We received by Wednesday morning's mail the following sad news from Town ville: "Early last Saturday, the 20th instant, John B. Dorr met a most tragic fate by a tub of sediment falling from the mouth to the bottom of a well in which he was at work, a few miles from here, and striking his head crushed the skull, causing instant death. This sad end is all the more unfor? tunate in the fact that Mr. Dorr, himself young, left a young wile and several little childron, who were dependent upon his earnings for a livelihood."

Persons owning land lying along water courses in this County should observe its provisions, or they may be put to con? siderable trouble. It reads as follows: "Sectio? 1. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the State of South Carolina, now met and sitting in General Assembly, and by the authority of the same, That from and after the passage of this Act all land owners of the Counties of Anderson and Beaufort shall remove from the running streams of water upon their land all trash, trees, rafts and timber during the months of March and Septem? ber in each year. "Sec 2. Any person convicted of a viola? tion of this Act shall be punished by a fine of not less than five nor more than fifty dollars, in the discretion of the Court before which the case may be tried. "Sec. 3. Any person convicted of cutting down trees across or into running streams upon the lands of another, in the Counties aforesaid, shall be liable to the same pun? ishment above prescribed." A Fatal Accident. A most distressing accident occurred at the residence of Mr. W.; P. Wright, in Martin.township, near the Abbeville line, on Monday evening last, which resulted in the death of Mr. William Fields and the painful if not serions injury of Mr. Wright. It seems that Mr. Wright had called togeth? er a number of his neighbors to assist him in raising a crib, which was to occupy the same ground of an old one recently torn away. On one side of the old building was a shed, which it was desired should remain, and become a part of the new building, and which had accordingly been propped up. As they were proceeding with the raising of the new crib, however, from some cause or other, the shed fell, striking both Mr. Fields and Mr. Wright, the former dying from the injuries received within an hour's time. The injuries sustained by Mr. Wright were not so serious, though at first it was feared he could not recover. He was better when we heard last, however, and it is thought now he will be able to be out in a few days. Mr. Fields was a valued citizen, a quiet and industrious farmer and a good neighbor, who enjoyed the confidence and esteem of aU his acquaintances. He leaves a wife and several children to mourn bis untimely death. The Excursion on Last Sunday. The excursion over the GreenYille & Co? lumbia Railroad to Sandy Springs on last Sunday was the largest of the season. Trains were run from Columbia, Green? ville, Abbeville and Walhalla at greatly reduced rates of fare, and every car was crowded. The train from Columbia left that place with forty-seven passengers, and at every station on the line received addi? tions to its numbers. The train from Ab? beville increased its load very considerably, and when it reached Belton the crowd from Greenville awaiting it swelled the number to thirteen hundred. The whole train consis? ted of thirteen coaches, and in order avoid further crowding and jaming at this place, it passed through without making any halt at all. A second train came up a few minutes after the first one passed, but as the only accommodations for passengers were three box cars, it was not at all crowded, and sev? eral of those who contemplated going, and had accordingly bought tickets, had their money refunded rather than put up with the sorry accommodations. The second train left this point with eighty passengers, most of whom were colored, and was called to the assistance of the first train, which staulded about Bird's Crossing. They ar? rived at the grwiuds in safety, however, about 12 o'clock/or shorfly after. We learn the train from Walhalla was also very much crowded, and that it brought down over seven hundred passengers. The day's work was certainly a big one for the Railroad, which realized at "least twelve or fifteen hundred dollars. The conduct of a large number of the passengers as they passed this place was any* thing but orderly. The shouting, halloo? ing and other unnecessary noises kept up on ?be train were distinctly heard several hundred yards from the Railroad. It seemed more like an excursion to a big frolic than to a religious meeting, and that every body on board took it for granted that no one expected good behavior. The conduct of many of the young men alter they arrived at Sandy Spring was not only disrespectful, hut disgraceful in the extreme. While the order immediately about the stand and church was generally very good, out on the outskirts and uboutthe Railroad it was extremely bad, and calls for the se? verest condemnation. It reflects great dis? credit on the morals and characters of a large number, who not only engaged in loud swearing and excessive drinking, but also in many other vices equally as degrad? ing. It is a day that will long be remem? bered by a great many who were in attend? ance on the meeting,"many scenes of which we hope will never again be enacted. We understand that the authorities of the camp meeting were opposed to having the trains run, and even requested that