Tho.CbUon Plant the only Btrictly agri? cultural paper printed in South Carolina, has been adopted as the official organ of the Farmers' Alliance of this State. It is printed in Greenville, by Hoyt & Keys, at the low price of one dollar a year, and is an excellent paper, well deserving the liberal-support of the farmers of the State. ; '? ????? - President Cleveland's letter of accep? tance was given to the Associated Press in Washington on last Sunday night, and our sprightly little neighbor, the Green vLlle News', issuod an extra edition Mon? day morning containing the letter in full. This was was quite enterprising on the part of our neighbor and was highly ap? preciated by its readers throughout the Piedmont section. We have neglected heretofore to men? tion the e'ec-tiou of the new officers ef the the Andeeson Fire Department, " The. Companies held an election several weeks ago, and resulted as follows: Chief, Thos. F. Hill; Assistant Chief, C. F. Jones; Secretary and Treasurer, C. S. Snllivan.

Hubbard & Bro. The senior member of this firm has just re? turned from the North, where he has purchased the largest stock of jewelry, -watches,.clocks, silverware, china ware, etc., that has ever been brought to An? derson. These goods are arriving daily, and it-is a treat to visit their store and see them. Few cities in the South can boast of auch an establishment, as these gentle? men own. There was a case of robbery in the city last Tuesday afternoon, near the Savan? nah Valley depot. Two negro boys by force took from. Mr. T. D. Sloan's little hoy, aged about 12 years, a satchel contain? ing $10,00. They were soon captured by Policemen McGruder and the money re? covered. The case was settled Tuesday by a colored parson of the. city taking the boys from the'calaboose and giving them about forty lashes. This was probably the best settlement that could have been made of the case. We invite yonr attention to the adver? tisement of Messrs. Cunningham Bros., which appears' elsewhere. These gentle? men are daily receiving their stock of fall and winter dry goods, boots, shoes, hats, groceries, etc., which they are determined to sell, and they will make it to the inter? est of every one of our readers to call and inspect these goods. This is oneofonr most reliable firms, and persons trading with them may rest assured -of always getting the full value of their money. Yesterday frank Chester was tried before Trial Justice Wardlaw for rescuing a calf .that had been impounded while trespass? ing. The judgment was guilty andVa fine of five dollars, the least fine allowable, im? posed. It would be well for this to he remembered, that it is a misdemeanor to take stock from the possesion of one who has captured them while trespassing on his property. The law directs the course of proceedure, and it should be followed out. The calf in this case was not worth more than a dollar or two. The law must be respected.

The Greenville News, of last Thursday, says: "A photograph of the running team of the Pioneer Hook and Ladder Company, of Anderson, handsomely framed and let? tered, has bpen presented to the Pioneer Hook and Ladder Company, of this city. The team pictured is the one that captured the first prize in the truck contest at the Anderson Tournament last Spring, the Greenville Pioneers taking second prize. The presentation of the picture is very much appreciated by the Greenville truck men, who are always on the best of terms with the Anderson comrades, and who en? joyed immensely their trip to the Ander? son Tournament. The picture will be hung in the hall of the Pioneer Company." We started to Columbia last Thursday, but owing to several washouts between Chappels and Newberry we did not get farther than the former place, where we spent five or six very long hours, when our train was ordered to return to Green? ville. There were about twenty-five pas? sengers on the train, which v/as in charge of Conductor'Hughes, who, by his pleas? ant disposition; did everything possible for: the comfort of all. 