Kiata (Superintendent of Education i HUGH 8. THOMPSON, of Richland. Adjutant and Initpcctur General i E. W. MOISE, ol' Sumter. ??Tar Ccsgre*?-Tldn! District t 1). WYATT AIKEN, of Abbeville. Senator M. C. Butler, Colonel Aiken, Speaker Sheppard, Judge Bacon, Capt. Dawson, of the New? and Courier, and Col. Cothran aro tho speakers for next Saturday. Every man, woman and child in the County Bhould bo certain, if pos sible, to attend thie meeting. Tho ora tions will bo eloquent and entertaining. Wo should on this day show how old Anderson appreciates tho Democracy and its triumph. Darlington County had five thousand persons present at her Hampton meeting. Anderson must do as well, or lose tho nome of the banner County. Ten thousand persons ought to be hero next Saturdi.y. Tho meeting nt KingBtree, in Willams burg County, on last Monday was a large and enthusiastic one, considering tho proportion of tho population to other counties. There were some two thous and persons present, one-fourth of whom were colored. Tho stand was magnifi cently decorated, and. tho greatest inter est was manifested by tho pooplo of this county. Speeches were mado by Gov. Hampton, Hon. John 8. Richardson and E. B. Murray, Esq., after which Solicitor Hirsch, who has heretofore been a Re publican, was introduced, and announced his determination to support Gov. Hamp ton and tho cntiro Democratic ticket. Taken all together it seems to us that the prospects for Swails and the other Radi cals is a blue ono in this county. The motto of tho day was "Williamsburg must bo redeemed," and wo believe the task will be performed. Some of the Massachusetts papers dc not like what tho INTJKL??EKCSR sait! about Gov. Rice refusing to surrender Kimpton under Gov. Hampton's requisi tion. Wo aro not particular about whether they aro pleased or not, inas much as wo did not express our views on that subject for the purpose of securing tho commendation of a set of journals whose highest ambition is to villify one section of tho union for the purposo of keeping in power u party whose only lifo consists in hate, and whose only food in public plunder. Iii fact., if ?ho Radical papers of Massachusetts had agreed with us wa would have been convinced our views were wrong, for that portion of the press hos not boen known to be right on public matters in tho last fifteen years. Ry tho way, however, ii strikes ns that the people of Massachusetts do not seem to think tho INTELLIGENCER'S views were so unreasonable, after all, for even tho Republicans hare thrown aside both Gov. Rico and Mr. Attorney General Train, and nominated other men to take their places, thus showing that if these officials and their newspaper allies were willing to let the State become nn asylum -for political rogues, that tho pcopla of iii ut Silvio imvo ???i? objections to SUCu a policy. They realizo that their State has been scandalized and disgraced by tho course of Gov. Rice, and have shown it determination to retrieve their integrity as a State by uttorly dL^arding him and tho Attorney General who assisted in perpetrating this outrage upon law. While tho people even of Massachusetts thus condemn theso men, we can afford to look with complacency upon the dis comfiture manifested by their partisan press. A COMPLIMENT. Tito following letter from a gentleman in New York shows that the Radical pa pers of that Suite are no better Caa their Southern allies npon questions in volving truth, and as we consider It a compliment to hayo the organs of ? party ' whose wholo record, ia ono of usurpation and corruption disagree with and berate tho INTELLIGENCES, we cannot forego republishing the letter, without giving the name of the writer : RANDOLPH. NEW YORK; Sept 28. . Editor of Anderson InltlHgencer--Sui : Will you be so kind as to send me a copy of your paper, for which I will subscribe as soon as I know what the lenna are. Theso RnnnhHr-Jtr.a HA BO hard olmnt tho Eaper, its contents, Sic., that I want it ero at hand. Yours truly, Wo most say that it strikes os that our Republican contemporaries ? the North have to go a long way from home to find a subject to write upon when they discosa the INTELLIGENCER. If. they would devote their attention to the rings and rascalities of the Republican party in Washington and in some of the North ern States, they would havo a more pro fitable thorne. The fact is, however, they aro compelled to overlook what ia going on