THE INTELLIGENCER LOCAL. MATTERS. Mali nearly 1900. BKDEF MENTION. The Kershaw Gazette and Camden Journal have both enlarged to 8-page papers. Maj. A. R. Broyies, of the Fork, has gone to the mountains on a chestnut hunt. Persons wishing to attend the Greenville Fair can go and return the same day for $1.45. The Greenville Fair is in full blast this week. Several of our citizens arc in attend ajic*'. We would direct attention to the change in the advertisements of J. P. Sullivan & Co., and Barr <fc Co. We have heard of several cases of typhoid fever in the Corner township. It is feared by some that it will become epidemic. The extreme warm weather is very bene? ficial to the cotton crop. If it should con? tinue for a few weeks the crop will be a full one. . Mr. Joseph R. Fant, our chief of police, lost by death on Sunday night last his little daughter Lucy, between two and three years of age. The County Commissioners have recently had a new barn and a kitchen erected at the Poor House, -both of which were much needed. The Newberry Herald will issue a daily during the Fair at that place. We know of one paper that did the same thing once, but only once. The 2nd quarter of the fall session of the Williamston Female College opened on Monday with over a hundred pupils in at? tendance. It was expected that quite a number would go to Charleston on the excursion to-day. Another one is announced for the 20th instant. We have not published tho proceedings of the Town Council for the past few weeks from the fact that r.hey have not been of special interest. * Newberry and Anderson Fairs come off on the same week. It is unfortunate that such is the case, as each will to some extent draw visitors from the other. The racing will form an attractive feature of the Fair next week. Several parties have already expressed their intention to enter the list of competitors. The merchants have agreed to close their stores on Friday of the Fair, the 24th hist,, and parties coming to town on that day need not expect to transact business. Appointments of the Y. M. C. A. for next Sunday: Poor House Committee, John W. Daniels and H. G. Scudday; Jail Commit? tee, W. D. Marony, and T. C. Ligon. Mr. C. W. Volkening, the enterprising proprietor of the bakery and confectionary under the store of B. F. Crayton & Sons, w?l furnish refreshments at the Fair. The advertisement of Mr. Julius Poppo will be found in another column. Persons wanting anything in his line of business will find his stock complete and of the best qualify. Call on C. A. Reed, Ag't, and examine his Hats and Clothing, which he is offering at snch low prices; and don't fail to see his elegant sewing machines before you pur? chase one. t The colored temperance societies of An? derson and the Fork held a joint meeting at Mt. Pleasant Church on Saturday last. It was largely attended, and was addressed by Mr. G. F. Tolly. See the advertisement in this issue of Mr. L. H. Seel. He employs only good work? men, and his stoves, steam cookers, &c, give universal satisfaction. Give him a call before purchasing. Messrs. N. K. & J.' P. Sullivan want those indebted to them to keep an eye on their advertisement in another column: They say they mean what they say, and desire all concerned to understand it. Seed Wheat, Bluestone, Seed Rye, Grass Seeds at t Sloan Bros., Greenville, 8. C. Mr. John Rothwell, the young man who conducted meetings at this place two years ago lost spring under the auspices of the Young Men's Christian Association, died in Guelph, Canada, on the 5th instant. The constant hig rush at the New York Cosh Store is the best evidence that the pro? prietors keep a hig stock and sell cheap for cash. They offer Dig bargains in domestics and jeans, boots and shoes. j The Anderson Theatrical Company are rehearsing two excellent plays, "kaval En? gagements" and "The Dutchman's Ghost," for Thursday night of the Fair. It will doubtless be a pleasant evening to those who attend. All persons intending to send articles to the State Fair should forward their entries to Mr. Thomas W. Holloway, at Pomaria, S. C, by the 1st November, as after that day the books will be closed and entries will not be received.. A change in the advertisement of Messrs. Simpson, Reed <fc Co. was received too late for insertion this week. They have a full stock of drugs, lamps, seeds, <fec, and want those indebted to them to settle their ac? counts. Mr. J. D. Maxwell has painted and fitted up anew his photograph gallery, and is now prepared better than ever before to make good pictures. An entirely new process is used m finishing. His advertisement will appear next week. The amount of cotton received at this place during the past two weeks aggregates 1,536 bales. For the whole season 2,347. The receipts up to this time are ahead of any previous year, notwithstanding we have Hartwell to compete with. We desire to call particular attention to our very cheap line of elegant block cash? meres, which we were fortunate enough to procure below market value; also' to our unexcelled stock of dress goods, plaids, silks and satins. Aexstein & Ross, f Messrs. Andrew & Prevost have just opened a stock of fancy groceries, confec? tioneries, cigars, tobacco, etc., in the new building on McCully's Corner, which, for completeness and excellence, is equal if not superior to any stock of the kind ever brought to this place. Everything is new and fresh, and will be disposed of at rea? sonable prices. His advertisement will ap? pear next week. The schedule of the up-passenger train on the Greenville and Columbia Railroad has been so changed as to make close connection with the east-bound train on the Air Lino Railroad at Seneca City. It reaches this place about 6-o'clock, an hour and a half earlier than formerly, which is a very great convenience. There has been no change in , the schedule of the down train. The time is ?aved by shortening stoppages and in? creasing speed. Next Saturday is the day upon which the meeting of the citizens of the Fork town? ship is to be held at Townville for the pur? pose of endowing a school of high grade. This is a step in the right direction, and if our friends of the Fork succeed, as we have no doubt they will, the result will not only be highly beneficial to their own commu? nity, but will induce other townships to enter into a similar arrangement, and there? by prove a great promoter of the cause of education in our County. We hope that all of the citizens of that" township will ar? range to be present at tho Townville meet? ing next Saturday. The following statement of the amount and valuation of the real estate of Ander? son County, for which we ore indebted to the County Auditor, was unintentionally omitted last week: No. acres plow land, 117,155, value $812,620; old field or meadow land 208,590, value $510,681; woodland 128, 141, value $788,588; total number acres, $153,895, vulue $2,111,889.

