THE INTELLIGENCER. = XOCAIi MATTERS. BRIEF MENTION. Horses and moles are selling from ten to twenty dollars higher than last year. The Carolina Collegiate Institute opened on Monday trith seventy scholars. Read the advertisement of- Mr. J. M. Matthews, of Bel ton, in another column. The unusually warm spell of weather has caused a large amount of fresh meat to spoil. Mr. John H. Clarke has caught in the ?past two weeks about one hundred and B3venty-five partridges. There were services in all the churches in town on Sunday, notwithstanding the un? favorable and gloomy day. H. G. Seed, Esq., of Honea Path, has been'appointed a Deputy Surveyor and -Notary Public for Anderson County. ? Married, January 8th, 1880; by Eev. L. D. ? Whlttaker, Mr. John O. Buchannan and MLaiU. Ms Shaw. 'All of this County. A minstrel tronp, composed of about a dozen of our young men, has been or? ganized, and is now rehearsing for an en., j tertainment.

Martin, of Hopewell township, brought -ua a full grown June apple last week ihat was taken from a tree in-his orchard Christmas week.' A good many of the farmers took advan? tage of the rise in cotton this week and dis i . posed of the remnants of their crops which " they, were holding for high prices. The Town Council of Elberton, Ga., in compliance with the wishes of a majority of the citizens of the town, has raised the license to sell ardent spirits to ?1000. MaTried, on tho 8th inat, byEev. Wm. Capets, D.D., Prof. D.. Allsten DuPre, of I Spartanburg, and Miss Helen C, oldest j daughter, of Bight Ber. P. P. Stevens. Married, at the residence of the bride's j father, Mr. Dav^ Ehbd, December 23,1879, by Rerv. EL N. Hayes, Mr. Wm. Elrod and | Miss Alary Eirod. Ali of this County. Remember tho lecture in Temperance | Hall an Tuesday evening by Sev. Thos. P. Gadsden. His subject, "The Influence of | Woman," should secure a good audience. Married, at tho residence of the bride's father, Mr. Edward Honea, January 8,1880, by Bot. H. N. Hayes, Mr. Robert Hayes and Miss Fannie Honea. All of Anderson County. There Has been quite a demand in Ander? son for dwelling houses thin fall and winter* A dozen neat and comfortable cottages that' could be rented for $75 or $100 would find | ready tenants. We understand that the small grain crops in the County are being injured by insects that have made their appearance, within the last ten days. Some complain of the Hessian fly and others of grasshoppers. We would call the attention of our farm? ers to Sloan Bros, premium list for 1880. Wo know these gentlemen to be perfectly reliable, and take pleasure in commending them to the liberal patronage of our read? ers. .,. Mr. S. Bleckley and wife left Anderson I f, on Sunday morning last for Central, where j ? they took the train for Colliersviile, Tenn., near Memphis, they having been sum honed to' the bedside of a sick brother of | ileckley. - le examination of teachers of the pubUclschools for Anderson County on the 7th, 8tf^and 9th instant*, there were 96 ap <of whom 54 received first grade, ie and 9 third grade, there be- j l'^:V-~$\-"??'.'??"! The City CoVncil of Columbia has levied a tax of $1 on \ very $100 worth of property in the city, which amount is necessary to defray the current expanses of the city gov? ernment. The Vax in Anderson is only 151 cents on the $109. The town assessors are making their ac? customed. assessments of the real estate, and as there has <bcea considerable building in the town since, the last assessment, it is probable tie . aggregate value of real estate will be somewhat) increased. The officers of Anderson Grange for 1880 are: J. W. Non??, W. M.; Wm. McGukin, 0.; B. F. Graytok, L.; James H. McCon neU, C.;. J. W? Thompson, S.; James A. Drake, A. S.; J. W. Daniels, T.; John E. Breazeale, Seer L. H. Seel, G. E. ' Mr. Edward Ashley died at his residence in Martin township on last Sunday in the 76 th year of his age, after an illness of only 24 hours from paralysis. He was a good citizen, an obliging neighbor, a consistent Christian, and leaves a large circle of rela? tives and friends to mourn their loss. At. the annual .meeting of the Young Men's Christian Association on Wednesday .afternoon, 7th instant, the following officers were elected to serve the ensuing year, viz.: L. P. Smith, President; P. K. McCnlly, 1st I Vice President ,'- John W. Todd, 2nd Vice J President; John M. Hubbard, Secretary. The Town Council has refused to pay the claim of Mr. L, O. Busby for $200 damages, which he claims to have sustained by the drowning of two mules in attempting to cross the free ferry on Savannah River, and have employed Messrs. Orr & Tribble to de? fend the case, which will come up for trial at the next term of the Court of Common Pleas. The Methodist denomination of this cir? cuit and station are fortunate in having Eev. S. B. Jones, D. D., re-assigned to the Presiding Eldership of the circuit, and Eev. J. E. Carlisle to the pastoral charge of the Anderson Church. Both of these gentle? men are able and attractive ministers, and are well qualified