LOCAL NEWS. W. W. KEYS, Local Editor. BRIEF MENTION. The town clock keeps railroad time. Good middling cotton was worth 10J yes? terday. Dr. Lander, of Williamston, was in town on Saturday. The farmers are planting corn and scat? tering guano. The colored Methodists are having a big revival meeting. "T. H. E." makes.an earnest plea in this issue for the old field pine. The fruit survived the heavy frosts of Sunday and Monday mornings. ! . There was a rain , and thunder storm on Tuesday afternoon, and a freeze the night following. Messrs. Jones & Wiles now have about twenty hands at work on the Savannah Valley Railroad: j Anderson Grange will maet on Friday at 10 a. m. and Pomona Grange on Sat or day at the same hour. The ordinance of the Lord Supper will be administered at the Baptist Church on next Sunday morning. Very little cotton is being brought in now, though there is yet a great deal in the county being held back for a higher price. The err!argement of Mr. Tolly's furniture warerooms is about completed, and he now has the largest stock of furniture in the State. I We direct attention to the advertisement of C. A. Reed, Agent, which appears else? where. He guarantees satisfaction to all of his customers. The Spirit of the Times is the name of a new paper started at Sumter, the first num? ber of which reached us last week Sumter now has three papers. Messrs. Orr & Sloan, the new druggists, are enterprising and energetic, and are building up 'a good business. See their new advertisement, and give them a call, j ~Mi?3 Sal lie Bowie has a word for our lady J readers in this issue to which their attention is directed. She has a nice stock of milli? nery goods, and only asks a trial by the public. Appointments of the Y. M. C. A. for next Sunday: To conduct the afternoon meeting, at 4.30 o'clock, A. P. Hnbbard; Poor House committee, Joseph N. Brown, B. Frank Mauldin. Jim Miles, a colored trainman on the freight train cn the Blue Ridge division, had his right arm badly mashed while coupling cars at Bel ton on Tuesday morn- I ing by the breaking of a bumper. Up to the 29th, $111,300 had been sub? scribed to.the capital stock of the Columbia and Lexington" Water Power Company, whose purpose is to utilize the Colombia Canal by erecting a cotton factory on it ; Bel ton Lodge, A. F. M., will hereafter hold its regular monthly communication on the afternoon of the first Thursday of ] each month, beginning with next Th?rs- j day, 7th April. The hour for meeting will be 2 o'clock. The young people of Bel ton enjoyed a dancing party Friday evening last at the j v- residence of Dr. F. K. Breaffeala. Some of the Anderson boys went down to the party, and kept things moving until 2 o'clock in the morning. The South Carolina Presbytery will meet at Newberry on next Wednesday, 6th of April. The delegates elect from the Pres? byterian church at this place are Rev. D. E. Frierson, D. D., and Capt W. S. Sharpe; alternate, G. F. Tolly. Mrs. Anna Leak has opened a millinery store in the south end of Brick Range, and will be pleased to serve the ladies of the town and county in mantua-making or to j furnish them with -millinery goods of any kinds. See advertisement. Col. T. Stobo Farrow, has purchased the interest of his. late partner, Mr. Daniel, in that excellent weekly, the Spartanburg Herald, and will hereafter be the sole pro? prietor. The fferald deserves continued success, and will doubtless have it. Henry Hill, the colored man who killed Mr. T. V. Skelton in Hartwell, Ga., last month, was tried and convicted of murder last week, and sentenced to be hanged on the22d of April. We understand that it will be the first sentence of capital punish? ment ever executed in Hart county. Miss Willard, of Chicago, has been lec? turing the people of Columbia on temper? ance, and it is said has accomplished con? siderable good there. We do not know of a place in South Carolina that was in greater need of her services, and it is to be regretted she did not stay there logger. We are requested to return thanks to the citizens of the town for their contributions to the erection of the Catholic church, and to request those who have not paid their subscriptions to do so as soon as possible, as it is desired to complete the building in time for dedication on the 8th of May. The attention of those interested in Sun? day School work is directed to the call for a County Sunday School Convention pub? lished in another column. The meeting is called for the purpose of electing five rep? resentatives to the State Convention, which convenes in Columbia on the 12th of April. The Florence