The heads are short bnt well devel? oped. The Pomona Grange of this county will meet at this place on the first Saturday in .Inly next, and it is desirable that every Grange in the county be represented. The Mb degree will be conferred on all appli? cants. Dr. Lucius Montgomery, of Micanopy, Florida, spent a day or two during the past week with relatives in this county. He paid us a call on Monday, and-took the train that afternoon on bis homeward journey. The officers or~the town were instructed ?n Tuesday afternoon by the Conncil to make an inspection of the town on Wednes? day afternoon, and to report such persons as bad not complied with the instructions "to clean up their premises" published last week. There was a considerable rain and wind storm in the Earle's Bridge neighborhood on Saturday afternoon, bnt the only dam? age we have heard of from it was the blow? ing down of two negro cabins on the Gra? ham place, near Farmer's Store, and a large number* of forest trees. ;JTbe review of Jeff. Davis' book on the rise and fall of the Con federate governm ent.. frinted on our first page, though long, win e found exceedingly instructive and inter? esting. The exmcts made from his boob treat of the most important events in the Liatory of the Confederacy. The programme for the fifth annual meet? ing of the Salnda Baptist Snndav School Institute, which convenes in Pendleton on the 14th July, has been issued. The meet big will continue through the Sunday fol? lowing, and will doubtless be largely atten? ded and deeply Interesting. Next week is Commencement Week at Doe West, and we dare say the little town will once, more be thoroughly alive. Due W est is noted for three things: the cul tore or its citizenh, its fine colleges, and the courting propensities of the students dur? ing Commencement season. "M " writes from Honea Path that a tel? egraph office has been opened at that place, at:d that Mr. Baum, who has been stationed heretofore at Belton, has. been placed in charge of both depot and telegraph office. Also, that last year's shippage of cotton from that point was about 3,500 bales. The "gentleman from England" who dis? covered the diamond mine near Seneca City some time since, suspended operations two or three weeks ago and has since been in New York, or some other town. Some of the diamond enthusiasts np there are get? ting a little anxious for bim to return. Senator Crayton receive? invitations by nearly every mall to visit different section''* orvGeorgia and make speeches or read essavs on the stock law. As he cannot accept all of these invitations, he has prepared a cir? cular letter which he is sending out to the various localities desiring his services. The following persons have brought or sent us cotton blooms that appeared in their fluids on the dava mentioned: M. W. Jones JRh. Col. EHasMoGee 16th. J. L. King 17th. Robert Goode 18th. J. F. Haekott 19tb. J. A. Jollv. Peter McPhail. J. W. Dalrvmple. Ms*. E. M. Vandiver 20th. Of the samples of cotton sent, Mr. McPhail's was the best. ''J. P. D." writes from Calhonn that there is a flourishing Sunday School at Shndy Grove chnrch under the supervision of Mr M. B. Gain es, there being over a hundred members enrolled; that the Salnda Division, Sons of Temperance, is initiating new mem? bers every meeting, and that Mr. W. F. Sutherland is erecting a magnificent dwell -fag on bis plantation, which will soon be completed. Ont of the last cargo of immigrants. Col. Bntler has sent a family of four to Rev. J. R Earle. and two Emilies of seven to Messrs. Reed <fc Rossel], in this county. The work of immigration under its present efricient management is going on very sat? isfactorily indeed, and before the year is or?t the population of the State will be ang minted by the introduction of several thousand Germans. ?From the statistical report of the Presby? tery of Sonlh Carolina, it appears that the Anderson Church is the strongest of any in the body. It has the largest member ship. 165; received during the past year the next largest rin ruber of accessions, 14 ; has the second largest Sunday School, 05; and pays the largest pastor's salary, $1.250. The I Presbytery embraces theronnties of Oconee. Pirkens, Anderson, Newherry, Abbeville and Edgefield, and will hold its next meet in*, at this place. Mr. W. B. Miller, of Abbeville county, drr pped in on us on Saturday and relieved the monotony of office work by a pleasant conversation about a recent extensive trip through the Pacific and Northwestern States. He had been away for six or seven months, and spent the greater part of the time at San Diego. California. Taking everything into consideration, he says that upper Carolina is more desirable as a place of residence than any of the points visited. A gentleman of our town who went to Columbia last week says that he saw only ona field of cotton after leaving Anderson county that was as good as what he saw in Anderson, and that was on the farm of Mr. Hoffman, near Columbia, who is said to be on-2 of the best, if not the very best farmer of the State. The crops below Greenwood art1 suffering for rain, and in many sections the outlook in rather discouraging. Upon the whole Anderson county has the best farmers and farming lands in the State. The Abbeville Press and Banner, in speak? ing of the propositions to form new conn tie's in this State with Williamston