Our informant was mistaken as to the time. Next Wednesday night, 17th inst., is the appointed time for the service. Editor Magill, of the Hartwell Sun, "hits the nail square on the head" when be says: "We would rather be a wart on a yaller dog's left hind leg? than to be a pessimistic croaker that can never see good in any progressive enterprise or measure." The average girl is now engaged in the manufacture of slipper-patterns and whisk-broom holders, which she will ex? change on December 25 for tortoise-shell fans, diamond ear-rings, and the like. The average girl has a good head for busi iness, after all. Salesday in November is always a big day, and last Monday was no exception to the rale. The crowd in the city was very large, bat everything passed off quietly. With the exception of one or two tracts, the land offered for sale brought very low prices. Our clever young bachelor friend, F. T. W?hlte, has given np the idea of marry? ing this fall, and has rented his house, on McDoffie street, to Mr. A. W. Adams. Next year is Leap Year, and we believe if the girls will "play their cards" right, some one of them may capture Frank. The Rock Hill Herald says: ''Messrs. J H. Whitner and J. T.

List of letters remaining in the Post office for the week ending November 9th : J. S. Brown, Miss Clara Charput, B. J. Dickson, 8. B. Holt, Miss Florence Hicks, Miss Alice Johnson, Bess Johnson, Miss Jnlia Lewis, Miss Sarah McClennon, J. H. Rainey, Charles Rudd, P. C Sowot, J. W. M. Williams. Jhone Williams, Mrs. Rosa Sondley, Mrs. Belzora Stevenson, Rev. L. Whiteside. The merchants and business men gen? erally of Anderson have unanimously agreed to close their respective places of business on Thursday, 24th day of No? vember, to observe Thanksgiving Day. Therefore, there will be no business transected in the city on that- day. Our friends in the country shonld bear this in mind, and not bring any cotton or other produce to the city on that day. The Edge?eld Monitor pleads thus: "We have a considerable subscription list, and there are very few men on it who do not no w owe us for one year. Many of them owe us for two year j, and some for three. In the stringent times of the past twelve months, our manhood and gentil ityhave forbidden us to trouble any of oar subscribers. At present the matter is different. Money is tolerably plentiful. And now the manhood and gentility should be on the other side- And it will be. We feel that we need say no more." We desire every reader of the Intelli gencer to read carefully the new adver? tisement of McCally, Cathcart <fc Co., as it contains information for the general pub? lic. These gentlemen have in store one of the largest stocks of general merchandise they have ever brought to this market, and if you will carefully inspect their goods you will find that they are selling them at remarkably low prices. They are agents for the sale of the Barbour cot? ton seed and grain crusher, one of which every farmer in the County should have. Go and examine it. Those of onr citizens who visited Charleston last week speak in the highest terms of the grand old city, and the way she treated her "country cousins." The programme for the entertainment of vis? itors was carried out fally, and was ex? ceedingly interesting. While the crowd was large, ample accommodations were had for all, anfrno exorbitant prices were charged. Charleston has done herself credit, as we knew she would do, and we feel safe in saying that if she repeats her "Gala Week" next year, every one who went this year will go back again and in? duce others to go with them. We notice that Brother Sims, of the Orangeburg Times md Democrat, assisted by the noble and patriotic ladies of his town, is using every effort to erect a monument to the memory of the Confed ?ate dead of Orangeburg County, and that his efforts are about to be crowned with success, a good sum having already been secured for the purpose. It is a grand, noble undertaking, and is worthy of imitation by every County in the State? Can't Anderson County erect a monument to the memory of her sons who died for the "Lost Cause V Suppose some of our ladies take hold of the matter. The In? telligencer will assist and serve them in every way possible. The Greenville Enterprise and 3lountain eer, of last week, says: "Dr. R. Furman Divver, of Anderson, will establish a new machine shop in this city about the first of the coming year. Dr. Divver is a former citizen of Greenville, having left here some fifteen or sixteen years ago. He has the reputation of being an expe? rienced machinist, and was Superinten? dent of the workshops of tho Greenville aud Columbia Railroad at Helena, during the presidency of Col. H. P. Hammett. We will welcome his return to