THE INTELLIGENCER. IiOCAIi MATTERS. TO ADVERTISERS. The Anderson Intelligekceb has the largest circulation of any country paper published in the State, and has more than three times the circulation of any other pa? per in Anderson County. We print and circulate regularly 1776 papers. Our list in the County has increased instead of dimin? ished, and we hope to receive a still greater increase during the coming fall. We are willing at any time to verify the above by an inspection of our subscription book, or our paper bills; or when desired, we will furnish advertisers with an affidavit of the correctness of our statement as to the circu? lation Of the intelligence. ' BRIEF KS5TX0H. Mr. J. C. Keys lost a fine milch cow a few days ago from choking to death with a peach. The minutes of the last Saluda Baptist Association are now ready for delivery at this office, and Churches entitled to receive them can get them by sending. The Lowndesville and Ruckersville Base Ball Clubs played a match game near Lowndesville on last Saturday. We have not heard the result, though suppose Lowndesville won. The Greenville bound train of the G. & C. R. R. on last Saturday ran off near Ninety Six, injuring a box car and causing a delay of some two hours, which threw the train into Anderson after eleven o'clock at night. Capt. John McGrath has taken a warrant for three citizens of Anderson, upon the charge of illegal voting in the late town election. The charge is without foundation, and the defendants will certainly be ac? quitted. Mr. Samuel M. Crayton brought to our office last week a very large and delicious watermelon which' weighed thirty-eight pounds. It was the largest we have seen during the present year, and shows that Mr. Crayton is an expert in the cultivation of watermelons. The trade of Anderson bids fair to increase -very much this fell. Lower freight rates and brighter business prospects have made our merchants determined to sell as low for cash as any other town in South Carolina. Try our markets and see if these promises are not carried out on all cash sales. We noticed one day last week a wagon load of cottorrfrom Hart County, Georgia, which was sold in Anderson and a load of supplies and goods carried back in its place. The farmers of this and adjoining Counties will, we believe, find this as cheap a cash market this Fall as any in the State. Miss Lizzie Williams, of the popular Ladies Store in Anderson, has gone on to New York, where she proposes to lay in an extensive stock of the most tempting goods, which will arrive in Anderson very soon, and then the gentlemen may prepare to hand over a considerable portion of the con? tents of their pocket books. Rev. E. R. Cars well has just closed an interesting revival meeting at Lebanon Church. During its continuance eighteen members were received, one of whom was oversixty-six years old. On Sabbath morn? ing the congregation was very large, num? bering some eight hundred persons. The exercises were quiet and orderly during the entire meeting. Mr. A. J. Watt left Anderson on last Monday morning for Charleston, for the purpose of buying a stock of goods, which he will open out in the store-house about eight miles south of this place, on the road to Lowndesville. Mr. Watt has been en? gaged in the mercantile business for six or seven years in Anderson, as clerk for several of our most enterprising firms, and is thor? oughly informed as to the wants of the peo? ple. We wish him much success. The business houses of Anderson are nearly all represented in New York at this time. Messrs. B. F. Crayton, 8. Bleckley, A. B. Towers, J. P. Reed, jr., W. F. Barr, N. K. Sullivan, P. K. McCulIy and W. S. Ligon, representing their respective firms, are in the Northern markets purchasing to meet the demands of their customers. Mr. Arnstein has also been North for some weeks past purchasing for the New York Cash Store. They will all return in a few days, and then Anderson will be alive with busi? ness and trade. We would call attention to the advertise? ment of the Williamston Female College, which appears elsewhere. This institution is under the control of Prof. S. Lander, who is so well known in South Carolina as an accomplished teacher and polished gentle? man that it is useless for us to attempt to add to his reputation or the reputation of the College over which he presides. The ladies it has graduated attest its praises more thoroughly and more practically than words can do. A young gentleman, representing one of the leading houses in Charleston, was in Anderson last week, and undertook to pay an evening visit to some lady friends in the place. About eleven o'clock he withdrew, and attempted to wind bis way through the streets of this extensive town to his hotel. He, however, missed his way, stirred up all the dogs in the Southern end of town, and was finally overtaken by a policeman, who showed him back to the Waverly House. The gentleman in question thinks it is very easy to get lost in as large a place as Ander? son, especially where on6 has been living in a small town like Charles ton. The committee appointed by the Demo? cratic Club of Anderson have, under in? structions of the Club, taken out warrants for the whole of the persons charged with illegal voting in the late town election. The persons embraced in the warrant are Isham Harrison, Charley Calhoun, Mack Singleton, William Gaillard, Lewis Wil? liams, David Hagood and Alex. Saxton. Next Saturday, at 1Q o'clock a. m., has been fixed for the holding of the preliminary ex? amination. In taking out these warrants the committee have