Fv Brown has purchased the Holland's Ferry plantation on the other side of the Savannah, including the ferry, and removes his family to it this week." We are glad to claim Mr. Brown and his - family as Residents of our County. One of the most charming young ladies of the County, accompanied by other rel? atives, honored our office with a visit on Monday afternoon, *nd if there is any? thing wrong about this paper this week it is due to that fact, for the whole force, from the Devil up to the Local, was capti \ yated.

Marion Poore, died at her home near Toney Creek last Sunday afternoon, after au illness of several weeks with ty? phoid fever, aged 15 years.

Clink scales, of Savan? nah Township, in this County, died from Typhoid Dysentery on Friday, the 30tb of September, aged two years and six months. The remains were interred in the cemetery at Cross Roads on last Satur? day. The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Clinkscales will regret to learn of their bereavement. The Dime Reading at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. - J. ?. Peoples on last Fri? day evening, was a most enjoyable and pleasant occasion. The programme con? sisted of readings, recitations and music by several of our most proficient residents, and the audience was most charmingly entertained throughout. The proceeds, of the evening were donated to the Bap? tist organ fund. Charleston's gala week commences on the 31st of October, and promises to eclipse anything ever undertaken by the grand old city. Reduced rates will be made by the railroads, which will be an? nounced in a few days. Those of our readers who have never visited Charles? ton should by all means go down that week. The trip wonld be more interest? ing than a trip to the Piedmont Exposi? tion. Rev. A .A. Marshall preached a grand sermon on last Sunday night, on "Moral lessons from childish sports in foreign lands."

Judge Richard Lewis, of Oconee Coun? ty, is preparing to take his magnificent horse, "Diamond," to the Atlanta Exposi? tion, where he will compete for the pre? mium against the world. "Diamond" is a thoroughbred Hamiltonian horse, sired by Red Chief, with Miss Bedford ashuf dam; He is a dark red sorrel three years old, and weighs 1200 pounds. If "Dia? mond" does not take the premium, he will, at least, be sure to attract attention as an unusually fine horse. Mr. and Mrs. Mathias Richardson have the sympathy of their many friends and neighbors, in the death of their infant son, little Charley, aged fourteen and a half months, which occurred on last Sat? urday, after a long sickness from measles followed by teething. The remains were interred in the cemetery of Lebanon Church on last Sabbath, after appropriate funeral services conducted by Rev. J. S. Murray, and attended by many of the friends and acquaintances of the parents. No establishment in upper Carolina car? ries a better arranged stock or is more thoroughly equipped than the large and popular house of Bleckley, Brown & Fret well. Their stock is immense, and com? prises everything that is needed on the farm or in the home. They are now pushing their dry goods department, which is crowded to its utmost capacity with the most beautiful goods, which are being sold at astonishingly low prices. A visit to this store, if only to inspect the stock, is interesting and amply repays the trouble incurred. Sec their new adver? tisement. Last Friday Mr. John Spearman, who lives just across the line in Bickens Coun? ty, above Pendleton, exhibited in onr office a rattle-snake bide, which was stuffed with bran. It measured four feet and four inches in length and ten inches round, and had nine rattles and one but? ton. A few weeks ago Mr. Spearman's children, while playing near the house, discovered the snake. They got out of its reach immediately, and informed their father of what they had seen. He went to it and killed it with a piece of scantling. The snake is the largest, we believe, we have ever seen in this section. Brownlee & Brown certainly have one of the neatest and best equipped grocery stores in the State. Their stock consists of fancy and family groceries, canned goods, confectioneries, fruits, cigars and tobacco, all of which have been selected with great care. Very often housekeep? ers find it difficult to get up a good meal. When they are thus troubled we advise them to visit this store, for they will find there everything that is good to eat. This firm has only been in business about a year, and in that short time has built up a fine business. Their prices please every? body. Read their new advertisement. Albert Shumate, a negro man who has been waiting around the stores and rooms in town, stole some clothing from the young men of one of the rooms upon which he had been waiting, and was arrested last week for the offence. Mayor Tolly turned the case over to the Trial Justice, who ordered Shumate committed to jail in default of bail. He got the offi? cer to take him to Miss Lizzie William's store, where he said be could secnre bail, and on arriving there, made efforts to obtain security, and failing, ran through the back of the store, and being well acquainted with the premises, got the start of the officer in charge, and made ?ood his escape. It is a good riddance of ad rubbish. We are agaiu called upon to chronicle the death of another estimable young man in the person of Mr. B. Newton Mat tison, who diel at his home near Honea Path on Wednesday morning at 2 o'clock, after an illness of about three weeks with typhoid fever. Mr. Mattison has been a resident of this city for the past three years, and at the time of his death was employed as a salesman in the store of Brown Bros. Three weeks ago he was taken ill, and at once went to his home. He was about 27 years of age, and was a young man of many virtue3, He has a host of friends in the city, and his death is deeply regretted by them. At the last session of the Legislature the law for the protection of game birds was amended so that it is illegal to kill par? tridges, doves, &c, previous to the 1st day of November. For the information of all concerned we print Section 15G4 of the Statutes relating to game birds : "It shall not be lawful for any person in this State, between the first day of April and the first day of November, in any year hereafter, to catch, kill or injure, or to pursue with snch intent, or to sell or expose for sale, any wild turkey, partridge, dove, wood? cock or pheasant, and any person found guilty thereof shall be fined not less than ten dollars, or be imprisoned not less than ten days, which fine, if imposed, shall go one-half thereof to the informer and the other half to the school fund of the county wherein the offence was committed." Lesser & Co. appear before onr] readers this week in a large and inteiesting- ad? vertisement, which every one who con? templates buying dry goods, hats, shoes, millinery goods, etc., shonld read care? fully, as it contains valuable information to them. Their store room is now crowd? ed with one of the largest and prettiest stock of goods they have ever brought to Anderson. Every department is full and complete. They handle all grades of goods, which have been marked down at prices that will please the closest buyer. They are making a specialty of ladies' fine dress goods, and we advise onr lady friends to inspect them before making their purchases elsewhere. The Messrs. Lessor have the experience and judgment, and when buying their stock know ex? actly what suits our people. Be sure to give them a call, and see their beantiful goods. A few days ago we made a trip some distance into the country. Along the roads we traveled we found that the far? mers were keeping pretty well up with their cotton, though the fields are still white, showing that the staple is.opening very fast. There is a very good late crop of cotton, and if frost will only stay ofF awhile longer, tbe yield will be increased considerably. A fine crop of fodder and hay has been gathered, and nearly every farm we passed seems to have grown a good crop of sorghum. The farmers are so busy with their cotton that not mnch preparation has yet been made for sowing small grain. In conversation with one of Anderson County's most intelligent and . prosperous farmers, he told us that bis crop of cotton would not turn out much better than last year, and that his crop Of corn on the low bottom lands was a fail? ure, yet bis upland corn was fine. He thinks there will be sufficient corn made in the County to do our farmers, and is of the opinion that the farmers generaUy are in a better condition financially than they have been in several years.' Our business engagements were such as to prevent us from attending the Pendle ton Stock Show last Tuesday, but from what we have been able to learn it was a big success. Every thing passed off qui? etly and in order, reflecting great credit upon Capt. Norris, the President of the Pendleton -Farmers' Society, and his effi? cient co-laborers. The crowd in attend? ance is said to have numbered between two and three thousand. People gathered from every direction. The display of colts is said to have been very fine- The grounds were in fine condition, the day was lovely, and every thing contributed to the success of the enterprise. Some of the largest stock farms around Pendleton were not represented, tbe stock being kept in trim for the Atlanta Exposition. The Pendleton Stock Show is destined to become the big thing for upper Sonth Carolina. Already its good effects maybe seen in the improved quality of cows and horses in Anderson County. Men who, for years, have paid no attention to stock, are now becoming ambitions to have fewer but better cattle and a finer breed of horses. We are glad President Norris and his coadjutors are receiving the encour? agement they so richly deserve. A certain young man of the city started out to call on a young lady a few even? ings since, and when he reached the front gate he found the faithful yard dog lying just on tbe inside of the yard. The young man stopped on the outside and meditated for a few minutes, and be concluded that as he bad on his best pair of pants he would not enter, as he knew if he did he would probably be forced to have the pants patched next day. He, therefore, stood on thesidewalk and hollered "hello" until he attracted the attention of the "old man," who came out and escorted him in. Another young man of the city went into the country recently to see a lady friend. When he reached the house he went in and knocked, but found that the occu? pants were absent. His loud rapping on the door attracted the attention of the yard dog, which came up to the front steps and eyed the young man rather closely, and then lay down in the walk. The young man says he wasn't frightened a bit, but rather than run the risk of having bis breeches torn, he sat down in a com? fortable rocking-chair on the piazza, and, lighting a cigar, spent an hour very lone? ly, trying to make friends with the dog, which after awhile got up and walked away. The young man then left and went on ihe hunt of the young lady, whom he soon found, but of course did not tell, her his experience with the dog. Both of these young men are very reticent about the above, but we have managed to get hold of it, and it is too good to keep. They both vow, however, that they are not afraid of dogs. Farmers' Convention. In pursuance of the call for the meeting of tbe farmers of Anderson County to elect delegates to the State Farmers' Conven? tion, a number of the prominent and in? fluential farmers of the County met in the Court House on last Monday, and was called to order by Col. D. K. Norris, the President of the Convention, who made a thoughtful and earnest address upon the condition and needs of the farmers of the State, and the importance and prospects of success of the pending farmers' movement in this State. Col. Joshua Jameson was requested to act as Secretary of the meeting, and on motion of Maj. T. H. Russell Col. D. K. Norris was re-elected President of the Con? vention. He declined the position, but was unanimously re-elected, notwithstand? ing his declination, and thereupon an? nounced that he could not, under the cir? cumstances, do otherwise than serve. The election of delegates to the State Convention resulted in the selection of the following gentlemen, to wit: D. K. Norris, J. Belton Watson, J. M. Glenn, John C. Watkins and Joel T. Rice, with Messrs. W. A. Neal, M. B. Richardson, E. P. Earle. W- E- Walters and R. P. Clink scales as alternates. Messrs. W. A. Goer, N. T. Richardson and J. A. Hall acted as tellers in tins election, which was conduct? ed by ballot. Hon. J. Belton Watson offered the fol lowipg resolutions, which were adopted by the meeting without dissent: Resolved, That an Agricultural College, separate and apart from the South Carolina College, is a necessity to the farming ele? ment of the State, and should be no longer postponod. Resolved, That a reorganization of the Bureau of Agriculture is demanded by the interest of the farmers, and that its man? agement be put into the hands of practical agriculturists. Resolved, That the delegation from this Convention be charged with the duty of presenting these resolutions to the Far? mers' Association to be held in Columbia in December next, and that action be then taken on them. After addresses from Messrs. Watson and Simpson, the Convention adjourned. Circuit Court. The Court of General sessions for this County convened on last Monday with his Honor Judge Pressley presiding, and Col. J. L. Orr representing the Stale. The Judge charged the Grand Jury con? cisely and pointedly as to their duties for the term, and the Solicitor gave a number of bills of indictment to the Grand Jury, upon which tho following results were reached: The State vs.; John Teasley. Fcrgery. Plead Guilty. Sentenced to one year in penitentiary. ' The State vs. Wm. Freeman. Grand Larceny. Plead Guilty. Sentenced to two years in penitentiary. The State vs. John L. Mooro.

