INTELLIGENCER. IrOCAL MATTERS. TtKI kv MENTION. "Health" makes some timely suggestions our town authorities in this issue. atermelons are becoming plentiful, but small. ? A number of aar citizens are in the >imtains, and ethers are getting ready to Mr. and Mrs. John P. Wilson, of Darling are on a visit to relatives in Anderson, iere they will spend several weeks. . le ministers of Anderson made special ? on Sunday morning for rain, and at it 3 o'clock in the afternoon it came. Tq understand quite a number of the low-country people are summering at Wil liamston. The mineral spring is the prin attraction. ie Saluda Baptist Association convenes ith ML Bethel Church in this County on ay, 5th of August, and will remain in ssion three days. Appointments of the Y. M. C. A. for next Sunday: Poor House Committee, John W. Todi and J. Bay Iis Lewis; Jail Committee, G. F. Tolly and J. A. Brock. An unusually large number of low-coun? try people are visiting the up-country this summer. They don't seem to agree with the statement that Charleston is a "summer resort." Persons wanting Cotton Presses will do ; well to call at once on J. M. Sullivan, who has on hand an entirely new Press, the best and cheapest on the market 4 ? - We had a pleasant call from Mr. J. W. Tillinghast, of th? Mobile Begister, on last Monday. ' Mr. TiJIinghasfc is on a visit of j some weeks to relatives and friends in this his native County. The temperance picnic at Carswell Insti? tute on Saturday was quite a success. Three or four hundred people were present, and j stirring speeches were made by Messrs. H. G. Scudday, W. E. Walters, A J. Wattand H. I>. Haddon. ?' In many sections of the County great numbers of forest trees are dying in conse * quence of the terrible drought which has visited, u?. From the town of Anderson the parched foliage of the dead trees can be seen in crery direction. Better than ever. C. A Seed, Agent, now offers his entire stock c f hats and clothing ten per cent, below New York wholesale prices. Object?to close out and make room for new stock. The Fickens Sentinel says that the citizens of that County residing in the townships adjoining this County desire the provisions of the stock law extended to them. They are tired of fencing up hundreds of acres when twenty-five or thirty w?l answer as well. Preparations for the Sunday School In? stitute, which opens in *he Baptist Church this evening at 8i o'clock with a welcome meeting, continue to be made, and from present prospects its sessions will be very interesting. All who on do so should at? tend. . A prominent merchant desires us to ex? press a condemnation of the practice of J stealing watermelons. H e thinks it is worse than stealingahorsc, and wishes the owners of melon patches to enter into an agree? ment to shoot any man, woman or child found guilty of this offense. On last Friday afternoon the blacksmith shop of Mr. A E. Bohannon, some two miles South of this place, was consumed by an accidental fire. Most of the tools and I articles in the shop were saved, and fortu? nately the wind was in a favorable direc? tion which enabled them to save the sur? rounding buildings. - The great question that at present agitates the usually passive people of Edgefleld is the stock law. They have sent a committee of farmers into N6wberry County to take notes and report the results of their obser? vation. ' If that committee are not satisfied with the operation of the law in Xe wherry we respectfully invite them to take a tour through Anderson County. We learn from a gentleman who came up the Greenville & Columbia Railroad on last Friday that the condition of the crops be? tween Honea Path and Frog Level is dis? tressing in the extreme. The drought has been terrible, and the com crop is in many ' places totally destroyed, while the cotton, though it should receive good rains during the rest of the summer, is seriously injured. Dr. D. M. Russell, a citizen of Georgia, but a native of this County, who removed to tho Empire Stata some ten years ago, is on a visit to relatives in this County. We had the pleasure of meeting him on Wednes? day. He will remain here for several weeks. The Doctor expresses himself as very much pleased with the progress made throughout our County, in our agriculture and in our buildings. We would call attention to the advertise? ment of Messrs. Robertson, Taylor & Co., successors to Messrs. Geo. W. Williams & Co., of Charleston. The gentlemen com? posing the new firm are men of high char? acter, with abundant means .and thorough business experience and qualification. They are worthy of unlimited