THE INTELLIGENCER. LOCAL MATTERS. BRIEF MENTION. ^?Cotton- Middling 8} to8i. The goano Irado is B?11 dull, bnt is look? ing ap a little. Mountain cabbages and potatoes have been plentiful this week. William L. Bolt, Esq., is enlarging and otherwise improving his residence. The an^j/nn small grain crops are repor? ted as being in a promising condition. Dr. W. B. Mill wee. of Greenwood, is among the attendants on Court this week. Many of-the Anderson farmers are buy? ing corn of the Oconee and Picken s farmers. The catarrh epidemic which has prostra? ted so many of our citizens recently is abat ing. The price of corn is gradually rising, and it i?- predicted it will be worth $1 before the first of May. The Carolina Collegiate Institute is more . - flourishing this year than it has ever been since its establishment. In consequence of the continued bad weather, the fanners and gardeners are be? hind with their work. Notwithstanding tho bod weather and muddy roads, Conrt has been very well attended by the country people. Mr. J. O. Wilhite, who has been attend? ing the Charleston Medieal College, returned home on Saturday evening lost. Mr.' John Kaufman has been given the contract for . building the new Market v- House. It will cost the town $195. Messrs. J. W. RrSkelton and G. P. Tolly have had water-oaks planted ont in front of their residences on Whitner street. Mr. A. H. Osborne has torn down his ' old gin ana tanyard building, and is build? ing another one larger and more conven? ient. ? j .

Cunningham & Co. advertise in this issue several brands of first-class fertil? izers. Call and examine their fertilizers, terms, &c, before purchasing. ^ - The maiden speech of our young friend, H. G. Scndday, Esq., before the Court in Abbeville last week is highly complimented by our Abbeville contemporaries. |?sTbe weather on last Sunday was cold, cloudy and disagreeable, and was followed at night by a freezing rain, the trees and shrubbery being heavily laden with ice on Monday morning. There have been several hundred shade trees planted in Anderson recently, and if j . they live the streets of the town will be rendered vory beautiful by their foliage and shade in a few years. Among the lawyers from other bars who have been in attendance upon the Circuit Court at this place are Capt. Wm. E. Earle, of Greenville, General 8. McGowan, Col. J. 8. Cothran and Mr. T. P. Cothran, of Ab? beville. Tho following appointments hnvo been mndo for the Y. M. C. A. for Sunday next : ' To conduct tho afternoon meeting, Charles F. Jones; Poor House Committoo. P. K.

Perry, of Virginia, will de? liver a public lecture in the Court Honse on Friday night on "Penmanship, Book-Keep ing," &c Ho proposes to organize a class in this place. The public generally and ladies especially are invited to attend. I We are requestad to announce that there will be preaching at New Prospect Church on Saturday, the first day of March, at 11 o'clock a. m., after which there will be a meeting of the members of that Church to transact important business. There will also be preaching on Sunday, the next day. Some of up-country exchanges are, dis? posed to speak lightly of the small type in which the matter of tho Abbeville Prtss and Banner is set For our part, we rather -admire the enterprise and energy displayed by our neighbor, and think that sdiuo of | those who are so ready to criticise its course might, with benefit to their readers and profit to themselves, follow its exam? ple. We return thanks to Messrs. F. W. Wag cner & Co., wholesalo and retail grocery dealers of Charleston, for a sample of j "Fruits and Flowers" smoking tobacco, the aroma of which is both pleasant and invig? orating. This, like everything else that comes from this reliable firm, is a first class article, r.n J those who indulge in this use of j the weed, will, upon giving it a fair test, doubtless Bgreo with us in the opinion that it is one of the best brands of tobacco made. The members of Seneca Division, Sons of J Temperance, are requested to meet at Prov? idence on Saturday next, 22d inst, at 2 o'clock p. m. Grand Worthy Patriarch G. F. Tolly and Grand Scribe L. P. Smith, ' with perhaps others, will address the meet? ing. It will be public, and the entire com? munity, the ladies especially, are invited to attend, whether they wish to join tho Di? vision or not The speeches wib^jbe both interesting and instructive, and V-rtl repay the timo which may be given in attending the meeting. The McSmith Music Honso is the musical . headquarters of South Carolina. It is a treat to go into the store and sec the great rariety of musical instruments. Tho best and finest pianos made are there, and at undoubtedly low prices. Of organs there .fa an'enc?ew variety?the Mason ? Hamlin Is there in all its beauty and goodness, while tho Peloubet & Pelton is also in many styles just as sweet as ever. Other organs arc also -there?the Weiers, the Cornish, the Bcaty, &c, and thousands of other musical trick's. . But of all the novelties the Organetto & Trnmpotte is the greatest. It is a good thing, and is just tho instrument for evorybody. Give the House a call, and you will never regret it. 1 The many frionds of Mrs. Sallie E. Hun ziicut will regret to learn that she died near Seneca City on the morning of the 14th . instant, after an illness of two weeks. She was the only living daughter of J. E. Bel lottc, Esq. Not quite two years have passed since death took from them a beloved daughter, and now tho only one that re? mained has also been taken. Surely, "the ?ways of Providence ore mysterious and past finding oat." Mrs. Hunnicut had been married a little more than a year, and leaves a devoted husband to mourn her loss. We sympathise deeply with the be _waved parents and husband. They do not mourn, however, as" those without hope, for she lived a Christian life and died a Christian death, having been a consistent rnomber of tho Pendleton Presbyterian Church. Let the thought that their loss is her gain comfort and console her relatives aw*, friends._ ^ Medical science is no longer confined