List of letters remainiug in the Post office for the week ending,December 15. Persons calling for these letters will please say that they are advertised : J. F. Bosby, Mrs. M. J. Batlon, D. R. Brown, Miss Tachar Bruce, Mrs. M. Daly, Charlie El more, Jerry Foster, A. S. Galbreath, Mar? tha Harrison, G. F. Haygood. Mrs. E. J Howard, Miss Nannie Howcl, Mary E* M'cQee, J. A. '.McGodin, Willie Mitchell, Joaeph Gobs, D. H. Green, J. C. Posey, W. A. Pressly, Mrs. Georgia Wilson. Mr. Thos. M. King, of Hopewell Town? ship, last week killed two Jersey pigs, twelve months old, that netted him 770 pounds of meat. His neighbor, Mr. Wm. W. Melton, also killed one of the same bleed, seventeen months old, that netted him 472 pounds, and Mr. J. A. Jolly, of the same neighborhood, killed two, eigh? teen months old, that made him 881 pounds. This is a step in the right direc? tion, and we wish we could record the same fact for every farmer in Anderson County. These gentlemen made this meat at a very little cost, and it will go a long ways in helping them pull through the hard times for the next year. We will always hear the cry of "hard times" un? til our farmers raise more corn and hogs and buy less provisions from the West. Lei; every man in the County follow the example of these gentlemen, and twelve mouths hence our County will be fifty pei cent, better off than it is to-day. Plercetown Correspondence. Mr, Editor : Perhaps a few items from this section of the County may be of in? terest to many of the readers of your val? uable paper. We have had the heaviest snow-fall that has visited this section in years. Many old people say it is the largest December snow they ever saw. The boys are having a fine time killing rabbits since it fell. One company killed thirty-four last Mon? day. Our young friend, Mr. John Smith, will, we understand, leave the 13th inst., for Waco, Texas, where he expects to sp^nd at least one year. Mr. Smith is an excellent young man, and will no doubt be greatly missed by his many friends and comrades. We have also been informed that Mr. Ben. Irby is going to start, in a few days, to Mississippi, for the purpose of visiting relatives and friends. Mr. Irby lived sev? eral years in Mississippi, but seven or eight years ago, his wife dying, he return? ed to this State, where ho has lived ever since. Rev. Baxter Hays, who has served the Church at Hopewell as pastor for the last three years, has been called to supply the same another year. He has labored earnestly, and well deserves the compli? ment. Mr. Hays is one of those earnest, warm-hearted preachers that any Church might be proud of. Mrs. Ruth A. Martin, aged 73 years, died on Friday night, 10th inst., at the home of her son-in-law, Mr. West A. Wil? liams, in Hopewell Township, after a painful illness of ten days with pneumo? nia. Mrs. Martin was a daughter of Mr. Jacob Duckworth, and was married at the early age of fifteen years to Mr. Abraham Martin, who was abont ten years her senior. In 1875 Mr. Martin died, leaving tho care of the farm as well as of the household on Mrs. Martin, who had in? deed proved a help-meet for him for forty seven long years. Sho was the mother of twelve children, and at her death she had sixty-one grand children and thirty-five great-grand-children, making in all a pos? terity of one hundred and eight. Ten of her children are still living. Mrs. Martin joined the Baptist Church early in lifo, and has honored her profession over since by an orderly walk and Godly conversa? tion. Her remains were interred in the cemetery at Hopewell Church on Sunday. Pierce. Go to H. H. Tucker to get Northern ap? ples, oranges and bananas. 23 Helton Nc?s. The "friends of Mr. Ken on Breazeale, jr., will be"glad to know that he has |suf ficiontly recovered from tho breaking of his arm to be out again. Last Saturday night, while two nogroes, Marshal Burns and Griffin McGee, were playing with a shot-gun the former was shot by the gun, accidentally disci jged in the hands of the latter. The muzzle of the gun was about two feet from tho head of Burns. As in most other peculiarities, tho fact of his having a thick cranium was a very decided advantage to the possessor The shot struck the lower part of the forehead, between the eyes. Dr. J. C. Harris dressed the wound. The s??erer is doing very well, and.it is thought, will recover.

We are having a general change about and shifting of business as usual at this ueason of tho year. Tbe neat and convenient parsonage near the Methodist Church is being completed this week; al to the handsome brick build? ing on main street is being finished. One of the stores is occupied by Messrs. Mar? tin & Co., the other will be occupied by Dacus & Rogers. W. Poore has sold out to Duckworth & Ellison, and G. W. An? derson & Sous have closed out business by selling to W. P. Anderson, who is now merchandising at Easley. Williamston is blessed in having a live Town Council, looking strictly after the interest of the place. During the recent heavy snows they improvised a snow plough with which they had each pave? ment, the street through tho spring park, the bridges, all of tbe important walks cleared of snow. Through the manage? ment and interest taken by our Councrl, the railroad authorities have ordered the freight trains to stand back off of the crossing of the public thoroughfare; also that tbe guano houses be kept in such neatness as none could object, or else bo romoved from off their grounds. And rumor says tbey are preparing to enlarge the culvert to aid in improving tbe health of our town. We hope by this time next year Williamston can boast of being the most healthy town in tho whole Piedmont belt. The town of Pelzor is crowded to over? flowing this fall and winter with workers begging for work and wages. Many per? sons, for miles away, trying to get there, in order to obtain food and raiment for next year. Thoroughly disgusted with cotton raising, anxious to live and not starve, they seek refuge in our manufac? turing towns. Some have rented houses and lands adjoining the Polzer Co. for three and live years. Mr. H. C. Palmer, from near Pendleton, moved his family down last week, and many others are do? ing likewise. We give them all a hearty welcome, for the more people the more business and prosperity. Indeed we are all looking up over this side of tbe old County any way ; trying to pay debts and meet the hard times with a cheerful heart.

And Btill another bargain in a very handsome and beautiful tailor made Astrachan Jersey? nothing like it in Anderson. These are also in the most desirable shades worn this season, aod are fully worth double the money we ask. The regular price of thcHe goods everywhere is $4.00?we will close them out for $2.75. BELOW COST. In order to finally dispose of a small loi; of Clothing still on band, we will offer you a $15.00 Suit for $8.50. A $18.00 Suit for $10. A $20.00 Suit for $12.50. A $25.00 Suit for $15.00. Right here we wish to say to our patrons, and the trading public generally, that* this is no idle assertion to catch or deceive you. We do not intend carrying any Clothing after this season, and as we have only a very small lot left, we are willing to close them out below cost. Remember, that we are the Leaders of Low Prices, and our friends and custo? mers are willing to patronize us as long as we adhere to our motto? LIVE AND LET LIVE. And bear constantly in mind that the day for long winded profits is a thing of the past, and that fortunes are not easily made. We also would like to say that for the want of space we omitted quoting other goods we carry ; and, as a great many already know, we are constantly selling lower than any other bouse here or elsewhere, it would be useless to enumerate. Suffice, however, to say, (and we are not boasting, li're some of our competitors,) in these hard times it behooves all to study their interest and stretch the dollar as far as stretching will bear, because it is easier spent than made. Hence we will only ask you to give us a call berore spending your money elsewhere, and go home satisfied that GENUINE BARGAINS can only be secured at tho Great Bargain House of LESSER, &c CO.
