He is well known to the people of Anderson County as an excellent dentist, and any one desiring his professional ser ves can obtain them by calling on him nt the Benson House. We would give a word of warning to the parents of Anderson who allow their boys "to frequent the depot at train time. When they are allowed euch privileges they soon become reckless and daring, which often leads to some painful accident. Keep tho boys away from tho depot. Hov. S. Lander, D. D., President of the | 'Williamson Founde College, lectured on education in the Methodist Church on last Friday night. His lecture was Interesting throughout, and tho "one study" and "pri vate graduation" features of his College supported by able arguments. Wo would direct attention to the caril of lt. A. Reid, M. D., which appears in this issue. Dr. Reid recently graduated In the Charleston Medical College, and now offers professional services to the people of An .dOrs?il und SUrKmndirtg ennui ry. Ut! ia a gentleman of culture and ability, and will doubtless receive a liberal share of public patronage. We are indebted to Mr. 8. M. Crayton for ts basket of very large Irish potatoes.

The little fellows wer?- only five and seven years of ngc: undkilk ?thcsnake with a stick not exceeding two fee* long. This was certainly a remarkable battle far Euch small boys, who were utterly uncon scious of tho danger they ran. Mr. John E. Peoples has doubled his ad-. vertlslng space this week.

Ho is also selling nn excellent cotton press and porta ble engine, which he wishes those who de sire to purchase to examine Wo know or nothing but tho wind and moon that changes oftener than tba schedule of the G. & C. R. R. True, tho lost change makes it.a little better for passengers on thc Biuc Ridge Division going in the direc tion of Columbia, as the morning trab? now reacher Belton about an hour later, reducing tho time for lying over at that place to three honra ; but why can not them lie somo stability In tho management of af fairs?

Miss Lou if c Clarke, au intelligent and accomplished young lady from Selma, Ala., gave a reading and recitation in Ma sonic Hall on Monday night, which was attended by a small though appreciative audience. Her pieces were of both a seri ous and humorous character, ond were pre sented in a faultless style. Her pronuncia tion waa perfect, her articulation distinct, her gestures graceful, her voice sweet and well modulated! and her manner easy ss;fl attractive. Miss ClarVo IB an Alabamian by birth, U a lady of excellent character and of more than ordinary ability, and possesses in a marked degree the characteristics of the Southern lady. Those present at her en tertainment Monday night were delighted. Col. J. M. Thomson,'of Marion, Ala:, accompanied by his daughter, Miss Bettie, his sister, Mrs. Steele, and his niece, Miss Tritumler, who have been visiting relatives in Abbeville and Anderson Counties dur ing the past week or two, spent four or five days of thc past week in this place. Tho principal object of Col. Thomson's visit to South Carolina at this time was to deliver tho Alumni Oration at tho commencement of Erskine College, and which, on account of containing a complete history bf this excellent institution nf learning, together with worthy tributes to its fathers, is to bo printed in pamphlet form for general dis tribution.

Strickland, of Ander son, was all very lino, while tba discussions bad on the various topics chosen were edi fying and instructive, particularly to Sun day School workers. The attendance was very large throughout, and the boat of order was preserved. Tho good people of Honen Path and surrounding country received the. delegates and visitors .most cordially, and entertained them with that liberal and gen erous hospitality for which they have long becii noted. The reports from the various schools, composing tho Instituto were very encouraging, and showed a marked pro gression in tho work. New schools are ho ing organized, tho average attendance is better, tho contributions to Missions, etc., huger, mid lu every particular tbo causo is making advances. Tho organization ia do ing a noble work for Christianity, mid de serves tho earnest cud cordial support of all Christians. Tho next meeting will bc hold at Pendleton. . Another Victim ol Whiskey.
