A small cyclone passed through the country near Mountain Creek Church last Friday afternoon. Its treck was about one-half mile wide.

Prof. Morrison, the Principal, has had considerable experi? ence in teaching, and has a reputation of being a fine educator. All who attend will no doubt feel that they have been fully repaid for their time, trouble and expense. -? .,'!)' ' ... ' .

Norrls, eldest daughter of Mr. J. Thompson Norrls, of Rock Mills Township, died on Thursday morn- I ing, 30th nit, of typhoid fever, after an illness c-f sixteen days. Miss Norrls was ! just in tho bloom of womanhood, being about 2;1 years of ago, and was highly es? teemed1 by a large circle of friends, who regret exceedingly her early demise. Her remains were interred in the gravo Sard at Roberts' Church on last Friday, lev. T. C. Ligon,conducting the funeral services, in the presence of a large con? course of friends and relatives. "There is going to be,such , a big crop iriade this Fall t-hat a. great, many pf our farmery will have to.buy a new wagon to market their : products in. Anticipating this, Messrs. Bleckley, Brown & Fretwell have bought a large number of the cele? brated Stridebaker Wagons, which jthey will sell at a Jrery.Jo.w price. In their ad? vertisement they have a number of testi I monials in reference to this wagon from reliable citizens who have used them. I This firm can also supply you with a sub? stantial buggy. Their stock of bagging < and ties is very large, and as they bought them cheap, they will sell them the same way. Read their advertisement carefully. Our City Council has taken a step in the I right direction in looking closely after the sanitary condition of the city. Noth? ing conduces more to hoalth than clean? liness, and nothing is more productive of sickness than filth; so it is necessary for the protection of those who do observe sanitary measures, that the careless and indifferent shall be made to do so as well. If a man sees fit by neglecting to keep his premises clean to invite fever or some other disease, and endanger his own life and the lives of his family, he can blame no one but himself; but he has no right by such negligence to endanger the lives of bis neighbors. We hope that the Council will not falter in its work of hav? ing the city, cleansed. Strict sanitary or? dinances strictly enforced, will do a great deal of good. Last Monday was the liveliest Salesday we have had since Spring. A large crowd was in town,'and horse swapping indulg? ed in considerable. The day was compar? atively quiet. One young man, who had imbibed too much "corn juice," created a little excitement as he started home. He rode down Whit tier street at full speed yelling at the top pf his voice. Alderman Fowler, who was standing in the street near his stable, made an attempt to stop the rider, and as be did so the latter cut him on the hau d with a knife. The young man rodo on yelling and cursing, but before he got beyond \he city limits he was arrested and brought back to the guard house: The- Mayor charged him only $23 for his little fun. Mr. David Sadler died at'his home in Corner Township last Sunday morning, sifter an illness of several weeks, aged about 70 years. Mr. Sadler was born and raised in Anderson County, and for the East forty years has resided on the plan ition where he died. He was a man of genial disposition, kind and charitable, and was upright and honest in all his dealings with his fellow-man.. For many years he has been a ruling Elder in Good Hope Presbyterian Church. His remains were interred at Roberts1 Church last Monday, Rey. R. C. Ligon conducting the funeral services. Ati aged wife and two children survive him. An earnest and consistent Christian, kind and affectionate husband and father, and a good and use? ful citizen has gone to his reward. Messrs. Sullivan. & Bro. have moved into their new quarters, next door to Messrs. Cray ton & Sons. We dropped in to see them Tuesday afternoon ana found their force busy arranging their goods and putting them in place. This firm has now one. of the handsomest storerooms in the city. The room has been arranged j especially for their business?hardware. They occupy both floors, which are con- j nected by both a stairway and elevator. The clever proprietors told us they in-1 tended in the future to carry a larger and more complete stock than they have kept heretofore. We would advise our read? era when thoy come to the city to visit Messrs. Sullivan & Bro. and see their new quarters. . The Atlanta Constitution, of last Sunday, in speaking of that popular Summer re? sort, Tallulah Falls, says: "Mis. C. H. Strickland, of Anderson, S. C, has be? come a bright, particular star in the gal? axy of beauty and wealtn at Young's hotel. She is quito young and the pos? sessor of a soprano voice of rare purity and expression, with which she has de? lighted the guests at the hotel. Mrs. Strickland is also a poetess of no mean order, and has .written some exquisite little verses; and besides all this, she paints beautifully in oil and water colors. On Wednesday evening a musical and literary entertainment was given in the parlors of Young's hotel. It consisted of recitations, fancy dances, readings, and vocal and instrumental music. Miss Annie Bleckley scored a decided hit in a song entitled 'Awfully Awful.' "* The Presbyterian Church last Monday evening was filled with a very large and intelligent audience, which had assembled to listen to Rev. H. F. Chritzberg's lec? ture on the subject of "License and Pro? hibition." Mayor Tolly introduced the speaker, who, for more than an hour, en? tertained his hearers with one of the strongest appeals for prohibition we have ever listened to. He handled the subject with "gloves off," clinching every point with an argument that could not be dis? puted. He criticised the present laws reg? ulating the sale of whiskey, and said that the responsibility of the whiskey curse rested not only on the shoulders of the dealers, but also on the people, who li? censed the saloons. The lecture through? out was interesting and full of facts, and doubtless made a deep impression on the mind of each one present. We took a jaunt over to Hart well, Ga., last Saturday and spent Sunday at the Camp Meeting near that beautiful town. Of course, the trip was a most pleasant one. No one can visit that country with? out enjoying himself. The people are so I clever and hospitable, the young ladies so charming and sociable, and a visitor fares so sumptuously, that one visit is bound to be followed by another. We had been there before. The attendance at the Camp Meeting on Sunday was very large, the people coming from all the surrounding counties and from Carolina, a number of young gentlemen being present from this city. It was the best behaved crowd we ever saw. The good behavior is attribut? able, no doubt, partly to the prohibition law, which is in force in that County. There were a number of able divines present, and we heard several fine ser j nions. Hart County is making rapid I strides forward. The no-fence law is be | ing agitated - by her citizens, and in all probability will be adopted. When this is done, she will progress more rapidly. The crop prospects throughout tho Coun? ty are