Said an old citizen the other day: "The making of the old-time gingercake is one of the lost, arts, and it is rare for one made like they were.before the war to be Been. The gingercake business was considered one of the best in the country. At sales, court grounds and all publio gatherings the gingercake could be found, with a glass of corn beer thrown in. Those days, however, are over, and now it is a bard matter to hear of, much less see, an old tune gingercake." Jeff. D.

Attention is directed to the annual statement of the Mutual Life Insurance Company, published in another column.

McAdams died at her home near Antrevilio, in Abbeville County, on the 13th inst. She had been siok about three weeks with typhoid fever. Mrs. McAdams was about 31 years of age, and was a most excellent woman, whose death is deeply regretted by a wide circle of friends. She leaves a husband and tvro children to mourn her death. She was a member of First Creek Church, and her remains were interred at that Church on the day following hzr death, Bev. G. M. Bogers conducting *Se funeral services. Owing to the wet .veather, many of our wells have surface water in them. This is dangerous to health and life. A prudent man will take the fv vest number of risks, and will empty his well. Nearly aU of our sickness is caused by poisonous well water. As a matter of economy it is cheaper to draw the water out of the well and to clean onr premises than it is to pay doctors' bills or funeral expenses. Our life and our health are our richest estate, therefore we should take proper care not to tempt Providence to visit us in a "mysterious way." The Westminster Banner, of last week, says: " 'Dot,' tbe smart und sweet little child, of Mr. and Mrs. R. F. White, was taken from them on last Thursday night after a brief sickness. She was a remark" ably bright child and was almost adored by her fond parents. Bev. B. W. Barber conducted the funeral services and she was laid to rest in the cemetery at the old Baptist Church on Friday afternoon. The afflicted parents' have the sympathy of the entire community." Mr. and Mrs. White's many friends in Anderson County will read the above with sadness. Messrs. E. W. Taylor & Co. receive fresh groceries every day, and are always prepared to supply your wants in anything in the grocery line at remarkably low prices.

Nail y, an experi? enced butcher of Greenville, who will be ready at any time to supply the l;rade with fine, fresh beef. As the season gets cooler, they will also keep on band all kinds of fresh meat. Eveiy thing will be sold at very low prices, and satisfaction guaranteed to every patron. We advise our readers to give Messrs. Taylor & Co. a call, for we know you will be treated right by them. We had a pleasant call Wednesday morning from Judge G. K. Miller, of Talladega, Ala., who, accompanied by bis good wife is visiting the family of bis brother-in-law, Mr. B. H. Anderson, near Equality. Jndge Miller fills the position or Pr< b ite Judge for Talladega County, ana is a most pleasant gentleman. He married his wife{ who was a Miss McCann in this County, and for u year or two after the war resided in tbe County. Judge MUler at one time belonged to the editorial fraternity of bis State, and is a grand-son of the late John Miller, Esq., who was editor of the old Pendleton Messenger. The visit of he and his wife is a source of ! much pleasure to their many old friends. There was a large and enthusiastic meeting of the stockholders of'the Co-op? erative Store in the Court House last Mon? day. The meeting was held with olosed doors, and consequently we are unable to give our readers any of tbe business trans? acted. It is a fact, however, that the Store will be opened, and that, too, at an early day. The following gentlemen were elected a Board of Directors of the Store: A. C. Latimer, J. Belton Watson, T. W. Martin, W. A. Neal, M. A. Thomp? son, R. M. Burriss and Reuben Clink scales- During tbe afternoon the Board met and elected Mr. B. S. Hill manager of the Store. Tbe subscriptions to tbe capital stock amount to about $25,000, and the books are still open to receive addi? tional subscriptions. Rev. J. W. Scott, pastor of St. Paul's (colored) Baptist Church, has arranged to have a coronation entertainment in this city for the evening of September 13th.

