Several charming young ladies from Wal nalla have been spending a few weeks in Anderson Recently. Tho Dime Reading at the residence of Mr. 8.

N&hee, who has sold out bis shoe shop, is going to put up a saw mill on the Air Line Railrcad. ?^?On>last Saturday Mr. P. F. King took ninety pounds of honey from one gum.

The Greenville Noes has suspended pub? lication, and the entire outfit of the office will be sold at public outcry on the 10th instant. There will bo a meeting of Hunter's Spring Grange on next Saturday at 1 p. m. for the transaction of important special business.

Wren took a photograph of Depot street and a portion of the Public Square - during the blockade of cotton wagons on Friday last The line reached from the de? pot to Main street Cob's Circus shows in Greenville to-day, Newberry to-morrow and Columbia on Sat? urday. Anderson County is at least two thousand dollars better off by its passing us by without a visit. The trading public generally are better 'pleased with Anderson this season than ever before. They have found out where they can get the most for their cotton and . where .roods of every kind can be procured for the'least money. * There well be a meeting at King's school house in, Vareunes township, of the citizens residin s1 5n that vicinity, on next Saturday evenim; for the purpose of electing a school teacher fornext year. Parents are earnestly requested to be present. Last Monday was indeed a busy day in Anden on, although there was not as much cotton sold as usual. An unusually large amount of real estate was disposed of, all of which brought fair prices. The horse swappers were out in full force The following is a correct statement of the number bales of cotton received at the depot at this place up to November 1: For Sep? tember 1711, October 4238; total, 5947. For the same months last year 5588 bales were receive i, or 359 less than this year. - The mo successful contestants in the ex? amination at Columbia for the Pcabody echohuships hi the Nashville College were John 11. Geer, of Anderson County, and Samuel. Evans, pf Marion. They were given their certificates on the 29th ult. Miss Amanda Bryson, daughter of Mr. J. A. Bryson^ of Broadaway township, re- ? oently picked in one day 325 pounds of cot? ton, and had to carry her baskets a quarter of a mile to have'them emptied. It was a remarkably good day's work for a lady. The relatives and friends of Dr. and Mrs. O. It-1 troyles deeply sympathize with them in the sad loss they sustain by the death of .their lii.tle daughter, Anna, which occurred on Fric'Iay morning last, after a brief and painful illness. She was only eight yeais old. ' On last Friday a valuable milch cow of 'Moss 6; Brown, which was kept in a lot, one side of which rest upon the deep cut of the B. R. R. R. through the village, was ftighter ed and jumped over, tailing a dis? tance of some twenty-five feet, ana killed herself instantly. A veiy pleasant and profitable meeting of the Associate Grange was held at Sandy Springs on the Uth of October. The next meeting w?l be held at Anderson on the 2d of January next, at which essays on im? portant questions will be read by prominent members of the order. Rev. J. K. Mendenhall has been carrying on special religious meetings in the Baptist Church at Williams ton for the past week or ten days, and up to Sunday last twelve per? sons had united with the church. The meetings are still going on, and a deep in? terest is being manifested by a great many. We understand that a young man by the name of Henderson who was put in the calaboose at Pendleton last week for disorderly conduct, set fire to the building and tried to burn it down, but fortunately his efforts were detected in time to prevent bim carrying'out his purpose. He is now in jail. The citizens of Centerville township elec? ted Mesirs. W. B. Watson, J. W. Prevost, T. B. Lie, Robert Moorhead and J. Belton Watson to represent the utock of that town? ship in the convention of stockholder of the Savannah Valley Railroad Company, which is to be held at Lowndesville on next Wednesday, the 12th inst. ' The Stockholders of the Savannah Valley Railroad meet at Lowndesville on next Wednesday, the 12th lust., at 11 o'clock a. m. It is to be hoped that all of the dele? tes will attend, as the organization will perfected at this meeting. We hope vig? orous measures will be taken to secure an early completion of the road. ' There will be a Sunday School celebra? tion in the Baptist Church next Sunday afternoon at 3} o'clock at which several Srizes will be delivered. Addresses will be elivered by Rev. I. W. Wingo, of Pendle? ton, and Mr. L. P. Smith, of Anderson. The Sunday Schools of the town and pub? lic generally are invited to attend. One of our leading business men remarked to us recently that there was no doubt that the business of Anderson from this time on woald be a great deal better than it bos ever been in the past. He regards our advanta? ges as equal to those of any town in the State, ana says that our merchants mean to exert every effort to extend their trade in every direction. Last Friday was the biggest cotton day of the season. About 330 bales were received at the depot, while quite a number were thrown off at different places because the owners of them did not care to wait until they could be weighed. At one time during the day the string of wagons reached from the depot to McCully's Corner, a distance of about six. hundred yards. The schedule of the Greenville and Co? lumbia Railroad has again been changed, and this time to the disadvantage of the towns on the npper end of the road. The train now leaves Anderson at 8.10 in the ' morning, and arrives in the evening at about 7.15, an hour and a quarter later than by the previous schedule. We now get the mall about 8 o'clock. . Mr. D. L. Underwood, of the Brushy Creek township, brought to town on last Monday a very fine sample of corn grown by him on lands upon the head waters of Three-ahd-Twenty creek. Six ears weighed eight pound* and one ounce, or one pound five and a half ounces to each ear. It ought to have been on exhibition at our County fair that every body could see it. At a meeting of the citizens of Varennes township at Flat Rock on last Saturday evening, the following persons were elected to represent said township in the meeting of the Savannah Railroad, to be held at ' Lowndesville on the 12th inst.: R. B. Dean, W. G. Watson, Geo. Long, C. 8. Beaty and J. W. Norris. Alternates?A. Dean. John j A. Reeves, R. E. Thompson and J. C. Hay- 1 ale, The Young Men's Christian Association of Anderson, in accordance with the recom? mendation of .the International Covention ' held at Baltimore lost May, representing one thousand associations, with a member? ship of one hundred thousand, will observe next Sunday end the- week following as a ; season of thanksgiving and of special prayer for God's blessing upon young men, and upon the work in their behalf. The World's Convention at Geneva, Switzerland, (in which eleven nations were represented by 250 delegates,) made a similar recommenda? tion, so that in all ports of the United States this season of prayer will be observed. Hon. B. P. Crayton met with quite a loss by fire one day last week. A closet adjoin? ing his room in his residence near Anderson was discovered to be on fire, and before the flames could be extinguished a handsome overcoat, two suits and other valuable cloth? ing had been consumed or ruined. It is supposed that the fire originated from a spark being blown into the closet while the door was open, and had it remained undis? covered a little longer the dwelling itself could net have been saved. It is really interesting, though not at all astonishing, to witness that constant rush at the popular and well known New York Cash istore. Daily hundreds cannot be waited upon, which is but a small portion of those that are able to procure their im? mense bargains. This house is a living ex? ample of what enterprise, big stocks, low prices, cash system, etc., etc., can accom? plish. Success to you, Messrs. Arnstein & I Kose. f On last Tuesday night, Wm. Norris and his wife, both colored, left their house, on the plantation of Mrs. Glenn, some seven miles south of Anderson, with three small children iocked up in it, carrying, however, their own child with them. While gone ?the honso from some cause took fire, and was so far burned before it was discovered that it wa"} im possible to save it. Tke oldest child managed to escape unhurt, but one ^vas so entirely burned up that only frag? ments of the body have been recovered, and the third was so terribly burned that it is not tbought possible for it to recover. All of the household property of Wm. Norris and foiiy dollars in money were also der stroyed. It was an accident resulting from leaving little children alone with fire, and should bo a warning to all persons to stop this dangerous habit. An infant of only a few days old was found in the second-class car of the East bond train on the Air Line Railroad be? tween Mt. Airy and Toccoa on last Friday night that was evidently left there by a sus? picious looking woman who was seen to enter the train at the first named place. The conductor was at a loss to know what disposition to make of his little passeBger. who was then the ward of the railroad company, and telegraphed to Mr. Foreacre, tho suiierintendent, for instructions, who ordered the little offcast to be left with "Cousin" John Thrasher, at Central, with instructions for him to hold it until further ordered. It is indeed a heartless mother who could thus discard her own child, and leave it to the^ mercy of strangers. The child.'is white. A correspondent of the Charleston News and Courier interviewed a colored man of more than ordinary intelligence, of P ickens County, the other day, and from him re? ceived the information that on the 15th instant he, in connection with about one hundred others and their families, would emigrate to Kansas, whither they thought something good in store awaited them; that the cost of an emigrant's ticket per family was only $5; that land worth three times as much as our lands can be purchased from one and a half to two dollars an acre; that meat can be bought there for three cents per pcund, and corn almost given away; that their forerunners had given them a glowing description of the country, and that their friends, both there and here, had said that they would surely consult their interest by going.

