After consulta tion, they decided to* send delegates to rep resent the town of Anderson, and Messrs. J. S. Murray aad W. W. Humphreys were chosen. We think the action of the Council in deciding to have Anderson represented at this meeting waa wise, and are glad to announce that the gentlemen designated took their departure for Augusta on last I Tuesday, where we have no doubt they will faithfully and ably represent the interests of j I this town and County. HAMPTON BALL A7 ?BSDL1T0Y. Tho ball given by tho Pendleton Dancing Club in Hunter's Hall on lost Friday even ing in honor Of Gov. Hampton, was a most brilliant and successful affair, and was large ly attended from different portions of the up-country. The room was nicely fitted up, and was most elegantly and tastefully deco rated by thc fair daughters of Pendleton. Upon entering tho hall a handsome en graving of our Governor hung below the conqueror's motto-"Veni vidi viet"-in guilt letters, and boneath was "Hampton our. Governor," in evergreen letters trimmed in roses of different hues. A magnificent j cornu copia filled with rare and choice hot house dowers hung upon the wall, em blematic of returning prosperity to our State, and in another place an evergreen anchor with tho words "Anchored at Last," told that the ship of 8tate bad passed safely through tho raging storm of Republicanism, and was now secure and safe in tho port of peace and rest. Thoso present enjoyed themselves beyond expression, and tho maxes of the dance beguiled the followers of Terpsichore until a late hour of thc night, when they departed with moat pleasant memories o thc evening. DISASTROUS HAIL STORM. Anderson County of late years has been noted for severe and destructive hail storms, but on iast Saturday the most extensive and disastrous one which bas ever visiteo! this section passed f.om above Walhalla through the middle of this County to a point below Irwin's Mill in Abbeville, do ing great and irreparable injury to crops, gardens and bouses. Of course it was not equally destructive at all points, but mora than half of lie route has been left a scene of desolation and ruin. Starting at Walhalla, thr hail fell fast and thick, but was small and did little or no se rious injury until it reached the neighbor hood of Seneca City, where it gathered fury and fell to the depth of several inches upon the level ground. Here tho fury of the storm seamed to travel down the river, de stroying from one to two-thirds of the wheat and cotton crops, killing chickens, ; and in one instance breaking a pig's back, ' until it reached a point three or four miles I below Maxwell's bridge, where it ceased. At about sevan o'clock the storm reached Pendleton, and'.was comparatively iigbt, but gathered its wrath borne two miles this ? side, and was destructive along and below j the Une of the railroad until it struck Un. Six and Twenty Creek, where it war very I disastrous in man/ places, the reports from the plantations of Messrs. J. Belton Wat j son and Wm. Burr las having suffered most. After passing this point it was lighter until it reached the town of Anderson, about 8 p. m. The hail her? was ss largo but not as thic\ ac at ?om? other points, and beyond the breaming of between Laven hundred and on? thousand panes of glass in tho village, did very little injury. From this point i* seemed to go up Rocky River, and was ter rific from ?Lo forks of the road at Mr. rt. J. Poole's over to the Balley settlement on the [ river, s After passing this point, it was again light, untU it'cam? to Broadaway Oreel?, from which point over to Ncal'a C.eak it wan probably more severe than' at any other place. After passing this point, lt became \ gradually lighter until it disappeared. The area of tho storm was, as far as beard from, about clxty miles in length, with an average breadth of from five to eight miles. It seemed to bc worse along thc line of wa ter-courses and in hilly sections. Birds and chickens were'kiiled in varions portions of j the County, and groat damage done to tho fruit erop. Upon the plantation of Dr. Adgcr, near Pendleton, a horse which had been driven rapidly from thc villago dropped [ dead, whether from the ?fleets of the hail or not Is unknown. There were quantities of j haO.atnnrai aft Innre as Biilnna.Mr? mnJt arana as large as hen-eggs, measuring two inches in diameter. The ball wai followed by heavy, washing rains, which also did very considerable damage. Many of our citizens have loot heavily. Their crops of small grain and cotton have been literally ruined, and they ar?riow compelled, to replant in order to make anything. The question with many of them is, whether to replant cotton or corn ; and if we may be pardoned for ob truding pur advice upon formers about tais _ __U_'..??i (k.M. ?~ ?Ur? - ruw.ivM| ...#?.... - - 4* mt all land thai cotton has been destroyed j upon.

It Is not impossible that if Oar peonle will plant cora aad peas '.vhorc they bare bad cotton destroyed, they may nut bp such very heavy losers by the hail. At any'rate,'we know that our people are a busy and energetic people, and if labor ca? repair their loases, they will be speedily raj BIHOIFCI COHYESTI97T.

DI5C?IMlHAHOH VS HVtlBRTB, Mr. Orr prcsentcd^tho Memorial of th Anderson Board of Trado in the House c Representatives on last Thursday, sskin for legislation upon tbs subject of unjin discriminations by railroads, and it was tx ferred to the Committee ou Railroads, wit instructions, to report ~n bill to cqitelh freights. We have so repeatedly expresse ; our viewa upon this subject that it is scare ly necessary for os to signify approbation i this measure. The present abominable ay tem of adding to intermediate points a sail dent amount to pay ?br the low rat necessitated to points at which there is cor petition, has been practiced by the Soul Carolina Road to auch a tyrannical extol that the Legislature owes it to the people tho wholo State to put an end to lt as speed ly as possible. This road, controlling os docs the Greenville and Columbia and tl Blue Ridgo Railroads, has by its short sigr. ed course injured many portion* of V State, and that too, as we believe, withe receiving commensurate reward for ilse By making freights high to intermedia points and low to Greenville, they ha driven large quantit L-s of trado to that d and points along tho Air Lice Railroi The greater portion of goods sold In Orot ville and Spartanburg aro carried over t Air Line, which la the direct, and natu shipping route at those points to or fit tho North or West, and the South Caroll Rood ought to ht .e foreseen that lt coi not hopj to carry the freights of points t uatcd Uko these. Hence it was dearly th policy lo give cheap rates to Iniermcdi points where they havo tho entire carry] trade, and by building up a largo bunin in these towns secura the transportation an equally large amount of weights. ] instead of this they have waged war on term cd late towna by pladng sn enormoti high tariff upon all freights, thereby fore the trad" from thee places to Greeny and Spartanburg where tho Air Line a plies the greater part of thdr freights. 1 result ls that GreenviUo and Spartanb are being 'built up whilo'Anderson, At ville, Union and roch points are being jared. Another point of view, worthy of con craf lon, is that trade is driven' away fi Charleston to Atlanta and the North this contracted policy, for it is the ama towns in the State which have boen the 1 patrons of our own "dty by tho ssa," wi the merchants of Greenville and Spart burg generally buy further from ho Hence, when trado is driven from ti ?maller towns to points on the Air L the business of Charleston is of course jared to that extent. We do not believe make a mip'ake In saying that the cone of the South Carolina Road has injt Charleston and many other points in Sc Carolina immensely. It is jost one of tl cases where legislative interference is nae and we trust the timo has arrived w Carolina has a General Assembly tbs patriotic and firm enough to apply remedy which has to long been neede protect all aectioas of our State rVom fur injury et tho hands of rn unfeeling oppressive monopoly. - rn? - ^--_?t $ T* TBS COLO MD ?S0?LB 07 ASH COB CvtTBTT.
