Ono of our leading business mer. remarked
to us recently that there was no doubt that
tho business of Anderson from tbis time on
would be a great deal better than it has ever
been in tho past. Ho 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 tindo in
every direction.
Last Friday wr,s tho biggest cotton day of
the season. About 330 bales were received
at tho 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 timo during
tho day tho string- of wagons reached from
tho depot to McOuIly's Comer, a distance of
about six hundred yards.

Bon. B. P. Crayton met with quite a loee
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,
tug had been censa m od or ruined. It is
supposed that the fits originated from a
.park being blown into the closet while the
door was open, and had it remained Undis
covered a little longer the! dwelling itself
could not have been saved. .
It is really interesting, though not at all
astonishing, to witness that constant rush
nt the popular and well known New York
Cash Store. 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 ls a living ex
ample of what enterprise, big stocks, low
prices, cash system, etc., etc., can accom
plish^ Success to you, Messrs. Arnstein &
On last Tuesday night, Wm. Norris and !
his wife, both colored, left their house, on
the plantation of Mrs. Glenn, come seven
miles south of Anderson, with three small
children locked up in it, carrying, however,
their own child with them. While gone
the house from some cause took fire, and
was so far burned before lt waa discovered
that it was i m possible to save lt. Tit e oldest
child managed to escape unhurt, but ono
was so entirely burned up that only frag
ment) of the body have been recovered, and
the third was so terribly burned that it ia
not tho/ght possible for it to recover. All
of tho housenold property of Wm. Norris
and forty dollars in money were also der
Btroyed. It was an accident resulting from
leaving little children alono with fire, and I
should be a warning to all persons to ttop ?
this dangerous habit.
An infant of only a few days old was
found in the second-class car ot the East
bond train on tho Air Line Railroad be
tween Mt. Airy and Toceos on last Friday
night that waa evidently left there by a sus
picious looking woman who was seen to
enter the train at thc first named place.
The conductor waa at a loss to know what
disposition to make of his little passenger,
who was then the ward of the railroad
company, and telegraphed to Mr. Foreacre,
tho superintendent, tor instructions, who
ordered tho little offcast to be loft with
"Cousin" John Thrasher, at Central, with
Instructions for him to bold it until further
ordered. It is indeed a heartless mother
who could thus discard her own child, and
leave it to the* morey of strange**. Tito
childes white.
A correspondent of thc Charleston New* I
and. Courier interviewed a colored man of |
more than ordinary Intelligence of Pickcns
County, tho other day, and from him re
ceived tho 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 Hiern ; that
tho cost of an emigrant's ticket per family
was only $5 ; that land worth three times ns
much as our lands can bo purchased from ?
ono and a half to two dollars an acre ; that
meat can be bought there for three cents
per pound, and corn almost gtvon away ; !
that their forerunners had given them a
flowing description of tho country, and
hat their friends, both there and here, had
said that they would surely consult their
interest by going.

Tho dwelling bouse of Rev. Wilson Ash
ley, who lives near Mt. Buihel church, was
entirely destroyed by fire on last Monday,*
and all of its contenta 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 boen taken
up at his place for the relief of the family,
and we understand that every citizen hos
given something. Mr. Ashley is one of our
best citizens, and is now in the winter of his
life, and we hope bia fiends will contribute
as liberally as is in their power to repair in

of our citizens than any minister in our

FAIR PLAY, 8. C. Oct 80,1879.
Ma. RcifoB : There waa quite au excite
ment here hut Dight, caused by an unpro
voked attack upon W. ll. Parker, colored,
by three men from Georgia-X would rather
say that lt waa an intended attack, as cir
cumstances prevented it. The parties from
Georgia were named Barn Knox, the prin
cipal person concerned, ard the two
Fin ches, G eor?e and Boy. Parker went to
Georgia on last Monday, tac 27th inst., to
sell cotton, wheo he was accosted at Lave
nia, in Franklin County, by Knox, without
any provocation whatever, and kicked
obout by him. Parker requested him to
cease, saying that he did not desire to get
into any difficulty with bim, and, bis re
quest not being noticed, Parker put an end
to the fight by choking Knox, and then
making bit way back to this State. Knox
was greatly offended with Parker, and on
the night of the 20th came over to this
State, accompanied by the two Finches, for
retaliation. When the party reached Fair
Flay they were very mach under the Influ
ence of whiskey, and acted In a very bois
terous manner. They reached here, I
think, about 8 p. m. They did not tarry
long hero, but soon set out to find the res
idence of Bill Parker, but they lind not pro
ceeded far before they missed* tho road, and
called out Tom Parker, colored, who lived
near by, te ask the way, but before ho could
tell them, he was fired at by ono of tho
party, supposed to bo Goorgo Finch, but for
tunately no damage was done. The negro
shut himself up in his house and cried lusti
ly for aid. Ile appeared to be very much
frightened. Messrs. L. L. Jarrara and
II. 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 ono of the ne
groes l.i the crowd named Sam Pow, but,
again, hs fortunately missed his mark. He
waa 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 tho meantime he was getting ready
to carry his threat into execution. Pew
told'him to fire, he at the same time firing
on Finch : he shot twice at him and took to
his heels through tho woods, Finch firing
at him with a double-barrelled shot-gun,
loaded with buck-shot. How tho negro es
caped is a mystery, bat only one ball passed
through bia boot leg, Inflicting no wound.
Finch claims that the negro shot him In tho
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 And Bill Parker, who bad gone
to Anderson that day with a load of cotton.
Not finding him at home, they shot his dog
and mado a search of tho premises for him,
treating his wife rather roughly, and firing
off thefr guns. They were Tn Fair Play this
morning, and again visited tho houso of
Parker, and, not finding him, returned to
Georgia, saying that they intended to find
him and punish him. They may return to
night. Warrants have been issued for tho
three, and the constable will be on the look
out for them should they return. They
uko threaten Sam Pew.
The wholo affair is deeply deplored by
tho community, and the people, I think,
will endeavor to prevent any injury to Par
ker or Sam Pow. It is entirely a personal
matter, politics having nothing to do with
it. I give you the facts as I have gathered
them from oyo witnesses, and will at pres
ent refrain from Baying anything in regard
tdthe matter, Until I can see more clearly
how it will end. * C.
