Next Saturday being a legal holiday, the National Bank will be closed for the . flay.The Postoffice will also be closed, with the exception of an hour after the opening of each mail. The public should bear this in mind and govern themselves accordingly. Little Ray, the bright and Interesting infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Hatto, died at their residence in Williamston on last Friday, after a short illness, aged one year and four months. The bereaved parents have the sympathy of many friends and acquaintances in their loss. We made a very glaring mistake bist week in calling attention to Mr. L. H. Seel's advertisement. We stated that be bad secured the agency for the sale of the "Common Sense- Well Lifter," when it should have read "Common Sense Water Lifter." . A "well lifter'? wculd certainly be a curiosity. Mr. John B. Tucker, an energetic young farmer of Hopewell Township, was the first to send us a cotton bloom this season, it having bloomed on the 24th ult. Mr. W. F. Barr, of this city, also sent us one on, the same d-y. Since then we have received a dozen or more. Now who will present us with the first bale of cotton ? ' List of letters remaining in the Post office for the week ending July 2nd: Mrs. S. A. Brown, S. S. Bruce, Miss Lena Campbell, Mrs. George Campbell* Sobt. Crotcher, John Frost, Wm. Maxwell, Robt. Mercer, A. L. MoMahan, Ellen Proctor N.T. Ramsey, (2)Sellna Will? iams, R. M. Wilhams. Wo would direct the attention of our i readers to the advertisement of Messrs. Cunningham & Fowler, who are tho agents in this city for the sale of tho cele? brated Columbus vehicles. Persons who desire to purchase a buggy or phaeton should see this firm before purchasing. Their prices are very low. Rev. J. W. Daniel, who assisted Rev. J. W. W?lling in the series of meetings in the Methodist Church last week, has won the esteem and admiration of every one who had the pleasure of hearing him. Mr. Daniel is an earnest, forcible speaker, and his sermons were eloquent and full of beautiful thoughts. He is certainly a young man of fine talent, and is destined to rank among the most popular and prominent ministers of his denomination. The' change in tbe advertisement of Messrs. McCuily, Cathcart & Co. was handed in too late for insertion this week, but it will appear next woek. They de? sire tba public not to forget that they aro still agents for the celebrated Daniel Pratt Gin, Feeder and Condenser, which they.will sell at a very a low price and on reasonable terms. ; This gin nover fails to give satisfaction, and if any of our read? ers oontemplate buying a gin, we would ad vi so them to con for with Messrs. Mc? Cuily, Cathcart & Co. - Maj. Ellas McGee brought us a number W of cotton blooms on last Friday, running back for several days. Tho first bloom appeared on Monday, 22ud of Juno. All of thorn were taken from fields upou which the Generostee fortilizor, manufac? tured in Anderson, was used. Maj. McGee says that he used several kinds of fertilizer, but that no blooms have ap? peared on any other cotton than that un? der which ho nsed tho Generostee. This shows that the Anderson manufacturers make the bost of fertilizers. Hon. H". M. Prince, of Pelzor, sends us the following note, which explains itself: "In your report of our talk on crops, you make me say my Dent corn was in full tassel, when it should read in full silk, in order to give a just idea of its advanced condition, as all farmers know that sev? eral days elapso after tasseling before silk? ing. I now am able to say that it is in tbe 'roasting car' stage, with from two to five silks to the stalk. Fodder will have to be stripped by the 15th of July. Since har? vesting I have planted five acres of good stubble land in tho white Dent. Rain is still abundant; too much for cotton, as it tends to weed rather than fruit under such rapid growth. If agreeable I will give the results of my experiments with early and late planting of tho Dent corn to your readers. I have induced a good * many others to make tests of it on a Jbmall scale." Wo hope Mr. Prince will Bgivo us the result of his experiment, as ; r we know it will interest and, benefit our On last Monday evening the John Jack Comedy Company appeared in the Mason? ic Hall in this city for the first time, pro? ducing Falstaif. A small but apprecia? tive audience greeted the Company. On Tuesday evening the programme was very entertaining, consisting of iurces, reoita