TtiE INETLLIGENCER. fcOCAL. MATTERS. BRIEF MENTION. Another bachelor has forsaken the errors of his. ways. Go and do likewise?if you can! Broadaway Democrating Club is requested to meet at Neal's Creek Church on next Saturday on important business. The side-walks on McDuffie street have received a layer of shavings. Pedestrians in that end of town are thankful. Col. John H. Evins, member of Congress elect from the Fourth Congressional District, arrived in Anderson on Tuesday afternoon. The Carolina Collegiate Institute has opened with seventy-five pupils, which is an encouraging commencement of the new year. Mr. G. W. Garreckt gives notice that he has reduced his prices for work, and will attend promptly to all orders. Read his advertisement. Many of the large tax-payers in town and country came promptly forward with their ten per cent, when the books of the Special Agent were opened. The new firm of McCully & Taylor an? nounce their copartnership this week. Both are energetic and competent business men, and we wish them a successful career. The Anderson Cornet Band favored us with a delightful serenade on last Friday evening. Many thanks to the young gen? tlemen for their compliment. We call attention to the advertisement of R. Y. H. Nance, who has secured experi? enced workmen, and is prepared to execute all orders in his line with dispatch. Ex-Sheriff McGukin retires from the posi? tion . which he has filled with fidelity and courtesy for the past eleven years, and car? ries with him the good wishes of all classes. Mr. J. H. Reed has lately returned from the Lone Star State, after an absence of two years anfong the Texans. We arc glad to welcome him back to Carolina, and trust he will stick this time. Here is a warning to Sam. Tilden, Alex. Stephens and Pink. Reed. A man named Ebenezer Jolleff, living at Branchville, in the State of Connecticut, was recently found frozen to death in bed. He was a bachelor. Messrs. G. W. McGee, James W. Poo re and E. B. Rice, representing a number of the tax-payers of Bel ton and vicinity, have notified the Special Agent that they will visit Anderson to-morrow to make payment of their quota. McGrath <fe Byrum offer inducements to those indebted to them?one cent per pound for cotton above the market price. Their stock of groceries, dry goods, <fec., is full, and they propose to sell very <meapfor cash. See advertisement. B. F. Cray ton, Esq., has gone to Charles? ton this week on private business. The annual races of the South Carolina Jockey Club are advertised for the present week, and we venture the opinion that Anderson will be represented. Coroner Herrick was called upon last Sunday to hold an inquest over the body of a white infant in the neighborhood of Concord Church, but the examining physi? cians were not satisfied that the body under view was human, and the County was saved the costs of an inquest. Mr. E D. Pruiett, of Martin Township, was the first tax-payer in Anderson County to pay the ten per cent, under Gov. Hamp? ton's call. He took the precaution to leave his money with the Special Agent a few days before the books were opened, and thereby secured the first receipt. Governor Hampton has commissioned the newly elected Sheriff of Anderson County, James H. McConnell, Esq., who entered upon the duties of his office on Monday last. Mr. McConnell is familiar with the re? quirements of his position, as he has served for many years as the deputy of 8heriff j McGukin. The usual paragraph is going the rounds of the newspapers, in which every one is urged to give prompt attention to their small bills, as by putting the money in mo? tion it will go from one to another, and assist in paying off many scores. This is sound and sensible advice, and an admira? ble method of putting the advice into prac? tical operation is for every man indebted to the Anderson Inte?igencer to walk up to the captain's office without delay and settle off his indebtedness, which will enable us to make glad the obdurate hearts of importu? nate creditors. GRANGE OFFICERS. The following officers have been elected for the ensuing year by Pomona Grange, Patrons of Husbandry, for Anderson Coun? ty: W. W. Russell, W. M. P. B. Brown, 0. T. B. Lee, L. J. T. Cook, S. A. B. Bowden, A. S. Miss Anna Daricot, L. At 8. W. Harper, C. J. W. Norris, Secretary. K. Breazeale, Treasurer. W. T. McGill, G. K. Mrs. J. W. Norris, C. Mrs. Thomas Burriss, P. Mrs. J. T. Cook, F. Pomona Grange will meet on Tuesday, 6th February next. HO NE A PATH DEMOCRATIC CLUB. At a meeting of Honea Path Democratic Club, held on the 13th January, the follow? ing resolutions were offered by R. N. Wright, Esq., and adopted: 1. Resolved, That the Democratic Club at Honea Path endorse Gov. Hampton as the lawful Governor of South Carolina, and W. D. Simpson as Lieutenant Governor, and pledge ourselves to support Gov. Hampton's administration, and hold ourselves in readi? ness to pay the taxes called for at any time designated, while we utterly refuse "to re? cognize the Chamberlain farce in any re? spect whatever. 