Bethel church, was entirely destroyed by fire on last Monday? and all of its contents were consumed. Mr. and Mrs. Ashley were both from home, and the fire was not discovered until too late to save anything. A collection has been taken up at his place for the relief of the family, and we understand that every citizen has fiven something. Mr. Ashley is one of our est citizens, and is now in the winter of his life, and we hope his friends will contribute as liberally as is in their power to repair in a measure his losses. He has married more of our citizens than any minister in our country, and we are sure that all whom he has joined together in wedlock, who are satisfied with their choice, will now help him. :.Our depot agent is a very mild man, but it was more than he could bear patientlv to be kept v.p all last Saturday night loading cars with cotton; but we don't believe he said what the conductor says he did. No, we can't believe it, for he is a member of the church. Seven freight trains passed down the road Saturday night and Sunday loaded with cdtton.Our fat boy has for some time been cultivating his upper lip with the view of raising a mustache; the stand, how? ever, is not good, but what are there are eery fine.The quarterly meeting of the Methodist Church convenes at this place next Friday, and our citizens can have the pleasure of listening to the able Presiding Elder, Rev. Mr. Pritchard.We are glad to see Mr. W. P. Wright, who was badly hurt some time since, able to be out again. .Dr. T. A. Hudgins has been confined to his room with a malignant form of sore eyes, but was able t?oe in your town on last Monday and add a few more hundred acres of land to his already large posses? sions.Our townsman, Mai.

