Sanders died at his home in Clinton, Ala., on the llth inst., after a very brief illness, aged 66 years. His wife died just a month ago. Dr. Sanders will be remembered by many of our readers, he having resided at one time in Anderson County. He was a brother of Mrs. P. K. Norris, of this city, and was a distinguished physician and an honora? ble, upright citizen. His friends in this County will regret to bear of his death. Mr, J. 8. Fowler is one ;of the most re? markable men we ever saw. On his way np from Augusta last week at Plum Branch, he saw a horse which was stolen from him in 1885, and immediately recog? nized it from the car window. Getting off he saw the party in possession of it, and while explaining the situation, the train left him. He borrowed a saddle, and loped the horse to the next station, McCormicks, ic time to overtake the train, and ship the horse by the same train. For quick perception, and rapid execution, Mr. Fowler has no superior. R. B. A. Robinson Esq., tried a darkey last week for stealing a shoal, but the tes? timony failing, he was dismissed. The justice tben stated that he had a remark? able rooster which when put under a pot would crow when the guilty man touched the pot. He invited the party present to test their innocence, and all promptly touched the pot except one negro who was present and had been suspected. He refused to touch it, saying he was inno? cent and wanted to stay so. His trial is soon to come on, and his conduct on this occasion will be a part of the testimony against him. Col. Robinsou has institu? ted a new crime detector. One of our most prosperous farmers, representing a number of his neighbors, recently visited Augusta, Ga., for the pur* pose of getting prices on plantation sup? plies. Among other things, they wanted to purchase several hundred barrels of floui. The merchants of Augusta gave him prices on tho various articles, aud the gentleman brought them home, and, after conferring with his neighbors, it was de? cided to visit Anderson and give our mer? chants a chance to sell tho goods. This was done, and the same grade of flour which they had priced to them in Augusta was offered them by onr merchants at fifteen cents less per barrel than was offered them by the Augusta merchants. Other supplies were offered the farmers by our merchants at proportionately low prices. Of coarse, these farmers pur? chased their supplies from the Anderson merchants. This speaks well for Ander? son as a trade mart, and only proves what we have always claimed?that goods can be purchased here as cheap, or cheaper, than in any other inland market. We have low rates of freight, and our mer? chants are satisfied with a low profit. Buy your goods from the Anderson mer? chants and'yon will save money by it every time. Death of Sir. W. 8. Llgon. The announcement on last Friday after? noon that Mr. William 8. Ligon had died suddenly that morning in the city ofAu gustarhronght with iirrs Asdersoc^geM* ine grief, which is rarely visited upon a community. The sincerity with which the wide-spread sorrow of our people was manifested at tho sad tidings is a sweeter, grander aud more beautiful tribute to the worth and character of the deceased than can be testified by sculptured marble or monumental spire. Mr. Ligon had gone with the excursion party to Augusta on the Wednesday preceding, and was, to all appearances, as strong and vigorous in health as any man in the party. The ex? cursion was over, and he had arranged to return, with a large portion of the Ander? son party, on the afternoon train. Alas, how sad that return was for his friends. He returned to rest late on Thursday night at the Planter's Hotel, apparently in per? fect health. About half-past eight o'clock on Friday morning, Mrs, Ligon, who was with him, noticed an irregular breathing, and tried to awaken him, upon which he partially raised up iu the bed and was seized with a short, but violent, coughing. Realizing the situation, assistance was at once summoned, and two prominent phy? sicians who were in the hotel soon reached the room, but he bad passed beyond the pale of human aid. Death from apoplexy came to him without a struggle, or an ex? pression of pain. The citizens of A-igusta and the members of the Anderson party manifested every sympathy possible for Mrs. Ligon and the other members of the family who were in Augusta, and the citi? zens of Augusta testified their respect for Mr. Ligon by taking charge of the remains and escorting them to the depot, with the following committee acting ?s pall-bearers: W. A. Garrett, H. C. Cashin, A. R. Hous? ton, J. J. Dicks, W. M. Danbar, F. L. Fuller, C. F. Baker, W. N. Mercier, F. A. Calhoun, Joe W. White. The remains reached Anderson on the 9.15 p. m. train of that day, and were met by fally two hundred citizens of Anderson. A commit? tee appointed from the Knights of Honor to escort the remains to the residence of the late Judge Reed, where Mr. Ligon re? sided, was composed as follows: Messrs. D. 8. Maxwell, A. P. Hubhard. J. G. Clink scales, A. S. Stephens, Dr. W. H. Nardin and W. S. Brown. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. D. E. Frierson, D. D., of the Presbyterian Church, on Sun? day afternoon, at 8.30 p. m? in the Baptist Church, which is the largest room in the city, but could not contain near all of those who* gathered to pay this tribute to the memory of the departed. The procession from the house was one of the longest that has ever been seen in Anderson. In addi? tion to the family and connections of the deceased, the Presbyterian Sabbath School, in which Mr, Ligon was a prominent mem? ber and faithful teacher, joined the proces? sion, evincing the esteem and love which they entertain for the memory of the de? parted, Messrs. B. F, Whitner, W. W. Humphreys, Dr. W. H. Nardin, D. S. Maxwell, C. F, Jones, R. S, Hill, W, S, Brown, ?. B. Murray,* J,' L', Trlbble, James M, Sullivan, J. G, Cunningham and Dr. S. M. Orr, acted as pall bearers. The funeral services were solemnly and im? pressively conducted by Dr, Frierson, and at their conclusion the remains were in? terred in the Baptist Cemetery, ?William S. Ligon was born April 1, 1853, and was the oldest son of Prof, and Mrs. W. J. Ligon. He wus educated at his father's Academy in Anderson, and in 1870 took a finishing course in the South Carolina College- Upon graduating in several of the schools of that College he returned to Anderson and began life as a clerk in the office of Gen. W. W. Hum? phreys, Probate' Judge. After holding several positions of this kind, he with Mr. R. S. Hill, purchased the business of Capt. W. S. Sharpe, one of the leading merch? ants of Anderson, and under the firm name of Ligon & Hill did a most successful business. He has been continually en gaged in merchandise ever since, and at the time of his death was the bead of the firm of W. S. Ligon & Co., one of th6 leading business houses of our city. Mr. Ligon was very popular in Anderson. He was ciectin! Alderman for three successive term*, a?d refuse*I to serve longer. He WJis tlie Tu-asiirer oT ihn Savannah Valley Railroad fMm its inception, and upon its completion \v;us appointed agent at Ander? son. This posit inn lie declined because it was cxpic e l that tho. rund would run Sunday !rains, and he did not feel at liber? ty to acctpt a position which required him to work on the Sabbath. He was in every t respect a model man. With the modesty and tenderness of a woman he combined the sound judgment and self reliance of a man. With an even temper and a high moral character he lived a life that was above reproach. True and sincere in all the relations of life, he commanded the admiration and love of those who knew him. Strictly temperate in all things, and a meek and pious Christian, bis life was one of consistent walk in the path of duty. Generous without ostentation, his deeds of kindness and of charity, though unpreten? tious, were many and great, so that to-day the memory of Willie Ligon brings a tear of gratitude and affection to the eye of many in the humbler walks of life that the world never sees and will never know. To him life was a pleasure, but its pleasures were always consistent with duty. With a nature genial and lovely, with success in business and happy surroundings in life, he bad all that goc3 to make up the highest happiness, and used these blessing as trusts committed to him to brighten and bless those with whom be was associated. His was a life that made the world brighter and better for his having lived in it. His death is a loss to the business in? terests of Anderson, which he was always ready by sound judgment, and progressive enterprise to build up aud carry forward. He has fallen in the glory of young man? hood, while the honors of life were being gathered by him, No evil ever stained the beauty of his character, Hi3 was a life about which all that is good might well be said, and concerning which nothing that is wrong could be uttered, Belton Items.

