THE jggjfflpf OER, BBI8? HEBTIQH. A charter has bren granted to tho Grang ers' Savings iluukof Anderson. A comps* ny will probably organise and Kccrpt toe charter at an carly date. Messrs. B.Frank Sloan and J. W. Gray, representatives from Ooouee and Greenville Comities, visited, their horan during tho late recess Of th? House of Representatives. We would call the attention of our read cn to the rommunicstSou of Mr. B, F. Cray ton relativo to the fence law act. This is a very important matter for our people, and we hope the suggestions .made hy Mr. Cmy ton will bo promptly carried out.' Rev. Wm. Henry Strickland will preach in the Baptist Church next Sunday at 10:30 a. m. Subject-" No Justification hythe deeds of law." At night at 8;30, subject 'Death bcd repentance." Baptism will be administered at ? p. m. nt vhe river -usual place. The hill-sldr known to Andernon pedes tripns in wet weather os "Todd'a pull" has been cut down, and when sanded will a fiord no further inconvenience to foot passengers in making the trip io and fro bvtween tho N rthern portion of jtho town and the Mpiure. Wc regret to leam that tho kitchen of Kev. B. Hays was consumed by fire on last Tuesday night. Nothing Wai saved from the burning building, and it waa difficult to protect tho dwelling from the flames. Thc cause of the Ore Ls supposed to hove been accidental. Wc were in error last week in stating that Capt. A. T. Broylcs assisted in the defense of Mr. H. Lawrence Smith for assault and battery with intent to Idll. The defense wns conducted by Messrs.. Featberston <fc Brown only, mid Capt. Broylcs waa not con nect ed with tho case. Thc Legislature has passed a bill to pre vent the sale bf spirituous liquors within tlirec miles of vTOJ?wi?E romalo College. The frolics Of John B vrl???orn hrve there fore ended, it is to be hoped,; so far as tho classic shades of Willlamston and its vicini ty aro concerned. Belton produced a mad dog which played havoc with tho canine? of that quiet town on last Thursday night by biting a great many of them. The dog was killed by Capt. Ira C. Williams, and many of thc bitten dogs were also killed, and others have been put up to await results. Col. F. E. Harrison has been very suc cessful in the manufacture of thread from seed cotton by his new machinery, and Is now turning ou ta large quantity for market. The thr?ad is of fine quality, and is popular with couinimem. It mny be found for sale in several of the stores in Anderson. We hod a very pleasant call last week from our friend J. W. Bailey, editor of thoGrcon Tillo Enlerpriie and Mountaineer. Ho paid as usual, a very short visit to our town. We are always glad to greet his paper among our exchanges, and of course enjoy eyert more tis p?cSmZde uf ila genial editor. The hands havo boen doing valuable work on portions of Main street during tho last week, but they will find their services great ly needed on the side walk of the upper por tion of tho street in front of tho residences of Messrs. C. A. Heed aud 8. Bleckley. A little attention would put them in good order. Kev. J. K. Mendcnhall, who has devoted himself for the past year to evangelical work, hus been conducting a very intercs'r'ug series or meetings In the Baptist Girard, at Wii liamston. Many conversions have been made, and it Is believed much good will flow from these exercises to thc community at large. Cupt. Johu W. Daniels, Clerk of tho Court for this County, has, under tho order of Judge Cooke, prepared a list of the bonds on file in his office, given by fiduciaries, which ure about to go out of date. Parties, interested in estates in which there arc such bonds would do woll to examine the Cap tain's report, which.is on file os n matter] of reference In his office. John E. Allen, Esq., was admitted to the practice pf hiw on last Thursday, aller pass ing a thorough mid most highly creditable examination in open Court,. Mr. Allen is a young gentleman of fine qualities of mind ?ml heart. He possessor numerous friends in Uiis community, who will be gratified at tlie professional' success he will no doubt deserve and attain. Information from thc StorcvlUc country renders it almost certain that the burning of Mr. Benjamin Strickland's house was not tho work of an incendiary. Members of his fnmily were about tho house a short time previous to tho conflagration and left the house, which took fire from within, locked. Hence, it Is pretty certain that it originated occidentally. Quite a number of dogs hove boon killed In Andersen for violating tho town ordi nance by coming upon the streets unmuz zled. Wo wish all the worthless curs of the to?vn and.surrounding country could bo in duced to visit our streets in deflanco of thc ordinance; Our Sluiubcrc would ' not then bo disturbed by their howling, and flocks of sheep would not foll victims to their rapac ity. James L. Orr, Esq., spent a portion of lost week at home, resting after his arduous la bors as Chairman of thc Committee oh Privileges and Elections. Messrs. Simpson, Brown and Vnndiver also avaiiod them selves of on adjournment of toe House from Friday to ?.tm;f!:iy to pay short visits to their homes. All of these gentlemen arc In tine hcaltb. ami appear tts if legislative la bors agrees with them. We respectfully in ?ito tho attention of ?ur rcauers to tho change in thc advertise ment of tho New York Cash Store. Tho summer season ?s very dull, and money is scarce, hi consequence of which Messrs. Arn stein <t Bose, who ore determined to out do the times, ore, offering their goods at tho most reasonable prices. To bo convinced of this It is only necessary to give them a call. We would respectfully ask thc attention of our delinquent subscribers to the fact that wo moat haye, a little money lo nth a news? r=pcr on through the pumrher, and If each of our readers who knows that hs ls in debted to us for subscription will send us ono dollar on his occonnt daring this month, j h will a fiord us the desired assistance. Do "ot leave this request to be compiled with hy your neighbors, but pay in yout own dollar also, *?. newrpepes Uv? by an aggre ssion of small sums. &r. S. D. Deal, thc proprietor of the pop ular Willlamston Ho?d, has Improved and enlarge jho building by adding seven Tiew moms, for the pur.>ose of acconiraod?tiiif his increasing patronage. His howes is now Vtry commodious and comfortable In Its construction, ls kept in the neatest possible manner, and bia tablo ls stippled with tho most excellent bili of faro that conld bo wUhcd. In other words, Mr. Deal hs* a Ane baildlng, and is a model host. He Is situated within a pleasant w?lk of tho celc hrated Mineral Spring, and persons visiting .he up-country in quest of health or pleas .o*****, iiniwii.mn maim. ure cannot make a moro agreeable stop than with Mr. Der.? at Wlulaiuston. The' larmer?' are complaining somewhat of the dry weather, though it Los enabled them to get their crops ia excellent i J. r. Tho corn and cotton are free (rom gnu', and aa soon as the/ can get rain will grow off rapidly. If wo can hare rain within the no:.' week, very little damage will hare been done by the drought, exempt tao almost complete destruction of gardens. The dry weather has been very favorable to wheat and small grain geucmlly, and where there is a stand of these crops the yield will be exce?'ent. Ooh Thoma* J. profertos has received the appointment of County Auditor from Gov. Hampton for ' Anderson County. Col. Pickens is a gentleman of education and culture, whose experience In past years as Comptroller General of South Carolina eminently befit him for the work of the Auditor's office. He is a brother of Ex Gov. Pickens, and has been intimately con nected with public affairs in South QB relbia for many years. Tho Colonel will now, as he has always done heretofore, make an efficient, faithful and acceptable officer. - There ls a great deal of sickness about Anderson nt this time, caused, it is general ly believed, by thc unwholesome and extra ordinary weather wo have been having. These cases are not caused by anything of a local character, rjs they, have manifested va rious forms of attack, showing that it is only thc -development of some physical weakness attaching to thc constitution ot Individuals, and brought out by the remark ably und unseasonable weather. Kev. W. H. Strickland, of this pla?-, baa been elected to deliver the annual literary address before tho Philosophien and Adel phian Societies of Fuminn University du ring the commencement exercises of that institution of learning. Thc address will bo delivered in tho Court House ot Green ville on tho evening of Tuesday, the 10th inst., and those present will no doubt enjov a literary treat. These societies have made a good selection for their orator, and art fortunate in having secured thc acceptance of Mr. Strickland. Mr. A. B. Towers returned on Thursdaj last from his visit to New Orleans to r.ttenc tlif? Southern General Assembly of tin Presbyterian Church. Mr. Towers enjoyet his visit greatly, iipt only front the pleasun of the scssiorj of thc Church Council, hu from many pleasant incidents connect?e with his trip. Whilo gone he visited wi tl an excursion party tho mouth of the Mis sissippi river, and was much pleased witl tho work of deepening tho bcd of the rive by means of the celebrated jetties, and h has the strongest faith in the feasibility nm ultimate success of the plan adopted. We are indebted to Mr. G. W. Fant for i box of beautiful Souvenir Papeterie, sent u as a sample of one of the many ciegan styles of letter, note and business pope kept by him at the Post Office Book Storr.