very promising. During our so? journ we met many old acquaintances and formed many new ones. Of course, we met Brother McGill, of the Sun, who is as gonial and handsome as ever. Tho crops from the river to this city are very fine. Our trip did us good, and we shall go again wheu the opportunity presents itself. Survivors' Meeting. Mb. Editor : A call having been made through the Intelligencer for a meet? ing of Company F and Company G, 2nd S. C Rifles, to consider the propriety of a Reunion of said Companies at some time in the near future, a number of the survivors met last Monday for that pur? pose. On motion of Thos. M. White, Mai. D. L. Cox was called to the Chair and Win. M. McGnkin was requested to act as Sec? retary. The following resolutions wore offorcd and unanimously adopted: Resolved, That each survivor of said Companies is requested to meet at Ander? son on Thursday, 20th inst, for tho pur? pose of further completing their rolls, and transacting any other business that may come before tho meeting. Resolved, That we hereby cordially in? vite all the survivors of our Regiment to unito with us and make tho day one of enjoyment and pleasure. ? Resolved, That our County papers and the papers of adjoining Counties interest? ed in our Regiment be requested to pub? lish these proceedings. On motion, the meeting adjourned. Arrangements have been jnade by which all who attend our meeting can procure good meals at 25 cents each. Wm. M. McGuicik, Secretary. Union Meeting. Tho second meeting of tho Piedmont Union, No. 2, will bo held with tho Flat Rock Baptist Church, in Pickons County, commencing on Saturday before tho 5th Sabbath in August. A full attendance is desired, as business of importance is to be transacted. J. Jameson, Moderator. A Remarkable E?c?pe. Mrs. Mary A. Dailoy, of Tuukhannock, Pa., was afflicted for six years with Asth? ma and Bronchitis, during which time the best physicians could give no relief. Her lifr was despaired of. until in last October she procured a Bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery, when immediate relief was felt, and by continuing its use for a short time she was completely cured, gaining in iiosh 50 lbs. in u few months. Freo. Trial Bottles of this certain euro of all Throat and Lung Diseases at Hill Bros. Drug Store. Large Bottles ?1.00. Closing Exercises of .Miss Elbe ftelcTs School. Mr. Editor : A day of unrivalled beauty,, an assembly as representative and well-behaved as it was large, and a program filled to the, brim with entertain? ment, contributed to make the closing exercises of Miss Ellie Reid's school; at Generoste? Chdrch last Friday, a com? plete and .unequivocal success. The church building, in which a stage had been improvised, and which was taste? fully decorated on the interior, was crowded to its utmost capacity, when the exercises were opened at 9:30 o'clock with prayer by the. Rev. Calvin Pressly. The Bill of Fare for the day included a repertoire of 58 separate and distinct per? formances, and occupied more than two hours in its presentation. In it were ar? ranged in judicious and pleasing variety, charades, dialogues, recitations singly and in concert, extract speeches and essays, in the rendering ol which almost the entire school took. part. The essays of Misses Lula Sherard, Essie Bowie: Maggie Stevenson, Sallie Shdr?td and Mamie Pressly were read by proxy. No higher compliment could have boon Said to the excellent execution of every etail of the program than was expressed in the unbroken attention bestowed there? on by the large audience, comprising as it did, the patrons and friends of the school, with niauy visitors, who, while not per? sonally interested, could but remark tho evidences of careful and well directed effort on tho part of tho teacher in the promptness, faithfulness, and ease with which each Item was performed. A "Farewell Address" read by Miss Rcid formed the finale of the occasion, so far as regarded the elocutionary and dra? matic portions thereof. The next all-ab? sorbing and all-consuming topic was the consideration of a dinner ot immeasu? rable bountifulness and inexpressible toothsomeness" which bad been spread 'noath shading oaks. After an interval of an hour and a half, seats were removed to the grove surround? ing; the church and addresses were lis? tened to from Baxter Clinkscales and Pringle Cook, Esqrs. Mr. Cook was in? terrupted in the midst of his speech by a thunder shower, which; while it Was not "down on the bills" had the effect of rapidly and thoroughly dispersing the crowd. The calamity was intensified, in that it prevented the hearing of an address from Col. Jno. G. Clinkscales who was in attendance during the day. With the clearing away of the clouds came the breaking up of the crowd of pupils and friends, accompanied by mutual congratulations upon the success of the occasion, and expressions of praise for the young teacher who bad bad the Stluck to attempt such an exhibition and he ability to carry it to a successful issue. Miss Reid is from Due West, and has only had charge of the school for the past session. The.young America Cornet Band gathered unto themselves a host of friends for their kindness in furnishing music of the most superior quality and in the most liberal quantity throughout the occasion. _ T; E. H. Church Festival at Ebenerer. Mr. Editor : It was our good fortune tobe among the number that attended the Church Festival at Ebenezer last Friday. The occasion was a success in every sense of the word. Just before dinner was served the crowd assembled in the Church where the following topics of discussion were disposed of: "The Church?its temporal benefits," Opened by Geo. E. Prince, Esq., and participated in by Dr. C. V. Barnes and Col. B. F. Brown. ??Temper? ance?evils of intemperance, its remedies and prospects," opened by Mr. C. C Feathorston, followed by George E. Prince Esq., and Dr. C. V. Barnes. After this, the time was consumed by partaking of one of the most elegant din? ners it was ever our good fortune to handle, or at least to try to handle, and in having a good, social time generally. Several young ladies from a distance were present, among whom .we noticed Miss Fannie Hall of Florida, Miss Lou Breazeale from Greenville, Miss Sue Wat? son from Anderson, and Miss Emma Clinkscales from Belton. Taking it altogether, tho Church Festival at Ebe? nezer was a very pleasant affair, and we would advise anyone in search of a good dinner, a good time, or good looking young ladies, to try the Ebenezer com? munity before going to any other market. ? F. To the Teachers. We hope every teacher of a public school in Anderson County will attend the County Normal next week. Do uot forget that the Normal is for your special benefit. It will pay you and pay the community in which you teach. Be on hand at the opening session, if possible. Let the trustees be present, at least a part of the time, if they can. We hope to have present every teacher and as many of the patrons of public schools as feel an interest in the success of the schools. Let no teacher flatter himself that he knows enough about the art of teaching. Many men Know "very well what to teach, but do not know how to get about it. Tbero is much for us all to learn.