Tho different Churches in this section were well attended on last Sabbath, it be? ing a beautiful day. Rev. H. M. Allen preached a timely and thoughtful sermon to his congregation at Cross Roads, which was highly appreciated by his hearers. Rev. A. McS. Attaway preached his first sermon to his congregation at Hebron ! on last Sabbath evening, and made a'very favorable impression upon all who had the pleasure of hearing him. He is an earnest and entertaining speaker, and should have the earnest support of his flock at this place. Mr. A. J. Hall, sr., who has been con? fined to his room for severnl months of the past year, is able to be out again and attend to bis usual avocation. We wish him continued good health. Mr. J. C. Haralin, the veteran horseman, has recently returned from Florida, being called home by tbe severe illness of his wife. He says Florida is very attractive on account of her beautiful towns, with their smooth streets and well shaded side? walks, and that flowers are so plentiful that you can find "bouquets" with a nice card attached and bearing your name al? most anywhere you go. Verily, it must be a "Land of Flowers." The contract for building a depot at Cross Roads Church has been made and the money paid in to tbe Railroad author? ities. Work upon the same will be com? menced immediately. We also learn that oeveral stores, guano houses and resi? dences will be erected at this place at an early day. Au effort will also be made to establish a Postofflce at this place. There has been a large exodus of young men from this section to other States du? ring the past winter. What few remain are mostly bachelors, and as the field is now open to them, we think it an oppor? tune time for them to step to the front and win the heart aud hand of some fair lady. Messrs. Lon. Emerson and J. M. Hall, who belong to this fraternity, say thoir chances for success in the matrimo? nial line have appeared hopeless, but now they think a better day is dawning upon them.

Tho Augusta Reception, Tho afternoon train on the Savannah Valley Railroad on Tuosday, the 11th inst, brought the train and reception committee intended to carry the invited guests from the Savannah Valloy Road to Augusta. Engine No. 53, in charge of Engineer Jeff Weltch, brought tho usual mail and baggage cars with three hand? some coaches for the transportation of the visitors, under the command of Capt. J. C. McMaster, one of the most efficient and accomplished conductors on the whole line of the Central Railroad. But the hospitality of Augusta did not stop there, for they had sent a Reception Committee of thirteen of the leading citizens of that beautiful and progressive city, to receive* their guests and entertain them enroute to Augusta. The committee consisted of W. A. Garrett, Chairman, with Messrs. F. L. Fuller, W. M. D unbar, J. J. Dicks, A. R. Houston, C. F. Baker, Col. Joe White, W. N. Mercier, H. C. Casbin. F. A. Calhonn, H. F. Chappell, M. P. Walsh, of the Chronicle. The committee were met by Mayor Tolly and Gen. Hum? phreys, and welcomed to Anderson. They wereassignod to Mrs. Kcese's bouse, and were driven over the city in the after? noon by Mayor Tolly, Gen. Humphreys and Mr. J. S. Fowler. The Augusta Chronicle says: "The evening was spent with Mayor Tolly, Gen. Humphreys and Mr. J. S. Fowler, and the popping of champagne told that two weeks of prohi? bition was not sufficient to exhaust the supply which had been stored away for dry days." Before leaving Anderson a meeting of the committee was called, at which Mr W. A. Garrett, Chairman, presided. The following resolution was moved by Mr. W. M. Dunbar, seconded by Col. W. N. Mercior, and unanimously adopted : Resolved, That this committee tender to tho Mayor and citizens of Anderson8 thanks for its cordial reception and hospi? table entertainment while in Anderson. Resolved, That the thanks of this com mitiee aro hereby tendered Mrs- M. Koese, and her charming little daughter Lizzie for their kind attention. At 9:15 on Wednesday morning the announcement from Capt. McMaster, "all aboard," was followed by the ringing of the bell, and the short whistle of starting, and as merry a party as ever left Ander? son were steaming away to Augusta under the pleasant charge of Col. Garrett and his attentive committee. The following persons composed the party on this line : "J. W. Trowbridge, Misses Jessie and Nellie Trowbridge, Miss Lizzie Keese, Mayor G. F.

