We hr.ve made arrangements to club tho weakly edition of the Charleston Alaes and Conner with our paper at such rates as are unparalleled in tho history of South Caro lina journalism. The agricultural depart ment of the Newt and Courier will commend that journal tc the farming community, while its columns are supplied with the latest intelligence from all parta of the world. Wo aro enabled to combine tho two papers at a price within reach of eveiy one, and expect that our frienda will seize the opportunity at once. For the smai. ium of $3.25 we will send the INTBLLIOKNCEB and the News and (burier (weekly) for one year, payment to be made strictly in advance. Subscriptions received at any time. IO ?HB.GBAHGM OF SOUTH GASOLINA. Col. D. Wyatt Aiken, in a lat? number of the News and Courier, directs the attention of the subordinate Granges to the proceed ings of the recent aession of the State Grange, and to the necessity for every sub ordinate Grange to ally itself actively with the order by making known the name of its Master and Secretary, with their poat office address, to the newly elected Secretary of tho State Grange, Thoa. W. Holloway, Pomarla, S. C. The Secretary has extra copies of the proceedings, which cannot be sent to a groat many Oranges, because the recently elected Master and Secretary hoyo not been reported to him. Although thc proceedings of tho State Grange appeared in the iHTiLXiaKNCEK, it Ia quite probable that many of the officers would like to get an extra copy, which can be secured on appli cation to the Secretary. Besides, it is im portant in other respects that the address of every Master and Secretary be in possession ot the State Grange. TEX SO?TBSBH OTTLTIVATOB. No farmer can afford to be without a finit class agricultural journal, and weare always anxious to assist them in procuring the varied and valuable information communi cated through such a channel. In a long experience in tho newspaper business, after ordering hundreds of agricultural journals for our farming friends, we have never mot a subscriber yet who waa not pleased with his investment. TL outlay is so small that ?ay one can afford it, and the benefit de rived therefrom is measured by the diligence with which Its pages are perused. Among the standard monthlies, which has famish ed practical and valuable information to the farmers of the Sooth for many years, we place the Southern Cultivator among the fore most and worthiest. It is adapted to thc wanta of this section, and especially devoted to the improvement and elevation of South ern agriculture. We are clubbing with this mont nly again this year, and will be pleased to send the INTELUOESCEB and thc Cultivator to any one address for 83.60. AH AP FEAL TO TH3 CHARITABLE. The Newberry Herald states that some of the pcoplo who were bumed out by the re cent fire in that town arc in atraltened cir eurostar.oes, and have been reduced to al most absolute poverty. Mrs. Whaley, who has several small children dopendent on her for a support, lost nearly everything she possessed, including home and store, and there are several others badly in ned of aid. The general distress of the community bas caused an appeal to the friends of the desti tute sufferers in other portlona of tho State, and we cheerfully invite the attention of the charitable to this appeal, Tho Young Men's Christiir. Association has already raado arrangements to secure donations in this immediate community, and we venture to ask (hat contributions ftom others, who may not be waited upon by thc committee, be sent to tho IirrnxLioKHCBa office. AU donations mode through this office will be acknowledged through these columns, and forwarded to our contemporary cf the New berry Herald. LOCAKOH Or EiSWlUBT tfJJLLEQK. The stockholders ot the Anderson Educa tion--1 Association met in the Court House I on Saturday last, to consider the feasibility of making a bid for tho permanent location of tho Newberry College at thia place. A proposition was raado to donate tho property cow occupied by the CaroUna Collegiate \ Institute to the Lutheran Synod, and tho; proposition was discussed for some timo by I the stockholders.

THE FENCE LAW. Our farmers are still agitating the fe low, or more properly tho "atock law," which tlie atock ia to be fenced lnstea< tho crops. The matter is discussed at Gre meetings, and there is a general disposil to make one more effort to secure this for Anderson County. Many of the fara who had been waiting for the passa gi such a law, evidently allowed their fen? to become dilapidated in the last few y< and recently, have been obliged to undi great expense to repair fences, In ord? make a crop this year. They have har] opportunity of judging as to the cos! fencing, and are doubtless more than convinced that it is an exorbitant tax u their resources. Others who were opp to the application of auch a law to Ande County have become convinced that beat interests of the farmers generally mand that auch a great outlay for fen every year Ought to be stopped, and th is far cheaper and moro satisfactory to j the steck. Wo have no doubt that a j?rity almost equal to Hampton's maj lost faU could be secured for a "stock in this County. Oar attention has bec rccted to this subject av tho present tim the perusal of a letter from Mccklei: ?ounCy, 3?. C. i where a atock law has In operation for ?meral years. Mr. R Stevenson wrote a letter some time a Rev. J. C. Chalmers, who ls well knov many of our citizens, asking for inform in regard to the practical effect of the I North Carolina, and tho foUowing ai ? was received by him.. It will ho rei bured that the law originally applied ti township, and it will be seen that Ita r cal benefits are to bo extended to the county : . ' CrtABLOTTK, N.