2. That we fully endorse the action of our Representatives to the lower branch of the State Legislature, and pledge ourselves to sustain them, believing they have acted no? bly and wisely under surrounding circum? stances. 8. That the preamble and resolutions of? fered by Mr. J. A. Hoyt at the County Con? vention meet with our approbation, and we pledge ourselves to sustain them. 4. That we acquiesce in the resolutions passed by the County Convention in regard to the labor qnestion, as being probttbly the best under existing circumstances. T. A. HUDGENS, President. H. G. Reed, Sec. HUNTER'S SPRING CLUB. The following resolutions on the labor question were adopted by Hunter's Spring Democratic Clnb at its last meeting: Resolved, That we recommend to our peo? ple to fulfill fully and liberally our promises to colored men who joined Democratic Clubs before the election, and those who not hav? ing joined, yet voted with us, by giving them j the best places and the highest wages, espeV1 cially the prominent leaders on the Demo" ?craticside. J 'Resolved, That those Republicans wjo support the Hampton government and e fus?toj?y taxes to the Chamberlain gov? ernment,, and join our clnhs, betreatcfas Democrats. / THOS. B. LErVSecreU**/ / 1 THE COLLECTION 0? TAXES. The books of the Special Agent appointed by Governor Hampton to receive the con? tribution of ten per cent, were opened on last Saturday, without any public notice, and in three days nearly Six Hundred Dol? lars were collected. The regular announce? ment is made in our advertising columns to-day, and tax-payers are invited to show their faith by their works. A prompt re? sponse is expected from Anderson County, which has been foremost in the movement from the beginning to secure the redemption of the State from corrupt rulers, and the opportunity is now given to manifest the earnestness of the professions made during and since the campaign. It is a voluntary contribution, and yet it is true that there is just obligation resting upon every citizen to maintain the lawful government. No one need to expect that the exaction made by Chamberlain and the Mackey House will be enforced. The injunction obtained against the County Auditor has nipped in the bud any expectations of that character, and the illegality of its assessment and collection will be maintained by the Courts. The question only remains for the tax-payers to determine whether or not they will respond to the call made by Gov. Hampton for a contribution of ten per cent, upon the amount of last year's taxes for the support of the legitimate government of the State. It will require an actual demonstration of the fact to make us believe that the tax? payers of Anderson County will refuse their quota. Each man must remember that "taxes are a test of sovereignty, and their payment indicates loyalty," and the small? est amount is equivalent in importance in this view as the largest. Y. M. C. A. The annual meeting of the Young Men's Christian Association was held in the Bap? tist Church on Wednesday evening, 10th inst., in accordance with appointment of the committee of arrangements from that body. Rev. D. E. Frierson delivered the annual address before the Association, and his effort was highly instructive and entertaining. The speaker dwelt upon the importance of the great work, and the zeal aud energy displayed by the young men all over the country in its prosecution and furtherance. His address was very encouraging to the members of Association, and was highly appreciated by them, as well as by the ladies and gentlemen who were present. After the conclusion of Mr. Frierson's ad? dress, a short business meeting was held to hear the report troiu the President and elect officers to serve the ensuing year. The President's report was read before the Asso? ciation, which showed that the several com? mittees had been very active in the prosecu? tion of their respective duties. The follow? ing officers were then elected: President, G. F. Tolly; 1st Vice President, John W. Todd; 2nd Vice President, A. P. Hubbard; Secretary and Treasurer, L. P. Smith. The meeting then adjourned. SHOOTING AFFRAY. Several officials of the revenue service went one night last week to Liberty Station, in Pickens County, for the purpose of cap? turing whiskey wagons, and while there at? tempted to arrest a man named Redmond, who is charged with killing a man in North Carolina. While in pursuit of Redmond through the woods, the United States Mar ! shals after him were fired upon, and two of them were wounded. E. H. Barton was shot in the thigh, but