A matter of interest to the farmers of the South is the fact that thirty-eight of the cotton mills at Fall River, Mass., and' at New Bedford, Conn., have instructed their agents throughout the country to receive no cotton unless same is dry when weighed. The wise farmer, therefore, will keep his cotton out of the weather, for if it be .wet competition among the tuyere is thereby lessened. Two new bales of cotton were sold in the city iast Monday, being the first for this season. The first bale was sold by Mr. W. T. McCown. It was slightly tinged, weighed 426 pounds and was sold at ?J cents per pound. The second bale was sold by Mr. 0. M. Sei gier, was classed good middling, and brought 8*' cents per pound. Both bales were purchased by Messrs. Bleckley, Brown & Fretwell The contractors have commenced tear? ing down the old Methodist Church, and the work of erecting the new brick edi? fice on the same site will begin immedi? ately.

For the present the Methodists will hold ser? vices and Sunday School in the Masonic Hall; We invite the attention of our readers to the advertisement of Foster Fant & Co., which appears elsewhere.

They will carry a com? plete line of clothing, gents' furnishing goods, hats, &c., all of which will be of the latest styles and sold at the very low? est prices. Be sure to give them a call when you get ready to buy. Mr. Will. Bell will be found there, ready to serve his old friends. The earthquake has been tho talk of thb town. Our people have about gotten over their fright, notwithstanding the fact that numerous slight quakes have been felt since the night of the 31st ult. The shocks did no damage in the County, beyond demolishing a number of chim? neys. It is amusing to hear the experi? ences of individuals on the first night of the quake. Many persons contend that the earthquake is a visitation of the Al? mighty, while others do not take that view of it. The former are in the large majority, however, and the 'quake may be a benefit after all. Already several old topers have Eworn off, and others vow that they are going to live more consist? ent lives. A servant's house on Mr- B. F. Maul din's premises was destroyed by fire on Wednesday night of last week. The alarm was given just a few minutes be? fore 10 o'olock. The firemen responded promptly, but before they reached the scene the house was completely enveloped with the flames. The Hook and Ladder Company arrived on the ground first, and at once began pulling down the frame. The Pioneer steamer was stationed at Maxwell's cistern, but its hose was too short to reach the fames. The Rough and Ready was stationod at the cistern near the burning house, and did good work. Everything in the house was con? sumed. The occupants of tho house were at Church when the alarm was given, and the cause of the fire is unknown. Mr. Mauldin estimates his loss at $100. Dispatches received from all over the country indicate that the earthquake was felt throughout the American continent. I Charleston, however, seems to have been the centre of disturbance. That city has had many misfortunes, but none have ever equalled the damage done by the 'quake. The state of affairs there is de? plorable. Numbers of lives have been lost, and ten million dollars worth of property destroyed The people are afraid to enter their houses, and are camped out in the parks, squares and other public places. With this condition of affairs, it is feared that great suffering and want will follow. This noble coun? try of ours, however, is coming to the rescue of the stricken city, and liberal contributions of money are pouring in from almost every section of the country. Our own Palmetto State, too, is contribut? ing liberally. On Monday Mayor Tolly and Gen. Humphreys canvassed the city and secured a subscription of $576.00 for the relief of the sufferers. The Ander? son National Bank also made a contribu? tion of $250.00, and the Lodges of Knights of Honor and Masons have also contri? buted $50.00 each, which makes near $1,000 sent from Anderson. This is a liberal contribution from Anderson. There may be others In the County who may desire to coutribute their mile to help ruliovo tho sufferings of our friends. If so, they can hand the money to Mayor Tolly or Gen. Humphreys, who will -promptly forward it. ? There aro hundreds of people in tho County who are ahlo to coulributo some? thing, and it is their duty to do so. Since tho above was put in typo, wc learn that the Hook and Ladder Company has con? tributed $25.00 and Grace (Episcopal) Church $15.00 to the sufferers. Holland's Store Items. Cnpt. William Jones is confinod .to his bed with fever. It goes oxtreraoly hard with a man of his energy and industrious habits to be prostrated. We trust that he . will soon be up and able to attend, to his business.' Tbc election passed off quietly on 26th ult. Every person voted just as he pleased. All seemed to have their minds folly made up before reaching the polls. Fodder'pulling is about over. Cotton picking will soon commence?in fact, it has already begun with some of our earli? est birds.. The earthquake gave our neighborhood a genuino sbako up, and notwithstanding the solemnity of.the occasion, some right fanny things happened. One poor fellow left his bed, forgetting his trousers, and run for dear life to the nearest neighbor's, the rear half of bis garment keeping time to the gentle breezes. All were alike seared, the holy' as well .as the unholy. . The former, notwithstanding their readi? ness to .go at any and all'times, showed unmistakable signs of desiring to cleave to old mother, earth awhile longer; We think, upon the whole, it has already done great and lasting good, making us all feel, however much we may dislike to own it, our complete nothingness, and that .God reigns supreme. Burke. Wllliamston Correspondence. The earth quaked; yes, indeed, it did rock, shake and tremble, and rattled our mansions and .cabins, with .no respect to houses nor persons. It shook on occa? sionally all through the night, and now the people are quaking, rattling, quiver? ing and shaking still. Sorno with a long face can see nothing to laugh at, while others are splitting their mouths laughing over their many little ridiculous acts. One poor fellow bounced out of his bed, jerked up his stick, and 'struck in the dark at his dog for kicking up such a fuss, while another pitched his chair at his im? aginary dog. One lady yelled out, "I will shoot you; don't come in here." Thrt was not bo laughable as what her neighbor did, as she stuck her head out the window and screamed, "You demons, what are you trying to break into ? leave here," and then she ran to.the hen roost, shouting, "They oven have my chickens squalling; leave here, you imps I" Our colored friends were holding a reli? gious, meeting, and oh! what a general - stampede and yelling they had down street. Some rang tho bell, thinking it would stop the earth and folks. Many neighbors ran to each other, and others talked across the streets. How polite and nice tho most bitter enemies appeared to each other as long as old mother earth'continued to- shake. They forgot to be mean., and felt as if they were standing in the immediate presence of their Maker, fully realizing how sinful and weak they are. Let there be another earthquake if it will be tho means of bringing into our hearts "more of that love whioh worketh our neighbor no ill." We have just heard the sad news of the death of Dr. J. G.

