[A certain young mad in this city re? cently received the following verges from Ms favorite girl, who also resides in the city:] I've just a word to say to you, When me you come to see? You know that none in all the world Is half so dear to me. 'Tis this: I would request of you, That when you come again To see me in the evening, You won't stay after ten. For after ten, as moments fly, I tremble o'er and o'er, Lest papa's visage I should see Come peeping at the door. He's there to execute his threat; He said he'd surely come, If e'er you staid so late again, And tell you to go home. And when I down to breakfast go " Papa will frown at me, And say, "My child that beau of yours Is going to hoar from mo. This sort of thing I will not have ; So, when he comes again, I'll just go down and show him out, If he don't go at ten." And so, though your society Makes heart and s^ul beat warm, I heave a sigh of vast relief At your retreating form. You know that you are welcome, O, best beloved of men! Many a scolding you have caused By staying after ten! BRIEF MENTION, Cotton?Good middling 82 cents. The measles have appeared in the city. Sheriff Bolt has only three boarders now.

As the Farmers' Convention meets that day, it is likely that there will be a Jarge crowd in the city. Maj. John B.

There was nothing done at the meeting of the Directors of the Carolina, Cumber? land Gap and Chicago Railroad at Greon wood last Thursday.

The rain has been very destructive in washing tho fresh ploughed lands. Mr. R. F. Bell, father of our young townsman, Mr. W. P.

In a few weeks Mr. Strickland will re? move his family from this city to Camden. Wo regret to lose Mr. Strickland and his accomplished lady as citizens of Ander? son.

Tho one discoverod by tho French ob sei vor, Fabry, will come relatively vory near?within a distance of only 15,000, 000 miles, or but a little more than ono half the distance of tho planet Vonus.

