Abbeville County, met with a painful ac?
cident, the latter, it is feared, being fatally
hurt. They were riding together in a
buggy," when their mule became fright?
ened and ran away, throwing both of
them out.
It is a good idea now while farmers
have comparatively some idle time for
them to go around among their neighbors
and compare the system of conducting
Jrour farm with theirs. There, is much to
earn by such comparison which will ben?
efit any farmer. It will develop new
ideas and show you where you can make
improvements on your past management.
On the first page of the Intelligencer
an advertisement of Wilhite's Eye Water
appears. Read it carefully. As sore eyes
are prevalent throughout the County just
now, we advise those afllicted. with the
disease to give this medicine a trial.
Messrs. Wilhite & Wilhite guarantee it to
cure every case. Tho writer has seen the
medicine tried, and knows it will do
everything claimed for it.
Last Thursday morning Mr.-Smith
and . Mrs. Anna Darricott were coming
to the city in a buggy, and when nearly
opposite Mr. E. A. Bell's:residence, on the
Pendleton road, the mule that they were
driving made a sudden jump, throwing
Mr. Smith out and painfully bruising his
face. The mule started, off at a rapid
pace, with Mrs. Darricott in the buggy
and the lines dragging on the ground.
She concluded to jump from the buggy,
and in doing so met with a serious acci?
dent, breaking both bones of her left leg
at the ankle joint. The mule was stopp?
ed a short distance down the road. Mrs.
Darricott was brought to the city, where
she was attended by Dr. P. A. Wilhite.
The pio nie at Mountain Creek on last
Saturday was a most pleasant affair, and
congregated several hundred ladies and
gentlemen. In the morning interesting
and instructive Sabbath School addresses
were delivered by Col. E. M. Rncker and
Rev. Mike McGee, after which the chair?
man of the committee of arrangements,
Mr. J. L. Glenn, announced that there
would be a recess of one hour for dinner,
which had been most abundantly prepar?
ed and was most sumptuously served.
After dinner the meeting was again called
to order by Mr. Glenn, and speeches upon
the subject of prohibition were made by
Messrs. L. P. Smith and E. B. Murray for
and Col. E. M. Rucker against prohibition.
At the conclusion of the discussion a vote
on the subject was taken and every person
in the house, with perhaps three or four
exceptions, voted in favor of prohibition.
There were noue who voted against it.
It is with deep regret that we chronicle
the death of Miss Carrie M. McFall, the
interesting and accomplished daughter of
Mr. W. A. McFall, of Varennes Town?
ship, in this County, which occurred on
Tuesday morning at the residence of Mr.
Jas. W. Finley, in Greenvilla, where she
was visiting friends. She had been sick
but seventeen days with typhoid fever.
Miss McFall was 18 years of age, and
possessed a most amiable disposition and
a cultured mind. She was a member of
the Presbyterian Church in Greenville,
with which she united last year while a
student at College in that city. The tid?
ings of her death will carry sadness and
sorrow to many relatives and admiring
friends. Her romains were brought to
Anderson and interred in Jthe Presbyte?
rian Cemetery, after appropriate funeral
services conducted by Rov. D. E. Frier
son, D. D., on Wednesday morning, in
the presence of a large concourse of the
friends and acquaintances of the deceased.
Be union of Company F.
The reunion of Company F, 24th Regi?
ments. C. V., according to announcement,
held their first re-union since the war at
Moffettsville, in Corner Township, on
Wednesday, 12th in?t. The day was all
that could be desired, despite the fact that
Old Sol's rays were felt very perceptibly.
The fact that this Company was raised
entire! v in that section made the people
feel a deeper interest in the occasion, and
nothing was left undone that would tend
to the comfort and pleasure of the veter?
ans, thirty-seven of whom, with their old
Colonel, were present. The crowd iu at?
tendance was variously estimated at from
600 to 1,000 persons. A neat stand had
been erected for the accommodation of
the speakers and numerous seats provid?
ed for the audience.
When the hour for the addresses to be
delivered arrived, the survivors of the
Company were formed in line, and, under
command of Capt. C. S. Beaty, marched
to the stand. Sergt. J. W. Sherard carry?
ing the battle-flag of the 24th Regimentat
the head of tho Company.
Addresses were delivered by Maj. John
B. Moore, Messrs. R. P. Clinkscales and
A. J. Watt, and Gen. Ellison Capers.
These addresses were very interesting,
and were highly appreciated by all pres?
ent.
After the addresses a bountiful and
most sumptuous dinner was spread, which
every one enjoyed most heartily. After
dinner, the survivors of Company F,
spent the afternoon in carefully revising
the roll, Gen. Capers calling tho name of
every man on the list, and making a record
of the date of his mustering into service,
his wounds, death, or other features of his
record.
Tho Company went into service iu Jan?
uary, 18G2, with over one hundred names
on its roll, and from that tiuie on to the
surrender one hundred aud sixty-fi vo men
served in its ranks. Of these sixty-eight
were killed in battle, mortally wounded,
or died of disease during tho war; thirty
survived their wounds; thirteen have
died since tho war, and fifty-four are still
living. Of the latter some twelve or four?
teen have removed from the County or
State, and tho rest are living in the Coun?
ty. Thero are few names on the roll op?
posite to which there is not tho record of
a wound. Tho gathering together of these
facts doubtless brought hack to tho mind
of each survivor present many pleasant,
as well as sad, incidents. A resolution
was adopted requesting Gen. Capers to
furnish tho Intelligencer and Journal
with a copy of tho revised roll, with a
request to publish the same.