patronage in the various branches of merchandise in which they have engaged, and all orders er trusted to their charge will receive prompt and sat? isfactory attention at their hands. The Board of Examiners of the County schools he!J a session on Saturday for the purpose (J examining teachers. Seventeen applicants, three whites and fourteen col? ored, were examined, four of whom, two whites and two blacks, 'were given certifi? cates, three of which were third grade. Most of the applicants were very ignorant, not being able to answer correctly the sim? plest questions. The beard will continue to require proficiency in all applicants be? fore certificates to teach are given; and in this they are right. . Remember that the town election comes off on the second Monday in August next. Every citizen should make his arrangements to be present and vote, for cumulative vot ig has been abolished, and it is of the ut? termost importance to continue an efficient and satisfactory administration of the town's affairs. We presume the Democratic club ill again make the nominations, and that ' win be elected, but to ensure it all of | cizens must be in town to vote. The dry weather in many portions of An ?n County has become very alarming. Iready the corn crop has been very seri ly damaged, if not almost destroyed, and ; cotton has been deprived of its growth such-an extent that it w?l require the -t favorable conditions for the remaind of the season to make an average yield, e rain or, last Sunday was only partial, ifs effects are .?I ready entirely dissipated some places. The prospect is, however. The heat on Thursday, Friday and Satur? day laut was the mosfroppreaslve ever known In this section. From about 1 o'clock till 6 o'clock of each day the thermometer stood at from 100 to 105 degrees in the shade, and the nights were almost as hot as the days. The effect of the heat on vegetation of every kind was plainly visible, the gardens and crops ?rtistaining greater injury during the three days mentioned than for ten or twelve days immediately preceding. From what we have noticed of the order among the colored people known as the ;<Good Samaritans," we are satisfied that it is a Republican political organization, in? tended to restore, under a new name, the old Union League for the purpose of reviv? ing the Republican party in this State next year. The published constitutions of this society are entirely non-political, but con stitutions do not mean much to those who are seeking after mischief in politics. It a none eable feature of the organization Anderson that its leaders are rampant Rad? icals, and that no Democratic colored man is a member. There are no manifest ob? jects for the existence of the order. It was established by a stranger sent down here from the North, and bears all of the ear? marks of a secret political society. "We take this occasion to urge our colored friends in this County not to organize or sustain a secret political society, for it will certainly result in no good for those who participate in it. Our people are on the alert for just such schemes, and they will not only come to naught, but those who seek to establish them will be remembered and shown that they cannot expect to foment discord between the races, and then receive substantial kindness and assistance from the white people. Sloan Bros., of Greenville, are making specialty of agricultural and garden seeds and propose to offer premiums each season for the best crops from their seed. Their premium on turnips this fall will be $5 in gold. Savannah Valley Kallroa?. We ure requested to announce that thsre will be a meeting of the corporators of the Savannah Valley Railroad at Smith's Cross Roads :ln Magnolia township, in Abbeville County, on Tuesday, the 29th inst., for the purpose of considering important business connected with the road. A full meeting is-desired, and every corporator is requested to be present, either in person or by proxy It is of great consequence that this request be attended to by all of the corporators. Hydrophobia In Catj. The Columbia Register of last Saturday contains the following, which should in duce persons to be careful about having cats about them during this warm weather, which :is calculated to develop the disease spoken of below: Dr. {Sylvester had to kill hb household cat yesterday on account of the animal be? ing affected with hydrophobia. The ladies of the family noticed that it would not eat and appeared to be unwell, and they were petting it and trying to coax it to eat, when it jumped out of their arms and ran into the piauza, where