LOCAL NEWS. TV. W. KEYS, Local Editor. BRIEF MENTION. It is about time for another hot supper. The Town Clock was shipped from Boston on the 5th instant. Cotton is still declining. Good middling was worth 101 yesterday. Mr. W. D. Brown has moved into his new residence on River street Court for Oconee county convened in Walhalla on Monday morning. Wild turkeys range within less than a mile of the public square of our town. Mr. W. W. EoUsnd, of the Fork, sold fifteen bales of cotton in town on Tuesday. None but Sabbath breakers go out to see the new street and railroad Sunday after? noons. Miss Tula Neville, a charming and most excellent young lady from Walhalls, is visiting relatives and friends in our town SJjffid county. Messrs. J. p. Sullivan & Co. advertise two hundred barrels of flour in this issue. Their stock of groceries is always complete and is sold at short profits. . Appointments of the Y. M. C.

Car? penter, in Broodaway township, on last Monday, after a lingering illness of con? sumption. The dedication of the Catholic church bos been postponed from the 20th instant till the 8th of April, by' which time it will be completed. Bishop Lynch, of Charles? ton, will conduct the dedicatory services. Married, on the 5th instant, by W. F. M.

An influx of imrni \. grants:, next fall would remedy the defect ; another year. The peach trees are blooming at least a month later this year than last, and every body thinks, therefore, that we will have . plenty of fruit. We hope so, but the fruit was not killed last year until the 3d day of April nor the year before until the 4th day of ApriL Mr.'A. M. Duffle, a promising young lawyer from Chester, baa located at this : place"for the practice of his profession, and has formed a copartnership with Maj. S. P. Dendy, of Walhalla.' He is also associated ?with ^T. B. Dnffle..& Co.,.of Washington, D. C. See advertisements. Dr. Joseph O. Wilhite, youngest son of | Dr. P. A. Wilhite, graduated in medicine last week at the Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, and returned home on Mon? day prepared to enter upon the practice of j his profession. Joe is full of energy and ? gives promise of future usefulness. An order went into effect on the Colum : bia & Greenville Railroad and its branches I on the 15th>4nstanC prohibiting all freight : trains from transporting passengers. We understand this is caused by the liability to j accidents on freight trains. It willbepar SL ticularly hard on the commercial pilgrims, who do a great deal of their traveling on freight trains. Among the visiting lawyers in Anderson during our recent Court were Col. J. S. Cothran, Capt. W. H. Parka:, Mr. T. P. Cothran, Mr. D. H. McGill and Mr. E. A. Graydon, of Abbeville; CoL J. L. Orr, Col. W. H. Perry, Capt. G. G. Wells, Maj. J. H. Whitner and Judge T. H. Cooke, of Green? ville; Maj. S. P. Dendy and Col. J. J. Nor? ton, of Walhalla. We print on our first page this week an abstract of the laws of this State relating to the public roads and bridges, which was carefully prepared for the County Commis? sioners of Oconee county and reproduced In our columns at the request of the Clerk of oar own Board. It should be carefully read by all our citizens, and the paper carefully laid away for future reference. A correspondent of the Walhalla Courier, writing from Townville, in this county, says: "Messrs. Farmer & Bro. and Mr. McCarley, mercantile firms at this place, have decided to transfer their business shortly, the former to Anderson C. H. and the latter to Seneca City." Such men as the Messrs. Farmer will always be cordially welcomed by all classes of our citizens. After a two weeks' session the Circuit Court for this county adjourned on last Friday evening. The work of the term > was very heavy, and Judge Eerahaw dis? played great energy, ability and courtesy in disposing of it. His impartiality, coupled with his clear conception of the law, has won for him the admiration of our entire bar. The Judge left on Saturday morning for Walhalla. There will be a meeting of Associate "Crange No. 1, P. of H., at Town Creek on I next Saturday at 10 o'clock. Hon. B. F. w. Cray ton will read an essay on Ensilage, and ? CoL J. W. Norris, D. H. Russell, W. B. Watson, A. B. Bowden, Dr. J. G. Dackett and Wm. McWhorter will each read an ?f- essay on Cotton Culture. An interesting meeting is expected, and the public genera 1 ? < ly is invited to attend. ??j Miss Mary A. Robinson, daughter of Mrs. Eliza Robinson, of this place, died at the y~ residence of her mother on last Saturday morning after an illness of two or three weeks. She was 51 years of age, and is mourned by a large circle of relatives in this and adjoining counties. The remains were interred in the Presbyterian graveyard i on Sunday afternoon in the presence of a large concourse of friends, after funeral services by the pastor. The Brown Brothers are opening out a large and excellent stock of general mer? chandise in the new store room east of the Masonic building, and desire the trading j public to know of their whereabouts and that they are prepared to furnish goods of any quality and in any quantity at prices most reasonable. They are enterprising if young men, and possess the superior busi? ness qualifications of prudence, sagacity, m energy and industry. Their advertisement will appear next week. The first installment of the 95,000 sub? scribed by the citizens of Bordeau totfnsh ip, I Abbeville county, to the capital stock of the i Savannah Valley Railroad, has been paid ? over to Mr. W. S. Llgon, the Treasurer of - the Company. The amount was $1,666, v which is the largest sum yet paid by any I township through which the road will pass. The remaining two-thirds of the subscrip? tion is secured by a strong bond, which provides for its payment in two equal an Imcnts. Bordeau