The Centennial Exhibition of the Ag? ricultural Society of South Carolina be? gins in Charleston on the 23rd inst., and promises to be one of the most successful exhibitions ever held thoro. A goodly number of our people are anticipating a visit to Charleston during the Exhibition. As yot no excursion rates have been an? nounced by the railroads, but we presume there will be in a few days. If the rates on all the roads are low, Charleston will be visited by thousands of people during tbc next thirty days.

"Why are we like angel's visits?" said a pretty girl on a sofa to a bashful lover, who was sitting lonesomely on a chair at the other side of the room. "Really," he stammered and blushed, "I must give it up. Why are we?" "Because," she re gfiod significantly, "we are few and far etween." He destroyed the similarity almost instantly. - Mr.F.

Mr% Murphy, however, will remain in our midst and engage in other business. The Greenville News, of the 5th inst., says: "MissElzie Peoples, of Anderson County, was married on yesterday in this city at the residence of her uncle, Sheriff P. D.

Mr. Joel Kay, of Honea Path Town ship, met with an unfortunate accident last Saturday. He was in the act of ar? ranging the belt on the wheel of the gin, when the engine started and his right hand was caught and carried around be? tween the belt and the wheel. His hand was painfully bruised and mashed. We hope he will soon recover from it. Col.

Mr..J; L.;Fant, was-shot at four times, last Tuesday evening, about 7 o'clock, by a negro named Frank Gaillard. Mr. Fant lives about one and half miles south of the Court House, and Gaillard lives a half mile further down the road. ? On Monday Gaillard was given some mail to carry to Mr. Fant, but he did not deliver it. On Tuesday evening Mr.-Fant went to GaiUaird's house, and, after.calling him, asked him what he had done with the mail. Gaillard opened the door, and, I without .saying a word, fired four times in rapid succession, two of the balls passing very close to Mr. Fant's head. A war? rant was issued on Wednesday morning for Gaillard, but he had disappeared. We regret to annonnce the death of Os? car L. Stringer, which occurred at the res-. idence of his father, Mr. A. J. Stringer, in Belton, on the 9th inst, after an illness -of-8e??raj--Baontho ? from-- consumption. He was a young man of high character and fine promise. Thoroughly-upright and intelligent, he had the prospect of achieving a fine success in life. He was for some time telegraph op? erator in Greenville, and at the time :health gave way was upon the Western & Atlantic Railroad in Georgia. He was eighteen years of age, and was a member of the Belton Baptist Church. His re? mains were interred on Tuesday in the Baptist Conietory at Belton, after appro? priate funeral services conducted by Rev. T. P. Bell.. The Shelby (N. C.) Aurora, of the 5th inst-, says: "Dr. W. H. Strickland, who entered upon his pastorate here last Sun? day, came to Shelby with a good reputa? tion and with high expectations cn the part of his congregation to meet. It is enough to say that he has sustained that reputation and fulfilled every expectation. .OnSaturday night a kind of recognition meeting was had at the Baptist Church, on which occasion short speeches of wel? come were made by a number of the lead? ing members of the Church and respond? ed to by the new pastor in his happiest style. Sunday morning the Church was crowded to its utmost capacity with a congregation eager to encourage him in his now field of labor. His sermon was able, it was compact, it was eloquent, and moved the hearts of his large congrega? tion. It was full of ideas and full of the very pith of the Gospel. Everybody went away satisfied, and felt assurance that Providence had sent a man here who was believed to exercise a great influence in this community. Dr. Strickland is a man of liberal culture, of magnanimity, and generous spirit and his coming to Shelby will add to the progress of Christian work. His Sunday morning's sermon, so full of' good things, will appear in next week's Aurora." A Dastardly Outrage. Last Thursday, Mr. Wm. Boweu, a re? spectable and substantial citizen of Center [ ville Township, found in his mail box, which is nailed to a tree, on the roadside, in front of his residence, an anonymously signed letter, in which he was abused, blackguarded, cursed, and villified, and which ended by threatening his life. The letter was signed "Wade" and "Sam." This letter dia not give Mr. Bowen much uneasiness, as be thought some one was perhaps trying to frighten him. That night after Mr. Bowen had retired to his bed, he was aroused from his slumbers by a loud knocking on bis door. After asking who it was and what was wanted, and receiving no response, begot up and went to the door, but found no one there. Thinking that he was mistaken as to the knocking on the door, he went I back to his bed. A short time elapsed, and ho was again aroused, this time the noise sounding as if some one was strik? ing the door with a club or throwing rocks aguinst it. He again got up, and, calling to his son, who was sleeping up-stairs, they went out on the doorsteps and hol looed several times. The night was very dark, and they could neither see nor hear any one. Mr. Bowen, thinking that lie could frighten the intruders fired his gun, and as he did so, a volley of shot and pistol balls came whizzing through the darknoss at him. Fortunately, however, the balls did no damage, though Mr. and Mrs. Bowen were both standing in the door, the facing of which was struck by several buckshot. Mr. Bowen then closed his door, and was not molested any more during the night. Next morning a coffin, with the words "take warning" posted on it, was found in his yard. From this Mr. Bowen concluded that the authors of the anonymous letter in? tended carrying out their threats, and ho determined to attempt to ferret out the matter. Some time ago, two young men, Messrs. Sam. Hillhousoand Wade Chamblee, who reside in his neighborhood, had a difficul? ty with his son. This difficulty, of course, created bad feeling between tho parties, and was the cause of many harsh words whenever they mot. The fact that the anonymous letter which Mr. Bowen received 'was signed by the given names of the above mentioned young men, lod him to believe that they wore tho parties who had sent him tho letter and made the outrageous attack on him. Ho came to tho city on Friday and swore out war? rants against these young men. Tho warrants wero lodged with tho Sheriff, who went immediately to.arrest thom. They, however, could not be found, and up to this tinio evaded arrest, though the Sheriff has searched for them carefully and made every effort to capture them. The attack on Mr. Boweu was a most cowardly outrage, and tho guilty parties, whoever they may be, should bo brought to justice. Such acts of lawlessness should not be countenanced by any law abiding citizen, and it is the duty of every good citizen to assist the officers in ferret? ing out the criminals and bringing them to justice. Sheriff Bolt is determined to arrest tho parties charged with this attack, if possible. Bill Arp. Mr. W. H. Smith (Bill Arp) will deliver a humorous lecture in Anderson on next Thursday ovoning, the 19th inst. One-half of the proceeds will be given to some charitable purpose in this citjT. Admis? sion 50^ ?