The Anderson correspondent of tho
Augusta Sentinel announces that Maj. B.
F. Whitner, of Andersou, will be a can?
didate for Congress from the Third Con?
gressional District of this. State, and
speaks in confident terms of his chances
for the nomination. We have also heard
of one or two other prominent gentlemen
iu Audersou County who are expected to
run for this position. It is a little early
to figure on such matters, but it is about
time for Anderson County to have a
showing iu this nomination.
The nomination of Col. Wm. L
Trenholm, as Comptroller of the Cur?
rency, has been confirmed by the Senate,
although a considerable opposition to
him was developed, by the silver men on
account of recent speeches of Col. Tren?
holm upon the silver question?particu?
larly his recent speech before the bank?
ers' convention in which he spoke in de?
cidedly harsh terms of the advocates of
the preseut' silver coinage law. Col.
Trenholm is an accomplished gentleman,
and'thoroughly qualified for the duties
of the position to which he has been
appointed._
A case of considerable interest was
tried in Greenville on last Saturday
before Judge Witherspoon in the Court
of Common Pleas. The wife of Jas.
F. Harrison bronght suit against J. ?.
Payne, a liquor dealer, for selling her
husband whiskey after she had notified
him not do so. The jury rendered a
verdict for $125 for the plaintiff. This is
believed to be the first case of the kind
tried in the State under tbe statutes. If
these suits were more frequent there
would be less of the crime of selling
whiskey to minors and intemperate per?
sons. _
The Republicans are determined to
capture the next Presidency, and to
assist them in this purpose the National
Republican calls upon the Union League
to prepare for the removal of 20,000
male negroes fioni Mississippi to Ten?
nessee, 20,000 to Missouri, 10,000 to
West Virginia and 5,000 to Florida. If
this plan should succeed, the Republican
? might see those States go Democratic
still, for sometimes the negroes are per?
suaded 13 vote the Democratic ticket. It
just depends on how fascinating the
Democrats of Tennessee, Missouri,
Florida and West Virginia, can make
themselves.
The caucus of the Republican mem?
bers of the Senate met last week to
agree upon the policy to be pursued with
President Cleveland in the instances of
Republican officers who have been re?
moved, and in whose cases the President,
and those acting under him, refuse to
furnish the papers relating to the change
to the Senate. Senator Edmunds favored
vigorous action by the caucus, but he
could not command the acquiesence of
the whole of the Republican Senators,
and therefore his schemes failed. The
caucus adjourned without agreeing to
any policy, and the Senate is going ahead
with confirmations. The Republican
members of the Senate have made faces
at the President, but are unable to ac?
compli*!) any more harmful or creditable
achievement in the matter.
That the Catholic Church of America
is giving more direct attention to the
cause of temperance in this country is
evinced by the action cf the third Plenary
Council of Baltimore, which recently
closed an important session. One of the
decrees praises especially societies for
^checking immorality and drunkenness,
aBT!"*2"~particular tribute is paid by the
bishops to the Catholic Union, the Total
Abstinence and the Sacred Thirst Socie?
ties. In concluding this decree, the
bishops say : <-We admonish . all the
faithful who make their living by trading
iu the various liquors, to seriously reflect
npon tbe many dangers and occasions of
sin with which this business is surrounded,
although in itself not forbidden. Let
them choo>e, if possible, a more honora?
ble method of acquiring a livelihood, but
should this not be feasible, they must
endeavor to remove both from themselves
and others all occasions of sin. Let
them not sell intoxicating drinks to
minors or to those whom they know to
be habitual drunkards. They must also
close their stores on Sunday, and vigo?
rously refuse to allow blasphemies, oaths
or indecent conversation withiu their
place of business."
Mr. Editor: You do not seem in?
clined to answer my questions, but no
offense, sir, for that. This does not keep
me and my neighbors from talking and
thinking. If there is no way of finding
out how much the whiskey business of
Anderson- coats the people of tie County
in the way of fines, in addition to drinks,
I take it for granted that it is enormous,
aud that those who know do not like to
tell. Secrecy, profound secrecy, which
would unfold poverty, want and ruin.
But we have learned one thing, and
that 13 that people's rights depend upon
where they may happen to live. If they
happen to live in towns they may decide
whether they will allow whiskey sold or
not. If they live iu the country the
authorities and legislators say, you have
no rights in this matter, for this is deci?
ded by others for you. Out our way
sometime ago, when they wanted us to
help build a railroad by taxing ourselves,
they said we were incorporations; but
when it comes to the whiskey business
they say we are outsiders, and must do
our drinking in town, and pay our fines
there. This is nice, isn't in ?
