We direct attention to the advertisement in this issue of the Carolina Collegiate In? stitute, which will hereafter be conducted solely as a male school. Prof. W. J.

S. Ligon, Treasurer of the Savan? nah Valley Railroad Company, has recently received $3,500 from the Treasurer of Abbe? ville County, which, with the 8671 received from the same source last spring, makes an aggregate of $4,171 paid by the taxpayers in Lowndesville, Magnolia and C'olhoun townships, in that County, towards the con? struction of the road. The following officers were elected and installed at the last meeting of Furman Lodge, A. F. M? to serve the next year: I -B. Ft Shirley, W. M.; J. R. Carter, S. W.; ? J G. Sears, J.

Tbe Knights of Honor will have their ^Annual supper on the evening of January 6th, after the installation of the following ^Officers, elected at the regular meeting of * the Lodge on Wednesday evening of last I^Week: Dr. W.

Maxwell was elected to npresent tbe Lodge in tbe Grand Lodge, W[tb Dr. R. F. Divver as alternate. The wives of the Knights of Honor ought to rebel or do something else to spite their selfish husbands. A proposition was made the other night to invite the wives of the members to the annual supper of the Lodge, but it was promptly "set down on" by the members, and as far as beard from no one but the mover of the measure favored it. The women ought to pay them back in some way or other. It is a source of great pleasure to the peo? ple of the town generally to know that Rev. J. E. Carlisle has been reappointed to the pastorate of the Methodist Church at this place, by the State Conference. Mr. Carlisle has been pastor of the Church he:e for two years past, during which time he has en? deared himself to the members of bis church and congregation, and impressed our people generally most favorably oy bis earnest pie? ty and consistent Christian life. Mrs. E. T. Glover, formerly of Anderson, had her handsome residence in the city of Greenville destroyed by fire on last Sunday evening at about 5 o'clock. The fire origi? nated from a chimney in an extension in the rear of her dwelling, and spread so rap? idly that all efforts to extinguish the flames were futile. All of her furniture and house? hold goods were saved, even the window blinds and doors being wrenfthed from their hinges. The building was insured for$4,000, which will nearly cover the entire loss. A colored man by the name of Rich Bobo was shot and killed at a colored wedding in Greenville County on hist Thursday night bv one of two parties?Enoch Seawright or Abe Abraham, both colored. They have both been lodged in Greenville jail to await trial. The fact was developed at the inquest over Bobo's body that every man at the wedding except one had a pistol. This is the third similar murder that has occurred within a radius of three miles during the last three months. No idea could be ob? tained of the motives for Bobo's killing J beyond the general impression that there was a woman in the case. "We clip the following from the Greenville Enterprise and Mountaineer, and commend its teaching to the citizens of our own town, to which it is equally as applicable as to Green? ville : "There are many poor families in the city, who find it pretty hard to get along, and when the joyous season of Christmas arrives, may not have money to buy their children thethingsthatchildhood yearns for. Let those who are prosperous bear tins in mind, and let every such one make it his determination to carry sunshine and pleas? ure to at least one poor household by pro? viding ? Christmas gifts for the children therein. Look around your neighborhood or in your acquaintances, and the house can be found. God bos beeu kind to you?be kind to some one else in turn. Such an act will increase your own enjoyment when the little ones around your fireside revel in glee and gladsome mirth at what Santa Claus has brought them. In your plenty do not forget those who are less favored and whose hearts can be made mirthful and happy with but a few dollars at most. No child should go without something in its little stocking on Christmas eve." line fence question, and comments at length, in its last issue on our article of week bet?re lost on the subject, in which it says that "if the Act has not been carried out to a letter the deviation has been in favor of Anderson County," and that "the legitimate and proper portion for Anderson County to pay is $1,481.98, .and that said amount is the same it would have been bad the fence been built along the line of railroad." The Sen? tinel may believe these statements, but it will hardly succeed in convincing anybody else of their correctness who will take the. trouble to examine into the accounts and the Act authorizing the building %f the fence. We do not care to bandy words with our good neighbor about the matter, and will simply say that when the account is properly apportioned and presented to the Commissioners of this County it will be paid, but not until then. We do not know what the views of the new Commissioners are about the matter, but we feel justified in saying that they will do whatever is right and proper. Let the Commissioners of Pickens and their "amanuensis," the Senti? nel, examine the law again, and see if their eyes, which are evidently blinded by self interest, cannot bejopened to their full duty in regard to the line fence. 1 Mr. R. W. Todd furnishes us with the following concerning the cause of blind staggers and a remedy for the disease: "I am fully pursuaded, from an investigation of the cause of the disease, that it is noth? ing more nor less than inflammation of the brain, caused by improper food and treat? ment. Blasted. corn, or such corn as is usually made on thin land, partly unsound, is-productive of blindstaggers. It is well known that there was an unusual amount of blast in corn the present year. There is also an unusual amount of unsound corn, the ends of many ears apparently sound being totally unfit for horse food, which should be shelled off and thrown to the pigs. During the years 1S54 and 1858 there was considerable fatality among horses from this disease, which 1 was thoroughly con? vinced was produced by the cause stated above. In '54 I had a horse to die of the disease, and in '58 had another violently at? tacked with it. lbad heard Enoch Breazeale say the only remedy was to crack the skull between the eyes with a chisel. Several good judges of horses and their diseases pronounced this a hopeless case. With such assistance as I could command, how? ever, I cnt in the skin of the forehead a gash about four inches and skinned it one inch on either side, and about one inch above the curl I bored through the skull with a large gimlet, and from the garden I procured some garlic, which I placed under the skin and sewed tip the incision ; and then turned the horse out to die. Instead of dying, he began to improve, and in 24 hours was ap? parently well. If I bad a home afflicted with blindstaggers I would use this same remedy. Others can do as they please."

It is a huge undertaking, and a force of from 3U to 4U hauus is constantly employed. The work is probably about half dune, und has already cost, say $1,500.The citizens of this place and vicinity have been fur some lime discus-dog the idea of a branch road to connect this place witli the Air Line at either Westminster or Seneca City. Ap? plication has been made to the present Leg? islature lor a charter fur the proposed road, und it is hoped it may be obtained without deluy. It is understood that the Air Line authorities oncourage the project, and will aid in the construction of tue road. An extended notice of tue enterprise cannot be giften in this connection, but it may be said, however, that the road would tap a fine funning region, and greatly contribute to the unbuilding of Townville and the sur? rounding country. Qitijccy. O.ir Temperance Work. Wu arc glad to know that many through? out the County are expecting to licarsome? thing of the result nf the temperance work, which, as far as we arc concerned, ended a few days ago. The enterprise was begun late in the fall when the whole County was unusually busy gathering the generous crops. As therefore was feared at some places the work was not appreciated as would otherwise have been expected. Yet, on the other hand, from no few neighborhoods where we thought little would bo done, such lists of signatures were sent as could have been gotten by nothing less than workers. The two months of work procured almost 2.000 signatures to each petition. The petition for the local option law was signed bv a few more than the petition for the prohibition of the sale of liquor in Charleston. Two facts have been very encouraging to us : the colored people have taken hold of tho work with confidence and enthusiasm ; and a number of the signers were men wno drink ?a few signatures being gotten even in some of the barrooms of the County ! With the final report of this committee let no one think the work completed, for whatever may be gained by the temperance campaign of the year in various parts of the State, we can afford but that the active, systematic, definite temperance work should be begun on I v.
