It is lair to nay that the New York Cash

success, f

ing in size from a pea to a guinea egg.
Mrs. P. A. Wilhite and her accomplished
daughter, Misa Mary, will please accept our
thanks for the premium canned peaches and

received the largest number of premiums.

October 23, 1879.
The very heavy rains of week before last
did considerable damage to the corn crops
in the Seneca, Tugalo and Deep Creek bot?
toms by overflowing those streams. The
crops of several farmers are said to be an
almost entire loss, as the water stood on
them several days, souring the corn and
rendering it almost wholly unfit for use.
We hope, however, that the loss is not as
serious as at first represented.
At a convention of the tax-payers of Sa?
vannah Township, held on Saturday, 18th
of October inst., the following dolegatcs
were chosen to represent said township in
the Savannah Valley Railroad Convention,
to be held in Lowndesvile on the 12th of
November next, to wit: E. J. Earle, B. A
Davis, Wm. Jones, W. A. Hodges and R.
P. Clinkscales. Alternates?E. W. Stew?
art, A. E. Scudday and J. Alewine.
We beg leave to tender our apologies to
the many people who, in the crowd which
thronged our establishment during Fair
week, were not properly waited upon, and
assure all that with increased a*?istance we
shall now be able to attend to all. Our
sales are so immense that we can afford to
sell goods cheaper than ever.
Arnstein & Rose,
New York Cash Store.
We arc requested to announce that a
meeting of the citizens of Varennes town?
ship will be held on next Saturday, the first
day of November, at 3 o'clock p. m., for the
purpose of electing five delegates to repre?
sent the subscription of that township in
the meeting of the stockholders of the Sa?
vannah Valley Railroad called to meet at
Lowndesville on the 12th of November. It
is a matter of great importance to the town?
ship to be represented by good and reliable
men, and we hope there will be a full at?
tendance at Flat Rock on next Saturday to
select them.
The Fifth Avenue Opera Company of
New York played the celebrated comic
o|>cra "Pinafore" in Anderson on last
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Satur?
day nights, in the Temperance Hall, and
were greeted on each occasion with large
and appreciative audiences. It was decided?
ly the most accomplished troupe that has
ever visited Anderson, and is such a Com-*
pony as would be received with pleasure by
any theatre-going audience. The rendition
of all the Parts was very good, indeed, and
those of Sir Joseph Porter, Little Buttercup,
Ralph Rackstraw, Josephine and Dicjt
Dcadeye were very fine. The play is a very,
amusing one, and this Company, brought
out its points with fine effect. 'i*heir sing?
ing was excellent, and, indeed, the wiiole
was fully up to the requirements of a first
class opera ptxformance.
Mrs. Scotia Brown, wife of Mr. Samuel
Brown, Jr.. died at the residence of her
husband in the town of Anderson on last
Sunday morning after a long and painful
illness, from which she suffered greatly,
and was confined to her bed for about three
years. Mrs. Brown was a daughter of the
late Dr. C. L. Gaillard, of this County, and
was a ladv of fine education and culture.
For her many excellent traits of character
she was admired and beloved by her asso?
ciates and friends. She was patient and re?
signed in her suffering, and displayed in
practice the sincerity of her Christian pro?
fessions under trials which very few are
called upon to suffer. She leaves a husband
and five children with whose grief the sym?
pathy of a large circle of relatives and friends
is joined. Their sorrow is not, however,
without consolation, for they realize that
death has but called her spirit from a world
of sorrow and pain to one of rest .and joy
forever. Death had no pain for th "depart?
ed one, but came rather as an angel of rest
to relieve her of suffering and grant her en?
trance into rest. The funeral services were
Sjrformed in Grace Episcopal Church by
ev.W. H. Hankel of Pendlcton, after which
the remains were placed to rest in the Bap?
tist Church cemetery.
Col. Brown's War Pony.
Among the attractions at the Fair, and
especially to the survivors of McGowau's
Brigade, may be mentioned Col. Brown's
marsh tackey, which was in all the cam?
paigns of the "Army of Northern Virginia,"
from the battle of Gaincs' Mill to the sur?
render at Appomattox, and whose history
is closely connected with "Bob," her rider,
who is also a survivor. Though not so
handsome as the other horses, she has a
more eventful history.
The County Fair.
The Annual Fair of the Farmers* and
Mechanics' Fair Association of Anderson
Connty came off last week, and was very
successful, considering the unfavorable start
given it by the had weather. The exhibits,
though not so numerous as heretofore, were
of excellent quality, and did great credit to
the people of this County in the various de?
partments. The needle and fancy work,
the household, the poultry, the live stock
and the field crop departments were well
filled by a great variety of exhibits. To
particularize exhibits in these several de?
partments, would be to make distinctions
where it is difficult to ascertain which was
most deserving, and therefore wc will con?
tent ourselves with ascribing excellence to
all of them. The attendance was better this
year than it was last, and, as a consequence,
the Directors announce that, despite the bad
weather, they made enough from gate
money to pay all of the expenses of the ex?
hibition. President Cray ton and J. L.
Tribble, Esq., the Secretary, have reason to
congratulate themselves upon succeeding so
well under so many difficulties. Our peo?
ple ought to patronize the Fair more gen?
erally, hoth by sending articles for exhibi?
tion and by giving their own attendance.
We hope that the ladies and gentlemen of
the Connty will begin in time to prepare for
next year, that the display may be greater,
and thereby increase the attractions to the
crowd.

Honea Path.
Our farmers now think they will make
about two-thirds of a cotton crop and about
half a corn crop.Oat sowing has com
mecced, and from present indications a
large quantity will be put in. This is a
move in the right direction, and we hope
onr whole country will adopt it.The
washing away of the Abbeville side of the
bridge at Erwin's mills caused considerable
inconvenience to the traveling public, but
Mr. Erwin has remedied the evil by put?
ting in a boat, so that parties can still cross
free.Two colored men, Tulley Beaks and
Cade Ellis, have been lodged in Abbeville
jail, charged with burning Bigby's barn.
.One of our fair friends, while attending
the Fair, had her portmonie and contents
stolen, which we don't consider at all fair
dealings with our lair friend; and if the
party who took it does not return it, we will
consider them very unfair.Prof. H. G.
Reed will commence his school at this place
on the 3rd of November, Parents should
start their children at the beginning of the
session, as it will enable them to be classed
properly.Our merchants are increasing
their trade daily, and are selling as cheap as
the cheapest. Nemo.

COunty last Spring, authorizing the under?
signed as President to call another meeting

October 28th, 1879.
? Ex-Gov. llubbard, of Texas, esti?
mates that tho population of that State
under - tho new census will roach three
millions, and entitles the Stato, under
the presont ratio of representation, to
twenty-two members of Congress, which
exceeds that of any State at present, ex?

Settled Beyond a Docbt.?No one ques?
tions the fact that more cases of whites,
suppressed and irregular menses and uterine
obstructions of every kind, are being daily,
cured by Dr. J. Bradfield's Female Regula?
tor, than hy all other remedies combined.
Thousands of certificates from women every?
where pour in upon the proprietor. Tho
attention of prominent medical men is
aroused in behalf of this wonderful com?
pound, and the most successful practition?
ers use it. If women suffer hereafter it will
be their own fault. All druggists keep it.