a few minutes afterwards it was discovered foaming at the mouth and having all the symptoms of hydrophobia About two weeks ago it had a small cut or sore on one leg, and was slightly lame for a few days, but it is not known whether this was caused by a bite or whether it had any connection with'its hydrophobia attack. An Old Law. Our young ladies and gentlemen who step so easily into the marriage relation, and have no obstacles interposed by society or law that amount to even so much as trou? ble, may be amused to learn that marrying has not always been such easy matter. We publish below an old bond of a prominent couple who married in Pendleton County, which brings to light an old law of which few persons at this day have ever heard. It is a carious old document, which every man was required to execute and file with the Clerk of the Court before entering into matrimony: ST4.TE 07 SCCTH CAROLINA, pe.vdli7to.v Co?stt. Know all men by these presents, that we, Joab Mauldin and James Wood, are firmly bound unto the Judges of the County Court of Pendleton, in the sum of one hundred pounds, to be paid to them or their succes? sors in office, for the true performance of which we bind ourselves, our heirs, execu? tors, admin is tr?te rs, &c, jointly and sever? ally by these presents, sealed with our seals and dated this 4th day of July, 1796. The condition of the above obh'gation is such that, whereas a marriage is suddenly intonde (1 to be solemnized between the above bound Joab Mauldin and Jane Liddell, both of said County; now, if no lawful cause shall obstruct the same, then this obligation to be void, else to remain in full force. J. Mauldin. James Wood. Death of a Bespected Citizen. Maj. Elijah Alexander, one of the oldest and most highly respected citizens of the upper portion of our State, died at his resi? dence in Pendleton at half past six o'clock on last Saturday evening, after a long and very painful illness. He was bom in Pickans County in 18C9, and was a very successful farmer and mer? chant, accumulating a handsome property, and acquiring an honorable reputation, which gave him a very large circle of warm friends. He represented the County of Pickens, which included also the present County of Oconee, in the State Legislature from 1843 to 1855, having been elected six times in succession. He was a gentleman of very great energy and decision of char? acter, which gave to him a very widespread and strong influence. He was fond of pub? lic life, and maintained his hold upon the public ::avor and confidence until his health failed so as to require him to leave politics and business. In 1856 he entirely lost bis sight, and in 1858 was stricken with paraly? sis, since which time he has been a constant sufferer and confirmed invalid. In 1857 he joined the Prssbyteriaa Church, and has since that time been a member of the Church at Pendleton, whither he removed. His suierings were augmented by intense pain from frequent attacks of neuralgia, which he bore with gieat fortitnde; and, strange to say, through all of his suffering he retained his mind unimpaired until two hours "before his death. He was a good cit? izen and devoted husband and parent, whose affection was fully returned by his only daughter, Mrs. Dr. J. H. Maxwell, who, through his twenty-two years of af? fliction, has been his constant companion and tender comforter. His death was that of the Christian, and though relatives and friends mourn his death, their sorrow is softened by the assurance that death was to him the entrance into rest after long and weary years of darkness and pain. Proceedings of the Town Council. Council Chamber, July 15,1879. The Town Council met this evening at 3 o'clock. Present?G. F. Tolly, Intendant; E. F. Morrah, J. F. Wilson, W. S. Ligon, Wardens. The case against Lawrence Galloway was taken up, and the accused plead guilty. Council imposed a fine of one dollar and costs. The case against Scip Edwards was called. He plead guilty, and was fined one dollar and co.c ts. Mr. Louis Sharpe asked the Council to give him up his note for $7.50, amount due as balance of rent on a stall in the Market, as he would not be able to make farther use of it. For reasons the Council thought suf? ficient, the request was not granted. Napoleon Johnson. Frank Davis, Ben Churchwell and Charley Green were each fined six days' work o.a the streets for emp? tying scavenger barrels on tue square. Grange Meetings. Flat Rook Grange No. 295 will hold its monthly meeting on next Saturday at 2 o'clock p. m., to which the members are respectfully urged to give prompt attention, and Patrons