Mr. J. C. Hamlin killed three hogs late?
ly which netted 1,084 pounds, the oldest
one being fourteen months old and weigh?

made forty gallons of lard. Mr. W. T.
Dean killed three which netted 1,153
pounds, the largest one weighing 413.
Mr. B. D. Martin killed one weighing 596
pounds. All of these were County raised
hogs, and show that oar people can raise
their own meat if they will. There is no
necessity to have our meal bouses in the
West.
I In cases of diphtheria, says an ex?
change, there are some remedies of simple
application which can be used by every?
body, and where the disease is suspected
some of these medicines should be ap?
plied. The disease oltens grows very
rapidly, and if a simple remedy is ap?
plied while a physician is being sent for
good results may be obtained. Gargles of
chlorate of potassium or of alcohol. A
medicine that is used by physicians is the
1 tincture of chloride of iron, which can be
bad at any drug store. The dose for an
adult is fifteen drops every half hour
until the patient perspires, when the dan?
ger is over. The medicine should be
kept in the bouse for use in sudden cases.
Mr. M. J. O'Neal, who resides near Pen
dleton, in this County, bad the misfor?
tune to bave bis barn and stables burned
last Sunday, about 12 o'clock. In the
stables were two mules and a milk cow,
which were also consumed. One of the
mules belonged to Mr. J. S. Fowler and
the other to Mr. J. C. Drennan, both of
this city. A lot of corn, fodder, &c., was
also consumed with the barn. It is not
known how the fire originated. A few
days prior to this, Mr. O'Neal had two
bales of cotton destroyed by fire while
hauling them fiom the gin. It is sup?
posed that before leaving the gin a spark
from the engine lodged in the cotton.
The cotton was not discovered on fire
until be bad gone a mile or more from
the gin, when it was too late to save it.
These losses fall quite heavy on Mr.
O'Neal, who' is a worthy, industrious
young man.
Tbe election upon the question of
license or no license in tbe City of Ander?
son, on lust Thursday, resulted in a victory
for the advocates of license by a majority
of twenty-two votes. The lull registra?
tion was 410, of which only 374 voted, as
follows: For license 198; against license
176. Tbe election was hotly contested,
but passed off without serious distur?
bance. Tbe license men bad their voters
better in band than the dry men, and
polled very nearly their full strength,
while tbe dry men lost both in tbe regis?
tration and in the election poll. Tbe ma?
jority of tbe colored vote was cast in
favor of license, though through the in?
fluence of Rev. B. F. Witherspoon and
Rev. L. T. Smith,, of the Methodist and
Baptist Churches respectively, about forty
out of 159 registered colored voters voted
against license. This left the white vote,
as near as can be ascertained, about 80
for license to 13C against it. The election
fixes license for two years longer, unless
tbe legislature gives us tbe right to vote
upon tbe subject in the County. Petitions
with over 1000 signatures of substantial
citizens have been forwarded to the legis?
lature asking the right to hold a County
election, and we bave no doubt the right
will be granted. It will be done unless
our representatives refuse to give the
people the right to decide the matter for
themselves, and we have no idea that they
will take any such unreasonable position.
The question of building a commodious
hotel in Anderson is being agitated by
quite a number of our citizens at present.
We think it is timely and appropriate,
for if there ever was a place that needed a
large hotel, that place is Anderson. In?
deed, during any public occasion our
facilities for entertaining visitors are in?
adequate. Every Summer there are per?
sons who would come to Anderson to
spend a mouth or two could they get ac?
commodations. The building of a large
hotel, therefore, is a matter that every
citizen is interested in, and wo believe,
were the proper efforts made, it would be
only a short time before such a building
would be erected in our midst. Several
plans have been suggested as to the best
mode of starting thi i enterprise. We
think the best plan that has been suggest?
ed is to call a meeting of our citizens and
organize a joint stock company, electing
men of integrity and thorough business
qualifications as its officers, then placing
the shares at one hundred dollars euch,
which would enable each and every citi?
zen, who feels any pride in seeing Ander?
son built up, to become a stockholder.
By following this plan, we think enough
money could be easily raised to erect a
building that would compare favorably
'with any hotel in tbe State. Several of
our public spirited citizens, who owrm-al
uable lots near the Court House Square,
have expressed a willingness to put in
their lots at a reasonable price and take
their value in stock. We have conversed
with quite a number of our citizens upon
this subject, and everyone is in favor of
the enterprise. All that is needed is for
some live man to take the lead. Who
will do it? Anderson needs the hotel
and must have it.