Durham, of Columbia, j and Rev. Dart, of Charleston, two promi? nent colored ministers, will be present, and deliver addresses during the evening. The members of this Church are now erecting a neat parsonage, and they pro? pose as soon as possible to improve and finish painting their church building, Mr. Scott seems to be a worker, and should be encouraged in his efforts. The white friends of the congregation hare contrib? uted about $55.00 to the building of the parsonage. Bead This, Farmers. At a meeting of the Cotton Buyers'As? sociation of Anderson, held last Friday, 16th inst., the following preamble and resolution, which were offered by Capt, P. K, McCully, were unanimously adopted: Whereas, the farmers of the South have determined to use cotton bagging as a substitute for jute as far as possible. Therefore, bb it, ResoUed, That we, the Cotton Buyers' Association of tbe City of Anderson, S. C, aid. this movement by all fair and honora? ble means; that we use our influence to have a proper deduction of tare made by the Cotton Exchanges of this country and Europe, to the end that cotton covering may take the place of jute as completely as the iron tie did that of jute rope, and that should the snpply of cotton bagging this season be unequal to the demand, we will use our efforts to supply any substi? tute that will meet the Wants or the cot? ton growers and enable them to put their cotton on the market in a merchantable condition independently of jute bagging, thereby showing our appreciation of the combined aotion of the farmers. Honea Path Items. Singing, Singing, Singing! How de? lightful to hear from almost every house the sweet strains of music, wafted on the soft zephyrs of the evening air. Such pleasures are enjoyed by our people. Prof. Showalter has started our people to singing, and it is to be hoped that they will keep on until they learn how to sing well. Thursday night, 29th inst., will be given one of tbe grandest concerts ever given in the up-country. Mr. Editor, be sure and come. Prof. Showalter is not only one of the best musicians in the South, but he is a polished Christian gen? tleman. Prof. Fleet Banister has just closed a very successful singing school at Mt. Bethel Church, and is now teaching at New Prospect. The patrons seem very much pleased with him as a teacher?he Is one of Prof. ShowaUer's pupils. Our school house presents a beautiful appearance now after the painter has given the finishing touches. How a little paint put in the right place does help the looks of things. Bev. M. McGee has been conducting a very successful protracted meeting at Shady Grove Church. Rev. R, J. Wil? liams, of Greenville, assisted him. Rev. R. D. Hawkins, assisted by Rev. A. VanHoose, of Gainesville, Ga., closed on Monday a very good meeting at Little River Church. Bev. D. W. Hlott, assisted Rev. J. A. Brown, at Donnalds, last week in a very interesting meeting. This week he and Bev. F. M. Cann are conducting a meet? ing at New Prospect. Miss Maud Wakefield gladened the heartB of our people, especially one, by her presence. She is spending some time with the family of Dr. Hud gens. Miss Mettie Suratt, of Williamston, is visiting in town. W. D. Bennett, Esq., of the firm of Ben? nett & Bro., of Bamberg, and Mr. Stephen W. Hiott, of Colleton County, are visiting their uncle, Rev. D. W. Hiott. Georgia and Tennessee are represented in the Normal Music School; also Pickens, Abbeville and other Counties of this State. We think that if our people could see their own interest, more of them would be attending the school. But, alas! it takes very little knowledge of any kind to do some people. The colored people have just closed a big meeting here. Quite a number were baptized. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Smith paid a visit to then* sister, Mrs. D. W. Hiott, last week. Mr. and Mrs. Yaacey Martin, of Lnla, Ga., were on a visit to their relatives last week. The Allianoemeu are going ahead. They ha ve ren ted the store house belonging to Mr. J. R. Donnald, occupied last year by Mr. J. R. Callaham. The Directors elected Bev. D. W. Hiott as business man? ager, bnt he declined, as it would require too much of his time, wbioh ought to be given to other work, Mr. M. L. Wilson, of Cray ton, was'then elected and accepted tbe position. Messrs. M. B. Wright and M. A. Kay were elected salesmen and accepted. These gentlemen will all move to town this fall, and will be quite an addition to our town, We bid them wel? come. Messenger. Holland's Store Items. Turnip sowing is the order at present. Fodder will soon be ready to pull. Some of our farmers are still plowing cotton. It. may be trespassing on "our friend," 'your Corner correspondent,' but we feel bound to mention the extra fine crop of Mr. J. W. Leverett. Mr, Leverett farms altogether on upland, "thin land at that" His place shows the old adage to be true "that there is more in the man than there is in the land." He has a considerable amount of corn that will make twenty-five bushels per acre. All that we can see lacking in John's judgment is his failure to harness himself up with some nice girl. Mr. W. A. Holland paid us a flying visit a few days ago. Still looking well. He now tips the beam at 222. Mr. J. M. Cardin, perhaps, has tbe best field of cotton in this neighborhood. The weather for the past few weeks has been unfavorable to the peach crop. What we said a few weeks since in re gard to the preaching at Andersonville was made in a general way, and had no referenoe, whatever, to any person. We make this statement, as we learn some persons took the matter to themselves. It has never been our intention to person? ate any one in any other than a pleasant way. Hope Mr. Tippins, especially, will take this as satisfactory. Protracted meetings have been held at various Churches, and are in progress at others at present thronghout this section. Very little demonstration, so far as can be Been from a human standpoint. Per? haps the seed are being sown and will after awhile bring forth. Mr. and Mrs. G. L. Stevenson, Jr., have a little daughter only seven years old that is a born musician. She can play the organ equal to many thrlbbleher age who have given the science of music a great deal of attention. Such children should be encouraged and given an opportunity to fully expand and develop their God giyon talents. Miss Carrie Shearer, while returning from Church one day last week, fell out of the vehicle in which she was riding, and one of tbe wheels passed over her, bruising her up considerably. Dr. Wlth erspoon is attending her and thinks that her injuries will not be fatal. We hope she may be restored soon to her wonted health. The contract for the covering of Shiloh Church was let on last Friday to Messrs. Hewiu & Bolt. The work has already begun, and will bo finished up at once. Miss Beaulah Cox, a charming young lady from Honea Path, has been visiting Miss Ada Anderson for the past week. Rev.

