Tho cansos enumerators for thia County held a meeting in town on Saturday, and from a general interchange of viewa as to the duties required of them derived consid erable information and benefit. Mr. Dave Humphreys has been threshing the small crops of wheat about town tho past week. We learn tho yield is not near as good as last year, though quite aa good as was generally expected. > Edgefield has thirty-one candidates in tho field, eight of whom would Uko to be Sheriff. We aro afraid by tho time of the.elcction there won't be enough. disinterested people In the county to connt the votes. Mr. S. D. Deal died at his home in Wil liamston, after a brief illness, on last Thurs day night, and was buried the following afternoon. He was a good citizen, and vas highly esteemed by his neighbors. The corps of engineers engaged in survey ing tho Savannah- Valley Railroad had got ten six miles below Lowndcsviiie np to Saturday night. The corps Is making un usually rapid progress in ita work. The cooks and washerwomen orb quitting their work about town and going to the country to hoe cotton, as that business ls the most profitable ; and there Is abont to be a panic among the housekeepers. The Town Clerk has collected over six hundred dollars of the Savannah Valley Railroad tax np to this time. There re mains but twelve days more in which tr pay in the town without tho penalty. Mr. J. A. Wiles, of the Corner, ono of the most enterprising and successful young farmers in tho County, sent us two very fine stalks of cotton on Saturday, on both of which there were well-formed squares. Maj. John R. Williams and wife, of Cen tral, spent several days In Anderson during the past week. They have many friends in our midst who will bo pleased to know that they are well pleased with their new home In reply to a letter from one of the census enumerators for this County, the Supervisor says that lands must be enumerated by the enumerators for the district in which they lie, regardless of where their owners reside There aro about forty-five paupers at present ir; tho County Poor House, all of whom are satisfied with tho manner in which they aro cored ihr.

Tho County Treasurer has been very- busy, the past three or four days balancing up his books after tho collection of tho first instal ment of State and County taxes, but ia not yet prepared to give us tito amount collec ted. We will publish next week a long and excellent essay cn frc.it c?lture fren *he pen of Col. W. S. Pickens, and we hope it will receive a careful perusal by all of our readers. It was received too lato for this kauo. Married, on Wednesday, the 26th Instant, at the residence of the bride's father, by Rev. J. 8. Murray, Mr. Francis W. Hahn, of Greenville, S. C., and Miss Florence G., eldest daughter of Mr. Jesse L. Fant, of A-iderson. Those of our citizens who labored under the Impression that there would be no pen alty on the unpaid Savannah Valley Rail road tax will bo surprised, if they don't mind, when they go to make a final settle ment with the County Treasurer in th?, fall. We are in receipt of aft Invitation to at tend tho final celebration of the Calhoun and Preston Literary Societies, Wofford College, on June 14th and 15th. An inter esting programme has been arranged, and will be carried oct, consisting of debates, addresses, etc. . We are requested by some of onr towns men whose growing crops have suffered serions damage from being trespassed upon by cattle allowed to run. at large, to warn tho owners of such stock against a repeti tion of these depredations. Wo have no doubt that the stock committing the depr* dations were at largs purely by accident, and not from any disregard of their own en for their neighbors' crops. We are inclined to think that all of our citizens aro dispos?e to observe the requirements of the steel law, and hopa that when stock of any kine escape irom enclosures and trespass that for heorance will be ctcrcLscd, The Pataleteo Rifles will hold a meeting in tho offl?e of Capt, John E. Alien, this (Thursday)' evening at 0 o'clock for tho purpose of reorganizing and electing officers for the Company for the ensuing year. A full attendance of th? tr ?rabers is desired, aa ?ell as the presence of any others who may wish to Join tte? Company. "The fence law, where it is adopted, will, by keeping the stock out of tho woods, give the blackberries and other wild fruits a Ano chance to grow."-Ooiwnbla Register. And by keeping the boga out of the old fields, will give tbe rabbits, partridges, etc., a fine chance to multiply. It will add as much to your pleasures as to your profits. Try lt. The Phoenix Iron Works at Columbia, 8. C., are well known as being among tbe best and moat reliable manufactories of the kind In the South, and being a home enter, prise is eminently deserving tho patronage of our people. See advertisement in an other column, and then call on Messrs. Watson & Son for prices and other particu lars. Our young friend Gaillard Brown has been placed in charge of the office of the. Western Union Telegraph Company at Greenville. His principal duty will be to receive the press dispatches, and will no doubt evince as high degree of proficiency in thia office as ho has in all others ho bsa filled. The people of Greenville will find him exceedingly polite and accommodating under all circumstances. Hero is what the Atlanta (Go.) Cbnrtitu t ion says cn thc subject of round dances : "A young man watched the wallies at a certain dancing school fer some time last night, and then asked somebody to tell him why lt was that tho young ladles who sub mitted to hugging in public would not per rnit'it in private, whereupon a bright fellow remarked that that had not beer, his expe rience." Food (or thought! Thc announcement made last week that there would be an excursion from Green ville to Cincinnati on tho occasion of the mooting of tho National Democratic Con vention for $16 was, we have been in formed, a mistake. The excursion la from Atlanta, Ga., and not from Greenville. The announcement was made on informa tion received from a private letter from a gentlenan of tho last named city, and which wc had c ?c. xviuuil :\J ut. ICIO TT OJ > entirely trustworthy. Wo propose by our next issuo to have all tho particulars of the matter that can possibly be obtained, which will be given tho public through our col umns. Mr. J. 8. Murray, Jr., who has been en gaged since September last as principal of a flourishing school at West Springs, Union County, is now at home, where he will remain for some time. Ho graduated in Furman University two years ago with the degree o.' A. M., the highest degree tho University could confer, and Iras since been applying himself assiduously to tho study of the languages, and by dint of energy and perseverance, strengthened by a laudable ambition, has familiarized himself with nine distinct languages besides that of bia mother tongue. It ia not often that we find a young man in this day and generation who places as high an estimate on educa tion as does Mr. Murray, and who is will ing to make every other object subserve this end. The article in our last issue on tho sub ject of "Means' Grass," from tho pen of on esteemed correspondent, seems to have at tracted conpiderablo attention, and wo aro right glad inst it bas. From specimens of tao grass left in our office, wo are inclined to think it would be found very valuable by oar farmers as a forage, suitable especial ly for feeding to stock in a green state. It will grow and flourish on ordinary land, and can be cut down three or four times in one season, and, as for cultivation, it re quires nothing but tho sowing. O r cor respondent justly cautions his brother far mers about devoting any considerable amount of land to its cultivation, as it is likely to monopolizo in future the ground on which it Is sown. But with proper cau tion we see no reason why every farmer might not devote at least, from a half on acre to an acre of ground to its cultivation without allowing it to spread to other por tions of tho form. A Slatter of Interest to Farmora and Me chanics. At the last regular session of tho Legisla ture an Act wai passed creating an Agri cultural Department, and Col. A. P. Butler was elected Commissioner of tho Depart ment. .This action on ino part of our law makers was an Important recognition of thc rights bf tho agricultural classes, and as it was moi-o for tho development of the agri cultural and mechanical resources of tho State than for any other interests that the Department was created, it Is eincexely hoped that ?li farmers und mechanics par ticularly will co-operate with the Commis, stoner in his efforts to maka the Depart ment a credit to tho State and formers and mechanics alike. From a circular recently issued by the Commissioner, wo make tho fallowing ex tracts : We will soon have, at the rooms of the Commissioner In Columbia, cases or Apart ments for each County, and it is our desire to exhibit the products of every County: and wo request that every citizen will ieci that this. circular Is 'directed especially to him end aid the Department by all means in his pov tr. Tho Commissioner will neg lect nothing that will advance the agricul tural and mechanical industries of tho State, and hs confidently relics upon tho people to sustain him. We desire to hnvo samples o' the products of every County. They wi'i bo carefully arranged in tho proper cases and plainly marked ffith '.hu i.;ras of County and con tributor. We .want specimens of wheat, corn, oats, pens, rye, barley, rico, buck wheat, Jlax, peanuts, tobacco, cot ton, mll icv, ci?Vc? ?M?? Q.U33C?, uiicu ii Uli, ciiufus, molasses, wines, woods, minerals, stone, marble, any article used for agricultural or mechanical purposes manufactured In tho Stave, native birds, insects, andt In