?;>THE INETLLI6M0ER. Lr,. ' 1 L.OCAL MATTERS. P02E?NA GBAHGB. We are requested to announce that the regu^quarteriy meeting of Pomona Grange ?will be held in Temperance Hall at this place on next Saturday, the 7th day of April, at 10 o'clock a. m. Delegates are requested to meet promptly, as business of importance will be laid before the Grange. SALEDAY. Last Monday being saleday, a large crowd of persons from all sections of the County gathered in Anderson. Several tracts of land were sold by the Sheriff at very low figures. There was evidently very little money for investment. The day passed off very quietly. Information from every sec? tion of our County shows that our farmers are busily engaged upon their farms, and the prospects for a large crop this year are very flattering. Our people are making a desperate effort by economy and hard work to get out of debt and once more enjoy prosperity. They seemed generally cheer? ful and evidently they are looking forward to better times. LITE EASY LECTURE. ? The lecture delivered by Rev. D. E. Frier ron before the society of "Woman's Mission to Woman," on Wednesday evening, the 28th ult., in Temperance Hall, was as might haye been expected, a polished and highly interesting discourse. The subject selected by tie speaker was "Woman's Work," and '"air^ho" arelahnTfcr with Mr. Friereon's h beautiful and terse manner of oratory can * well imagine the treat enjoyed by these who were present. Quite a number of persons were present, trad we learn the Society in? tends having a series of lectures from differ ? ont persons during the sumroor. We wish them much success in their undertaking to advance the missionary cause. PLAUT C0BH. Our people should remember that for the past twelve- years we have planted cotton very extensively,' and have been growing gradually poorer every year. We have been raising cotton to buy corn with, and at the jj. end of the season the account stands against the cotton planter. We should learn from the past that we ought to raise our own grain, and after that the more cotton we can raise the better it will be for us. We ought not to buy corn from abroad, and as long as . we do so long will we be getting poorer. Our farmers should remember their experi? ence in the post, and profit from it. Plant com as a crop and cotton only in such quan? tities as can be cultivated, after thoroughly working enough com to be sure of an ample supply for our home market THE SEE DEE WATCHMAN. This is the name of a new paper which . Messrs. A. A. & F. A. Gilbert propose com? mencing the publication of between the 10th and 20th hurt., at Darlington C. HM S. C These gentlemen were for a number of years connected with the Sumter Watch? man, and propose to make their new paper "a vigorous, sound, fresh, first-class news? paper." The prospectus announces that "it will- represent and work earnestly for the .development of the interest of every portion of Darlington County, specially, and in so far as may be practicable to extend its influ? ence for good to the wider circle embodied in its name. To the State it will be an un? faltering defender of high-toned, honest and economical government, and hence the strong advocate of honest and competent men for office, while it will seek, through every available chancdl, to assist in uplift? ing our loved mother Carolina and planting her feet firmly , upon that platform on which she won all of her illustrious past." ? Y. SI. C. A. The second annual convention of the Young Men's Christian Associations will be held in Greenville on the 28th, 27th, 28th and 29th days of April. This meeting is composed of delegates from the various As? sociations throughout the State, and all oth? er persons who are in sympathy with its ob? jects will be heartily welcomed to take part in its deliberations. The discussion of dif? ferent topics connected with the peculiar labors of these Associations will be assigned to experienced workers, and such a gather? ing of active, zealous Christians from every denomination must be productive of whole? some influences. The usual reduction on the railroads of three cents a mile has been granted to delegates, who are requested to forward their names at once to Mr. L. B. Austin, Greenville, 8. C, so that homes may be assigned them on arrival. We presume that delegates will be appointed from An? derson at the regular business meeting of the Young Men's Christian Association, which takes place on next Wednesday even? ing. .;. . '. ' ' 0RIGIE OF THE SED SHIRTS. The Columbia Register calls attention to the fact that our friend, Capt. A. J. Sit ton, originated the idea of the famous "red shirt clubs," which became so general in the last. campaign. His mounted rifle club was the first to adopt this appropriate costume, which was a keen satire upon the "bloody j shirt" so long paraded and flaunted over the country, metaphorically speaking, for the delectation of the Republican party. By adopting-.this emblematic costume, - upon | entering a campaign which was destined to take the stain out of the ensanguined wear-' ing apparel of Morton, Chandler & Co., the Invincible heroes of peace and reconciliation between the races were enabled to move on solidly to victory. Capt. Sitton deserves the j credit most assuredly for the happy idea, and it was our intention to make suitable mention of the fact when all traces of the "bloody shirt" were removed from the State. Our Columbia contemporary has anticipated the announcement, and we can only add that as Capt. Sitton is entitled to the credit of making the first red shirt, we think he deserves likewise the honor of securing the fairest of Carolina's maidens to keep up his wardrobe et cetera. A WASHING TO PABSHTS. The melancholy accident which occurred recently at the Abbeville depot, resulting in the instant death of a promising little boy, reminds us that parents in Anderson ought to be placed upon their guard to prevent a similar accident at the depot here. Almost every day, when the cars arrive, there is a crowd of boys at the depot, and many of them get upon the train when it is in mo? tion, or ran ahead of the cars as they are being shifted, or in some other manner en? danger their lives by risky performances. Doubtless the parents are oftentimes una? ware of the fact that their boys frequent the depot at that time, and in case of an acci? dent, like the sad occurrence in Abbeville, the bereaved parents would be astounded to know that their boy incurred such riBks. We have no disposition to curtail any proper enjoyment of the juveniles, nor are we con? cerned in this matter except for the safety and happiness of our neighbors, whose chil? dren are allowed to visit the depot at a time when there is a rush and hurry to get through the business of the railroad. Be? sides the danger involved, when boys are so prone to take great risks upon themselves if unrestrained in their conduct, the presence of so many at the time specified must often interfere and annoy the railroad officials, who are only allowed a few minutes to get through with considerable business. Parents can revolve this matter in their own minds, and then act for themselves. BBIEF XSHTIOH. Bev. W. H. Stridden* will preach in the Methodist Church on next Sunday evening ?t 8 o'clock. The attention of our Pendleton friends is called to the card of Dr. W. G. Browne, dentist. Give him a call. Rev. H. P. Chreitzberg preached a eermon to the children, illustrated with blackboard exercises, on last Sunday afternoon. The National Bank of Anderson now closes business at three o'clock, and persons inter? ested will make a note of this change, so as not to be counted out. Charles Farrar Stringer is the welcome guest of our esteemed friend, A. J. S., of Belton. We predict that he will inherit a fortune from his distinguished namesake. Dr. G. M. Jones has removed his office to Capt. A. T. Broyles' building, opposite j the old Benson House, up-3talrs> where he-) will be glad to see his old friends and custo->, mere. ? I The Methodist parsonage is being painted and ornamented, which will add to the at tractions of McDuffie street. The painting is done by Mr. Henry Garrison in his best style. The Union Meeting of the Second Union District, Saluda Baptist Association, will^e held with Dorchester Church, beginning on the Friday before the fifth Sabbath in this month. . The regular meeting of Storeville Grange takes place on Saturday, 14th of April, at two o'clock p. m. A speech may be expec? ted from one of the energetic and [progres? sive farmers of Martin township. "Do you think Hampton will be the Gov? ernor?" The removal of the troops from the State House will settle this question, which we have already answered 1,134 times' in private conversation. Give us a rest! Hopewell Democratic Club will meet at the usual place on Saturday next, 7th of April, at two o'clock p. m. Business of importance claims the attention of the Club, and all the members are requested to attend. Mr. John B. Watson has a fine piece of Barley growing on his lot in town. The first head of barley appeared in his patch on the 31st of March last, which is earlier than any we have heard of in this County. It is a good crop and should be more generally -planted. Mr. John C. Sanier, general agent for the Columbia Register, was in town last Satur? day, looking after the interests ef the live, excellent and reliable journal he represents. Mr. Squier is a pleasant gentleman, and has done much to advance the interests of the Register throughout the State. We learn that the pupils of the Carolina Collegiate Institute intend having a celebra? tion on the first of May next Miss Stark Bellotte has been chosen Queen for the occa? sion, which will doubtless be a most pleasant' and agreeable one. A further mention of the programme will be given hereafter. Two merchants in Anderson sowed an oat crop last fall upon shares. One furnished the land and the seed oats, and the other prepared the ground and put in the seed. The crop is an entire failure, and now they are sorely puzzled about a division of the proceeds (?) when other people will be har 'vesting oafs. We would call attention to the advertise? ment of Messrs. Arnstein & Rose. These gentlemen are now receiving a large and well selected stock of dry goods and notions for the spring and summer season, prepara? tory to suppling their increasing trade. The pubuc are respectfully invited to call and examine their stock. Mr. Z. D. Chamblee, the proprietor of the Anderson Emporium of Fashion, is receiv? ing a full stock of spring and summer goods in his line, and the ladies of the Town and County will doubtless delight in attesting their appreciation of the many beautiful and I bewitching articles brought on to please their tastes. See the advertisement in an? other column. The quarterly session of the Grand Divis? ion of South Carolina, Sons of Temperance, will be held at Chester on Wednesday, 25th of April, at 7i p. m. Delegates must reach Columbia in time to take the train leaving for Chester on the morning of the 25th inst., and will reach their destination at 4 p. m. The up-country delegates, therefore, must leave home on Tuesday morning. One of the most striking cases of absent mindedness occurred last 8unday we have ever known. A colored man named Joe Washington, living upon the plantation of Mr. E. M. Holland, ploughed in the field nearly all day, believing fully that it was Saturday. He did an extra fine day's work upon the supposition that he was closing up the week, and felt heartily ashamed of the mishap when the truth was told him the next day. SONS OF TEMPERANCE.

