There Is but one Radical paper in South Carolina, the Sea Island News, published at Beaufort. It is in favor of the Republicans making nominations for County officers in all of the lower Counties, and can see no reason why they sbonld not succeed. The Temperance Standard has suspended. It has been published by Maj. George W. Anderson at Williamston for the past two years, but as the temperance people of the J State gave it such a meagre support, he has | been forced to discontinue its publication. There is a little piece of joetry on our J fourth page this week that is full of good advice to girls, and all of our girl readers would do well to read and re-read it most carefully. If you do not recognize the J value of the admonition now, there, is a day coming when you will. The Southern Comic Opera Company will appear in Anderson this (Thursday) even? ing for the first time, and will render the amusing oDera "Cox and Box," besides giving selection^ from other comic operas. The Company is composed entirely of j Southern talent, and is said to give tine entertainments. See advertisement. Some of the colored men of the town have organized an Athletic Club, and gave an entertainment on last Friday evening, which is said to have been very good. They intend giving another entertainment on Friday evening at the Blue Ridge Yard, and will donate the proceeds to the build? ing fund of the Presbyterian Church. The Board of Directors of the Atlantic & French Broad Valley Railroad have made application to the County Commissioners for a sufficient tax levy on all the taxable property in the townships of Belton and Williamston to raise one-third of the amount subscribed in those townships to the said Railroad company, and the Com? missioners have accordingly instructed the Auditor to make a levy of seven mills in addition to the regular State and County taxes in said townships, which will make their tax levy this year 1GJ mills.

John McFall, dated at Camp Russell, Atlantic & French Broad Valley Railroad, near Easley, April 10th, says: "Average of 40 men on the work from 9 o'clock Monday morning to 12 in. Saturday: 1500 feet of line graded. Week's work not a fair test, as the men, be unaccustomed to hard labor, are suffer? ing with sore bands and tired muscles. General condition improving daily. Will be able to accomplish much more in the future. About six of the convicts will have to be returned, they having chronic com? plaints not known of at the~time of delive? ry, which render them unfit for work. General satisfaction prevails, and the entire gang are in good spirits." Pursuant to a call of the Town Council, a citizens' meeting was held in the Court House on Tuesday night to consider the advisability of the town purchasing a chemical fire-extinguishing apparatus, con? sisting of one engine, two small extin? guishers, with hose, ladders, axes, buckets, and offered for $1,000. The meeting was slituly attended, and veiy few persons present expressed any opinion one way or the other, but tbone who did express their opinions thought the outlay would be too great for the advantages secured in the way of increased facilities for protection of prop? erty against destruction by fire, and the meeting adjourned without taking any de? cided action, but from what was said the Council understood that the purchasing of the apparatus was not favored. After the rain of last Thursday morning, with which a small amount of snow was mingled, the weather grew gradually colder until Sunday night, when it was evident, that all vegetation susceptible to injury by frost would be killed, and on Monday morning there was hardly a vestige left. Such garden vegetables as beans, Irish po? tatoes, cabbage plant", etc., and fruits of every kind that were in bloom were almost c.itirclv destroyed, while a few putclies of very forward small grain were slightly in? jured. The destruction of the fruit crop is pretty general all over the County, though we understand that in some sections there is a small amount left. This is the second year consecutively that the fruit crop has been destroyed by late frosts, the loss of which to our people it would be hard to es? timate in dollars. Mrs. Annie M. Sloan died suddenly on Sunday evening last at the residence of her husband, Maj. Benjamin Sloan, at Wal? halla. Mrs. Sloan was a daughter of the late Capt. John Maxwell, and was a highly accomplished and estimable lady, whose amiable disposition and many noble attri? butes of character conspired to render her an ornament to society, beloved and ad? mired by those who surrounded or were acquainted with her. To a beautifully modest and retiring nature she added the higher charm of a perfect sincerity and the grace of a true woman. A devoted wife, a fond and affectionate mother, and a loving friend, "she yet possessed the higher and more enduring virtue of a deep piety and abiding faith in Him whose ways are above our ways and in whose counsels there are no mistakes. Though her remains sleep the long sleep in the Baptist Church Ceme? tery at Pendleton, beside loved ones who had gone before her, yet she leaves a mem? ory that will often come to comfort with sweet pleasure the anguished relatives and i friends who mourn the early death of one so pure and beautiful and good. Mr. Joseph Skelton, a young man not quite 19 years of age, died at his father's residence, in Anderson County, on the 25th March. His illness had been for nearly a year a gradual wasting of physical strength by some form of dyspepsia, until that strength was exhausted. Yet, his mental strength increased as his interest in reli? gious subjects increased, and towards the close of his life that interest took the shape of a confident, a hopeful anticipation of a better life. He calmly and peacefully con? templated the prospect before him as one hopefully contemplates the scenes of the land to which he is to emigrate. His rela? tives could