Some of our friends say: Mofkattsville, S. C, April 7th, 1885. Messrs Hill Bros.?Gentlemen: I used the American Fruit Preserving Powder and Liquid last year, and it is with much satis? faction I add my^estimony to its virtues. The fruit and vegetables I used it with are now in a perfect state of preservation witli natural taste and smell.

Messrs. Hill Bros.?Gentlemen: The American Fruit Preserving Powder and Liquid I bought from you last year, is all that yon recommended it to be.

CLINKSCALES, Assistant. -o THE Fall Session of this School begins SEPTEMBER 1st, 1885. The scholastic year is divided into two sessions of twenty weeks each, and extends {torn .September 1, 1885, to June 4, 188G, with c week's intermission at Christmas. The charges Will be $10.00, $14.00, $16.00 and $20.00 per session, according to the grade of studies pursued. All charges be? gin with the pupil's entrance into the Schoo!!, and continue to the close of that session, unless the pupil is prevented from attend ing by serious illness. A contingent fee of fifty cents per session will be re? quired, to cover incidentals. Payments most be made each half session in advance. This requirement will be absolutely necessary in order that the demands for Teacher's hire, advertising and rent of school property may be promptly met. Don't complain at this, since you well know that no business can be success? fully conducted on the uncertainty of a credi t basis, especially that of educating the young, which is of the first importance. Let the Teacher be assured of his pay, and it will act as a stimulus to good work. Regard it as a sacred duty to educate, and thus elevate your children, and for that purpose lay by from your earnings enough Board can be had with Col. Clinkscales in the Institution at $12.50 per month, pay? able monthly in advance. This includes all necessaries, except towels, washing and lights.
