There wcro four bales of n< "cotton brought to Anderson last Tuesd being the first offered -for Hale here is sea ?son. . Messrs.

The services i^ntirrue ' Until tZ o'clock nearly everyr?nieh"t,' and some nights until 2 o'clock. The" loud Bhout ing, singing and preaching Is getting to be a nuisance to the people who reside in that portion of the city. Our colored friends should remember that the Lord is not deaf, and that He will answer their petitions an readily and willingly if de uyered, in-a low tone. . If they Insist on JSepihg up their loud singing, shouting and preaching after 10 o'clock, they shoula move their churches into swamps where nothing but bats and owls would be disturbed.... We invite the attention of our readers to the advertisement of Mr. R. M. McDonald; of Greenville, in this issue. The Presses which he is advertising for sale arc spoken of very highly. The ? Greenville Enterprise and Mountaineer has this to say about them: "The 'Beasley Power Press' is as complete a machine as we ever saw of the kind. After- the cot? ton, hay or arxytbibg. of the kind, is put "in, the press is started,-.when", you, can leave it and go about your other work. It throws itself out of gear as soon as the bale is packed, a small bell being attached <&r/,tbe purpose of giving the alarm and telling the operatives when it is through. tThe press -is driven* by one j belt! 'The pressure is'made by screws, and the press will seldom get out of order. He has also 'Ball's Hand Press.' This press.. iB oper? ated, by screws, ahd Is Compact, strong and durable. The box opens all around .and inakeftit easy of access. It would take ?i column of our space to describe 'these presses definitely. All those wish? ing power or hand presses, ought to ex? amine for themselves before buying, and ir-they do not think his the best don't buy ;it.f He has already sold several iu this Cobnty. ' Last Friday night Coroner Nance. held an inquest oyer the remains of a three ,year-old colored. child, which had been found dead that day in Hurricane Creek, on the plantation of Mrs. Violet Harper, : in Pendleton Township. After hearing ;ihe evidence, tbe. jury of inquest, which was composed of eight white and four -'colored men, were unanimous in render? ing a verdicts that the child came to its death from drowning at the hands of its mother, Bhetta Butler, who has been committed, to Jail to await her trial. The evidence against the woman is purely ^circumstantial.. The place where the '?? child was found js.about a ialf naHe-from the house, and on the banks of the st ream were fresh-made tracks that fit the wo? man's feet: Since the rendition of the verdict it has been discovered, that the* tracks which wore regaided asrthe wo? man's were made by a"negjro;bc*y who was fishing on the stream. The tracks.of, the child, unaccompanied by any other: . tracks, were found crossings the", creek, a short distance below, and on the opposite side of the stream its tracks alone again were found leading into the hole in which the remains were found.. From these' facts it is thought the innocence of the woman is clearly established. '. . " An Old Paper. A friend has sent us a copy of the Gatesville (Tex.) Advance, in which we find the following editorial marked: ? "The Advance has a copy of 'Miller's. Weekly Messenger,' a paper published at Pendleton, S. C. The copy before us was prinled September 23, 1808. The type is of the old style in which Tsr are used for Vs.' :? The paper is now the property of Mr. Geo. K. Green, of Gatesville, and was addressed by the editor to Mr. Green's grandfather, 'Mr. John Green.' On the second page it is stated that 'the mail from Washington bad not arrived when this paper was put to press.' There are some nice pieces of poetry in tho paper .and news from all quarters. One of the 'maxims' it publishes might be a good thing for Gatesville people to practice. It h as follows: 'Bo very cautious of believing ill of your neighbor; but more cautious in relating it.' In its 'average price current' the following prices are given: Coffee, 70, tosSO cents per lb.; cotton, long, $1 per lb.; short, 74 cents;' rice, 75 cents; sugar, white, 43 cents; brown sugar S3; tobacco, 45 cents.? Alto? gether, the Messenger is a unique relic, and was doubtless not without influence in its time.. There are no saloon or skating rink advertisements in it, nor is there any quarrel with its contemporaries about its special telegraphic service." Reunion of Companies F and O, 2nd S. C. Rifles. The reunion of these two Companies in this city last Thursday was not as largely attended as was anticipated, there being only' fourteen survivors of Company F and ton of Company G present. The oc? casion, however, was none the less enjoy? able, as a uumber of the survivors pres? ent had not seen each other since the sur? render. The main object of the reunion was for the purpose of perfecting a correct roll of each Company, so that a record.of the Companies could bo placed on rile in tin*. Adjutant General's oificoat Columbia. . At 11 o'clock the Kiirvivors met iu a hall in the Benson House, where two Imuisur more were spout moat .pleasantly in. per? fecting tho rolls and talking over camp life. AH ' record of Company F was lost at Farmville, Va., in April, BSCS', conse? quently the roll had to be made up from memory. Mr. Sam'l . Agncw, of Due West, who was the Orderly Sergeant of the Company at the surrender, was pres? ent, and had with him a roll that ho had made-out .from memory. He read the roll, and, with the assistance of his old comrades, succeeded in getting a correct roll of-the.Company. The Company en? tered the war with 133 members. Of this number, 24 werokilled iu battle, 27 died in the army, G were lost in the army, and ll^have dieasince war, leaving 65 survi? vors,^ offwhom are known to have left ttoeSlate,' rind arejscattered from North Carolina to Texas. Mr. Polk Cox, who was the 1st Ser? geant of Company G at the surrender, ,stated to the survivors of that Company that ho had from memory made out and. fbrworded to.tbe Adjutant General a roll -of his Company some time ago,' and that 'b-e did. Jiot have a copy of it with him. His.old comrades,' however, gave him 'some additional information, which he will add to the record already filed. At 1 o'clock the survivors and the rep? resentatives of the local press repaired to the dining room of the Benson House, where a sumptuous dinner was served. ?Mr. White is a sarvivor of Company F, and of course 'knew how to cater to the appetites of his old comrades, who did full justice to the meal. After dinner tho survivors again met. Capt. P. K. Norris was called to the chair and Mr. Wtn. McGukin requested to act Tis Secretary; On iliotion, a committee of four?two from .each Company?was ap? pointed to arrange the time and place of tho next, reudion.' The committee con? sists of the following gentlemen :. Compa? ny G?A. A. Dean and P. G. Acker; Company F?Sam'l Agnew and Wm. Mc? Gukin. Tho committee was instructed to select a fifth man to act with them as chairman. Capt. P. K. Norris was select? ed. After adopting a resolution of thanks to Mr. White for the use of the Hall, tho survivors adjournod. The survivors of Compauy F'decided to have tho roll of their Company printed in pamphlet form, so that each one could have a copy of it. Each ono present con? tributed a small sum for this purpose. The roll is now in the hands of tho print? er, and will be roady for delivery in a few days. ' Sandy Sprlo?? Camp Mooting.