Wilson is going into tho to? bacco business this year. Ho has plants up, and is going to compete for the $100 prize. We hope ho may be successful. The people say they are going to raise their own sorghum, and one man finds himself in quite a predicament. Two of his neighbors are going to purchaso mills, and in ordor to not offend either he says ho will not plant any at all. We think now that these two neighbors should fur? nish him with sorghum next year. Miss Nannio Callaham spont a short time iu our midst last week. Wc trust she may visit us again at an early date. M. H. H. Tucker has just received a lot of frosh canned goods. Prices tho lowost. The Teachers* Association. fcDespite the unfavorable morning, the first meeting of tho Teachers' Association of Anderson County convened according to appointment the 27th tilt., in tho Uni? versity building, with an encouraging number present. In the absenco of tho President and Vice-Paesidents, Col. Clinkscalcs w-as unanimously called to the chair, and in his usual, easy and graceful manner slated Iho object of the meeting, urging the teachers present to bo free and prompt in expressing their views on subjects to be discussed and questions that might arise. The published programme was taken up in order and the appointees present met their respective assignments with read}' speeches and pertinent essays. Notable with those appointed to discuss subjects who were called out to give views or plans relating to school management, &e., etc., were Messrs. J. W. Eskew, D.H. Russell, E. Z. Brown, A. J. Watt, E. B. Vickery, T. II. Garrett, W. J. Ligon, Jos. Stribling, Julius Newton, Misses Nora Hubbard, Maggie Graham, Nettie Hall, Maggie Evans, Alice Davis and others. The readiness with which these teachers responded evinced an intorest in tho work which should call forth hearty congratu? lations to our efficient School Commis? sioner and those of his faithful, earnest teachers for what is being accomplished in the common schools throughout the County. A most enjoyable feature of the meet? ing was tho Calesthenic performance by Miss Nora Hubbard's school. This exhi? bition was given at the earnest solicitation of tho Committee, and Miss Hubbard must feel repaid for her pains inasmuch as it was sanctioned by tho Association in being called for tho second time. Her pupils are from six to fourteen years old, and were dressed in a uniform of blue, braided white, cut plain skirts and sailor waists. A boy of eight or nine summers furnished music at tho organ during the performance. The admirable manner in which those juveniles went through the varied movements and acquitted them? selves generally, shows the tact of their teacher and what can be accomplished with a little pains and practice in this graceful aud healthful exercise. Changes needful in the School Law was the last subject on the programme and was spoken to by Messrs. Cartce, B. M. Richardson, J. Belton Watson, Julius Newton and Col. Clinkscules. Mr. Newton, in a few words, laid before tho Association some pointed and practi? cal suggestions which should have a place in tho minds of our thinking people. The School Law needs changes and lot the subject bo agitated. 'Tis a popular cry that the present law is an evil, is demor? alizing the educational interest, is a curse; then why submit to it? Remarks on tho subject evoked from tho chairman a most enthusiastic and patriotic speech in one of his most eloquent strains. The following resolution was offered by Mr. D. H. Russell and "adopted by the Association : Resolved, As tho sense of this Associa? tion, that wc earnestly urgo our Repre? sentatives in Congress to vote for the Blair Bill. The Teachers' Association was organ? ized at the concluding exercises of the &>nntv Normal last summer with Dr. S. Lander, President; J. B. Watkins, 1st Vice-President; W. J. Ligon, 2nd Yico President; Col. Clinkscalcs, J. M. Lan? der and Miss Nora Hubbard Executive Committee, and C. 0. Burriss Secretary and Treasurer. This is tho first move of tho kind inau? gurated in Iho County, aud from tho signs of tho times, with the push and energj' of our School Commissioner to urgo it for? ward, it will mark a new era in tho his? tory of the County educational interest. And we repeat it, let it come. Dr. Lander's inability to attend was much regretted. C. 0. BoRRiss, Secretary. * Nona from Other Counties. The Furman University students are now boarding in their mess hall for $G per month. l.OSG votes were cast in the Democratic primary in Columbia on last Thursday. For mayor Jno. T. Rhett, present incum? bent, received 595; J. Q. Marshall 491. Rbett's majority 104. There is a widow near State Line Church, Spartanburg County, who owns a good old fashioned rifle and a shotgun, and she knows how to use them. She now and then puts in her appearance at a neighbor? hood shooting match and always takes the prize. A hawk would stand a bad chance fooling around her spring chickens. One of oui farming friends who knows, says if you want to raise fine watermelons plant them and cotton together. He says the bugs and worms, often destructive to watermelon vines, will feed on the cotton instead of the vines. Tho cotton may not be so good, but the watermelons will be all right. This plan is worth a trial.? Walhalla Courier. The following is taken from the Bam well People: ''The administratrix of the late J. Addic All has 'entered suit against the County for ten thousand dollars damages. It will be remembered that Mr. All was killed a mile South of Blackville last year when his wagon ran into a washout in the public road and his cotton gin fell upon his head and shoulders, crushing him to death. Messrs. Robert Aldrich and Chas. Carroll Simms represent the plaintiff and Judge M?her will appear for the County." A letter to the News and Courier from Beaufort yesterday announces the death at that place of Tom Hamilton, who will be remembered as a member of the General Assembly. Hamilton, who was thirty eight years of age, died of pneumonia, of which he had been sick for several days. He was elected to the House of Represen? tatives in 1S7G', and was one of tho first colored members to give his allegiance to tl.c Hampton Government by joining the Wallace House, and thereby securing a quorum. Mr. T. H. Smith, of Liberty, spent one day last week in laying off terraces on Col. Hollingsworth's Twelve Mile River Farms. Captain H. C Grady did some of the same kind of work for Mr. J. (.'. Grillin. When the land will admit of it, terracing is on many accounts preferable to ditching. It shows how to run tho rows, and holds the water where it falls, in place of letting it run off with the fertility of the soil. Terracing beats ditching about as far as ditching beats nothing.?Pickens Sentinel. A very deplorable case of suicide occurred in the city on Thursday night, the victim being Mr. W. Lough ton Campbell, who cut his throat wiih a razor at his residence, 11 Trapnian street. The deceased was IS years old and was well known and respected in the community, being pleasant and good natured and perfectly straightforward in his conduct. He was known to have been suffering from mental derangement for some time past, but gave no intimation ol having designs upon his own life.?News and Courier, 27(h. Mr. W. D. Mann, jailer, openedjjhis bank of potatoes on his farm near Mountain View on^ day last wsrek. He found one large potato in which a mouse or rat had built a bed. It had commenced at one end and eaten out the heart with wonderful nicety, and had put straw in the opening thus made. Owing lo the cold weather all potatoes which were near to this one had been frozen and was rotten. The hull of this one was perfectly sound. It is sup? posed the heat of the occupants had pre? vented it from freezing. The potato, with its bed of straw nicely arranged, is n curl 1 osity.?Abbeville Medium. The material train on the Savannah ? Valley Railroad was partially wreck j o.l just boyond Mill Creek last Mon I day forenoon. The run-off resulted in the derailment of >me box and one Hat car, which wore thrown down an embankment ami badly broken to pieces. Alfred Seigler, a service hand, was so badly injured that he died abou! one hour after the mishap. Another hand, Tube Richardson, received several wounds and internal injuries, from which he will doubtless die. Uoth these are colored men. Cajit. Rich could not account for the accident, except the trucks of the derailed cars were defective in some way. The track was all right.?McCormkk Advance, 25th. Talking with "Old 13." of old times he suid : "Greenville S. C, has grown tobe a right sharp little town. My father clerk? ed for old Jerry Cleveland when there were but two or three families living there. Mr. Cleveland had a store and entertained the Court, and I think the first Court convened there. I remember when (he Mansion House was built. It created as much talk as the Kimball now does in Atlanta. Some of the old habitues of Greenville will re? member Crittendon, tbe proprietor, who was a polite, good hotel man. At one Court a man under the influence of liquor called and asked to be shown to a rcom. The negro who showed him up to his room returned and said the man had lain down on the white counterpane with his muddy boots and clothes on. "Old Crit" went to see about it ; had bis boots taken off, the socks were worse than tbe boots ; but when the negro had taken the socks off Crit in supreme disgust ordered both socks and boots to be put back and let tho man rest. ?LTurlwcll Sun. The General Assembly, at its last session, passed an Act instructing the Comptroller General "To investigate and report to the next session of the General Assembly the names and condition of all citizens of this State who arc unable to earn a livelihood by reason of wounds or other disabilities incurred while in the service of the State during the war between the States." In order to carry out the provisions of this Act, the Comptroller-General has prepared blank forms of application and sent the same to the Clerks of the Court, from whom they may be obtained, and he lequests that all citizens of the State embraced within the provisions of the Act, will as soon as possible forward to him their names with all of the information required on the blank. The applicant must be a citizen of the State, and must have incurred the disability while in the service of tiic State. He must file the necessary certifi? cates to show that he is unable to earn a livelihood by reason of physical disability, and that this disability is the effect of wounds (or inquiry) received while in the service of the State. As the Act provides for a list of such persons only, it will be a waste of time, resulting only in disappoint? ment, to any othors who may take the trouble to send their names. Peinuertou's French Wine Coca.
