Hill Bros., drug? gists, have recently sent out to their ous-. tomere and friends. Besides telling what they keep in stock, it ia full of interesting matter. This is enterprising, and is no ?doubt appreciated by the friends of this clever firm. Onr former young townsman, Mr. F. E. Harrison, who has been residing at New berry for several months past, has moved to Abb-jville, where he has accepted the position of prescription clerk in the lead ing rirug store in that town. The firm which has engaged his services could not have made a better selection. The farmers say the small grain crop is seriously injured. 'In some sections of the County it Is said that not more than one third of an average crop of Fall oats will be made. Several gentlemen have told us that their-barley crop is nearly all killed out. It is something unusual for barley to be killed in this country. Messrs. Means & McGee are receiving their Spring stock of gents' furnishing goods, clothing, bats, shoes, &c. When yon visit the city, young man. call at their store. The gentlemen composing the firm are polite and accommodating, and will take great pleasure in showing you their goods, at the same time giving you full valne for your money.

The horse was giyon to Mr. Spearman, by his father before she was foaled, and he has owned her ever since. He was great ! ly attached to her on account of her gen ! tit, docile disposition. A woman or child could drive her anywhere with safety. During her life time she made several trips to Alabama and Georgia Six colts fcere raised by her. Mr. B. L. Johnson died at his homo in Beltoti township on Thursday, 19th Feb? ruary, after a lingering illness with a complication of diseases. Mr. Johnson was one of Anderson County's best citi? zens, and iiia death.is regretted by a wide circle of friends and acquaintances. In his immediate neighborhood he was re. cognized as a leader in the Church, Sun? day School and the temperance cause, in all of which he exerted considerable in? fluence and did good work. He was a faithful soldier throughout the war, serv? ing iu Company "G," Second Rifles. He was a member of Big Creek Baptist Chnrcb, where bis remains were interred, Revs. R, WYBurts and D. W. Hiott con? ducting the funeral services. He leaves a wife and two children. The Greenville News, of last Sunday, says: "As the np-passenger train on the O. a, J. R. R. was approaching Belton yesterday afternoon, the engineer discov? ered a -number of uticks of cord wood piled "along the rrack. He immediately blew his danger signal and put down the air brakes, but did-not succeed in stopping the train until half of it had passed the obstruction, which was thrown aside by the cow catcher. The wood had been placed along the rails in such a way as to catch the wheels and throw the ongine from the track, and the job had evidently been done by a railroad man or by some one familiar with engine wheel/ and their movements. The logs were cleared away and the train came in without further in? terruption. No clue to the authors of the attempt to commit murder and injure property was obtained." Wo regret to announc ? the death of Matthew Breazeale, Esq., who died at his residence near Belton, S. C, lost Friday night, in the 72nd year of his age, of heart disease. He had been confined to his bouse three.or. fonr weeks, but death came to him suddenly while talking to his wife. He leaves a large family aud a host of frienda to mourn bis death. Mr. Breaz? eale was born and raised in about a half of a mile of where he-afterwards settled and resided until his death, thus living all of his lifo in the same community, where be had by bis many good qualities endeared himself to all who knew him. Of him it may be truly said that ho was a kind and affectionate husband and parent, a faithful friend, n good neighbor, a val? uable citizen, a peace-malcor in the com? munity, a friend to the poor and suffer? ing, and an honest and upright man. Those who knew him best loved him most. He was for several yoars.before and during the late war a Magistrate of this County, and for awhile since the war a Trial Justice1 He was often known to get on bis horse and go to see parties for the purpose of preventing threatened liti? gation before him. He was a peace? making officer. His remains were in? terred in the Baptist cemetery at Belton, after appropriate and touching funeral services in the Baptist Church, conducted by Rev. Charles Manly, D. D., on last Sunday at 11 o'clock a. m. Although the weather was inclement, the Church could not accommodate all of the man}' friends of the deceased who bad assembled to pay this tribute of respect to his memory and to mingle their grief with that of the bereaved family.

