The Camp Meeting at Providence, which opened on Wednesday and closed'* on Mon? day was a big affair in point of attendance, which is said to have been larger on Sunday than on anv previous occasion. The order and general' behavior of.the immense crowd was remarkably good, not a single disturb l anceoccurring during the day, as far as we I" have heard. The preaching of the occasion P was fine, and largely attended. Rev. A. Ranson, D. D., of Hunlcrsville, Mecklenburg Co., N. C, died on Wednes doy, Hth instant, in the -59th year of his age. Dr. Ranson has a brother and sister residing in this County, and at one time was himself a citizen of Anderson. He was a faithful and useful worker in the cause of religion, bis sterling character and theological attainments giving him a com? manding influence in the Associate Reform? ed Presby tarian Church, of which he was an honored member. There is a colored female child in this County five years and twu months old that weighs 85 pounds, is 3 feet 4 inches high and measures 3 feet around the waist. Her parents, Mose and Margaret Roberts, live up on Six-and-Twenty, and are of medium size. They have two children, the youngest of whom is about two yeartf old, and is of ordinary size. They cannot account for the unnatural growth of their first born, whom, though being quite a giant, has remarkably good use of her limbs, docs not eat more than children unsually do at her age, and is ordinarily intelligent. The parents had her in towp*bn Monday, and allowed Capt. Wren to make several pictures ?of liar, oue joi which can be seen by calling tit Max wtn'g gpf^ry- When five month:'old she mety&edjffj pounds. Do not neglect to attend thegreat meeting at Anderson on the ptlt of September, for it will be one of the greatest occasions ever .witnessedin tbeConniy. Our United States Senators and candidates for State ofliccrs, together with other distinguished orators, ?will be present. The Palmetto Band and Old Reformer will also lend their attractions to the land. The mounted Clubs from every port of the County will be present, and join in rendering the occasion in reality a gala day. The copartnership heretofore exuding be? tween Messrs. J. Reese and A. Wayne Pant has been dissolved and another copartner? ship formed between Messrs. J. Reese Fant and C. C. Cumniings. Mr. A. Wayne Fant contemplates retiring from the mercantile business at an early day, but will for a while remain in the establishment of Messrs. J. R. Fant & Co. as salesman. The members of the new firm arc weil and favorably known to the trading public as men of good busi? ness qualifications, tor whom we bespeak a liberal and generous patronage. The first bale of new cotton for this County was brought to town on Monday afternoon, 23rd inst., by Mr. S. J. Browne, of Broadaway township, and was purchased by Messrs. Barr & Co., for Hi cents cash. Tne bale weighed 5-12 pounds, and was picked, ginned and packed on the day on which it was sold. The ginning and press? ing was done by Messr3, W. A. Geer and Co., on new machinery which was adjusted ?on the same day, the gin having been pur? chased on Satruduy and the press on Mon? day. This was quick work all around. This is four days earlier than a bale of new cotton was ever sold in this market before. Three more new bales were brough t to town on Tuesday and one on Wednes? day. Martin Democratic Club met at Clink scales' Mill on last Friday afternoon, and after poviding for the registration of voters in the Club was addressed by E. B. Murray, | Esq., upon the importance of thorough or? ganization and work in the pending cam- I paign. It was resolved to have a mas3 meeting of Belton, Broadaway, Honea Path and Martin Townships at Crayton ville on Friday, the 3rd day of September. Cols. Aiken and Cothrnn, together with the County candidates, nre requested to address the meeting. All the Clubs of the County are invited to be present, and a pleasant day in the way of a basket picnic is anticipated. The ladies are especially invited to attend. A resolution endorsing the nomination of of Mr. Ezekiel Harris for County Commis? sioner was passed. It was also determined to attend the mass meeting at Anderson on the 9th of September, and Capt. R. B. A. Robinson appointed to command the moun? ted procession. The meeting was quite a success. Improvements in the management of the Greenville & Columbia' Railroad are still going bravely on, to the gratification of its Satrons and the public generally. We un erstand that on the 1st September a fine passenger train with air breaks and all of the conveniences and comforts for passen? fers usually found on a first-class road, will e put upon the Anderson Branch and Blue Ridge Division, the object of which is to make close connection at Seneca City with the western bound day passenger train on the Air Line* Road. This will greatly in? crease the travel over this line, as It will make the time between Charleston and At? lanta, Go., and all point.'