generally are invited to meet with us. Pomona Grange held the regular quarter? ly meeting according to appointment, and was very well attended. A large amount of business was discussed and disposed of, among which was the appointment of two summer meetings of Pomona Grange. One to meet with Brushy Creek and Slabtown Granges at Cedarwreath school house on the 4th Saturday in this month at 10 o'clock a. m., and the other one to meet with Dou? ble Springs and Townvllle Granges at Town vflle on the 3d Saturday in August at 10 a. m. All members and delegates of Pomona Grange are respectfully invited to attend these meetings, participate in the business, and contribute generally to the interest of the occasion. The Executive Committee and Commercial Agent each made official reports, which were favorably received, and each of said ?officers were respectively elec? ted to serve for the ensuing year. Associate Grange No. 1 assembled at il inter's Spring on last Saturday, accord? ing to appointment, and was organized by calling P. R, Brown to the chair. Several interesting essays were read and intelligent? ly discussed, from which the respectable audience of ladies and gentlemen present must have been edified as well as interested. From a generous collation of baskets, a lib? eral and enticing repast was spread in the grove near by, to which all were invited and sumptuously dined. After the most fastidious tastes were fully satisfied, the crowd were recalled by the sound of excel? lent music to the hall, and the reading of essays and discussions continued until the evening shades had grown long and wide, which was considered quite agreeable, and appropriate by all present on account of the extreme heat of the earlier hours of the day. All appeared well pleased with the meeting and its results, and after appoint? ing essayists for the next quarterly meeting adjourned to meet on the second Saturday in October next, at Sandy Springs at 10 o'clock a. m. _ Anderson Market Reports.

Editor : To preserve the health of our town, would it not be well, during this extremely hot weather, for the town author? ities to look after the pig pens, privies and stables, and see that they are kept clean and properly disinfected? Health. Townvllle. Crops in this entire section have been greatly injured by the drought. Recent partial rains have fallen, however, which have revived vegetation somewhat. Vege? table gardens have been almost entirely cut off..Mr. A. J. Graham has the best six acres of cotton in the Smith Chapel neigh? borhood.Maj. D. L. Cox and Mrs. Dr. Broyles produced this year very large crops of wheat and oats?decidedly larger than any others that were grown in the central of the Fork.The public schools are in session again, and the attendance is very full.A protracted meeting at Smith Chapel will be begun Thursday, the 17th inst..The Lutheran Church in the Fork will be dedicated by the Rev. J. P. Smeltzer, D. D., on the second Sunday in August proximo.The traveling threshers owned and operated in this section, have been very successful this season. If every company would furnish us a separate aggregate of the wheat and oats they threshed within the limits of the Fork township, we would make a grand total and published it as an item of public interest.It is the writer's sad duty to record the death of one of his most respected and trusted pupils, James W. Burgess, which occurred at his father's residence at this place on the 13th inst.. af? ter an illness of less than a week of typhoid fever. He was the eldest child and only son of Mr. Joseph A. Burgess, and had nearly attained his majority, being twenty years and eight months of age. It is a very high tribute to his memory to say that he was a favorite with his companions, and that he had the confidence and respect of his seniors in years. The funeral services were conducted by the Rev. B. Holder in the Baptist Church here, of which the de? ceased was a member, after which the re? mains was laid to rest in the grave vard bard by. _ _ D. Trustees and teachers of public schools are requested to meet at Anderson C. H. on Saturday, the 2Gth inst. Business of im? portance pertaining to the educational in? terests of our County will be presented. Rev. H. T. Morton, now teaching a Normal School in Spartanburg, and?Hugh S.Thompson, Superintendent of Education, will address the meeting, and we trust the attendance will be a full one, and that every board of trustees will be represented, so that some uniform plan of running the public schools may be adopted. All teachers who favor the organization of a Teachers' Union