THE INTELLIGENCER. LOCAL MATTERS. SAD AFFATJt AT LOWNDESViLLE. From a gentleman just returned from Lowndesville, Abbeville County, we learn that on Monday evening last a negro was arrested and put in the guard-house at that place, and about 10 o'clock at night was forcibly released by an armed crowd of about thirty negroes. Soon afterwards, Mr. Clayton Allen and Mr. The. Baker were ?quietly passing the street, when they were fired upon by'said negroes, and Mr. Allen was instantly killed, and Mr. Baker woun? ded. Tbe citizens collected immediately and pursued the negroes who bad fled, and np to 9 o'clock on Wednesday had arrested thirty of the rioters, several of whom made confession to'participation in the shooting. Great excitement prevails in the communi? ty, and it ia with difficulty that the people arc restrained from wreaking vengeance on the mob of negroes. DEATH OF maj. F. C. v. BOBSTEL. It is with sad feelings that we record the death of Maj. Frederick Charles von Borstel, who died at his residence in this town on j Wednesday morning, the 6th instant, after an illness of several weeks. Maj. Borstel was born on the sixth day of February, A. D. 1819, in Pominern, Prussia, in Europe. While quite young, he went to London, where he spent several years. From thence he sailed for New York, and after spending several years there and in New Jersey and Georgia, in the spring of 1848 he came to Anderson and settled per? manently. In 1850 he married Miss Cassan? dra Hewitt, of Charleston, whom he sur? vived only about eight months. Maj. Borstel was an honest, upright and useful citizen, arid possessed in an eminent degree, J the confidence and respect of all who knew him. His character was decided, and in every enterprise upon which he entered, be displayed an energy which is seldom sur? passed. He was a consistent, energetic and working member of the Baptist Church for more than twenty years, and in all the re? lations of life he exemplified the religion of his Saviour. He was for several years the Superintendent of- the Baptist Sabbath School. In this work his whole heart was enlisted, and in it he never tired. As a member and Deacon of the Church, liberal in his contributions, and devoted to its best interest, he set an example worthy of the imitation of all. The Church, the Sabbath School and the community will miss him, and the bereaved ones have the sympathy of the community in their affliction. BEIEF MEFTION. Both Editors of the Intelligences are absent in Columbia. Two droves of Tennessee hogs have been disposed of in Anderson at six and one-half cents gross. Mr. J. A. Daniels calls attention to the fact that he has on hand a fine lot of Jew? elry, suitable for Christmas presents. Give him a trial Many persons in Anderson village and vicinity lost valuable hot-house plants on last Friday night from the biting cold weather, notwithstanding they had been carefully housed. We are requested to remind tbe members of the Young Men's Christian Association that next Tuesday evening is the regular time for holding the monthly business meetings of the Association. A full atten? dance is desired. ? We present our acknowledgments to Mr. and Mrs. 8amnel Crayton for specimens of South Florida fruits, consisting of oranges, lemons and' pink fruit. These specimens are superior to anything cf the kind we have seen from -the West Indies. We ap? preciate such specimens, but more especial? ly the remembrances of such friends. Capt, T. P. Benson took charge of the Waverly House in this place lost week. Kind and obliging in disposition Capt. Ben? son cannot fail to make his house popular with the public. Born and reared in a ho? tel, (the late popular Benson House, under charge of his father,) what he don't know about keeping hotel is not worth finding out. He proposes to keep a first class house in every respect. Through the politeness of Mr. N. A. McCully, assistant Cotton Weigher, we. learn that during the month of November nineteen hundred and sixty-two bales of cotton were shipped from Anderson. Total from September 1 to December 1, five thou? sand bales. Our merchants continue to pay the very highest prices that the Charles? ton and New York markets will allow, and Anderson ranks as one of the best cotton markets in the up-country. General finger's Excuse. Columbia, S. C, Dec. 1.1876. General W. T. Sherman, or the Secreta? ry of War, Wathinyton, D. C.: I have carefully abstained from inter? ference with the organization of the House from the first. On the applica? tion of the Governor, and my own belief for the necessity therefor, for the preser? vation of peace, I placed troops in the State House, but not in the rooms of As? sembly or either of the houses. On the day of the meeting, it came about that, at the time, the soldiers were placed on either side of the door of entrance to the hall of Representatives under tbe follow? ing circumstances: A person at the door of the House, and who claimed authority to examine the certificates of those claiming to be mem? bers prior to their admission to the hall, but who, I think, had no legal authority for so doing, applied to the officer in command of the troops, placed in the corridor for the. preservation of peace, for assistance, on the ground that he was being pressed upon and could not per? form his duty. The soldiers were placed as stated. As soon as I was fully informed of the circumstances, I ordered the soldiers withdrawn, as I had previously informed Governor Chamberlain that I should con? fine my action to the preservation of the peace, and should do uothing with refer? ence to keeping the doors of the rooms of meeting of the houses, or the rooms themselves, unless it became necessary because of a breach of the peace, which the civil officers of tne House should be unable to restore. No act was done by the soldiers ex? cept that of their presence as stated, but whilst they were so present, persons claiming the right of entrance under the certificate of the Clerk of the Supreme Court were refused admission. Thos. H. Rugeb, Commanding Department. Supreme Court.?In the Supreme Court on Monday, the mandamus case against Haync and Mackey to compel them to deliver the returns of the elec? tion for Governor to W. H. Wallace, Speaker of the legal House of Represen? tatives was taken up. Judge Denny appeared for the respondents. The Court proceeded to hear the case on the Suestion as to whether the House presi ed over by W. H. Wallace was a lawful House with a lawful