The citizens of this community will regret io Karri thai; the excellent gentleth?n.above named left Charleston on' ?ast"Thursday for Eufaula, Alabama, where he will make his home in the future. Mr. Gregory has many friends and admirers' in this town, and we regret that he has found his duty leads him to reside in. -mother State. He carries with' him the warmest .wishes for his success and1 prosperity in his new home. Speaking of him the Charleston News ana* Courier says: It is learned with sincere regret that this highly respocted young Baptist minister has taken his departure hence to reside perma? nently in the flourishing town of Eufaula, Alabama, i}d Irving been called to the pas? torate of the First Baptist Church. Great merest is felt here'in the future of Mr. Gregory, because here" he was born, I reared, edt>:ated and ordained to th?Chris tian minist.. y, and here had much honor in I the estimation of a people who saw him de? velop from boyhood into physical and intel? lectual nnsr.hoc^ v After careful prepara? tion he was ordained in January, 1871, at the First Baptist Church, the Rev. Drs., WInkler and Shuck and-Eey. Mf:^ines officiating, in the presence1 of a large^and' deeply interested congregation. After; five ?ears' devoted and faithful service atrMount leasant, Christ Church Parish, he removed to Kingstrc-.f in this State, and did''much pastoral and general evangelical work. He has been actively identified with,the South? ern Baptist. State "ConVentibnJ Charleston BaptLeL~ Association,' and the Baptist Semi? nar;' at Greenville", and in all these impor? tant fields cf Christian labor has been zeal? ous and successful. .?'? About tea days ago he was invited to go to Eufaula by the congregation of the First Baptist Church there. He went, proved ac? ceptable, whs regularly called to that charge,, accepted the call and left Charleston for his new home on last Thursday, accompanied by his estimable family. Mr. Gregory is a ready and graceful writer and speaker, and one of the growing lights of the Baptist de? nomination. County Correspondence: HOMn-ATIOH OF TBIA1] JUSTICE.