Governor Hampton has appointed M: Samuel E. Moore Treasurer for Anderso County. There were several othor appl cants for ibis office, any one of wboi l is competent and suitable for the positioi ! and who would have been acceptable to tl [ people of Anderson County if appoint? ! Treasurer. Mr. Moore was Tax Collect? Vi der Gov. Orr's administration, and pro ably before that time. Ho is therefore f miliar with thc duties of the office, ar will discharge them faith fully and sat is fa torily. He was a brave soldier in thc la war, and lost a ieg in his country's servie Ile is a gentleman nf character and inte rity, whose appointment meets with tl people's approbation. Mr. John C. Sanier, general travellii agent of thc Columbia Register, is in Andi son for the purpose of receiving new sn scriptions and renewing those which ha expired. The Register has always been popular paper in Anderson, and this pop hunty has bc.-n very much increased by t recent change in that office-, whereby C? James A. Hoyt, formerly of the INTEI.I GENCKn, has assumed editorial charge oft paper. Under the new management t Register has been very much improved, contains a great deal moro reading matt and the editorial department is conduct with riiarkcl ability. Thc paper common itself to, and will doubtless receive, a libe patronage from our people. Tlie bondholders of tho Pendleton Mar faeturing Company met at tho Pacte building on last Friday to consider wi course they will p?raos with regard to I valuable property they bave purchased, ai after deliberating upon the subject, decic to repair thc buildings and machinery so to put it in first class running order. W< will bc begun on it Immediately, and i hoped to have it in full operation befor great while. Tho repairing will bc d< nmler tho supervision of Messrs. L. Reid, A. J. Sitton and Thos.