our midst." ! We asked the Doctor if the above state? ment was correct, and he replied that he was thinking over the matter, but had not fully made up his mind. We would regret to see the Doctor leave Anderson. When Mr. and Mrs. Rufus Fant re? turned home from Church last Sunday night they discovered upon entering the house that a burglar had been inside du? ring their absence. Mr. Fant, upon leav? ing home, had extinguished the lamp and sat it upon a table near the door. When he returned, the chimney was standing on the table, but the lamp was turned over on the floor and the oil running out. An investigation of the house and premises was at once made, bat nothing was missed therefrom. A brick bat was found upon the floor, and a dish pan, which had been left in tho dining-room, was foand in the yard. The thief, it is supposed, entered the house through a window, as a box had been pulled out from under the house im? mediately under the window. The burg? lar was evidently frightened away by some one passing along the street, and did not have time to secure any booty. Our ottice was honored with a visit last Monday morning from our highly esteem? ed friend, Col. W. S. Fickons, of Brushy Creek Township. Anderson County has few such citizens as Col. Pickens. He has been a tiller of the soil all his life, having gathered forty-three crops, during which time he has made only thirteen bales of cotton. He has made small grain and corn a specialty, and has never purchased a pound of bacon. He produces almost everything he consumes on his plantation, and his success proves that his plan is the correct one. While he is in comfortable circumstances, had it not been for the misfortunes of the war, he would to-day have been one of our wealthiest citizens. The Colonel is full of life and an intelli? gent gentleman, and it is a real pleasure to listen to him talk. Death has invaded another happy home of Andersou County and removed there? from a devoted wife and a loving mother, in the person of Mrs. Susan Norris, wife of Col. J. W. Norris. Her death occurred last Sunday morning at G o'clock, and though not unexpected, it has brought sorrow to a wide circle of friends and ac? quaintances. 4 Mrs. Norris had been in feeble'healtk for some time past, and for the last few weeks was a great sufferer, but she bore her sufferings with that pa? tience characteristic of a true Christian woman, and when the summons came she .was prepared to meet it. She was truly a j good woman, and was held in high es- j teem by her many friends, who will long cherish her memory. She was about G2 yf.ars of ago, and had been for years a faithful and consistent member of the Presbyterian Church. Her remains were interred in the graveyard at Roberts Church on Wednesday, the funeral servi? ces being conducted by Rev. D. E. Frier son, D. D. Tho Postmasters' Convenlon. According to announcement, a conven? tion of the 3rd and 4th class Postmasters of the Third Congressional District con? vened in this city last Friday evening. The convention, though small, was full of interest. Mr. C. W. Webb, of Anderson, was called to the chair, and Mr. A. N. Todd, of Belton, requested to act as Secretary. A series of resolutions, introduced by Maj. T. H. Russell, setting forth a plan of | organization and other matters pertaining to the objects of the Convention, were discussed and adopted, after which the convention was permanently organized by electing the following officers: Pres? ident, C. W. Webb, of Anderson; 1st Vice-President, A. W. Hudgens, of Easloy; 2nd Vice President, W. E. Cothran, of McCormick; 3rd Vice-President, T. JE. Stribling, of Walhalla; 4th Vice-Presi? dent, L. S. Bowers, of Prosperity ; Secre? tary and Treasurer, A. N. Todd, of Belton ; Executive Committee, C. W. Webb, T. H. Russell, A. W. Hudgens, A. B. Carpenter, H. B. Zimmerman and J. W. Norris. The following delegates were elected to the National Convention : J. W. Norris, J. S. Cothran, jr., G. W. Greer, T. H. Russell and T. C. Lites. J. W. Norris and C. W. Webb were ap? pointed to prepare a memorial to Congress asking that the compensation of 4th class Postmasters be increased. The President and Secretary were in? structed to issue a call to the Postmasters of the District asking them to contribute a sum sufficient to defray the expenses of at least two delegates to the National Convention. After some remarks by several of the Postmasters, tho convention adjourned to meet at the call of tho Executive Com? mittee. Townville Notes. Mr. D. H. Russell began bis school here last Monday. Mr. .T, L. McCarley represented the Presbyterian Church in Synod at Darling? ton last week. Rev. J. Scott Murray preached a mas? terly sermon in the Baptist Church last week. Mr. J. A.