But I wanted to write you about the
farmers' meeting. I was there, but there
was so much talking and speechifying,
that in fact f never got either beginning
or end of it. I couldn't tell whether it
was a farmers' meeting or a meeting of
all sorts. Tlif-re seemed to be such a
general mixing up, that it was impossible
for one uninformed to find out anything
about it.
Now. Mr. Editor, I am a farmer?at
any rate I cultivate the soil?and I want
to know how ?11 this fuss and noise is
ever going to benefit the farmers? Will
it make our produce any higher? Will
U diminish the price of what we buy ?
Will it lessen the rate of interest we pay
on money? Will it put our property
assessments for taxation on an equal and
just fooling with Edgefield and other
Counties? Will it diminish the pre?
mium we pay for credit, for the meat
and bread and clothes we purchase ? Or
what will it do? A good many of us,
humbly micm, who c-..uldii'l find out
Monday, want to ku.iw :i!l about i!. i.
it political or farmaticnl, if that's the
word? We are iu a bad condition
Many wauls ami necessities, and bul lit
,t!e with which to buy. We need cur?
tailment, reform, somewhere along the
line. Where shall we begin? In the
whiskey shop? the Mayor's Court? the
interest table? the merchants' lien? or
will the Farmers' Convention cause the
dawn of deliverance to break upon us,
and raise us out of all our troubles?
Which of these, Mr. Editor, if any?
Simon.
Mr. Editor : In last week's issue of
the Intelligencer I read with pleasure
the communication of "Citizen." iu
regard to building a bridge across Seneca
River at or below the mouth of Deep
Creek; also, your editorial on this sub?
ject, and the invitation to persons living
in this Township to give their views.
I regard this question as one of vital
importance to the Fork. We have a
thrifty population and good lands, but
are too remote from markets, and espe?
cially from our County Seat. Any
measure which will place us in closer and
more certain communication with Ander?
son is greatly to be desired. There are
many objections to the present route by
Earle's Bridge?the most important,
perhaps, the fact that we arc only in
partial communication with Anderson,
for often when we can cross the river
Deep Creek caunot be crossed.
The road, from the intersection of the
Sloan's Ferry and Earle's. Bridge Roads,
to a point near Mr. Wm. Bolt's residence,
is a succession of bends and turns and
precipitous hills, which in wet weather
become almost impassable, aud prevent
persons going to Anderson from hauling
a load. The distance by Earle's Bridge
i3 also from one to perhaps three miles
further to ma.*iy persons than by the
proposed route. If a bridge is to be kept
up for the convenience of the residents
of this Township, aud persons traveling
through, ?hen it should be situated so as
to do "the greatest good to the greatest
number." The route proposed will
receive the solid support of the people of
the lower half of the Fork, as the'present
bridge is of little benefit to them, it
being a difficult matter for them to make
the trip to Anderson and back in a day
by that route. Cousequcntly, they are
compelled, often, to go to Hartwell and
other points.
On the other hand, so far from being
an injury the proposed change will be a
benefit to those residing in the upper
part of the Township, for I have been
informed, by those who should know,
that by actual survey the new route
would be one mile nearer to Townville,
(and I should thiuk, also, to persons'
residing near Fair Play,) than by Earle's
Bridge, besides affording a good ridge
road instead of hills, and the certainty
of reaching Anderson, instead of the
uncertainty of being able to cros3 Deep
Creek.
Petitions are now being circulated
through the Townships, requesting our
County Commissioners to build a bridge
at or below the mouth of Deep Creek.
These petitions are beiug signed by men,
the majority of whom are compelled to
practice the strictest economy in their
private matters, aud who favor an eco?
nomical administration of our County
and State affairs ; but they are men of
practical good sense, who fully realize
that there is as much false economy in
coustantly patching up au old bridge as
in repairing a run-down vehicle; and,
also, that "time is money," and who can
ill afford the loss of time aud injury to
stock in going through the "Deep Creek
hills." V. F. Martin.
Fighting at Fort Worth.
The extensive strike which has been in
progress along the line of the Missouri
Pacific culminated most seriously at Fort
Worth, Texas, on the 3rd inst.
St. Louis, April 3.?A number of
specials from Fort Worth report that
fighting occurred there to-day between
the strikers and the Sheriffs posse, in
which several persons were killed and
wounded on both sides.
Several hundred merchants and citizens
are now marching down the main street,
ail armed with Winchester rifles and
shotguns. Seven men are now dead and
a uujnber are wounded. The gun stores
are closed and under guard.
