In this immediate "vicinity the rain was light, but nevertheless very beneficial to vegetation. The air is cooler now, and everybody and everything looks more cheer? ful. Mr. William Fant, father of our towns? man, Mr. George W. Fant, died at his resi? dence near Central, in Pickeus County, on last Friday in the seventy-seventh year of his age. He was a good citizen, and his death is mourned by many relatives and friends. We print this week the full proceedings of the Cincinnati Convention, besides bio? graphical sketches of Hancock and English and what the leading men and journals of the country think of them. It is all good reading, even to those who take no interest in politics. The Raikes Sunday School Centennial Celebration that was appointed for last Sunday afternoon in the Baptist Church wcj postponed until next Sunday after? noon, at which time it will be had. Ad? dresses will be delivered by Rev. T. P. Bell and J. L. Tribble, Esq., and a number of prizes issued to pupils of the Baptist school. The meeting will open at 5 o'clock and last about one hour. We have been requested to announc? that Rev. E. R. Carswell, Jr., will preach on several days at Cross Roads Church, in this County, beginning on next Sabbath night at tbe usual hour.

Thomas Dawson, the oldest Baptist minister in South Carolina, died in the ninetieth or niuety-first year of his age at hie residence in Pendleton on last Tuesday afternoon, after a lingering illness of several months. Mr. Dawson was a useful and pious Christian minister, whose good works will live after him. We regret that the news of his death reached us too late to prepare a proper notice of his life for this paper, but hope some friend who has the information necessary will furnish us a sketch of his life for our next issue. The present session of the Carolina Col? legiate Institute will close next week with an exhibition, the programme for which embraces Wednesday and Thursday nights.

Mr. Aaron B. Holland, an esteemed citi? zen of Brushy Creek township, died on Wednesday, 25th June, in the sixty-second year of his age, after a lingering illness of eighteen months. He had been a member of the Baptist Church for forty-eight years, and was a consistent and earnest Christian. He was a man of more tfian ordinary use? fulness in ins community, and will be sadly missed by his neighbors. His remains were buried in the graveyard at Siloam Church on Thursday. A large family connection, with many sympathizing friends, mourn his death. A telegram to the Charleston Xews and Conner from Columbia, dated June 25, says that ex-Senator Cochran has withdrawn his application for appointment to the U. S. Marsbalship for South Carolina. He is also reported as saying that he was sorry the Democrats had nominated such a strong national ticket, which no doubt in sufficient explanation of his withdrawal from the field. Neither Hayes nor Garfield will ever see that office filled by an appointment of theirs. The next U. S. Marshal for this State will receive his commission from President Hancock. There will be a grand excursion from Atlanta on the 13th of July to several points in Texas, going by Memphis and re? turning by McKenzie and Nashville.

