Gratifying I'jonin-ttty.
Tho increase in (be business oi Anderson
this year over that of uny previous year in
tlie history of thc town is plainly percepti
ble to even the most casual observer, and is
most gratifying to all interested in our pro
gress and advancement. This increase in
business is due mainly to two causes, to
wit : Tlie high prices paid by our merchants
for cotton and other country produce, thus
inducing the farmers to bring their stufTs
here for Hale, and the very low figure at
which goods of every kind, and especially
those most needed by the country people,
are sold. Up to within two years ago wo
had been discriminated against by the rail
roads to such an extent that it was Impos
sible for us to compete with oilier towns in
the matter of prices for goods, and conse
quently our business men labored under
very great-disadvantages, which served to
destroy their energies and retard materially
the progress and development of not only
their business but that of all others us well.
Since, however, we have been put on nu
equal footing in this respect with other
places, the many natural advantages of our
town as a market, combined with the enter
prise and public spiritedness of our busi
ness men generally, has drawn many hither
who never traded hero before, and brought
back to us the trade of hundreds who had
ceased to patronize Anderson for tho reason
that they could do better elsewhere. Our
business this year as compared with that of
former years is very much improved, and
we have every reason lo believe that aa the
advantages of our place us a business mart
are more widely known this improvement
will be still greater. Tho whole number of
bales of cotton sold nt this place for the
cotton yeur ending2lst August last amount
ed to between 15,000 and 10,000 and this
year wc have no doubt the number will
reach 10,000 or 20,000. Up to the present
time wc ure several hundred bales ahead of
last year, with every indication that each
succeeding week will add tu Ibis majority.
There arc many causes for congratulation
upon this progress, which should and
doubtless will, stimulate every ono with a
spark of enterprise or public Spirit to still
greater cilbrts to build up our town. No
one should relax his energies now. Do nil
lhat is possible to extend the fame of An
derson, and thus contribute to lier pros
perity. There is no (own in South Curolina
where higher prices are paid foi cotton or
where goods ure sold nt lower prices, and
there is no reason why uny furnier in this
County should haul a pound of cotton to
any oilier market. Our merchants appre
ciate fully the demands of the times, and
they will be the last ones to disregard theso
demands. This, we think, every one cnn
rest assured of.

Agent for Raptist State Missions, went with
Kev. W. H. King, the pastor* to Union
Church, near Lowndesvillc, where betook
a collection for lils cause amounting to
cash. Ile reports favorably in many
respects for that Church and people. A live
Sunday School meets in thc church winter
and summer, a Woman's Mission Society is
in operation, and the outlook for progress
and development is very bright. The con
gregation is one of the" lurgest, if not the
largest, in Anderson County, and the pastor
and his corps of deacons are doing a good
work for that community. Mr. Strick
land's visit was thc first ever made the
Union people by any agent for missions or
education, but we opine it will not be the
lost.

