Up to Monday night two hundred and thirty-five tickets had been sold at the C. & G. depot to Atlanta. Of this number( eighty-three tickets were sold Monday afternoon, and when the train arrived here there was scarcely standing room .on it. However, with the exception of two or three ladies, the crowd managed to get on, but they were packed almost like sar? dines in a box. The Atlanta Constitution, of the 13th ins t., in speaking of the stock exhibit at the Ex? position, says: "Several Hambletonians from the J. E. Lewis stable of Pendleton, S. C, which is represented on the grounds, were Bold yesterday to R. M. Hackney, of Newnan, Ga. The horses sold were: Logan, eighteen months old, for $500; Fairy, two years old, for $500; and an un? named six months old colt for $200. The Intelligencer was favored with a call last Monday from Mr. J. W. Tilling* hast, who is a compositor in the Daily Reg? ister office, Mobile, Ala. Mr. Tillinghast h a brother of Mrs. R. M. Burrise, who resides near the city, and is on a visit to her and other relatives. He is a native of Anderson County, and is a very pleasant gentleman. He was on a visit here ten years ago, and thinks Anderson has im? proved considerably within that time. The railroad rates to Charleston during the Gala Week have been published, and are as follows from points in this County: Pendleton, $5.40; Anderson, $5.20; Wil liamslon, $5.20; Belton, $5.00; Honea Path, $4.80. The tickets will be on sale on October 31st, November 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th, good to return until November 7th. These rates are low enough, and should ensure a large crowd of visitors to Charles? ton. An interesting programme has been arranged for the entertainment of visitors, and those who go will have a most enjoy? able trip. A few days ago Mr. J. H. Hutchison discovered four large and peculiar look? ing bugs nnder an old log near his house, j He brought tham to the city and exhibit-1 ed them, but he met no one who ever saw anything like them. The males have two large horns protruding from their heads, one from the under Bide and the other from the upper side, forming, when closed, almost an arch. In color they resemble a cotton boll j ast before it is fully ma? tured. Mr. Hutchison has left the bugs with us, and we are endeavoring to make pets of them. Mrs. Sallle Jones, wife of Mr. W. M. Jones, of Brushy Creek Township, died Friday, 14th lost., in the 45th year of her age. She had been ill about three weeks with fever. Mrs. Jones was the mother of five children and the step-mother of five, all of whom seemed to be devoted to her and she to them. She had been a faithful member of the Baptist Church for thirty-five years, and adorned the profess? ion by a Godly walk. She was a devoted [ wife- and mother ami a kind neighbor, ever ready to minister unto the wants of the sick and needy. Iler remains were interred at Pisgah on Saturday. Mrs. Sarah J. Moorhead departed this life at the residence of her husband, Mr. John M. Moorhead, in Centerville Town-, ship, on last Friday night, after an illness of three weeks from typhoid malarial fever. She was an energetic, thorough? going and excellent woman, whose death is a loss to the community in which she lived. Mrs. Moorhead waB a member of the Concord Associate Reformed Church for many years, and was a pious and faithful Christian. Her remains were interred in the Concord cemetery on Saturday, after appropriate funeral ser? vices conducted by Rev. D. E. Frierson, DD. She leaves a husband and three children, who have the sympathy of a host of friends in their bereavement. Late Tuesday evening the telegraph brought the sad news to Anderson that Mr. Oscar J. Moore, eldest son of Maj. John B. Moore, had died that morning at the home of his parents in Colusa, Cal., of typhoid fever. The news was a great shock to Mr. Moore's friends in this city, for be had left here, hale and hearty, on the 15th of last month, to join his parents in California. It is supposed that he was stricken down with the fever shortly after his arrival at his new home. Mr. Moore was about 27 years of age, and was a noble, upright young man. He was born and reared in Anderson, and since his youth had been a member of the Presbyterian Church of this city. We and our young friend were school boys together, and it is certainly a very sad duty for us to chron cle the fact that he has been cut down in his early manhood, just when life seemed full of its brightest charms. Death has again invaded the ranks of the young men of Anderson, and borne away another estimable young man. Seven or eight weeks ago Mr. William E. Mattox was attacked with fever, and he at once went to the home of his father, Mr. John