has done well, Mr. J. P. Phillips, of Ninety -Six, and one of the most prosperous and successful mer? chants in the up-country, has recently been on a visit to Anderson, where he is well known and highly esteemed. He was formerly a citizen of our town, and his many friends here are watching his success? ful mercantile career with a great deal of interest and pleasure. He has never lost interest in Anderson, and in order to keep up with her affairs has been a constant reader of the Iktelligexcep.. May he live long and prosper. The total number of delinquent tax? payers to the S. V. and A. & F. B. V. R. Rs. in the several townships in this county sub? scribing to the capital stock of the same is 1.308, apportioned among the townships as follows: Belton 289, Williamston 169, Cen treville 197, Dark Corner 98, Hall 76, Sa? vannah 143, Varennes 176, Anderson 160. The whole number of taxpayers is about 2,800, and the above exhibit shows that in the aggregate a little over half the.number have paid. The books of the town and county treasurers were closed on Thursday last, 10th instant, and at the expiration of the fifteen days allowed for taxing up the penalty on unpaid amounts executions will be issued against all delinquents forthwith. The coal vein in this county, owned by Mr. P. A. Masters, on Seneca River, has been examined to some extent by Capt. A. C. Laughlin, representing the Department of Agriculture, but as it appears that there are two or more veins in close proximity to each other, a further investigation of the locality is necessary, on a larger scale, in order to find its true extent. Capt. Laugh? lin will make a furlher examination very soon, when a large quantity, if it proves I valuable, will be excavated and taken to Columbia to be tested for gas, a former test having given very satisfactory results. The j sample of the coal which we have seen, I however, does not give promise of any very I valuable results. It is too gritty, and ap? pears to have very little combustible mate rial in it. There is a possibility, however, j that the quality will improve as the vein is I followed below the surface. j In a note to the Southern Clirislian Advo- I cote Rev. J. E. Carlisle, of this place, has I this to say in reference to the prohibition I movement now receiving attention in this county: "We need, and propose to have, reform in the license system in this town. We have six bar-rooms, well patronized I and flourishing. Only strong measures will suffice. I think it a good plan to send up. to the next session of the Legislature long petitions with the headings given by brother Lander; but this is not enongh. Some pressure may be brought to bear on the Legislature, which will prevent the passage of such a law for the entire State, thongb I hope not. Failing to get that, why not try for it for individual counties and towns? I suggest that two petitions be prepared, to be signed by the same persons, one for the State, the other for the County. If the former fails, the latter may succeed, at least for those counties whose representatives, or a majority of them, favor the law." ! In aprivate letter to Gen. W. W. Humph? reys, Gen. M. W. Gary, of Edgefield, says that the grading of the Edgefield and Aiken Railroad will be completed in the course of three or four months, and that the Compa? ny has been assured by the anthorities of the South Carolina Railroad that within three months from the time the grading is j completed they will have the trains run- I ning to Edgefield Court House. He also says that the people of Edgefield recognize the importance of making connection at I the Greenwood & Augusta Road with the Savannah Volley Road, and that they pro pose to go to work at an early day to raise funds with which to continue the grading on to the point of connection with the Savannah Valley. This is indeed good j news for the advocates of the last named enterprise, and will doubtless inspire them with new hope. The completion of these I roads will give Anderson direct connection with both Charleston and Augusta, and will not only build np our town but will I also open up and develop one of the finest 1 sections of country in the South. He came from a far-off section of the County, but was not near as green- as he I looked to be. The hair on his head and ] the downy growth on his upper lip were fiery red, aSd though his general appear ancewas^newhat uncouth,he nevertheless had some - idea of the harmony of colors. While standing on the siderralk on Granite Row, silently surveying the town and mo? lesting no one, Ben Collins, the barber, who I has an eye to business in all of his inter? course with men, looked upon him and de? termined at once that there was a chance to make a quarter, and approaching him I with his usual familiarity, said: "Sir-r, wouldn't you like to have your moustache blacked ? 'Pears to me it would improve I your looks very much; and then, sir-r," he said, with a smile, "the young ladies will all admire you so much more!" To I which Ahe young man replied, abruptly, I "No, I believe not; my head is too red for that." "Ah, sir-r, I've blacked the mous? tache of many a man whose head was a j great deal redder than yours is, and you j don't know, sir-r, how much it improved I their looks. You'd better come, sir-r, and I let me dress yours np a little; it won't cost J you much," persisted Ben. "No." replied j the young man, "it wouldn't look well to have my moustache blacked with such a red head." "Well, sir-r, you could very easily tie your head up in a handkerchief," Ben responded, ingeniously, The young man smiled out of one corner of his mouth, and moved away. The Abbeville Press and Banner says that "it has been reported that the Clyde Com? pany, which bought the Greenville <fc Co? lumbia Railroad, has in contemplation the building of the