tions, songs, &c The leading actress is Miss Annie Firmln, who is certainly the brightest star that has ever appeared before our people. As a commedian, Mr. John Jack ranks very high. The Compa? ny is first-class, and, should it remain in Anderson another night we hope our peo? ple will be more liberal in their patronage. Last Tuesday morning Lizzie Pearman, colored, entered Mr. Z. Sharp's residence, while the family were in the back yard, and was in the act of breaking open a bureau drawer when she attracted the attention of Mrs. Sharpe. When the wo. man saw Mrs, Sharp, she ran, but was overtaken in the yard and detained until a policeman was sent for. She had secur? ed a purse containing a small sum of money. On Monday*; Mrs. Sayre's rosi dence, adjoining Rev. T..-F. Gadsden, was entered and a purse and some jewelry stolen. It is believed the same woman committed that crime also? At a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Savannah Valley Railroad Com? pany, held in this city last Thursday, the depot stations along the line were located as follows: Dean's, Vinegar Road Cross? ing, Lowndesville, Grave's, Hester's, Mt. Carmel, and Dr. Gibert's. At some of the points along the line the competition for locations was pretty active. The par? ties interested in tho locations aro required I to enter into bonds for the grading of the [ side track necessary and for the payment of the amount of money proposed by ! them in their bids, or to pay the same cash, and to convey to the Company by deed one acre of ground for depots and otheruse of the Company. The Compa? ny gets over and above the grading of the I side track and one acre of land, seven hundred dollars from the community at Dean's, four hundred from the Vinegar Road Crossing, five hundred from Dr. Gibert's, and three hundred each from the other locations. The laying of the track on tho Road is progressing rapidly, tho first train having already passed over a half milo or more of it Quito a number of changes are to occur this Fall in the business places of our merchants, prominent among which is the removal of the New York Cosh Storo from their present location to the handsome building owned and now occupied by Messrs. B. F. Cray ton & Sons, adjoining the National Bank. As will be seen by his big advertisement, Mr. M. B. Arn? stein proposes to close out the large stock of goods now on hand, and when we call? ed on him found him busily engaged with his efficient clerks marking down the prices and arranging goods for the "great removal sale." Mr. Arnstein believes it is profitable to get rid of goods when times are dull, but his main idea is to open his handsome new store this Fall with only fresh, desirable and fashionable goods?both np-stairs and down-stairs? and this proves his fine business tact and enterprise. "We bespeak for his new store, which is larger, more commodious and better adapted for tho proper display of his extended stock, an increased trade, and in wishing him all possible success that his efforts deserve, we would advise all to call at his present stand and take ad? vantage of the bargains offered. A Now Oil Mill Company. The stockholders of the Anderson Oil Mill and Fertilizer Manufactory met in the office of Drs. Nardin & Orr on last Monday afternoon, and organized by electing tho following officers: President?J. A. Brock. ?Secretary and Treasurer?B- Frank Maul din. Superintendent?J. H. Townsend. Directors?D. S. Maxwell, Dr. W. H. Nardin, J. E. Peoples, E. B. Murray, W. W. Humphreys and W. S. Ligon. The necessary building and other com? mittees were appointed, and the stock? holders adjourned. Tho time for obtain? ing the charter not having arrived, the organization effected on last Monday is only provisional, but it is understood that when the charter is obtained it will be continued. The Company will manu? facture cotton teed oil, cotton seed meal -and fertilizers of a high grade. The Company starts with flattering prospects, and we have no doubt that it will' prove beneficial alike to the community and to the stockholders. Sunday School Conference.

