FATAL ACCIDENT. ?)n Friday - afternpon, during the severe gale whichf pr^wailed for severaLhours, a frightful accident occurred upon the planta? tion of Mrs. D. M. Watson, resulting in the sudden death of Mr. Thomas Stocks, who was crushed beneath a falling tree in the open field. It appears that Mr. Stacks was engaged in cutting briars along a ditch, and had relumed to his work in the afternoon, where it was evident that he had been dili? gently engaged, and the amount of work done by him produces the impression that he was killed towards night. Not coming home at the usual hour, it was supposed that he had gone to a neighbor's to get med icin' for one of the children, and it was late in the night before the family were alarmed at his protracted absence, when a search was instituted, which resulted in finding the body, at the place designated, about three o'clock on Saturday morning. He was found in such a position as to make it plain that the tree struck him on the head and right shoulder, and then upon his left knee, which was dislocated. The tree was limb? less and decayed, and the only one in a large field. Coroner Herrick held an in? quest over the body on Saturday morning, when the jury rendered a verdict "that the deceased came to bis death by a blow from a falling tree." Mr. Stacks was an industri? ous] hard-working man, with a large family of small children dependent upon!his labor for. a support.. This sad affliction leaves them destitute, indeed. DEATH OF HAJ. GEO. SSAB0B5. The death of this estimable gentleman occurred at his residence near Pendleton on Tuesday last, in. the 81st year of his age. Maj. Seaborn was widely known as a public spirited citizen, and was always foremost in the advocacy of whatever tended to the ad? vancement and improvement of this section.' He was for many years the editor and pro? prietor ? of the Farmer, and Planter, which was published at Pendleton until 1859, and through its pages he becafBe known as an agricultural writer of great proficiency and practical knowledge. He was always the promoter and advocate of agricultural or? ganizations', and was President of the Pen? dleton . Fanner's Society for a number of years, an active and influential member of the old State Agricultural Society, and for the past ten years an honorary member of the Anderson Fanners' and Mechanics' As? sociation. He was a zealous Mason, and one. of the oldest members of the craft in this portion of the State. Thirty years ago he assisted to organize the Masonic Lodge at this place, and was its first Master. His services to the brethren are held in grateful remembrance. Maj. Seaborn held impor? tant and. responsible positions at various times in his life, and we would-be glad to receive a sketch of his career from some of his earlier friends, who possess, the requisite information..> ? ? ? ? - The,remains*>l the deceased .were-buried, at the Episcopal Church fiV1 Pendletony'W terday morning with the ceremonies of the Masonic order. BEIET MOTION. The mill dam of Mr. Harrison Tucker was considerably damaged by the heavy rain on' last Thursday night.

Russell, Sec.; T. 8. Glenn, S.; E. C. Jamison, G.; Mrs. H. A. Glenn, F. The installation was conducted by W. W. Russell, and an interesting address de? livered by him on the workings of the Grange. We are indebted to the Newberry Herald for its account of the disastrous fire in that town in advrfhee of the regular edition. The destruction of property was very great, but we are glad to learn that there were no seri? ous casualties where there was great risk of life In many instances. We sympathize with our Newberry friends in this fresh ca- I laruity. The Anderson Reading and Music Club held an interesting meeting at the residence of Dr. Wilhite on Tuesday, evening which was largely attended by young ladies and gentlemen, who have entered with renewed zest upon the objects of the organization. We are pleased to learn their determination to make the Club a permanent success. The next meeting will take place on Tuesday evening at the residence of Mr. John E. Sadler. ALARM OF FIRE. i > The residence of "Mrs. Todd, on Mam street, was discovered to be on fire about 4 o'clock p. m. on last Friday. The ringing of the fire bell brought out the citizens in large numbers at once. Believing it was impossible to save the building, owing to the fact that the roof was already on fire and the wind blowing a perfect gale, a num? ber of persons went to carrying everything out of the house. Besides the furniture, everything that could be moved, including doors, sashes and mantles, was quickly re? moved from the building. In the meantime, the cry for water was raised, and the hope was entertained of saving the house, which set every one to work, and by the bravest efforts the fire was extinguished. The col? ored people deserve great praise for their en? ergy and faithful service. It is thought that the fire originated by a spark from the black smih shop opposite?the first things burnt being a lot of old clothing and a chair in the comer of the room next to the shop. There was an opening between the shingles and weather-boarding by the side of the chair, through which a spark could be blown on such a blustery day as Friday. HOHEA PATE* LOCALS. James C. Gambrell's smoke-house was entered a few nights since and all his bacon stolen. Pressley Hannah suffered a like loss. Rev. R. M.