Parties will have to take the train from Atlanta at 3 o'clock p. m., on the 13th instant. All the Texas roads will allow parties to stop off at any station desired. Further information may be ob? tain of Albert B. Wrenn, Atlanta. Ga. Mr. B. G. Brown, one of the operators of the Western Union Telegraph Company at Greenville, had a narrow escape from death one day last week. Wishing to tc.ke some iodide of ?pciassiv.m, he through mistake, took instead cyanide of potassium, a rank poison. He discovered his mistake in a minute or two, and at once sought medical aid, but before that could be obtained fell to the floor almost insensible. Physicians were soon obtained, who succeeded in ejecting the poison from his system before its effects were too far advanced. Mr. Brov/n is an Andersonian, and his many friends will be glad to know tbat he is again all right. The fete champetre given by the ladies of the Episcopal Church on Thursday night last was largely attended, and in every re? spect successful and enjoyable. It was had in the beautiful grove in front of Dr. Nar din's residence, which was illuminated by a large number of Chinese lantern^ sus? pended on cords stretched from t' .e to tree. The tables, ladened with refreshments of every kind, and placed in different parts of the yard, were attended by the young ladies of the Church and liberally patronized by those present. The young people seemed to enjoy the evening quite as much as is usual on such occasion. The net proceeds of the evening's sales amounted to about $40. The survey of the Savannah Valley Rail? road has been completed, and the engineer corps engaged In the work returned to this place on Tuesday. An accurate survey of the route was made to Dorn's Mine, from which point a preliminary survey was made to Edgefield C. H., to which place it is now proposed to extend the Road, connecting there with a projected line to Aiken. The entire line from Anderson to Aiken is most practicable, and can be constructed for a comparatively small sum of money. The people of Edgefield, we understand, are aroused on the subject, and recognize the importance of co-operating with the inter? ested townships in Andersou and Abbeville Counties in securing its extension to that place. A report giving all the details of the survey will be submitted by Ma}. Lee to the Board of Directors at their meeting in Anderson on next Thursday, which we will endeavor to lay before our readers. The West Point Cadetship. Col. D. Wyatt Aiken furnishes the Co? lumbia Register with the following infor? mation concerning the examination of can? didates for the West Point Cadetship from this Congressional District: A competitive examination of the appli? cants for admission to West Point, from the Third South Carolina Congressional District, will be held at Cokesbnry on Thurs? day, 22d July, ^beginning at 12"o'clock m. The successful competitor or his alternate will be examined at West.Point for aclmis ?ion in June, 1881. The regulations of the academy require that "each candidate must be able to read ' and write the English language correctly and to perform with facility and accuracy the various operations of the four ground rules of arithmetic, of reduction, of simple and compound proportion, and of vulgar and decimal fractions, and have a knowl? edge of the elements of English grammar, of descriptive geography, particularly of our own country, and of the history of the United States." "No candidate will be admitted under seventeen or over twenty-one years of age, or less than five feet in height, or who is deiormed or afflicted with any disease or infirmity which would render him un? fit for the military service, or who has, at the time of presenting himself, any dis? order of an infectious or immoral character." Masonic Dedication at Greenville. A short time since an invitation was ex? tended to the members of Hiram Lodge, No. 68, A. F. M., and other Lodges of the County by Recovery Lodge, No. 31, to visit and assist in the ceremonies of dedication of its new lodge-room on the evening the 24th ultimo. By the absence of the receiver, excursion rates were not secured until the Wednesday before, and even at that late hour for preparation forty-seven attended from Anderson and nine from Belton. The trip over was pleasant and rapid, the fraternity having aboard a large quantity of lemonade with which to cool the heated excursionists. Reaching Greenville at an early hour, time was given the visitors to see a great deal of the city. At 9 o'clock the fraterni? ty assembled in the new lodge-room in Mauldin's Block. The room is large and well ventilated, is readied by an easy and broad flight of stairs, and is well lighted With gas. Ample furniture and ante-rooms have been made, and the whole building is well arranged for the purposes of Masonry. The furniture of the lodge is new, hand? some, and reflects much credit on the ener? gy of the members of the lodge. A great many, not members of the order, including the fair sex, were stated in the hall to view the ceremonies of dedication, conducted by the officers of the Grand Lodge. The following officers of Hiram Lodi:? were present and participated in the exer? cises : R. F. Di wer, M.; J. J. Baker, S. W.; J. A. Daniels, J. W.; W. D. Maroney, S. D.; J. M. Payne, J. D. There were sev? eral officers and members of Hermen Lodge, No. 110, present. Grand Master A. T. Smythc, of Charles? ton, officiated with becoming grace, and Grand Chaplain Ellison Capers conducted his part of the ceremonies in his wonted stylo. Past Master John R. Bellinger, late? ly of Bamwell, but who has recently be? come a rctident of Grecnyilje, made a fine address on Masum-y. The oration was elo? quent, and the orator"* style was forcible and entertaining. At the conclusion of the ceremonies and the grand inarch three times around the room, the fraternity re tired to the Odd Fellows room adjoining, where the Lodge was cloned in due form. The members, guests and lady visitors then repaired to the room below, where a splen? did collation was spread, consisting of cakes, creams, ices, etc., and there was plenty and to spare. After all had partaken to their capacity, the crowd dispersed, well pleased with the hospitality and cordiality of their Greenville hosts. At 8:30 next day the visitors embarked for home, and we have yet to hear of the first man who did not enjoy his trip. Dr. R. F. Divver, Worshipful Master of Hiram Lodge, deserves great credit for his attention and energy in making the affair a complete success. Williamston. Candidates are numerous and at work on this side of the County. No man will be without friends in Williamston for the next four mouths.A light shower of rain fell here last Friday. It cooled the atmosphere and brightened the faces of the farmers con? siderably.Capt. B. C. Martin, I am told, made seventy bushels of oats on one acre of ground. The yield of wheat is poor, even poorer than was expected by many. Major T. F. Anderson sowed one bushel and threshed three pecks.Everybody seems to be satisfied with the nomination made by the Cincinnati Convention. Many of the reading men of this section preferred Bay? ard, but are content in the belief that Han? cock is perhaps the most available man in the party. The citizens of Williamston are proud of the attention shown the South Carolina delegation in Cincinnati, especial? ly the 'frequent calls made from time to time during the progress of the Convention for Hampton. Carolina loves to honor Hampton, and it makes her heart glad to see him honored outside the bounds of his own State.The next session of the Wil? liamston Male High School begins next Monday. The principal, Mr. J. M. Pickle, is very popular here, and but for his native modesty would be .better known in this county and others. He goes next Fall to the Johu Hopkins University. His patrons dislike to give him up, but admire his de? termination to prepare himself still more thoroughly for the great lcsponiiibilitics of a teacher. Knilc. A Suggestion. Mr. Editor: Permit us through your valuable paper to make a few timely sug? gestions to our colored friends of Anderson and vicinity relative to the extreme super? stition of singing and praying all night over the dead. We fail to sec the necessity of taking such a method of showing the last tribute of respect to the dead. In our humble opinion it is not only an insult to the community and bereaved to thus dis? honor the dead, but is an insult to God. We never had a more restless night to pass over than last night, (Monday.) We im? agine that it made the eastern portion of Anderson almost a pandemonium. We suggest to the colored people that this is not a decent method of honoring the dead ?not by any means. It begets three evils: 1. It harrasses and disturbs the mind and continually refreshes the n.emory of the bereaved. 2. It L seriously unpleasant and offens've to the community in which it is carried on. 3. It is a poor example to the young of the colored race, upon whom, in a great measure, the future weal of the country depends ; and besides, it is a nuisance of the first water. We do not object to a proper ceremony over the remains, nor to a respectable num? ber of persons remaining with the body overnight, whose duty it should be to sit as quietly as possible. This is an age of civilization, and the colored people should observe the common proprieties of the times. They havo no example of such a method given by the more intelligent por? tion of our community. We hope that this mode of dishonoring the dead will be discontinued. It is a relic of barbarism. We have always observed that the funeral services and closing ceremonies at the grave were sufficient for any and all purposes. A Citizen Who Heard. Savannah Valley Railroad.