- west of that place, about six hours shorter that over any other route. The great bulk of travel between these two points now jmes by the way of Augusta, but as soon as the proposed change is made it will naturally change to this line on account of the great saving of time, which, to the traveling public, is always an important consideration. This will give Anderson and the other towns on this sec? tion of the G. & C. R. R. all that could be wished in the way of railroad accommoda? tions. In addition to this improvement we learn also that there will be put upon the main line a through night freight, which will carry a passenger coach. The IVilliamston Meeting. The meeting at Williamston on last Thursday was quite a success for the pres? ent time of inactivity in politics. There were from four to six hundred persons pres? ent and the best of order prevailed through? out the entire day. Dr. II. I. Epting, Pres? ident of the Williamston Club, presided over the meeting, and after an eloquent in? troductory addresshe introduced as speakers for the morning Messrs. R. W. Simpson, E. B. Murray and E. M. Ruckcr, and in the afternoon Messrs. D. Wyatt Aiken and Jas. L. Orr. The speeches were good, and thouEh very little enthusiasm was exhibited, the attention was excellent. The result of this meeting is bound to affect much good Tor the party organization in the County as other Clubs are already arranging for large local mass meetings. After the speaking, arrangements were made to form a large mounted club to at? tend the meeting on the 9th of September at Anderson. The Oconec Radicals. The Radicals of Oconec County held an? other Convention on Thursday" last, the object of which was to elect delegates to the State, Congressional and Judicial Con? ventions. Bill Parker, the Radical County Chairman of Anderson County, was in at? tendance, and from a communication to the Columbia Register we learn took quite an active part in the proceedings. The meeting was called to order by M. II. Brice, County Chairman, and after declar? ing himself elected permanent chairman upon a motion to elect "a chairman," pro? ceeded to settle the question as to which of two contesting dilegations were entitled to seats in the Convention. A committc? was appointed to report, upon the matter, and upon submitting their report recom? mended that half of each delegation be seated. This was objected to by one of the contesting delegates', who declared that if a part of them were turned out they would all go to hell together. Here the confusion became so great that Bryce, the Chairman, was powerless to command order, and Bill Parker, from Anderson, came forward and assumed the chair to quell the violence threatening, but even his thundering voice met the same fate as the former. Still the confusion became greater and greater, many angry negroes being on the floor at once. Finally one young and stout negro gave a blow to the appointed sergcant-at-arms, when the two parties began to concentrate their forces, fathering close together. Bill, the Anderson negro, and, by the way, a preacher, and another preacher raised one of those good old hymns, and then we had cursing, swearing, fighting and music all in one scene. But the good old music had the desired efiect, and the chair announced the house ready for business. One party de? clared "this is not a legal luectin' no how," and so on for about two and a half hours, when the proposition for a compromise was accepted. Bill, above named, was chosen permanent Chairman, and, at this, Bryce I was so aggrieved that he thought proper to leave the house. As he left many of the negroes railed on him to go !ii>:nc?that "his beef shop had run dry any how." At his departure his followers followed suit and left the opponents to run the machine. A difficulty now occurred between the aforesaid Bill and one of the Bryce crowd, but was ended in words, but somewhat a lengthy quarrel, so at this Bill's opponent left the hall. Bill announced the house ready for business, and they proceeded to elect their delegates. And* by the way, there were two large bull dogs' to bay and bark while the delegates cursed, sung and fought. This was one of the most disgraceful Con? ventions ever held in the up-country. The negroes were in high tone over the defeat of Bryce. They say they never con look to gain anything under such a leader. A Card. Since I have been nominated for County Commissioner by the Bowling Green Dem? ocratic Club, and my name favorably men? tioned in other parts of the County, I fiel that it i3 due my friends to state'that we have two candidates from Varennes, and I think it proper for me to decline running.

AS THE GINNING SEASON is about to commence, it would be to the interest of all who expect to cany on the Ginning business to be careful in the selection of the best machine. It was our object when we started the Gin business to sell the best Gin made in the United States, and we claim thr.t we have succeeded. Our PRATT GIN is equal to all, and far superior to many Gins now being offered for sale. We never make a sale without a guarantee of perfect satisfaction, and claim noth? ing for the Gin that wo cannot fully substantiate. As we arc engaged largely in Cotton Buying, as well as the General Merchandise busi? ness, it is to our interest that every Ginncr should use the best Gin. We have bought the past season about 4000 bales of Cotton which was ginned on the I'ratt Gin, and in every instance it brought the higlr t prices. From the many certificates in our possession we aregratilied with the results, and refer you to the following named gentlemen, who arc now using the PltATT GIN, and abide their decision :? Col. J.