The Pioneer FJremen und The Yonng America Cornet Band Win the First Prizes at tho Grieuvllle Tournament? Their Reception at Homo. As was stated last week, about thirty of tbe Fioneer Firemen ^end the Young America Cornet Band, together with a number of ladies and gentlemen, left An derson on Tuesday afternoon, 23rd ult., in special cars attacked to the freight train, via Belton, for Greenville, to par? ticipate in and witness the Firemen's Tournament, which came off in that city on the 24th and 25th ult. At Belton the party met the special excursion train, .containing the Columbia Firemen and a large number of excursionists, and pro? ceeded to Greenville, arriving Ihere about 9 p. m. Tho visiting Firemen were met at the depot by the Greenville Firemeu, who escorted them to tho Armory of the Butler Guards, where refreshments were served and a general reunion held. The Colored glee club of this city nccompanied the Pioneers. This club and our "Boy Band" furnished music during the even? ing, and wore loudly applauded. At tbe conclusion of the reception tho Pioneers were marched to Gower <fc Rcil ly's Hall, where they were assigned quarters. Wednesday morning, at 9 o'clock, a grand parade took place, which was par? ticipated in by tbe Firemen and tbe Band. At 5 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon the reel contest occurred, the following teams entering: B. E. Lee, of Greenville, Spartan, of Spartanburg, Phoenix, of Co? lumbia, Independent, of Cha?otte, and the Pionoer, of Anderson. The rules re? quired the engines to be stationed at a certain place; teams to run 100 yards with reel and 200 feet of hose, attach to engine, uncouple, attach nozzle, and throw water 50 feet through 100 feet of hose. One runner was allowed to each 75 pounds of weight of reel and hose, besides the pipe man and plugman. The first team to run was the Indepen? dent, of Charlotte, followed by the R. E Lee team, of Greenville, and then the Spartan team, of Spartanburg. Tho Pio? neer team of Anderson followed next. In speaking of this contest, the Green? ville News says: Then came the daisies?the Pioneers of Anderson, sixteen in number with the handsomest captain on the ground, and every man walking like a race horse. Their reel weighed 1.130 pounds and they were dressed in white stockinet shirts and knee breeches and red stockings and caps. Captain O'Donnell placed his men carefully, looked them over with a steady and critical eye, gave a few last warnings and then the word to go. And they went like the wind, and went through with? out hitch, balk or bungle. There did not seem to be an instant of hesitation any? where and the team worked like clock work, making a faultless test and winning the applause of the crowd even before the figures appeared announcing the great time of 22J. The Anderson men were jubilant but they refrained from jubilating much as they contemplated the formidable team to follow them?the Phoenix, of Colum? bia, commanded by Capt. Pat Meehan who is in firemen's tournaments what Archer is on the turf?a veteran who knows the rules by heart and studies every foot of the ground and every mo? tion of his mon and can make winning where winning is. possible. He has a good team throughout, but it ran handi? capped with the heaviest reel in the con? test, weighing over 1,300 pounds, and two men short of the allowance. 150 pounds is not much on wheels distributed among twelve men, but it counts in a run of a hundred yards when it is a question of seconds and quarter seconds. Tho run, like that of Anderson, was beautifully done, but it fell a second and a quarter behind, the time allowed being 232 Then Anderson shouted sure enough. Captain O'Donnell was borne down the course on the shoulders of his team, the Anderson band struck up a strain of triumph, present and former citizens of Anderson joined in a storm of cheers and jubilantly shook hands with the team and each other and sent off tele? grams. The performance was really a re? markable one for a company organized last year and participating in its first tournament, and the men deserved the praise and congratulations showered on them from all sides. RECAPITULATION. Time. Pioneer of Anderson, lst l ??, prize, $50. j 224 Phoenix, of Columbia, 2d I ??, prize; $15, } *** Spartan, of Spartanburg, 29 R, E. Lee, Greenvillo, 291 Independent, of Charlotto, 0 This record makes the Pioneers the champions of the State. It was said by many Firemen at Greenvillo that it was the best time ever made in tho South. In the Tournament at Augusta recently, the best time mado was 22 seconds, but the hose was attached to a hydrant instead of an engine, which, it is said, makes con? siderable difforenco in securing water, the hydrants being quicker than the engines. Tho Pioneers did not tako their engine to Gieonville with them, as