Bell has aa fine a field of clover on his farm above town as was ever seen >n this county at this .season of the year. The editor-in-chief is away from home this week, which accounts for the small amount of editorial matter in this issue. The McStuilh Music House, at (irceuville, has sold the Catholic congregation at this place a handsome organ for their new house of worship. Appointments of the Y. M. C. A. for next Sunday : To conduct thc afternoon meeting, L, P. Smith ; Poor House committee, Kev. II. B. Fant, A. B. Towers. Last Saturday was the best business day our merchants have had since the spring trade opened. Tho stores presente " a lively appearance during the entire day. Mr. A. B. Towers returned from the North last week, and thc popular establishment of which ho is tho senior is now full of beau tiful spring goods of every description. It. B. A. Robinson, Esq., performed mar riage ceremonies for two couples on thc 17tli instant-Mr. John A. Williams and Miss Belia Tribble and Mr. William R. Cooley and Miss Lou C. Wilson. The members of Hock Mills Grange are urged, at the request of the Master, to at tend the regular meeting of the Grange on the first Saturday in May, as important bus iness will come up for* transaction. The meeting convenes at '1 p. m. We publish to-day an article from H. fi. Scuddoy, Esq., in reply to the article of Mr. W. W. Brown published last week on Pro hibition, and hove two others on the same side of the subject that will appear next week. Ono is from Columbus Wardluw, Esq., and the other from a gentleman in the country who does not sign his full name. A gentleman of undoubted veracity liv ing in Rock Milla township, in this county, sends us the following and vouches for its authenticity : "There is living In Rock Mills township an old colored woman who attended the funeral and burial of General George Washington in 1700. She is a na tive of Virginia, and was at that time about fifteen years old." Mr. C. C. Langston, a compositor in this office, met with quite a painful accident on Monday morning, winch will disable bim.for business for several weeks. While "Hitting a cord on a window shade a stcp " Ider on which bo was standing tilted to <fne side, and in endeavoring to avert a fall c??.f?,ht against the window, a pane of which broke, the glass cutting a dangerous wound jan his right wrist. Mr. J. C. C. Turner, of Greenville, an en terprising furniture dealer, makes a bid in this issue for thc patronage of tho citizens of thia county. Mr. Turner carries a fine stock of goods, and those who buy from bini can rely on fair dealing. If the pooplo of Andeison have to go elsewhere for their furniture, we would rather Mr. Turner would get it than any one we know of. A South Carolina plantation is to receive Chinese laborers from San Francisco by way of experiment. They will bc sent there under thc watchful supervision of an overseer, who is -to see to it that none of them tako advantage of having their ex penses paid tc the Atlantic States to slip away and settle down among their country men in ono of the larger cities. If they prove desirable laborers others will proba bly follow. The wool factory and saw mill of Mr. E. P. Earle, at Andersonville, were de stroyed by lire Tuesday morning about G o'clock. The lire was liot discovered until thc buildings were nearly consumed, andas there had been no fire about the factory or mill, which arc very near together, and as fresh tracks were seen about the place, there can be no doubt the burning was the work of un incendiary. Thc loss is estimated at about $800. No insurance. "Mr. James M. Payne, of Anderson, S. C., dropped in to see ns Thursday. He and his family were on a visit to relatives. Jim was one of our old schoolmates 'just twenty years ago.' Ab ! those happy, light-hearted days when we 'skinned tlie cat,' played 'leap frog' and 'blacksmith' and 'town ball' and went in a washing-gone forever. No nobler heart beats in man's bosom than in Jim Payne's. May he live long and pros per."-Hartwell Sun. Work bas been commenced on thc build ings of tho Pelzer Manufacturing Company near Williamstor. The first work is on tho hotel, which ia to be two stories high, with eight rooms in sizo sixteen by eighteen feet-four on the first floor and four on thc second-and a hall ten feet wide, and also an ell. Thc next building will be a resi dence for the secretary. For tho present Mr. Smythe, the president, and Mr. Coffin, tho secretary, reside at Williamston, but nre on thc factory grounds daily. The follow ing order declaring postal -ards unmailablo with anythingbnt the direction on the ad."ress side was issuod at the Post ofllcc Department last week : "On and after Juno 1, 1881, no printing or writing wdll be permitted upon the address side of the pos tal cards except that imprinted there nt the manufactory, and such as may be necessary for thc proper direction of thc same. All postal cards bearing ary other writing or printing upon the. address side are declared unmailablc, and must be returned to the sendor by tho postmaster at the office where they may bo mailed." We print elsewhere a letter to the Charles ton News and Courier written from William ston, proposing tho formation of a now county of portions of Anderson and Green ville. Thc proposition is so ridiculous that wo cannot help thinking tho article was written by some ono extremely anxious to see something from Ids pen in print or who is itching for the excitements of a local campaign that would aa surely as thc sun shines end in the defeat of the new county idea. Wo shall await further de relopments, which will be given to our readers as they appear. Hon. Hugh S. Thompson, State Superin tendent of Education, paid our town a brief visit on last Tuesday. While hero ho visi ted tho public schools of tho town, and his visit being unknown until his nrrival at tho school houses, he witnessed their usual daily fiovernraent and exercises. Mr. Thompson las managed thc educational interests of the State to the satisfaction of thc people, and to his prudent and cautions recommenda tions to tho Legislature, and wise ri?uitmS i ration of tho means at his command Ls due the increased efficiency of the public schools over that of his predecessors. Tho following dispatch to thc Atlanta Cbrwiiru??on. from Hartwell, Ga., dated 22d instant, tells tho sad and tragic end of the murderer of Thomas V. Skelton : "Henry HUI, alias Turner, tho murdorcr of Thomas Skelton, was hanged to-day in the presence of eight thousand spectators. Feoplo from Hart, Elbert, Franklin, Hebersham and South Carolina were present. Hon. J. O. McCnrry commanded two hundred armed guards. Tho drop fell at 1 o'clock j?, m., and tho body was cut down at 1.27 o'clock. Ho died by strangulation. Tho neck was not broken. The bar-rooms were all closed, and no confusion and but little excitement. Hill admitted on tho gallows the killing of Skelton and tho justice of his punishment. Ho attributed his crime to cari' and whis key." Abram Martin waa hanged in Abbeville on Friday lost for the murder of his wife on tho 16th e.i Joly, 18S0. Ho was perfect ly composed and ascended the scaffold with a firm step. He spoke to the few who were present, saying he was at peace with God and ready to go ; that ho expected to meet his wifo in heaven, and that be had noth ing against her and did not kill ber because of another woman. Ho assigned no motive for tho deed. Ho asked to bo informed when they were ready, and when tho black cap was drawn over his head he thanked the Sheriff for his kindness. A colored pru cher who was present exhorted him to be hti'udfast ii? keeping bi? mind on Christ, to which lie replied. "I will." The trap fell at 1.17, and at 1.37 he was pronounced dead by Doctor? Parker and Calhoun, and was cut down nt 1.38 and the body delivered to his friends, none of his family being presen?. Martin was 50 years old. and was weak minded. Mr. John lt. Kay. an enterprising young merchant of Monea Path, met willi the mis fortune on Sunday night last of having his store and stock of gooda destroyed by Ure. Mr. Kay and one of his clcrks'werc sleep ing in a room over the store, and about ll o'clock were aroused by the fire, which bad gained such headway at the time of discov ery that :t was impossible to either control the Humes or save any portion of the goods from destruction. The stock of goo<ls was worth live or six thousand dollars, and was insured for three thousand, and thc build ing was worth eighteen hundred or two thousand dollars, und was insured for eleven hundred. Mr. Kay had just recently en tered the mercantile business and in bis loss has the sympathy of many friends. The tire is supposed to huve originated from the ignition of matches by rats. Rev. T. 1*. Dell, pastor of thc Baptist church at this place, announced to his con gregation at the rlosc of the morning ?er yicc last Sunday, that after long and pray erful consideration of the matter he hud arrived at the conclusion that it was his iluty to the cause of ?'brist to go as a mis sionary to China, and acting under this conviction he had tendered his service? to the Foreign Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention, and had been the week before appointed by said Board a missionary to his chosen field, for which he will depart about the middle of October next. Thc announcement was a great surprise to the major part of the congregation, as only a few of Iiis most intimate and confidential friends had been informed of his purposes. During Mr. Bell's pastorate here since tho 1st July last lie has endeared himself to his congregation and impressed tho public ut large as a gentleman of culture, line abili ties and noble Christiun character, and the severiug of his connection with his church will be lamentes] not only by his immediate congregation but by the citizens of the town and surrounding country as well. Mr. Bell also stated that Kev. John Stout, of Society Hill, had also been appointed as a mission ary to China by the sumo Board, and will go at thc same time bc docs to that country.

