Cotton?Middlings, 8 to 81.
Eggs are in demand at 10 cents per dozen.
Tbe Lowndcsvillc boys play "prartieal
jokes."
The weather continues disagreeable, but
is not very cold.
Anderson is among the few counties in
the State that have no forfeited lands
There is a young man in this County that
has postponed marrying until cotton rises.
The family of Mr. E. G. Evans have
? moved into the house recently occupied by
Mr. Samuel E. Craig.
Anderson, S. C, is now a better cotton
market than Augusta.?JIartwell Sun, Gr
any other inland market.
There have been fewer horses and mules
brought to this market for sale this season
than for several years past.
Persons communicating to our represen?
tatives in the Legislature should address
them at the Virginia House.
The sale of the delinquent lands, adver?
tised to take place on last Monday, has
been postponed to the IGth inst.
Mr. E. P. Earle has recently erected a
handsome and commodious dwelling at bis
Beavcrdam place, in Oconec County.
The Carolina Collegiate Institute and
Willianiston Female College close their fall
sessions respectively on the 6th and 20th
instants.
? Persons entitled to premiums awarded
at-the last County Fair can get them by
calling at tbe office of the Secretary, Mr.
J. L. Tribble.
Mr. E. T. 'Coshine, the operator at this
place, reqnests us to say that the telegraph
office is open every Sunday from 9 to 10 a.
ru. and from 8 to 0 p. m.
The "Revenues" don't relish such jokes
as the Lowndesville boys deal in, and we
venture the opinion that they won't spend
another night in that section again soon.
Mr. James Anderson is full}' prepared to
supply his customers with Christmas goods
of every description. Be sure to give him
a call, as ke is in every respect worthy of
your patronage.
A friend told us the other day that the
announcement of our purpose to secure a
list of all the preachers that went to the
circus kept them away. Well, that ac?
counts for so many vacant seats on Friday.
Salcday passed off quietly, and only a few
pieces of real estate were sold. The busiest
men in town were the horse-swappers, sev?
eral dozen in number, all of whom carried
home different critters from what they
brought.
The firing of a pistol in the hearing of a
"Revenue" by anybody else except himself
is an unpardonable sin, and the perpetrator
of such a foul deed deserves to be hung by
the toDgue in the highest tree in Abbeville
County, and his body left for food of carniv
erous birds.
Remember that the old firm of E. B.
Murray & Co. are anxious to close up their
business, and that all who are indebted to
them, either for advertising or subscription,
would confer a very great favor by calling
at the Istelligexcee office at once and set?
tling up.
"We were pleased to meet our esteemed
friend and neighbor, Mr. D. A. Smith, of
tbe Kannte Courier, in Anderson on last
Friday, who was down on bnsiness. The
Courier has just entered upon its fourteenth
volume, and is one of the best country
papers in the State.
Mr. Wo. E. Tagctt, formerly of this
County, but a citizen of Ellis County, Texas,
since the fall of 1871, died on the 19th ult.,
of pulmonary consumption, in the 50th
year of his age. Mr. Pagctt was well known
in this County, having been born and raised
within its limits, and the news of his death
?will be received by many with sadness.
The Washington (Ga.) Gazette says that
a liitle steamer was carried up tho Savan?
nah river last week, bound for Tugalo river,
?where it will ply between Fort Madison, on
the Air Line Railroad, and a point about
thirty riiles distant down the river. Its
jpourse will comprise about all of the navi?
gable portion of that river. The steamer
was carried up the river on a flat.
The Great London Circus exhibited here
on Friday lost, but was not so extensively
patronized by our people as circuses gener?
ally are. The crowd on the street was quite
as large as usual, though the attendance
upon the performance is said to have been
much smaller, many questioning whether
they paid expenses. The circus proper was
better than the average, while the menag?
erie was somewhat inferior.
The Young Men's Christian Association
of Ncwlcrry have recently opened a read?
ing room, which is well supplied with
wholesome and instructive literature, and
is open every evening from 7 to 10 o'clock.
Cannot Anderson afford as much? There
is nothing that tends to elevate the standard
of morality and intelligence in a communi?
ty more than the distribution of good, sound
and wholesome reading matter. We should
have the reading room, and it should be
free to all.
An altercation occurred between two
young men by the name of McDonald and
Hall on last Monday about three miles
south of this place, which resulted in the
stabbing of Hall in the left shoulder by
McDonald. The wound is a very painful
onej though it is not considered dangerous.
It seems that there have been differences
between the parties for some time past, and
they made tbe accidental meeting on the
public highway the occasion for settling
them. They were alone, and further par?
ticulars arc not known. -
The aggregate number of hales of cotton
received at the depot at this place "luring
the month of November this year were 2504
against 1S71 for the same month last year.
The fact that Anderson is the best cotton
market in the up country is still recogrized
by our people. The total number of bales
brought to Anderson for the past three
months amount to 8092 against ?O0C for the
same period last year. For a considerable
amount of this cotton we arc indebted to
the good farmers of Hart and Elbert Coun?
ties Georgia, into which region the fame
of Anderson has extended.