to sustain and increase the growth and influence of their Church. ' At the meeting of Pomona Grange on the 2d instant, the following persons were elected and installed officers of the same for the ensuing year. viz.: J. W. Norris, W. M.; P. K. Brown, O.v E M. Eucker, L.; A. B. Bowden,8.; M. Berry Williams, A. 8.; Jeptba Harper, W. C.: R. Moorhead, T.; J. E. Breazeale, Sec.; Wm. Davis, G. K.; Mrs. S. H. Norris, C.; Mrs. Belle Burriss, F.; Mrs. I. W. Pickens, P.; Miss Anna Darricot, L. A. S. Col. J. N. Lipscomb, Master of the State Grange, has, upon the request of the Exec? utive Committee, ordered the next meeting of the State Grange to be held in the city of Charleston instead of Columbia on Tues? day, February 3,1880. Col. Lipscomb urges the attendance >of a representative from every Grange in the State, whether active or dormant, and nays7 that the "meeting will bo one of the most important ever held In this State. Questions and matters of vast interest and vital importance to the order, to agriculturists and to the whole country, will be considered, acted upon and The County Commissioners of Abbeville have ordered the Auditor of that County to levy the tax for grading the Savannah Valley Railroad as follows: In Magnolia township, $1,404; In Lowndesville town? ship, $2,175; in Calhoun township, $1,850, making a total of $5,429, or one-third of the whole'tax levied by the voters, for this enterprise. The Commissioners of this County have not as yet taken any steps towards levying the tax on the townships in this County voting for the road, and it is probable they will not do so this year. The Town Council has also decided to let the matterstand for the present. Mr. J. C. Winter killed and brought to town on last Monday the largest and most venomous looking snake that we have ever seen among the natives of this section. It was a little over five feet six inches long, and about five inches in circumference, with a dark, scaly, red back and bright cop? per color beneath. Its head was large and flat, with a neck somewhat smaller, than the head or body. It was certainly a very unusual snake, and made its appearance at a very unusual season of the year. Mr. Winter found it in a sand bar on his place some fifty yards from the river. A great many persons viewed the dead snake but none of them were able to name it. Rev. W. H. Strickland has entered upon the fourth year of his pastorate of the An? derson Baptist Church, and during the three years past he has preached 253 ser? mons, delivered 175 lectures and addresses, and paid 1,820 pastoral visits. During his pastorate the Church has received 33 mem? bers by baptism and 25 by letter. The eon tribulions of the Church and Sunday School for missions during this period have been $1,879.82, and for all purposes com? bined $5.689.90. During this time he has also been the Superintendent of the Sunday School, and has done a great deal of work in it. His record for this period is certainly deserving of congratulation. There will be an adjourned meeting of the farmers of Anderson County in the Court House on to-morrow, Friday, the 16th instant, at 11 o'clock, as signified in ; the call of Col. T. H. Russell, the president, I which was published last week. The Sen? ator and Representatives of this County are' requested to be present, and all persons in? terested in agriculture. This is the meeting which was primarily called for the purpose of considering the phosphate question last winter, and has from time to time held meetings since. The meeting on Friday will probably look after the same subject for the coming year. The Supreme Court has just decided the case' of the State Savings and Insurance Bank of Anderson, S. CL, appellants, vs. Marshall 3. Gaines, respondent, which in? volved the right of a son of a deceased father to claim a homestead exemption in the share of such son in the estate against his creditors. The Court dismissed the appeal, and held that the son can claim homestead exemption against his creditors in-lands which he" inherits in common with others. We have not seen the decis? ion, and therefore cannot tell whether the exemption only applies where the son is living upon the lands or not. In the pres? ent case, the" son was living upon the lands in. which he claimed homestead. We learn that the Atlanta and Charlotte Air Line Railroad Company have offered a premium, of a silver pitcher for the best field of grass, either clover, timothy," blue grass or herd's grass, along the line of their rail? road, grown in any county in South Caro? lina.' The field must be in full view of the ears and contain not less than eight acres. Other railroads .in the State might follow the good example of the Air Line Railroad with profit, inasmuch as their business would be increased in proportion to the in? crease of the productions of the country through which it passes. A premium of $100 in cash would insure a general and lively competition, and besides remunera? ting both the giver of and the competitors for the prize, it would add to the beauty of the country and the pleasure of the passen? gers. _ Our Fair Flay Correspondence. Mb. Editor : It has been so long since you have heard from me, that I guess you think I have deserted you, but, really, I have been so much on the "go" that I have not had much time for business. . I failed to report the murder which was committed in our little "burg" on the night of the 26th ultimo, and which your Town ville correspondent reported. He is so very nearly correct in his statement of facts in the case that I shall say nothing about it, more than it was a most diabolical deed. Whiskey and a naturally bad disposition were the causes of the murder. Bradberry surrendered himself, and is now confined in the Walhalla jail, but Osborne is still at large. Some of the people here and in the Fork have been keeping a sharp lookout for him. So far nothing has been heard from him, though it is thought by some that he is still concealed somewhere in the Fork, which I doubt very much. Osbome owes the gallows his life, and, if caught, he should be made to settle his account with both justice and society, for they demand payment in no gentle terms. Christmas in Fair Play would have been quiet had it not been for the above men? tioned murder, for we are naturally a quiet people. The "young folks tried to enjoy themselves as best they could in this far-off land. There was only one dance in town during Christmas week, but several during the one following, and all seemed to enjoy themselves very much. Mr. Dyer taught a singing school for one week, commencing on the 29th December. I fear that his pupils had too many thoughts of Christmas to learn much. Let us, though, hope otherwise, for good singers are badly needed here for church purposes. On New Year's Day all the farmers tried to do something in the way of work on their farms, in order, I suppose, to claim that they bad made a beginning for 1880. N oth ing especial was noticed on this day but the unusual amount of moving among tenants, and this has still been kept up ever since to some extent Most of us imagine that we would be better off or could do better some? where else than where we are, and I guess that this is one of the causes of so much moving. The majority of persons seem to forget that the place does not make the man, but the man the place, and they are loath to admit any short-comings on their part; but, however, I do not propose to give you a treatise on causes and effects of human actions, &c, but I intend merely to state facts. Our farmers did not come out this winter quite as well as most of them anticipated, but notwithstanding the great drawbacks that they met with last year, they appear to be preparing to go to work with renewed energies this year in order to heal up, as well as possible, the bruises received in 1879, from the drouth and other causes. There has been a good deal of small grain planted, and it is, in a great measure, de? pended upon to help the farmers through another year. The weather has not been at all favorable to the wheat crop, unless it was that portion which was planted late. The grain is looking well, but those who profess to know say that we must have cold weather if we expect to harvest a good grain crop, and they predict that if this warm weather continues there will be very little 'grain harvested. It is impossible to dive into the future, and we should let it alone, and try to make the best possible use of to? day. The fence question has stirred up the bile of-some our people. I hear that one man has gone so far as to quit his church on this account. I wonder if he thinks the fence law has any thing to do with his going to Heaven ? A violent storm never lasts long, and I hope this will be the case with our friend. The majority of the people are in favor of the law?at least the land-owners are. There have been a good many remarks among the citizens of this community on the "Aiken Idea," and I have not found a single man that agrees with him. As it will be too much trouble to get up a new party that will be entirely honest, I think that the people will be willing to relieve Col. Aiken of the responsibility. He will be, if I am not greatly mistaken, at any rate, given an opportunity, after his present term expires, to remain at home, in order to put his great farming knowledge to prac? tical use, and thus he will be enabled to in? struct the farmers, not by theory, but by practice. The Fair Play High School is still run? ning. It commenced this year with forty pupils, and this number will soon be very nearly if not quite doubled. Some of the citizens living in the upper portion of the Fork, just below here, are trying to get up a school somewhere near Mr. Wm. Pollen's. May success attend their efforts, and may much good come out of it. I am glad to learn that your town has done such a fine business the past Fall. I only hope that she may in the future still increase her trade. The up-country is rap? idly increasing in wealth and population, and it is destined to become a thriving sec? tion. We have a good people?industrious and thrifty; a fertile soil and a healthy climate; besides, we have a good Demo? cratic party, that has not outlived its use? fulness, and a people that intend to support that party. What more could we ask? The rest is left to individual perseverance and energy. ' C. Fair Play, & C, January 8,1880. Mr. Editor: A meeting of the citizens and school trustees of Broadaway township was held to-day at Broadaway Academy. The trustees were all present, and also a very large number of our citizens. Much interest was manifested in the efficient management and progress of the free com? mon schools of this township. Col. L. ?. Campbell, chairman of the board of trus? tees, called the meeting to order, and on motion Mr. W. T, McElroy was elected secretary. The chairman stated the object of the meeting, after which Mr. S. M. Gear sub? mitted the following preamble and resolu? tions, which, after full and free discussion, were unanimously adopted: Whereas, the trustees of Broadaway township have invited the citizens to attend this meeting for the purpose of consultation and arranging the best plan for conducting the free common schools for the present year; and, whereas, we highly commend the motive of our efficient board of trustees in thus consulting the patrons of schools, therefore be it Resolved, That the pay of teachers be per capita, 1st, 2nd and third grades, respective? ly, 4, 3 and 2 cents per diem. 2. That no. school be recognized as a free common school unless made up by written articles of agreement, with twenty subscribed scholars. 8. That all pupils shall be entitled to draw public funds between the ages of 6 and 21 years, provided such pupil shall not be the head of a family. 4. That the trustees shall continue the free common schools during the months that will best subserve the interests of a majority of the people. 5. That teachers holding certificates from the County Board of Examiners shall have the right to employ assistant teachers when they consider it necessary. On motion, the Secretary was requested to furnish copies of the proceedings of the meeting to the County papers with the re? quest that they be published. L. E. Campbell, Chairman. W. T. McElroy, Secretary. Broadaway Academy, January lOfA. Anderson Market Reports. The prices current for the following arti cles in this market are: Cotton?Middling, 12c; Good Middling, 121c Corn?90.

It is a condition which should not be trifled with. Immediate relief is the only safe? guard against constitutional ruin. In all coses of suppression, suspension or other irregularities of the "courses," Dr. J. Brad field's Female Regulator is the only sure remedy. It acts by giving tone to the nerv? ous centres, improving the blood, and de? termining directly to the organs of men truation. It is a legitimate prescription, and the most intelligent doctors uso it. Ask your druggist for it. Special Notices. Charleston, S. C, Jan. 2,1880.

From our own experience for the last six years, and from a similar experience on the part of others in different parts of this State and other States, it is found that the youth of the country can be educated more economically and successfully in mixed schools than in schools where the sexes are kept separate, and with as much propriety of manners. Therefore, we propose to con? tinue our School on this plan. A full and efficient corps of Teachers will conduct the exercises of this School in all its departments. For further information apply to W. J. LIGON, President Carolina Collegiate Institute. P. 8.?MUSIC will be taught by Mrs. PINKIND, a well-known and accomplish? ed Teacher. Charges, per Term, $13.33J.

C, propose to open a private School for the Education of Girls. As our house con? tains eleven rooms, we can appropriate two very suitable apartments to the present use and purposes of the School, and accommo? date also a few boarders. Having, each of us, some experience in teaching oar several departments, we are not without good hope of being able to give satisfaction, especially when the matter and method of educating the pupil is ioit entirely to our judgment. The first Session will begin at 9 o'clock a. m. on MONDAY, the 5th day of JAN? UARY, 1880, and continue twenty weeks. Tuition for the Session, in Literary De? partment, $10 to $20, varying between these extremes, according to the studies pursued. Instrumental and Vocal Music, each $20. Use of instrumei $2. Board, excluding washing and lights, $10 a month, payable monthly in advance. Scholars will be re? ceived at any time during the Session, and charged ratably from the day of entering to the close of Session. No deduction for lost time, except in case of protracted, serious illness. The tuition fees must be paid one half at the time the pupil begins, and the other half at the expiration ot the first ten weeks after beginning. Should assistant teachers become neces? sary, the most competent will be promptly engaged. The thorough training of those committed to our care is our earnest pur? pose. LEWIS M. AYER, LILLIE M.