scarcely have wished to detain him, and the grief of a tender mother was quieted with the belief that his departure W?S his gain. The death of Mr. Skelton has left a deep impression upon the young people of his community, some of whom, as well as those of his own family, he ten? derly and solemnly addressed on the subject of their religious duties. It was to them a voice from the borders of the world to come, and the speaker, one of their num? ber, taking his stand on the brink of time to address them. Let them not forget that solemn address. At a meeting of the Executive Board of the Baptist Convention of this State, held in Columbia last week, Rev. W. H. Strickland, of this place, was elected Cor? responding Secretary of the Board and General Agent of the-State Mission work. It will be Temerabered that he was elected to this position by the State Convention at its meeting at Aiken last November, but for good -reasons the office tendered was not accepted, and to the pleasure of his congre? gation and our citizens generally he decided to continue in charge of the Baptist Church here. Since that time the efforts of the Board to secure the services of a competent and efficient man for the place has been unsuccessful, and as Mr. Strickland was again called to the work, and urged by the Board to accept, he decided to accede to its demands, and has accordingly forwarded his letter of acceptance; and on last Sunday morning tendered his resignation as pastor of the Baptist Church, greatly to the sor? row of his entire congregation. He has been in charge of the Church at this place since Januar}', 1877, and has endeared him? self to the membership of his Church, who recognize in hkn so many noble and excel? lent qualities. Being naturally an active, vigorous and untiring worker for whatever cause he espouses, he will doubtless make a most successful and popular Agent, and do a great deal towards establishing and building up the cause of the Master in the destitute and waste places in South Caro? lina. His resignation as pastor will take effect June 27th, and he will enter upon his new office on the 1st July. The South Carolina PrcBbytery. The meeting of this body, which con? vened in Williamston on Wednesday even? ing of last week, remained in session through Sunday, the last day being given entirely to devotional exercises. The at? tendance of delegates was much larger than usual, there being very few churches in the bounds of the Presbytery not represented, and the deliberations most harmonious and pleasant throughout. The introductory sermon was preached on Wednesday night by Rev. J. 0. Lindsay, D. D., retiring Moderator, to a large and ap? preciative congregation, and on Thursday morning the Presbytery was regularly or? ganized by electing Rev. W. F. Pearson Moderator, and Col. J. J. Norton, of Wal? halla, Assistant Clerk to Rev. S. L. Morris Stated Clerk. The routine business of the session was disposed of with the usual promptness, and general good feeling pre? vailed during the entire meeting. Rev. A. E. Norris, formerly of this Coun? ty, but who has been in charge of the Pres? byterian Church at Johnston's, in Edge field County, was regularly ordained an evangelist by the laying on of hands. Messrs. David E. Fricrson and J. L. McLin, of this County, and Mr. Wm. Nevill, of Walhalla, were licensed, and during the meeting preached their trial sermons, which are said to have been very fine efforts. The report on Foreign Missions showed an increase of contributions to that cause by the churches in the Presbytery of about G7 per cent., which was very encouraging indeed. Interesting conferences were held on Saturday and Sunday nights on the sub? jects of Foreign and Domestic Missions re spoctively, and a new interest awakened in the causes. The Presbytery adjourned formally on Saturday night to meet with the Presbyte? rian Church at Cokesbury on the Wednes? day before the 3d Sunday in September next. All of the churches in Williamston were.occupied by ministers of the Presby? tery on Sunday morning and evening. Anderson Market Reports.

Something NewUndkrTiieSun.?A new era is dawning upon the lifo of woman.? Hitherto she lias been called upon to suffer the ills of mankind and her own besides. The frequent and distressing irregularities peculiar to her sex have long been to her the "direful spring of woes unnumbered." In the mansion of the rich, and in the hovel of poverty alike, woman has been the con? stant, yet patient, victim of a thousand ills unknown to man?and these without a remedy. "Oh, Lord, how long!" in the agony of her soul bath she cried. But now the hour o! he redemption is come. She will sull'er no more, for Dr. J. Brad field's Female Regulator?Woman's Best Friend ?may be relied on to cure all thediseasca peculiar to women. Try it and he convinced The Snvannah Valley Railroad. Pursuant to the call of President James M. Latimer, the Board of Directors of the Savannah Valley Railroad convened in tho Temperance Hall in Anderson on Wednes? day morning at 11 o'clock. President Lat? imer called the Board to order, when it was ascertained the following members were present: President J. M. Latimer, W. W. Humphreys, J. W. Norris, J. T. Barnes, R. P. Clinkscalcs, W. J. Milford, S. J. Hester, T. J. Hester and W. B. Watson. Mr. J. E. Brcazeale acted as Secretary of the Board. President Latimer stated that the object of the meeting was to take into consideration the propriety of collecting the taxes and of having a survey of the route made during the coining summer. He stated that Gen. ?Bradley, of the Greenwood and Augusta Railroad, had given him an estimate of the cost of 100 convicts for one year, which was $9,014.90, which did not include the cost of medicines &C, and that the average cost per mile of the road gradeO was about $600. He had learned that the Hartwell Railroad, in Georgia, had been graded by hired labor at a cost of an average