Last Saturday afternoon we went out -to the plantation of Mr. J. C. Keys and -witnessed the operation of the "Cham? pion Light Binder," for -which Messrs. McCuUy, Cathcart <k Co., of this city, are the agents. The machine works quite ?perfectly, cutting the' grain smooth and dean, and tying it up in bundles of equal weight with a hemp cord. It is quite in- , -teresting to watch the working of thin machine, and see how completely it docs the work of many men, much better than the men themselves -would do. The r"Cbarnpion" is substantially built, is not complicated, and can be operated by any .ordinary man. Call on Messrs. McCully, j Cathcart &? Co., and they will take pleas ure in showing you the. machine. j ). The W. C. T. V. in Anderson, t: Mrs. 8. F. Chapin, President of the Wo? man's Christian Temperance Union of -South Carolina, and General Superin? tendent of. the Unions throngbout the Southern States, lectured in the Baptist Church of this city last Sunday afternoon on the subject of temperance. The church was filled to its utmost capacity. The occasion was opened by singing that ?beautiful and appropriate hymn, "Rescue the Perishing," after which Rev. J. .W. W?lling led in prayer. Rev. T. P. Bell then introduced the lecturess. Mrs. Chapin isa very-graceful and en? tertaining speaker, and is thoroughly in earnest in her work, for which she seems specially called. Her address, which j was nearly two hours loug, was listened I to with marked attention. It was replete j with plain, practical arguments, which .produced a profound impression. Her graphic descriptions of the terrible re? sults of alcohol, many of the incidents of which she had witnessed, touched many hearts and brought forth tears. At the conclusion of her remarks she stated that she desired to form a Union, and requested several gentlemeu to pass through the audience and take tbe names. .of those desiring to join. One hundred and twenty ladies gave in their names. On Monday morning another meeting was held in the Methodist Church, when an organization of a Union was effected. Tbe following officers were elected: President?Mrs. J. S. Murray. Gen'l. Vice-President?Mrs. M. Van Wyck. 1st VIce-President?Mrs. L. M. Ayer. ? 2nd ViccPresident?Mrs. A. B. Towers. 3rd Vice-Preaideut?Mrs. J. R. Smith. 4th Vice-President?Mrs. Rosa Webb. ? The election of tbe other officers was postponed to an adjourned meeting Wednesday afternoon. The membership of the Union was increased to over two hundred. Men are also allowed to join, though they are not permitted to vote. On Monday afternoon Mrs. Chapin lectured to the children in the Methodist Church. An organization, known as the "Band of Hope," .was effected among them, with about eighty-6ight members. The election of officers was postponed to an adjourned meeting Wednesday after? noon. , Monday night Mrs. Chapin addressed a very large audience of colored people in their Methodist Church. Her remarks were full of sound advice, and seemed to have made a good impression upon her hearers, as she was listened to very attentively. These people have had a Union in successful operation for some time, and are doing a good work. Mrs. Chapin's visit to Anderson will certainly be productive of much good. She has thoroughly aroused our ladies, who will no doubt go to work in earnest and exert their influence in behalf of temperance. Her visit will long be re? membered, and wherever she goes she will carry the prayers of our people for her success. She left Anderson Tuesday morning for Honea Path, where she in? tended organizing a Union that night. SAYAKNAH VALLEY RAILROAD. The Annual Meeting of the Stockholders at Lowndcaville, 8. C. The annual Convention of the Stock? holders of the Savannah Valley Railroad Company was held at Lowndesville on Wednesday, 14th inst. Dr. S. M. Orr was elected President of the Convention, and J. E. Breazeale Sec? retary. Credentials were called for and dele? gates from the townships and cities which had subscribed were enrolled. Some stockholder* were also present. A large majority of the stock was represented. On motion of E. B. Murray, the tem? porary officers of the Convention were elected the perman&nt officers. The -rPresident submitted his report, whichtis as foUows: To the Stockholders of the Savannah Valley Railroad Company: . . Gentlemen : At the time of our last i meeting the condition of our' Road was one of embarrassment and doubt. The available subscriptions had been expen? ded and the work of construction sus? pended. The present Board, immediate? ly upon assuming the direction of affairs, addressed Itself earnestly to the effort of raising the sum of $25,000 by private sub? scription, the accomplishment of which would have enabled them to realize'the $25,000 subscription from the City of Anderson, which latter was coupled with a condition that a like sum should be realized before it could be available. To this end an active canvass