in this . county and Bock Hill in York county as the county seats, makes the following sen "ib. ? remarks, which we commend to the careful consideration of our friends aboqt Williamston who take to the new county idea: "This evil we hope will not he en? couraged. We have enough officers already to live on the taxes of the people. The farmers of the country may be very friendly to the respective little towns, but we hardly think it to their interest to build a Court House at every cross roads." At a meeting of the citizens of the town in the Court House on Saturday afternoon the following delegates were elected to rep? resent the interests of the town in the special meeting of the stockholders oi the Savannah Vauey Railroad Company at Lowndesville on the 30th inst.: Gen. W. W. Humphreys, Maj. B. F. Whitner, Dr. P. A. Wilhite, Maj. E. B. Murray and Capt. A. T. Broyles. Alternates?Capt. P. K. McCnlly, Dr. R. F. Divver, J. C. C Featheraton, John E. Breazeale and G. F. Tolly. The Council has authorized the payment of twenty-five cents for every dog delivered to the Chief of Police without a collar on. This is done in order to rid the town of *he dogs on which no tax is paid, but we would respectfully suggest the propriety of requir? ing the said officer to keep a description of every dog delivered to him and the name of the person making the delivery, so as to prevent persons from divesting dogs of their collars simply to make the reward offered. Without some such record, there is a door open to mischief and fraud. A Normal School for colored teachers will be held at Columbia, beginning July 5 and ending July 29, the object of which is to train teachers for their work. The course of instruction will include all the branches taught in the public schools of this State, together with music and drawing. The Institute will be under the charge of H. P. Montgomery, of Washington, who will be aided by skilful assistants. Tuition will be free, and reduced rates of fare will be given on all the railroads. The schools in this county Hnder the charge of teachers who desire to attend the Institute will be closed during the month of July without any loss of public money. The Lodge of Knights of Honor at this place now has seventy-seven 3d degree members and several others in process of advancement. The following are the offi? cers elected to serve the ensuing term of six months: G. F. Tolly, Dictator-; P. K. Mc Cully, Vice Dictator; D. 8. Taylor, Asst. Dictator; Rev. J. E. Carlisle, Chaplain; J. Baylis Lewis, Reporter; J. E. Breazeale, Financial Reporter; J. W. Daniels, Treas.; J. Reese Fant, Guide; J. W. Keys, Guardi? an? R. L. Kev3, Sentinel; Dr. W. H. Nnr din, Past Dictator; J. D. Maxwell, D. G. D. The installation will take place the first Wednesday night in July. The HartweU Sun praises a citizen ofthat county for inaugurating a new industry in HartweU, to wit: that of selling sweet ant butter milk to the town people, many of whom cannot keep a cow because of the expense and trouble. Our contemporary suggests that there are some people who are afflicted with a "foolish pride," and are ashamed to sell anything made on a farm, and says: "When you see a man who is ashamed to sell fruit, watermelons, or any? thing else, if you were to trace his ancestry hack ten to one yon will find his mother was a washerwoman and his daddy a dead beat." The Grand Jury has again recommended j that the County Commissioners provide the I inmates of the county Poor House with more comfortable houses. This is the fifth or sixth time that this recommendatr^oji-as been made by onr Grand Jnries during" ~cne past three or four years, and as yet little or nothiug has been done toward carrying out the recommendations made. The present Board is no mure at fault in this matter than the other Boards that have preceded them, but why should this matter be longer postponed? If it is for the want of means, it would be better to borrow the money with which to make the needed improve? ments than to allow the unfortunate in? mates of this institution to suffer for the want of comfortable houses. Be it said to the credit of the county they are well cared for in every other respect, and we sincerely trust before the winter season arrives their dwellings will be made amply comfortable. A county tbat is as prosper? ous as ours should not be satisfied with giving those who are entirely dependent upon its charity for sustenance anything less than a respectable support. A well conducted and liberally supported Poor House is a credit to any community ; but one tbat is stingily and meanly supported is a disgrace._ The Circuit Court. The June term of the Court of General Sessions for Anderson County convened on last Monday morning, his Honor Judge J. H. Hudson, of the Third Circuit, pre? siding. Solicitor Orr not having arrived, by his request the Judge appointed Mr. H. G. Scudday to act as Solicitor pro tern. His Honor then charged the Grand Jury as follows: Gentlemen of the Grand Jury: I presume you have already been fully instructed as to vour general duties by my brother who preceded me upon the Bench, and it is not necessary that! should go over the ground again. I shall not repeat the charge upon your general duties in full, but' from the importance: of the matter I will again call vuur attention to portions of yonr duties. It is a great mistake to suppose