Last. Friday the Intelligences office
was visited by Messrs. C. H. Jolly and A.
P.Hamilton, two handsomeyouDggentle?
men from Franklin County, Ga., who have
been spending several day3 in the County
visiting relatives. Both young gentlemen
were born in Anderson County, and Mr.
JoUy is a son of F. L. Jolly, who was
once a citizen of our County. They re?
port fine crops throughout their section.
Frank, infant of Hon. E. P. Earle,

We have just learned that the contract
for furnishing the Hotel has been awarded
to cur townsman and live furniture deal?

tory for Anderson, a? Mr. Telly whs
brought in direct competition with some
of the largest furniture factories in
the United States and underbid them.
The furniture will be of oak, walnut and
cherry, and will cost quite a sum. Let the
good work go on.
There are' now sixty-five Cadets in at?
tendance at the Patrick Military Institute,
about half of whom are from a distance.
Quite a number are still expected. Tak?
ing the first week of the new school year
as a criterion, we feel quite sure that the
coming session will be a great success in
every particular. It gives us great
pleasure to note the bright prospects oi
I this institution, as it is ona of which any
community might justly feel proud.
We regret that the pressure of business
prevented us from attending the closing
exercises of Prof. Brown's school at the
Carswell Institute last Friday, and we are
disappointed that some of our friends
down there havo not furnished the Intel
lige.vcer with an accourt of the exer?
cises. We learn that a large crowd attend'
ed, and that the programme was a most
interesting one. Prof. Brown has had a
fine school and is doing a good work there.
The good people of that section could not
give him up.
The meetings which have been in pro?
gress in the Presbyterian Church since
last Thursday evening ccme to a close
Tuesday evening. Rev. J.'DeWitt Burko
head, of Montgomery, Ala-, has con
ducted the meeting, preaching two ser?
mons a day?morning and uight. Largfi
crowds have attended each service, the
Church being crowded to its utmost seat?
ing capacity at nearly every meeting, and
much interest was manifested. There
were twenty accessions to the Church. I"
is useless for us to speak of Mr. Burke
head as a minister, for his reputation ex?
tends throughout this declic n. In Ander?
son he is not only verv pojui'ar with th?
Presbyterians, butwi'.h ah the o'ber de?
nominations, and his visits hore always
accomplish much good. A-j a logical rea?

also secrred the services of a night watch?
man, and have provided an ample snppiv
of wate.- to use in case cf fire. This, of
courso, ltas greatly reduced the insurance
on the cotton, and the amount thus saved
will enable the Association to weigh cot?
ton for nothing. On and after 1st Octo?
ber it will not cost the larmer a cent to
have his cotton weighed in Anderson.
On the evening of the llth inst., a num?
ber of the young people of the city enjoyed
a most delightful lawn party at the beau?
tiful hone of Hon. E. B. Murray. The
grove Wi>a illuminated with Chinese lan?
terns, th? evening was a most pleasant one,
and the hours passed away too quickly
for the iaerry participants. Senator and
Mrs. Murray, in their usual courteous
and host itable manner, were very atten ?
tive to tiieir guests, and left nothing un?
done tha: would tend to the enjoyment of
each and every one present, such occa
i sious are not soou forgotten.'
"Reuban,'.' the faithful old family horse
ofHoh.B.F.'Crayton, died on the 12th
inst. He was Over thirty years,.ofage.
In 1865 "Reuben" was left at Pair Play by
Brown's raiders, and in 1867 Mr. Craj tor
purchased him for $250.CO. Ever since
that time he has been in constant use, Mr.
Crayton iriving.him ta every place he
would visit in his buggy. -The whole
family wore very much attached to him
and he we was given a decent burial.
"Reuben's" old associate, '"'Old Reb," the
mule tha<: went through the war and'i?
still owned by Mr. Crayton, Is left bebind,
hale and hearty, aged forty years. -
Mrs. W. B. Cartee died at her home in
Hopewell Township last Tuesday morn?
ing. She had been a great sufferer for
nearly a .:>ear with dropsy, and her death
was expected at any time. Mrs. Cartee
was the o.?y daughter of the late Spencer
Moore, and was aboutJW! years" oi ~ age.
She had b?es l'?r" years ? very active and
consistent member of the Methodist
Ohutch, and was greatly beloved by her
numerous friends. Her remains were in?
ferred "Wednesday morning at Trinity
Church. She leaves a husband and sever?
al cblldreu to mourn her death. >
Messrs, John M. Hnb?ard & Bro. have
moved into their new establishment, and
for severa'' days have been busy opening
and arranging their new stock or goods,
which, in addition to their complete line
of watches, clooks, jewelry, silver-ware,
table cutlery, etc., includes many new
novelties ibo numerous to mention. We
venture to say that no town or city in the
State can how a more beautiful establish?
ment thar the Messrs. Hub'oard. It is a
pleasure to spend an hour looking through
their stock, and these gentlemen are always
pleased, to show their goode. When you
visit the city be sure to give them a call at
their new quarters, next door to the Far?
mers' and Merchants' Bank. Look out
for their new advertisement next week.
Maggie McDowell, a colored woman
about 20 ysars of ?age,' living on Mr. J. K.
Duckworth's plantation iu Hopewell
Township died very suddenly last.Mon
day afternoon. Coroner Nance was noti?
fied of her death, and on Tuesday morning
went up there and held an ir. quest. From
the evidence it seems that th .i woman was
in her usual health at dinner time. An
hour later her husband caiae back to the
house and found her stretched across the
bed speechless, and in a few moments she
was dead. Her mother testified that the
deceased h id always been subject to pecu?
liar spells. There was no ev idence of foul
play, and the jury of inquest returned a
verdict .that she came to death from natu?
ral causes.

