Mr. A. P. Hubbard, who has been quite sick for several weeks past, was well enough to be in town for a short time on last Mon? day. We regret to learn that he is not quite so well to-day, bnt hope be will be entirely over his sickness soon. The Democratic Club of Hall Township Will meet a: the Carswell Institute on next Saturday, the first of June, at two o'clock p. m. A lull attendance of the members of .the Club is earnestly desired, as there will be business of importance before the meet? ing. The Abbeville Press and Banner says: "Maj. B. F. Whitner, of Anderson, at pres? ent declines to become a candidate for Sen , ator of Anderson Connty. We know of no man in Anderson who would make a better Senator than the Major. We should like to ? see bun elected. We were pleased this week to meet Rev. 7 0. W. Gardner, a student of tbe Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, who is spend? ing his vacation with the churches of tbe Saluda Baptist Association. He will preach in the Baptist church at Pendleton on next Sabbath morning. ? We are requested to announce that there -will be a meeting of Savannah Democratic Club at Davis* mill on the second Saturday in June, at 2 o'clock p. m. CoL E. M. Sucker and others will address the club -upon that occasion. A full meeting of the . citizens is requested. There will be a meeting of tbe citizens of Hall Township at the Carswell Institute on the second Saturday in June at two o'clock p, m., Tor tbe purpose of forming a Division of the Sons of Temperance. Speakers have been invited, and the ladies and gentlemen of the community are requested to be present. At the railroad meeting at Sberard's Store on last Saturday, CoL E. M. Bucker deliv? ered an address, after which it was resolved to petition the County Commissioners to submit to the people of tbe Corner township the question of subscribing $25,000 to tbe capital stock of the 8avannah Valley Rail' rood Company. The Greenville News notes the fact that several patches of barley in that county headed out finely, and were cut for green food for stock, since which they have put out a second growth, not of barley, but of oats. We have noticed the same thing to a very marked extent in patches upon the lot of Hon. J. S. Murray, in this town. Can any of our farmers explain it? The Walhalla Courier says: John B. Sit? ten, Esq., of Pendleton, is in town, and is ? stopping at his son-in-law's, Maj. S. P. Dendy's. Mr. Sitton is one of the most honored and respected citizens of Andersen County, and has been a resident of Old Pendleton as far back as our memory run? neth. He is spoken of as being a candidate for the Legislature from that County at the next election. No better man could be se? lected. We learn that the Telephone is being successfully tested in Anderson. One has been put up connecting tbe Methodist Church with the residence of Dr. W. T. Holland, a distance of about one hundred yards, and Dr. Holland, who lias been con? fined to his bed for months, is able to bear tbe whole of (he church services, including the music. The arrangement is said to be a complete success, and was erected by Rev. H. F. Cbrietzberg. Mr. S. H. Prevost has had the patch of oats on the Shallow Ford road, near his house, threshed out by Mr. D. M. Hum? phreys* thresher, and has received a very handsome yield. He had one and? one Iburth acres in the patch, wbicb- measured obt one hundred and twenty-five bushels and one pevk, or one hundred bushels per acre. Thi3 is a very fine yield, and will probably not be equaled by any other per? son in Anderson County or even in this State. We have seen an almond grown upon a tree in Mr. J. N. Willingham's yard at Hel? ton, in this County. The tree is only three yean old, and is now ten or twelve feet high, and has quantities of green almonds on it. There are several other trees in this County which are also bearing abundautly, and we wonder that more of our farmers do not have them, as Mr. Willingbam se? cured his by plauting a common almond. We hope others may follow his example, and that soon we may have an abundance j of these nuts grown in our midst. j DEATHS. We are pained to announce that Rev. Nathaniel Gaines, of this County, died of j bilious fever at his home near Honea Path on Friday morning, 24th iust. He was born in Abbeville County on the 24th Feb? ruary, 1798, and was in his 81st year. In early manhood he entered the ministry of the Baptist denomination, and remained through his long life a consistent, able and correct expounder of Christianity. Always independent in his mode of thinking, he used his office for the good of his race. As, a citizen, his intercourse with men was well nigh blameless. He was frugal and ener? getic in business matters, and acquired a moderate possession of property, which he retained and increased in his old age. His rule was to "owe no