En-route to AugU9ta the party received ticketB to the Banquet and Ball with the insignia of guests. They were relieved of their checks and furnished transportation to the hotel of their selection. Col. Gar rett's committee paid their guests every possible attention, and contributed largely to the pleasure of the trip. We have never seen an excursion so perfectly man? aged as was the trip to Augusta. On arriving in the city at 3:30 p. m., the party were furnished transportation to the hotels, and soon there was the bustle in? cident to locating a large party in hotels, which could not enlarge the number of their rooms to suit the occasion. A simi? lar excursion came down ahead of us from Sandersville, and still another followed from Greenville, The event of the day, however, was tho SUMPTUOUS BANQUET given by the City of Augusta to the visi itors from Georgia and South Carolina, which was served in the most approved method in the spacious dining room at the Planter's Hotel, undor the manage? ment of its proprietors, the Messrs. Sco field Brothers. The committee had ar? ranged seats for about five hundred guests at five tables running the length of the entire hall. The menu was varied and tempting, and was served in a most dexterous manner by trained servauts. The banquot began at about ten o'clock in the evening, and upon assembling in the ball an address of welcome was delivered b3r Mayor May of Augusta. The banquet was presided over by Hon. Patrick Walsh, of the Chronicle, who, after tho popping of the oorks from the cbampagn, bottles be? gan, announced as the first toast of tho evening, the sentiment: "Our Guests?Our hearts and our homes are open to you. Wo bid you thrice wel? come to tho mart of your fathers." Dr. J. M. Hull responded in a short and ap? propriate address of welcome. The next toast was Carolina and Geor? gia. "Tho river divides tho States, but does not separate the people." Lieutenant Governor Mauldin, of South Carolina, responded on behalf of this State in an able and ringing speech, which elicited frequent bursts of applause. Mr. M. P. Carroll was called upou by Chairman Walsh to take the place of Hon. John S. Davidsoi?, who had been unex? pectedly called away, and responded in an interesting and pleasant speech on behalf of the State of Georgia. In response to tho toast?"The City of Augusta, one of the most favored of Southern cities in geographical position and other natural advantages. She has the resources to make her one of the great and prosperous cities of the country by the intelligence, industry, aud unity of her sons."' Mr. Walsh called upon Mr. W. H. Fleraming, who responded in an elabo? rate review of the city of Augusta and her advantages. Col. Walsh next announced tho toast? "Tho railroads: The great developers of our country, and the educators of our people," which was responded to in an eloquent and facctiou3 addros?, which was greatly admired by all who hoard it. Tho next toast of the evening wag "Our sister cities." Mayor E. F. S. Rowley, of Greenville, responded appropuately for the Mountain city; Mr. Joseph T. John? son, of Laurons, responded for Laurens; Mayor G. F. Tolly responded for Ander sou in a fine speech that elicited frequent rounds of applause. He spoke of th friendly relations of Anderson and Augusta, of the pleasure our citizens take in being brought so close to her, and the growth of our young city. His speech was one of the hits of the evening. Col. S, G. Jordan also responded elo quently for Sandersville, at the conclu sion of which the last regular toast the evening was announced: "Woman Tho savior of our race?the light of our life?the joy of our hearts?the peace our homes?the blessing of our souls God's most beneficent gift to man." The Hon. W. C. Benet, of Abbeville, respon ded most handsomely to this theme, and fully sustained his reputation as a polished and eloquent speaker. After a numbet impromptu calls and some responsos, the banqueters dispersed, havingf-pent a most pleasant evening, and carrying away with them the most pleasant recollections the hospitality extended to them. The morning of Thursday was clear and pleasant, and the visitors generally occupied their time in "doing up the city It was our good fortune to fall into the hands of Col. Garrett, who also took charge of Mayor Tolly and Mr. Bleckley and drovo us over the city and its suburbs Augusta can well afford to submit to in spection by ber visitors, for she is one of the most beautiful and attractive cities in the South, with wide streets shaded by magnificent oaks, and adorned with palatial residences. The suburban town of Summervillo perched npon tbe sand bills that overlook the city, is replete with natural beauty and artistic adornment. Its very atrnos phere aud all its surroundings are sug? gestive of health and happiness. But the beautiful is not tbe only attraction which Augusta possesses. She is one of the prominent and growing business