THE INTELLIGENCE B. LOCAL MATTERS. nil nearly 1900. BRIEF MENTION. Tho crops and gardens arc needing rain. The offices and passage of the Court House are being whitewashed. Court convenes next Monday nt 10 a. m., with Judge Aldrich on the bench. The newly appointed County Treasurer and Auditor took charge of their respective offices on Monday last. Mr. W. H. Frierson, who has been teach? ing in Abbeville County, is on a visit to his relatives in Anderson. Last Monday was the dullest salcday of fbe year. The farmers are too busy to fool away time now in idle gossip. r* Tbc contract for building the barn and stables on the Poor House farm was let on Tuesday to Mr. W. B. Quails at $248. . Judge Reed and wife returned homo on Tuesday. We are gratified to learn that the Judge is somewhat improved in health. Hon. R. F. Simpson and wife, of Pendle ton, spent several days of this week w^th Mrs. Sarah Broylcs, of Anderson. "Wanted?all remnants of loose cotton, for which I will pay a good priee. John E. Peoples. The Auditor is now receiving tax returns for the year 1879, and will continue to re? ceive them without the penalty up to the 20th of July. About forty or fifty little boys, together with five or six gentlemen and as many ladies, enjoyed a "fish-fry" at High Shoals ?on Saturday last. We understand that many of the farmers iu the vicinity of Williamston have had to replant their cotton crop in consequence of injury by the hail Storni about ten days ago. & When a town warden buys a horse and buggy and rides around town every day or two for a month or so before the day of election, people naturally conclude that he is a candidate for re-election. Appointments of the Y. M. C. A. for next Sunday: Poor House Committee, J. N. Brown, B. Frank Manldin; Jail Commit? tee, J. A. Daniels, T. C. Ligon; to conduct the afternoon meeting, John M. Hubb&rd. A white rat was killed in the barn on the plantation of Mr. D. E. Carlisle about ten days ago, the akin of which was stuffed and sent to him last week. We have had the privilege of seeing it, and are prepared to testify to its genuineness. It is the first we ever saw or heard of. The ladies of the Presbyterian Church will famish ice cream for sole at Hampton Orove this (Thursday) afternoon at six o'clock. In addition to the refreshments ?the young people will be provided with a croquet set, which will conduce to render the occasion exceedingly pleasant. A musical treat was enjoyed at the resi? dence of Mr. 8. Bleckley on Friday night lost. Mrs. Finland, Mr. Yon Hasseln, and other accomplished musicians, both vocal and instrumental, contributed to the even? ing's entertainment. The Zither, an instru men t rarely met with in this country, makes delightful music Only two tracts of land are recorded in the Auditor's office as having been trans? ferred during the month of May. They are as follows: J. R. Wilson to John A. Pruitt. Tract of 823 acres in Hopewell township. Consideration, $500. Lou J. McFall to William D. Hall. Tract of 651 acres in Varennes township. Considera? tion, $458.50. V The led are on the "Immortality of the Soul" delivered in the Baptist Church on the evening of the 28th nit., by Rev. L. M. Ayer was a very able one, and was attend? ed by a large and appreciative congregation. The lecture is the first chapter of a work that will probably be published in book form at a future day. The County Treasurer's books for the col? lection of the first installment of the tax for the current year were closed on Satur? day last. The aggregate tax for this County, including the poll tax, amounts to $30,672.89, of which amount $7,326.02 bos been paid. Receipts issued, 587. This is a decidedly better showing than most of the counties can mr.kc. As the summer season advances the usual number of mad dogs are being slaughtered. We have not beard of any in this County so far, but if we were satisfied that their ter? rible malady would not be communicated to other creatures, we would be glad to know that at least nine-tenths of our canine pop? ulation were stricken with it; and then what a thinning out of worthless curs, and hounds, and bulb, and fices would follow. A series of special meetings were com? menced in the Baptist Church at this place on Sunday lost, and will continue through this and next week, and probably through the week following. So far the meetings have only been prayer meetings, and have been held at ? o'clock in the morning and at 6 o'clock in the afternoon, the morning service lasting 45 minutes and the afternoon service one hour. A very deep interestpre vails among the Christians of the whole town, and the services are largely attended. The Pastor expects assistance the latter part of this week, and goad results are anticipa? te 1. The News and Centner's prize story, "As hurst," has attracted very general commen? dation