they should not be run. If so, we must say that the Railroad authorities are responsible for putting these trains on as a matter of busi? ness on Sunday to run to a religious meet? ing, which was anxious to have them dis? pensed with. Be it said to the credit of the young men of Anderson they were in no wise connec? ted with any of the bail behavior. We understand that a colored man who whs severely beaten by the rowdies at Sandy Springs on Sunday is in a very critical con? dition. It is thought by some that he will hardly recover. Tho rremiura List. The premium list of the Twelfth Annual Fair of the Anderson Fanners' and Me? chanics' Association has been issued, and is now being distributed through the County. We hope every one who can will obtain a copy and ascertain for what premiums are ollered, and then go to work, if they have not already done so, and prepare something for exhibition. As we have stated before, it is the only thing of public interest to which our pe?plo have to look forward this fall, and we know of no reason why it shonld not be in every' respect a success. There is not an agricultural association in the State the reputation and record of which can compare with ours. Ever since its organization it has stood at the head of all the county associations in South Caro? lina, and we hope to see its success this fall more complete and the display more bril? liant than it has ever been in the past. The Fair 'will open to the public on Wedncsdav morning, 22d October, and con? tinue for three days. The rules and regula? tions will be about the same as heretofore, while the gate fees remain the same. The premium offered for all articles in the field crop department is the American Farmer, one of the best agricultural journals in the South. For articles in the stock depart? ment the premiums range in value from $1 to $5. In the poultry department one and two dollar premiums are given, and in the various household departments, the manu? facturers', needle ana fancy work and fine art departments premiums of the value of one dollar are offered. In the floral depart? ment they range in value from one to five dollc.rs. The snecial nreroiums are valued at two and three dollars. Taken altogether the offers are all liberal and generous enough, and should insure a lively compe? tition. The intrinsic value of a premium, however, should not be the only incentive to those competing for it, for where that is the case dissatisfaction and ill-feeling is sure to follow. But we should strive for it more because of the credit and distinction of hav? ing excelled our competitor in excellence and merit. This is the spirit by which we should be actuated, and the spirit that will render the Fair pleasaut as well as profita? ble. The greater the number of articles ex? hibited the greater will be the competition, and consequently the greater the credit and honor for having been the successful com? petitor. Let every one consider it a duty to not only to come to the Fair, but to also contribute something to the exhibition. It will pay in one way if not in another. Sandy Springs Camp Meeting. The Camp Meeting at Sandy Springs on last Sunday was the most largely attended of any held there since the war, having been estimated by good judges at from five to eight thousand persons. In the morning an able sermon was preached in the Church j by Eev. S. B. Jones, D. D., but unfortu? nately the building was so small that very few of the vast crowd present were able to get standing room within. Rev. Mr. Rus? sell also preached at the same hour to a very large audience at the arbor, and the behavior was very good about the preach? ing, though there were many persons who could not get seats or within a reasonable hearing distance of either of the ministers. Away from the immediate grounds, how? ever, the good behavior was exchanged for very bad conduct, for which the parties en? gaged in it should be heartily asha'mcd. We think it strange that people attending religious meetings on Sunday should so far forget the proprieties of life as to engage in such conduct as to render the occasion one of frolic or boisterous conduct to the an? noyance of those who are seeking to make it one of moral pleasure and profit. Those who do not know how to behave them? selves should stay away from such places, and if they are not disposed to do so of their own accord, public opinion should enforce their absence. We are glad to believe in this case that the rowdies who hung around the outskirts of the grounds were not from this County. The meeting to those who attended it from the beginning was very interesting and the results very satisfactory. It was earnest and impressive throughout. BRIEF MENTION. The farmers say they never had better weather for gathering cotton. The wood market has opened at seventy five cents for two-horse loads. The drop down in cotton has caused a failing off in receipts for the last few days. Remember to pay your subscription when you sell your cotton. We need the money. The cold east wind on Sunday and Mon? day last made fire quite necessary for com? fort. The Rev. R. H. Nail, of Greenville, will preach in the Presbyterian Church next bunday at 11 p. m. The continued dry weather has made the streets and roads very' dusty, and everybody is wishing for rain. One gossipper, in twenty-four hour's time, can destroy all the peace and good feeling of a whole community. Another big colored camp meeting next Sunday. This time it is held at