There are now one hundred and thirty - _ two students in attendance upon the An? derson Military School. Mr. S. M. Cray ton has presented us with a sample of delicious Jersey butter, for which we return thanks. The gosaipcrs say> that a popular young j merchant of the city will soon take unto himself a partner for life. The annual report of the School Com? missioner for Anderson County appears on the fourth page of this paper. Read it. The new advertisement of Messrs. Sulli? van & Bro. should have the careful perusal of all the readers of the.IsTELLiokncee. Two students of the Military School were wrestling last Friday, when one of them' was so unfortunate as to get his arm broken. Colds are prevalent in the city, and in fact all over the County, superinduced by the extremes through which we have been passing. Some villain a few nights since cut down a number of young shade trees that Mr. C. S. Beaty had set out along South Main street, near the one-mile post. The lien business is getting pretty active already. Many farmers who save liens last year are too lean to get one now, and j will have to go it alone or break. An old colored couple, who hare been living together for the past forty yean, ? were married on last Monday night in the African Methodist Church of this city. Married, at the residence of the bride's mother, on Sunday, 20th inst., by Rev. C. V. Barnes, Mr. Henry 8. Broom and Miss Bailie E. Eeaton, all of Anderson County. Col. Jas. A. Hoy t, of the Baptist Courier, Greenville, S. C, spent a few days in the city during the past week. His many friends here are always glad to shake his hand. Encourage newspaper reading among your children, and yon will soon discover what a fondness they will have for their | . County paper, and how rapidly they will improve. From what we can gather from the State j press, the small grain crop, especially the oats, seem to have been seriously injured in nearly every section of the State by the re? cent cold weather. Married, in the Presbyterian Church in this city, on Thursday evening, 17th inst., by Rev. D. E. Friereon, D. D., Mr. M. Lu? ther Carlisle and Miss Mattie R. McCon nell, all of Anderson. Senators Hampton and Butler and Con? gressman Aiken reside at the Metropolitan Hotel, Washington. Any of our readers desiring to write to either of these gentle men may make a note of this. .We direct attention to the advertisement of Prof. Bergex, who has opened a dancing school in the Masonic Hall in this city. He comes well recommended as an accom? plished teacher of the terpsichorean art. It- seems now quite probable that Con? gress will paw the Bill to erect a United States Court House in Greenville. It will be a fitting recognition of the enterprise, growth and importance of oar sister city. Capt. P. K. Norris and wife, of this County, left Anderson Tuesday evening for Alabama, where they will spend two or three-months -visiting relatives. We wish them a pleasant trip and a safe return home. Mr. German F. Burton, of Hall town? ship, died at his residence on 11th inst. of dropsy. He was fifty-seven years old, and had been a member of Union Baptist Church since its formation. He was buried at Union on Saturday, 12th inst. "Good morning, Mr. B-; how are you?" "Nod ad all well, tbag you. I've a fearful code in my head.'' "It's a strange thing about colds, isn't it ?" "How do you bead?" "Why they always settle in the weakest place."" Nothing more was said, and they went on their way. Some of tbe young couples who have been recently married have hit upon a novel way of deciding as to which mast get up these cold mornings and make the fire. They get a "pull bone," and whichever one \jso unlucky as to get the longest part of bone has to get up and make the fire. >. B. W. Harbin died at the residence ' husband in Rock Mills township on morning, 18th inst., after a brief ill' ged about forty years.

Newell's unoccu? pied residence, in Hopewell Township, for the benefit of the Hopew^ll school bouse, was postponed, on account of the inclem? ent weather, until to-morrow (Friday) night. Remember the time and place, and attend. On account of the inclement weather list Friday right, the meeting called for that evening for the purpose of organizing a Literary Club was postponed until to? morrow (Friday) afternoon at 4 o'clock. All persons who desire to join or feel an in? terest in the organization are requested to attend. The meeting will be held in the Court House. Mr. Lemuel Swayngame, a highly re? spected citizen of Hopewell township, died on the 17th inst., in the seventy-ninth year of his age. On the day following his death hin funeral services were conducted by Rev. G. M. Rogers at Beaverdam Church, after which his remains interred in the adjacent graveyard. He was a good citizen, and a zealous member of the Methodist Church for more than forty years. A little son of Mr. D. D. Gentry, in Broadawry township, while playing in the yard one day last week fell and broke his ana near the elbow. Dr. J. O. Wilhite was summoned to re-set the broken limb, bu; by the time he arrived at the house the arm was so badly swollen that it was im potisible to re-set it. The little fellow is getting along very well, but it is feared that be will have a stiff arm the balance of his life. In speaking of the recent freeze in Clar? endon County, the Enterprise says: "One of our citizens Bays it was so cold last Sun? day that after the hominy had been boiled a large lump of ice was found about the centre. Another says that the* hot coffee fro.ie as it left the pot, and when the enp w?i filled there was a solid mass of ice from the cup to the pot, and that in lifting the pot, the ice -was so strong as to lift the cup with it." While we were standing on a street cor i nei the other day wondering where w? coi.ld pick up a bit of news, we overheard two old gentlemen discussing the weather. After making various predictions as to what I sort of weather we would have during the I balance of the year, one of them remarked: "I have always noticed that when a cow scrutcb.es her right ear with her hind foot, we are sure to hare a rain." Take notice hereafter and yon can tell whenever it is going to rain. Mr. E. A. Mosely, a most estimable young man of this County, died at the res? idence of his father, Mr. Ira L. Mosely, in Hopewell township, on last Saturday morn? ing, after a long and painful illness. Mr. Mosely was abont thirty-one years of age, and. had been for a number of years a con ^istsnt member of Hopewell Baptist Church, where his remains were interred last Sunday. The family of the deceased have the sympathy of a host of friends in their bereaYoment. II; is with regret that we announce the death of Dr. Henry Elrod, a promising young physician of this County, which oc? curred at his residence in Centerville Town? ship on lost Tuesday night, after a brief illness with pneumonia. Dr. Elrod was a graduate of the South Carolina Medical College, and was in every respect a most excellent young man. He was recently married, and leaves a young wife, together with a* wide circle of friends and relatives to mourn his death. The Industrial Exhibition of the Agricul? tural Society of South Carolina opens in Cb i tries ton next Tuesday, and will contin? ue until the 21st of February. The C. A G. R. R., commencing next Tuesday, will sell round trip tickets to Charleston from, the following stations at the prices named : Anderson, $9.00; Pendleton, $9.95; Wil liamston, $8.85; Bclton, $8.60; Honea Path, $8.25. The tickets can only be pur? chased on Monday, Tuesday and Wednes? day of each Week until the Exhibition closes, and are good for five days. This is an excellent opportunity for our citizens to visit Charleston, and doubtless a number of them will take advantage of it. Artesian Wells. The Baltimore Sun says : Denver, Colorado, which has long been so inadequately and expensively supplied with water, is now rejoicing in four arte? sian wells, which yield 400,000 gallons of an excellent quality per day ; and we are told that she will soon have several others in operation sufficient to supply the grow? ing wants of that young and flourishing city. The Vast plains lying east and west of tho Rocky Mountains will doubtless ere long have a great demand for similar wells, by means of which millions of acres of wa? terless and barren lands can be rendered arable. Wherever there is the scent of water, the least sign of vegetation, these far Western lands are of unrivaled fertility, resembling Peru, which has been likened to a "conservatory without glass." This method of irrigating from subterranean reservoirs is of immense moment to the dwellers amid these sterile regions; and the labor of boring to a depth of only 875 feet?as at Denver?seems fight when com i pared with the 2,200 feet of the saline well at Neusalzwerk, Prussia. The reservoirs j of petroleum springs are of a similar nature to those of artesian welIb, and the process by which the oil is obtained, is precisely the same. Among the serious methods of irrigation which England is adopting for her Eastern possessions will probably bu the introduction of these wells into the desert-like portions of India, where grim, I gaunt famine has so often marched with merciless, all-conquering