^ LOCAL MATTERS.
TEE jtMSCfXION IN AHLBB80N COUNTY.
The election; in thisiCounty on last Tues?
days pasagd.' .?fffDOj ?mry ouietbr^uiowith
good feelings. There were;, at the Court
House from 1.600 to 2,000 persons, and we
never saw a more .quiet and peaceable as?
sembly. A large number of the colored
people-vcted for Hampton and reform, and
tfeefift^wU 'be. especially ..'temjembered by
iifcry Democrat in. the County: No dis
turbance occurred at any one of the twenty
two precineta/?tid ;tht* large Democratic ma?
jority'is an expression oh the part of the
p^eb^e _of ^AirfeTsqn,^ white and colored, of
their condemnation of *he official dishonesty
of the Federal>nd State officers. They did
not vote against: Hayes as a man, but
against him as the representative' of Grant
ism and the venality of official corruption,
nor against Chamberlain as a reformer, but
as^the leo.der?of the worst set of political
Tnrnpires 'that exer cursed any country.
The election is over, and the thieves who
have robbed the State for so many years
knovr foil well that every honest man in the
State, has peaceably |yet firmly condemned
them at the polls, and let them" not suppose
that'because the excitement of the election
ik- over their; troubles are over for the next'
. two years, for the Democratic party will
continue its organization, and justice will
uot. be' satisfied until they are confined in
the penitentiary: where -they can steal no
more, criiiey elude- justice'try leaving the
State they have plundered and ruined.

. When the dispatches began coming in on
Wednesday, the Town of Anderson became
wild over the announcement of the election
Of Tilden and Hendricks, and the proba?
bility., of Gen. Hampton's success in. this
State. As sopn asjhp news spread theiner^
chants of theJTown closed their stores, and
every one Joined, in the loudest shouts of
victory and rejoicing. Men' were packed up
and carried' np'on the^hphlderSr6f others
across the square, amidst the most unbound?
ed enthusiasm. The entrance to the Intelli?
gencer office was the grand rallying centre
for the crowd, and the most unbounded ex?
citement held sway. Speeches were called
for and made by Messrs. E. M. Bucker, J. S.
Murray, J. A. Hoyt, Sam'l. Browne, E. B.
Murray and John B. Moore. Mr. Cochran
was also called on, and made a speech to the
meeting, with several "ifs" in the thread of
his remarks, which were considerably in the
nature of a personal plea. The speeches
were loudly applauded, but the reading of
the dispatches containing the favorable news
evidently afforded the greatest satisfaction
to the audience. The Anderson Cornet
Band appeared Upon the piazza of Dr. W.
&. Srownc'3 office, andgave the town a fine
serenade, which was much enjoyed. The
Anderson ''Reformer" was brought out and
thundered forth repeatedly to proclaim the
glorious tidings of Tilden's triumph.
Latein the afternoon the public square
reverberated with the crack and echo of
quantities of fii^crackers, and after night
set in there was a grand display of fire-works
in the form of sky rockets and roman can?
dles. At night there was still a large num?
ber of persons on the square, and Messrs. J.
S. Murray, L. E. Campbell, John S. Smith
and others made speeches in response to the
call of a number of persons who were as?
sembled in front of the Intelligence rooms.
During the night the uttermost interest was
manifested in the returns as they came in,
and many persons remained to a late hour
fn fhe night to receive the news as soon as it
anived. During the entire evening there
was no instance of ill-feeling, and no ex?
cesses were committed against any person.
The merriment, excitement and enthusiasm
exceeded anything that has ever occurred in
Anderson, and will be remembered for many
days-to come.

Three colored men owned that they were
afraid to vote the Democratic ticket because
their wiveo would leave them. This sort of
intimidation has been practiced all over the
State.
Colonel Aiken is indebted to Mr. 6. F.
Kirkland, who was sent here by Carpenter
to work up the colored vote, for a number
of votes. Hin influence was used for Car?
penter, but the votes were cast for Aiken.
Carry the news to Carpenter.
The residence of Dr. T. J. McFall, situated
in the eastern portion of town, is undergo?
ing thorough repairs, and when completed
will vie with any in that vicinity for neat?
ness in appearance and convenience of con?
struction.
