could drive her anywhere with safety.

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.

It acted wonderfully on him, and by the

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.

specialties of things in their season. Wc are now making a big run on?
GARDEN SEEDS,

Johnson, Robbins & Co.'s Seeds, and wc are now ready to sell cither whole?
sale or retail to any who may favor us with a call.
All we ask Is, that you come in and see for yourselves, and if we can?
not make it to your interest, why we won't ask you to buy. We ask no?
body to patronize us unless we can make it plain to them that they will be
the gainer by it. If you havn't tried us already yourself, ask some of your
neighbors who have, and hear what they have to say about the way we
treated them.
Besides Garden Seeds, we of course keep EVERYTHING in the DRUG
LINE, except Coffins, Whiskey and Tomhstones.