*? children 25 cents. Mr. Smith is a must interesting lecturer, and all who wish to have a hearty laugh and a pleasant evening should attend. The Holiness Meeting Rev. G. D. Watson, the evangelist of Kentucl., accompained by his wife, and Mrs. Bangs, of Philadelphia, arrived in the city last Friday. They came direct from Thomaston, Ga., where a successful revival has just come to a close. On the same train came Rev. R. C. Oliver and wife, of Spartanburg. These persons are in Anderson by invitation of Rev. J. W. W?lling, pastor of the Methodist Church, for the purpose of conducting a revival or Holiness meeting. The doctrine of holiness or sanctifica tion has been attracting a great deal of attention in other States, but in our im? mediate section the subject has never be? fore been agitated, at least in our recollec? tion. Our people were eager and anxious to learn something about the subject, con? sequently the meeting was well adver? tised. The meeting opened on last Friday evening, and notwithstanding the inclem? ent weather, a large audience turned out Mr. Watson conducted the meeting, and his discourse was of an explanatory order. Again on Saturday night the Church was filled. Sunday morning Mr. Watson preached an interesting sermon to a largo congregation. In the afternoon a testi? monial meeting was held, and it was evi? dent that the interest in the services was increasing rapidly. At night services were held again, at which time there was scarcely standing room. Since then three meetings have been held each day, the afternoon meetings being set apart for the ladies, being conducted by Mrs. Wat? son or Mrs. Bangs. At the night services the Church is inadequate to seat the peo? ple. All the denominations of the city are attending the services, which is the *opic of conversation on the streets, in the stores, workshops, offices, homes, Ac. On Monday evening Mr. Bismuth Miller, of Augusta, Ga., who for years past has been an infidel and a drunkard, and who was converted at the recent holiness meeting in Augusta, arrived in the city. He was invited here to assist in the meeting. Tuesday night he addressed the congregation, giving a brief sketch of his life and the way in which he was led to profess religion. His remarks were very interesting. His words seemed to impress every one present that he was sincere in the cause of Christ, and no doubt had a good effect on his hearers. Since his conversion he has determined to labor in the Master's Vineyard, and, if possible, save others from perdition. Mr. Watson is not an eloquent man, but his sermons are presented in an easy, comprehensible manner. He seems to be an enthusiast on the doctrine of sanctifi cation, which he presents at every meet? ing. Some of his illustrations are very beautiful, and while many may not agree with him, they cannot help admiring the zeal and earnestness with which he pre? sents the subject Mr. Oliver is no stranger to a number of our citizens, for he is well known all over the State. He is an earnest, zealous la? borer in the Church, and accomplishes good wherever he goes. The meeting will continue for several days yet. The interest increases at each service. Many penitents are at the altar at every service, and a number ol the Church members are seeking sanctifica tion. We hope that much good will be accomplished through the meeting, and that many who are now out of the Church may be brought to Christ. The Anderson Military School. This institution seems to be in a flour? ishing condition.' Last week was "ex? amination week." Every class was re? quired to stand a rigid written examina? tion. That is a new feature in that insti? tution, and promises good results. Wo are informed that some of the students made very fine papers, while others, as is the case in every school, did not .do so well. One case, we think, deserves spe? cial mention, and the young gentleman, will pardon us for mentioning his name. Mr. R. A. Bagwell, of Greenville County, after standing an examination which last? ed about four hours, handed Prof. Ligon a paper which was faultless. The Pro? fessor, after examining it, remarked: 1 'I will give one dollar for every mistake that can be found in it." That kind of a compliment, coming from a gentleman of Prof. Ligon's ability, is worth something. Several other cadets made fine papers, and prominent among them were four or five of Anderson's own sons. Anderson points with, pride to the record of her boys at West Point, Annapolis, and at the South Carolina College; and she rejoices to know that her student-citizens are manfully sustaining the reputation of her school and of the city itself. Prof. Ligon, aided by his popular and efficient assistant, Col. J. G. Clinkscales, seems to be determined to make the school succeed upon its own merits. An? derson should be proud of this institu? tion, and our citizens should take advan? tage of every opportunity to speak an en? couraging word for it. There are many young men and boys liviug in reach of Anderson that ought to go to the Military School during the Winter months at least. Some are under the impression that they must pay tuition from the opening of the session, the first of September. That is a mistake. The pay begins when they en? ter. If you must have your boys in your crop during the Spring and Summer, send them to school during the Winter. ! An Elegant Establishment. "Come in here," said Mr. Means, one of the proprietors of Means & McGee's Clothing Emporium,. the other day, as we were passing, "and let mo show you the largest and most varied stock of gents' f;oods ever shown in upper 8outh Caro iua." We could not resist the invitation, and as we walked through the establish? ment, we came to the conclusion that Mr. Means had not exaggerated. "Here," said lie, "are lour all-wool $10 suits, which have never been sold for less than $12. We can also sell a good suit for $6. These suit" here are worth $20, but we are selling theL. at $16.50, and they are going off rapidly. The suits on this counter," he continued, pointing to his right, "are be? ing sold at $25?the best and cheapest suits we have ever offered to the trade. We guarantee every suit we sell to fit. We are offering overcoats at any price, and boys' suits, too. In ladies', misses' and gents' shoes we are the leaders. We han? dle nothing but the best. In gents' un? derwear, neckwear, hats, &o., we never miss a sale when people see our good sand learn our prices. Our stock of trunks aud valises, too, is complete." Messrs. Means & McGee are live, wide-awake young men, are building up a large trade. Pay their store a visit and see their goods. Union Meeting.

