LOCAL NEWS. W. W. KEYS, Local Editor. BRIEF BIENTION. Senator Hampton has returned to this State, and is now with the campaign party. * The circus passed up to Walhalla on Tues ? day night, where it exhibited on Wednes? day. Mr. John C. Horton brought us a mam? moth sweet potato of his own raising last week. In consequence of the decline in the price of cotton, business has not been so brisk j the past week. A large amount of interesting reading matter is left ont this week to give place to new advertisements. Cotton was selling yesterday at 95. which was a slight advance on the ruling price on Monday and Tuesday. We have heard in a roundabout way that the whole of Hart County will be over to the circus to-morrow. The usual Friday evening prayer meeting and teachers' meeting of the Baptists will be dispensed with this week. Maj. E. B. Murray went to ColuraHa on Tuesday to attend a meeting of the State Democratic Executive Committee. The net proceeds of the entertainment of ] the ladies of the Baptist Church on Wednes? day of last week amounted to $170. Rev.* W. H. Strickland will preach at Salem Church next Sunday at 11 a. m. and present the claims of the State Mission work. ? See the programme of the County Fair printed in this issue, which contains a com? plete list of the awarding committees of the several departments. Messrs.- Ligon & Hill have a large supply of Stono acid and guano on hand, which is highly recommended as a fertilizer for wheat | ana other small .grain. The colored Baptists of this place will have a fair to-morrow, 8th instant, for the purpose of-raising mcney with which to repair their church building. We publish to-day a long and important Ordinance passed by the Town Council at a special meeting on Tuesday night last. It should be carefully read by all of our citi zens, both in the town and county. ; We would direct the attention of our lady l-eaders to the advertisement of Miss Delia Keys, which will be found in this issue. She keeps a good stock of millinery goods, and gives prompt attention to niantua niaking, etc. By the provisions of the Ordinance passed ? by the Town Council on Tuesday, it is now . - unlawful for any person to carry concealed ' weapons of any kind in the town of An? derson. Thjs is a good law, and should be - rigidly enforced. The Circuit. Court for this County con? vened on Monday morning, but at the re? quest of the Bar. was adjourned over till next Monday, at . which time it will be re? convened. Judge Mackey was very willing, to grant the request of the lawyers, as he was anxious to attend the King's Mountain /. Centennial Celebration. : , While Mr. Joseph Jolly, a 'young man of | .about 20 years of age, was going to Sandy Springs Church on last Sunday morning in company with two other young men, all on horseback, his horse took fright and .ran away, throwing him against a tree and in? flicting very serious and painful wounds on his head, which may yet prove fatal. . All of our merchants have agreed to close their stores on Friday of the Fair, and all persons are notified not to come to town on I ! that day. for the purpose of trading or at-.j .tending to business with them. If the mer? chants are willing to lose a day at this busy season of the year to give encouragment to this enterprise, Why cannot all others ? The Clyde Company, the recent purchas? ers of the Greenville & Columbia Railroad, have complied with the decree of Judge | Hudson, and paid one hundred thousand dollars cash,' and given bond for one hun? dred thousand to pay in sixty days the bal? ance of the first payment of the purchase! money, which is about ?600,000 additional. Rev. Xj. M. Ay er has been elected pastor I of the Town.vflle Baptist Church for the 'next ensuing year. A better selection could ] not have been made. The Church is loca? ted in one of the best sections of tho County ?just such a place as a good preacher might desire for his field of labor. Should Gen. Ayer accept the call, we congratulate both .pastor and Church. Bev. Mr. Strickland, Corresponding Sec? retary of Baptist Convention of this State, reports $1,348.87 as his cash collections for the month of September. During the month he has visited six Associations and two Churches, all of which have extended to him a hearty welcome and to his work liberal contributions. At Reedy River As ? sociatio/i he received $353.10 cash. Messrs. Beed, Moorehead & Herrick, our | nearest neighbors, are carrying a much larger stock of goods this year than former? ly, ana from the constant stream of custo? mers going in and out of their establish? ment, it is a reasonable conclusion that the . patronage accorded them has proportionate? ly increased. This firm is composed of good material, and shows every sign of prosperi? ty A car load of twenty-six bales of cotton was burned at Ninety-Six, on the G. & C. R, R., last Saturday. The car when foucd .to be on fire was immediately detached from the train, but the burning had progressed 1 bo far that it was impossible to save any of the cotton. The car was from Abbeville,1 making the third car load from that place that bos been burned withinV ten day:;.? This induces the opinion that the burning -was the work of an incendiary. Bound