News Items From William a ton. Messrs. J. D. Sitton and John Long, of Brushy Creek Township, came to this place Monday on their way to Abbeville, whither they were conveying the negro Butler Jones, who killed Moses Boyd, in Abbeville County in the latter part of July* last, and for whose apprehension and delivery to the Sheriff of that County Governor Thompson had offered a reward of $150. When Mr. Sitton, together with some friends, read tbe Governor's procla? mation, as published in last week's issue of the Intelligencer he at once recog? nized, in the description of the murderer therein given, a negro tramp, who had come to the neighborhood some three weeks before and who had since been working as a farm laborer. Without further delay, he secured assistance, went to the farm of Mr. John Smith, where the negro was, arrested him, and had the satisfaction of receiving from his Bps a fuB and free confession of the deed of which he was accused. Jones betrayed Sreat excitement when first arrested, but is demeanor afterwards became cool and oolleoted, aud he conversed of the tragedy with seeming relish.' He claims to have acted in self-defence in the killing of -Boyd, between whom and himself, an old /end was in existence. Mr. Sitton con? veyed his prisoner to Abbeville by Mon? day's train, and expects to claim the proffered reward. The protracted meeting which has been in progress at Shady Grove Baptist Church; for the past two weeks, closed on Monday, when the ordinance of baptism was administered to the converts -gained during, the meeting.

The Cedar Grove and Smith Chapel Sunday Schools of this Township, and the Presbyterian school of this place, held a joint celebration and pic nie at Cedar Grove Church last Saturday, tho 15th inst, and the subscriber was request? ed by Mr. J. A. Hatcher, the efficient Superintendent of the Cedar Grove School, to send you somo account of it. Several hundred persons wero present and the occasion was one of much pleas uro and profit. The oxercisos were opened with reading from tho Scriptures by Mr. T. J. Browning, and prayer by Mr. J. A. Hatcher. Tho foronoon was devoted to singing on tho part of tho schools, and to tho reading of essays by members of tho Cedar Grovo School. Addresses wero also made by Mr. George Hand, of the Cedar Grove school, by the Rev. \V. A. Hodges and by Geo. E. Princo, Esq. Then came a very important part of the oxercisos of the day, the hearty sampling of the choice viands brought out and spread by the good women of the community. This, with watermelon dossert, erelong satisfied the desires of tho inner man, and the crowd repaired to the stand, where after prayer by Rev. W. A. Hodge? an address was delivered by the Hon. H. G. Scudday. For an hour and eight minutes he held the undivided attention of tho audience while he delivered a most chaste, timely and powerful speech. In characterizing Mr. Scudday's address as a grand, elo? quent and successful ofibrt, the writer would not be understood as bestowing fulsome praise, or as disparaging the ad? dresses of the other gentlemen. Mr. Scudday was followod by Mr. Prince in nnother address of point and force. Mr. Princo is a pleasing speaker and a most enthusiastic Sunday School worker, con amore. The exercises closed hore, and the peo? ple dispersed to their homes mentally rc Sretting, no doubt, that those occasions o not come offener. $ Mr. C. F.