to _ the. educated few, but the masses, remote I frcru physicians, may preserve their healthy or restore it, when .tost, by using?according ^directions--the admirable remedies of the r Medicine Company, 813 The Circuit Court. The February term of the Court of Gen? eral Sessions for Anderson County con? vened on last Monday morning at ten o'clock, Judge T. B. Frazor, of tho Third Circuit, presiding, and Solicitor Cothran representing the State. The Judge appointed Mr. W. G. Watson Foreman of the Grand Jury, and delivered his charge to them in a brief and concise manner, informing them of their duty, and charging them of the importance of care? fully and impartially performing that duty. Tho first case tried on Monday was that of the State vs. Isaac I'urdurvis, indicted for burgl ary, in breaking and entering the house of Mr. H. 0. Herrick. The Judge appointed E. B. Murray, Esq., to defend the prisoner, and after the State's testimony was closed the defence rested solely upon the failure of the State to prove that the prisoner was the party from whom Mr. Herrick recovered a portion of the stolen goods. After argument, the Jury returned a verdict of "Not Guilty." The State vs. Isaac Purdurvis, indictment for burglary, for breaking into Mr. Win. M. Archer's house. H. G. Scudday, Esq., was appointed to defend the prisoner, and made an able and efficient defense, resting his case upon the failure of the 8tato to prove that the door through which the burglar entered was closed on the night tho offense was committed. Not Guilty. The caso of the term, however, has been that of the State vs. Wm. P. Cook, indict? ment for murder. Tho accused was repre? sented by Messrs. McGowan, Moore and Allen, who made a very able and ingenious defense, showing first that Mr. Cook only shot to frighton the woman, Katie Burriss^ and that he shot in such position as not to strike any person, and, next, that the wound supposed to be a pistol shot on tho shoulder of Chloe Burriss, who died, came from a puncture with the spindle of a spin? ning wheel, and that her death was not oc? casioned by a gunshot or pistol wound. The character of the State's principal wit? ness for veracity was completely demol? ished^ Messrs. Allen, Moore and McGowan each made eloquent" and exhaustive argu? ments for the defense, and Solicitor Coth? ran followed in a clear and exhaustive speech for the prosecution. The charge of the Judge was impartial and perfectly fair, after which the jury retired to their room, returning in a short time with a verdict of "not guilty." The case was entered upon Tuesday morning end concluded at about 2 o'clock on Wednesday. The Court of Sessions will probably oc? cupy the greater portion of this week, and the civil ^business will toko the remainder of this and the whole of next week. Judge Fr?ser ^baa made a very excellent impression upon the members of our bar, and the citizens of Anderson generally, by his dignified and courteous bearing, his marked impartiality and the accuracy of his legal judgment. The sessions of the Conrt so far have attracted a large crowd of spectators. The Tempo ran co Entertainment. The entertainment in Temperance Hall on last Friday evening, under tho auspices of Anderson Division, Sons of Temporahce, was indeed a pleasant affair. It was atten? ded by two hundred or.more of our citizens, a great many of whom will long remember it as one of tho most brilliant successes that has ever crowned the efforts of the members of this Division in affording social pleasures for ourpeople. Their efforts are always well directed, and are pushed with energy and perseverance, nothing being loft undone to render whatever they undertake successful, and as a consequence thoir picnics, excur? sions, celebrations, pound-parties, etc., arc 1 always well attended and very pleasant. Among tho principal features of the en? tertainment on Friday evening last, was an election for the most beantiful and most popular young ladies in town, :ho Valen? tine postofhee, auction sale of unexamined packages, combined with a pound party and tho social enjoyments of such on occa? sion. The election was probably the most absorbing feature of the evening, and the determination and energy with which some of tho young men worked for their favor? ites made it qnito exciting. The voting lasted for about an hour and a half, and 1203 ballots wero deposited, 1033 of them being placed in the box for beauty and 170 in the box for popularity. After the count had been made and the result ascertained, it was announced that Miss Loa Fant had been elected for beauty, and Miss Julia Webb for popularity?the former receiving 414 votes and the latter 137. While the voting was going on a splendid supper, made up from tho various articles brought by different persons, was spread, and much enjoyed by all present, after which the auction sale of unexamined packages commenced, which furnished con? siderable amusement for the crowd for some time, many of the articles being pre pared with a view of ercating mirth and laughter at the expense of the purchaser. Apropoi to the election for tho most beau? tiful and most popular young ladies it was announced that an election would bo held for tho ugliest man in town. In this olection each person present was enti? tled to.ono vote only, and at once the work of canvassing for the different candidates commenced. Whon tho count was made, it was announced that the result was in favor of Maj. A. S. Todd, who, in responso to calls from the audience, appeared on tho rostrum and delivered a pertinent and ap? propriate speech. The Evans Cornet Band was present by special invitation,-?nd greatly increased the pleasures of tho occasion by discoursing sweet music. The net proceeds of the evening aggrega? ted $90.30, which will be used by the Divis? ion in increasing the comforts and improv? ing the appearances of the hall. The members of the Division aro much oncouraged by the success of their under? taking, and will doubtless have other on tainmenta of a similar character from timo to timo, as they may deem proper.