Tho re-union of Company F will long
be remembered b3* those who were pres?
ent, while to the survivors of the Compa?
ny the occasion was one or intense pleas?
ure. These reunions of old comrades
bring up the trials and dangers through
which they have passod and tho seuse of
duty dono, filling the mind with tho most
satisfying emotions.
Tho prcKcnco of Geri. Capers, iu whom
there beats no nobler or more patriotic
heart, was vory gratifying to tho survi?
vors. Ho coinmandod tho 24th Regiment
for a long time, and tho interest ho maui
festod in the reunion evinced the fact that
he had not lost any of his old patriotic
zeal, nor had he forgotten what a gallant
band of followers ho had in the great
struggle. His speech is very highly com?
plimented by all who heard it. We re?
gret that we have been unable to obtain a
report or synopsis of tho speech for publi?
cation.

The County Normal.
The Teachers' Normal Institute for this
County closed its session last Saturday.
The exercises throughout the week were
attended by a large crowd of interested
spectators, who, together with the teacher
pupils, seemed to deeply regret that the
exercises could not be prolonged several
weeks. Indeed, the only objection we
have heard urged against the Normal was
that its session was not long enough.
Our worthy School Commissioner will
know better next time how to please the
teachers. As this was the first Normal
we have ever had in the County, it was
more of an experiment than anything
else. It was a success, and the benefits to
be derived from it cannot be foretold. The
Eractical knowledge and new ideas gained
y those teachers in attendance will be
perceived in the improvement and rapid
advancement of the pupils under their
charge for years to come. Those teachers
in the County who did not attend missed
a most excellent opportunity for self
improvement.
We again extend our congratulations to
Col. Clinkscales for the success that has
crowned his efforts. His zeal and interest
in the educational cause increases every
day, and now that he has made a success
of the first Normal, we know he will
arrange to have one every Summer as
long as he remains in office.
On Friday afternoon the City Council
extended an invitation to the officers of
the Institute to take a drive over the city,
The invitation was accepted, and that
afternoon several carriages were in readi?
ness, and the officers enjoyed a delightful
drive, in charge of Mayor Tolly and
Aldermen Fant, Farmer and Mauldin.
The same afternoon a large number of
the teachers who had been in attendance
upon the Institute met and passed |the
following resolutions: ?
Resolved, That the thanks of tho Teach?
ers' Institute are hereby tendered to our
respected and worthy Commissioner, Col.
J. 6. Clinkscales, for his arduous endeav?
ors in behalf of the Teachers of the Coun?
ty, and for the unmeasured success with
which he has met.
Resolved, That we highly appreciate the
earnest labors of our obliging and effi?
cient Teachers?Prof. Morrison. Dr. Lan?
der and Miss MoCants; and that their
services will ever be held in kind remem?
brance by us.
Resolved, That in token of our apprecia?
tion of the work done here, we insist on
a two weeks session next Summer.
Resolved, That we hereby thank Maj.
Jos. VanHolt Nash, Atlanta, General
Southern Agent for D. Appleton & Co.,
N. Y., for the Teachers' Note Books
which he kindly gave the members of the
Institute.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolu?
tions be printed in the Anderson papers,
the Seminary Leaflet and the Naiad.
Roberts' Improved Cotton.
Last Monday morning we had tho
pleasure of visiting the farm of Mr. Jas.
H. Roberts, about two and one-half miles
West of the city. Mr. Roberts bought
this plantation, which contains 108 acres,
a few years ago. Every one who knew
the place considered the land almost
worthless, as It was about worn out and
had . merous deep gullies running in
almost every direction. By judicious
management and a liberal use of fertil?
izers,be has succeeded in getting the land
np to a good state of cultivation, and to?
day has as fine a crop of corn and cotton
on it as is generally seen in this country.
The main object of our visit, however,
was to see Mr. Roberts' cotton crop.
Three or four years ago Mr. Roberts and
his father were walking over one of his
cotton fields, when they noticed a fine
stalk with unusually large bolls on it
They were so favorably impressed with
the appearance of the stalk, that they con?
cluded to keep its seed separate from the
rest. This was done, and next season
Mr. Roberts planted a row of considera?
ble length with these seed. At the same
time he planted three other popular va?
rieties in as many rows along the sido of
it, putting in considerable fertilizer and
using the same amount under each.
When this commenced to mature, he in?
duced several prominent farmers to look
at it. They at once noticed the difference
between his cotton and the other three
varieties, and gave it the name of "Rob?
erts' Improved." Mr. Roberts had many
applications for the seed, and last year
sold his entire crop at from $1.50 to $2.00
per bushel. He has twelve or fifteen
acres in this cotton this year, and good
judges say if the seasons continue favor?
able he will average a bale to the acre,
some of it yielding a bale and a half. It
is undoubtedly the best cotton we have
ever seen growing in this County. In
one field we picked out an average stalk
and counted ninety bolls on it, besides
the squares wod blooms. Nearly all the
stalks have four and five limbs almost as
large as the stalk itself. These limbs are
fruited right out to the end, and the bolls
on an average are as large as hen eggs, the
majority of them containing five locks
each.
In one field Mr. Roberts has made a
very fair test of his seed with the Peter
kin variety. Side by side he has planted
two rows of his cotton and two of the
Peterkin variety, putting the same
amount of fertilizer under each and giv?
ing both the same attention. The most
careless observer can go into that field to?
day and tell at a glance that Roberts' Im?
proved is the best cotton. On some land
in this County we have no doubt that this
cotton would yield two bales to the acre.
Mr. Roberts is a progressive young far?
mer, and we venture that at no distant
day his seed will be a very popular varie?
ty all over the South. It will repay any
one to go out to his farm and see his pres?
ent crop._