Hunnicut's Crossing on the Blue Ridge Railroad. The corporators of the Savannah Valley Railroad will hold an important meeting ai this place on next Wednesday, October 1st. A typographical error in our last issue made Master Johnnie Cooper, the champion cotton picker of the Lowudesville neighbor? hood, 23 years old instead of 13. Mr. C. D. Shuford has commenced work on a residence for Capt. J. J. Pretwell on the lot on Main street beyond the residence of Mr. S. Bleckley. It will be a cottage of four or five rooms. Don't take your cotton elsewhere until you give the Anderson merchants a trial. They will pay as much for cotton as the merchants of any other place, and will also sell goods as cheap. Messrs. J. P. Reed, Jr., and Columbus Wardlaw have gone to Virginia to continue their education. The former attends the Ken more High School and the latter the University of Virginia, We direct attention to the advertisements to be found in this issue of the Xew York Cash Store, Paris Store, Parr it Co., Ladies' St?re, Reed & Herrick, Cunnigham it Co., Miss Delia Keys and J. B. Clai k & Son. The Abbeville County Fair will be held this year on 29th, 30th and 31st of October, just one week after the Anderson Fair. It will doubtless be a success, and we hope some of our citizens will find time to at? tend. The cotton receipts at this place for the week ending Tuesday night last aggregated 744 bales against 323 for the same time last year. This makes 1?33 bales for Anderson this year, probably the largest amount ever sold here this early in the season. We had intended this week to have given the business houses of Anderson an extend? ed notice, but owing to the fact that Court has been in session all week, in which the editor has been constantly engaged, we have been compelled to postpone it until next week. The Abbeville P/r.?* and Banner calls for a reduction from fifty to twenty-five cents in the gate fees of the Abbeville Fair, and says: "We want a big crowd and the only way to have a large attendance is to reduce thegate fees to a reasonable price. Let fandlies come in at the rate of a dollar a dozen or twenty five centsjfor a single person." Wo repro? duce the suggestion for the benefit of our Fair authorities. The Circuit Court is still in session, and will likely consume the greater portion, if not all, of the week. The jury causes were finished on last Friday, and since that time his Honor, Judge Pressley. has been dili? gently disposing of the equity causes, some of which have been long and tedious. The Court has been one of the most pleasant that has ever been held in Anderson ; and the bar and our people are greatly pleased with the presiding Judge, who has increased the favorable impression he first made by the better acquaintance, which his administra? tion of the law for the pest ten days has giv? en our people with him. The Augusta Chronicle and Const it n/ionnlist says that work is progressing on the bridge for the Augusta, Knoxville and Greenwood Railroad across the Savannah River. One of the abutments has been completed and another is under way. The lower portion of the piers will be done during the dry weather in order that there will be no delay when the rains commence .and the River rises in the Winter. The abutments and piers will be constructed of stone masonry, of tho most substantial character. The bridge will be ready by the time the grad? ing on the entire line between Greenwood and the River is finished.

UM best thing whlchhas over been written con? cerning Bunyan. Another admirable article is entitled "Recollections of Auld Itcckic," in which the Rev. Robert Irvine gives pleasant reminis? cences ?f Chalmers, Jeffrey, Wilson and others who made Edinburgh famous some fifty vcars ago. Godfrey A. Hudson, in the paper "'An African Bishop," gives a sketch of the career of a native African who was sold as a slave when a mere boy, captured from a slave ship and sent to Sierra Leone, where hs was educated, received th9 degree of. D.D., and finally became Bishop of Niger, in Africa. The department of fiction contains ex? cellent stories by popular writers.

Something New Under the Sex.?A new era is dawning upon the life of woman. Hitherto she has been called upon to suffer the ills of mankind and her own besides. The frequent and distressing irregularities peculiar to her sex have long been to her the "direful spring of woes unnumbered." In the mansion of the rich, and in the hovel of poverty alike, woman has been the con? stant, yet patient victim of a thousand ills unknown to man?and these without a remedy. "Oh Lord, how long!" in the agony of her soul hath she cried. But now the hour of her redemption is come. She will suffer no more, for Dr. J. Bradfield's Female Regulator?Woman's Best Friend? may be relied on to cure all the diseases pe? culiar to women. Try it and be convinced.

Dear Sim?The OO-Saw Pratt Gin bought from you in the fall of 1877 has been thor; otighiy tested since that time, and has given ent ire satisfaction. I havo no hesitation in pronouncing the sample made by it to be superior to that made by any Gin known to me. I have ginned as much as 350 bales of cotton?have had no repairing to do, and the Gin is now in perfect order. Its great Improvement consists' in its Revolving Head, which prevents cotton roll from breaking, and which completely destroys the friction produced by cotton lJox, there? by incr'-using its speed, preventing injury to HIW8, and the sample from being uin-cut.
