The foolish man foldeth bis arms and saith: "There is no trade?why should I advertise ?" But tbe wise man is not so. He wboopeth it up in the newspapers, and verily he draweth trade afar off. At the recent examination of school teachers in Winnsboro the question, "What is interest?" was answered thus: "Intrust am er sum uv munie what am pade phnr de use uv munie borrid." There were fully two hundred drove mules in tbe city last Monday. They are selling at from $75 to $125. We heard one dealer say he had sold about sixty five mules since tbe middle of December. Tbe many friends of onr former fellow citizen, Mr. W. W. Keys, of the Baptist Courier, Greenville, S. C, were glad to see him in tbe city for several days during the past week. He looks as if Greenville is treating him well. Onion socials are all the rage in some parts of the country just now, and this is how they are worked: Six ladies take an onion with them into a room, and one of them takes a bite of it. Then a young gentleman is admitted to tbe game, and if, after kissing tbem all. he fails to tell which of tbem bit the onion, why then all the girls kiss him; ' If anything happens in your neighbor? hood worth mentioning in these columns, send us the particulars on a postal card. Marriages, deaths, accidents, &c, are news, and if you will send us such items we will appreciate it.. Mr. Joshua W. Ashley, of Honea Path township, had his barn burned down on Sunday"morning. 25th ult., together with about fifty bushels of oats and a lot of "roughness." The loss amounts to about $200. The fire was accidental. Mr. J. S. Perrin, of the Messenger, Abbe? ville, S. C, spent last Thursday night in the city in attendance upon the Ball. He paid the Intelligencer a call on Friday morning. He is an affable young gentle? man, and is connected with an excellent paper. The crowd in the city on Salesday was very large. We saw comparatively few drunk men. Some of the merchants re? port a good business, while others say their sales were not larga. As usual, the horeeswappers wero busy throughout the day. Prof. Wiggins advises everybody to prepare for great storms, which are book? ed for the ISth to 20th of March. He says there will be cyclones, tornadoes, hurri? canes and overytbing of the kind. Cut this out and paste it in your hat, and you will not forget the dates. The Concert given by some of the young people of Williamston in that town on last Thursday evening, for the benefit of the Brass Band, is said to have been a grand success. About $50 was realizod. The people of Williamston never fail to make a success of anything they under? take. List of letters remaining In the Post office for the week ending February 4: Eliab Ambrose, J. M. Bay, Miss Lizzie Gable (2), R. D. Galbraith. Miss Lula Grimes, Corrie Harris, Miss Anna Heyes, Cross Johnson, John Kay, Lewis & Co., Rob't Martin (col.), L. MoDowell, S. T. O'Briant Married, in the Baptist Church, in this city, on Tuesday evening, 3rd inst, by Rev. T. P. Bell, Mr. Rufus Fant and Miss Pearl R. Cochran, eldest daughter of Col. John R. Cocbran. The young couple have the best wishes of a host of friends for a happy and prosperous journey through life. Mr. L. P. Smith is arranging to carry an excursion party to the Exposition. He will leave Anderson on the 12th inst, so as to be in New Orleans during the Marda Gras and on South Carolina's day. Per? sons contemplating going should consult Mr. Smith. His party will go by the At lanta cfc West Point Road, which is a pleasant and qnick route. The ladies of the Baptist Church will have a dinner and supper on next Wednesday in the Palmetto Riflemens' Armory, over W. S. Ligon & Co.'s store. They will be ready to serve dinner from 12 o'clock on into the afternoon and even? ing. The proceeds of the entertainment are to be given to the fund for a new Church building. "What kind of a dog is that?" asked one gentleman of another, pointing to a dog as they were passing through tue hotel yard tbe other day. "That's a set? ter," he replied. "Ob, no ; you are mis? taken." "No, I am not. That dog sets here all day waiting for a bone to be thrown out of the kitchen." Tbe inquir? ing gentleman paid for the drinks. . At a meeting of Grange, No. 71, held last Saturday, the following officers were elected to serve tbe ensuing year: W. W. Humphreys, W. M.; B. F. Crayton, L.; T. F. Drake, S.; E. F. Reed, A. S. ; G. F. Tolly, C.; J. W. Daniels, T.; J. W. Nor ris, Sec.; J. A. Drake, G. K.; Mrs. J. W. Norri8, C.; Mrs. W. W. Humphreys, P.; Mrs. T. F. Drake, F.; Mrs. G. W. Miller, L. A. S. The young white man referred to last week as having been killed at J. H. Bow den's saw mill, in Pendleton township, was named Rob't L. El more. The facts developed at tbe inquest showed that the young man was killed while unloading some logs from a wagon. He w?s in the act of throwing a log otf of the wagon, when one end rebounded, striking him on tbe head and producing death almost in? stantly. Rev. L. W. Tribble and Mr. G. W. Grubbs have recently become residents of tbe city, occupying tbe residence of the late Daniel Brown, on south Main street. They are from Honea Path township, though the latter gentleman has been re? siding near Anderson for a year past. These gentlemen have come to Andeison for the purpose of schooling their chil? dren. The guano agents of Greenville have combined and made lists of such parties as have neither settled, made satisfactory arrangements nor given satisfactory rea | sons for not having settled for fertilizers purchased in 1884. The names of all such are registered. The almost total failure of crops doubtless left many una able to pay, but it is considered that every honest man could settle, secure, arrange or explain. This is a good idea. The Greenville Enterprise a>id Mountain? eer, of last week, says Dr. G. F. Jenkins, the practicing physlciau at Pelzer, while going from the drug store Saturday night, 24th ult, fell and broke his leg just above the ankle bone. Dr. Brown, of William? ston, was sent for at ouco to set the broken bone. It has been very painful, but we hope it will not bo long until ho can be up again. The Doctor has many friends to sympathize with him in his suffering. At the call meeting of Pomona Grange, held last Saturday, the following officers were elected : J. W. Norris, W. M.; J. Belton Watson, 0.; J. C. Watkins, L.; Wm. Davis, S.; E. M. Snipes, A. S. ; Jep tha Harper, C.: Robt. Moorhead, Treas.; L. W. Gentry, Sec.; John Brown, G. K.; Mrs. J. W. Norris, C.; Mrs. W. B Quails, P.; Mrs. P. R. Brown, F.; Mrs. Anno J Daricote, L. A. S. These officers will be j installed on tbe first Saturday in April next. "I think the City Council should buy a Hook and Ladder Truck, with the neces? sary outfit, and turn it over to the colored citizens," said a substantial citizen the other day. We agree with him. There are a number of colored men in the city who always do good work at a fire, and by giviug them the apparatus referred to they would be of more service in the fu? ture. The Council should considor this matter, and, if possible, carry out the sug? gestion made. Wo believe the taxpayers of the city will endorse the suggeition. Abbeville Medium, 28th ult.: "Calhoun Hamlin, who now lives in Anderson County, was down last week to see his many friends and acquaintances in this place. Ho is happily married to a most excellent woman, and has a bright and promising boy. Ho devotes his whole time to farming, and Inst year (us bad as it was) made on a two horso farm 15 bales of cotton and 500 bushels of corn. This farm lie? on Wilson's Creek, and tho evi? dence of his success in raising corn is seen in hie hogs, three of which weighed 1,0T4 pounds net. One of bis bogs, only I 14 months old, weighed 430 pounds net. I He was driving as fine a pair of Kentucky bred matches as have been in town in many days. They threw the miles be? hind ihem in fine style." As will be seen by reference to the first column of the fourth page of the Intel? ligencer this week, an educational de? partment has been established in our col? umns, with Anderson County's indefati? gable and energetic School Commissioner, Col. John G. Clinkscales. as editor. It is established more especially for tho edifi? cation of school teachers, and to create a new zeal in the educational interests of our County. Col. Clink.scales is an able, fluent writer, and will make his depart? ment an interesting featnr? of the intel? ligencer. A certain bashful young gentleman of "?is city paid his favorite young lady a visit one night labt week, as he is wont to do regularly onco every week, and lias been doing for a year or more. He has never spoken a word of love to-her. Du? ring the evening in question, she asked him if he was fond of candy. "Yes, I am," he replied ; "I lovo anything that is sweet." "Then you love me ?" she asked. "Of course I do," said he in a trembling voice. ''Well, why in tho d?1 hav'nt you said so before now. Pa is getting tired of furnishing kerosene and wood for you, and he won't stand it much longer." There is going to bo a wedding some time in the future. A most unfortunate accident occurred on the plantation of Mr. Hugh Mahafiey, neur Williamston, last Sunday afternoon, resulting in the death of Henry Burinore, a 7-year old colored child. From the facts developed at the inquest, which was held by Coroner Nance on last Monday, it seems that Webt Richardson and John Ham biet on, both colored boys, met at the house whore the accident occurred. Both bad pistols, and wero exhibiting them to each other. One of them proposed to swap with the other. They then went out into the yard, directly in front of the door, to talk the matter over. While standing there examining and snapping the pistols, Hambleton's ;wos discharged, the ball entering the eye-ball and pene? trating the base of the brain of the child, who was sitting on the floor inside the door, producing death instantly. Ham bletou says his pistol was not loaded when he first produced it, but during the conversation Richardson had placed a cartridge into it without bis knowledge. The jury of inquest;returned a verdict in accordance with the above facts. The Mftrknt.

Mr. Charles Eden, of Trinidad, Colorado, says : Seeing certificates of the wonderful cures made by Brewer's Lung Restorer, I was induced to try it on my little son, who was troubled with lung or throat affection, pronounced by one physician consumption. It acted wonderfully on him, und by the time he hud taken one bottle of it the cough disappeared. I am now on a visit to my parents in Georgia, but will return in a few days to my home and will take some of the Lung Restorer with me. 3t) Cancer Conquered. The Swift Specific Company have the most indubitable evidence as to the cure of Cancer by their famous medicine, S. S. S. Among others, John S Morrow, an old and highly esteemed citizen of Flor? ence, Ala., makes the following statement as to the morlt? of this remedy : "I have been Hollering with a Cancer in my right ear, for about three years. I tried various remedies und was treuted with Iodide of Potash, which produced rheumatism. My feet and legs were greatly swollen, so that I could not walk. About one your ago I was induced to try Swift's Specific, which soon removed the trouble in my limbs, and my rheuma? tism is now entirely gone and my Cancer is steadily improving, being better now than at any time within two years. This medicine has done me more good than anything else I have taken, and I feel that I am on the road to a speedy cure. Undoubtedly Swift's Specific is the best blood purifier in the world." John S. Morrow. Florence, Ala., Sept. 22, 1084. I have had a cancer on my face for many years. I have tried a great many reme? dies, but without relief I almost gave up hope of ever being cured. Dr. Hardtnan, my bon, recommended Swift's Specific, which I have taken with great results. My faco is almost well, and it is impossi? ble for me to express my thanks in words for what this medicine has done for me. Mrs. Olive Hard max. ...onroe, Ga., Sept. 2, 1884.

None* can fail to sec that this plan will work to the mutual advantage both of ourselves and our friends; for, as we take no risks, we can, as a matter of course, afford to sell cheaper than we could otherwise. We would also remind the good people of this City and County that anything a gentleman needs in the way of Wearing Apparel can always be found at our Establishment; and as the Spring approachee, and men usually like to look their best in that Season, wc shall pay special and particular attention to latest styles.
