned. A. J. WATT, President. John L. Williams, Secretary. For tlie Anderson Intelligencer. Martin Township Democratic Club met on Saturday, May 27th, 1876, Robert Parker presiding. The Club adopted the following resolutions unanimously : Resolved, That we request the Editors of the Intelligencer and Journal at Anderson to devote a column weekly to setting forth in simple language the many reasons why the colored people in the County should unite with the white people in electing good hon? est men at the next election: and that the patrons of these papers read or cause to be read the same to the frcedmen in their em? ploy. Whereas, wc believe that many good people in the County were deceived in vot? ing for J. R. Cochran for Senator and have regretted their action since; and, whereas, we do not believe that he has ever, or does now, represent the true sentiment of a large .majority of the people of Anderson County; and, whereas, we fail to sec how and when he has acted for the good of his constituents; and, whereas, also we believe the constitu? ents of any officer have a right to ask his resignation whenever he fails to truly repre? sent them. Therefore be it Resolved, That we join with the other Clubs in the County in requesting him to resign his otrice as Senator, and give a chance for the election of a man who will more truly represent the people in that high 1 and responsible position. ROBERT PARKER, Chairman. G. W. McDavid, Secretary. For the Anderson Intelligencer. Messrs. Editors : As Mr. John R. Coch? ran appeared in your issue of 25th May proposing a reference to a select committee of three men of his many acts and efforts in the Legislature to secure reform, and have reliable, honest and competent men put in office, he is respectfully referred to the appointment of Sam Johnson to the office of Jury Commissioner and his voting for W. J. Whippcr for theJudgeship in the Charles? ton Circuit as specimens of his boasted acts and wonderful deeds. Until he can give a rational and an intelligent idea of a white blackbird, wc are disposed to think that bhds of ? feather may flock together, Which is the last and only notice that will betaken of 1dm by the Democracy of Anderson County.

A Flower that Changes its Color. Botany is a division of natural science which treats of plants, and a study of Vegetable Phisiology must be the foun? dation of botanical knowledge?a study only possible by the improvements in the microscope and in organic chemistry. As plants are not scattered haphazard over the earth, botanical geography must be studied, and, with this, puant-history. Botany will be applied to the wants of every-day life, as in Agriculture, Horti? culture, or Medical Botany. Animals often exhibit a marvelous instinct in se? lecting medicinal herbs, and an observa? tion of their habits has often, even in the present time, led to most valuable discov? eries. And should man, with his knowl? edge and appliances, fail to discover less than the brute ? It Is of Medical botany we would speak, or of the HEPATINE PLANT, discovered in Southern Nubia, the Flower of which changes its color with every change of the atmosphere. The remarkable changes and variations of this Plant and Flower have been for years onr special study, resulting in the discovery of its possession of wonderful medical properties, the existence and value of which have heretofore been en? tirely unknown to medical science. Af I ter much labor and scientific investiga? tion, we have succeeded in extracting its peculiar medicinal principles, which is a specific and cure for all diseases of the Liver, Stomach and Bowels; a perma? nent cure for Dyspepsia, Indigestion. Spleen, Constipation, Jaundice, and all Billions Complaints. Of course we can? not send a living Flower of this Plant to all who read of Hepatine; but to all who will send their address to Merrell & Couden, Philadelphia, Pa? with a three cent stamp for return postage, we will send Free a fac-simile of the Flower, that will change its color just the same as the real Hepatine Flower. The Medicine, MERRELL'S HEPA? TINE, for sale by Simpson & Sadler, Anderson, S. C, and will cure all diseases of the Liver. _ Is Your Life Worth 10 Cents? Sickness prevails, everywhere, and every? body complains of some disease during their life. When sick, the object is to get well: now to say plainly that no person in this world that is suffering with Dyspepsia, Liver Cemploint and its effects, such as Indiges? tion, Costiveness, Sick Headache, Sour Stomash, Heart Burn, palpitation of the Heart, Depressed Spirits, Biliousness, &c., can take Green's August Flower without getting relief and cure. If you doubt this, go to your Druggists, Wilhitc & Williams, and get a Sample Bottle for 10 cents and try it. Regular size 75 cents. Two doses will relieve you._ Popularity. ( It is a self-evident fact that unless a per? son possesses sterling worth he will not have the esteem of his fellow-men. It is true, that for a time he may deceive, but eventu? ally his faults will be exposed. This is applicable also to articles recom? mended to the confidence of purchasers. For a brief period by false commendations and glittering exterior, they impose on the people, but as soon as tested they are cast aside. The test of ten years has proven the intrinsic worth of Dr. Tott'b Hair Dye, and to-day no preparation enjoys greater popularity. From year to year the demand for it has increased, and now it is in general use both in this and foreign countries. No stronger proof of its value could be given. 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 'n North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Alabuma, patronize Mr. P. P. Toale, of Charleston, S. C, who supplies the best doors, sashes, blinds, newels, cor? nices, &c, and the best paint to make them beautiful. Also, plain and ornamental glass of the best French and American manufac? ture.