Times, in an article on Temperance, asks this question, which is commended to the consideration of the fair sex: "Are the ladies, who are taking such an active interest in the prohibitory meas? ure in the State, not to blame for the failure to show a discountenance of the evils in their social relations?" We were pleased to meet in town last week Messrs. Wm. M. and John A. Wilcox, of Elberton, Ga. They are both Anderson boys, and we are glad to know are meeting with success in their adopted home. Will is running a furniture store, and will soon Lave a monopoly of the business, while John is local editor and publisher of the Elberton News, an excellent weekly. The HartweH Sun published what Rev. W. H. Strickland said about the guanos, and added: "The above is too funny. The idea of all the guanos sold in the South be? ing made in Old Ireland! McFall used to be a good joker, but the idea of playing off on an innocent preacher in snch style is too bad. If there ever was a pound of guano in the down-trodden Emeral Isle, we guess it was sold there for snnff." Mr. James Crawford, who removed from Hall township in this county to near Hart well, Ga., about the middle of January last, died very suddenly of heart disease on the evening of Tuesday, 22d instant, in the 85th year of his age. He was a native of Ireland, and came to America when thirteen years old with his parents, who settled in this county, where the deceased was raised and ever resided until his recent removal across the Savannah. He was consequently a cit? izen of this section for 71 or 72 years, and j was always held in high esteem by his ac? quaintances for his good character and up? right life. His remains were interred in the Methodist graveyard at Hartwell. Abbeville county lost heavily by the freshet last week. Seven or eight public bridges were washed away, and many oth? ers considerably damaged. It is economy for County Commissioners to always build such bridges as will not be washed away by every rise in the streams, but will stand the heaviest freshets. It would cost some? thing, it is true, but who doubts that it would be the cheapest in the end ? Wilder, a little six-year-old son of Mr. M. L. Poore, was drowned in Big Creek, upon Maj. J. T. Dean's plantation, in this County, on Thursday the 17th inst., while attempting to cross the creek upon a log. He and an elder brother, about eight years of age, were going to their fish traps, when the little fellow fell in the creek, which was swollen and some six feet deep, and was washed down some two hundred yards and drowned, despite the heroic but unavailing efforts of his little brother to save him. The body was recovered as soon as assist? ance could be called, but too late to revive the child. The parents are deeply sympa? thized with in their sore bereavement. Blot and Marder at Pendle ton. On last Saturday night a party of some ten or twelve negroes assembled in a negro's room at Pendleton for the purpose of passing the night in a gambling spree. At a late hour of the night- the noise of a serious riot attracted several gentlemen of the town to the scene of the disturbance, where they found Paul Richardson stabbed to death and laying outside of the door. As they approached some seven or eight negroes ran out, and they found James and William Green and Milton Wright badly cut in several places. No arrests were made until Sunday morning, and no investiga? tion had until Monday. In the meantime Ben. Keels, who was one of the party, had made his escape, and when the inquest was held no testimony was elicited against any one except Milton Wright, who is a Demo? cratic negro and one of those who were cut. The negro who was killed bad a fire-iron clenched in his band, and all of the indica? tions point to a fearful conflict in which many, if not all of those present, were en? gaged. The delay in making arrests and allowing ihe parties engaged to confer to? gether gave them an opportunity to con? spire to put the charge off upon Milton Wright, which, it is believed, they attempt ? ed to do. Wright was the only one held upon the inquest, which was taken by Trial Justice W. H. D. Gaillard, Esq., acting Coroner. He was committed to the calaboose in Pendleton for safe keeping, but before Tuesday morning bad succeeded in making his escape by breaking out at the top of the building. He has not been heard of since. Thus, a-most dangerous riot and unjusti? fiable murder has been committed, and the criminals have not been secured. We have not seen the official papers o? the inquest, but presume that it has not been concluded, and will be vigorously