thc trip. From Fort Worth to Jncksboro,
their future home, it is about 75 miles, and
at last accounts they had purchased several
wagons and yokes of oxen and were about
to start for that place.
Tho schedule of the Anderson Branch of

to allow more time at thc stations along tho
lino between Belton />nu Walhalla. The
train arrives at the last named place a balf
hour later and loaves a half hour earlier
than usual. It teems that the anthoritics
have arri ved at the conclnsion that lt was
for tho want of sufficient time and not a
haw engineer that the train has not been
running on schedule time.

We were pleased dd ring tho .past *eck to
receive calls from Mr. John MT. Orubbs. of
Jefferson City, Texas, and Mr. S. P. Shaw,
of Prentice County. Mississippi, both of
whom are visiting relatives in this County.
They are natives of Anderson, and removed
from our midst respectively nine and
twenty-one years ago. They are both well
pleased with their adopted homes, and have
no desire to return to this State, although
they think wo havo mnde considerable ad
vancement in tho past ten years. Mr.
Orubbs expressed himself as highly pleased
with the change in our fence system, and

We oro pained to record-the death of Mrs
Fannie Norris, wife of Mr. A. O. Norris, Jr.,
of Belton township, which occurred on last
Monday evening in the 29th year of her age,
after a painful illness from typhoid fever of
six or seven weeks' duration. Mrs. Norris
was a most estimable lady, and was greatly
beloved by her friends and neigh', jrs. She
was a member of Shady Qrovo Baptist
Church, and had ever been a consistent and
exemplary Christian. Her remains were
interred in tho graveyard at Shady Grove
Church or Tuesday afternoon after impres
sive func.?.l services conducted by Revs. D,
E. Frierson and R. W. Burts. A husband
and three children, together with a host of
relatives and friends, mourn her death.
Rev. Wm. Henry Strickland, pastor of
the Anderson Baptist Church, was unani
mously elected at tho recent Baptist State
Convention to tho position of correspond
ing Secretary and General Agent of tho
State Mission Board. It is a position of the
highest responsibility, and its duties de
mand tho emploympnt. of the best talent in
the denomination. The compliment to Mr.
Strickland, therefore, ls very great, and his
selection from among thc ministers to this
important work is a strong testimonial of
high esteem among his brethren. Ho has
not yet signified his intention of accepting
tho call of the Convention to this field-of
labor, and while tho members cf hie Church
recognizo his peculiar and eminent fitness
for the work, yet they aro very anxious that
he should remain with his present charge.
Wo aro pleased to hear that thc Ladies'
Sewing 8oclcty of tho Anderson Baptist
Church will give a series of Dime Lectures,
running through tho winter months. Al
ready quito a number of gentlemen havo
consented to lecture, and wo ? e sure that
the course may bc made an interesting and
extended one. The series will begin with a
lecture from Rev. D. E. Frierson, D. P.,
and the time, place and subject will bo an
nounced in nert week's rv.per. Wo aro
truly glad that our ladies* nave made this
move, for we regard tho platform as a great
educator, and one that the Southern people
have too long neglected. Thc admission fee
is made nominal that the benefits of tho lec
tures may be within the reach of all. We
shall await witl real interest the announce
ment of Dr. Frierson's subject, knowing
that he will treat it in an original and en
tertaining way.
On last Friday afternoon as an extra
freight train wus going from this place to
Belton about one-half of the cars becario
detached os they were going down the grade
at Brown's Crossing. As soon as Conductor
Smith discovered that his car and several
freight cars in front of him were cut loose
from the engine and four or five cars next
tn it, he put on breaks and stopped his por
tion of tue train, and sent a flagman for
ward to warn the engineer, who had crossed
the Broadaway trestle before he noticed that
he wa J palling only a portion of .no train.
As soon os he discovered the fact, however,
he went back in search of the missing cars,
and from some reason or other did not no
tice the flagman and was in a few yards of j
Mr. Smiths train before ho put on breaks,
and as a consequence the butlers on eight
or nine of the freight cars were broken by
the collision. Tho work of carrying the
cars to Belton consumed the greater part
of the night, and the passenger train passed
this placo on its regular trip to Walhalla
between five and six o'clock Saturday
morning.
The order of Good Samaritans of this
placo chartered two cars to go on an excur
sion to Greenville last Thursday, 20th inst.
When the train left, it was understood that
they could procure an additional coach at
Belton, if needed. The cars were crowded,
but good order was preserved until after
leaving Belton. Hero a few drunken negro
rowdies joined tho excursion, and a few
more were added at Williamson. Between
the la?t named ?dace and Greenville the cars
had to bc locked to keen the rowdies in ono
place, so that they would not endanger their
lives, and also that they could not disturb
tho peaceably disposed portion of the ex
cursionists. The train reached Greenville
at 11.80 without any serious mishap. In
the afternoon at 6 o'clock the train left
? Greenville with a very drunken set of ne
groes, and pistols ana knives were freely
drawn, but, fortunately, no one was burt.
It was Impossible for those in charge to keep
order, and the train was given up to tho
Bacchanalians, and they made things hide
ous. By the time Belton had been retched
tho most of the boisterous had been dropped,
and a goodly number of tho cars' seato,
windows and one door wre broken. Beit
Baid to thc credit of the Good Samaritans,
not one of their number was under Uio in
, fluence of whiskey, nor was there but four
or five of Anderson's darkies who m*?9
themselves obnoxious to any ono. When
another excursion is anticipated we udviie
tho appointing of about a dozen special po
lleo to keep order. Mr. Davis Fant, ac>d
as Conductor, and deserves credit for ti e
efficient manner in which he discharged hu.
office. ? ' _