New County Out of Portions of Anderson anti Greenville Counties. Correspondence of lite New? and Cburtcr. WILI.IAMBTON, April 15. Thc citizens in and around Wilflamston, S. C., ure discussing the necessity of forming a new' county from the townships of Wil liamson, Belton, a part if not thc whole of Honca.Path Township in Anderson County, and that part of Greenville County south of and including Piedmont village as far east as Reedy River, or possibly to the Laurens line, with Williamston as the county scat. The Saluda River, with its numerous shoals and facilities for manufacturing, takes its course nearly through the contre. Thc Columbia and Greenville Railroad and the Atlantic and French Broad Valley Railroad pass through thc Town of Williainston*; and tho numerous bridges across the Saluda River now oller greater facilities for reach ing Williamson to those parties residing in the southern part of Greenville County than thc approach to their county scat. Anderson County with its -109,000 and Greenville County with its 414,000 square acres can easily sparc the above mentioned area for the new county. Greenville County, from north to south, extends about fifty miles, yet its_ average width f? not over twenty miles, The trade of tho lower part of tho county is to a great extent carried on with Williamston, and shortly petitions will bo circulated among tho30 residing in the above sections in or der that they signify their approval of tho proposal, and the matter bo brought before the next meeting of tho Legislatura in the proper form.

Whilst the country is enthused on rail roads, Jet ns say a word for a road from Belton via Cumming'* Crossing via Centre of Gravity, to intersect tin?

He began to improvo after the first dose, and before lie had taken two bottles was en tirely cured, where I feared no euro was possible, and I most cheerfully recommend it to ' all who have any affections of the Lungs. He was coughing and spitting all thc limo, so incessantly that it prevented his sleeping at night, and what little sleep be got did not refresh him in the least. Had hut little appetite, and since he began tho use of Brewer's Lung Restorer has slept well and his appetite is very much better. I have never seen anything act so promptly and effect a cure in so short time.