pushed until the whole truth is ascertained. The occurrence is one of too serious a nature to be lightly dismissed. The guilty men should be found ou? and hung. Temperance Lectures. .Mr. L. P. Smith, Grand Scribe of the Sons of Temperance in South Carolina, went to Atlanta, Ga., on Saturday, where he met Hon. Edward Carswell, tho Canadian tem? perance lecturer, and arranged a programme for his visit to this State. He will lecture at the following places on the days men? tioned : Orangeburg, April 4th and 5th. Newberry, April 6th and 7th. Greenwood, April 8th. Abbeville, April 9th and 10th. Anderson, April 11th and 12th. Belton, April 13th. Spartanburg, April 14th and 15th. tin ion, April 16 th. Camden, April 18th. Florence, April 19th. Marion, April 20th and 21st. Darlington, April 22nd and 23rd. Cheraw, April 24th and 25th. Mr. Carswell is one of the best lecturers that has ever visited this State, and will doubtless be greeted with large audiences wherever he goes. Remember his appoint? ments for Anderson, and be sure to hear him both evenings. An Explanation. Mb. Editor: You were pleased to repro? duce in your excellent paper a part of my letter of "Editorial Correspondence," prin? ted in Baptist Courier of March 10th inst. After the manuscript had left my hands, i found that i had made a statement some? what inaccurate, and should have corrected it sooner but have been away from home from March 3d till to-day. I wish to ex? plain as follows: Captain McFall and myself had no in? tention of misrepresenting any phosphate company at all, but laughed over the matter as it was exhibited at Port Royal harbor. i am informed that some guanos have bona fide factories in the United States, and make and sell their own fertilizers, while others do not do so, but just claim to do so. Now, what i said about "Soluble Pacific," "Eti wan," et al., was given just in way of illus? tration of the statement i was making. It may be that my inaccuracy of statement extends to other brands mentioned in my letter. If so, i cheerfully make the correc? tion. As to the main facts i was not incor? rect nor inaccurate. 20,000 tons i saw, and out of that pile, ground in Dublin and lying there in bulk in Port Royal harbor, were being sacked thousands of bags and stamped with different brands and sold in various parts of the country. i write this as i see from your present issue that my esteemed and valued friend, Mr. W. S. Ligon, finds it necessary to correct my statement, so far as "Soluble Pacific goes." The whole matter was regarded as a joke, and was published as a matter of pleasantry. As you published the extract from Baptist Courier you will please print the above that it may be seen by the readers of the intel? LIGENCES alSO. So far as i am concerned, i shall be glad to discuss with my friends, not guanos again, but melons raised from the stimula? ting effects of any and all kinds of phos Ebates, and as ranch of the article seems to e ground in Dublin, i trust that after it Beta into the soil of our many South Coro? na friends that it may go on doubling and thribllng in.its beneficial effects, and that we shxl have a most satisfactory crop of cotton and sell it at 121 cents per pound. With kindness for all and malice toward none, i am respectfully yours, Wm. Henry Strickland. March 24, 1881. Gen. Mlcah Jenkins. Anderson, S. C, March 31, 1881. Ma. Editob : Recently the remains of the late Gen. Micah Jenkins were removed from Summerville, S. C, to the city of Charleston, and laid to rest in the beautiful Magnolia Cemetery. Active steps are being taken to erect a monument over the last resting place of this distinguished soldier, and that the survivors of his famous Brigade in Anderson County may have an opportunity of contributing to this lauda? ble purpose, an informal meeting of survi? vors of the Brigade was held in the Judge of Probate's office on the 25th inst., when it was resolved to appoint a committee to solicit subscription, to be applied to the erection of this monument.' The following is the committee: W. W. Humphreys, John W. Daniels, D. 8. Maxwell, A. J. Sitton, James W. Poore, James A. Drake, D. L. Cox, R. V. Acker and P. K. Norris. Each member of the committee will be expected to canvass his immediate neigh? borhood ? at once, and to report with amounts collected to an adjourned meeting, to be held in the Court House on salesday in April. The memory of this chivalrous soldier is lovingly enshrined in the breasts of all who followed his knightly plume, and we feel assured that every old soldier will be but too glad of the opportunity of testifying bis love