that you have nothing to do except to come here and find bills and go home. As the Grand In? quest of the County, you have other im? portant duties to perform, and a failure on your part will not be excusable. During your term you should go over all of the municipal affairs of the County and ascertain if they are proj?erly managed. You should see after the condition of your public roads, bridges and public buildings, and look into the state Of crime in your midst. The law devolves these duties on you is the select and chosen body to look after the welfare of 'the County. If this work is well done by each Grand Jury, the affairs of your County will be kept in a healthy and satisfactory condition. This work will be a good education to you, both by informing you as to the condition of your County and as to the law of the land. However simple and necessary a knowledge of the law niay be, people do not study it, out from serving here you may learn a '?"t deal by listening and performing your duties. i ucre are some recent Acts of the Legis ?ature to which I desire to call your especial ittention. The first of these is the Act to punish adultery, which, until the last ses? sion of the Legislature, was not defined. There is now no room for doubt as to the offense. This is a good law, and should be enforced in defense of the sacred institution of matriuiony, upon which the good of so -iety depends. It is also designed for the protection and promotion of good morals, .ind it devolve) on you to enforce it by bringing to the attention of the Court any violation of the law. In furtherance of the peace and welfare of the community, the Legislature also at its last session passed the Act to regulato n e sale of spirituous liquors. This subject uiiderweut thorough investigation, and the Act has a wise purpose in view. A large proportion of crimes are traceable to dram shops, which are not merely an evil to the victim,- but aiso to the community, which ?iutlers from the various crimes traceable to this evil. This act restricts the sale. Some men may think it a mistake for the Legis? lature to attempt to regulate the sale of iiquors, but there can be no doubt tbat it would be better to have the sale of liquors entire!} abolished. We must take the Act aiid enforce it. If it proves to be a mistake the Legislature will repeal it. The next Act to which I desire to call your attention, is the Act to punish the carrying of concealed weapons. As will tie noticed the offtnse here is carrying the weapon concealed about the person. I held at Abbeville that the Act is not appli? cable to women. They are the non-arms hearing population, and the law does not appear to have reference to them. This Act is another step in the right direction. No two things have been more productive of crime than whiskey and concealed wea? pons. When crime increases the expenses of the Court are augmented, and the civil tiusiuess is crowded out and blocked by the heavy dockets of criminal cases. In pass? ing this Act it was the intention of the Legislature to remove one of the sources of crime. A pmctice of carrying a concealed weapon, getting into a difficulty and killing some person, and then putting up a plea of tell defense and securing an acquittal, is becoming so common that the Legislature lelt called upon to put a stop to it. These are laws that come under your cog? nizance. Private citizens do not bring these cases to Court, as a general rule, and .t devolves on you to cniorce these laws. You are a public body, and should see to their enforcement, A number of bills were then submitted to the Grand Jury, and at 11 a. m. Col. Orr arrived and took charge of tbcSulicitor's duties. His commission was spread upon the minutes of the Court. The following cases were tried on Mon? day : i he State vs. Charles Gambrell. Assault and battery with intent to kill. The Solic itor represented the State, and Messrs. Moore & Wardlaw the defendant. Verdict, guilty. The State vs. Rolf Coaxutn. Forgery. State represented by the Solicitor and pris? oner by Moore & wardlaw. Guilty. The State vs. Alex. Perry for assault and battery with intent to kill. The Solicitor for the State, and Mr. J. ?. Allen for the defendant. Verdict, not guilty. On Tuesday the following cases were tried : The State vs. Alexander Burton, James Woodson and Edward Woodson for steal? ing cotton from the field. The Solicitor for the State, and Mr. T. Q Donaldson, of | Greenville, for the defendants. At the con? clusion of the State's testimony, the Judge instructed the jury to find a verdict of not guilty. The State vs. Anderson Durham and Elizabeth Durham. Malicious trespass. State represented by the Solicitor ana the accused by T. H. Cooke. Esq. Not guilty. The State vs. Abe Beeks. Arson. Solic? itor for the State and Messrs. H. G. Scud day and E. B. Murray for the prisoner. Found guilty and recommended to the mercy of the Court. As we go to press the case of the State vs. Jesse T. Ashley for obstructing neighbor? hood road is being tried. The Solicitor is representing the Stf.te, and Brown & Trib ble, Murray & Murray, Wru. S. Brown and J. B. Cothran the accrsed. The case will likely occupy the greater part of the day (Wednesday^_ Six Hot Days. The weather since last Thursday has been extremely oppressive both day and night. The following is a thermoraetrical record kept at the drug store of Messrs. Orr & Sloan, probably the coolest place on the public square: 9 a.m. 12m. 3 p.m. 6 p.m. Thursdav. 