trip tickets to Atlanta, Ga., will be sold &t the several ticket offices on the line of the G. & C. R. R. from Monday, October 11th. until Friday, October 22, inclusive, good to return until October 25th, inclusive, at greatly reduced rates, for the accommo? dation of those who wish to attend the Fair of the Gate City Guards, of that city. The following are the rates from points in this County: From Honea Path $3.50, Belton $3.25, Anderson $3.25, Williamston $3.25, Pendleton $2.60. Mr. A. Lesser, the energetic proprietor of I the Paris Store, brings his establishment be? fore our readers this week in a two-column advertisement, which every one is requested to carefully read. He is doing a better bus? iness this season than ever before, and is striving with all his might to please all of his customers. He fully appreciates the fact that to succeed in business he must first deserve the patronage of the trading Sublic, and on this principle he is acting, ive him a call, and see for yourself what inducements he offers for patronage. At the last regular meeting of Anderson Division, Sons of Temperance, the follow? ing officers were elected to serve the ensu? ing term, viz.: A. W. Todd, W. P.; R. C. Cunningham, W. A.; C. C. Langston, R. S.; Miss Willie Leroy. A. R, S.; John M. Hub bard, F. S.; A. B. Towers, Treas.; L. P. Smith, Chap.; George M. Tolly, C.; John T. Burriss, A. C.; Ham. Webb, A. C. ; Wilton Lee, O. S,; J. H. *:e, P. W. P. The installation will take ..his evening, Chas. C. Langston, D. G. v. ??., officiating. The members are requested to be in attend? ance, as business of importance will be considered. We had a call on Monday last from a little man from across the Savannah who has been sojourning in our town for a week or more who positively refused to tell his name, which we can only account for on the ground that he was ashamed of his daddy, at whose physiognomy gives sufficient evidence that he was none other than the offspring of John McGill, of the Hartwell Sun. In point of looks we must say that our little visitor is an improvement on bis sire, who is not by any means a bad looking man, and in all other particulars promises to be quite his equal. He had both hands full of candy, and would give no other in? formation as to who he was or where he came from except that h? was a "Georgia cracker." Colonel Fry, the Superintendent of the G. & C. B. B., has made the following special rates over his Road to this place for the purpose of accommodating persons de? siring to attend our County Fair: From Columbia $5.10, Alston $4.10, Pom aria $3.80, Prosperity $3.50, Newberry $3.20, Chappels $2.50, Ninety-Six $2.10, New Market $1.85, Greenwood $1.75, Abbeville $1.75, Hodges $1.35, Donnalds 95c, Hohea Path 75c, Belton 40c, Williaraston 70c, Greenville $1.50, Pendleton 55c, Walhalla $1.35. The tickets will be good to return to Slaces where purchased. We hbp?kthis re? action in railroad fare will have the effect of inducing many of the citizens of these towns to. attend our Fair, which \>e sincere? ly trust will be better this year than ever before. (The 32nd annual meeting of tho An? derson County Bible Society was held in the Methodist Church at tbis place on Sunday night, and was largely attend? ed by our people generally. The meet? ing was called to order by Col. J. N. Brown, the President, who stated the objects of the Society and tho order of ex? ercises for tho evening. The congrega? tion united in singing a hymn, after which Rev. D. E. Frierson, D. D., made an in? vocation. Rev. S. B. Jones, D. D., of Pendleton, and Presiding Elder of the Greenville District of the M. E. Church of tbis State* then preached a most ex? cellent sermon from the text, "The heav? ens declare the glory of God and the fir? mament sbeweth his handiwork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sneweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard." A collection was taken amounting to $27, of. er which tbo report of the Treasurer. Mr. A. B. Towers, was submitted, which showed that theSociety had disposed of a largo number of Bibles during the year and that there were six churches and two auxiliary societies co? operating with it in its noble work. Tho following- officers were re-elected ; Pres? ident, Col. J. N. Brown, Vice President Revs. D. E. Frierson, D. D., and J. S. Murray; Secretary, John W. Todd; Treasurer and Depositary, A. B. Towers ; Executive Committee, Rev. W. H. Strickland, Rev. J. E. Carlisle, Rev. T. F. Gadsden, W. J. Ligon, T. M. White, M. L. Sharpe, J. B. Clark, J. A. Brock, J. W. Pocre, M. I. Brock, Thomas Crymes. On motion, Rev. T. P. Bell was added to this Committee. The Presbyterian Church was selected as the next place of annual meeting, and Rev. T. P Bell elected to ?reach the sermon before the Society, he meeting then adjourned. Mb. Editor : A case has been pending j 1 in one of the Trial Justice's Courts of this County recently involving a point of law in which almost all our people are, to a greater or less extent, interested, to-wit: An indictment against a liquor sellor for sell? ing his poisonous stud' to another in suffi? cient quantity to make him drunk, and for continuing to do so after his reason was de? throned, and