An Incident, of tho Lato War.
The following article appeared in the
Richmond (Va.) Dhpatch during the year
1SG3:
"One of the most effecting scenes that
has occurred during this war was wit?
nessed at Chester, Virginia, on Saturday
lost.
"At the commencement of the warLar
kin Estes and his son, James Jackson
Estes, aged respectively sixty-rive and
twenty-six years, two highly respectable
citizens of Anderson District, South Car?
olina, were residing in that place and
prosperous in business. When the tocsin
of war was sounded they nobly volun?
teered in Company D, lfith Regiment of
South Carolina Volunteers, and were soon
on their way to the theatre of war, in Vir?
ginia, to meet the ruthless inva iers of our
soil. They passed through all the battles
fought in Virginia. On Friday last, in
the battle near Chester, Virginia, their
regiment was engaged, when the son,
Jamos Jackson Estes, was shot down
while in the act of charging the enemy's
breastworks. His father, seeing him fall,
went to assist him from the field, when he
himself was also severely wounded. The
father and son were then both taken up
and carried to Chester and laid side by
side in the hotel. The father being able
to set up, sat by the side ol his son, doing
all he could to relieve his sufferings, and
on the next morning that son, lying pros?
trate from the wound he had received
died in the sight and by the side of his
wounded father. The old, grey-haired
patriot, bowed down with grief, and suf?
fering from tbe wound he had received,
talked freely of the hardships that he and
his son had shared together tor three long
years, and expressed the hope that his
son, who had fallen while nobly discharg?
ing his duty to his country, had gone to a
better world. The old man then express?
ed a strong hope that his own wound
might not prove fatal; that he might be
spared to return to his regiment to avenge
the death of his son and assist in driving'
the invaders from the South, which then
might enjoy once more liberty and inde?
pendence, and be forever freed from the
Northern vandal."
Mr. Larkin Estes, tbe old gentleman
I referred to above, is still living, and is a
highly esteemed citizen of Williamston
township, this County. He is now nearly
6ighty-seven years bid. He served his
country faithfully through the war, and,
despite his age, he is still remarkably
vigorous. We trust he may live to te e
brate his centennial anniversary.

THE FAMOUS
TROTTING MATCH
0
"J. I. C, the celebrated trotting
horse, (named after his owner J. 1.
Case, Esq.,) was recently entered
at Prospect Park, Brooklyn, to low?
er his own record of 2.10, so as to
beat "Maud S," Vanderbilt's great
mare, the fastest animal on record,
and whose time was 2.09}. The ex?
citement was intense, 6,000 people
having assembled to witness the
contest, every one being eager and
expectantly looking for the favor?
ite to appear. At about 3 o'clock
p. m. "J. I. C," amid tremendous
applause, came down the track,
passing the Grand Stand of the
Judges, throwing first one ear and
then the other forward, as if in re?
cognition of the cheering of the
crowd, then passing once around
the race course, just to get warmed
up and prepare himself for the race,
the excitement running higher eve?
ry minute, until "He is off! He
is off!" echoed through the crowd.
And sure enough, he was off! With
rapid strides he moved on, on, in?
creasing his speed at every step,
fairly flying through the air, as if by
magic, passing around the curves
like a whirlwind ; then coming in
JA&in view of the spectators, every
ody on tip-toe, ana the excitement
of the people was at fever heat to
get a glimpse of the beautiful black
steed as he -dashed along. Passing
by the Grand Stand he slacked up,
and after returning in front of the
Judges' Stand, in a few moments
the Board announced the record at
2.18}, at the second trial at 2.14,
and the third time at 2.12J.
Now, ladies aud gentlemen, we
want it understood that we are al?
ways in the race for giving low pri?
ces, and competing in our lines le?
gitimately with ANYBODY, and
we propose to lower our record. We
hang out the board:
