ing to the amount of $26.
Hon. J. 8. Murray returned home from a
visit to his daughter in Darlington County
on Friday last.
A musk-rat was caught near the depot on

Read the advertisements of J. R. & L. P.
Smith and J. B. Clark & Sons, and when
you get ready for your spring suits give
them calls.
Alfred P. Mattress, a colored man living
on the plantation of Mr. A. A. Dean, of
Varennes township, has killed fourteen
wild turkeys during the past season.
The old Presbyterian Church building
was purchased by Prot W. J. Ligon, and
will be removed to his lot on the street
leading to Rocky River and converted into
^rav^Cung.
The game of fifteen has reached Ander
; son, and now the minds of many are bent
on solving the problem of 14,13,15, in the
arrangement of the last line. Some claim
to have been successful.
The la jv prohibiting the killing of part?
ridges, wild turkeys, &c, is now in force,
and sportsmen should observe its provisions
strictly. It is a good law, and we would be
glad to see it rigidly enforced.
The bridge across Deep Creek on the
Townviile road was completely submerged
by the high water on Monday and Tuesday,
and had it not been a most substantial
structure would have been swept away.
Osbome and Brad berry, who were" con?
victed of manslaughter at the Walhalla

The managera of the election held in
Brushy Creek township on the 6th instant
on the question of subscribing to the capi

County Commissioners.
Rev. W. H. Strickland is at present in
Charleston assisting Rev. Mr. Shuck, pastor
of the First Baptist Church, in a special
meeting, and will be away ten days or two
weeks. His pulpit will be supplied on next
Sunday morning by Rev. L. M. Ayer.
.The stock of spring goods purchased by
Mr. W. A. Chapman on his recent visit to
New York is complete in every department,
and his store presents a beautiful and attrac?
tive appearance. ? He is an enterprising mer?
chant and deserves a liberal patronage.
The dry-weather Christians didn't show
themselves on Sunday last, although we
believe aU the Churches in town were open.
It is truly surprising what a little shower
will keep some professors at home on Sun?
day and what storms they will brave on
Monday.
Mr. M. L. Rose, of tho New York Cash
Store, has returned home. During his pro?
longed stay in New York he bought one of
the largest stocks of spring goods ever
brought to Uiis market. We hope the en?
terprise of this house will be duly apprecia
. ted this season.
The grand spring opening at the New
York Cash Store on Wednesday next, an?
nounced in another column, wUl doubtless
be largely attended by our citizens. This
firm never does'things by halves,, and wiU
make their store look prettier and more in?
viting than ever before.
The Grand Division, Sons of Temperance,
of this State convened in quarterly session
with Broadaway Division at Neal's Creek
Church, in this County, on yesterday. The
attendance of delegates from Divisions out?
side of this County is very small, and the
session promises to be an unimportant one.
Two gentlemen from Abbeville County
were in Anderson on last Thursday with
cotton, and about a month hence we ex?
pect oar contemporary, the Pros and Banner,
will announce that they are "dissatisfied
with Anderson as a cotton market." and
"conld have done better at Hodges or Don?
alds."
There are few persons who go to New
York from this section that know better
how to please their customers in the selec?
tion of goods than Miss Lizzie Williams.
The Ladies' Store is now full of pretty
things, which onr lady readers are invited
in another column to examine before pur?
chasing elsewhere.
The ladles of the Baptist Church have
indefinitely postponed the festival an?
nounced last week for Friday night, inas?
much as the ladies of the Methodist Chnrch
had arranged for an entertainment of a
similar character for the same evening,
which onr citizens generally are most cor?
dially invited to atttend. Every effort will
be made to make the evening pleasant for
those who attend, and in addition to meats,
salads, oysters, etc., strawberries, ice cream
and other delicacies will be furnished.
The very heavy rainfall of the past ten
days has swollen the streams to a great ex?
tent all over the State, and in many sec?
tions, especially in the low-country, con?
siderable damage has been done. We are
pleased to state, however, that as far as our
information goes, very little damage has re?
sulted in this County. Up to Wednesday
morning the Chairman of the Board of
County Commissioners had not been noti?
fied of the washing away of or serious dam?
age to any bridge in the County. With a
couple of weeks of good sunshine now
vegetation of every kind will spring into
life.
A correspondent of the Monthly Record,
an Episcopal paper published at Charleston,
in giving an account of the Greenville Con?
vocation at its recent meeting at this place,
has this to say about Rev. Mr. Gadsden, the
deservedly popular Rector of Grace Chnrch,
which we are sure will be heartily endorsed
by all our citizens: "It gave me pleasure to
find that our good Brother was almost as
acceptable outside his own fold as within it,
the kindest relations existing between him
and the other Protestant ministers of the
place, one of whom assured the writer that
he had "the confidence of the entire com?
munity."
Died, on Saturday morning last, after an
illness of a few hours, little Lida, a bright
and interesting little daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. P. K. McCulIy, of our town. A beau?
tiful and previous child she was given to
gladden the hearts of devoted parents but
for two short years, and then the lisping
voice of childhood and the sprightly life of
her tender years were hushed in death. She
has been taken as one too fair for earth, and
now dwells in a more congenial world where
suffering and death and sorrow will never
come as a blight upon the pure and fair
and good. Her parents have the sympathy
of many friends in their great bereavement.
Anderson and Hodges aa Cotton Markets.
A few weeks ago the Anderson Intelli?
gences with a flonrish of trumpets, an?
nounced that a thrifty farmer of Hodges
had gone all the way to Anderson to sell a
load of cotton, and in a bantering way en?
joined its Abbeville contemporaries from
copying the notice of the fact. Our readers
will remember that we copied the notice,
and then predicted that the citizen of Hodges
would never go back to that market with
his cotton. The "prominent citizens" who
took the cotton from Hodges to Anderson
were Messrs. M. B. Magee, W. P. Magee,
Jesse Magee and A. H. Magee. They now
report their dissatisfaction with Anderson
as a cotton market, and express the opinion
that they could havo done better at Hodges
or Donalds, and say they will never go to
Anderson again with cotton.
The above paragraph is clipped from the
Abbeville Press and Banner; and no doubt
when it had been penned our esteemed
brother of the quill congratulated himself
on having done a most valuable service for
Hodges and Donalds, and one for which he
could certainly never receive due considera?
tion at the hands of their citizens. But
unfortunately for him there are some other
people in this world who know a little more
about the facts in this case than he does,
and which conform more strictly to correct?
ness than those given in the above para?
graph. We do not know from what source
the Press and Banner obtained its informa?
tion about the "dissatisfaction" of the gen?
tlemen mentioned, hut we do know that it
was not reliable, for the publication does
not present the facts, and we hope ample
reparation will be made through the same
medium from which came the injury.
For the especial edification of our friend,
who seems so very anxious about and solic?
itous for the good reputation of his county
towns, we will give a few facts about this
little matter that evidently are not in his
possession. 8everal weeks prior to the visit
of onr Hodges friends to Anderson, the
first named gentleman in the above extract
came to this place with a small lot of cotton,
and was so well pleased with the price he
obtained for it, as well as the low figures at
which he bought goods, that he expressed {bis
determination to come again. True to his
word, as he always is, he did come, and
through his representation of our market
was accompanied by several other gentle?
men of his neighborhood, all of them to?
gether bringing eighteen bales of cotton.
We happened to meet two of the party on
the streets the morning of their visit,'after
they had sold their cotton, and were in?
formed by them that they received a much
higher price for their cotton here than they
were offered at home, and that hereafter
they intended doing a considerable amount
of their trading in Anderson. They bought
large bills of goods of various kinds, and
were as well pleased with their purchases as
they were with their sales, and left for their
homes that afternoon firmly convinced that
Anderson was the best market any where
within their reach ; and to our certain knowl?
edge they have not yet changed their opinion,
the assertion of the Press and Banner to the
contrary notwithstanding. The statement
that "they now report their dissatisfaction
with Anderson as a cotton market, and ex?
press the opinion that they could have done
better at Hodges or Donalds, and say they
will never go to Anderson again with cot?
ton," is not in accordance with the facts, and
was made without authority. We have
been informed by two of the gentlemen
above mentioned that upon their return to
Hodges they could have bough t cotton there
and hauled it to this place at an advance ir
price sufficient to have paid them well for
their trouble. This certainly does not sound
much like they were dissatisfied with our
market, and is positive evidence to contra?
dict the assertion "that they could have
done better at Hodges or Donalds." We
fear onr contemporary was a little over
anxious to see his (prediction verified, and
would admonish him that hereafter when
he makes such statements as the above to
first know whereof he speaks.
We would not have the Press and Banner
or its readers to think that these gentlemen
from Hodges are the only farmers in Abbe?
ville County who come to Anderson to trade,
for such is not the case. In addition to the
large trade our merchants have established
with the farmers about Low n des vi lie, which
increases with each season, they have many
customers in the neighborhoods of Level
Land, Antreville, Due West, Monterey,
Hodges, Donalds, and other sections. One
gentleman who had his cotton ginned in
the town of Donalds last fall brought it to
Anderson and received a cent more to the
pound in cash than he was offered at the
former place.
The foregoing is a plain, unvarnished
statement of facts, and while we are well
aware there is nothing in it that will afford
the Press and Banner any special pleasure,
yet as a matter of justice to Anderson, as
well as to the gentlemen whom it has mis?
represented, we ask that it be republished
in its columns.
Rev. Thomas H. Cunningham.
In our lost issue our readers were informed
of the death of the noble young man whose
name heads this article. The sad event oc?
curred in Charleston, his adopted home,
on Wednesday, the 10th instant, his 33d
birthday, after a lingering illness of several
months from consumption. His remains
were interred in Magnolia Cemetery, in
Charleston on Friday, the 12th instant,
after impressive funeral services in the Sec?
ond Presbyterian Church, of which Rev. Dr.
Bracket is pastor, which were conducted by
Rev. Dr. Girardeau, of Columbia.
Mr. Cunningham was a native of this
County, having been born and reared in the
Robert's Church neighborhood, and was
well known to a large number of our citi?
zens as one possessed of many ennobling
qualities of both head and heart. At an
early age he became impressed with the idea
that the ministry was his appointed life
work, and ever afterwards bent every energy
to the attainment of that high degTee of
culture and accomplishment so necessary
for the successful pursuit of the high call?
ing; and the gratifying results of his faith?
ful and earnest labors are best evidences of
tho success with which his efforts were
crowned. In 1871 he graduated in the
Franklin College at Athens, Ga., and the
fall following entered the Presbyterian
Theological Seminary at Columbia, where he
continued until the spring of 1874, at which
time he graduated. Soon after his gradua?
tion he was called to the pastorate of the
Ebcnezer Presbyterian Church at Charles?
ton, to the flock of which he continued
faithfully to break the bread of life up to
within a few weeks of his death, when his
rapidly failing health rendered further labor
impossible.
Friday last, the day of Iiis burial, was
tho first anniversary of his marriage to
Miss Jeanette F. Stenhouse, a highly accom?
plished and intelligent Charleston lady. It
is strange, indeed, that the anniversaries of
bis birth and marringc should witness his
death and burial.
In many respects Mr. Cunningham was
a superior gentleman, and in his deaMi the
Presbyterian Church has lost a faithful
preacher, the cause of Christianity an earn?
est and zealous advocate, society a most
valuable and esteemed member, and his
family an affectionate husband and father.
He enjoyed throughout his whole life the
respect and admiration of all who knew
him, and carried down to the grave the love
and esteem of a large circle of relatives and
friend?.
"All men must die,
Puiising through nature to eternity."
Farming operations have been considera?
bly delayed by the heavy rains.
Honea rath.
Our Town Council is out of debt and has
n balance in the treasury, and yet Honea
Path has no bar room.Or.r school, in
charge of Prof. H. G. Pweed and lady, is in a
flourishing condition, and the number of
pupils is steadily increasing.Married,
March 11th, at residence of bride's mother,
by the Rev.-Sifley, Mr. John R. Don
nald, of Honea Path, and Miss Fannie Big
by, of Abbeville County.Eight hundred
tons of fertilizers have already been sold
here, and the demand is still heavy.This
rainy weather has been bad on Doctors and
tin peddlers. One of the latter got in the
river below here last week, and came out
minus wagon-body, tinware and a stove,
which he was hauling. All was recovered
except the tinware, which, being mostly
iron, sank and could not be found.Vis?
itors wishing to see the most attractive part
of our town should visit Mrs. Fannie Shir?
ley's hot house. It is filled with a large
collection of the finest variety of flowers.
We always did appreciate a nice boquet.
The wheat crop, notwithstanding the fly,
grasshopper, <fcc, is the most promising we
have seen in several years, and unless it is
injured by bad seasons or the rust, this sec?
tion will make enough for home consump?
tion and some to spare.Considerable
sickness prevails in this neighborhood now,
but it is not of a fatal character.

The announcement that Associate Grange
No. 1 would meet with Deep Creek Grange
on the 3rd Saturday in March instead of
the 4th Saturday, seems to have created
some confusion. The announcement for
the 3rd Saturday was made upon the au?
thority of the Executive Committee, through
its Chairman; and, after consultation, it is
deemed advivable to meet on the 3rd Satur?
day as heretofore announced.

of women and bring joy where sorrow
reigned supreme, is a mission before which
the smiles of kings dwindle into utter in?

province of Dr. J. Bradfield's Female Regu?

has accomplished, is appropriately styled
Wom. n's Best Friend. The distressing

various irregularities of the womb, to which
woman is subject, disappear like magic be?