ANDERSON MALE ACADEMY. W. J. LIGON, Principal. . THE property of the Anderson Educa? tional Association, known as the University, having been leased to other par? ties, I beg leave to inform my friends, and the public generally, that I will open a School for young meu and boys in the City of Anderson on the 30th August next. Having spent thirty-seven years of my life exclusively in the business of teaching ?twenty-eight in Anderson County and nine elsewhere?the fruits of my labors are well known, not only to this people, but also to many others outside of this County and in different parts of the State; and it is, therefore, with a confident expectation of a liberal support from my former patrons and others that I offer my services to the people of Anderson and surrounding coun? try, '. It is my purpose,, by careful and unre? mitting attention, to teach thoroughly all the Classical, Mathematical and Scientific branches usually taught, in High Schools and Academies, and at the same time equal care and attention will be given to those engaged in the elementary and less advan? ced studies, using for both classes' of stu? dents the latest and most approved Text Books, and adopting such modern methods of instruction as have received the endorse? ment of the best educators of our time. Special attention will be given to the ?reparation of students for College, and to ose who are unable, for lack of time or means, to take a Collegiate course, my ear? nest efforts will bo given to aid them in acquiring a solid, well-grounded education which will fit them to discharge creditably and efficiently all the poetical business du? ties of life. I trust I will be excused if I refer with a pardonable pride, as a result of my life's work as an educator, to the large number of my former students; of both sexes, who have won the first prize at several rigid competitive examinations; and, also, to the long list of young men who have achieved success in the learned professions, and con? spicuous success in other honorable busi? ness avocations. It is not my intention to antagonize any other institution of learning in our City there is room for all; but by faithful, con? scientious work, I hope to merit and re? ceive a proportionate share of the public patronage.: The scholastic year extends from August 30th, 1886, to June 3rd, 1887, divided into two sessions. The first ends Jan. 15th, 1887, and the second begins on the following Monday and ends June 3rd, 1887. There will be an intermission of one week at Christmas. Charges will be made by the session, and when a student enters school, he will be charged from the day of entrance to the end of the session in which he enters. No deduction will be made for loss of time, ex? cept in cases of long, protracted illness. Tuition fees must fie paid promptly at the end of each month, or a satisfactory arrangement made with regard to them. No student greatly in arrears will be al iowed to continue in the school. Teaching is the business by which I gain a liveli? hood, and it is as reasonable that I should require prompt payment for my work when it is done as any other laborer in any other work. The merchant can giye long credit, but he always charges proportionately higher prices. The rates I offer are strictly cash?payable monthly. Tuition fees will be $12.00, $16.00 and $20.00 per session, according to the studies ursued by the student. Contingent fee fty cents per session, to cover incidentals. Arrangements have been made by which students can be boarded at reasonable prices in the City. Students of my School, boarding at any place, will be responsible to me for their conduct. Further information with regard to my School will be cheerfully furnished. Don't hesitate to apply for it. Aug 12,1886 5 3m MUSICAL. MTJ&S? A., N.

READ HIS LAST LETTER. 335 BROADWAY, NEW YORK, AUGUST, 188G. " Tlicrc is a decided tendency for higher prices, especially in Woolen Goods, as Wool has advanced nearly 25 per cent. Cotton Goods, owing to the scarcity of labor, and constant labor strikes, will also be a little higher ; but being early in the market, while trade here is dull also, several friends, wlio are also large buyers, and myself clubbed together and made most advantageous purcliases, at lower prices than last year even. I propose to give the people of Anderson 'County, who have always liberally patronized Vie New York Cash Store, a patronage, however, which was well*, deserved, for our prices have always been the lowest, our treatment as kind and attentive as possible, our styles and stocfc always select, the benefit of these inside figures, luhich we obtained by buying in very large Quantities and so very early in the season, infant while it was Summer yet and trade dull. " We also succeeded in making special arrangements with some leadiug Shoe manu faclurers, and we can retail Shoes and Boots from now on at prices that other houses, who do not buy direct and in big quantities, have to pay for tliem wholesale.