man anything" but good will. He reared a large family, which has contributed strong members to the State. The recent reforms in the State und County contributed much to the solid ^oy of this aged son of Carolina. It may truthfully be said in reference to him, "Mark the perfect man, and bohold the up? right, for the end of that man is peace." The funeral services were performed at Shady Grove Church, in this County, by Rev. W. P. Martin, in the presence of a large and sorrowing congregation, after which his remains were placed to rest in the adjoining church-yard. Mr. James Armstrong died on the 23rd inst. at his residence near Honea Path, at the advanced age of 83 years. He was the last of the numerous sons of a father who was one of the earliest settlers of thc?oun ty. He was uninterruptedly healthy until a short time before his death, and it may be said he died of old age. Though the de? ceased was not, in common acceptation, a man of learning, yet having the strongest common sense, his information was in ac? cord with his years, and it was a treat to hear him narrate the events of the past. No man was ever more temperate in his habits, and by frugality and industry he accumulated a good estate, part of which he most kindly used in rearing some orphan children. To his friends he was ever pro? fusely hospitable, and the poor he never turned away empty. He was a lover of his country, and ever seemed interested in his neighborhood, County and State. Mr. Armstrong, like the class of men reared in his time, possessed traits of character so strongly marked that they cannot be for? gotten, and though dead he will continue to speak to those he has left behind him. We regret to announce the death of Mr. M. L. Kennedy, the senior member of the firm of Kennedy Bros., of this place, which occurred on last Thursday, after an illness of several months, by which he had been confined to his house, and much of the time to his bed. Mr. Kennedy was origi? nally a citizen of Lowndesvilie, in Abbe? ville County, but removed to Anderson six or eight years ago, and has since been en? gaged in the mercantile business. He was an upright, conscientious and retiring man, who had the confidence of the community, and leaves many friends who, with our en? tire community, sympathize with his wife and little children in their sore bereave? ment. At the funeral hour on Friday the stores of the town were closed as a mark of respect, and a large congregatioa repaired to the Presbyterian Church to pay earth's last tribute to the departed. The solemn funeral services were conducted by Rev. D. E. Fricrson. We regret to announce the death of Mrs. Martha Bronston, an aged and respected lady, which occurred at the residence of her son, Mr. Jesse P. McGee, in this County, on last Friday, after a short illness. Mrs. Bronston was born in 1805, and first mar? ried the late Michael McGee, who resided near Belton, in this County, and died many years before the late war. His widow after? wards married Mr. Bronston, and in 1858 removed to Tennessee, where Mr. Bronston died several years ago, and three~weeks be? fore her death Mrs. Bronston returned to this County to spend her remaining days with her son. She was au excellent lady, and was greatly beloved by many of the older people of the County, who were well acquainted with her exemplary life. Her lemains were interred at First Creek on last Saturday, after solemn aud appropriate fune? ral services conducted by Rev. A. Rice in the presence of a large number of sorrowing relatives and friends. Again death has visited our midst and claimed the little child of one year as its victim. On last Sunday the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Welch, of our town, died of the effects of measles, after an illness of about two weeks. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. D. E. Friersou in the Presbyterian Church on last Monday morning, and the remains of the little one were placed to rest in the adjoining church? yard. The bereaved parents have the sym? pathy of our community in their affliction. MILITARY NOTICE. Notice is hereby given thar, there will be a meeting of Savannah Cavalry Company at Davis' Mill on the 2nd Saturday in June next, at 2 o'clock p. m., for the purpose of filling the vacancy occasioned by the elec? tion of Captain Jones to the Lieutenant Colonelcy of the Regiment, and for other important business.