'He certainly im? pressed all the passengers as being a most congenial and agreeable conductor. Chap pels is rather a deserted-looking place. There are several stores there, but no one resides in the town. For a time it . seemed that our train would have to remain there for a day or two, and with no place to sleep or to get anything to eat, ! bur anticipations were not so' pleasant: '.About dark-Conductor Hnghes received orders to return to Greenville. Most of the pa&senyera came back to Ninety-Six and Greenwood, and several to Greenville. Wo came back to Belton, where we spent a few hours, and came home next morning on the- freight train. We hope not to have another similar day's experience. Mrs. Rachel McFall died at the home of her son, Mr. W. A. McFall, in thiB County last Saturday morning after a very brief illness, Mrs. McFall had reached the ripe old age of sg years, and had been quite feeble for the past three years, but was not confined to her bed only a few hoars before her death. She was the relict of the late Andrew McFall, and was well known throughout the County. She has resided in our midst all her life, and she has a host of friends and relatives throughout the County who will regret to hear of her death, for she was highly es teemed by every acquaintance. Mrs. McFall was from the days of her girlhood a faithful and zealous member of the Presbyterian Church, and always illus? trated the virtues of a Christian woman? hood. ? Amiable and' devoted in her do? mestic relations, she was the light, the comfort and the joy of a happy home. She was always kind, cheerful and chari? table, and ever ready to assist the poor and the distressed. Her remains were laid to rest in the Presbyterian cemetery, in this city, on Sunday afternoon, Dr. Frierson conducting the funeral services. Her loved ones weep not as those without hope, for they know that their loss has been her eternal gain.- - The Work of the Bains. Anderson Connty has been wet for the last two weeks beyond all questioning. There were about two weeks that we did not have "an unclouded" day. Every stream has been full to overflowing, and along Deep Creek and Seneca River im? mense damage has been done to the corn crop. Mr. Duck Bolt has lost about 2,000 bushels of corn. Messrs. Robert Martin, Thomas Shearer and others have also lost heavily. Our public roads have been washed very much, and those that were fresh worked are left in worse fix than be? fore they were worked. The railroads in this section have been washed and so injured that'no mails have oome for several days, except from toward Atlanta, Ga. There has been no-train over the Savannah Valley Railroad since Monday. The train which left Anderson that day is between two washouts, near Little River, and consequently unable to move out either way, It is not jet known when the trains will begin to run on this road. There has been but one through train to Columbia over the C. & G. RR. since "Wednesday of last week. There are several washout? on the road, and the trestle over Ninety-Six Creek is washed away. It ? is 'impossible to ascertain just where and what the damages are. The telegraph wires on both roads are down. As will be seen, from another column, Augusta, Ga., is under water. We have been unable to get full accounts of the result of the rains, owing to the failure of the mails. It is safe to say we have had the greatest rain-fall overseen here in two weeks. Craytonvlllo Items. Owing to the incessant rains of late, the business on the farm has entirely stopped. Considerable damage has already been done to early cotton,-and in some sections, bridges have been swept away and corn waBhed-down. The "Farmers' Alliance"' is being talked up in this community, and it seems to meet strong approbation gener? ally. We think it is time for the slum? bering farmers to wake up and be attend? ing to things which pertain directly to their interest. Why should they be led or governed by manufacturers? why should they be forced by monopolists to indulge in the practice of such extortion atesas tend not only to damage the far? mers of the present age, but to place them still farther down the road of helplessness ? We hope every farmer in the County has read "What the farmers of Georgia are going to do to help themselves" in regard to the cotton bagging trust which appear? ed in the Issue of September 6th. Notwithstanding the inclement weather and the unusually small congregations, the meeting at - Barker's Creek. has been blessed. A goodly number have united with the Church. The pastor has been assisted by Rev. Mr. Mendenhall. We are glad to state that Miss. Mamie Robinson is gradually recovering from the long period of sicknes which has been her sad lot to endure. The members of Bethany have com? pleted the ceiling of the Church. The old time darkey is busy making baskets, and it will not be many days ere the fleecy staple will be gathered and squeezed for traveling. ? The farmers of this community are not much lovers of cotton. We generally make some for marketing purposes, but as for