The Fendleton Male Academy has been greatly improved in appearance by a coat of whitewash. The next session of the school will begin Sept. 2nd. Mrs, Geo.

C, was on a short visit to Mrs. W. C. Latimer, the latter part of last week. Among the recent arrivals in town we notice: Captain Ben and Cordes Gaillard of the S. C. B. P.,, Messrs. John Brinsdon, Sam'l Gaillard, Henry Hall and Louis Sloan, of Charleston, and Mr. Bnrt Trescot of Washington, D. C. Mr. Sid Cherry, an old resident of this place, has been confined to bed for several months with rheumatism. He has the sympathy of many friends in his affliction. Miss Hattie Smith is visiting her sister, Mrs. Wm. S. Brown, of Anderson. Key. Mr. Mills, of Camden, S. 0., occu? pied Dr. Adger's pulpit last Sunday, and preached a sermon which, for purity of thought and elegance of diction, is seldom equalled. The crop prospects in this section were never better, and consequently every one is in good spirits. Zed. The Offenders Should be Punished. Mb. Editor: On last Sunday morning some visitors visited Roberts Church, and while enjoying the sermon, some persons unknown went to their carriage and with their knives cut in pieces the seats, whips, and did something more degrading than this, which I will not mention. It does seem to me that this is a shame on any community in which such depreda? tions are allowed. I would suggest to the good people of the Church that they unite their efforts, and if necessary elect an officer to preserve order and keep down such depredations. One Who Has Sufpered.

"Another wonderful discovery has been made and that too by a lady ia this county. Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for seven years she withstood its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly and could not sleep.