The State vs. Mike Garner. Assault of high and aggravated nature. No bill. The State vs. Miles Hunter. Assault with concealed weapon. No bill. The Grand Jury submitted the follow? ing presentment to the Court: To the Honorable B. C. Presshj, Presiding Judge : The Grand Jury beg leave to report that they have passed upon all bills of indict? ment given out by the Solicitor, and have otherwise discharged their duties. We are gratified to be able to state a general improvement in the conditon of the public highways, and are satisfied that the new road law is being enforced in most sections of the County, but complaints have been made to us in reference to the roads in some sections. Prominent among these is one referring to part of the road leading from Town Creek to J. Belton Watson's ; another is the road from Doo ley's Ferry to Abbeville, which we are informed is impassable. Complaint has also been made that on the Shallow Ford Road, near Mrs, Martha Watson's, a fence has been built so as to endanger life and property. We are informed that the County Commissioners have been request? ed to have said fence removed, and that it has not been done, and prominent citizens have, by their memorial, called our atten? tion to the matter. We, therefore, recom? mend that the County Commissioners see that the law be enforced throughout the County. We have received a communication from certain citizens in Garzin Township, on and near Twenty-Three Mile Creek, call? ing our attention to the obstructions in said creek from Dickson's to Passmore's Bridge, the overflows caused thereby, and the sickness resulting therefrom. We ap? pend the communication to our report, and recommend tbat it be referred to the County Commissioners to take such steps in tbe matter as the law requires. At the last Term of Court a report was made by the Grand Jury as to the condi? tion of the public offices of the County. Since then the bonds of the various Coun? ty offices have been examined by a com? mittee of the Grand Jury, and we now re? port the bonds as being entirely satisfac? tory to us. The Grand Jury are entirely satisfied with the present management of the Poor House and Farm. The County Jail has been visited by a committee, and the same was found in good condition, and the comfort and welfare of the inmates care? fully looked after by the Sheriff. We would recommend that the Court room be supplied with needed furniture, and the Jury rooms supplied with comfor? table seats and tables for the use and con? venience of jurymen. Quite a number of Trial Justices in the County have brought their dockets for in? spection, as required by law, but there are sev eral who have not done so. We would recommend that the necessity of so doing, in some way, be brought to their attention. In making this, our last, Presentment, we acknowledge our gratit i to the So? licitor and the officers of the Court for their uniform courtesy and kindness to us during the present year, and to his Honor, the Presiding Judge, at this Term of the Court. J. C. Watkins, Foreman. On Tuesday at twelve o'clock the Court of General sessions adjourned. The Court of Common Pleas was opened on Wednesday morning, and Judge Press ley is dispatching the business of tbe term with his accustomed ability and celerity. The term will probably be concluded some time next week. Denver Items. Cotton has been opening so fast during the last three or four weeks that tbe far? mers have been kept pretty busy picking it out to tho exclusion of almost any other farm work. Some few have commenced sowing oats and gathering corn, and soon corn-shuckings will be in order. Saturday night, October 1st., Mr. S. L. Eskew gave a musical sociable, which was well attended. Miss Mattie Eskew, an ac? complished organist, and Mr. R. H. Rus? sell, an expert violinist, furnished the music for the occasion, which was greatly appreciated by those present. The Stockholders of Denver Academy have secured the services of Miss Carrie C. Watkins as teacher for another term. They also intend building a more com? fortable school-house at a more convenient location. Mr. F. E. Hackett, formerly of this County, but now an employee of the Western North Carolina Railroad, is vis? iting relatives near here. Mr. A. B. Bowden, the champion water? melon raiser in this section, continues to bring in some very fine melons, notwith? standing the lateness of the season. Mr. T. H. Burriss came very near re? ceiving a severe injury by having his right hand caught in the belting of his gin and carried round the pulley. Fortu? nately he escaped with only a severe sprain of tho wrist and fingers. Jay. Houses to Rent, John E. Peoples has three nice Dwell? ing Houses to rent.

Winnsbobo, 8. OY, February 14,1880. Messrs. Westmoreland Bros., Greenville, S. C.: During the summer and fall of last year I was suffering with nervous dyspep? sia, which was followed by general debility and extreme nervous prostration. I was treated by one of our most eminent physi? cians without any perceptible relief; finally he advised me to try your Calisaya Tonic, which I did, and from the first I took commenced improving, and am hap? py to say that I am entirely relieved by the use of the Tonic, and gaining my former strength and flesh very rapidly. Very, respectfully. JOHN P. MATTHEWS, Ja. Use Dr. Dukes' Anti-Bilious Wafers in connection with the Tonic if your liver is out of order. Wilhite & Wilhite, wholesale agents. Sr. Guna's iv?r Pills.

I had been troublod all Winter with oold and pain in the chest and got no relief from remedies reccommended by Druggists and Physicians. At the same time I was adver? tising Dr. - Boeanko's Cough and Lung Syrup. I had little faith but thought to try it as a last resort, now I believe even more than they tell me of its curative qual? ities. [From the News, Elizabeth town, Ky. j Sold by Orr & Sloan.