80 89 91 92 Friday. 88 92 94 93 Saturday. 8S 91 94 93 Monday. 85 90 93 92 Tuesday. 86 92 06 93 There was no record kept on Sunday, but it was unquestionably as warm as Saturday. Tuesday night there was a slight modera? tion, and on Wednesday at 9 a. m. the ther? mometer registered 83 and at 12 m. 86. The Homes of Anderson County. In Anderson county there is one dwelling bouse returned for taxation to every twenty nine inhabitants, which is explained by a correspondent of the News and Courier, who got his information from Mr. T. J. Webb, our County Auditor, as follows: "In the first place Mr. Webb informed your correspondent that the mw did not re 3uire any building not worth one hundred ollars to be returned, and this information furnished a little light to start on. A great many of our farmers have settled families of negroes on their places, building for them small cabins of unhewn logs with what is known as 'stick aud mud chim? neys.' These are not considered worth the hundred dollars, and yet every such house shelters at least four or five'population.' And there are a great many such habita? tions in Anderson, for, being a prosperous county, a great many laborers nave come from other counties to settle here. Again, if you will notice, the average valuation of land per acre in this county is very high. (I think it is the second county in the State in this respect.) Our people buy and sell land at so much per acre, and if there are good buildings on a plantation they merely make the price per acre more aud are never mentioned. This beiug the case some of our people may think their buildings are included in the valuation of their land. And then there are a great many who have houses that are worth a good deal more than one hundred dollars, who claim that they are not worth that amount and do not return them. This is wrong, and I suppose that Anderson county has its share of this cluss of wrong-doers. Be it understood that not one word in this letter is iutended to defend those persons, whether in this coun? ty or elsewhere, who do not regard their oath enough to make a correct return of all their property." _^ _ Temperance Movement Among the Col? ored People. The quarterly meeting of the Methodist Episcopal Church, (colored), Rev. R. A. Fletcher, pastor, was held last Sunday and Monday. The Rev. L. M. Dunton, Presid? ing Elder, preeohed Sunday morning and administered the Sacrament in the after? noon. At night Mrs. Dunton, President of the Woman's National Christian Temperance Union and special Missionary for this State, addressed the colored people on the subject of Temperance, the effect of alcohol on the body being illustrated by Dr. 8ewaH's charts. At 4 p. m. Monday a W. N. C. T. U. of seventy-four members was formed, and the following officers elected: President?Hester Young. Vice President?Mary J. Williams. Secretar}'?Mattie Saxton. Asst. Secretary?Lucy Curamingsi. Treasurer?Ruth Guyton. Cor. Secretary?Julia Caldwell. At night there was a large gathering of Sunday School children and workers ad? dressed by the Presiding Elder and wife. The meeting was a great success through? out. Mr. Dunton and wife went from this place to Pendleton Tuesday, where they also expect to organize a Temperance Union. PRESENTMENT OP GRAND JURY. Jane Term, 1881. State of Sopth Carolina, County op Anderson: To Bis Honor J. H. Hudson, Presiding Judge : The Grand Jury of Anderson county at this the June Term of Court for the year 18S1, beg leave to submit the folio w Presentment :? We are glad to report the people of the county in a prosperous condition, but are sorry to note the increase of crime of a petty nature. We think Trial Justices should exercise a great deal of discretion in sending up to the Court of Sessions cases of such a nature, as they consume the time of the Court at the expense of the co int;. Wo havo examined the public offices t f tho county, and find them well and properly ke^)t. By a committee of our body we have visited the Poor House, and find the in? mates well cared for, but would recom? mend that the County Commissioners have some new and comfortable build i ucs erected, as some of the houses are in a decaying condition. We find that Polly Ann Leach, an in? mate of the Poor House, is a lunatic and. gives a great deal of trouble to the Stew? ard. We recommend that the proper steps be taken to send her to the A>ylum Tho crop at the Poor House we find in a good condition, and has been well worked and managed, aud with good seasons we expect a fine yield. The condition of the road? and bridges in the county are in pretty good condi t:on, except the abutments of Bailey's Bridge in Broadaway towuship, aud the floor of the bridge over Beaverdam creek, near Brown's uiusterground in Fork township, and would respectfully cull the attention of the County Commis? sioners to the same. We would suggest that tho County Commissioners borrow money, if in their power, to reimburse the Sheriff hia expenses in transferring lunatics to tho Asylum and prisoners to the Penitentia? ry. ? ? *? * ** In conclusion, we would return our thanks to tho Presiding Judge, tho Solicitor and the other officers of the Court for their courtesy, and for tho as? sistance given us in the discharge of our duties during the Term.
