Tho greatest coltou-ptcklnf of which wc

Vance McGee picked in one day five hun
dred and twenty-five p und? of cotton,
which mnkes him thc champion cotton
picker of the County, and indeed, so far as
wo have noticed, of tho whole State. On
tho same day a colored man named Howard
Kay picked 425 pounds, which was also an
extra day's work in eotton-plcking.

New York, havo agreed, in response to a re
quest from Hon. If. F. Crayton, to render

thc Fair Grounrlj this morning about ll
o'clock. This Company has elicited the
most enthusiastic praises from tho press
wherever they havo performed, and con
senting to contribute to thc success of our
County Fair shows that they are generous
and public spirited. All within reach of
tho Fair Grounds should attend to-day, for
tho selections which this quartette are to
sing will he moro than worth tho gate
money.
Mrs. 8allio Sloan, wife of Dr. IL G. Sloan,
and eldest daughter of Rev. F. G- Carpenter,

Williamston on last Tuesday, after a long

Mrs. Sloan T.AS a very excellent lady, and
was much 1-elovcd by those with whom she
cft.ae in contact. As a member of society
: ho was pleasant and sociable, as a Chris
tian she wae nure and simple, and as a wife
she was devoted and loving. The news of
her death reaches ns just as tho paper is
about going to press, and we are sure ita
announcement, will bo read with rewct by
ber very many rolativcs and friends In this
County, whose sorrow and sympathy will
bo mingled with the grief of thc Immediate
family In their great loss and sore bereave
ment.
The Fifth Avenuo Now York Opera Com
pany arrived in Anderson on the 22nd inst.,
and aro advertised to render, on Wcdnr-s
day the 22nd and Thursday tho 23id hw.,
in Temperance Hall, tho new and very
popular Opera, "H. M. S. Pinafore," which
has bnen oil ol tho rage with theatro goers
In Europe and America for the lost twelve
month:;. It ls ono of the most successful
comic operas thai has ever been produced,
and is such a performance as to entertain
all without giving offense to any. The
Company which la now . playing it in An
derson is pronounced by competent critics
to be one of tho best companies that has ever
visited this section of the State, and all who
wish to bo revived by a hearty laugh should
not miss tho opportunity of attending these
plays. Tickets for sole at the Post O? ilea.
In consequence of tho unfavorable weath
er, no meeting of the citizens of V?rennos
township was held on last Saturday to elect
delegates to represent the subscription of
that township to the Savannah Valley Rail
road, and we are requested to announce that
a meeting for that purpose will he held at
Flat Rock on Saturday, tho first day of No
vember, at 3 o'clock p. m. Five delegates
are to bo elected, and as lt is a matter of very
great importance wo hopo every citizen of
?lie township will bc present, oven If he has
to make a sacrifice to do so. Thc money
has been voted, tho township will be taxed,
and its citizens should turn out and select
good men to represent them in the organi
zation of the Company, and to assist lu be
ginning this enterprise in tho speediest and
at the same time tho most judicious and
economical manner possible.
Mrs. James T. McCorkle, nee Miss Mamie
A. Smith, eldest daughter of Mr. W. G.
Smith, of Sandy Springs, died at the resi
dence of her husband in Central on last
Friday ovening after a short illness. Mrs.
McCorkle possessed many noble qualities
for which she was beloved and admired by
her many friends and acquaintances, who
join with her family in mourning har early
death. She had been .carried but a short
time, and life's morning ?cerned bright and
joyous to her and hers. The end, however, j
wai nearer than any human eyo could seo,
and in a very few days tho bloom of health
faded into the pallor of death. The change,
though sudden, did not find her unprepared
for death, and ber friend? rejoice in tho as
surance that tho change for her is a glorious
one.
Mr. Joseph Lee, eldest son of Maj. T. B.
Lee, of this County, came near drowning
on last Saturday morning, in trying to cross
Hurricano Creek, on the Pendleton road,
BIX miles from this place. Mr. Leo drove
Into tho stream without 'anticipating any
danger. The little stream, which Is not si
inches deep nor moro than three feet wido
in ordinary times, was swollen to a perfect
torrent by thc preceding heavy rain, and
washed his horse and buggy down and bim
with it. Mr. Leo lost consciousness in tbe
struggle and went under. When his con
sciousness returned he found himself upon
a drift somo distance below the ford, where
the force of the stream carried him, and to
which foriunaio circumstance bo owes his
life. The buggy was also lodged in a turn
of the creek below, and the horse had man
aged to extricate himself from tho buggy
rand was safo also. We are glad to learn
that Mr. Lee has entirely recovered from
the effects of the accident, and tbat tho dam
age was therefore comparatively small.
This case ls one of tho most fortunato mis
fortunes that can he found anywhere.
The Stato Faur promises to bo a grand
success this year, and wc hope Anderson
County will again bo largely represented in j
its varions departments. It is important to
every interest of onr pponi? that- the Stats
Fair be well sustained! aslt is an institution
from which great good will emanate. Tbe
faro on the . various railroads in tho State
has been greatly reduced, so that everybody
who desires to go can do so at a compara
tively trifling cost. The faro on the Green
ville <fc Columbia Railroad will bo two cents
a mlle, which will mako tho cost of trans
portation from Anderson only $5.01, while
all articled intended for exhibition will be
charged for at regular rates on being shipped
to Columbia, but upon being returned to
tho points from which they were originally
sent the amounts charged will bo remitted,
which is equivalent to free transportation.
We sincerely trust thepeoplo of this County
will sustain their past record fer enterprise,
thrift and public spirit by an extensive ex
hibition ot the products of their various
industries.