are earnestly requested to be present. The addresses will be delivered in the Court House, beginning at 11 o'clock a. ra., to which the public generally are invited. The business meeting will take place before or after the address, as the occasion may suggest. R. W. Toon. Frank Leslie's Sunday Magazine for An gust presents manifold attractions, and the powerful claims of the periodical to exten? sive patronage cannot possibly be gainsaid. It is probably the most pleasing magazine published, containing a greater variety of choice reading-matter and more illustrations than any of its cotemporaries. Its litera? ture is pure and healthful, inculcating ex? alted sentiments; it is always vivacious, and edifies and instructs while it entertains. The opening article is a deeply interesting one by Proi. W. Wells, on "Emigration to the Holy Land." There is a charming memo? rial sketch, with portrait, of the late Miss King, of Georgia. There are several short stories, some of them adapted to children. The poems are more than ordinarily meri? torious. There is the Popular Exegesis by the Editor; and in "At Home and Abroad" he gives a full summary of what is passing in tbo religious world. The 128 quarto pages are crowded with good things, and theembelishments number nearly 100. The price is only $3 per annum, postpaid, six months $1.50, four months $1. Price of a single copy 25 cents. Address Frank Leslie's Publishing House, 53, 55 & 57 Park Place, New York. Ma. Editor : The Sunday school celebra? tion at Providence held by the colored peo? ple on the 12 inst., was a decided success. The meeting was presided over by Rev. R. Fletcher. After prayer by Kev. J. C. Rus? sell, the schools were introduced by G. D. Williams in the following order : Mt. 8inai, Mt. Pleasant, Springfield, Generostee, Mt. Olive, Centenary Church and Cedar Hill. Members of each school recited verses of Scripture, some of them reproducing as much as two chapters without prompting. Questions in the catechism were put to the children and promptly answered by them. Rev. J. C. Russell was then introduced as the orator of the day. He delivered a plain, practical address on the duties of parents, superintendents and teachers. He was fol? lowed by Rev. Elijah White, who gave some wholesome advice to his colored friends on the importance of educating their children. The occasion manifested a decided improve? ment in the management of their schools.

DIED, at Lowndesville, S. C, on Thursday evening, July 3, 1879, of inflam? mation of stomach and bowels, James Latimer, infant son of Dr. O. R. and Mrs. L. H. Horton, aged eleven months and eighteen days. "So fades the lovely, blooming flower, Frail, smiling solace of an hour; So soon our transient comforts fiy, And pleasure only blooms to die." Died, at Honea Path, July 7th, 1879, Mrs. EtsiE N., wife of Rev. R. M. King, in her 50ch year. Since her 15th year she had lived a consistent member of the Baptist Church : was perfectly resigned during her short illness, and attempted to sing Safe within the vale," just the day before her departure. Our sympathies extend to the husband, family ana friends in their sad loss. Died, on the morning of the 2nd July instant, James Mattison, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. John C- and Matilda J. Gantt, aged four months and eleven days. The little crib is vacant, there is a void in aching hearts, but there is sweet consolation in the fact that the tender spiritual germ that had just budded here on earth blooms to-day in heaven. Little Jimmie has been spared the cares and temptations of mature years, and has gone to join the angel band, where he will warble the song of redeeming love till the stricken parents come. "The Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away, blessed be the name of the Lord." D. Died, of typhoid fever, at the residence of his father near Townville. on Sunday morning, the 13th inst., after an illness of ten days, James W. Burgess, only son of J. A. and Nancy Burgess, in the 'Mat year f of his age. The subject of this notice made a public profession of religion about three years ago, and connected himself with the Baptist Church, of which he remained a consistent member till his death. He was kind and affectionate to his sisters, obedient and dutiful to his paronts, who in return bestowed on him their warmest affections. He was indeed their stay, their support. A large congregation attended his funeral on Monday, when after an able and impressive sermon by Rev. B. Holder, his remains was consigned to the grave to await the resur? rection morn. H. R. V.
