Fa ig the piazza were arranged a number of de airs and benches, which were occupied th r the audience. The yard and Jpiazza 3re brilliantly illuminated, and presont a beautiful scene, *n At an early hour a largo crowd of the ?* ends and patrons of the school were an esent, and the exercises were opened ^c th prayer by Rev.

On Tuesday afternoon we made an in leclion ol tbo two new houses which x. John E. Pooples has recently erected 1 old West Boundary street. Tbeso )uses are very conveniently arranged, e two stories high, with large front and ar piazzas, and contain six largo rooms ich. The houses arc being finished in mdsomo style, and arc very desirable sidences, being situated in one of tho jst portions of the city. Mr. Peoples in rmcd us that ho had not yot rented tern, but wo predict thej' will not romain icant long. When we look hack five or x years ago, and compare tho appcar ice of this immediate portion of tho city ith its appearance now, wo can hardly alize that we are in Andoison. With c completion of the two houses referred above, they make six dwellings that *ve been built there by Mr. Peoples in iat length of time, besides live houses of ;o rooms near the foot of tho hill. There is not a single individual in An )rson who has done more lo build up ir city than John E. Peoplos. Full of lergy, vim and push, he is always ready lend a helping baud to any enterprise osperous and growing city. If we had lozen such men, Anderson would dou : its business, its population and its cable property in less than livo year?, r. Peoples invests his capital where it t only benefits himself, but also in jases the prosperity of our city and Its cable property. (Ys a now- street has been opened be cen Messrs. J. D. Maxwell's aud J. L. rmor's residences, tho street now lown as West Boundary should be anged, and w8 suggest that the City uncil call it Peoples street, as a recog Aon of his energy, public spirit and en ?prise, which have already done so uch for Anderson. The State Sunday School Convention. The Executive Committee of the State nday School Convention, (inter-de minational,) met in Columbia on inrsday, May 14th, and fixed upon igust 18th and 20th, as the time for lding the State Convention in that y. The Committee, in its call for the nvention, says; The Committees that are already organ id are requested to bold their County inventions as soon as practicable and set delegates to the State Convention. . those Counties where no County organ ttion exists, the County Secretaries ap inted by the State Convention are ged to call a Convention at as early a to as possible, that a County organiza tn may be effected. If the County Sec ;aries do not issue a call within a reason lo time, the Executive Committee asks : correspondence with any Sunday hool workers, and will aid in every ssible way in effecting County organi tions. The Executive Committee are it empowered to fix the number of del? ates from the Counties, but would sug st the same number as each County is .titled to in both houses of the State jgislature. The call is urgent. A com? ets State and County organization is eatly needed. No worthier cause is esented to earnest Christian workers, ir State, with so large a proportion of ir people communicants in the various nominations, cannot afford to be behind this work, which is engaging the best brts of the best people of the church erywhere. An attractive programme for the ap oaching State Convention has beon ar nged, and no effort will be spared to ako the occasion a great success. Ar ngcaents for the accommodation of ilegates on the railroads and while in e city will be made and published iu le time. Anderson County has no inter-denom ational organization, and we hope some our Sunday School workers will make effort to perfect one at once. Our iunty should be represented in the ate Convention.

I ?ied various remedies and was treated ith Iodide of Potash, which produced leumatism. My feet and legs were reatly swollen, so that I could not walk, .bout one year ago I was induced to try wift's Specific, which soon removed the ?ouble in my limbs, and my rheumatism i now entirely gone and my Cancer is ?adily improving, being better now than fc any time within two years.