Judge Pressloy has worked moat dili? gently and rapidly since Court opened, and will by the end of the term hear every case that ia ready for trial upon any dock? et. When the Court opened the lawyers had no idea that they would be enabled to try the bulk of the civil business, but the vigor with which the presiding Judge has taken hold of the work has surprised them. More work has been done than has been accomplished at any term for some time past. Judge Pressley is one of the ablest, fail est and most diligent Judges on the Bench. . A Remarkable Man Dead. Moffattsvilxe, S. C, Feb. 23. , Editors Intelligenter:.! think the follow? ing worthy of mention in your valuable paper: I was called professionally to see one of the oldest men in all this country ?old "uncle" Johnnie Saigler. He died on Thursday evening, the 12th day ?f February, from congestion of the lungs. If the deceased had lived until the 12th day of June next, he would have com? pleted hia 97th year. How few at this day and time even approximate such an age. He was a remarkable man in many particulars. Healthy all his life; lived almost exclusively on the very plainest diet, "his corn-bread, bacon and greens." Dyspepsia, tlio commonest complaint of our entire Southern country, was un? known to him, furnishing another proof that plain living, it'"no' the most palata? ble,- is certainly the moit healthy. He lived on this kind of diet until the day of his death, often remarking that nothing suited him half * > well. Being always accustomed to u hard and industrious life, ho was not contented unless engaged at some manual work, and did so up to a month or so before his death. He was liked by all who knew li?ni, youug and old; was kind, charitable, energetic and hottest to the bone. You have often heard of "honest Billy." He was cer? tainly known as "honest Johnnie." He was not widely known, for he was al? ways happier and better contented at his own hum ble little log cabin. He believed right was. right, and bis motto was the golden rule?to do unto others cs he would be done by. tie never made a profession of religion, but always lived a strict, moral, upright and consistent life. His belief aa to the future world was sim? ply this: that if he lived honest and up? right, and treated all mankind as neigh? bors, ho would be rewarded hereafter. This one fact is certain : that the entire community in which he lived will miss the good, brawny, honest face of old Undo Johnnie. Peace be to his riiemory. R. A. R. Grand Jnry's 1'reaentment. To his Honor B. C. Pressley, presiding Judge of the Court of General Sessions for Ander? son County: The Grand Jury for Anderson County at this the first term of the Court for the year 1885 beg leave to submit the follow? ing roporl: That we have discharged the dutios committed to us at this term of the Court. That we have through committees from our body examined the several County ocffies, jail and poor house, and find them in good order. There are some re? pairs needed about the jail. A great many glass are out of the windows and should be^eplaced. Wo think also that the prisoners ehould be required to keep themselves and their cells more cleanly. That the several County officers seem quite efficient and their books neatly and correctly kept. They are all sadly in need of nioro room and furniture. We find the office now occupied by the Treasurer entirely too small to admit of such arrangements as would enable that officer to transact Iiis business with facili? ty. Considering the importance of the office and the accumulation of books and papers, and the largo number of persons necessarily having business there, we re? commend that our County Commission? ers provide some more com mod io us place where the taxpayers can be waited on with less inconvenience to themselves than under the . present arrangement. This change would place the Grand Jury in possession of their old room which they very much need. That the Auditor's office needs a deak' and some furniture to protect the books and papers of the office, and we recom? mend that the County Commissioner have the necessary furniture made. We glanced over the bill to simplify and make more oflicient the law in rela? tion to tbo assessment and collection of taxes, recommended by tbo tax commis? sion and to be acted upon by our nixt Legislature, and we would respectfully suggest to our Senator aud Representa? tives that they would do well to viait the offices of our County Auditor and Treas? urer and inform themselves thoroughly upon these matters. Wo suggest this be? cause those officers are well 'acquainted with the business and can givo a great many valuable suggestions. Our present system is greatly in need of simplifica? tion. Our Treasurer and Auditor are en? gaged in the practical part of the tax busi? ness and are capable of giving valuable information on our system for collecting, taxes. We see that the average assessment of lands for Anderson County ia $5.14 per aero. Abbeville $3 97, Aiken $1.87, Edge field $3.31, Richland $2.85, Newberry $1. 57, Sparenburg $4.45, Greenville $1.23, Wllliamsburg $1.27, Barn well $2.25, Hor ry 98 cents, <&c. This to us seems unjust, and we think this valuation should be more fairly and Justly equalized by oar State Board of Equalization. We would recommend that our members of the leg? islature take this matter in charge and endeavor to provide some means of re? lief. The personal valuations are very well managed by our County Board of Equalization. That the School Commissioner's offlc? should be provided with some chairs and a case for filing and preservation of pa? pers. We are unable to make any report as to the business of our Trial Justices, as none of them have presented their bookB for examination. We recommend that they be required to have their books before the Grand Jury at least once during the year for examination. The reports of the County Commission? ers, School Commissioner and Treasurer have been submitted for our examination, aud far as we are able to judge in our limited time they are correct, and we pre? sent them herewith. We would call attention to the recent acts of the Legislature in regard to com? mitments of lunatics to tho Asylum, and recommend their enforcement. We find tho roads, as usual at this sea? son of the year, in a very bad condition, and we recommend that our County Commissioners have them put in good order as soon as the weather will admit. We also recommend that our County Commissioners proceed at once to have the bridge on Broadmonth creek, on the road leading from Hones Path to Calhoun, pn- in good ropair. The number of inmates in ttie poor house is 31?whites 15 and colored 16; number able to work, whites 7 and col ored4. Their general health is good. The stock is good except the cattle, and the condition of the cattle is only ordi? nary. Some of the houses need covering and new window shutters. Some of the houses, if they are recovered and repaired will last for years, but will not last long unless they are attended to pretty soon. The thanks of the Grand Jury are here? by tendered his Honor Hhe presiding [ Judge and tho Solicitor arid other officers of the Court for the kindness and cour tesy extended us and the assistance ren? dered ns in the discharge of our duty. Respectfully submitted, N. O. Fakmkr, Foreman. THE ATLANTA CONSTITUTION, In a long article relating to IheB. B.

It acted wonderfully on him, and by the time he had 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. 36 A Koto of Warning to Suffering Humani? ty. 'Wo feel that we would be wanting in the duty we owe to suffering humanity if wc did not sound a note of warning in regard to the use of Mercury and other poisonous minerals in the treatment of Blood and Skin Diseases: If the reader could see the horrible Buffering, the awful wrecks of human health and happiness, shown by our correspondence with those who have been dosed with these mineral poisons, he would shudder with horror. Arsenic, Mercury, Antimony, and Iodide of Potassium are some of the remedies most ordinarilj*-used for these diseases, and they are all POISON. Do no! take these poisons. They might dry up your disease for a few days, and with it you will have Mercurial Rheumatism, which may bring you' years of torture. The Mercury seems to sink into the bones, and the Potash drives the Poison into the system, only to lurk there and attack the tender organs of the body, as the Inngs, the throat, the nasal organs and stomach. Hundreds of people have beeu made deaf, and a great many blind, by the use of Mercury and Potash. Beware of Mercury and Potash Mixtures gotten up in imita? tion of our Specific. A few grains of sugar of lead dropped into a glass of these imitations will cause the poisonous drugs to fall to the bottom, and show the danger of using them. Swift's Specific is entirely vegetable, and is the best tonic for deli? cate ladies and children and old people in the world. Treatise on Blood and Skin Diseases mailed free.
