THE INETLLIGENCER. LOCAL, MATTERS* FINANCIAL AND COMKXBCIAL. Commodore Vanderbilt's death created quite astir in this community. A number of our friends, under the impression that vre were related to the lamented Commo? dore, and inspired with the belief that his last will and testament mentioned us quite favorably, undertook to collect sundry bills of divers amounts when the announcement of his death was made by the newspapers. But these zealous friends were sadly mis? taken. We are not akin to Vanderbilt or any other millionaire that we know of, and the only possible chance to pay our debts is for the subscribers of the Anderson Iniclii gencer to settle up their arrears to this office. When this is done, we will cheerfully turn over the money to our creditors, or if they prefer' we will turn over the newspaper accounts, which are warranted to be promo tive of health and longevity, from the exer? cise it requires to collect them. DEMOCRATIC C0T7KTT CONVENTION. The Democratic party of Anderson Coun? ty met in Convention pursuant to adjourn? ment at 11 o'clock on last Monday morning. All the clubs in the County were represent? ed, except Brushy Creek and Fork No. 2, by full delegations, which gave the Convention a membership of about ninety-five delegates. The Chairman, Col. Hoy t, after the enroll? ment of delegates, announced the Conven? tion ready for business and called Col. F. E. Harrison to the chair, and offered the ad? dress which appears elsewhere. Senator Cochran asked for the resolutions to be re? read, and the Convention voted to grant the request, after which Mr. E. B. Murray moved that he be allowed to give his views to the Convention upon the address, which was adopted. Senator Cochran then an? nounced' himself as a Republican who favored supporting the Hampton govern? ment, because he did not believe Chamber Iain had been elected. Upon motion of Mr. G. W. McGee, the address and resolutions were unanimously adopted. Mr. G. F. Tolly then presented a resolution endorsing Mr. J. Saylis Lewis for County Auditor, which, upon motion of Col. F. E. Harrison, was tabled. Mr. Tolly then, as chairman of the delegation from Anderson Court House, presented, ander instructions of the town club, a resolution endorsing Capt. John R. Williams for Jury Commissioner, which was also tabled: Mr. E. B. Murray then moved to reconsider the vote tabling the resolution, and stated that Samuel Johnson had been recommended for the position, and that he did not think it a proper nomi? nation. Mr. James L. Orr asked permission to be heard, which, upon motion, was grant? ed. He spoke at length sustaining the re? commendation of Johnson, and stated that the delegation was unanimous in recom? mending him. Capt. R. W. Simpson was, upon motion, also heard in defense of the recommendation. Mr. E. B. Murray re? plied, stating that be did not mean to reflect upon the delegation, and did not construe the resolutions as any reflection. It was simply a difference of opinion. The motion to reconsider was adopted, and, after consul? tation, the resolutions were indefinitely postponed. Mr. Murray then moved that the delegation be requested to withdiaw the recommendation of Johnson, and make a j recommendation to Governor Hampton of some suitable and competent person for the position. After some discussion this motion was adopted by a vote of forty to thirty-nine. R. N. Wright, Esq., moved to reconsider this vote, and Mr. E. B. Murray moved to lay the motion on the table, which was adopted. Col. F. J? Harrison moved to adopt the recommer lation of the State Executive Committee upon the labor question, which would have been to make no distinctions in the employment of bands. Mr. E. B. Mnr ray moved to substitute the following reso? lutions, which were adopted: Rooked, That this Convention adopt the action of the County Executive Committee on the labor question with the addition that Republicans who support the Hampton government, and refuse to pay taxes to the Chamberlain government, and who join the Clubs, be treated as Democrats. Resolved, That the action of the County Executive Committee be printed with the proceedings of this body. The following are the recommendations of the County Executive Committee, as adop? ted in December: 1st. The Executive Committee suggest that every Democrat in the County be ear? nestly requested not to give employment or patronage in any manner to such men as were prominent Republican party or local leaders in the recent election, and that all assistance and encouragement be withheld from them. ? 2nd. That the treatment of the rank and file of the Republican party be left unacted upon by our people for the present, and that after the first day of January next, if Gen. Hampton is inaugurated Governor, our peo? ple should be magnanimous to the rank and file of the Republicans of this County, and that they be employed upon such differences between them and Democrats as may be fixed upon by the different Clubs to secure a just, deservtd and promised advantage to those who voted the Democratic ticket. 3rd. That with a view to carrying out the foregoing recommendations, we suggest that a complete list of all the voters in the late election be published forthwith in pamphlet cr circular form. That the name of every Democrat be printed in one list by precincts, with the letter, (W.) and (C.) to denote white or colored, and that the name of every Republican be printed in another list by precincts, with the letter (W.) or (C.,) to denote white or colored, and that the names of all Republican leaders be distinguished from the rank and file of the party, by hav? ing an asterisk opposite to them, and that each Club designate who are such leaders in Its bounds. 4th. We recommerd that the Clubs of our County proceed, immediately, to enroll the names of colored men who are willing to become members of our organization, and that all who join before the first day of Jan? uary next, be treated' as Democrats in the contracts to be made for the coming year. 5th. That we recommend to our people to fulfill, fully and liberally, our promises to colored men who joined our Clubs before the election, by giving them the best places and the highest wages; especially, the prominent leaders on the Democratic side. The Convention then, upon motion, ad? journed. The Convention was a grand success, and shows that the people of Anderson County are unanimous in their determination to support none other than the Hampton gov? ernment. It is not apprehended that there will be many Republicans, even in this County, who will pay taxes to Chamberlain. Our people have never been more united, and Anderson bids fair long to deserve the well won sobriquet of "The Banner County of South Carolina." GBAZIGE OFFICERS.