around thew, and appear to find some mighty subject for discussion in picking up a Southern country paper and con torting and transforming its sentiments so as to give them a plausible plea for opening a tirado of villainous abase against the South. With that ignoble and mean spirit which characterizes all papers which seek to array one section of oar common country against another, thew papers make false and malicious statements about the Southern press, and. have not even manhood and honor iv send copies of tho paper in which they make theso infamous statements to the mthern papers they so na fairly attack, fier tho ele^etlons in. Vermont and no. these aeclional ag! ta to ra had bet. beide. If they do not, (hero is a g probability that there will bo noth f Ropublicrtn?aM? loft to amuse UE DEMOCRATIC MEETING ON NEXT SATURDAY. Arrangements aro now being perfected for tho gathering of tho Democratic hosts at Anderson Court House on next Sat urday. A number of distinguished speakers from abroad; ?hgnged in the State canvass, wii! be present and ad dress the assemblage on thc h re issues of tho day. This meeting may not bc necessary for tho success of the Demo cratic party iu this County at tho ensu ing election, bat it, in connection with those held and being held in every Coun ty in tho State, is absolutely necessary to carry tho State. The enthu lasm and de termination of tho people of the upper and middle counties of the State in 1876 gave to the whole State fitch assurances of success that every heart was nerved for the contest, and a decided victory lite result. So long as the same enthusiasm and determination animate tho peoplo success is inpv.table. If, with thc whole State govo;nment against UH, we defeated the Radicals nu thoroughly, certainly, with that government with UH, we can defeat the demoralized IIOHIS of our oppo nents. The only danger that we seo to tho Democratic party of the State in tho future arises from a conviction of over confidence. In 1870 every man felt hi? duty to the State, and mado every ?aeri fico necessary to discharge that duty, and thereby secured an honest and econom ical government, by which he luis been most amply repaid for every sacrifico he made. So long as thc spirit "f 1870 en thusc tho people, so long will we ha' e good government. When tho gr .-at masHcs of the people from ovcr-conftdcnco or any other cauHO become indifferent about tho administration of tho govern ment, then is defeat and maladmistratiou only a question of time. Tho Democrats of Anderson are called upon to give an other day to tho party and State, and to i?ako tho same cfibrt to retain and per p?trate good government that they made to defeat tho horde of thieves who had usurped the offices and powers of the State. The mimo determination that characterized the canvass two years ago should now be manifested, and next Sat urday become noted as the day upon which tho mosses have reiterated their resolve that South Carolinians Bhall rule South Carolinn. Let every Democrat in the County feel that the success of the meeting depends upon him, and theu the assomblcd thousands will unmistakably declare ''int what has been achieved in tho past shall not he lost in the future by indifference or inactivity. Able and dis tinguished speakers, among whom will be Gen. M. C. Butler and the Hon. D. W. Aiken, will be present, and let the Democracy of Anderson give them such i reception ns tho occasion merits. Tho business men of Anderdon have de termined to cluse their doors on that day, and so let all business in the County be suspended for one day, and that day given to the Slate, and the County will save thousands of dollars in the one item of taxes, besides securing good and hon est government. THE COUNTY FAIR. Tho Elovonth Annual Fair of the Farmers' and Mechanic** Association of Anderdon County will be heid at Ander son Court House on Wednesday, Thurs day and Friday, the 23rd, 24th and 26th of October. During previous years these Fairs were decided successes, and they have contributed greatly to the advance ment of the agricuiturai aud mechanical interests of tho County. They have shown what our soil under proper im provement and cultivation can bo made to produce, and it would be difficult to estimate their advantages to the County. It is to the interest of all the industrial purauita of tho County that theso Fairs should bo successful, and that their suc cess should bo so decided as to insure thoir permanency. It is only necessary for those who labored and toiled during the past year to exhibit what they havo ac complished to mako the coming exhibi tion superior to any which havo preceded it. We hopo that the different occupa tions and industries of the County will be fully represented, and that all will feel au interest in this exhibition, and by thoir own exertions make tho Anderson County Fair that success to which tho industries of the people entitle it. THE SOUTH CAROLINA RAILROAD. The management of the South Caro lina Railroad passed into tho hands of the Receiver, Mr. John H. Fisher, ap pointed by Judge Bond, on last Monday. As a number of our readers aro inter ested in this road, we make tho following extract from an editorial in the News and Courier as to its futuro prospecto and management : The South Carolina Railroad, however, is not dead, or Bleeping. Mr. Fisher, in some respects, will be more froe than the President and Directors were. Upon him there will not press a mass of com plex and conflicting liabilities, and as bo is familiar with railroad management, in every branch, there is no reason to doubt that ho will make go?d uso of his advan tages. The successful working of tho South Carolina Railmnd I??VC!".'" rrork ing in tho interest of Charleston, Tho two, the City and the Road, canne? be divorced, without mortal hurt tn both. One ls dependent on tho other. Mr. Fhhor appreciates this fact, and, as he was appointed by a Judge with whom ho is in nowise connected, upon tho nomi nation of the counsel representing the Road, the Syndicate and other defendant interetfa at Baltimore, he will take a Sride in retaining everything in tho con uctof the Road thetis broad and liberal and suited to the times, pushing tho pro gressive features of the policy of the retir ing administration to a point which Mr. Magrath and his associates unfortunately could not reach. We are assured that Mr. Fisher contemplates nothing extreme or revolutionary. He will do no more, and no less, than is requisite to bring the South Carolina Railroad to the first rank among Southern Roads, and to make it a valuable and paying property to all interested. - A Washington dispatch ataU? that tho Government has received two prop ositions from Governor Wade Hampton to collect whatever tax tho United States may claim should bo paid by South Car olina and turn it ovor to the General Government This curious offer aroso ia tho course of the movement of tho com missioner of internal reveuue against il? licit distillers in South Carolina. These gave Governor Hampton m^uh annoy ance, and finally ho sent w.?rd that, for t?A nrtrrwuwi nf ?cnlAlng tji' SUCh *?OUb I. ? "i i those then priding, bc would agree, if the Govyri?icnt was willing, to hold himself responsible for whatever sum it might decide should bb paid by South Carolina on account of internal revenue and collect it and pay H over. HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE. Tho Trw Story of ?lio "Hullet-Sawn Oak of th? llloody Anglo." Tho Abbeville l*rcs* and Banner, in noticing (len. McGowan's report of the Wilderness and Spottsylvania Court bouse, says : Of ali the fierce struggle of the war, fruitful in glory and fearful ir. bloodshed, those battles are iihsurpanscd. "The Bloody Angle" then described by lines of death-dealing lire stamin out a unique picture in the gallery of war. Weare informed that thc stump of j the tr??: cut down hy myriads of inimkct halls, referred to by fi?..-*.. McGowan, has been uprooted, removed to Washington, and is now on exhibition ibero nt thc war department. It was displayed at the Centennial Exhibition at Philadelphia as a remarkable evidence of bravery and endurance of soldiers in battle. It cer tainly affords tho highest evidence poa? Hibl't uf the intensity and durntion of a musketry fire, and of the devotion of the soldiers who could stand such a fire. Hut it mus*, not bc forgotton that it was not tho Federals, bul the Confederate soldiers who received that lire. The tree stood within "the Bloody Angle," a few Mops bi tho r*ir of the Confederate trenches, and every bull which struck it was dis charged from a Federal rifle, and pan ned over tho "boys in gray" and ?truck the tree in their rear. Col. A. I'. Butler, now the Honorable .Senator from Aiken County, then com manded the First South Carolina Regi ment, was very near the tree, witnessed the whole , wess of "Healing," and saw it when it fell upon and injured nome of bin men. The diameter of the tree wits measured by thc sword of (Jen. Wilcox and found to be twenty inches. The in cident is perfectly well authenticated and in certainly one of the mont interesting in thc annal of war. There aro many famous treen, but not one that wc wot of -not the Royal Oak of England, nor thc Charter Oak of America, can vie histor ical interest with tho bullet-sawn oak of tho Bloody Angle. Let the Federal government give it an honored place muong thc spoils of that bloody war; let it bc preserved as proof of tho terrfio power and concentration of thc firing of the Northern soldiers. But it would bo u ntrango reversion of title to glory if tho pierced end jagged stein of that sacred tree should bo regarded as redounding to thc honor of tho Federals, instead of as a signal of thu Confederate bravery unhatched in warlike story. - Thc annual report of gin accidents is beginning to como in. A short time ago a negro boy on Mr. William Cald well's plantatiou had his foot crunhed, and Inst week a small negro boy had his shoulder and arm badly hnrt by being caught in nome part of the gin machin ery on Mr. W. S. Hall's place. Don't fool around a gin ; there's nothing to be made nt it.- Chester Itcporter. - Beaufort Tribune: A letter from New York to one of our citizens, says : "who do you suppose came to beg for nome money yesterday to buy food, and thin was thc seconcd time he had come? Poor devil ' I felt sorry for him in bin abject misery, and gave him through the day. Tho fellow was your ex-Gov. Moses. He pretends that ho wants to re turn to South Carolina, but has not the means to return." _Thc Republican clubs throughout Barnwell have resolved that every col ored man voting the Democratic ticket shall bo ostracised by bin fellows, ex pelled from their churches, suffered to dio without thc attendance of his nearest and dearest relatives, and bo buried by tho hands of Democrats, if buried at all. This would bo dreadful if the negroes were still all Radicals, but there aro now plenty of colored Democrats to care for each other.' - It is with (celling of Badness we chronicle the death of Mrs. C. M. Rey nolds, widow 01 tho late Dr. J. L. Rey nolds, which took place nt tho Mansion Houso in this city yesterday morning at quarter past 3 o'clock. The funeral rites were performed al tho Baptist Church at half past four yesterday afternoon, Rev. Dr. Furmnn preaching the funeral ser mon. Mrs. Reynolds was too well known to our people for us to speak of her es timable qualities os a Christian woman. Only a short time ago she was preceded in the wa'k through tho valley of the shadow of death by her husband, Rev. J. L. Reynolds, D. D. Her remains will be carried to Columbia this morning, and interred iu Elmwood Cemetery where sleep those of husbaud and son.-Green ville News. - Twp sudden deaths occurred in Fairfield County last week, the victims being youths just entering into man hood. John Wiley, a son of Capt. John Wiley, was seized with acuto rheu matism on Saturday, tho 14th instant. Medical attendance was called, and he seemed to .>? improving, and appeared no well on Saturday that his father rode into town. While absent he received the sad news that his son was dead. On the samo day, at 2 o'clock, Andrew Mobley third Bon of E. P. Mobley, Esq., aged about fifteen years, was ai his father's ginhouso cleaning a pistol which he did not know was loaded. The muz zle was turned towards him, and tho weapon was accidentally discharged, the ball entoring the abdomen and passing en tirely through tho body, inflicting inju ries from which he has since died. Extra Liability to Malarial Infection. Persons whoas blood ls thin, digestion weak and livsr sluggish, sro extra-liable to tho attacks of malarial disease. The moat trifling oxposuro may, under such condi tions, infect a system which, if healthy, would resist the miasmal; 2 taint. Th? only way to i teure immunity from malaria i? localities where it is prevalent, is to tone and regulato the system by improving weakened digestion, enriching tho blood, and giving a wholcsomo impetus to biliary secretion. Those results aro accomplished by nothing so effectively as Hosteller's Stomach Hitters, which long experience has proved to ho the most reliable safeguard against fever and aguo and kindled disor ders, as well as th? best rem ?dy for them.