centers of tbe South, and has evinced more pluck and sagacity in tbe development of her material resources than any city of her population (about 40,000) in tbe South She has built a canal for water power nine miles long, at a cost of about $1,800 000. This investment has given her seven largo factories, whose gross earn ings are $10,050,000 per annum; which employ 2,500 hands, and pay out 91,000,000 per year in wages. In addition to this there are many smaller manufactories and mills, which keep the music of the wheels continually chiming along the banks of the canal. This is a magnificent monu men t to the sagacity of Augusta, and is the source of a large part of her prosperity In the development of her railroad system she has been equally wise and successful and to-day she has the whole valley of the Savannah drained on both sides by roads running to her doors, and has pierced on to Greonville and Spartanburg, with the reasonable certainty of the early comple tion of other lines of railroad through the State of South Carolina. We also visited the portion of the city in which the cotton factors business is located, and went through tho office and warehouses of Messrs. Garrett and Lsttimer, where Mr Bleckley, of our party, was the only man who could grade cotton or fully appre? ciate the business. By tbe way, Mr. Lat imer is a brother of Mr. A. C. Latimer, of our County, and has achieved great suc? cess in bis business. It goes without tbe saying that in the custody of so pleasant an host as Col. Garrett, and in viewing the attractions of so beautiful and interesting a city as Augusta, although it was not the first occasion upon which the writer had seen them, we spent a most pleasant morn? ing. The afternoon was distinguished by in? cessant rain, and everybody was kept in doors. We with Maj. P. K. McCully availed ourselves of an opportunity to pay a visit to the office of the Chronicle, which we regard as one of the most high toned, reliable and progressive journals in the Union. On Thursday night the entertainment of the visitors was concluded by a aRAND BALL in the Opera House, which had been .pre? pared for the occasion by building a floor above the opera chairs. The word "Wel? come" hung below the drapery of the stage, and the ball was brilliantly lighted. Sweet music at 9 o'clock announced the opening of the ball. The balcony and gallery were filled with spectators, while the floor presented a dazzling spectacle of beauty and grace which Vi? have rarely seen equalled. Quite a number of An? derson ladios graced the floor by their presenco, and contributed to the beauty and the pleasure of tho evening. We would-like to givo a more. extended, pio turo of the many pleasant features of this delightful entertainment, with the hand? some aud elaborate tolletes worn by the many charming ladies of Augusta and their visitors, but will have to content ourselves with copying the list of ladies from this County who appeared upon the floor with their costumes as published In the Augusta Chronicle, of the following morning: Miss Lillic Barr, blue nuns veiling; Miss Maggie Evans, pitik satin, laces jewels; Miss Leila White, white nuns veiling; Miss Carrie McCully, white salin ; Miss Amelia Brown, blue nuns veiling, lace; Miss Nellie Trowbridge, pink nersienne, black lace, diamonds; Miss Zadio Willis, pink satin, lace, diamonds; Miss Dessie Nardin, pink nuns veiling, pearls; Mrs. E. W. Brown, black silk bead? ed ; Mrs. J. S. Fowler, black silk; Mrs C. W.

Bleckley, velvet, black and old gold, with train; Mrs. John E. Peoples Garnet, velvet aud laco with blue Satin train. Refreshments were served at 12 and at 2 o'clock. Tho ball consisted of dancing twenty figures, and lasted until 4 o'clock. Its management was perfect throughout. The Young America Cornet Rand went with the excursion, and at frequent inter? vals regaled the party with that beautiful music for which they are noted. They were the lions of the party, attracting most attention and receiving numerous ?pleasant and flattering compliments. On Friday tbe party returned to Andor son, but not as they had gone away. All pleasure had loft them with the announce? ment of the sudden death of Mr. W. S. Ligon, and a party never returned to their homes with sadder hearts or more sincere sorrow and grief. A Remarkable Escape. Mrs. Mary A. Dailey, of Tunkhaunock, Pa., was afilicted for six years with Asth? ma and Bronchitis, during which time tbe best physicians could give no relief. Her life was despaired of, until in last Octo? ber she procured a Bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery, when immediate relief was felt, and by continuing its use for a short timo she was completely cured, gaining in flosh 50 lbs. in a few months.

All my customers are pleased with the Machine, and I am having considerable addi? tional demands to gin cotton from parties who desire their seed crashed. Yours truly, G. S. WILLIFOBD.