In behalf of my mother, I desire to return my sincere thanks to the citizens for their assistance on last Friday.

It renders its victim as dis? gusting to himself as to others. And the most humiliating of all is the consciousness that his presence is offensive to those around him. If any disease deserves the name of universal, it is this. Dietetic errors and the follies which fashion imposes upon us tend to foster and disseminate it. To the pitiful cry of its victims, is there any cure for Catarrh f there is but one answer consistent with Christian reason. God has never sent one evil into the world for which he has not sent the remedy. For the greatest of all spiritual and moral evils, the Great Physi? cian has prescribed a potent and never-fail? ing remedy. He has given explicit rules for the treatment and preservation of the spirit? ual and moral man, but He is silent in all matters relating to the physical man. It would be an unwarrantable detraction from His beneficent character to suppose that He has afflicted the greater portion of humanity with an incurable disease. The day of plagues is past. The God of Christianity is a God of Love, of Mercy. His message is "good will to all men." The earth and all contained therein was intended to supply man's wants; and surely he has no greater wants than remedies for his infirmities. Science is rapidly proving that the earth is fitted to supply man's uttermost need. New medicinal plants are constantly being dis? covered ana new properties developed from those already known. For Catarrh, the most potent remedy yet discovered is Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. Its efficacy has been tested in many thousand cases with uniform success. Cases that had been re? peatedly pronounced incurable, readily yielded to it. In confirmed, or obstinate cnscsv Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery should be taken in connection with the use of the Catarrh Remedy. Full particulars in Pierce's Memorandum Books. They are given away by druggists. LATEST BT TELEGRAPH. THE STATU QUO MAINTAINED IN COLUMBIA. Proposition for a New Elec? tion in South. Carolina and Louisiana. Republicans win New Hampshire. Columbia, March 14,1877. There has been nothing of special in? terest transpiring about Columbia for several days past. All parties seem to be waiting upon the administration at Washington to dehne its position. The election yesterday in New Hamp? shire as far as heard from resulted favora? bly to the Republicans by majorities varying only slightly from the election last year. A priva' 3 soldier who killed another soldier in New Orleans yesterday was turned over by the military authorities to Nicholl's chief of police, which action excites considerable comment. Stone will be re-nominated for District Attorney of South Carolina. The fight is between him and Wm. E. Earle, of Greenville, and it is probable that Stone will be confirmed. A number of informal caucuses have been held during the past day or two by the Southern Eepublicans in Washing? ton. With only a few exceptions, they have expressed a determination to do everything in their power to prevent the recognition of the Hampton or Nicholls goverumeLts, and should they fail in their effort--., as is now believed most probable, it is announced that they will change the political complexion of the United Stiites Senate by voting against the admission of Kellogg from Louisiana and Corbin from South Carolina. Such is their declaration at present, which may be accepted with some grains of al? lowance. ? ? The latest reports from Washington, which were received at noon to-day, state that Senator Patterson (Honest John) called upon the President this morning, and urged the adoption of a plan for a settlement of existing troubles in South Carolina which involves a new election. Patterson submitted this plan as the best solution of pending difficulties. Blaine likewise approves of this plan, which it is alleged originated with Chamberlain. The President was subsequently called upon by Ex-Senator Robertson and Ex Congressman Wallace, of South Carolina, both of whom represented that a new election would be ruinous to the indus? trial interests of the State, and suggested that the difficulties could best be solved by withdrawal of troops from the State House, when the people would adjust the matter for themselves. President Hayes received the latter gentlemen quite favorably as natives of South Carolina, but did not commit him? self one way or the other. The Republicans will assuredly at? tempt to secure a new election in both Louisiana and South Carolina, and.it is painfully evident that a speedy settle? ment of affairs in these two States can hardly be expected, if dependent upon the action of the Federal administration. C. McK. THE DRAINAGE QUESTION. Messrs. Editors : Doubtless the drainage of our swamps and bottom lands is a matter of high .importance to the country at large. It would add to the wealth and prosperity of the land owner; it would contribute much to the general hygiene of the whole people. These