Details of the desperate affair are
given as follows: The suggestive quiet
that marked the passage of the freight
traiu through the city was not without its
sequel. Wbeu the train left the depot it
was uuder the protection of a posse of j
officers, commanded by Jim Courtwright.
The train proceeded to the crossing of
the Fort Worth and Missouri road, when
it was stopped, as is customary.
What followed is reported by a railroad
employee who was on the train. He
says: When the train stopped it was
noticed that several men were congregat?
ed on the track in front. Th sse
commander approached the me and
asked why they impeded the progress of
the train, to which they replied tbat they
had nothing to do with it; that they
were not armed aud had no intention of
interfering with the road. As the officer
returned to the train he noticed several
meu sitting or lying on the grass a few.
yards from the train.
The entire posse advauccd toward the
men in ambush until they had reached a
ditch alongside the track, when they
commanded the throwing up of hands.
The command was obeyed, but a3 the
hands came up they brought rifles with
them, which belched forth a deadly fire,
it is said, with fatal effect. There were
perhaps 100 shots fired.
After the first fire the posse advanced
and continued firing. The ambushers
retreated behind some piles of ties, which
proved most excellent breast works, aud
from the security.of which they poured a
murderous fire into the posse.
From this position they were finally j
dislodged and driven beyond the range of
the posse's pistols.
Later.?Police Officer Fulford was
shot through both thighs. Special
Officer Dick Townsend was shot twice
through the left breast near the nipple.
He died at 5.30 o'clock. Special officer
Charles Sueed was shot through the
throat and jaw. His wounds are fatal.
Drs. Vaecker and Farrow, of the Mis?
souri Pacific hospital, say tbat Sueed and
Fulford cannot possibly survive. Only
one of the strikers?Tow Nace, a switch?
man?was wouuded. He is said to bo
shot through the groin.
The people are in a terrible state of
excrement and appear dumbfounded.
The breach between the law and the
strikers has beeu widened and the bitter?
est expressions ca*i be heard on' every
side. There are hundreds of Knighis of
Labor iu the city, who do not appear to
regret the occurrence of to day.
The Mayor has issued a proclamation
appointing 75 deputy policemen and
ordering the saloons to remain closed
until Wednesday next. A petition has
been sent to the Governor for the Stale
Rangers, aud military transportation for
troops has been applied for from Receiver
Sheldon.
The news is received here at midnight
tbat Adjutant General King aud two
compauies of State rangers arc on their
way to Fort Worth on a special train.
? Insuranne estimates show that last
year in this country dwellings were
burned at the rate of one for every hour,
with a loss of ?1,393 on each.
The Floods.
'Vi i' i.iiiis i.i |a>l week produced ?nu of j
tho greatest Hoods e ver known in this
country and we give below a few of tho
accounts from points which sinTercd
most:
Mauox, Ga, April 1.?Hundreds of
people were to be seen on the banks of
the boumiug Oemuigce to day, watching
the mighty current as it swept past carry?
ing death" and destruction in its course.
The incidents last night were fearful, and
with the coming of daylight it was foutid
that an unfortunate man named Cornell
Cheely, a drayman, who had climbed to
the top of a tree for safety, and whose
cries for help were heard at intervals
during the night, was nowhere to be seen,
He was one of the men who refused to
leave his house yesterday morning, even
after the water had reached it.
Another man named Jack Reeves, who
was a fireman at tbe compress, ia also
missing, and it is supposed he was drown?
ed. A number of attempts were made
yesterday and last night to rescue these
men, but each lime the boat capsized,
and the rescuers were compelled to return
to land.
Of the forty or more houses near the
river, iu East RIacon, about twenty-five
were undermined aud have toppled over
and are in all sorts of positions. Many
of the occupants lost all their household
effects and are suffering for the necessi?
ties of life. The river has fallen about
three feet to day aud it is hoped that the
worst has passed. *
Birmingham, April 1.?Specials to
I the Age from the river towns of North
Alabama show that the effects of the
freshet are worse even than telegraphed
yesterday. Gadsden reports the Coosa
river at its highest mark aud rising, with
alarming reports from above. All rail?
road bridges on the branch road, between
Atalla aud Gadsden, are swept away and
a number of washouts on the Alabama
Great Southern are reported on both
sides of the Atalla. The mill and lum?
ber interests at Gadsden have suffeted
immense damage.
The Teunessee is reported out of its
bank? at several points. From Tusca
loosa, on the Warrior river, advices are
serious, though it is believed the worse
has passed. Many houses on eit.jer side
of the river have been abandoned and
the water is running through the doors
and windows. Some families occupy the
upper stories of dwellings and ski ?s and
fiat boats are used for transportation.