for being "accessory before the fact" to a crime committed against law and order while thus crazed. This calls to mind j the fact that our .'law-makers in the past have tried to enact such laws as were deemed necessary to protect the lives and property of all the people, and to secure to all the greatest possible amount of peace and happiness. We ore also reminded of the fact that our laws in this regard are [ ignored, trampled upon or taken advantage of to such extent as to endanger civilization itself, and the people have oegun to con? clude there is no help for it, and, in many cases, have said that tl'e good old ship of State must go down in Itonsequence of it.' I am glad to say there \> yel hope abiding in many breasts, which rests upon the change in public opinion with regard to this great curse, the liquor traffic, 'but at the same time upon the laws already upon our statute books, and upon a determination on the part of some to see that those laws are rigidly enforced. That the manifest apathy of our people hitherto is the result in port, at least, of ignorance as to existing laws on the subject of the "sale of liquors," there can be no doubt. And that if their minds were now informed that we already have "line upon line" upon our statute books, all designed for protection against this great j and growing evil, there can likewise be no | doubt. Because the masses are tired of this thing i are beginning to look with horror | upon it j and are inquiring into the laws concerning it, determined to place them? selves in the breach to save their fathers, brothers and sons from ruin, and their mothers, wives and daughters from poverty, disgrace* shame and sorrow. Believing, Mr. Editor, that the minds of | the people are beginning to stir within them upon tbis subject, I take the liberty of ad? dressing you tbis communication and of j asking you to search out of your law books ' all laws' upon making, keeping and selling "spirituous or malt liquors, wine or cider," 1 and publish them from -week to week in your widely circulated and excellent Intel? ligencer. The people can then see what already exists, and, if found insufficient to accomplish the object designed, can make such demand upon their Representatives in the next Assembly as may be necessary to stay the terrible evil, and prevent it sapping . the very life-blood of the nation. ' It will, I am aware, require some time, and may be a heavy strain upon your already overworked mind, as also upon your columns, but it seems to me, sir, the times demand it, and that you as a Repre? sentative of the people will prove yourself a public benefactor by looking into tbis matter, and, if necessary, prepare to legislate upon it. Give us the laws in full, and, when they see, they will act. I make this request "Pbo Bono Poblico." Townville. Mr. ,T. C.

The ginning business is {unusually lively this season. There are as many as 12 gins, 8 of which are public enterprises, in opera-1 tion in the Fork. Those at Townville and Farmer's Store, owned respectively by Mc Carley & Co, and Gantt & Co., take the lead, each of them having ginned about 185 bales up to Saturday. 2 id inst.The Double Springs Baptist Church in this township has been torn down to give place to a fine new one, which is to be erected without de? lay. It is noteworthy that with only one or two exceptions there is not an old church building in this entire Fork couu try. Seren handsome new ones?Townville (Pres.), Townville (Bap.), New Hephzibah (Bap.), Cedar Grove (Meth.)

Lyc?rgus. Williams ton. Since the publication of our last notes a town election has been held here, whicn re- j suited in the election of Capt. J. W. Dacus, Intendant, and Messrs. J. T. Rogers, Austin W. Clement, A. H. Ford and J. J. Cooley,, Wardens. Capt. Dacus is a young man of j energy and ability; the Wardens are all first class gentlemen, and we are satisfied that under the administration of this ticket the town will continue to prosper.Messrs. Ben. and John Dacus arc opening up a splendid stock of goods in Dr. Epting's store room, known as the "Red House." These gentlemen, brothers to our worthy towns? men J. W. and W. C. Dacus, aregentlemen of acknowledged skill and energy in what? ever they undertake. They have been suc? cessful as farmers, and will doubtless be successful as merchants. Success attend them in their new vocation!.Capt. M. P. Martin, one of our most highly respected citizens, recently left our town to locate in Anderson. Though he has been in Wil liamston only about a year, he has, by his uprightness of character and gentlemanly bearing, very much endeared himself to the entire community. Everybody speaks well of him, and everybody regrets" to see him leave. He goes to your town to take charge of a beef market. My word for it, Capt. Martin will never sell you a piece of bad beef, if he knows it.Our young friend, Mr. W. W. Brown, was, a few days ago, elected Principal of the male school here. Worthy successor to the beloved Pickle, now him? self a student in Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore. Mr. Brown, a graduate of the Furnian University, was a faithful and suc? cessful student, and, we have no doubt, will prove a successful teacher.
