Last Monday being saleday, a largs crowd of larsons from all sections of the County gathered in Anderson. Several tracts of laud were sold by the Shari ft* at very low figures. There was evidently very little money for investment. The day passed off very quietly. Informai ion from every sec tion of our County shows thai oar farmers are busily engaged upon their farms, and the prospects for a large crop this year are very Bettering. Our people are making a desperate efibrt by economy and hard work to get ?Mit of debt and once mere enjoy prosperity. They seemed generally cheer ful and evidently they are looking forward to better times. LITERARY LSOTUSB. The lecture delivered by Rev. D. E.

Our people should remember that for tho post twelve year? wa have planted cotton very extensively, and have been growing gradually poorer every year. Wo have been raising cotton to buy corn with, and at the end of the season the account stands against Mic cotton planter. We should learn from the past that we ought to raise our own grain, and after that the more cotton we can raine the better it will bo for us. We ought not to buy corn from abroad, and as long as wo do so long wlU we be getting poorer. Our farmers should rcmembor their experi ence ID 'he past, and profit from it. Plant com as a crop and cotton only in such quan tifias as can be cultivated, after thoroughly working enough corn to be sure of on ample supply for our home market. THE PEE BEE WATCHMAN.

The discussion of dif ferent topics connected with the peculiar labora of these Associations will be assigned to experienced workers, and such a gather ing of active, sealouB Christians from every denomination must be productive of whole some influences.

M ORIonr 07 THE BEB 8BT3TS. The Columbia Register calls attention to the fact that oar friend, Capt. A. J. Bitten, originate! he idea of tte famous "red shirt Glube," which becarce so general In the lest campoign. Hla mounted rifle club was the first to adopt this appropriate costume, which was a keen satire opon the "bloody shirt" so ?eng paraded and flaunted over the country, metaphorically speaking, for the delectation of the Republican party. By adopting (?his emblematic costume, upon entering a campaign which was destined to take the stain out of the ensanguined wear ing apparel of Morton, Chandler ?, Co., tho invincible heroes of peace and reconciliation between the races were enabled to move on solidly to victory. Capt. Bltton deserves the credit most assuredly for tbs happy idea, ?"id it was oar intention to make suitable mention of the fact when all traces of the "bloodyshlrt" wire removed from the State. Our Columbia contemporary has anticipated the announcement, and we can only add that sa Capt. Sitten is entitled to the credit of making the first red shirt, we think ho ?aterrea likewise tho honor of securing the airest of Carolina's maidens to keep np his wardrobe et cetera. i ???-i ??

Anderson, S. C., April 6, 1877. THE BEST PUMP IN THE WORLD. -rO NOTHING conduces more to GOOD HEALTH than PURE WATER. ' Such is fur nished by the DOABLE ACTING STONE FORCE PUMP, Manufactured by J. C. Nicholii <t Bro., Atienta, Ga., which brings the water puro and fresh from the bottom of the well. No slime or ?lth collecta on the pump or in tho well. No snails, worms or green moss gets about tho water. It is free from rust or other impurities, and can be operated by a small child with case, and brings the water fresher than ?ny oth er Pump. It is of stone, glazed inside and outside, and never will decay. It impreca tho water beyond a doubt by ventilating the well, and keeping it like a moving stream of water. With a hose attached, it becomes a good fire-engine, ever ready at your door to extinguish the fi?mes in casa of fire. It is better and cheaper than Insurance. Ita work ing givet complete satisfaction, as those acquainted with it will testily. It is rt home enterprise, permanently established, and relies on ita own merits, upon which it asks your patronage. This Pump is represented in Anderson and adj oin in g Counties, together with the Counties of Hart, Elbert, Wilkes and Oglethorpe in Georgia, ALONZO Tu. WELCH, Anderson, S. O.