tread. For the past twenty years French engineers have been actively engaged in sinking a great number of these wells along the western border of the Great Sahara, the province of Constantino alone containing not less than 150, while the work is progressing slowly, but surely, toward the interior. Among the phenomena brought to light by this boring, is the finding of fishes and crabs of delicious flavor at a very great depth. Sci? entists, as usual, are ready with many sage observations, all, however, being' mere theory. The spirit of progress is'abroad reclaiming the waste places of the earth, and literally verifying the Scripture pro? phecy that "the desert shall rejoice und blossom as the ruse." We believe the time is coming when man's inventive genius and. wonderful power of achievement will reduce all the deserts of the earth to smil? ing beauty and happy utility; when ho will indeed be "monarch of all he surveys." Now that the establishment of a:: effi? cient Fire Department in Anderson is con? templated, qnite a difference of opinion has sprung up as to the best mode of supply? ing such department, and a number of our intelligent citizens advocate the boring of one or more artesian wells as the surest and most advantageous means to be adopted for this purpose. One of the serious troubles we have to encounter in establishing a Fire Deportment is the scarcity of water, and the expense of making cisterns. The arte? sian well, it is claimed, would afford both water and power to throw a stream to the top of any house. With such a well the j expense of protection to property from fire would consist in the laying of iron water pipes. This could be done gradually, and wo'Jld afford ample protection as far as tbo pipes extend We do not know of the practical application of these wells to se? curity against fire in any city, but we can see no reason why it would not be quite efficient. The well could also be used for irrigating gardens, furnishing water to dwellings, and for other purposes. The matter should be thoroughly examined into before ar.y decision is made. Flour! Flour! All grades and every bar? rel guaranteed sound or money refunded. C. F. Jones & Co. Netting and Trapping Partridges. One of the best laws passed by the hisi session of the Legislature is that against the practice of indiscriminately netting and trapping partridges. Fur years these birds have been gradually becoming scarcer and scarcer, until now scarcely a covey can be seen in a day's hunt. ?The netters and trappers are exterminating them by coveys wherever they lind them, leaving not a bird from a whole covey for breeding stock, and if the practice is not stopped the pleasant and cherry whistle of "Bob White" will soon be a strange sound in this section. As a warning to those persons now pur? suing this practice of capturing these birds, we publish the law now in force : An Act to prevent the netting and trap? ping of partridges, except by persons upon their own lands. Section 1. That it shall not be lawful for auy person, except upon his own land, to net or trap a partridge. . . Sec. 2. That any person violating this Act shall be guilty of a misdemeanor; and upon conviction, shall be punished by a fine of thirty dollars, or by imprisonment in the County jail for the term of thirty days. Sec 3. That this Act shall go into opera? tion immediately after'its approval. "Our Women la the War." The News and Courier, Charleston, S. C, desires to obtain fifty or more sketches of the experiences, grave or gay, lively or se? vere, of the Southern women during the war. Little has been published hitherto concerning their sufferings, anxieties and privations, and the News and Courier wishes to make the record of the war complete, by giving the American public ? just idea of what the Southern women endured during the struggle for the Lost Cause. There was comedy as well as tragedy in their daily life, and the object is to obtain descriptions of every side and phase of a Southern wo? man's trials and triumphs, at home or as a refugee, during the Confederate Btruggle. The sketches in question will be published in the Weekly News, Charleston, S. C, under the general title of "Our Women in the War." The conditions are as follows: 1. The sketches must be written by Southern women who were in the South during the war, and shall be confined to a description of events and circumstances of which the writers have personal knowledge, and with which they or their families were connnected. 2. Each sketch shall fill not less than fif? teen ncr more than thirty pages of foolscap, written on one side. 3. The sketches shall be sent, with the real name of the writer, to the News and Courier, Charleston, S. C, not later than March 1st. 1884. 4. Every sketch that is accepted will be promptly paid for, and any Southern wo? man who desires to do so can send in two or more sketches. The object in view is certainly an excel? lent one, and it is hoped that Southern wo? men everywhere will do their part in mak? ing the undertaking successful, "in order," as the News and Courier says, "that tardy justice may be rendered to the women who encouraged the soldiers by their pa'ient for? titude and solaced them with words of cheer, and who, through all manner hard? ship,'of anguish,, of misery, were faithful and true to the very end?and after!" A Caret.