Parker at Lavonia, Oa.?Ho Gets the Best of his Assailant, who, with two other Men, makes a Bald Into this State In search of Their Victim?Their Disgraceful Con? duct. Fair Play, S. C, Oct. 30,1879. Mb. Editoh : There was quite an excite? ment here last night, caused by an unpro? voked attack upon W. R. Parker, colored, by three men from Georgia?I would rather say that it was an intended attack, as cir? cumstances prevented it. The parties from Georgia were named Sam Knox, the prin? cipal person concerned, and the two Finches, George and Boy. Parker went to Georgia on last Monday, the 27th inst., to sell cotton, when he was accosted at Lavo nia, in Franklin County, by Knox, without any provocation whatever, and kicked about by him. Parker requested him to cease, saying that he did not desire to get into any difficulty with him, and, his re? quest not being noticed, Parker put an end to the fight by choking Knox, and then making his way back to this State. Knox was greatly offended with Parker, and on the night of the 29th came over to this State, accompanied by the two Finches, for retaliation. When the party reached Fair Play they were very much under the influ? ence of whiskey, and acted in a very bois? terous manner. They reached here, I (hink, about 8 p. m. They did not tarry long here, but soon set out to find the res? idence of Bill Parker, but they had not pro? ceeded far before they missednthe road, and called out Tom Parker, colored, who lived near by, to ask the way, but before he could tell them, he was fired at by one of the party, supposed to be George Finch, but for? tunately no damage was done. The negro shut himself up in his house and cried lusti? ly for aid. He appeared to be very much frightened. Messrs. L. L. Jarrard and R. F. Pullen, hearing the noise and shoot? ing, went out, accompanied, by several ne? groes, to see what was up. When they were in a short distance of the negro's house, George Finch fired on one of the ne? groes in the crowd named Sam Pew, but, again, he fortunately missed his mark. He was about to fire on Mr. Pullen, when he was stopped by Mr. Knox. As soon as there was a little quiet, Sam Pew stepped up and accused Finch of shooting at him. Finch replied that he did, and would do so again, in the meantime he was getting ready to carry his threat into execOtion. Pew tohThira to fire, he at the same time firing on Finch; he shot twice at him and took to his heels through the woods, Finch firing at him with a double-barrelled shot-gun, loaded with buck-shot. How the negro es? caped is a mystery, but only one ball passed through his boot leg, inflicting no wound. Finch claims that the negro shot him in the leg;. There was no possible chance of quiet? ing them. Boy Finch somehow disap? peared from the crowd during all the shoot? ing ; I think he was in search of his horse, which had escaped from him. They soon left here to find Bill Parker, who had gone to Anderson that day with a load of cotton. Not finding him at home, they shot his dog and made a search of the premises for him, treating his wife rather roughly, and firing off th??ir guns. They were in Fair Play this morning, anil again visited the house of Parker, and, not finding him, returned to Georgia, saying that they intended to find him and puuisn him. They may return to? night. Warrants have been issued for the three, and the constable will be on the look? out for them should they return. They also threaten Sam Pew. The whole affair is deeply deplored by the community, and the people, I think, will endeavor to prevent any injury to Par? ker or Sam Pew. It is entirely a personal matter, politics having nothing to do with it. I give you the facts as I have gathered them from eye witnesses, and will at pres? ent refrain from saying anything in regard td*the matter, until I can see more clearly how it will end. ? C.

C., October 22d, 1879, of typhoid fever, BENJAMIN FRANKLIN LAWRENCE ORR, sec? ond son of John W. B. and Martha Orr, in the 17th year of his age. He was born June Gtb, 1863, and joined the Baptist Church and was baptised .Septem? ber 26th, 1378, and although but in youth be round Jesus precious to bis soul and continued to love and serve Him, living a zealous Christian life.

And in tho wander? ings of his mind, when perhaps unconscious of his sufferings, he would imaglno himself to be in tbo Church to which he loved to go, and there to join in the worship of that God whom he was so soon to maet beyond tho confines of this world, in the sweet fields of Eden, there to join that great throng around tho throne of God, who hod washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Thus hath passed away in tho bloom of youth one of our noblest and purest young men, beloved by all who knew bim. He died in full triumph of the faith as delivered to tb>3 saints, and was buried in the Siloam Churchyard, leaving many relatives and friends to mourn their loss; and hu now rests "Asloep in Jesus, blessed sleep, From which none ever wakes to weep."