After the services at Barker's Creek, Mr. Murray organized a "Woman's Mission Society," with Mrs. McDavid pres? ident, and Mrs. Geer secretary and treasu? rer.The painful patient looking for good news from Washington has been at last re? lieved by Gen.

Well, he is, but It must not b.- inferred that he is averse to wedlock. "A good un" could easily induce him to take pti3sage on the uncertain sea of matrimony.The Fork proper is that part of Anderson lying between Seneca and Tugalo rivers extending southward from the Oconee line, a distance of ten miles, to An dereonville, where these streams unite and form the Savannah.

CITIZEN! Long's Shop is situated in the extreme Southern side of Varcnnes Township, im? mediately on the old Leatherdeal Road, nine miles South of Anderson C. R. The pro? prietor of this beautiful and healthy loca? tion, Mr. John Long, has a Bhop in which he manufactures buggies and wagons, and Jack Arnold, (colored) runs a blacksmith shop. Mr. Long's farming interests are con? siderable, having his lands cultivated by several tenants. In a few hundred yards of this place, immediately where the old Mid dleton Road crosses the Leatherdeal, is the neat and beau'iful residence of Mr. G. W. Long! Ho and his nephew, W. A. Long, have a cotton gin and thresher, both pro? pelled by steam, ginning annually from 400 to 500 bales of cotton. They run the thresh? er in its season oh the itinerant plan, doing ? quite a lucrative business. Mr. G. W. Long has a manufacturing apparatus for extract ing and con vertingthe juice of the sorghum cane into syrup. He embarked in this en ' terprise last fall', and we presume he will I find it-profitable, as he made over 2000 gal? lons. In one mile of this place, Mr. Henry Long keeps , pp a buggy and; .wagon shop. He, as well as G. W.'Long, is pretty exten? sively engaged in farming. Mr. John J.

Such is fur jj( nished by the DOUBLE ACTING STONE FORCE PUMP, Manufactured by J. C. Nichols & Bro., Atlanta, Ga., which brings the water pure and fresh from the bottom of the well. No slime or filth collects on the pump or in the well. No snails, worms or green moss gets about the water. It is free from rust or other impurities, and can be operated by a small child with ease, and brings the water fresher than any oth? er Pump.