Tho Williatnston Female College C mettccment will come off on the 20th 21st nr ?ids month, as will be seen by rs encc to our advertising columns. T occasions are always of thc metft plea character imaginable, and they Invari attract a large at?erid?n"^ vi tim eiiic oi surrounding country, besides numeren* Hora from a dictance.

No doubt many persona are enjo the anticipation or being present on coming occasion, which cannot fail, n tho management of Prof, Lander, to grand suocesa, Among the many evils which are to to this country from tho Rus-do-Tui war, the greatest one wo have heard pi ted bi tint we are to suffer from long tinned droughts during tho progress ol war, for tho prognosticators of this cala tay that the heavy ccrmonading nlonj Turkish frontier will ottractallthcmo! to that region, leavinw nv tr ,->areh up here; au;', they point, in proof of theil rectness, to the fnct that while wc have so dry there have been thc most uni ffiw.',;.:-r>'r>v'v -,-r-r-----*-; ^-?.i dented floods on the Danube. If those prophecies be true, we had better request the European belligerents to suspend opern tien" ?r.t?; our cnipa ?xe laid by, or perheps we can get np a war with Mexico, if neces sary, to secure a aufflcicnt imount of mois ture fe? this continent.

He has many friends herc who enjoyed bbl visit to An derson. THE TEMPERANCE EXCURSION. Thc Temperance Pic Nie Excursion to Williamston on last Saturday wes a very great success. Three coaches were filled with the excursionists from Andersen, and quito a number of persons were present who went from thc surrounding country by pri vate conveyance. Tho Mineral Spring, with its beautiful park, afforded a most pleasant location for enjoying a pic nie frolic, and all present, old and young, ladies and gentlemen, seemed to lind pleasure In the occasion. Ir. tho morning, excellent addresses were delivered by Rev. S. Lender, Dr. H. I. Eptlng and Col. E. M. Ruckcr upon the subject of Temperance, after which a basket dinner was general'/ partaken of by all i -esent. The Anderson Cornet Rand attended, and made splendid music for the day, thereby.adding much to tho pleasure of all who were present. Wo learn that Anderson Division, under whoso auspices thc excursion train ran, realized enough from thc salo of tickets to clear expenses, and therefore wc can pronounce tho affair, both socially and financially, a complete success. THE CIRCUIT COURT. *hc May Tenn of Court closed on last Thursday, and was principally noted for the rapidity with which Judge Recd dis posal of thc matters on the civil side of the Court, and ns the day upon which those convicted of crimes mid offences during thc term were sentenced. Orr Lattimer, convicted of burglary, wa? granted a new trial. Jack Manee, convicted of retailing with out '.'-ouse, was sentenced to one month's inn. .-i lonment in jail, and twenty dollars fin. , Haides the cost of the prosecution. j]oiiel D. F.

Having transacted all thc business ready for the Court at this terni. Judge Reed closed thc Court on Thursday evening, and on Friday morning lett for Charleston, whither business called him. JUDGE REED AT ABBEVILLE. The Press <?. Banner contains the following account of a complimentary serenade given Judge Recd during the late term of the Ab beville Court : The Abbeville Silver Cornet Band sere naded Judge Recd at tho Central Hotel Wednesday night. After playing several f?eces of excellent music tho Judge was oudly called for. He promptly responded in a short an 1 beautiful speech in which he referred to "days of auld sync," when he was Solicitor of thia Circuit. He never missed attending a Court at Abbeville from 1850 to 18G8-eighteen years. In that time and during his visits nc had formed a hig'i opinion of the place, and a strong attac_ ment for the people of Abbeville county, who have always been distinguished for their Intelligence, education, culture, high character and many virtues. They were once the richest people in the State, and he was lead to believe from thc looks of this beautiful town that the sons of those who had passed off the stage of action possessed much of their fathers' public spi ri t and en terprise. After paying a deserved tribute to tlic Judges ot the old regime he said that he should take them for his guide, and would, to tho extent of his humble ability, seek to . ?Ululate their virtues. He appreciated this mark cf attention and kindness, which wiu given, lie supposed, more on account of the performance of his duties in former years, then for anything ho had done at this ses sion of the Court. After again assuring them of his thanks he withdrew. OUR BOOR TABLE. TUE WESTMINSTER REVIEW ron APOIL.