they did not intend entoring tho steamer contest. In tho reel contest they used the Spartau steamer, which was kindly tendered them by tho Spartans. The Pioneers aro very grateful to them for this courtesy, and will ever remember them with tho kind? est feelings. In the "grab" contest the Pioneers, like the Phcenix, of Columbia, by an accident, failed on the attachment to tho engine. In this contest the R. E. Lee, of Green? ville, won the first prize. On Wednesday evening the citizens of Greenville tendered a grand banquet to to the visiting firemen. The occasion was an exceedingly pleasant one, and was highly enjoyed by all present. On Thursday morning at 10 o'clock the Band contest occurred. The prize was $50. There woro three entries, as follows: Black's Station Brass Band, Taylor's Sta? tion Brass Band and the Young America Cornet Band of Anderson. The News, in speaking of this contest, says : The judges woro B. Wehrlo and W. D. Mnnson, of Greenville, and R. D. Sloan, of Piedmont, each an experienced musi? cian and a veteran performer in bands. The contestants each played three pieces, selected by themselves. They were judg? ed on timo, execution, harmony and ex? pression, and were marked by a maximum of 100 each. Tho maximum for each piece was, thoroforo, 400, and the total maximum for perfection, 1,200. Aftor the performance was over the crowd waited with much anxiety fur tho clocisiou. Many bolieved that the Black's Station band had won. but popular sympathy was with tho plucky little fellows from An? derson. When tho judges announced that the Young Americas had made 825 of a possible 1,200 and taken the prize, the applause was vociferous and very enthusiastic, and the appropriate repre? sentatives of Young America were the Hons and heroes of the hour, and had congratulations showered on them. Pop? ular sympathy seemed to veer around, howover, iu favor of tho Black's Station baud, aud there was a general feeling that the judges had been govornod moro by their sympathies than by their judgment in making up their report. This matter was investigated by a representative of tho News. The judges are conscientious and capable gentlemen with no imagina? bly reason for bias, and they declare dis? tinctly that they made their allowances only on tho unanimous agreement of their judgment. When the result of the Band contest was announced, tho Andersoniana say they never saw such an enthusiastic crowd of spectators. The stand on which the Young America? rendered their mu? sic was picked up by the crowd, while tho boys we're playing, and carried down tho stroet for a hundred yards or more. Of course the Andersoniana felt happy over the result. Owing to the feet that the telegraph wire was down between Anderson and Greenville, the news of tho Pioneers' vie* tory did not rea?h Anderson ?ntil about 11 a. na. Thursday, and early in tho after* noon another telegram was received an? nouncing the victory of the Young America Cornet Band. When tho news was received a shout went up from many voices on the streets, and it was at once suggested that a recep? tion be tendered the Pioneers and the Band upon their arrival at home. An in? formal meeting of a number of citizens was immediately held at Messrs. Crayton & Son's store to take the necessary steps to this end. It was soon ascertained that tho special train would not arrive here until about 11 p. in., and it was decided , to postpone the reception until Friday afternonn. Committees were appointed, and they immediately went to work ar? ranging for the reception. A committee, ! of which Mr. B. Frank Mauldin was , chairman, was also appointed to be at tho depot that night on tho arrival of the train and welcome tho successful victors home. Notwithstanding tho lato hour, a largo Crowd of citizens" accompanied the com? mittee to tho depot. The train rolled in about 11 o'clock, imd when the excur? sionist* vacated the cars, yell after yell wont up from the crowd. As soon as quiet was rostored, Mr. Mauldin, in behalf of the city, in a few appropriate re? marks, cordially welcomed the Pioneers and the Band back home, and told them that the citizens were arranging a recep? tion for them on the following afternoon. the PARADE and reception. On Friday afternoon a number of ladies repaired to the engine house, and beauti? fully decorated the engine with Bweet flowers. Shortly after 6 o'clock the Pio? neers, with their engine, formed in pro? cession, andj headed by