Our place, remarkable for its health, has had
for two months past nn
UNUSUAL MORTALITY.
While I was pastor for three and one-half years.
I hu-1 hut three or four funerals. Uro. Itel I has
had as many in two months. Wc nave lind no
epidemic, but our ?ells have tolled often and
sadly of late.
TWO SERIOUS i.o
Captain Joseph Y. Fretwcll. onu of our oldest
and most valued citizens, died, at hts home near
herc, a few days ago, most quietly and peacefully,
without suffering of account. Hu was nearly four
score, aud yet ho was hale and hearty to tho last
week of his life. He was a Christian, I believe,
although ho hid not uniera Uh any church, and
1 look forward to meeting aim in thc better
world. 1 was his pastor, his family were Ilap
tists, and I often visited him at his quiet country*
homo, taking my little children with mc. Ile
loved children passionately ; said : "I am never so
happy as when I have my arms full of them, and
my heart full of them, too." Often placing his
hands on tho head of my little daughter!., he
would say, fervently : "God bless you, and shield
you, and save you, my daughters." Ile had on
abiding trust in Jesus, and lived au exemplary
Ufo. A large an afflicted community of friends
mourn his loss. His children and grandchildren
rank among our very best people showing that
they have had good training. My last visit to his
house was tho lost week in June. Ho welcomed
me, as usual, and said : "I do so much apnreciate
this visit, sir. I was nfrald you wouldu't have
timo to come and sec an old man ngaln." Kidding
mo good-bye as I went away, nc said : "I know
1 you will succeed in your new work, but I cm sorry
you gave up your church."
Our other foss was that of Judge J. P. Heed, who
for many years, was ono of thu mott substantial
supports to our Uaptist church, and the most
public spirited cltii.cn lu our village.
He had been a public mau all his life, serving his
country and State, and to Iiis efforts aro mainly
duu many good works and monuments of progress
in upper South Carolina. Ills illness was lung and
painful, but ho exhibited great character under
hu sufferings, and has gone to "where the weary
are r.l rest." His nature was noble aud generous,
and lils heart was tender aud sympathetic rv? a
woman's. Ho possessed that ndniirablc quality of
..'."< manhood that enables une lo say, "I was
wrong, I ask your pardon," mid hu was a shining
Illustration of it ; hod he julgcd a servant unjustly
or hastily, he was as prompt tn seek out that ser
vant and make due amends. Kora go-xl while I
was his pastor, loved ac I appreciated, ?nd it was so
plainly to bo seen in lils long sickness that tho
good tattier was mellowing thu apple before it WON
to fall. Ho was specially fond of Hod's word and
prayer, aud often, when I visited him, ho would
remind mc almost os soon as I rat down, that I
must read God's word and make prayer before I
retired.
His ideal of a Christian man, minister, editor
and argumcutartan, was found in Ur. Jeter. Ho
-zz constant!;* uttering his praises. Often has ho
said to mo : "flro.S., Dr. Jeter ii thu greatest man
tho Uaptists have produced ;" and u lien hu dit,I,
ho said:
"T?tere ls no ouo to take hit place."
A short time before bis departure, I visited him j
ho could speak hut little ; My only bops for sal
vation ls in my Ilea? nlv Father, through his
Sou Jesus Christ, aud I uon t bel le vu he will fail
mo. He never hes." And ss be r-aid at J.-t.-r, so
may l>c said of him. Thcro is no una to fill his
placo in tho enterprise and public spirit of our
town.
A large, honorable and respectable family moora
his loss, and to them and thc friends of Captain
Frctwuil wo tender our sincere sympathies. Thus
together havo nasied away twa ni lh# nlno.t ...ntl.

Ma. EDiTon: We wish to 3jK.uk with thc
readers of your paper about Anderson and
her interests. Wc are of thc opinion that
thc timo hos arrived to build a large factor}*
in thc town of Anderson. We believe that
our peoplo havo tho sparc means to enter
into such an enterprise, and if correct in
this the only remaiuing question is, Will
it pay? We think it will, if projierly man
aged. There can be no doubt about it. We
are In *be centre of the finest cotton belt in
the State-cotton suillcicnt sold in mr
market annually to supply a flrst-clux, cot
ton factory. This is certainly a very deci
ded advantage over many mills that succeed
and declare large dividends to their stockhol
ders annually. Wu take it that a good per
centum could and would be realised on thu
investment, therefore no objection can bc
urged to thc enterprise on this considera
tion. .
Is the foregoing all thc consideration?
We think not. It would make Anderson
a better market for the planter; it would
double tho population of our town; it
would increase ibo price of real estate both
lu the town and surrounding country ; thc
mercantile business would bo greatly in
creased ; the business of mechanics-car
penters, masons, painters, and all-would
bc greatly enhanced, and from these sources
many other advantages would naturally
arise, such as additional contributions vo
our schools and churches. Thcso consif . r
ations alone, disconnected from the percen
tage on the investment, would compensate
the stockholders, but when wo get thc per
centage and the other advantages attending
tho enterprise, why not enter into it?
Wo write with tho hope of getting our
people to think on this matter, discuss this
matter, perfect this matter and build the
factory. Jons R. MOORK.