two propositions are conceded by all thinking men to be facts. But the mode to effect the desired end may not be very generally agreed upon. A drainage law, like all other laws, should be founded upon principles of substan? tial justice, and be consistent with estab? lished usage and the precedents.of legis? lation. J Such law should not impinge upon individual rights. Far better suffer temporary ic jonveniences which may be abnormal and merely incidental, than to hastily enact remedies that may entail greater evils. Pestilence is periodic and prevails on the mountain top as well .13 in the valley. Yob cannot quarantine cholera out of Calcutta or yellow fever out of New Orleans. Well digested law should endorse not only what is legitimate of the past, but also what may not conflict with probable future interest, and so at once assume the character of permanency. We. certainly have bad within the last decade enough of reconstruction, revision and legisla? tion. . Laws passed in haste and ignor? ance; laws parallel, conflicting, supernu? merary, redundant, now stand upon our statute books. The Drainage Law for A nderson County partakes of the char? acteristic perhaps of all these classifica? tions. It is a nullity and cannot possibly escape abolition either by the courts or the Legislature. But in its room wc will have something far better, and that will in a legal and just manner administer relief., .Let the Drainage Act passed in 1856, .and of general application be ex? amined for -remedy. With little exten? sion this Act can be made to subserve the-egd, and confiscate no property or trample upon the rights of no citizen. Every advanced farmer, every enlight? ened man will hail with hearty endorse? ment any enactment looking forward to the improvement of the salubrity, and development of the agriculture of the country. A sound conservatism and an observance of constitutional landmarks, only, can extricate from present compli? cations, give deliverance from the follies and recklessness of the late past, and secure and perpetuate the full measure of our liberties. RURAL. ? The loss of the various insurance companies by the "recent fire in Caraden was $28,000. ? One thousand and fifteen colored men of Barnwcll County had paid the Hampton tax, up to Monday night last. ? Mr. Wm. R. Dixon, of Bishopville, Su niter County, lost three children 111 one week. Diphtheria. ? Hon. T. J. Robertson has written to Columbia his purpose to pay his taxes to the Hampton government on his return from Washington. ? Col. A. C. Haskell has returned to Columbia after a month's sojourn in Washington, where he has been working in behalf of the constitutional govern? ment. ? The Columbia correspondent of the New York Herald sums up the unequiv? ocal and unanimous conclusions or the average South Carolinian as follows: "That they will submit to no other civil State government but that of Hampton is the head; that under no circumstances will the Chamberlain government be tol? erated here ; that it is utterly nseless to attempt to settle the difficulties in this State by means of a compromise commis? sion, as proposed, as on their part there is nothing to compromise; that they have resolved to pay no taxes to any other government than Hampton's; and that if that government is not recognized a standing and powerful army will have to be kept here to endeavor to keep the peace alone." OBITUARY. EZEKIEL S. NORMS departed this life at his residence on Mountain Creek on the 28th February, 1877, at the age of 83 years and nine days*. He spent his long life in rural pursuits, and "like a sheaf of corn fully ripe he has been gathered iuto the garner of the Lord." His last sickness was short, but he leaves ample evidence that he was ready to depart and be with the Lord. Early in lifo he pro? fessed Christ ns the only hope of salvation, and exemplified the sincerity of that profes? sion by a consistent Christian walk through life. He was social, yet modest and retiring, respectful, but firm in matured convictions. Industry, truth, justice, charity, gentleness, kindness and benevolence were illustrated in his daily action and conversation. He leaves three children and a disconsolate widow, with many warm friends to mourn his loss. Four children have preceded him to the frave to welcome his advent at the gate of leaven. For many years he was an accep? table Ruling Elder in the Roberts' Presbyte? rian Church, where he delighted to worship. "He sleeps in Jesus and is blest." False Impression. It is generally supposed by a certain class of citizens, who are not practical or expe? rienced, that Dyspepsia can not invariably be cured, but we are pleased to say that Gbeeb's August Flower has never, to our knowledge, failed to cure' Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint in all its forms, such as Sour Stomach, Costiveness, Sick Headache, Silpitation of the Heart, low spirits, <fec, <fec. ut of 30,000 dozen bottles sold last year, not a single failure was reported, but thou? sands of complimentary letters received from Druggists of wonderful cures.