short, anything and everything that will show tho wealth of tho County, aid and encourage homo manufactures and provo interesting to visitors. The importance of having such an ex hibit at tho capitol ia apparent. It will bo , our best advertisement in showing our won derful resources, and more can be learned in thU way, by. strangers seeking informa tion, in a day than Tn a year's travel. - It will be a fins medium of exchango, pur cbrwj or sale of seeds to oar own people, aii? in learning more of our capabilities. X earnestly appeal to yon to sid mo in thia ?feat work I./ sending any article for exhl itlon that you think would be st all intcr ? eating. They should be plainly marked and addressed to A. P. Butler, Commis sioner of Agriculture, Columbia, 8. C. Tho Department will pay all expenses of shipping. A Mew Effort of tba Y. M. O. A. At the late meeting of the State Conven tion of the Young Men's Christian'Associa tion, the 8tate was divided into six districts, and a resident chairman appointed for each district, whose duty lt Is to Interest Chris tian people In tho work of the Associations. Mr. H. G. Scndday, of this place, is tho chairman of tbe fifth district, which Is i competed of Anderson, Oconeo and Pick . ens Counties, A better appointment could , not have boen made, as Mr. Scudds. ls an i earnest and mott zealous worker, and it I thoroughly posted as to the needs and rtv I quircmcnts nocsuory to maka the work of : tho Associations more efficient and effect! ve. I One of tho dutiec of the chairmen will be . to held a district meeting once a.year In each of their districts. Th? Extorsion to Piedmont. Ai will bo Been from i'.ocarJ published in this ba?o, every necessary arrangement for Uie p?enle excursion to Piedmont bu been made by the committee appointed by the Temp?ranos Division for that purposo, get your baskets, etc., ready for the occasion, and now nothing remain* to be done but to Next Thursday is the day appointed for the excursion, and the low rate of fare Axel by the railroad authorities will doubtless in sure a large crowd. Good order will be preserved, and ladies and children will be mode as comfortable a? possible. The dis tance to Piedmont ts about 25 miles, and excursionists will bare flic orslx hours In which to see the sights of tm town.- Ooh Hammett assures the committee that a cor dial reception awaits tho Division and its friends. _ List of Jaron?.

The postoffice department at Washington has recently located, in ccoordance with petition? from citizens of this County, two very important mail routes leading from this place. One of them la tc Eaaley, on which two trips a week will be made, by the following placea, at each of which Ibero will be a poa tomeo: Neal's, Pie.rctawn, Welkin's Mill, Equality, Hamilton'?, Hcl lams', to Easloy, and return by Bogga', Major's Shop, Bryan's Milt, Larkin New ton's, Five Forks, Eskew's, Centreville Milla, Burrlss' to Andereon. This route waa located several years ago, bat for como reason or Other was never established. Tba other route is to Hones Path, oil which ono trip a week will bo made, by tba following places, at which ornees will bo established': Prevost's Mill, Neal's Crock, Cray renville, to Honea Path ; return by Shirleys Store, intersecting tito main lineal Provost's Mill The entire distance or tho first named route ir, Si m S io, and that or tbs second 34 miles? f It Is very desirable that these routes be es-~ tablished at on early day, ns postofflcea are very much needed for tho accommodation and convenience of citizens living In tho communities through which they aro loca ted. _ Shod hy the BSUUonf. Tho people of this section will be delighted to know that efforts aro being mado to Flock tho havannah River with shod, and that a fish way has been placed in the dam across the River at Angosta, Ga., so os to allow the free passage of any number of shad to the npper waters of the stream. . Dr. H. H. Carey, Fish Commissioner Of the State of Georgia, has appropriated $50 of the money in bin hands for tho purpose of supplying tho rivera of Georgia with shad to tho object of placing shad spawn in the River above the Locks at Augusts, to which sum tho city of Augusta hos added $50 dollars more, and Col. A. P. Butler, Flab Commissioner of this State, bas been written to and re quested to make a similar appropriation for the aame purpose, to which it is aincerely hoped ho will make a favorable response. The combined amount will be sufficient to enable the agent appointed by Dr. Carey to piece 1,000,000 shad spawn -in the River above the dam at Auguste, end this will be done immediately. It is a well knov.o fact that ?bad return annually to the waters where they were hatched. In a few years, therefore, the upper waters of the Sarah nab will bo stocked, at the proper season, with many millions of fine shad, sufficient to Bupply the entire country adjacent to the stream. . Answer