Wool bright, a worthy young man, left this week for California. Messrs. Sharp & Ledbetter have painted their large store-room and hall, thereby adding to the town's attractions. Rev. J. Walter Dickson has remodelled and otherwise improved his residence near town to such extent as makes it one of the most convenient and handsome homes in the Fork. 1 Cherokee Items. In our former communication we neg? lected to say anything in regard to our section. We are in a fine farming coun? try, between East and West Cherokee Creeks. The friends of Mr. Green Taylor, who has been quite ill for several weeks with pneumonia, will be glad to know he is improving. ; Mr. W. J. King carried 1200 pounds of seed cotton to Mr. J. P. Haynie's gin, and it yielded him 500 pounds of lint. It was of the Peterkiu variety. It would pay us all, brother farmers, to plant the Peterkin seed. If rumor is correct, our Noai's Creek correspondent will soon lose one of his best young ladies. It is a pleasure to ride over that section of the public road leading from Belton to Storeville, which is under the manage? ment of Mr. Newt. Willingham. He works it strictly according to law, and is the right man in the right place. We need more such Overseers. Cherokee had one representative in Charleston last week in the person of Prof. Charles Kay, Cherokee. A Suggestion. Mr. Editor : As a taxpayer I may be pardoned for saying I have always taken a lively interest in whatever affects the welfare of our County. I am an advocate of substantial improvements. I boliove the truo secret of economy in the conduct of tho County's affairs is found therein, In the matter of the construction of costly bridges, for instance, I believe the streams where the principal currents of travel cross, these should be bridged first, and as tho County grows richer in reve? nue, attention could be given to local claims. Without meaning to criticise our Coun? ty Commissioners, or the communities di? rectly concorued or benefitod, I may say I never favored the idea of locating the iron bridge at Sloan's Forry, which was haplessly destroyed' by tho late freshet. The advisability of its reconstruction at this time, when the County is forced to such heavy expense to repair the damages caused by the freshet, is a matter of seri? ous concern. Our Commissioners should, it seems to me, rebuild only such bridges as are indispensable; and the fact that tho bridge at Sloan's Ferry can be dispensed with is an argument, in sonio sense, against the wisdom of its erection at that point at the outset. I would suggest that such portions of tho bridge as were saved from tho wreck be placed under a shed, and rebuilt on tho substantial stone piers of Earle'a Bridge when the superstructure again becomes unsafe, and the County would thon have a bridgo which would with? stand tho severest tests.

All in search of good Goods and honestj bargains should visit tho NEW YORK CASH STORE. The Xexl Great Sensation. New York is .soon to be treated to some experiments in flying machines. A company of sober and practical men claim that they have solved the problem of aerial locomotion, and they intend to give exhibitions of their machine at the American institute fair, now in session. The flying macbinos I speak of are to be propelled by electricity. What the fabric is built of, or what its plan of con? struction is I do not know. Ah, if we could but produce aluminum easily and cheaply, that would settle the business at once! This is perhaps the grandest "if that bi.flles science to day. Here is a metal as strong as steel and light as wood, and filling the world with its abundance, and yet nobody can resolve, it save at an expense which deprives it of commercial usefulness. The largest block of it in the world, I believe, is the triangular cap which crowns the apex of the Washington monument. I am told that there are more inventors at work on this aluminum puzzle than on almost any other. Every few weeks we hear a shout of "Eureka!" but somehow the metal remains as scarce and costly as before. I could tell a very pretty romance of aluminum if I wished, but I don't. But the greatest romance of all will be the actual discovery of the way to get it out of its sulks into the service of man. That done, and we shall soon be flying through the air, and doing about as we please with nature generally. ?Boston Advertiser. ? Smokers will be interested to know that not a thousand miles from Albany there is a firm which makes large quanti? ties of paper for smoking purposes. The plan of operation is said to be this: The paper, on reaching the tobacco ware? house, is repeatedly soaked in a strong decoction of the plant. It is then cut up and pressed in moulds which give to each sheet the venation of the genuine leaf tobacco. So close is the imitation that expert tobacco men and habitual smokers have been deceived. At a recent gather? ing in this city cigars made from this paper tobacco were passed around and de? clared excellent. Many of those present declared the cigars were made from rare brands, and so well was the imitation carried out that one man actually insisted that there could be no mistake about the cigars being genuine tobacco.?Albany Express. ? An attempt was made last Thursday night near Yorkville to wreck the north bouud passenger train on the Chester & Lenoir railroad, which is operated by the Richmond & Danville. An iron rail was fastened across the track near the point where the train goes on a high trestle. The engine, fortunately, knocked the obstruction off without sustaining any damage. Bats! Hats! Hast!