and admiration of the great chief who so often led them to victory. W. W. Humphreys. Lo! the Old Field Pine. Mr. Editor: In passing through the va? rious neighborhoods of this and adjoining counties, where pleasure or business called me, I have been struck with the universal destruction of the pine forests to be seen everywhere. Ever since the mania for the production of cotton seized our farmers, among other direful results likely to flow from said hallucination there is none more deplorable or likely to produce more of dis? aster than the general clearing of our pine forests. The oak forests, at least since the adoption of the stock law, have been com? paratively free from destruction, but the said exemption for the oak has produced a corresponding exaction upon the pine, which, unless arrested, will in a very few years denude our whole country of the in? estimable blessing of numerous pine forests. In some respects, the pine forest is more desirable than the oak, and on every farm a sufficient amount of land should be de? voted exclusively to the growth of the pine. And this, too, for the double pur? pose of improving the sanitary condition of the country as well as the importance of preserving for the uses of those who are to follow us the valuable pine timber for fuel and building purposes. In regard to health, the pine forest is regarded everywhere as one of the greatest preventives of malarial fevers. In some neighborhoods where such fevers have prevailed to an alarming extent, certain localities have escaped,and no known causo for the exemption, even in the judg? ment of the physicians, than an interven? ing pine forest between tho marshy bottom and the residence of the fortunate family. In this country, once the natural home of the oak, the pine, the hickory, an .1 other illimitable forest growth, we scarcely real? ize the great necessity of preserving to our children a proportionate forest growth, not only for their comfort and health, but as a great preservative of the fertility of the soil. In other countries not blessed as oui-s once was with a dense forest growth, this ques? tion of forests is exciting the attention of legislative bodies, and they are wisely and successfully providing for the propagation of forests over their arid and treeless plains. Shall we, whose only care should be "to pre? serve a moiety of our superabundant forest growth for the benefit of posterity, that they may not have to reproach us with the su? preme folly of a reckless waste of the God given gifts of a kind Providence in the noble forests that once loomed up all around us in this magnificent country. Allow me to put in at icnst one plea in behalf of the forests of our countrv. "Woodman, spare that tree." T. H. R. County Sunday School Convention. The Sunday Schools of Anderson County, irrespective of denomination, are requested to send each two delegates to a County Convention, to be held in the Court House at 2.30 o'clock on Saturday afternoon, '9th of April, for the purpose of electing five representatives to the State Sunday School Convention, to be held in Columbia on the 12th, 13th and 14th of April next. a. B. Towers, H. G. scudday, W. W. Keys. Anderson, S. C, March 29, 1881. Tribute of Respect. At a regular communication of Pendleton Lodge No. 34, A. F. M., held in March, 1881, the following preamble and resolu? tions were unanimously adopted: Whereas it hath pleased Almighty God, the Great Architect of the Universe, to re? move from our midst our worthy brother, William Debick Rochester, who, with little warning, was stricken down at his home by heart disease on the 1st day of December, A. L. 5880, therefore be it Resolved, That wo deeply deplore the de? mise of our worthy and welf-beloved brother, W. D. Rochester, whose career amongst us was a pleasure to ourselves and a profit to the fraternity. Resolved, That we sincerely sympathize with the afflicted family of our deceased brother, and trust that what now seems an affliction may, in the inscrutable wisdom of Providence, prove a blessing to him and to us. Resolved, That in the death of brother Rochester, Masonry has lost an upright and zealous advocate, and this Lodge a warm friend and companion. Resolved, That this Lodge be, draped in mourning, und that each brother wear the usual badge, for thirty days. Resolved, That a page of our Record Book be set apart to his memory, and inscribed with the date of his birth, death and Ma? sonic career. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the afflicted family of the de? ceased brother, and also be published in the Anderson Intelligences.