Atlantic and French Broad Valley Railroad," but does not vouch for the authenticity of the report, "having heard it in a general way." It is proposed, as our readers will remember, to extend this road from Belton by Honea Path, Donalds, Due West and Abbeville to the Greenwood and Augusta Road at or near Trickem. We understand that the people ! of Abbeville connty are somewhat divided on the question of voting a tax to help build the road through that county, and in order to settle the question petitions have been circulated in the different townships for signers, praying the County Commis? sioners to order an election on the question at an early day. The Press and Banner favors building the road by taxation on the ground that all the citizens along the route "will be equally benefited by the reduction ? in freights, the increased value of property, the business, social, religious and school -\dYantages which will flow from it," and says that if it is attempted "to build it by private subscription the liberal man will be forced to give more than his quota to make up the deficiencies of the less liberal and progressive ones." "When the County Commissioners put the question before us, let us Yote the tax and proceed to build the road." says ouf contemporary earnestly and enthusiastically. The building of the road through that section would certainly devel? op its resources and build up the town of Abbeville Very considerably, and we shall watch the progress of the matter with great interest. As yet we have heard nothing of the circulation of a petition in Honea Path township asking for an election on the question, and in case the citizens down there should remain lethargic we appre? hend our Abbeville friends will be discom? fited, Rev. W. H. Strickland, in a letter to the Baptist Courier, gives the following informa? tion about the manufacture of commercial fertilizers, while writing about Port Royal, which wc reprint for the edification of the general public: "We saw in the warehouse on the wharf L'0,000 tons guano. It had been ground np in Dublin from the bone purchased at Charleston or Bull River, and brought back to be sold in the United States. Thus it had crossed the ocean twice. Capt. McFall called our attention to the old fashioned honesty of these guano dealers. The phosphate all lay in on e pile. It will be sacked, branded as of a dozen different kinds and qualities, with a different analy? sis stamped on each, professing to have been made in Baltimore at the 'Patapsco Phos? phate Works,' or at Norfolk or somewhere else; and thus when a merchant orders ' Whan's Raw Bone,' it is sacked out of that pile; and 'Etiwan' or 'Sea Fowl' or 'John Merriman/ &a, all from that same pile. The agent of 'Pacific' is eloquent over the special elements in that fertilizer for cotton, | while the seller of 'Baugh and Burger' is sure, from actual experience, that his is best suited to produce 'good lint,' &c. The hon? est old farmers, in August and September, meet and eat peaches and melons, and walk over their farms and discu3S the relative merits of their different fertilizers, and little reck that all these different brands and analyses came from one bank at Port Royal, and was not manufactured in Baltimore or Charleston, but Dublin." Fair Flay Correspondence. It is seldom I have anything to write you from this place, and I have none now, but i will send you a word or two on things in general. The foremost thought among the people in this community is naturally about farm? ing; but it can well bo said that cotton monopolizes more of the thought, time and lands of the farmers than any other farm product. This entire attention to one crop, and especially to cotton, is very detrimental to the true interests of the farmer. Diver? sified crops are what we need, and our farmers must have them to be successful. Last year's acreage in cotton was larger than that of the preceding year, and so will this year's acreage exceed last year's. I am speaking now especially of this imme? diate section, bat still, I doubt not bat that it would hold good if applied to the whole South. Corn, wheat, barley, oats and rye all grow well here, and can be raised profit? ably, though, notwithstanding this fact, our people buy their corn and flour from the Northwest. They are making less effort year by year to make home supplies of corn and wheat. This year's acreage ef wheat is at least twenty-five per cent, less than lost year's, and no doubt next fall the diminution will be equally as great as this year's has been over the last. The oat crop here is generally very small. Barley and rye you seldom ever see. This may look bad, but nevertheless you will, I think, find it to be true Guano is extensively used here. Some of our people are highly elated at the passage of the stock or fence law for a portion of this county, and there are some pretty sour faces on the other side "o' the fence." This latter class are not numerous. Before three years pass over our heads op? position to this law will have passed away, and all persons will cry out with one voice, "It is good." This law is very beneficial to the State; and especially is it beneficial to the lower section of Oconee. For our town I can say that, for sobriety, morality and children, it compares favora? bly with any town in the State. Our mer? chants are wide-awake and enterprising, and we have a large school, there being eighty names on the register. It is more flourish? ing than for some time past. The health of this community is very good. The mumps, though, are on the rampage, and are attacking all ages and classes of mankind. They are certainly showing no partiality. A number of our citizens have determined to have the German Carp, and are preparing for them and have made application for them to the proper authorities. W. P. C.