not dangerously, and Hendricks was shot through the chest, per? haps fatally. Gary escaped unhurt, but was left in charge of the whiskey wagons, and subsequently he and another were fired upon and wounded by the whiskey peddlers, who were incensed by the conduct of the officers._ RAILROAD ACCIDENT. An accident occurred to the passenger train on the Anderson Branch last Saturday afternoon at the station near Broadaway trestle. The track gave way suddenly, and three freight cars were thrown off, together with the baggage-car and tender. The en? gine and the passenger cars remained on the track, and no person was injured by the wreck. The rotten condition of the earth produced by the late snows and rains caused the accident beyond a doubt. The train was not restored to the track until Sunday after? noon, when it reached Anderson about dark, bringing the mails due on Saturday. THE COLUMBIA REGISTER. Mr. John C. Squier, the general traveling agent of the Columbia Register, will be in Anderson to-day or to-morrow and will call upon our citizens in the interest of the pa? per which he represents. He is a pleasant gentleman, and desires to secure an in? creased circulation in this community for the largest democratic daily published at the State Capital. The Register is conducted with enterprise and ability by men who are straight-out Democrats. TOWH COUNCIL OF BELTON. At an election held in Belton on the 8th inst., the following officers were chosen to serve the present year: Intendant?G. W. McGee. Wardens?Dr. F. K. Breazeale, J. T. Rice, W. A. Geer and A. P.

Why do people so frequently say to Dr. Pierce, "1 suppose your Golden Medical Dis? covery cures every thing?" Because it has been the practice of knavish charlitans to manufacture worthless nostrums and at? tempt to dupe the ignorant and credulous by recommending them to cure every form of disease. To such an extent has this been practiced that it is no wonder. that many have acquired prejudices against all adver? tised remedies. But Dr. Pierce.does not ad? vertise his standard preparations as "cure alls," does not claim that they will perform miracles, but simply publishes the fact that they have been developed as specifics for | certain forms of disease for which he recom? mends them, after having tested their effi? cacy in many hundred cases with the most gratifying success. It is a fact known to every well-informed physician that many single remedies possess several different properties. Quinine, for instance, has tonic quality, which suggests its use in cases of debility j an anti-periodic, by which it is efficacious in ague; and a febrifuge proper? ty, which renders it efficacious in cases of | fever. The result of its administration will also vary with the quantity given and the circumstances under which it is employed. So, likewise, the Golden Medical Discovery Eossesscs both pectoral and alterative, or lood-cleansing properties of the highest order. By reason of these two prominent properties it cures two classes of disease. Firdt, those of the respiratory organs, as throat, bronchial, and lung affections, chronic coughs and asthma, and second, diseases of the blood and glandular system, in which affections all skillful physicians employ alteratives, as in cases of blotches, eruptions, ulcers, swellings, tumors, ab? scesses, and in torpor of the liver or "bilious? ness." While its "use is, by its combination of properties, suggested in cases of pulmo? nary consumption, yet you need not take it expecting it will cure you if your lungs are half consumed, nor because it is recom? mended as a blood medicine would its pro? prietor advise you to take it expecting it to cure cancer, it will not perform miracles, but it will cure many grave forms of disease. Wonderful Success. It is reported that Boschee's German Syrup has, since its introduction in the United States, reached the immense sale of | 40,000 dozen per year. Over 6,000 Druggists have ordered this medicine direct from the Factory, at Woodbury, N. J., and not one has reported a single failure, but every letter speaks of its astonishing success in curing severe Coughs, Colds settled on the Breast, Consumption, or any d;sease of the Throat and Lungs. We advise any person that has any predisposition to w 2ak Lungs, to go to their Druggists, Wilhite & Williams, and get this Medicine, or inquire about it. Reg? ular size, 75 cents; Sample Bottle, 10 cents. Two doses will relieve any case. Don't | neglect your cough. 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 which will afford that satis? faction experienced by me and mine. It excels everything for coughs, colds and obstinate 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, colds and lung affections should use the Globe Flower Cough Syrup. It will pos? itively cure consumption.