Mr. W. 0. Hampton, the young man who was robbed in this County last year, was ac? cidentally killed "in Greenville County on the 2nd inst. He was preparing for a hunt, and after, loading one barrel of H? gun, it is supposed that he dropped, his shot pouch, which struck upon the. hammer of the loaded barrel and knocked it up sufficiently for the fall on the cap to explode it. The shot pouch was found between his feet. The load entered bis temple, killing him instantly. We ask the attention of our readers to the advertisement of the Carolina CollegiatO In? stitute.

A VERT VALUABLE WORK. The Illustrated History of the Centennial Exhi? bition, with a fall description of the Great Build? ings and all the objects of Interest Exhibited in them. By James D. McCabe, author of "The Cen? tennial History of the United State*," etc. Em? bellished with orer Soo fine engraving* of buildings and scenes in the Great Exhibition. There is a universal demand for a work which shall embody a complete and careful? ly written account of the great Centennial Exhibition, sketching its wonderful and varied features, and presenting to the reader not a dry list of the articles exhibited, but a brilliant and graphic description of the oupst magnificent display of the results of human skill and industry ever gathered together.' Such a want the National Publishing Co. of Philadelphia have supplied in this superb volume. It is from the pen of the well- - known author, James D. McCabe. The book is a complete and vivid descrip? tion of the great Exhibition. The antlipr has written from his own personal knowl? edge, having gone through every part of the great World's Fair, note-book in hand, re? cording the vast and varied information contained in this work. He has received the constant and sympathetic assistance of the Centennial authorities, and has enjoyed peculiar advantages in its preparation. The author takes us through the Exhibition grounds, and makes us familiar with every object of interest in them. We are then taken into the Main Building, and are car? ried successively through it, and through every building, large and small, in the grounds. We are told the story of the con? struction and arrangements of each of these edifices, and the rare,' beautiful and wonder? ful collections which they contained are' graphically described. This work is invaluable to all classes of our people. There is not another book in print which gives one-fourth of the infor? mation contained in this work. To tho?e who visited the Exhibition it will be a pleas? ing souvenir of their visit, and will enable them to recall the magnificent scenes they have witnessed. To those who could not make the journey, the book is a necessity, for it will enable them to enjoy the delights of a thorough acquaintance with the great Worlds Fair in the quietude of their own homes. The work is comprised in one large and handsome octavo volume-of 874 pages, and is superbly illustrated. The price is low, and within the reach of all. The book is sold by subscription only, and the publish? ers want agents in every county. Scarcity of Money.

'Cowardly Assaults. 1 When a candidate for l?gh office is so well, liked and so popular with ,the. .masses as to make his defeat difficult in a lair and honor? able fight, mean and cowardly iheh are not wanting who'delight in 'mah?fact?rin^Tie^ and slandering his good name. There'are also those whose selfishness prompt them to. prostitute their honor, pervert truth, and ignore right, for the sake of injuring a com? petitor in business, whose, prosperity they envy, and with whose business sagacity they have not the talent to successfully compete in an honorable way.. These thoughts are suggested by the mean, cowardly -attacks made upon me and my medicines, by those who imagine .their pecuniary prosp^cts-^in-; jjured bv the great popularity which my standard medicines have acquired, and the continued growth of my"'professional prac? tice: Narrow-minded practitioners of nvedi-" cine, and manufacturers of preparations which do not possess .sufficient- merit to-suc cessfully compete for'popular favor, have resorted to, such.cowardly strategy .as to.pub-, lish all sorts oi ridiculous reports.ab.out.the composition Of my medicines." "Almanacs, "Receipt Books;" and' other pamphlets, are issued and scattered broadcast over theiand, wherein these contemptible knaves publish pretended analyses of, my;.medicines,-and receipts for making them. Some, of these, publications are given high-sounding names, pretend to be issued by respectable nien uf education and position, for' the good of the people?the more completely to blind tUe' reader to the real-object in their circulation, which is to injure the sale of my medicines. "The Popular Health Almanac", is the'high sounding name of one of these publications, which contains bogus receipts, without.a grain of truth in thetn. Not less devoid of truth are those which have been published by one Dr. L., of Detroit, in the 'Michigan Farmer, and by other manufacturers of med? icines, in several so-called journals of Phar? macy. They are all prompted by jealousy and utterly fail in accomplishing the object of their authors, for, notwithstanding their free circulation, my medicines continue to ; sell more largely than any others manufac? tured in this country,! ana are constantly in? creasing in sale despite the base lies concoc? ted and circulated by such,' knaves. The people find that these medicines possess genuine merit, accomplish what their man? ufacturer claims for them, and are not the vile, poisonous nostrums which jealous,' narrow-minded physicians and sneaking compounders of competing medicines repre resent them io be. Among the large num? ber of pretended analyses published, it is a significant fact that no two.have. been at all alike?conclusively proving the dishonesty" of their authors. ( It is enougli for the peo-* pie to know that while thousands, yeaj I may truthfully say millions, have takerrmy medicines and have been cured, no.one. has ever received injury from their use. R. V.