P. Mattox, five miles east of the city. He received every attention thai; loving hands and medical skill could give, but all in vain. He lingered until 11 o'clock Tuesday night, when he quietly passed away. Mr. Mattox was about 25 years of age. When he was taken sick he was engaged, as a salesman in Mr. D. S. Taylor's store. He was a fine specimen of young manhood, and a young man of good habits and pleasant manners. His death is a sad blow no his parents, who have the deepest sympathy of their friends in their bereavement. His remains were interred at Neat's Creek Church on Wednesday afternoon, Rev. W. H. King conducting the funeral services. A Terrible Accident. The Greenville News, of Wednesday morning, gives the folIowing particular3 of a vcy sad accident, which occurred at Belton on Tuesday afternoon : Passengers on the afternoon train on the Columbia & Greenville road yesterday, reported a serious accident to an old lady at Belton. Just as the train was nearing a crossing a short distance below the depot at Belton, Engineer Nicely saw an old lady start across the track. The train was be? hind time and making good speed, but she had plenty of time to get across. In the middle of the track, however, she stopped and looked up towards the depot, as if un? conscious of the train thundering on from the opposite direction. The genineer blew his whistle and attempted to stop the train. There was still time for the old lady to cross, but instead of stepping forward out of the way, .in the fright of the moment, she attempted to retrace her steps. In a moment, the engine struck her and threw her violently aside into the ditch. It was learned after? wards that the old lady was Mrs. Agnew, the mother of Capt. G. W. McGee, of Bel? ton, She is 88 years old, and while the exact extent of her iujuries was not learn? ed, tbey were considered very serious, if not fatal. No blame was attached to the engineer, as ho could not have avoided the accident A telegram was received in the city Wednesday morning, stating that Mrs. Agnew had died during the night. She was a most estimable lady, and her many friends throughout the County will be pained to learn of the sad and unfortunate ending of her life. An IIcues ; Man. In 1872, when cotton was worth from 18 to 20 cents per pound, Mr. Jonathan Pick? erel, one of the Fork's best citizens, brought several bales into the city one day. After trying the market for some time, he finally Bold to that clever old merchant, Mr. John B. Watson, who was then doing business on Granite Row. The book-keeper made out Mr. Pickerel's bill, settled with him, and, after buying what goods he wanted, he left for home. It was an evory-dajy transaction, and, of course, nothing more was ever thought of it. Not long since Mr. Pickerel had occa? sion to look through his "old papers," and while doing so, came across the cotton bill referred to above. The first thing that at? tracted his attention about the bill was the great difference iu the price of cotton then and now, and while noting what amount be had received for a bale, he discovered that the byok-keeper had made an error of $12.25 in the calculation. He could not believe it, and again and again he went over the calculation, but each time proved that a mistake of $12.25 had been made, and that Mr. Watson had paid him that much more than he was entitled to. Mr. Pickerel is quite an old gentleman, and does not visit the city often, but he re? solved the next time he came here he would bunt up Mr. Walson, show him the error and refund the money to him. Recently he has visited the city twice to see Mr. Watson, but each time he failed to see bim. Last week he again came to the city, and, going to Mr. Watson's store, on Brick Range, found that gentleman, showed him the error and refunded the money. Such instances as this are rare, but to those who know Mr. Pickerel his conduct will be no surprise. Such men are worthy examples to follow. Georgia Thieves. Monday morning about 10 o'clock two negro men drove up to the C. & G. depot with a bale of cotton on a one-horse wagon. They at once unloaded the cotton to the platform. Mr. F. G. Brown, one of Bleckley, Brown & FretwelPs salesmen, was engaged in marking cotton near by. One of the negroes approached Mr. Brown and asked him if he would buy the cot? ton. Mr. Brown replied that he would, and made a bid on the cotton, and to his astonishment the negro told him he could have it. This action on the *part of the negro at once aroused Mr. Brown's suspi? cions, and he began questioning him as to where he lived, if the cotton belonged to him, etc. The negro replied that the cot? ton was his own, that he resided on Mrs. McGee's plantation in the County, and that his name was Bill Patterson. The cotton was weighed, and the negro came up to the store to get his money. Before settling with him, Mr. Brown decided to make some inquiry about- him. In the meantime the negro seemed very restless, and was very anxious to get his money and get off. Mr. Brown could find out nothing about him, and upon questioning him again, the negro stated that the cotton belonged to some one in Hart County, Ga., and that he had been sent bere to sell it. Upon hearing this, Mr. Brown was satisfied that there was something wrong about the cotton, and he determined to have both the negroes arrested to await investigation. Alderman Jones, who was standing near by, was requested to blow his police whistle, and as he did so Patter? son's companion took to his heels and fled down the street Patterson also made an attempt to run, but was captured and turned over to an officer. An officer and a number of men and boys followed the fleeing negro, but he succeeded in dodging them. A lultor was soul tu LTurtwell im? mediately in reforeuce to tho negro, aud on Tuesday morning a telegram in reply was received requesting that ho bo hold until nil oflicor could reach here. On Tuesday afternoon tho officer ar? rived, and brought the information that the negroes had not only stolen the cot? ton, but also the mule and wagon which they were driving. The cotton was stolen from Mr. B, Herring, the mule from Mr. J. H. Hodges, and tbe wagon from Mr. J. P. Hix, all of whom reside near Hartwell. The truo names of tbe negroes are Isbam Patterson and Jim Benson. Patterson agreed to return to Georgia at onco with tbe officer. Benson, who escaped, is said to have crossed the River at Holland's Ferry Tuesday morning on his way back to Georgia, and no doubt he, too, is now in lirabo. Denver Iterm. News is scarce and Items are hard to find. We had the pleasure of a few minutes' conversation with Mr. J. P. Riley as he passed on his way to visit friends and rel? atives in the County. Mr. Riley was raised in Anderson County, but has adopted Florida as bis home. He is en? gaged in business in Leesburg, and is looking like the climate is congenial to his health. Mrs. Caroline Lindsay, formerly of this County but now of Jackson County, Ga., is paying her annual visit to her numer? ous relatives and friends in Anderson County. We are glad to learn that Mr. Mat. Mor? ris, who has been quite sick for some time past, has so far recovered as to be able to be about to a limited extent again. We hope for his entire recovery soon. Fatima Waters died near here on the 15th inst., and was laid to rest the day fol? lowing at old Salem graveyard. This place can boast of excellent water. Capt. Billy Smith gets a keg full every morning to send to Master Machinist Green at Columbia. At the solicitations of different parties, Mr. S. L. Eskew, who ownes land on both sides of the railroad, has consented to have lots laid out for sale; consequently Mr. J. C. Watkins, surveyor, was down recently and laid off some very desirable lots. Speculation is rife as to whether the new road law will be enforced to the letter as regards width and time of working. Numbers of roads in the County are so narrow as to prevent vehicles passing each other without going outside the road. One great drawback to good roads is care? less and incompetent overseers, who take no pride in their road, and whose aim is to "put in time," regardless of how the road looks or lasts after they are clear of it. Ditches should be made straight where practicable, or, if necessary to make a ditch otherwise than straight, the curves should be graded, and no short zig-zag turns allowed. Some ditches in the County are as crooked and uncertain as pig tracks in snow. Jay. Craytonvllle Items. ' The Almighty continues to diffuse lav? ishly his blessing on the people of this section. The health was never better at this season; and more propitious weather for gathering crops could not be asked for. We should be thankful that we are blessed with even as good crops as we are; while last year we had scarcely a good crop of any one article. The cotton crop is turning out much better than was antici? pated in September; and is yet rapidly opening, which makes the farmers hope? ful of coming out with something ahead. The latest craze in the way of a cotton harvester is as follows: Tho green bolls are to be gathered and run through a machine prepared for tbe purpose of tak? ing off the old calyx which remains on the bolls, and then the bolls are to be put on a clean yard for the sunshine to open. After they have opened, they are to be put through a machine for separating the burr from tbe fibre. Vox. A Card of Thanks. WiLLiAMSToif, S. C, October 17. Mb.