At Belton a colored man voted the Demo?
cratic ticket, and as soon as he returned
home his wife attacked him and attempted
to give him a severe beating. The Demo?
crats had to come to his rescue. This was a
clear-case pf intimidation (?) Carry the newt
to Carpenter.
. At Anderson a colored man voted the
Democratic ticket, and when he went home
his wife refujcd to give him any supper. A
democrat, however,, furnished him with a
good square meal. This was intimidation (?).
?Carry the newt to Carpenter.
Anderson County has come up nobly in
the movement for South Carolina's redemp?
tion. The vote on last Tuesday places her
in the van of the Democracy of South Car?
olina. The majority is beyond the expecta?
tion-of the most sanguine, and shows the
result of the thorough canvass which has
been made.
Messrs. Editors : How popular is the
opinion among Southern people that an
article cannot be of very much value if not
brought from a distance, and particularly is
this so with the farmers: We talk very loud
about thoroughbred horses and cattle, and
dwell considerably on the "point", where
they are imported from, &c.,- and hence
'.many young, farmers are led to purchase
t?ck at fancy prices"when equally as good
.in-article could have been brought at home
for less money. What I want to say is this:
[?$ iormcr wishes to invest in both fine and
jood" stock he must certainly be a judge of
uich . stock, and: not buy for instance a
horbnghbred cow of any breed, unless he
' mows that she does possess two qualities,
'iz?quantity of milk and quality. I see
. rom the Rural Carolinian (November num
\.<et) that on the celebrated farm of Mr.
roucg, of Bennsylvania, that in a herd of
wventy Jersey cows hia pet cow, (imported
direct from the Jersey isles) at a cost of five
mn dred in gold, gives him thirty-two quarts
.'afly, and the best record in the United
States of yield of butter for one week from
one cow'is seventeen pounds. These are
fine results, and we think such cannot be
accomplished in South Carolina or even ap?
proximated ; but on the 27th October, at our
County Fair, one of my cows gave me over
thirteen quarts of dry milk at one milking,
and in less than one hour from the time it
was drawn from the cow I had manufac?
tured two and a half or two and three quar?
ter pounds of butter, (the same was placed
on exhibition.) The milk was then turned
over to Mrs. N. A. McCully with a request
to re-churn on the morning of the 28th,
which she did, and from the same milk
there was taken one and a half pounds more
of good butter accurately weighed. Thus
you see that the capacity of this cow per
day is at least two and seven-eight" pounds.
This butter I sell, all I can make, at forty
cents per pound, and at these figures she
would give me daily (if fed all she could
eat) two and seven-eights pounds of butter
?$1.15; five gallons butter milk at ten cents
per gallon?50 cents; or $1.65 per day.
This I claim to be a record which will
compare favorably with almost any cow in
New York, and I have only published this
that my fellow farmers may know that these
results is in reach of every man, and the
sooner the brag patch of cotton is laid aside
and one good cow taken up, housed and
fed, the sooner will we, as a people, be free
from debt. By this method I have succeed?
ed for eight years in succession ofsupplying
my family, from two cows, and atln? tame
but what! have a surplus of butter to sell.
I have made this two long already, but my
desire is so great to see the farmers of our
country farm on a different plan, that is
make one cow equal to three or more, one
hog equal to two of to-day, one acre double
its yield, labor-saving implements of all de?
scription and variety supplant the muscle
of the arm, and our brains educated, that I
cannot stop short of this.

Riotous Republicans at Rock Hill.
By advertisement and handbills, freely
circulated, the Republicans of York were
notified that a meeting would be held at
Rock Hill on Friday last, in the interest
of the Republican Presidential electors
and the candidate for Congress; the pre
tended character of the meeting being
for the purpose Of securing the presence
of a United States Marshal. A. S. Wal?
lace and the county nominees of York
were present. The Democrats asked a
division of time, which was granted.?
Though not entirely satisfactory to all
the Democrats, t he-jpi nt ^discussion was
entered into;i The ^meeting- ^wits-l held
about half a mile from town, and Hon. I.