The Anderson County Farmers' ana Me

Ma. EDITOR: Thinking that perhaps
some of your reader* would Uko to. know
what wn aro doing in our littlo "burg," I
will let; them hoar.from us through your
paper. " ?
The people horo'aro nhowing'.unusual in
terest In a projected railroad from hero to
Westminister or Seneca City, though the
former place seems,to be preferred on ac
count oi tho little grading that will have to
be done. This section of Oconoo and tl?e
Fork of Anderson County need an outlet
badly. Tho whole community seems to be
greatly interested in the matter, and th'-y
should be, too, fin- we have a fine farming
country, besides tho best water power in tho
State, not only on this eldo ont on the
Georgia side of Tugaloo River also. For
the people to remain idle and not build a
railroad from hero to sonic point will bo
like cutting their own throats. I think,
though, that they aro fully aroused to tho
importance of such a step, for they seem de
termined to build tho road, cost what it
may. They see, too, how a railroad to thi?
point will enhance thc value of their land*,
end enablo them also to buy goods and pro
visions cheap at homo. It ls vory incon
venient to haul cotton ten or twelve miles.
The road will bo built, and that, too, at no
distant day. It is proposed to raise tho
money for the road by subscription. Tho
shares aro put ut twonty dollars each, so
that they will be in reach of every one. It
is estimated that it will tr.he twenty thou
sand dollars to grade thor.'ad and put down
cross ties, though there "re persons who
havo offered to take tho contract for much
less. Between ono hundred and seventy
five and two hundred shares have been
already taken up, and there are dally appli
cations for shares. All persons that nave
subscribed so far eay that, if necessary, they
will doublo the number of shores already
taken by them. Mr. D. If. Glenn has
taken fifty shares alone, and says that be
fore the road sholl fall through he will tako
one hundred more. There aro several
others who propose to give largely to tho
road. This much has been done by Fair
Play and tho surrounding country, and it is
thought that Westminister, if tho road is
run to that point, will subscribo liberally.
South Union ana Oakway will do their
duty beyond a doubt, besides wo will re
ceive aid from tho Georgia side of Tugaloo.
When enough money has been subscribed
to grade tho road ana put down the tics, it
has been proposed to turn it over to nome
corporation to put down tho iron and fur
nish the rolling stock. Col. R. E. Mason
will bo sent to Atlanta this week to confer
with tho authorities of the Ahr Line Rail
road for that purpose. A meeting wlU soon
be called to put tue whole matter 'n a more
business-like Bhap-j, and to determine
whether the rood will bo run to Westmin
ister or Seneca City. A charter will be ap
plied for at the earliest day possible. It is
not proposed to make this tho terminus of I
tho rood, but to extend it to Andersonvillo,
at tho junction of the Seneca and Tugaloo
Rivers, in your County. The people of the
whole Fork seem to bo interested in this
road, and it is expected that they wiU sub
scribo liberally. Mr. G. W. Maret seems to
be exerting himself very much in this en
terprise, and no doubt ho will do good work
in its behalf. We havo the proper soil and
a healthy climate, and only need a railroad
and emigrants to make this tho best farm
ing section of South Carolina.
I understand that our sister town, Town
ville, is trying to get1 np a railroad. I wish
ber all the success possible, but this section
will hardly support two roads, and I fear
that she is too far distanced to do any thing
in tho matter.
It is estimated that tho cotton crop will
not make moro than a half yield as com
pared with lost year, though moro aro great
many August and carly September nolls
that will mature, if frost does not put in t oo
early an appearance, and thus swell thc
yie'd a little.
Tho coro crop on bottom lands is very
good, and will make a yield fully up to last
year's, but the upland com is >very poor,
and will bring tho average down pretty low.
There seems to be a tendency to sow bargo
email grain crops. By tbs means the far
mers wiU bo able to get through another
year more easily, as tho small grain will
take thojplaco of corn. ? '
Mr. w. j. Hix hos a very fine pea crop.
He bas ten acres of the finest ever grown in
this section, that is, it is so reported by old
fanners.
Col. W. W. Holland is doing good work
at bis gin, and is consequently kept busy.
Mr. G. M. it. Bollman has bad a fine
school in tho Fork. Reports give him- tho
name of being a fine instructor, and I wish
bim success in his profession.
Tho "fence question" is being notated
here. There is a good deal of talk about it,
but very little action so far. There, was a
meeting at Seneca City to discuss the subject
on Saturday, October 11th, bat I have heard
nothing from it. Whilo the law will not
suit the mountain portion of Oconco, I be
lieve that it would oe a good tiling for th is
section of tho county. I guess that steps
will soon bo taken to test tba matter in the
townships below tho Air Lino Railroad,
do not see why the people hesitate, when
they seo it working so weil in other coun
ties. __=___ C*:

Reign of Terror in Georgia.
Tue ??iiie?gvillo Union and Recorder of I
yesterday publishes a brief account of a
deplorablo Btato of affairs in tho county
of Baldwin-in tiist section lying east of
the Oconco Rlvor. It nppoars that this

fears, andjustly, foi the klan do not hes

way to burn. Many dark and bloody
doods havo boon committed by this band,
whose rotroata aro Bald to be secure in
tho fastness of denso swamps which
fri ugo tho Oconoe and Its tribu tai les.
Tho latest outrages by thoso despera
does, whilo they do not surpass othors of
tho samo charactor, aro thrilling in tho
ox tremo. From, our contomoporary wo
gather that Cicero Gordon, a negro, is
ib'.ir lost victim ; and it appears that bo
v/aa put out of tho way to Buit a purpoao,
and that purpeso was to get rid of bis
ev 'donco agains?; thom, ho having boon
sun- moued before a court of Just leo aa u
witness. Suffioo it that Gordon was re
turning to bb) homo from Mllledgevillo,
when fie was waylaid in a dark ravino,
his body riddled with bullet", and his
corpse left on tho road where lt felt. Pro
ceeding thon to tho plantation of a well
to-do citizen. Dr. J. A. P. Robson
whereon Goroon was a tenant, tho out
laws deliberately fired his promises, de
stroying his gin-house with oil its con
tente, his cotton houses wit'a his un
ginned cotton, bio thresher, scrow and
othor property, keeping tho doctor and

at thom repeatedly, while tho flames wore i
licking up the results of bis industry I
and hard labor for years.

that all tho good citizens in that ssctlou
of tho county aro terrorlzod with silence,
and whilo it ia supposed they know tho

We learn addltlonnl that thia section of