throughout the State, and that pr.per now announces that with the number of, June 12th another story, entitled the "Bloom of the Peach," will be begun in the weekly edition. The News and Courier now reaches all points along the Greenville and Columbia Railroad on the day of its publication, which advantage, taken in connection with its enterprise and ability, will doubtless secure for it very large acces? sions to its subscription list iu this section of the State. The Greenville and Columbia Railroad has changed its schedule, which will here? after throw .he trains into Anderson as fol? lows : Going down in the morning, arrive at twenty-five minutes past seven, leave at thirty-five minutes past seven; going np in the evening, arrive at forty minutes past six and leave at ten minutes of seven. The schedule is arranged so as to come through from Charleston in one day, and is, at ubis season of the year, a very convenient one, being a great improvement on the seme character of schedule run last summer. The Greenville Advertiser has the follow? ing receipt for keeping cool: "Get a copy of the Abbeville Medium, lay down on it, and cover yourself with the Anderson Ihtelli Gesceb. This is a sure remedy, if the cool? ness existing between those two papers can have effect in warding off the beat of old Sol." The coolness in the sense of which the Advertiser speaks exists only in its imag? ination. The Medium and the Intelligen? ces are on the best of terms. We do not always agree on trifling matters, but then we tell each other what we think about the subject, and all is right. The person who should be wrapped in these two papers would, therefore, be more comfortable Utah I if some others afforded the covering, for ! when some papers differ an immense amount of caloric is generated in the way I of anger. It is not a bad idea for papers to keep cool over their diffeiences. We regret to announre the death of Mrs. [ Sallie Breazeale, wile of Mr. 8. A. Brea ' zealc, which occurred at the residence of her husband in the town of Abbeville on Tuesday, the 3rd inst. Mrs. Breazeale was a daughter of the late Rev. William McGee I of this County, and leaves many relatives and friends in our midst who mourn her untimely death. She Was an excellent and amiable lady, who made friends wherever she went. On Wednesday her remains were interred, after appropriate funeral ser? vices, in the family burying ground near the site of the residence of her father in this County. The services were largely at? tended by the relatives and friends of the deceased, who feel the most sincere regret for the death of one so dear to tbem. According to previous announcement, the eleventh anniversary of Anderson Division No. 1, Sons of Temperance, was celebrated by a public meeting in the Court House on Thursday evening last. At the appointed hour the Division filed out of Temperance Hall and marched in procession to the Court House, where they found a large audience I awaiting them. After music by the Pal? metto Band and prayer by Rev. J. E. Car? lisle, the Worthy Patriarch, Mr. Charles C. Langston, introduced in a short and appro? priate speech Mr. H. G. Scudday as the first [-speaker for the occasion. After referring to the reorganization of the Division after the war, when the morals of the whole ! country were more or less corrupt and in? temperance was rife, and to the g.^at suc? cesses that had attended the efforts of the temperance workers, he discussed in an able arid instructive manner the subject of true human greatness. Rev. W. H. Strickland was next introduced. He entertained the audience for nearly an hour in discussing the objections generally entertained by the public to organized opposition to intemper? ance. His speech was a very strong argu? ment for the temperance workers, and was j i interspersed with an appreciable amount of I humor. He held the close attention of the [ eudiencc throughout his entire address, and evidently made a deep impression on their minds. At the close of Mr. Strickland's [ speech, the meeting was closed by benedic? tion by Mr. Carlisle. The Abbeville Medium bus this to say in I reply to our article about the ladies of An? derson and Williamston: )ur neighbor has magnified a molehill tuvO a mountain, and written a great deal about nothing. Our crusade paragraph was not intended as "a slur to the ladies of two refined and intelligent communities." We simply gave circulation to a rumor that reached our ears of the intention of the fair daughters of Anderson to "beard the lion in his den" and subdue the demon of in? temperance at every sacrifice. We did not question their motives or improperly esti? mate their zeal, but we doubted the success of their crusade?only this and nothing more. We gave the item as a matter of | news. We heard it at Belton on our way home from a recent visit to Greenville, and had no notion that "ninety-nine out of a hundred readers" would have read it with vulgar suspicion or take it as at all rcflect I ing upon the ladies of either place named in the paragraph. This is as near an apology as our contem? porary knows how to come, and shovrs that his article was written inconsiderately and without any foundation for what his imag? ination built out of some meaningless joke of some person who was "craming" the editor with important "dots" for his jour? nal. Considering everything, we suppose the ladies ought to forgive him, and we will join them in doing so if he will not omit to come to us as an exchange when he replies to us, and will in future give no further of? fence by repeating such nonsensical state? ments with an air of reality. Honen Path, This place is putting on a new, clean face. 'Painting and whitewashing are engaging the time of several of the clerks and others who are not engaged in farm pursuits, and from what we learn almost every house, out house and store room, is to undergo a dressing ere the good work ceases.Crops are pretty clean, and generally look well. The acreage of cotton is largely in excess of the corn, and more attention it seems is being paid to its culture. Some small grain which has been already cut appears well filled. Mr. D. S. McCullough has harves? ted several acres of extremely fine oats, upon one and one-sixth acres of which he has over thirteen hundred sheaves, and calculates to thresh over one hundred bush? els. Can any other section beat this?. Prof. H. G. Reed has given his pupils holi? day, which they propose enjoying in the way of a fishing party on Thursday, the 5th inst, with others who will join them in making the day pleasant.Quite an amount of sickness in the community, but no contagion, except whooping cough, which, here, only respects those upon whom it has ouced preyed. Tyro. A Tip-Top Picnic. Me. Editor : Having enjoyed the pleas? ure of attending a picnic given by Miss Emma Moore's school last Saturday, May 31st, a day long to be remembered by those present, and it having proved a perfect suc? cess, I ask room in your paper for a few "dots" concerning it. The members of the school, with their comites, assembled at the academy, 1 j miles southeast of this.place, bearing baskets well supplied with pabidn, about 8i a. m. Before 9 o'clock the juvenile band removed to Archer's Creek, a place selected by Miss Moore?and a beautiful place it was. There we were joined by one of the Trustees, and a family from High Shoals, among whom was the teacher fiom the High Shoals vi ciuity. The baskets were placed under a ,,venerable old white oak, and fishing was soon commenced?the small ones fishing in the creek and the large ones on dry land, the latter using the more energy. A group strolled down the stream, lauded on an island, joined in playing "mumblc-pcg," but continued fishing. About 11 a. in. we strolled back to the venerable oak. Between 12 and 1 p. m. the baskets were opened and their luscious con? tents profusely spread, to which all were cordially welcomed. Then came an impor? tant part of the picnic. Immediately after our sumptuous repast, the talented and promising young law stu? dent, Mr. C. E. Wardlaw, was called upon to display his elocutionary powers, to which request he kindly acceded. His large and appreciative audience was highly amused as well os instructed. At the close of his address the lamb-like crowd returned to the Aai. Tho remainder of the afternoon was spent in a social dance, under the music of Mr. Green, for which he has many thanks. At 5 p. in. the picnic ended, and the crowd disj>erscd, exulting at the success of Miss Moore's first picnic. A more pleasant atnl sanny-fiwod jjroup I have never met. Everybody enjoyed it?big, little, old und young. The school murin bos abundant reasons to be encouraged. I have never attended a picnic that was more universally enjoyed. Truly it deserves to be termed "tip-t"p." The raccftn with which the day was crowned, The Joy that lill.-d the nicotine, Slinll hi (u rrvery heart alinuini, While to Mise -Moore we tender greeting. Pmu<. IlroudllVfliy IJivl nl<.ii, Ma. EoiTofc: If you will indulge nie n little While I will give yoar readers a few facts regarding Broadaway Division, Sons of Temperance, o Well known organization in this County. Its place of meeting is well known to the community to be lh a ball near Neal's Creek Church, because the ben ncial results of this organization are well known. This Division, I believe, was organized on the 14th day of October, 1874, with perhaps about thirty-five members, about one=tbird of whom were ladies. They were persons of integrity of purpose, and their firm de? termination and the patriotic loyalty which they bore to the honored cause has insured them a success far