quorum. After the examination of a number of witjnessea on the nart of the relatore, the case was' continued until the fj'?xt flay. Congressional Proceedings. Washington, December 4. The Senate met at noon. Mr. Blaine, of Maine, Messrs. Chaffee and Teller, the Senators from Colorado, and Mr. Price, the new Senator from West Virginia, vice Caperton, deceased, were sworn in. The new Senators from Colorado drew for their respective terras, when Mr. Chaffee secured the lone term, ending March 4, 1879, aud Mr. Teller the short term, eud ing March 4, 1877. Committees were appointed to notify the President and the House of Representatives that the Senate was ready for business, and at 12.20 a recess for three-quarters of an hour was taken. The Republican caucus of the House nominated Garfield fot Speaker. The caucus of the Senate discussed the situation, but deferred action until the electoral votes of South Carolina, Flori? da and Louisana were decided. The House was called to order by Chief Clerk Adams. A motion was made to elect a Speaker. Banks appeal? ed from the decision of the Clerk that the Speaker should be elected before the new members were sworn in. _ In the Senate, after the usual formali? ties, Edmunds offered a resolution, which was laid on the table and ordered printed, setting forth that whereas the constitu? tion provides for the method of electing Eepresentativcs to Congress, and recites who are entitled to vote for such Repre? sentatives; and whereas, it is alleged that in the States of South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana and Mis? sissippi the rights of many such persons were denied and abridged during the late election; therefore, Resolved, That the Committee on Priv? ileges and Electior h be authorized to in? quire whether such rights were denied and abridged, and if so to what extent, and who have been affected by such de? nial and abridgement, and by n-hat au? thority such abridgement has been car? ried on ; also, that said committee inquire into the fact whether any Presidential electors in the late election were disquali? fied, and whether any of them have been interfered with in their rights and quali? fications, and whether there is any con? stitutional remedy therefor; that said committee employ clerks and stenogra? phers, and be empowered to take testi? mony and administer oaths. In the House, 248 members answered to the roll. The election of Speaker pre? ceded all other business. Randall ad? dressed the House thanking the members for the honor conferred and calling at? tention to the fact ;bat he was elected to the .post on aca ant of the death of Speaker Kerr, to Uom he paid a high eulogy for the purity of his public and private life. No one could appreciate more than he (Randall) did tne great honor of being called upon to preside over the deliberations of the representa? tives of the American people, and in the discharge of his duties he should -en? deavor to be absolutely fair and impar? tial, and while upholding all the rules of the House, he should protect each and every member in his individual rights. The House stands pow in the presence of events which in the last degree demand the most careful consideration of every officer of the government, and he ex? pressed the hope that the representatives of the people would act only with a keen sense of right, and so as to carry out the just expectation of the people and to en? force the right. The credentials of C. W. Buttz, from South Carolina, were presented. Mr. Morrison objected. They were laid over. The committees f.o go to South Caro? lina, Florida and Louisiana were ordered ?six to Florida, nine to South Carolina and fifteen to Louisiana. The credentials of Buttz, from South Carolina, were referred to the Committee on Elections, under a protest filed by counsel for contestant. The South Caroliua committee consists of Saylor, of Ohio; Abbott, of Massachu? setts ; Stenger, of Pennsylvania; Eden, of Illinois; Jones, of Kentucky; Phillips, of Missouri; Banks, of Massachusetts; Lawrence, of Ohio; Lapham, of New York. The public sale of what remained of the library of General George Washington took place, Nov. 28th in Philadelphia, at the auction rooms of M. Thomas & Sons. The books sold were about 250 in num? ber, and have been scattered to the winds by c last surviving heir of the Wash? ington family, Mr. Lawrence Washington, a young gentleman lately come into the groperty. He is a great-grandson of eneral Washington's brother and a son of the late John A. Washington. HYMENEAL. MARRIED. August 25, 1876, by J. L. Bryan. Esq., Mr. S. M.

There is no medicine prescribed by physi? cians, or sold by Druggists, that carries such evidence of its success and superior virtue as Boschee's German Syrup for severe Coughs, Colds settled on the Breast. Con? sumption, or any disease of the Throat and Lungs. A proof of that fact is that any per? son afflicted, can get a Sample Bottle for 10 cents and try its superior effect before baying the regular size at 75 cents. It has lately been introduced iii this country from Germany, and its wonderful cures are aston? ishing to even-one that use it. Three doses will relieve any case. Try it. Sold by Wil hite & Williams. ?3?* Simpson & Sadler are giving away a handsome book entitled "Pearls for the people," containing much valua? ble information and many interesting articles. It also contains a history of the discovery of the "Hepatine," for diseases of the liver, dyspepsia, constipation and indigestion, &c, and gives positive assu? rance that when the Hepatine is used it effects a permanent and lasting cure of these diseases, which prevail to such an alarming extent in our country. Take the Hepatine for all diseases of the liver. Advice Gratis. The Hon. Alexander H. Stevens says "The Globe Flower Cough Syrup has proven a most valuable remedy to me." Gov. James M. Smith, of Georgia says: "I shall always use it with perfect confi? dence, and recommend it to the public as a remedy a hieb will afford that satis? faction experienced by me and mine. It excels everything for coughs, colds and ob-tinate lung affections." Ex-Gov. Brown, of Ga.. says:?"He finds the Globe Flower Cough Syrup a most excellent remedy." Such endorsement by our great and good men deserves the attention of the afflicted. Those suffering from cough, cold* and lung affections should use the Globe Flower Cough Syrup. It will pos? itively cure consumption. For sale by Simpson & Sadler. NOTICE TO CREDITORS.