Folly ?nd Promptly. The census enumerators started out on Tuesday, and are how plying their numer ous questions with vigilance, to which the people should give f?llend prompt answers. They must visit each family in every house sv.d take down tho name of every man, wo man and child who mode bis cr her usual place of abode there on tho first day of June, 1880. They will have to set down the number of persons in tho family, their names, the age, sex, color, Occupation and place of birth of each person named. Tho relationship of all members of tho family must bc stated, and whether married, wid owed or single, And whether naturalized or alien. A Iso (heir physical condition, wheth er Bick ur disabled, and natura of sickness or disability, and whether deaf.- dumb, blind, insane; or idiotic Schedule No. 2 contains a full list of inquiries relating" to farms', crops, stocks and implements. Other schedules relate to business sud Industry, railroads and other corporations, the object i being to get complete returns in regard, to every part of our material resources. Tiiis is a work of great importance to the people of the United States, and they will be doing well to anawer the questions promptly snd readily, so as to faclMtato tho work of the enumerators aa much as posai ble. Complimentary Resolutions. At a meeting of ibo Executive Board of tho Saluda Association, held on the 28th ult., the following pM*n?blir sr.d rania* lions were unanimously adopted . v Whereas, the Executive ooaM of the Baptist State Convention, lately elected Rev. W. H. Strickland Corresponding Sec retary and Treasurer of said Board, snd he bas accepted the same ; and whereas, Bro. Strickland has for the but three yean been nn active, seamus and efficient member of this Board, and commended himself to the love and affection ot the churches of thia Association on Account of his devotion to the cause or Christ sud activity and success in tho benevolent and Christian enterprises of the denomination : chcrefore. Rooked. That while we regret that Bro. Strickland ia called from his present field of labor in which bo Los beeu so successful and so mach beloved for his work's sake, yet we regard this selection by tbs Executive Board ofthe State to the field to which it bas called him os eminently judicious and wise, and that our prayers and beat wishes will follow him In hf- new field cf ?&vl?t!an labor. 2. That Bro. Strickland be invited to be gin his work and spend tho month of July among the churches of this Association, and that ho use his discretion .in taking up collections, and that all collections taker be credited to the churches ot which taken. 3. That we cordially commend B.othcr Strickland to the churches of thia State and to all friends cf the Mission work. Anderson St?rket Report?.

Tho case wo now have tore ?ord, however, does not, in our opinion, re (lcct discreditably upon tho white citizens of dist place, for they had nothing whatever io do with lt, and are in no wise responsible Tor the afluir. Tho circumstances of the ?seare about as follows: A colored man !>y the name of Jim Williams, who has Men living at Basley for some time, and ?ho has been fed and supported by several colored wo et cu in the employ of wtyte persons, was taken o ' * of his hoes? on Monday night of last week by a party of men of bis own color, carried about a milo rom town and severely flogged because of ll* worthless and turbulent disposition, and lien admonished to leave' the commuidty, arhkb he subsequently did. Considering he character of Williams, as well as the uotives which induced tho justly incensed ?icred men of thai community lu their actions, we do not kuow but what the ynrhing was justifiable, after all. 'ibero ure 'oany just such worthless villains of jotti races all over our country who ore do ng more to demoralise society than any hing else that could bo mentioned, and vben the 8tato fails to protect her citizens rom tbe impositions of auch follows by the inforccniont of the law, we regard it per belly legitimate for tho citizens to protect hetnseJves, The Anderson Grange. Thc dinner party given on lost Saturday >y lion. B. F. Cray ton to tho Anderson 3rango and some invited guests, was a roost lssasant and enjoyablo occasion'.

All of the crops upon-. ?bo place aro well advanced, showing thor-' ingh preparation and skillful cultivation. The oat and com crops, taken as a whole, ivero decidedly ahead of anything wo have leen in the County, and the cotton crop is unong the best. After spending some tim? n this very entertaining review, tho party returned to tho house, where.a bountiful md tempting repast awaited, and was most leartlly partaken of by thom. Mr. 0. F. Tolly presided over tho moal, and at its inclusion insisted that tho feast should bo "allowed by an.address from the host, on ho ground that ono good turn deserves mother. Tho demand was generally sec eded, atid Col.