The village of Northport, across the
river from Tuscaloosa, is almost submerg?
ed now. The water is a fo^t deep in the
Tuscaloosa Cotton Factory, and work had
to be abandoned. Just before dark tbe
wreck of a small house passed down the
river, and several persons were observed
clinging to the timbers. Rescuing par?
ties, in skiffs, started out in pursuit from
the Tuscaloosa shore and were rapidly
borne out of sight by the rapid current.
Many persons living on low lands below
Tuscaloosa had to be rescued from their
homes in a skiff. No calculation can yet
be made of the amount of damage to the
farming interests and to railroads and
other highways.
? An illicit distiller,, near Gaines?
ville, Ga., which for six years has
escaped detection, has been discovered
and raided. The proprietor had dammed
a small creek, ostensibly to make a fish
pond, and under the-dam he placed his
distillery, with tunnels for ingress and
egress. The smoke was conveyed to his
house and passed out through the kitch?
en chimney.
? Postmaster General Vilas ?eems to be
getting along pretty well. Besides all
the fourth-class postmasters whose terms
have expired, or who have died or re?
signed, lie has removed 8,635, a list of
whom has been sent to the Senate. He
js doing his beat to reform the civil ser?
vice of the Government, and is entitled
to the thanks of the country for the ex?
cellent manner in which he is adminis?
tering the affairs of his department.
Turn the rascals out!
? The young ladies of the Catholic
Churches of Oshkosh, Wis., have signed
a pledge to abstain from round dances
and other dances which are forbidden,
and to do all they can to preveut the
practice of round dancing. They have
formed a society to aid them in carrying
out these purposes. Part of their agree?
ment is to the effect that if they violate
either the letter or spirit of their pledge
by eugaging in any of the objectionable
dances, or in encouraging the same, thev
shall be expelled from the society.
? The New York Herald thinks that
a wart is a good thing to have in the
house. Once there was a happy home.
The husband went about his business and
felt secure. The wife had a big wart on
her cheek, and knowing her ugliness was
satisfied to remain iudoors attending to
her duties. In an evil hour a physician
was allowed to remove the wart. No
scar was left, and the'wouan looked into
her mirror and found herself beautiful.
Other people made the same discovery.
The vain little thing no longer busied
herself with the broom and the duster.
Her husband's buttons were allowed to
drop off iu April showers. The deluded
creature promenaded the streets, and
pretty soon it was the old story of "Good?
bye John." She disappeared, and now
there is a desolate home.
? The Hon. -Jefferson Davis has ac?
cepted au invitation to attend, if practi?
cable, the unveiling of the Btatue of the
late Senator B. H. Hill, at Atlanta, Ga.
Mr. Davis states that he cannot make an
address on the occasion, as his strength
will not permit, though he admits "both
love and admiration for Georgia's great
son, who, rising with pressure, shone
brightest when weaker natures were
overwhelmed with despair." As Mr.
Davis is to deliver an address at Mont?
gomery, Ala., on the 26th of April, iu
aid of the Confederate soldiers' monu?
ment fund, it is expected the unveiling
exercises at Atlanta will take place
April 28. The Atlanta Constitution says
a vast crowd of Georgians will welcome
Mr. Davis, limited only by the capacity
of the trains that run into the city.
? A vessel will leave New York next
week with eighty colored emigrants for
Liberia. One of the number is a pupil
of Lincoln University, near Philadelphia.
Next Fall a larger Dumber will be.-ent, and
during the next four years tho American
Colonization Society will spend ?12,000
a year iu sending out c 1-mists. "Liberia,"
said Secretary Hubbard, of the Pennsyl
vania Colonization Society, to an inter?
viewer, "is the most fertile and beautiful
section in West Africa. It is no place
for white people, however, as the African
fever is fatal to them, while the negro
will flourish under it. To a negro the
climate is salubrious; to a white man it
is almost certain death, although plenty
have beeu able to live there. Liberia
has five hundred miles of coast line and
has vast mineral and agricultural resourc?
es. It is strange that American capital?
ists do not make an attempt to work the
miues in Africa, where gold and diamonds
abound. The Liberiau Republic has
about a million inhabitants, of whom
eighteen thousand are American negroes
aud the rest natives. The latter are
being gradually civilized, aud the time is
not far distant when a great republic will
exist there."
? l ?eiNew l'ork World stales that
the difficulties in the way of aerial nav?
igation have been to a great extent over
come. In 1S83 M. Tissandier construct?
ed a machine in France with which he
obtained a velocity of nine miles an
hour, proper allowance being made for
the wind. Here the French military
authorities took the matter up and au?
thorized further experiments, which were
conducted by Engineers Renard and
Krebs. These officers have recently
achieved the results of thirteen miles an
hour with a manageable machine which
was made to return to its startitig point.
With wind moving faster than thirteen
miles an hour, the return, of course,
could not have been made. It is claimed
that the speed can be increased by fur?
ther experimentation, and it is not an
unwarranted assumption that flying
machines will eventually be built which
can hold their direction in anything less j
than a gale. Of course further exper- !
intents will he made, and if air ships can j
be put to tiny practical use we may ex- j
pect to see them tailing over our heads
in the near future.
? A novel temperance organization
ha* bren formed in Sali bury, Maryland.
Each im n,!i ; puts -I in ;. common pt:r>o
ami promises nut tu drink anything for a
year. If he breaks bis pledge, he forfeits
his :1 to those who remain faith til.
? The evolution of the tomato is
going on in a remarkable way. Not
many years ago the fruit was mostly
sbin and seeds, but the newest varieties
are almost solid pulp with very few seeds.
Possibly, as in the case of the banana,
the seeds will yet disappear altogether
and the plants will have to be propaga?
ted by cuttings.
A Remarkable Escape.
Mrs. Mary A. Dailoy, of Tunklinunock,
Pa., was alilielcd for six years with Asth?
ma and Bronchitis, during which lime the
best physicians could give no relief. Her
life was despaired of, until in last Octo?

was felt, and by continuing its use for a

COLUMniA, S. C, July, 1S3-J.
Westmoreland Bros.?Gentlemen : I
have very thoroughly tested your Cali?
saya Tonic, and do not hesitato to pro?
nounce it a most remedial agent As a
stomachic and general tonic it is unsur?
passed. For eliminating malarial pois?
ons from the system and repairing their
deleterious effects; for rebuilding, rein
vigorating and giving tone to tho system
when reduced by protracted or sevore
fevers or other debilitating causes, there
is in my judgment no other preparation
in the whole'field of medicines equal to
it. But especially is it useful in malarial
disorders, both as a curative and a pro?
phylactic. J. P. ENSOR, M. D

STILL KICKING I
BUT NOT KICKING VERY HIGH.
IT does not matter with the dear people whether I am making money or doing
business iust for the fun of the thing, so long as they can buy Goods from me
cheaper tbau from those who are doing a legitimate badness. Folks who buy on
credit have to stand "legitimate profits"; but those who can pay cash are free to
buy where the best bargains are offered, even when done by small potatoes like me.
I will stand to all I advertise as long as the Goods last. I do not guarantee
the prices for six months, nor that I can keep the Goods even a month. My past
experience has been that the wide-awake people generally took my offerings during
the first and second weeks after advertised. Be assured if you come AT ONCE
you will get them. No humbuggery in this.
Notwithstanding the number sold, I still have
The Best Goose-Necked Hoes at 35 Cents,
And when I say this I do not meau the cheap, light Hoes usually put off as substi?
tutes by some others for these Goods.
When I say
Ames' Long Handled Shovels at 75 Cents,
j I mean it. I offer another good Shovel, made by Oliver Ames ?Sc Sons at C5 cent?,
j PITCH FORKS 40 cents.
SINGLE TREES 25 cents,
j RED CEDAR BUCKETS 50 cents,
Former price 75 cents.
I STILL OFFER AT COST!
My HARNESS and a few SADDLES. Also, a very nice line of TRUNKS, and
LL MY CANNED GOODS.
IF YOU WANT FLOUR,
I can sell you at prices to please. I have no low grade stuff to offer, but if you
want BRAN I can sell you that.
In order to clean out my
STOCK OF HATS,
Before my Spring Goods are in, will sell at NEW YORK COST 1
Until further notice the sale of?
MILES' SHOES
Will continue at Factory C03t. This is, perhaps, your last opportunity to get these
Goods .at such low figures. Only a few of the Curtis $6.00 Shoes, which I am sell?
ing for $4.75, left; but if you find what you want, it is as good as if I had a thou?
sand pav'rs.
MORE ABOUT SHOES.
Just jeceived a fresh supply of HOME-MADE SHOES. Also, a lot of Mens'
and Boys' .Eastern goods. Ladies' Shoes, all prices. Winch Bros. $3.00 Shoes for
Men, as good as can be found anywhere else for that price, I now offer at $2.50.
I will j ust mention a few other Goods I sell, all of which can he had at the
Lowest Pricos:
A few pf.irs PANTS left at less than cost, that will wear almost equal to the
noted leather breeches.
WHITE SHIRTS, laundried and unlaundried.