beyond their most san? guine expectations. Our community can now with pleasure ascribe to them the plaudit, "Well done." The lovely and ac? complished women have adorned the hui' by their presence and smiles. With these and many other incentives the men could do nothing but show their allegiance to the society. In consequence of this the Divis^ ion stood the stormy campaign of 1876, when many of the societies ceased to work. You will naturally bo lead to ask, What has this organization done extraordinarily ? Your attention is directed to a few facts which are easily perceived, and are not matters of insignificance: Good houses of a substantial class have taken the places of dilapidated ones, fat horses of poor one--, pleasant, felicitous and proud homes of de? graded and unpleasant ones, and, as a gen? tleman recently remarked, "yards formerly filled with litter and plank are now piled up with bales of cotton." Is not this an achievement? The Division has been one of the main auxiliaries in bringing about this reformation of our affairs. The follow? ing conversation recently took place between two prominent gentlemen who were travel? ing through the community in which this society is located. Mr. W. remarked to Mr. P.: "What a great change has taken place in this community since I passed hereabout three years ago. Do you attribute it to Democratic rule?" Mr. P. very sensibly answered: "In part only; that temperance society at Neal's Creek has had something to do with it." On last Saturday night a pound supper was given in the hall, after the exercises of the Division were over, which, though has? tily gotten up, resulted in a complete suc? cess. From an hour to two hours after the sun had disappeared behind the western horizon could be seen the members coming in every direction with their baskets; and Mr. Editor, from the way the carriers leaned sideways and panted, we were assured there was "stuff" in them?and stuff it proved to be. After the table had been prepared on it could be seen delicacies, substantials, nick-nacks and, in tact, everything of which mind could conceive or heart desire. It seemed to me it would almost be a sin to destroy the beauty of it; but when our ef? ficient W. P. extended the invitation to re? plenish the inner man, we, like Adam, could not resist the temptation, but felt constrained to taste. Taste?if you had seen Judge M., the Major and the Captain at the table you would not have called it tasting. We expect shortly to see them on crutches with their feet on their shoe3. But why should an allusion be made to them particularly? We are all as deep in the mud as they are in the mire. Surely, from the amount of good eatables brought, the ladies expected ns to stay there a week. Upon the whole it was one of the most pleasant and best conducted affairs in the way of a hastily gotten up supper it has ever been the good privilege of the writer to enjoy. Oh, that there was one every Saturday night! After all had participated in the social pleasures of the occasion, the ladies piled back into their baskets the nice cakes, &c, which w.ere left from supper, and then the large crowd dispersed, all of whom were glad they belonged to old Broadaway Division._G. C. A. Reed has been appointed agent for the sale of Louis Cook's celebrated buggies. He has just received an elegant assortment, and can suit those who call on him early. _ 2 On Friday evening, the 30th inst,, a party of ladies and gentlemen assembled at the residence of Col. E. M. Rucker for the pur? pose of spending a few hours in social en? joyment. No more suitable place could have been selected than at this genial and hospitable home. Each member of the party met a most hearty and cordial recep? tion at the hands of the Colonel and his good lady. Free access was given to every department of the home that would tend to accelerate and heighten the festivities of the occasion. Who could have done otherwise than spend those hours pleasantly ? The party was composed of the elite of Ander? son and Greenville. By 10 o'clock the guests had all assembled, and on command given by jovial Joe, Jack came to the front, and after a few strokes of that familiar old air, the ladies mysteriously appeared ele? gantly masked. Oh ! how strikingly love? ly ! Now came the difficult problem to de cide?which was t'other. For a moment deathly silence prevailed, then a rush for a partner for the time being. After a short interval of time was spent in walking, talk? ing and courting, the ladies unmasked, and lo and behold! the disappointed, blank countenances, when it was revealed to whom many of the young men" had been paying their attentions. The party, one and all, enjoyed themselves most admirably, judg? ing from appearances. Evenings spent in this manner will be green spots, ever fresh in our memories. Looker On.