The Chairman announced that a quorum was present, and that the Committee was ready for a permanent or? ganization by the election of a Secretary. W. A. Neal was then elected. A motion was then adopted calling a County Convention of the Democratic party of Anderson County to meet at Anderson Court House on Tuesday, the ICth duy of July, at 11 o'clock a. m. The Executive Committee by a unani? mous vote passed a resolution requesting the County Convention to rescind its ac? tion by which subordinate Clubs were re? quested not to make .nominations of candi? dates. On motion of R. W. Simpson, it was unanimously resolved that the Executive Committee consider a plurality vote the best plan for nominating in the Primary Election. It was then moved and adopted thut a committee of five be appointed by the Chairman to draft rules and regulations to to govern tbe Primary Election, and report to this Committee. The following com? mittee was then appointed: J. L. Orr, G. W. McGee, J. W. Norris, F. E. Harrison and J. A. Drake. On motion of Maj. T. H. Russell, the County Chairman was added to the committee. Monday, the first day of July, at 11 o'clock, was fixed as the next regular meet? ing of the Executive Committee. On motion of J. L. Orr, the Executive Committee recommend to the President of each Club to appoint a committee on regis? tration, if it has not already been done, to revise tbe Club list, see each member on tbe roll and ascertain who wish to withdraw, if any, and to secure additional names. After transacting some other business, and receiving a report of the condition of the party in this County from each member, which was satisfactory and encouraging, the Committee adjourned, having had an important and harmonious meeting. E. B. MURRAY, County Chm'n. W. A. Neal, Secretary. 80UTH CAROLINA T/NIVERSITY. Anderson, S. C, May 28,1878. Mr. Editor: Some parties in this County are endeavoring to get up a feeling of dis? satisfaction in reference to tbe action of the Legislature in regard to the South Carolina University. I will, therefore, state the facts, so that parties may make up an in. ell igen t opinion, and not be misled by misrepresen? tation. I. Article 10, section 9, of the Constitu? tion of the State says: "Tbe General As? sembly shall provide annually for the main? tenance of the South Carolina University." This every member of the General Assembly took a solemn oath to do, when he was sworn into oQice. 2. Section 14 of "An act to provide for the organization of the State University," approved March 22d, 1878, provides "that the Board of Trustees be, and they are here? by, authorized and required, whenever they ?hall receive express authority from the General Assembly to do so, as may be prac? ticable, to organize each of the said branches of the University, by establishing such schools in erxh of them, and prescribing such course and mode of instruction therein as they may see fit," <fcc, etc. No such authority lias been granted, nor will there be until the State is able to afford it. 3. As to tbe organization increasing tho taxes, I will only refer to section 4 of the appropriation bill: "The sum of two thou? sand one hundred dollars be, and the same is hereby, appropriated for the South Caro? lina University, namely: 1. For the pay? ment of insurance on the University build? ings, one thousand dollars, to be paid on the application of the Board of Trustees, upon tbe warrant of the Comptroller Gen? eral. 2. For the salary of the Librarian of the South Carolina University, five hun? dred dollars. 3. For repairs on University building, six hundred dollars." Hence, you see the wonderful outlay. The build? ings cost many thousand dollars, and com? mon sense requires that they should be repaired and kept insured. The library is one of tbe motit valuable in the South, und must Le protected. 4. There was one other important reason for tbe passage of this Act. The Claflin College, at Orangeburg, was founded Bince the war for colored students by Northern people, and by tbe sale of land-scrip, given by Congress to the different States for edu? cational purposes. By the Act of Congress granting this land-scrip, the State is made responsible for the interest on this fund, and has to pay it annually. This college Lad been the hot-bed of Radicalism in for? mer, times, and it was necessary that it should be put in better hands. So by this Act it was put under the control of our own people, and property of tho value of twenty thousand dollars was acquired by the State without one cent's increused lia? bility, for the interest on tbe land-scrip had to be paid whether we controlled it or not. These are the facta of the case. The University was not opened, nor did the bill seek to open it, but simply to reor? ganize it. The amount of taxes spent on it is the pitiful sum of twenty-one hundred dollars, and this all goes for insurance, re? pairs of the library roof, which was leaking badly, and damaging the books, and the salary of a librarian to preserve these valu? able works. I simply moke this statement that a proper understanding may be had, and misstatemcnts corrected. Respectfully, JAS. L. ORR. TEACHERS' COUNTY CONVENTION. Suallow Fold, S. C. May 27th, 1878. Mr. Editor: Please allow me space to moke a few suggestions in reference to