The present outlookfor the ?wm??

hetod sevttrfcl tomeo* ??? warton* fl
tiona of the County say, however, that
they have not Buffered from the drouth,
and that they will make tho beat crop
they have made lu several yean. These
are comparatively few, though. The ma
jority of the farmers owe their entire cot
ton crop, not having been able to pay oat
but Fall on account of the short crop,
and unless the price of cotton remains up
they will not be able to meet their obli
gations this Fall. The past Summer has
been a bani one with everybody, and we
believe our pooplo have been more eco
nomical on that account, therefore the
amount of their indebtedness for this
year's supplies is not as much as it would
have been under other circumstances.
There are a great many farmers who do
not think their crop will be as good as
last year, and all of them are gloomy aa
to tho outlook. Another hard ye*r is
ahead of us, and we should prepare for
it by a large sowing cf oats, wheat and
barley. From all reports we are of the
opinion that the crop of the County will
be about three-fourths of an average crop.

Tb/ Ba vannait Valley I! n Uro ntl.
The vote in the different Townships of
this County, on the question of subscrib
ing $15,000 additional to tho Savannah
Valley Railroad, last Saturday resulted in
an overwhelming defeat-in fact, a com
plete stampede of the friends of the sub
scription. Tho following ls tho vote upon
tho quoit i on by townships :
Brjadway-For subscription, 4 ; against
subscription, 224.
Sivannah-For subscription, 3 ; against
subscription, 100.
Varennti- For subscription, 4* ; against
subscription, 182.
Centreville-For subscription,23 ; against
subscription, 200.
Corner-For subscription, 38 ? against
subscription, 09.
Hall-For sub*c riptlon, 47 ; against sub
scription, 129.
Total for subscription, 163; agaiustsub
he ri pt ion, 1,000
Sevoral thing? conspired to produce thin
result.
First, aud wo believe foremost of all,
waB the belief that the road will be built
any way, as tho City of Anderson can
not afford to let the enterprise die. This
was used freely In all the Townships,
and doubtless had a strong influence in
inducing people to voto against the sub
bcription. They believed they would get
tho road without voting any taxation.
Second, and nearly or quite as strong a
factor in producing the result, was the
very Bhort crop of the present -?ear. Our
farmers aro very blue as to thc prospecta
of tho coming year, from the fact that
they aro in debt for last year, and are
making a very short crop this year.
Hence, many friends of the road voted
against the tax, for they folt that in tho
present stringent condition of money
matters they could not afford to take fif
teen thousand dollars out of tho Town
ships namod.
In the third place, the friends of the
road became discouraged, and numbers
of them did not go out to vote ; and lest,
but not least, was the fact that a very large
number of voters were opposed to the
subscription under any circumstances.
We regret the result of the election, and
think our friends in tho Townships nam
ed have missed an opportunity to tnako a
certainty of a valuable publie improve
ment ; but they have decided it by a very
nearly Un mi wm J nu voie, in Borne iustaucea,
and it is no use to grieve over spilt milk.
We trust some means may yet be devised
to complete the road. What tho moans
are to be, We are not now propared to
say, but too much work bas been done to
be lost, and though the work may be do
layed, we must not look upon the road
as a failure. It moat and will be built.
Town vi ile Correspondence)*
A most distressing accident occurred
last Wednesday, the 10th, at 4 o'clok p.
m., on Maj. D. L- Cox's place, wbioh re- 1
suited in the death of Mr. T. J. Brown
ing's 16-yesr-old son George.
Tho young man was driving a load of
fodder drawn by two mulei from ..the
field to the Louee. On the way a part of
tho load slid forward, carrying tho young
man with lt. He caught upon tho dou
ble-tree. This frightened tho team, which
began to run at full *\ cd. A hundred
yards from the point of starting the team
ran against a partly decayed stump about
two and a half feet high and some ten
inches through. Between this stump
and the wagon bed the young man was
eaught and crushed. The concussion was
so great as to force the stump asunder,
and the team dashing on tho young; man
dropped to the ground limp and dying.
Ola father, who was tieing fodder close
by, got to the scene in a moment and
raising his poor boy's head tenderly
beard bim utter a faint, piteous call for
bis mother. He expired in a few minutes,
bis head resting on bis father's arm, the
internal hemortbage oozing the while
from hui nose and month. The' wounds
constated of a severe bruise on the aide of |
the tace, the literal crashing of the left
.Ide, and the fracture of the left arm
above and below the elbow. The spinal
column was also injured.
The young man was a consistent mern*
ber of the Church, and was Mr. Brown*
big's only soo. The bereaved mother ia
an invalid and blind, so that tho shock
folla upon hor with great heaviness.
If r. lohn O. Cox was scated on the rear
part of the load when the molas began. to
roo, and after the yoong man, who was
driving, had fallen off, ho Jumped to .tbs

PEUDL?TON, 8. C. Sept. 15tb, 1884.
Mr. Editor: Wo hsve just closed s se
ries of ineetiugs that have been In pro
gress for ten days, under the direction of |
Rav. J. DeWitt Burkhesd, of Texas, who
ls spending a vacation of several months
in this State among friends.
This vacation, though intended forrest,
up to this time has been, and if accepted,
would be incessant work for more than
one and ono-half years, he having appli
cations to cover that time now, aud these
applications extend from California to
Maine.
His time is wholly occupied in preach
ing tho Goepel ; and when I say the Gos
pol. I mean it In the strictest sense of the
word. For sound reason and logie, ibis
good man of God, in my judgment, bas
few equals, and no superiors in tho Unit
ed States.
His interpretations of tho Blblo and ita
teachings are simple and yet sublime,
and seldom falls to carry conviction to
the heart of his hearers. His teachings,
in some respecta, aro directly opposed to
the ideas advanced by many preachers of j
all denominations, but ho invariably
proves his assertions by undeniable
Biblical facts; sometime making state
ments, which, though startling at ?rst,
yet becoiuo self-evident trutb.i after his
explanation. His preaching is different,
probably, from that of any other, and
whoo he appeals to man's intelligence to
see the beauties of religion, how much
easier it scorns to serve our Loni and
Saviour after we havo taken in the truths
promulgated aud expounded by this emi
nent man of God.
Of all Evangelists he is the ono calcula
ted to advance Christ's Kingdom here on
earth. It ls ovident that such work 1?
very much noeded here In our country ;
therefore, would it not be wiso for our
Synod, soon to meet, to employ Mr.
Burkhead for twelve months at least*
The funds necessary to secure his ser
vices need not prove any barrier, for If |
secured, rest assurod that ho will bring
tenfold moro into the treasury than lt
i w?i cost to obtain bli mid th the advance
ment of tho Church of Chrlot.

An Editor's Experience
After trying numerous remedies for
Rhcumatibin. but without permanent relief,'
I Was advised to use 3- ?. 8.. which had
given permanent relief to others suffering
from rheumatism. After taking haifa
dossh bettles I found that tho disease was
entirely driven out of my system, and a
permanent bare secured. This was over
a year ago, and since then, even during
oar most severe weather, with sudden
chancea, I have never suffered a return
of the old attack? which disabled me from
editorial work.
It la very seldom, indeed, that I recom
mend anything to the publie In this man
ner, but J feel it due to your valuable