was made for subscriptions along the line of Road and elsewhere, but failed to realize the amount required, when Legislative aid was sought and obtained removing the conditions from the City of Anderson's subscription and rendered it immediately available, and ' authorizing certain Townships in Anderson and Abbeville Counties to make additional subscriptions by taxation to tho capital stock of the Road. Pursuant*thereto, the Townships, of 1 Abbeville have subscribed the sum of $20,000, and petitions are being circula? ted in the Townships of Ande rson Coun ty. asking; the submission of- the question1 of subscription to a vote of the qualified electors of said Townships. The amount proposed to be subscribed by t iese Town? ships aggregates the sum of $15,000. I have every reason to believe that when a vote is reached in these Townships, the result w^ll be favorable to the subscrip? tion.''^ The injunction suit instituted by a few taxpayers of Anderson County was de? cided on circuit in favor of the company, and has been heard on appeal in the Supreme Court; that Court has ordered it lb be reargued on the validity of tbe Act of ' Assembly, denying 'the remedy by injnnotlon, and we have every reason to hope for a favorable issue. The amount involved is only $750. The subscription of $25,000 by the A. & K. to our Road has not been paid; the resolution authorizing the subscription I required the same to be raised from the proceeds of sale of second Mortgage Jjbnds of that Road in the bands of the -company. This was not practicable in tbe then condition'of the company, as the bonds h ad but a small market value. Since our last meeting the Augusta and Knox .viLle R. R. has passed itito the hands of the Port Royal & Augusta B. R., the latter being a part of the Georgia. Central system. This establishes the future ofthat Road upon a firm, basis and commands the confidence of the people in its con? nections and future operations. After a suspension of more than a year, the work of grading our Roacl was re? sumed on tho'13th of last niofitfi by Maj. Twiggs; the contractor, with a force of over one hundred hands, and is progress? ing satisfactorily, and as there were some skips in the work-between Anderson and Lowndesville, the Board thought it advi? sable to join up and complete this work, which it is estimated can be done in two months, and will giye us a section of twenty-five continuous miles of comple? ted work, besides the ten miles completed uorth of Little River. Maj. Thos. B. Lee, our former Chief Engineer, is in charge of the Columbia Canal and could not giye that entire attention to our Road which its necessi? ties required. In severing our connection with Maj. Lee, the Board take great pleas? ure in bearing testimony to his great in? dustry, fidelity and ability. Col. Charles S. Dwigbt has been elect? ed Chief Engineer of the Road, and has taken charge with Mr. Mitchell as his assistant, both of whom were highly recommended in their respective spheres, and so far have given entire. satisfaction, i The Board of Directors have accepted the City Bonds of Anderson, $25,000 issue, in payment of the subscription of that amount to the capital stock of our com? pany. The Bonds have been printed, are now being signed up by the City authorities, and will soon be ready for delivery to the company. The time not being propitious, owing to the scarcity of money, to sell those Bonds, and believing them to be a first class security, the Board have re? solved not to offer them for sale until Fall, and have in the meantime arranged to effect a loan of amount needed upon a pledge of the bonds as security. . The financial condition of the company is fully explained and set forth in tbe Report of \v. S. Ligon, Treasurer, which is herewith submitted. ! / W. W. Humphreys," President.

Re? port submitted tbe following, which' was, on motion, adopted: The committee to whom was referred the Report of the President beg leave re? spectfully to report that they have duly considered the same, and are gratified to find tbe prospecis of the Road In bo prom? ising a condition^ They recommend that the Report be received as information and adopted by the Convention. The committee further recommend that the President and Board of Directors be instructed to look after the subscription of the A. & K. Railroad to this Road, and take such action as they may deem proper in relation thereto. All of which is respectfully submitted. E. B. Murray, Ch'm'n. On motion of H. H?

Maj. E. B. Murray offered the follow? ing resolution, which was adopted: Resolved, That the Board of Directors, before locating any depots along the line of the Savannah valley Railroad, be and they are hereby instructed as far as prac? ticable to secure the grading of sidings and the erection of depots by the commu? nities securing them, and for this purpose to receive competitive offers from suit? able points al,ong the line.
