MURRAY, Couuty Chairman. in another column will bo found the nuuouticoment of a change iu the pro prietors of the Intellkiencek, occa sioned by the withdrawal of Mr. W. W. Key?, who is to enter another field of journalism, which wo trust will prove even more advantageous than the one just left by him has been. In giving up Mr. Keys we feel that not only our office and our subscribers have lost an efficient and acceptable journalist, but the entire community will loso a valuable, influen tial and popular citizen and friend, whose inilueuco has always been exerted in faithful nnd judicious manner for the promotion of tho best interests of Anderson and her citizens. Wherever ho may cast his lot tho people of Ander eon will follow him with earnest wishes that greatest success may crown his every undertaking. There are few men who would bo more generally missed in Anderson than W. W. Keys. In assuming control of the lNTEI.LT? OENCEB the new proprietors do not deem it necessary that they do more than to announce that tboy shall conduct the paper in the futuro as they have in the past, so as to represent the best interests, as far as they arc able, of the County of Anderson and State of South Carolina. V/c shall try to bo just to all men, aud at the same time give utterance to our convictions upon public questions which may from time to time arise. We shall endeavor to make the INTELLIGENCER in future as good or better than it has been in the past. Tho various ways of drawing off voters from tho party in power always tends to strengthen the parly in the opposition. Knowing this, shrewd politicians who are in such an opposition very often get up dissension in the ranks of the ruling party in order to make an opening for tho return of their party to power. This, in our opinion, is the source of Green backiam in South Carolina. The Re publicans know full well that so long as the Democrats remain united, there is no chance for them to again obtain power in South Carolina; the few years of good stealing which they left jn tin Stato will not be given to them, and hence tbey bave in one way and another put it into the heads of sore-heads, malcontents and of men in sympathy with Republicanism to start jip a new party to disrupt the Democracy. The money to run the new party in South Carolina is said to bo furnished by tho National Greenback party, which bas always been in alliance with Republicanism. This is tho tactics by which the Republicans won Indiana from tbe D?mocrate. The Greenbackera from the South in Congress always vote with the Republicans, and thus show tholr real sympathies and purpoies. The liftt'i?bi'ckt't.s never injure the Hoptihlj < ans ?ti tin South. They never y t I.e. publican voies except in Democratic Slater. The tacit agreement ihat where tin.- ftepublicaiis iati succeed the Groeiibackers ?hall not interfere, but ! lure they cannot eleet their men they! ' will help tin (irei nbackcrs t<> <li leal the Democrat*. Therefore, the Greenback! party i- an ally Of tin- I'cpiiblican party, ami we have more respcoi for the head than we have fur the tail <?! this e tinbi- : nation.

The English have ' eut their ship* of war to Port Said, and al though they have not yet lam'ed any forces, they have command of Ihe Suez Canal. The ultimate object!* of England in entering upon thin war arc as yet un tli.sclo.4ed, although the avowed purpose is the honor of the counl-y and the pro tection of English rights in Egypt. None of the powers of Europe have unitcl with England in lie. war, and the moat, it not all, of them seem to look with apprehension upon the designs ol England in Egypt. The Khedive is evi dently in sympathy with England, but is powerless to render them much as-i st ance, us the Egyptians ami a number ol the surrounding tribes have united with Arabi in opposition to the Khedive, and M. DcLcsscps is in (sympathy with him. Arabi claims lo bo it descendant :if the Prophet, ami assumed the green turban and robes id" a descendant of the Prophet, The policy of the leading powers of Eu rope is nonintervention, ho long as Eng land seeks by the wur only to secure the 'free and nafe navigation of thr Suez Canal, in which all are interested, but the moment she goes beyond this, and attempts the establishment of a protecto rate over Egypt, or the acquisition ol political power, it is more than likely that serious complications will arise which may disturb the peace of Europe. The State Agricultural Society ami the State dr?nge will hold their Summer meetings in this city, commencing on Tuesday, the 10th instant. These Sum mer meetings, in which the agricultural interests of the Stale are considered, arc of tli?> first importance to farmers, and we would urge all who possibly can to attend. great deal of practical infor mation on the various modes of farming, with their success, is presented at these meetings. Several essays on various subjects connected with agriculture, pre pared by those who have made the sub ject their study, will bo reati. The in formation gained ut these meetings by the farmers of tho country will amply repay them for the loss of two or three days from their farm work. These meet ings are tho meetings of the farmere of tho State consult together not only ns to the best methods of farming, hut also as to those measures of legislation which arc best calculated to promote the farm ing interests of the State. Leithe far mers of Anderson County show by their presence their interest in those Societies, for the objecta of their formation aro tho protection of their rights and the promo tion of their interests. If they arc not encouraged and (sustained by those for whoso benefits they are formed, they must fail. Let all seek to make the meeting at Anderson a grand success. The County Convention which assem bled on lust Friday was the largest dem ocratic Convention that ever assembled in Anderson. All hut threo delegates out of 171 were present, and throughout its wholo proceedings the utmost har mony prevailed. Thero was great inter est manifested in the Convention upon many questiona, but the body did its work well, and, as far as wo could judgo, satisfactorily. It demonstrated that the Anderson Democracy is to day as vigor ous and Htrong aa ever. There is no disaffection, and another triumphant vic tory awaits our State, County and Con gressional tickets in November. The nomination of Col. Thomas liar doman, of Georgia, as Congressinnn-nt Large of that State, will give to the Agricultural class another able and prac tical member of the National Legislature. He has been President of the Stato Ag ricultural Society of Geoigia for several years, and is an experienced and success ful planter. In addition to this, he is a very popular man personally, and his name upon tho Democratic State ticket will give it very groat strength and en thusiasm in tho agricultural circles of Georgia. The Democratic Stato Convention, which assembled in Columbia ou Tues day, is the largest representativo gather ing of the Democracy ever belt! in South Carolina. Wo hope their counsels may be harmonious und their conclusions wise. When foe Convention completes its work, it is the duty, and should be the pleasure, of every Democrat in South Carolina to work assiduously for the tri umphant election of the ticket it shall place before tho State. Tho Greenback movement grows beau tifully less and unimportant as the cam paign draws -near. The few clubs that bave been organized in the State aro composed of men of very little influence, many of whom are disappointed office seeker*, and so far they have commanded neithf.r tho co-operation nor respect of any. u uterini number of men in any part of tbo State. ?It is estimated thai the reduction of the public debt for tbo month of Jnly is about ?4,000,000.