D. Witherspoon, candidate for the
Senate, with eight other Democrats, at?
tended. About 500 colored men were
present. Nelson Davis, colored, candi?
date for the Legislature, spoke first, fol?
io wed by A. S* Wallace; both being bit-,
ter. '"Hon. I. D. Witherspoon came third.
As soon as he began to speak, the negroes
on the outskirts of the crowd became
turbulent, and directly a young white:
man and a colored man became involved
in a difficulty?the result of the free use
of liquor. The negroes massed so deep
around the combatants that the whites
present could not prevent the fight. Af?
ter clubbing and kicking the white man,
one negro snot him in the thigh. The shot
alarmed many of the negroes, who then
scattered. This gave Mr. F. Barber an op?
portunity to rescue the white man from
his assailants, and thus, in all probabili?
ty, saved his life. Mr. Barber and
friends were followed by a large part of
the howling mob, and it was with much
difficulty that a renewal of the attack
was prevented. The young man, how?
ever, was safely escorted to Rock Hill.
Subsequently the negroes became de?
mons, rushed to the fence, made clubs of
the rails, warned their women and chil?
dren to leave, and declared that now was
the time to clean out the white people.
The Democrats present were calm and
forbearing, exhibiting no symptom of
alarm, while Wallace became very un?
easy. The Democrats endeavored to
quiet the mob, but without avail. In the
meantime, accounts of the. riotous pro?
ceedings and incendiary threats had
reached the village, which created the
impression that a riot would soon be in
progress. Some fifteen or twenty citi
2eus, armed with pistols and guns,
marched toward the scene. Being seen
coming, a messenger was despatched, ad?
vising them to remain away or return to
Rock Hill; but seeing the surging mob
in such terrible excitement, and expect?
ing the fiends to break all restraint, these
men rested at about 250 yards from the
meeting. Shortly after Wallace and oth?
er Republican speakers slipped away by
?back road and went to the village. The
meeting then dispersed, after an hour's
terrible excitement. Hannibal White,
colored candidate for the Senate, if he
did not encourage the riot, did nothing
to quell it; while Colonel Witherspoon,
on the contrary, used all his power to
preserve the peace. The calmness and
forbearance of the whites alone pre?
vented a bloody riot during the exciting
hour. No politics were in the affair in
its origin. The Intendant of Rock Hill
persuaded many white men from going
to "the scene of the excitement.?Register.

ACTIONS,
PEAK LOUDEST.
DURING THE PAST, you can not have failed to notice the determination, on our part, to make OUR HOWSE
lEELJ^J^k=JL~) Cq^^Tj$^JE^/J_1ZELiJr'C!EB>
Of the Trading Public. With this object in view, we have ever exerted ourselves to the utmost to leave nothing undone
which miglit, in any possible way, conduce to the benefit of the Public, or an increase of our Business. We not advertise
for the sake of seeing our names in print, nor do we do so in order to puff and blow, but simply to direct your attention to
our.. St?re, and our model of doing business. Adhering strictly to the
LOWEST PRICE PLAN,
It must be to everybody's interest to trade with us! '
POLITE AND ATTENTIVE CLERKS
Being one great secret of success in business, we have endeavored, to the very best of our ability, to procure none but
such gentlemen, too well known to necessitate our assuring those who favor us with their patronage, that they will re?
ceive only such treatment in our Store as they have a right to expect. The fact that we are
"LIE^IDE^S QF LOW PRICES^'
Is too well established to require any reiteration from us, and we would assure our friends and the public generally, that
we are not only bound to maintain that position, but shall always do our very best to deserve that appellation as justly in
in the future as in the past.
We intended to punish-herewith a new "Price List,', (lower prices than ever before,) but we can hardly do so, in
view of the now ever fluctuating market, (caused by the low price of COTTON, and Hard Times generally,) WITH WHICH
WE ARE DETERMINED TO KEEP UP.
All we can say to you is this : Examine the Stocks and Prices of all our competitors, then come to us, and we will do better by you
in every particular. You will always find that
OUR ASSORTMENT IS THE MOST COMPLETE,
OUR STOCK IS THE LARGEST,
OUR STYLES ARE THE MOST FASHIONABLE,
OUR PRICES ARE THE LOWEST.