The Pickens Sentinel informs us that some
of the citizens of that County are talking
about selling out their property and seeking
homes in other sections in order to avoid
paying the heavy railroad tax that will nec?
essarily have to be levied to meet the in?
terest on the bonds of that County, which
the U. S. Supreme Court has recently deci?
ded are a valid obligation, and wisely ad?
vises them not to dt> so, but to remain on
their old homesteads. The people of Pick
ens have fought the matter in the courts for
four or five years, and now that the highest
judicial tribunal in the land has decided the
case against them, the best thing to be done
is to go to work and get rid of the heavy
burden as quick as possible. Tho people of
the whole State no doubt sympathize with
our neighbors in this misfortune, which is
made aggravating by tho fact that it is in a
large measure the fault of bad leaders and
injudicious officers. Moreover, the County
is not benefited one dollar's worth by the
thousands that it is compelled to pay,?
Don't leave your old homes, our neighbors,
but bear your burden as best you can.
The down freight train on the Greenville &
Columbia Railroad ran over and killed a
white man between Bclton and Williamston
on hist Saturday evening. The man was
lying across the track, and was not discov?
ered by tbe engineer in time to stop the
train. His body was terribly mutilated,
his head being crushed, one arm entirely
severed from his body, and his feet and legs
badly mashed and broken. The unfortu?
nate man was supposed to be a tramp
wending his way southward for the winter
months, as be was unknown to the citizens
in the community. It is supposed that he
was intoxicated, and had fallen asleep.
The South is being overrun by tramps,
who arc coming hither from the North for
the winter months. They are generally
able-bodied men, who arc too lazy and
trifling to earn their bread by honest work,
and rely on the liberality of the ever gen.
erous and hospitable farmers of the coun?
try for their food and shelter, for which
tho least compensation is never ollered.
We think it is about time these fellows
were being taught that the South is not an
asylum for such vagabonds and scoundrels.
We hope tbe farmers in this section will
refuse every one of them food and shelter
until it is earned by work. If this plan ol
dealing with them was adopted by the
farmers iroughout the country,
tramping would soon cease, and many
idlers compelled to go to work. We can
conceive of no otM^Bcans by which they
can be gotten rid of. The more th?y are
kindly treated and entertained, tbe more
they arc encouraged to continue tramping,
and the sooner a cheek is put to their course
the better. In case they should refuse to
work in return for foid and lodging, or
other benefits conferred, where it has been
made in advance, call in a little assistance,
if necessary, and administer a practical re?
buke, and one that won't be forgotten.
There are a few ignorant and worthless
negroes' about Anderson who still continue
to agitate the minds of the colored people
about emigrating to Liberia, the most prom?
inent among whom is Elias Tcrrill. At a
meeting held in the Greeley Institute on
Saturday last, of which this worthy was
chairman, and which was attended by about
fifteen town negroes, it was decided to call
another meeting to be held at the same
place on Friday, the 13th inst., "to consider
the great question of Liberia, their Father?
land," to which the colored people of the
whole County arc invited. We sincerely
hope, howevur, that they will pay no atten?
tion whatever to the foolish efforts that are
beim: made by these ignoramuses to make
them dissatisfied with their lot. We advise
them to stay at home, and to give their at?
tention to securing homes for another year,
which is at present the most important
question to them, for their chances to get
to Liberia, even if they desired to, go, is
about es good as their chances to get to the
nnxm. The only thing we sec to be accom?
plished by :hese fellows is the distraction of
the minds of the colored people from their
work, and causing them to neglect the im?
portant matter of making arrangements for
another year. If Terrill really desires to go,
we do not doubt that if he will make the
effort he can securo sufficient funds by do?
nation to defray his expenses, provided he
will promise never to return. We arc ready
to give our portion, and will consider it as
doing our country service.
We would remind our readers of the !
advertisement in our columns of the Mc
Smith Music House. When a Music House ,
can sell such instruments as the Chickering,
the Weber, the Knabe, the Mathusbcck
and Dixie pianos, (the favorites of our
Southern people,) and the famous Mason
& Hamlin organs?the worlds favorite and
choice?we must say they are, and will al?
ways be found, reliable. This house guar?
antees every instrument, and having se?
cured the services of Prof. Anton Berg, of
Cokesbury, they will agree to keep all in?
struments sold by them In perfect tune for
one year. This gives a full and reliable test
of ail their piauos. And should any of our
citizens at any time wish their pianos .
organs tuned or repaired, Prof. Berg vgjB*
serve them and guarantee his work, as he is
thoroughl}' competent. Address the House
at Greenville or Prof. Berg at Cokesbury. f
TOWNVHiLE.
The cotton ginning season is about ended,
though a good deal of the staple remains to
be marketed.It is said that another mer?
cantile establishment will be opened here
shortly. Townville will then have five
stores.Messrs. J. T. & J. R. Moorhead,
of the vicinity of Anderson C. H., will es?
tablish a first class boot and shoe shop in
this town this week.A considerable
number of the Townvillians will avail
themselves of the forthcoming excursion to
Atlanta to get a cheap ride and a glimpse
of the Gate City.Married, by the Rev.