Mit. Ebr?oh! AB wo aro Informed, our
people contemplate a mass meeting In
tho Court House hoxt ealcsday to take
Into consideration the condition of ?
large class of oar citizens who aro in a
nnnuiinr way effected hy the recent de
cision of tho Supreme Court on tho home
si?ad. this decision, os we understand
lt, allows tho exemption or personal
property enumerated lu the constitution
lof 1868, to wlt? "l?oiisebold fur?lt?ro,
i bods end bedding, family library, arms,
! rtarts? vV?goUa, farming implements,
to?la, neat cattle, work an?mala, swine,
goats and sheep, not to exceed Lu value
the aggregate sum of flvo hundred, dol
i larsvand in addition thereto all necessary
wearing apparel, Ac," Where the party
claiming the sanie owns s homestoad in
real estate not to exosed tho value of one
thousand dollars. Tho yearly product of
cold homestead is also exomnted, except
for obligation contracted lu tba produc
tion of ashia,
The personal exemption above stated
ia not allowed to persons not owning a
homestead in real estate, thus donying to
that class of citizens, the poor anet help
less, that protection that tho constitution
intended to confer. It ls a cause of se
rious complaint) ?md must be remedied,
out cltieous, high and low, rich and poor,
mast stand anon terms of equality bo
fore the law. If the constitution ls prop
erly construed they aro not equal, if im
properly construit lt is just aa fatal, for
that which Ls s?pome is supposed not to
be ablo to err. " ith God this is truo,
but how is it with tbe Supremo Court of
tho State? I will not comment upon U.
By reference to tbo INTELXIOBIVORII of
May 10.1877, over tho signature of **M,"
you will find my opinion of Mr. Hamp
ton, who gave away, to a largo extent,
the victory o? 1870, by giving to Willard
the position of Chief Justice over tba
hoads or learned met!, nativo born, and
Democrats. It ls true that tho Legisla
ture elected, but is it not equally true
that Hampton commanded lt. This was
the first blunder committed by tho D?m
ocratie party, and the decision of the
homestead law ls the last. But those
things are done, a large class of our peo
ple Injured, and the only object of your
meeting is to seek in somopeaceable way
relief from tho decision or tho Supreme
Court. I hold that there are but threo
ways that this can bo dono, and present
them for your consideration:
1st. Tho Legislature, now in session,
can givo temporary relief by passing a
stay. law, slaying all executions, ?us.,
against the personal property enume
rated in the constitution, upon the part
ot such cltlrrras in tho State who do not
own real estate.
2nd. For tho Supreme Court to review
supremely its decision on tho homestead
law.
3rd. For tho non-landowner and tenant
to got his landlord to deed him ah half
acre, more or less, of land upon which
his cabin stands, which wilt I take !t;
protect under the decision. M.

SPECIAL NOTICE.
UNDOUBTEDLY the best criterion
that we enjoy the largest trade, and
we refer to it with a mingled feeling
of mide and pleasure, is the feet
that we sold almost the entire im
mense stock of goods that we receiv
ed in the early part of September.
It was hy far tne largest assortment
Dry Goods, Boots, Shoes. Clothing and
Hats, that the people of this and ad
joining Counties had ever seen in An
derson, and it puzzled many how we
could possibly dispose of them all.
But our system----LOW CASH PRI
CES--together with a positive knowl
edge that we can undersell all, has
rendered our task, to sell such quan
tities of Goods, easy beyond all expec
tation.
We are receiving now an entirely
NEW STOCK OP WINTER GOODS,
which we will sell at prices that ad
mit of no competition :
NEW CLOAKS, NEW DOLMANS,
NEW CASHMERES, NEW DRESS GOODS,
NEW PRINTS, NEW DOMESTICS,
NEW CLOTHING, NEW HATS,
NEW BOOTS, NEW SHOES,
NEW CARPETS. NEW BLANKETS.
Thanking the people of this whole
section for their kind patronage, we
beg leave to assure all that we will
continue to foster their best interests,
and upon the broad claims that we
possess as "Headquarters," solicit an
inspection of our NEW GOODS.