performed an unpleas? ant but important duty, for which the peo? ple of our town are under many obligations. It will, in the future, we have no doubt, prevent a repetition of the evil of illegal voting from which we have suffered in this town. _?: _ CHEAP TELEGRAPHING. The following telegram, which Mr. E. T. Cashine has kindly placed in our possession, explains itself, and gives to our readers the gratifying information that a great reduction lias been made in the rates of telegraphing between points on the Greenville and Co? lumbia and Blue Ridge Railroad : Columbia, S. C, Sept. 12, 1877. To All Operators : The Greenville and Columbia Railroad T( legraph Company on and after this date will charge for telegrams on this line twen? ty-five cents for ten words, and two cents for each additional word, between any two points, including the Blue Ridge line. JABEZ NORTON, Jr., Manager. _ _ TOWN MEETING. ru The citizens of Anderson will meet in the Court House on- Friday night at 8 o'clock for the purpose of electing ten delegates to the Railroad Convention-which meets at this place on next Tuesday. A full atten? dance of the taxpayers and citizens of the town is important. Do not neglect to be present. E AI LEO AD CONVENTION. We would call the attention of the citi? zens of Varennes, Hall and Corner town? ships of this County to the announcement about the Railroad Convention, which is to be held in Anderson on next Tuesday. As the proposed road runs through these town? ships we would suggest that the citizens of each of those townships meet at their re? spective places of public meeting on next Saturday, at three o'clock in the afternoon, for the purpose of electing ten delegates to the Convention. It is an important matter, and we hope every township mentioned will attend to the suggestion we make. CAMP MEETING. The annual meeting of the Methodists at Sandy Springs Camp Ground begins to-day and will continue until after next Sabbath, if not longer. Rev. O. A. Darby, the Pre? siding Elder, and other distinguished di? vines of this denomination are expected to be in attendance for the purpose of minister? ing to the spiritual wants of the hundreds who will be camped there and will attend divine services. A special passenger train on the Blue Ridge Railroad has been arranged for next Sunday, the 16th inst. It will leave Walhalla at 8:30 a. m. and arrive at Sandy Springs about 10 or 10:30. An? other train will leave Anderson at 9:30 a. m. for the camp ground, and, returning in the afternoon, will leave Sandy Springs at 4 o'clock. A very large attendance is antici? pated. THE CANTATA. The citizens of Anderson were afforded two very pleasant evenings last week by the ladies of the Episcopal Church, who pre? sented in the Masonic Hall the entertaining Cantata of the "Flower Queen," or "The Coronation of the Rose." The stage, which was dressed under the direction of Miss Liz? zie Morris, who also originated the enter? tainment, represented a forest dell, and was a perfect model of rustic beauty. The Cantata was rendered by a number of young ladies in a most highly creditable and in? teresting manner. After the conclusion of the Cantata, refreshments were in readiness, and those present followed the charming mental treat they, had enjoyed by treating their appetites to some of the many delica? cies prepared for the evening. We learn that the ladies realized over one hundred dollars, which is to be appropriated to Grace Church. REVENUE OFFICIALS. On last Friday morning a party of Reve? nue officers visited the store of Messrs. Smith & Sloan, of Pendleton, and at the time of their entry both of the proprietors were absent, and their clerk had gone into a back room with a customer for some meal. When the clerk returned, the officers asked to examine the tobacco-boxes, which was granted, and they were found to be properly stamped. The proprietors had by this time returned, and the officers asked to see their license to sell tobacco. Upon looking in their show-case, where it was kept, they found the license gone. It could not be found anywhere. The license was seen in the show-case the day before by several cus? tomers, and the suspicion that it was re? moved by the detectives is very generally indulged at Pendleton. The gentlemen I composing the firm of Smith & Sloan stand as high as any in the State, and no person would doubt for an instant their statement of the matter, besides which is the statement of some of their customers who noticed the license there the day before. The circum? stances of the transaction are all against the detectives, who ought to be indicted in the State Courts for larceny. The Revenue offi? cers of South Carolina are generally of a class of men who are a disgrace to the pub? lic service of any State. If President Hayes wishes to ingratiate himself into the people's favor in South Carolina, he can do so more speedily by removing the infamous gang of Revenue officials and detectives who have worried and oppressed our people, than by any other single act TRUSTEES' CONVENTION. A Convention of the Trustees of free schools for Anderson County met at Ander? son C. H., September 8th, 1877, according to a call from the County School Commis? sioner. The meeting was called to order by Maj. John B. Moore, who, as chairman of the last Trustees' Convention, briefly an? nounced the objects and importance of such associations, and stated that he only occu? pied the chair at the request of the School Commissioner; and in conclusion made some useful suggestions to the Trustees, thanked the Convention for the honor con? ferred