(Wonder if any of the young ladies of the town or surrounding country will volunteer to make then up for them. They might, with propriety.) We frequently hear of complaints from our citizens about mischievous stock that is allowed to ran at large, in violation of the ?biet provisions of the law. The owners of such stock should remember what Judge . Mackey told the Grand Jury last week. . Rev. Nathaniel Games, of this County, 'was eighty years of age on last Sunday. He is one of the oldest Baptist ministers of the State, and has through a long and la? borious life in the ministry been instrumen? tal in accomplishing mach good for his* :fcl'.ow-men.

We regret to learn that a difficulty oc? curred on last Saturday in the Corn er Town ? ship in which Mr. W. P. Cook, in shooting at one colored woman; with a pistol, struck and killed another who was standing by her. Mr. Cook's family is highly respecta? ble, and the aflair is very greatly regretted. He has fled the country. - CoL D. Wyatt Aiken, the able represen? tative in Congress from this Congressional District, has our thanks for a copy of the "American Almanac" for 1878, which is 'beyond question the finest almanac we have ever seen, and teems with valuable information of a historical, political and stat istical nature. Wo are gratified to learn that tbo Moun? tain' View Democratic Club, in Abbeville Corinty, has elected as its President Mr. A. J. Watt, the former President of the ; Anderson CInb, for the ensuing canvass. Mr. Watt is a staunch Democrat, an excel? lent gentleman, and will make an energetic and able president for the Club. Gen. W. W. Humphreys, with u portion of Ids staff, visited Charleston last week, and participated in the celebration of Wash? ington's birthday by the Washington Light Infantry of that city. The celebration was a grand affair, and the representatives from Anderson were highly pleased. General Samuel McGowan was the orator of the day, and he is said to have ms.de one of his most brilliant efforts. Ash.Wednesday, or the first day of Lent, begins on next Wednesday, the 6th day of March. The services at Grace Church, An . derson, will be during the season as follows: On Ash Wednesdays, at 11 a. m.; other .

We are in receipt of an illustrated descrip . tive catalogue of seeds, bulbs and plants, published by Messrs. Nans & Nenner, Louisville, Ky. It is an attractive cata? logue, containing illustrations of many rare and beautiful plants. This house pays special attention to the cultivation of seeds and plants adapted to the climate of the Southern and Western States. Any of. our readers wishing plants, seeds or bulbs would do well to send ten cents for their catalogue before ordering elsewhere. ? The ladies of the Anderson Baptist Church and congregation will give an Oratorio Concert in March, for the benefit of their '^parsonage fund." Prof. W. .H. Evans will havo the conduct and management of the entertainment, and will spare no pains to make it complete, enjoyable and instruc? tive. The object being one that oommends itself to onr good people generally, and the opportunity for pure, refined enjoyment oc? curring among as bat seldom, we bespeak for Prof. Evans and the ladies a generous patronage. The Anderson Cornet Band is new one of the finest in South Carolina, and by the diligence of its members in practicing, is constantly improving. Our people should most liberally encourage these gentlemen ' in their efforts to excel, aud should assist the organization by the contribution of * money to enable them to pay for hall rent, instruction, &c. The benefit of this band to the Town of Anderson, in the way of music, to say nothing of its political ser? vices, deserves a liberal contribution. Can? not oar ladies get up an entertainment for its benefit? A mounted military company was formed in Hopewell township on last Saturday, to be known as Humpbreys Hopewell Moun? ted Rangers, numbering forty-six The fol? lowing officers were elected: Captain, A.

On last Sabbath evening a praise meeting was held in the Baptist Church in Ander? son, at which the singing class of Prof. W. H. Evans, composed of about sixty scholars, acted as a choir, giving some very magnifi? cent music, interspersed with interesting addresses from the Itevs. D. E. Frierson, J. i S. Murray, Thos. F. Gadsden and W. H. 1 Strickland. The Church was filled with a large and attentive congregation, composed of all the denominations of the town. This style of religions meeting was something new for Anderson, and was very generally enjoyed by those present. TEE MILITIA REVIEW. The 18th of Mach next will be a great day in Anderson. Governor Hampton and Adjutant General Moise will be present for the purpose of reviewing the militia com? panies of the County. There are now twenty organized cavalry companies, and General Humphreys' brigade will be former? ly mustered into service, and no doubt the military display will be the best that has been witnessed in Anderson since the war. The Adjutant-General, we understand, will famish arms to sevsral companies accor ling to their superiority, and hence it is import? ant for every company to perfect its organi? zation and practice drilling as far as possi? ble, in order to compete successfully for State arms. There will also be a battery of artillery and pieces for a brass band for dis tribution. Every company in the County should be present, and every section which intends organizing a militia Sompany should do so at once. SOUTHERN SURGICAL INSTITUTE. The advertisement of this institution, which is rapidly becoming one of the most successful and popular surgical institutions of our country, has no doubt attracted the attention of our readers, and we only refer ?to it for the purpose of commending Dr. J. W. Gnrley, the principal Surgeon, to the confidence and patronage of all persons who may be in need of the line pf treatment to which he. devotes his attention. Dr. Gurley is a gentleman, of studious habits, and has gone into the science of his profession to a degree of thoroughness which has enabled him to accomplish many wonderful cures. He will be in Anderson on riext Monday, and will remain for one week from that time, so that all persons wishing to consult him will have ample opportunity to do so. NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE. The Charleston^News and Courier has re? cently given evidence of the greatest enter? prise and consideration for its readers that has ever been displayed by any Southern newspaper. The entire body of the Bond Commission's report was sent't?^js jour? nal by telegraph, and appeared hv.ts col? umns on the morning after its issue, aud again last week the whole of the Investi? gating Committee's report, which we pub? lish this week, w as telegraphed to this jour? nal, and appeared the morning after it was submitted to the Legislature. For ability, enterprise and public spirit, the Kews and Courier is the peer of any paper in the United States. FORE. A mounted military company was organ? ized at Farmer's Store, Wednesday 20th inst., at 2 o'clock p. m., by requesting Maj, D. L. Cox to act as chairman and W. T. McEhoy as Secretary.