Pjsex, Prop'r Hartwell Nurseries, Hartwell, Ca. The opposition to the Chinese laborers in the West is intense. In Washington Territory several insurrections have been organized for the purpose of expelling j them, and in some instances bloodshed has occurred. At Yacoma notice was given the Chinese laborers to leave on or before the 3rd inst., and the following telegram gives an account of the manner in which the notice was followed up: "This being the day set for the Chi? nese to leave at a signal given at 9.30 a. in., many hundred citizens congregated and marched in an orderly manner along the streets to tbe Chinese houses, ordering the occupants to pack their goods and leave. The order was complied with. By 5 p. ra. their goods were packed and loaded on drays and the Chinese were marching along by the side of the loaded wagons en route to Lake View, nine miles south of here. The Chinese mer? chants were given until Wednesday morning to pack their goods, each store being allowed three assistants. One hundred aud ninety-seven Chinese reached Lake View about 7 p. m., and camped in tbe vacant bouses. It is not known whether they will take the morn? ing train for Portland, but they probably will. Many of them are walking south on the railroad track. Citizens have sent to the Chinese provisions to last till morning. No trouble has occurred." Now that the result of the elections in New York and Virginia has thrown John Sherman and Governor Foraker out of business on the negro question, it might be well for them to turn their attention to the Chinese, and see if they will have any better success in championing their cause.