as the former chairman, and as he was not entitled to membership in the Con? vention vacated the chair. On motion, Dr. J. Wilson was called to the chair to complete the organization. Col. W. S. Pickens was then unanimously chosen as permanent chairman, and Geo. M. Mc David Secretary. Col. Pickens, in his usual pleasant style, made some brief remarks, and announced the Convention ready for business. Roll of Trustees called from townships in the order of school districts. The following members were present: Fork, N. O. Farmer; Pendleton, W. D. Garrison; Garvin, W. C. Watkins; Brushy Creek, W. S. Pickens, J. D. Sitton; Rock Mills, no representation ; Centreville, K. Breazeale, R. M. Burriss; Hopewell, L. D. Harris; Williamston, no representation; Savannah,S.Cunningham; Varennes, no representation ; Broad a way, D. N. Major; Belton, Dr. J. Wilson; Dark Corner, no representation; Hall, J. S. Beaty; Martin, J. A. Drake, George M. McDavid; Honea Path, no representation; Anderson, E. F. Murrah. The question of old claims was discussed, and the following resolution adopted as the sense of the Convention: Resolved, That all claims made* prior to the year 1873, signed by the Trustees and not approved by the School Commissioner in office at the time are not legal, and should not be paid out of the funds arising from the poll tax of the present year. On motion, an executive committee of seven was appointed to draw up and sub? mit a systematic plan at the next meeting of the Covention for the guidance of Trus? tees in their future operations. The follow? ing compose the committee: K. Breazeale, J. N. Carwile, Dr. J. Wilson, R. W. Todd, N. O. Farmer, W. S. Pickens, G. M. McDa? vid. The said committee will hold a meet? ing at Anderson C. H. on Tuesday, 18th instant, at 11 o'clock. On motion, the Anderson papers were requested to publish these proceedings. Ad? journed to meet Saturday after Saleday in December next. W. S.

Editor Anderson Intelligencer: As you told us the good wishes of the An? derson folks were with the Pendleton Base Ball Club on our visit to Greenville, I sup? pose it will please them to know some of the particulars of our trip. We left Pendleton on the band wagon Thursday morning. Lunched and waited on a rain storm about two and a half hours at Easly Station. Soon after crossing the bridge over Saluda, we were greeted with cheers by a squad of mounted gentlemen of the Resolute Club, beaded by their Presi? dent, 0. P. Jackson, Esq. Our President was invited to occupy a seat in his buggy, and with an escort in front and rear, we proceeded to the city. On our way we were saluted by the waving of handker? chiefs and smiles of fair ladies, some of whom we had the pleasure of meeting later on. On arrival at the Mansion House, our escort spurred ahead, formed* a line facing towards the hotel, and gave three cheers for the Pen? dleton Base Ball Club. We were allotted to different members of the Resolutes, who at once entered upon the task of making our visit an agreeable one. That night they gave us a most delightful and elegant entertainment at the mansion of Mrs. G., who received us most charming? ly, and soon made us forget there ever was such a place as Pendleton. The uniforms of the Resolutes (dark blue, trimmed with white) and of the Pendletonians, (the his torical red shirt,) combined with the beauty of Greenville's fair ladies, formed a picture not often seen. All we regretted was that there were none of our ladies to help form it. The dance was kept up until after mid? night. On meeting next morning, we received an invitation from President Go wer, of the Street Railway Company, to use bis cars in seeing the city, an invitation at once ac? cepted, Mr. Gower accompanying us part of the time. , At 3 p. m. we met on the beautiful grounds where we were to play the match, and soon after its commencement we were further complimented by the arrival of the Greenville Cornet Band, which discoursed sweet music until the rain put an end to it as well as the game, with a score of six to fourteen in favor of the Resolutes at the end of the fifth inning. Next to being the vic? tors, it was our greatest pleasure to be vac; quished by such.a courteous set^f gentle? men as the Resolutes. Saturday morning we were again on our way home. After an interchange of cheers for each club, and with a parting salute of "he's a jolly, good fellow," to- President Jackson, we bid good-bye to Greenville. Our trip will long be remembered with pleasure by the Club, and our Greenville friends would have felt complimented to have heard us, while on our way home, quarreling among ourselves as to which of us had been best entertained. With many wishes for the prosperity of the Resolutes, their courteous President, and the "Moun? tain City" in general, we hope next season to further cultivate their agreeable ac? quaintance. A PENDLETONIAN. REIL ESTATE NOTICE ? -o WE, the undersigned, are endeavoring to influence in this direction an im? migration of a desirable character, with a view to the improvement of this section of country, and the consequent advantage of its inhabitants.

The success of our endeavors de? pends much upon our having in charge such an amount and variety of Real Estate as will warrant our inviting attention there? to. Those, therefore, who have such to dis? pose of, would greatly stimulate our efforts, and probably advance their own interests, by communicating with R. W. Simpson, on his plantation, James L. Orr, at Anderson C. H., or C. J. Hascall, Pendleton Village. SIMPSON, ORR & CO. Sept 6, 1877_8_lm Dissolution of Partnership.