the Yonng Amer? ica Cornet Band and the committee of arrangements, marched through several streets, and finally halted on the Court House Square. In the procession were two banners, which had been prepared by Mr. Irvine Twitty. On one was a large rooster, with this incription: "We got thor in 22i." On one side of the other appeared this inscription: "18 Daises?Put your foot on them if you can catch them." On the other Bide was written: "The Young Americas are little, but they blow their own horns." When the column halted Dr. R. F. Divver stepped forward, and in an enthu? siastic speech, presented the Pioneer team with a beautiful wreath of flowers from Mrs R. M. McDonald, of Greenville. Mr. A. W.Todd, in behalf of the Pioneers, received the wreath, and responded in ap? propriate remarks, saying the team highly appreciated the token, and would enclose it in a neat glass case and hang it in their hall, whero it would ever appear as a pleasant memento of their trip to Greenville. The wreath was an exceed? ingly beautiful one. Attached to it was a miniature broom, which sig? nified the sweeping victory of the Pioneers. Maj. E. B. Murray, Mayor Tolly and Dr. S. M. Orr then, in a pleasing manner, addressed the Pioneers and the Band, aftor which the Firemen, with a number of invited guosts, repaired to the Armory, of tho Palmetto Riflemen, where tho ban? quet was hold. By invitation, the Young America Cornet Bund repaired to the hospitable home of Hon. D. S. Max? well, where they were served with deli? cious rofreshments. From Mr, Maxwell's tho Band went to the Armory. A long table was spread in the Armory, aud on it a sumptuous repast was served. The committee of arrangements wore very attentive, and everyone present was served in the most hospitable and abun? dant manner. Theso delicacies being dis? posed of, toasts were next in order. The following toasts were offered and responded to by the gentlemen named: Maj. E. B, Murray: "The Pioneer Fire Company?victorious in their first con? test, may their triumph here be an earnest of still greater achievements in store for them." Responded to by Chief J. M. Cathcart. Capt. P. K. McCnlly: "The Successful Team?The victory they have won may sorve as a stepping stono to greater ones in the future" Responded to by Capt. Frank O'Don nell. Mr. J. L. Tribblc: "The Friends of the Fire Department?True to your convic? tions, you have stood by the Fire Depart? ment of Anderson in its darkest hours of discouragement, and now that laurels of victory crown our 'Pioneers,' while ro joicing with thorn over encourage them in their laudable but arduous work." Responded to by Mayor G. F. Tolly. Mr. J. M. Sullivan: "Tho Engineers of the Pioneer Fire Company?Health, hon? or, happiness and continued usefulness to the gallant engineers." Responded to by Dr. R. F. Divver. Capt. J. E. Allen: "City Coudcilof An? derson." Responded to by Mr. B. Frank Maul? din. Gen. W. W. Humphreys: "The Young America Cornet Band?Infants in years, their skill is marvelous, their peformance phenomenal, may they receive that en? couragement which their efforts so richly merit." Responded to by Col. J. W. Trow bridge. Mr. B. Frank Mauldin: "The Press Sentinels upon the watchtowers of our country, tho power that checks corruption and the handmaid of Christianity in ad? vancing civilization." Responded to by Maj. A. S. Todd. A number of gentlemen were called upon for impromptu speeches, and nearly all of thorn responded in appropriate re? marks. At intervals during the ovening the Young America Band rondorod sweet music. The crowd dispersed about 10 o'clock, the ovening having been groatly enjoyed by all present. Indeed, we do not re? member to have attended a more pleas? ant occasion in Anderson, and it will not soon be forgotten by those present. The Pioneers speak in the highest terms of their treatment and the manner in which they were eutertained by the gal? lant Firemen and the hospitablo citizens of the Mountain City. Nothing occurred to mar the pleasures of the Tournament, which will ever bo remembered with the most pleasant momories. Anderson has every reason to be proud of her Fire Department, and moro so now than ever. Boing the youngest in tho State, it is a little remarkablo tint it has tho champion rocl team. They won tho championship fairly and honorably, amid groat disadvantages, and henco desorvod tho domonatration which was mado over them upon their return to the city. Ice ! Ice ! Ice !