E. L. Sisk, at the residence of the bride's
mother, near this place, on the 1st instant,
Mr. Eli Cleveland and Miss Sallie Bruce,
youngest daughter of the late Rev. C. P.
Bruce.The acreage sown in wheat this
season will be about the same as that of last
year. The short crop of this year appears
not to have discouraged the farmers.:....A
drove of Tennessece mules was in town last
week, but no sales were effected. This sec?
tion is self-stocked, so to speak, in that line.
.We understand that Mr. Samuel Burns,
who, with his family, removed from this
place to Bartow County, Ga., come eight
years ago, contemplates returning at an
early day to this community, where he will
abide permanently. Mr. Burns is a good
citizen and has many relatives and friends
here who will gladly hail his return to the
scenes of his early years.The Sunday
School at Cedar Grove Church, near Shal?
low Ford, gave a celebration on last Satur?
day, which was largely attended, and which
was greatly enjoyed by all present. An
ample dinner was provided by the good
people of that community. Rev. Mr.
Hyde delivered an address of rare beauty
and edification. A live Sunday School has
been in progress there during the vear.

Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., the
proprietor of Dr. Plerce's Family Medicines,
and also of the Invalids' and Tourist.')' Hotel
of that city, lias recently been elected to
Congress by the very fluttering majority of
nearly 3,0o0. He has already served his
constituency as State Senator, and this re?
newed endorsement signifies that his servi?
ces have been highly satisfactory. His ex?
tensive practice in the treatment of Chronic
Discuses will not, we are informed, be neg?
lected or sufi'er in the least when the time
arrives lor him to take his seat in Congress,
it being intrusted to his brother and other
experienced medical gentlemen who have
long been ; s ociated with the Doctor in the
Medical Department of his celebrated
World's Dispensary and Invalids' Hotel.
Besides, as the Forty Sixth Congress does
not convene until December, ls7D, Dr.
Pierre's patitnts will not lose his personal
attention for some months yet.

HARD TIMES.
Me, Editor: A few thoughts on the sub?
ject of "bard times"' may not be out of
place; especially if persons reading them
would "govern themselves accordingly."
Who of us do not feel, to a greater or less
degree, the pressure of the present bard
times? Indeed, so sensibly is this felt that
every one is ready to ask for the cause and
remedy. Various causes, no doubt, are
combined in producing effects so much to
be deplored. Among them we may men?
tion, this year, short crops, from natural
causes, as storms, rust, drought and so on.
In many parts of the County these were sq
great as to reduce the yields of the cereals
and cotton to one-half, or even less. The
decline in the price of our leading staple,
cotton, is another unexpected cause of the
financial pressure. With the adjustment of
European troubles, last spring farmers flat?
tered themselves they would realize a fair
price for their cotton this fall, but their
hopes have been disappointed. Old debts,
contracted under high prices, press also
like a mighty incubus upon many, who
find it hard indeed at present prices for cot?
ton to pay off tbo same. Unreliable labor
comes in also for a share in producing bard
times. It is a sad truth that our labor sys?
tem is exceedingly defective. Among many
lahorers a common qrror prevails that six or
eight months in the year is sufficient time
to make a good living. Industry, care,
economy and a good "holding on" to work
are at a premium.
But there is yet another fruitful cause of
bard times: the yielding to the disposition
common to us all to buy too much. We
magnify our imaginary wants, and either
greatly strain our credit or deplete unnec?
essarily our purses. Fashion urges to ex?
cessive purchases, and its devotees sink in
financial ruin. And it were well if the ruin
was eonfind to tbe devotees; but rarely so,
for they generally drag others with them.
Many men find it exceedingly difficult to
keep their families "in the fashions." They,
like all other men, love their wives and
children, and dislike to sec them behind in
the latest styles, hence they risk theirearthly
all in trying to keep them up. Often while
the family rejoices over the new, fine goods
just purchased, bo whose duty it is to foot
the bill is almost ready to weep over tbe
gloomy prospects for funds to do so. Wives,
daughters and sons, let ull foolish fashions
and extravagancies go. Let the originators
of the many foolish styles and fashions
gather as few followers as possible, and soon
they will come to you for work and bread.
Ladies and gentlemen both, in the full sense
of those terms, can be ladies and gentlemen
without dancing all their time to the costly
music of fashion. Dress excesses arc fol?
lowed often also by table extravagancies.
It is hard for some people to get out of the
way of high, luxuriant living. If, how?
ever, you make it at home, atid don't have
to go in debt for it, you may afford to live
well. Again, we say we buy too much. Let
every one keep clearly within his income,
and bard times will spread his wings and
fly away. To do this he must live upon
what he makes or produces. Every farmer
should make his own meat and bread, wear
largely, if not altogether, clothing made at
home; and, in short, have nothing to buy
except salt and iron, and such other article!
a3 be is unable to make or produce. Let
cotton be tbe surplus crop?the supplement
of the farm, not the main crop. Above all
things, keep out of debt, keep out of debt.