corn and bacon, we don't intend to sell a single particle. j. U. Mitchell has the largest hog we have seen this season. It is only ten months old, and will weigh three hun? dred pounds. We notice some of our neighbors are digging pinders. It is said that the Span? ish peanut will sprout if not dug as soon as ripe. Muscadines are getting ripe, and the young folks are expecting their usual share of them. Persimmons and locusts are ripening, too, and the opossum will be caught?then "taters" and "sop" will be the hunter's dish. On last Monday J. M. Mitchell asked several neighbors to help cover a new set of stables. While engaged in the work, several hands were on a scaffold about twelve feet high, when all at once the scaffold gave way, and down It went, helter-skelter, with five hands . with it, including H. W. Shaw, J. W. Banister, James Banister, B. P. Mitchell and Mon? roe Banister. Fortunately no one was seriously injured Monroe Banister re? ceived a slight cut on tbe head, and James A. Banister was considerably bruised by some of the party falling on him. ' Three B's seems to be very popular, but the young ladies say they are going to abandon four B's, providing it means "bang9, batchelors and bashful beaux." There is a young man in the neighbor? hood of Mt. Bethel, who seems very much attached to Barker's Creek. Wc venture to say he has a sweetheart near there. We don't know whether the young lady invites him to her home or not; nor do we know how often he goes to see her, but we know that the young lady's sister invites him very frequently. 0! for a sweetheart, who has a kind sister. A certain young man, giving a bit of his experieuce in the line of courtship, says: "Indeed I proposed to her, and really did get the answer,% I can* I leave my mamma.' " Crate. WUUamston Items.

The College opened this morning with about 25 boarders present. More are ex? pected to arrive to-day and to-morrow. Wmston. Denver Items. We have had along wet spell, which has done considerable damage to the crops. Cotton is injured by the bolls that were open sprouting and those just cracked rotting. A large amount of fruit has also been thrown off on account of so much rain. Corn in low bottoms is almost wholly destroyed, and a large amount of fodder has been lost. We hear of some damage to bridges and mill-dams, viz: The bridge over Three and Twenty,.near the Earle place, washed away. The bridge over Six and Twenty, near J. W. Majors, partly gone. The bridge over Hembree creek, near J. Belton Watson's, washed down, also bridge on same creek, near Walter Hembree's, abutment gone. The ubutment of Mr. T. R. Simpson's mill-dam was also washed away. Mr. J. A. Daniels has had about eight hundred gallons of grape vinegar put up this year, and Mr. J. B. Douthit has put up about two hundred and fifty gallons of apple vinegar, so tnis neighborhood will De prepared to" make things pretty ."sour" next year. The latest use to which we have heard of a seersucker coat being put, is that of carrying watermelons tied up in it.

Caesar Hammond, an aged and respect? ed colored- man living on Mrs. Martha Watson's place, died the Oth inst., from paralysis. Thus one by one the old time darkies are passing away. The annual campmeeting at Sandy Spring commences Thursday night, the 13th inst._Jav. Flat Book Items. Thero is not much sickness in this com? munity at present. Owing to the incessant rains, the far? mers are all despondent. The members and community of Smith's Chapel Church are now erecting a new house of worship. Rev. B. Hayes has the best average piece of upland corn we have seen. Dr. Beid is doing a good business at Deans. He has added another room, thirty feet long, to his building, which gives him a large and convenient store room. Our handsome young friend, Mr. Sam? uel Whittaker, was quite sick for some days, but we are glad to know he is better. Capt. EsteB, who has been sick for some time is now convalescing. He makes a trip to the Indian Doctor once a week. We heard a defeated candidate say a few days ago that he had just as good friends as any man, but the trouble was he did not have enough of them. Mr. E. B. Hall is now improving his dwelling house, which adds much to its appearance as well as to its convenience. This community was saddened by the death of Miss Caroline Cannon, which occurred on Wednesday, 5th inst., after a loug and painful illness with consump? tion. She was about fifty years of age. Her remains were laid to rest,in the FJat Rock graveyard. You may. say what you please about babies, but I can't