our free common schools, und to the teachers of Anderson County und to ull interested, in advocacy of a "Teuchers County Conven? tion." We have now a school law in South Carolina which cannot be surpassed for its wisdom und efficiency in any of the South? ern and Western States. The money ap? propriated, if properly expended, will run the free common schools ut least half of the scholustic year. For illustration, we take Fork township. The uverage attend? ance of pupils in this township is not more than 150. The apportionment of the school fund, including poll tux, is about $800. This gives $5.331 per capita, which is suffi? cient to run the free common schools five months very nearly, according to the per diem system. A like estimate may be made of the other townships, or school districts, in the County. Now, Mr. Editor, in the face of these flattering facts, with a good school law us a surety, is it not very impor? tant that we should be organized? That wc, the teachers of these free common schools should form associations that will awaken an interest favorable to education, and show to each other the existing defects and desirable improvement in the govern? ment and instruction of our schools, the result of which will be most conducive to the welfare of the scbools. I assume the position that organization is essentially necessary to the success of any cause per? taining to the interest and welfare of our country. Does not observation and expe? rience teach us this? Docs not the past political history of South Carolina bring this fact vividly to memory? Wc have religious, political and agricultural conven? tions in Anderson County, and we sec their beneficent effect and influence. Why not have educational? Shall we, as teachers, having a most important mission to accom? plish, (the training of youthful minds,) remain in our lethargy, allowing one iota of our interest, success and prosperity to lan? guish and die? Will Anderson County, the banner County of the old "Palmetto State," be so far behind in this most im? portant movement in the cause of educa? tion? We are informed that Spartanburg County bos hod an annual Teachers' Con? vention for eight years, and would not give them up for any consideration. Your cor? respondent has seen the influence and effects of these conventions in Arkansas, and can testify as to the results being most bencfi cial. Then, why not have a Teacher's Con? vention in Anderson County? There can be no reason why we should not. The great good to be derived from it, and the many advantages connected with it, are an abundant compensation for the tirue and trouble spent in it. We can meet in convention at Anderson Court House at an early day, soliciting tho attendance of all teachers, male and female, for the purpose of organization. We can remain together two or three days, and the benefits will be invaluable. We can ex? change opinions as to tho best methods of teaching, the uniform series of text books that we should select from the large num? ber with which our country is flooded, the discipline about which, after the dawn of a new era of things, there is so much trouble, and the thousand other questions pertain? ing to the work of the teacher, which would do much good in each community. This would doubtless bring about a thorough and independent county school system, without violating any part or parcel of the school law, cret.te a social and pleasant in? tercourse betwem teachers, and build up our schools on a sure and permanent basis, with more genuine morality, better disci? pline, strict by-laws, rules and regulations. We can have a prominent voice in the choice of a School Commissioner, and our selection would most certainly meet with respect and consideration, as we are the persons most deeply interested, and with whom he is intimately associated. These suggestions, and others not mentioned, would be subject to the consideration of the Convention. This communication is written through the urgent solicitations of several teachers, and an earnest desire on my part to see a Teachers' Convention organized in Ander? son County. We would be glad if Prof. W. J. Ligon and others would give their views on this subject. Respectfully, w. t. Mcelroy. Liv ?r is ting. The Liver is the imperial orgau of the whole human system, as it controls the life, health and happiness of man. When it is disturbed in its proper action, all kinds of ailments are the natural result. The diges? tion of food, the movements of the heart and blood, the act on of the brain and nerv? ous system, are all immediately connected with the workings of the Liver. It has been successfully proved that Green's August Flower is unequalled in curing all persons afflicted with Dyspepsia or Liver Complaint, and all the numerous symptoms that result from an unhealthy condition of the Liver and Stomach.