of about $300 per mile. Ho thought that the bed of this road could be graded by hired labor at a cost of not more than $000 per mile. Gen. Humphreys then introduced the following preamble and resolutions: Whereas, by a Joint Resolution of the General Assembly of South Carolina, ap? proved February 20,1E80, the President and Board of Directors of the Savannah Valley Railroad, or a majority of them, arc au? thorized and empowered to direct the col? lection of the taxes voted to the said Sa? vannah Valley Railroad in Anderson and Abbeville Counties; and whereas it is be? lieved the amount subscribed is amply suffi? cient to grade said Road, with hired or con? vict labor. Therefore, Resolved, That the collection of the first instalment of said subscription be proceeded with forthwith, commencing on the first day of May now next ensuing, and contin? uing until the 31st of October next, without the imposition of the usual penalty for non? payment if paid on or by the said 31st of October next. Jtcsohed, That the Auditors of the Coun? ties of Anderson and Abbeville, and the Town Treasurer of the Town of Anderson be, and they are hereby, authorized to assess upon the property of tho Town and Town? ships subscribing to said Savannah Valley Railroad such per centum as may be neces? sary to pay the first instalment, as provided in the charter of said Road ; and the Audi? tors of Anderson and Abbeville Counties, as aforesaid, are authorized to turn over to the County Treasurer of their respective Counties the books containing said assess? ment, so soon as the same is made and completed, to wit, on or by the first, day of May ensuing. Resolved, That the County Treasurers of Anderson and Abbeville, and the Town Treasurer of the Town of Anderson, are authorized to collect the said first instal? ment of the subscription to the Savannah Valley Railroad, as provided in the charter of said company, commencing as herein provided on the 1st day of May and con? tinuing until the 1st of October next; and in collecting said taxes the County Treas? urer, or Town Treasurer, as the case may be, shall deliver to the taxpayer a special receipt therefore, which shall express that the amount stated therein is the tax for said Rrailroad. Pesolved, That a corps of engineers, be organized at once, and authorized to pro? ceed with the survey of said Road so soon as funds sufficient nave been paid in to de? fray the expenses of said survey. He thought a sufficient amouut of money could be raised by the means designated to secure a survey of the route, and to employ a sufficient number of hired laborers to commence the work as soon as crops are laid by. If the Company meant business it was tiiue something was being done, and if work was delayed much longer the enter? prise might as well be abandoned. Col. J. W. Norris thought the Board ought to be very careful in tnkingaction on the matter of collecting taxes, and was op? posed to the collection being made this year. He did not think it would do to commence the work of grading the road bed with hired labor, and preferred to defer the collection i of taxes until next year. Capt. J. T. Barnes favored the resolutions, and thought work should be commenced as early as possible, as it had already been delayed too long. He was prepared to vote for the collection of taxes at once, and thought the amount subscribed amply suf? ficient to complete the grading of the road bed. He hoped the resolutions would pass. Gen. Humphreys considonsd that a great deal depended on the action of the Board at this meeting, and expressed the opinion that in less than three months from the day work was commenced on this Road steps would b? taken to extend the line from Anderson to Easley, making connection at the latter place with the Atlantic & French Broad Valley Railroad. He thought the resolutions should be adopted, that the survey should be arranged for at once, and as soon as practicable the work of grading the road bed should be commenced. Mr. R. P. Clinkscales favored the resolu? tions, and thought it important that as lit? tle time be lost in commencing the work of grading as possible. Dr. W. J. Milford stated that he would vote for the resolutions because be repre? sented Hall township, and he knew that a majority of the citizens of that township were in favor of going ahead with the en? terprise. He was willing to grade five miles of the route himself rather than have the enterprise fail. Mr. S. J. Hester said that he promised j his neighbors before he left home that he would bring the Road back with him, and hoped sincerely that the resolutions would pass. Col. Norris moved to amend the 4th reso? lution so as to require the surveyors to make an estimate of the cost of both a nar? row and broad gauge road. He favored making the road a narrow gauge, and spoke at some length upon the relative merits of the narrow and broad gauge roads. Mr. S. J. Hester wanted a broad gauge road, as all of the roads with which it was to connect were broad gauge. The amendment was adopted. On motion of Capt. Barnes, the resolu? tions were adopted as a whole. Maj. T. B. Lee was then introduced to the Board, and stated that the preliminary survey of the entire route could be made at a cost of about $500, and that it would con? sume about one month of time. He stated at some length the relative advantages of the narrow and broad gauge roads, and thought that a narrow gauge would answer the purposes of the proposed line. He favored going to work at once. On motion of Gen. Humphreys, the Pres? ident was instructed to invite estimates from engineers of the cost of a survey of the entire route, and that the Board meet at Carswcll Institute on Saturday, 8th of May, at 12 o'clock, to consider the bids. The Secretary of the Board was ordered to serve a copy of the resolutions upon the Auditors of Abbeville and Anderson Coun? ties. Tho Board then adjourned._ Special Notices.