Value of all taxable real estate in the County $2,617,313. One of the most pleasant entertainments ever given in the town of Andorson was the one in Masonic Hall on Friday evening last, under the auspices of the ladies of the Epis? copal Church. It consisted of instrumen? tal and vocal music, the rendition of which reflected great credit on the young ladies and gentlemen participating. At the con? clusion of the farst part of the programme an intermission was given for refreshments, consisting of ice cream and cake. Tho sec? ond part of the programme consisted of selections from the popular opera Pinafore, which were well rendered. Proceeds about fifty dollars. Our Texas correspondent, "Justice," whoso letter will bo found on our first page, expresses surprise that we should have endorsed the articlo of Prof. DuPree, published in our issuo of August 23, con? cerning the state of affairs in the Lone Star State. The only endorsement given the article, however, was in the caption, and bad it occurred to us at the time that would have been taken as an endorsement of his statements we would not have used that beading, although it was no more than many other papers did, as the article was clipped from one of our exchanges. Wc are glad that our correspondent has replied to it. and assure him that wp take pleasure in giving his letter publicity. We do not desire to do injustice to any section, and our columns are always open to any one who may feel aggrieved at any thing published in them. We thank "Justice" for his offer to furnish matters of interest from his State, and shall be pleased to receive his commu? nications. Racing at the Fair. The following is the programme for racing, entrance fees, and purses to be offered at the next Fair: thursday, october 23D, 1879. First Race? One-half mile dash, for all ages. Purse, $25.

The voters of Anderson Court House will meet in convention in the Court House on next Saturday at 2 o'clock, for the purpose of electing not more than live nor less than three persons to represent the town sub? scription in the meeting of stockholders of the Savannah Valley Railroad to be bold at Lowndesville on the I2th of November. The voters of Centerville township will meet at Hunter's Spring ; of Varennes at Flat Rock; of Hau at Carswell Institute; of Savannah at Davis' Mill; of the Corner at MoSattsville, and of Lowndesville at Lowndesville, on next Saturday at 2 o'clock p. m., for the purpose of selecting not more than five nor less than three persons to rep? resent their several subscriptions. We hope that there will be a full meeting at each of the places named, and that good, prudent and practical representatives will be select? ed. There is a great deal involved in the organization of the Company, and every voter ought to endeavor to be present for the purpose of aiding in making the selec? tion. I eath of on Estimable Lady. The'announcement of the death of Mrs. Fannie M. Sloan, which occurred at the residence of her husband, Mr. T. Douglas Sloan, in Atlanta, Ga., at 4 o'clock on the afternoon of Friday the 3rd inst., will be read with sorrow by a large number of our subscribers, who bad known and admired her during her residence in this State. An ?.ccomplisued ladv and a consistent Chris? tian, she possessed those qualities of mind snd heart which rendered her a favorite with friends and acquaintances, and gave' her young life the promise of a brigbc, Iiappy and interesting future. Ho that doeth all things well had, however, decreed otherwise than that this dream should be realized, and the reaper has gathered the fond and affectionate wife, the amiable and pleasant friend and the beautiful and pious follower of the Nazarene from the associa? tions of earth to enter thus early into the higher joys of the Great Ruler, to whom she had given her allegiance. The bright flower which had adorned with its perfection has been plucked in its early bloom, and the fair picture has been obscured from those who most loved and admired. The hand of affliction and the pall of sorrow rest where but a few days ago all was happy and cheer? ful with the fond hopes of future joy and usefulness. Thus do the fair flowers of earth wither and fade. Thus do the bright? est hopes of time fail and deceive. In this sad bereavement the stricken husband, how? ever, has the consolation that what is his anguish and calamity only marks the en? trance of her who is gone into that future life of bliss, where sorrow and pain will harm no more, and where, with the bless? ings which crown the good beyond this vale of tears, she awaits that union which shall restore the family circle that is sun? dered on earth in .hat land of pure delight, where death can never go and where unal? loyed bliss shall never be interrupted by partings again. Sandy Springs. All quiet in this community since the camp meeting. The citizens here are in favor of continuing to hold their annual camp meetings and making permanent ar? rangements to preserve good order.The Grange held a public meeting in their hall last Saturday. The attendance was small and the dinner bountiful. The hall was furnished with chairs by one of its generous members, which was quite a comfort and improvement.Several cases of diphthe? ria have appeared in our midst. Two cases have been fatal and others serious.The cotton is opening very fast.Three gins are running in this immediate vicinity, and each receives a liberal patronage.Our farmers are making Anderson their market this year, with very few exceptions.A goodly number of our citizens anticipate attending the Greenville Fair; but our County Fair will be attended by the large majority._Civis. Honen Patb. An attempt was made a few nights since to assassinate a colored man by the name of Charles Datcher, who lives near here. The guilty party has been captured, and it is hoped will get justice. It seems a plot had been formed by a number of negroes to kill Datcher on account of his taking out warrants against them for stealing.Mr. Marshall Bigby's barn, containing his whole crop of fodder and two hundred bushels of oats, was burned by an incendi? ary last Sunday night. It is believed that some of the same party that tried to kill Datcher are the perpetrators of this deed. .Five hundred bales of cotton have been sold here this season, which is a little less than was sold up to the same time last year. .We were glad to meet your old corres? pondent (Wm.) a few days ago.