Bee how any one can keep house without one. However, I jkuow a gentleman who has been without one at his house for nearly nineteen long years, and he has not murmured. He no doubt is in possession of some .of old Job's patience, and consoled himself with the thought, "blessed is he that endureth to the end.'' Just imagine how sad he must have been with no lamps to light at the midnight hour, no tea to warm, no cries of a sweet babe to disturb his rest. ?But, alas, things have changed at this gentleman's house. He has been blessed with a boy baby, and the "light goeth not out by night but remaineth till-the sun has risen in the east." This gentleman realizes now the truth of the old saying: "As long as there is life there is hope." He is bappy and serene. Fi?at. Lebanon Beading Club. Me. Editor : Deeming it worthy I will give you an abbreviated report of the en? tertainment given at Lebanon SchoolJHouse on night of 7th, by the Lebanon Beading Clnb. Although the weather was threat? ening, the Club was greeted with a fair au? dience. The exercises were opened with a piece of vocal music by all the members of the Club?"All to Christ I owe." The first piece on the programme was "Christ? mas Story," by Mr. J. W. Rothrock, which was read in a clear and distinct manner, arousing our spirits for the reception of things yet to come. Next, "Peter Sargum in love," recited by Willie Welborn. Mu? sic on harps. Next on the programme was a charade?"There is no rose without a thorn," by Miss Lula Bowen, B. J. Smith, Miss Minnie Burriss and C. Stribling, which was rendered in such style as would have given credit to more experienced am? ateurs. Vocal music Next came "Old I Sugar's Courtship," bj Dock Craig, which created a great deal of laughter, as well as showing forth human nature. Music?"A smile was all she gave me," by Miss Lula Bowen. Then we had a "Discourse by a colored man," by Henry Walker. Music by S. A. Bowen?"Old black Joe." Both ot the above were blacked and dressed in most becoming style, and could not have been better rendered by any one. Next was a piece read by Mrs. W. J3. Quails, the name of which your reporter did not learn, but suffice it to say it was well read, and that it was full of many good illustrations of human nature. .Vocal music?"She is gone." Next came "Girl's address to boys," j by Miss Leila Kay Instrumental music on harps, organ and violin. Next, recita? tion by Miss Mamie Quails?"Lines on a mother's picture." Music?"Put me in my little bed," by Rosa Welborn. Then came Dr. J. G-. Duckworth, who read "Earth? quake in Charleston," showing forth the frenzy in which our dusky brethren were thrown at the great earthquake of Charles? ton in 1886. Music?"Berobed and ready." R. L. Welborn recited "Station Agent's Story." - Music on violin by Dr. J. G. Duckworth and Frank Mullikin, and or? gan by Miss Hattie Quails. Tableau? "Jealous of the Shoemaker." Next was a dialogue?"The musical darkey," by S. A. Bowen and Willie Lee, which could not have been surpassed by anything short of professionals. Music on harps, violins and organ. The President announced the last piece?"The darkies' concert," which was rendered in such a natural style that had we known no better would have thought them "sure enough" darkies. Now, summing it up as a whole, Mr. Edi? tor, we think you miss a treat every time you miss the entertainments given by this Club. The funds that are raised by this Club are given to finish the school house at Lebanon, which renders it more worthy of ?atronago by the surrounding country, 'hey expect to give another entertainment soon. No one need fear that it is not a suitable place for tbeni, for everything is done in a decent and orderly way. W. -? Closing B'xorclses or a School. MB. Editor : It was our pleasure to attend the closing exercises of Miss S. J. McClain's School, in Fork Township, September 1st, 18S8.

The exercises opened with a song from the school, which give us to uncjoistand their musical educatiou had not been neg? lected. The speeches by the children were very fine, and a credit to themselves and their worthy teacher. So ended the morning exercises, and brought dinner, which was spread out in the hall, and all mado welcome.

Moore, who is from New York. He greeted me as an Episco? palian at heart, and shows a brotherly love to mo. Since I was in this place I preached for the Rev. Mr. Beard's congre tion twice, and found the Pastor and peo? ple full of the ohristian's love. In my judgment I believe the people of Anderson are very social, both white and colored.