Rev. W. A.' Hodges speaks of lo? cating in this township. We will welcome him as a good man and worthy citizen. Mb. Editoe; The Anderson Palmetto Band are making an effort to get a uniform. Their music on the Public Square every Friday afternoon is very acceptable, and we should encourage them in their efforts. The campaign is approaching, and their valuable services will be needed, as they did good work in the last canvass. Cannot the ladies of the town get op an entertainment of some kind to assist them in getting their uniform ? CITIZEN. THE ANDERSON DEMOCRACY. Neal's Creek Club.

WM. RILEY, c. o. m. Next Town Ahead where they loan you a dollar and chalk it down till to-morrow, for a bottle of | Meukej.l's Hei-atine for the Liver. The enormous expense of importing the ingre? dients of this great liver medicine into this country, is why our Druggists, Simpson, Reid & Co., sell but one sample bottle to the same person for ten cents; but as there are fifty closes in the large size bottles, it is cheap enough after all at two cents per dose, for a medicine that has never been known to fail in the cure .of dyspepsia and all diseases of the liver. It has never failed in the cure of liver complaint when- taken as directed, no matter of how long standing the disease. It cures Chills and Fever, Constipation of | the Bowels, Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint. Sample bottles ten cents; regular size, fifty doses, $1.00. ?'German Syrup." No other medicine in the world was ever 8'ven such a test of its curative qualities as oschkk's German Strut. In three years two million four hundred thousand small bottles of this medicine was distributed free of chvgeby Druggists in this country to those afflicted with Consumption, Asthma, Croup, severe Coughs, Pneumonia and other diseases of the throat and lunj;s, giving the American people undeniable proof that German Syrup will cure them. The result has bren that Druggists in every town and village in the United States are recommend? ing it to their customers. Go to your Drug? gists, Simpson, Reid <fc Co., and ask what they know about it. Sample Bottles 10 cents. Regular size 75 cents. Three doses will relieve any case. Tribute of Respect.

Be it, therefore, Resolved, That in the death of T. E. Boggs we mourn the loss of a faithful brother and an earnest worker in the fraternity. Our heartfelt sympathy is hereby tendered to the afflicted wife, mother, brothers and sis? ters of the deceased, and each of them shall be remembered by us.

Oct 25,1S77 OF ANDERSON COU NTY. -0 IHAVE completed and had copy-righted and lithographed a general act eriptive Map of Anderson County, dated 187 % which is now ottered for sale. The Map shows the County and Town? ship lines, (sixteen townships,') th< ir exact lengths by the chain and direction;: by the compass. The Townships arc ban Isomoi v colored, so as to be easilv distintruishel. The size of Map is 27 x 40 inches, neatly mounted for hanging. The publi: roads, railroads, with even- curve, and proposed railroads; rivers, creeks, churches, cemete? ries, mills, factories, water-powers, dwelling houses, Masonic Lodpes. springs, Granges, camp-grounds, and other historic points of interest appear upon the geographical part of the Map. On the sides a marginal col? umn of historical, statistical, geolopical and meteorological foots are given, whiih relate strictly to this County. These facts have been carefully gathered and prepart d. The historic facts go back to the abanc.onment of this territory by the Cherokee Indians one hundred years ago, when but few white men lived here. The wealth, area, latitude and longitude, kind of water and tempera? ture, mean temperature of the atmosphere, average annual rainfall and population. The different religious denominations, with number of members, and variot s other matters of interest appear on the margin. I have endeavored to present the County to the public in sll of its varied aspects, in a new and attractive way, by combining with the geography the leading tistorical and other interesting facts of the County upon the same sheet, in such a short ana condensed form that it will only require a glance to understand the whole. Contains about 3000 geographical locations. I have been aided in this work by able si rveyors, engineers, draughtsmen, and othir well informed residerils of the County. I have spent about fourteen months in its prepara? tion, and am coi-.fident have presmted to the pnblic the best County Map, to date, in the U. S. For this superiority I an. willing to contest, at a reasonable expense, in any State or U. S. exposition. To the former residents of this County, who now reside in this State, our neighbor? ing States, or in the far West and North? west, I would say that a perusal of I his Map will be to them like a revisit to I heir old homes. The Map can be sent by Express, 50c. added to price. PRICES?To subscribers, $2.50; to the public until first of May, 82.50; after first of May, $3.00. except to subscriber?.