The annual Campmeetlr.g at Sandy
Springs ha3 come and gone. The attend?
ance was r;ood throughout and an im?
mense crowd was there Sunday. The
ministerial force was ample, and a num?
ber of good seimohs calculated to bring
fruit in aft?<r days were preached. Up to
noon Mon lay there were eleven acces?
sions and about twenty conversions. The
Pastor, R6V. N. B. Clarksoc, assisted by
Bev. 8. J. Cowan, an evangelist from Cov
iugton, 6a., will protract the meeting, and
doubtless great good will be accomplished.
As usual tie Devil had his henchmen on
the grounds to do his dirty work. The
police captured some whiskey and secured
the names of several persons who wore
guilty of misconduct. Such people
as go to meeting just to "cut up" and
have a big ~ime onght to be made behave.
The Trustees of Sandy Springs Church
Eroperty asem inclined to enforce the
lw against the disturbers uf the peace
|and dignity of the Campmeeting.
Cotton is opening very fast, and farmers
are kept busy to get it picked out.
One of the newest substitutes for jute
bagging w&4 mentioned by David Rlchey,
the beef man, recently. He said he
believed he could get more for his beef
hides as covering for cotton than any
other way he could dispose of them.
Surely the bagging question will be
solved yet. -
S. L. Eskew and wife are visiting rela?
tives in Georgia.
Ham. Jo;ley, Addison Hamilton, and
Johnnie ..Pimply, all dfthis County by
birth, but now of Franklin County, Ga.,
have been on a visit to relatives in this
country. We rather suspect some of An?

part of the attraction.
Rev. Milton Lindsay, pastor of Ebene
nezer Baptlit Church (colored) has been
carrying or u protractod meeting at that
Church for > ome time. Several have pro?
fessed convf.rsibn and joined} the Church.
Lindsay is it very well-inforn-ed preacher,
and when ho fails to impress * sinner it is
a hard caso, indeed. The members of
this Church are erecting a substantial and
commodiou?! church building. They are
getting on lather slow, but prefer to do
so rather than go in debt. The member?
ship is largely composed of peaceable,
hard-working persons, and they ought to
be encouraged. The spirit of rowdyism,
so often met with at big meetings at col?
ored churches, was conspicuous by its
absence at this. Jay.

Jasper Ke'ley, of the Major's neighbor?
hood, has a prize acre of corn of the Tip
ton variety, which has been gathered, and
measured fovty-eight bushels. Jap. has a
good corn t.rop, and is not 'ilow on the
cotton line. The crops iu tb-it neighbor?
hood are generally good, but the outcome is
not thougbr, to ba m good as was sup?
posed six woeks ago. In the Hickory Flat
neighborhood the cotton wonn has made
its appearau :o, and Mr. Norm thinks will
curtail the orop seriously. We see that
the UniYers; ty farm at Columbia, whioh
was a competitor for the cie thousand
dollar ipreruium.aore of corn, has fallen
. down to about fifty bushels' Of course
that rules it out. Mr. Gannon, of the
Denver neighborhood, only claims about
one hundred bushels on b'b premium
acre, but thinks if the expense of cultiva?
tion was t? be considered, he would
stand a betk-r chance Mr. B? u. Perry, of
Greenville, has a premium aore which it
was thouglt two months ago would
make one hundred and seventy bushels,
has failed 0i. account of too n nch rain in
August, beh.g on bottom land. So that
it seems the Marlboro man, on his sandy
upland loam, will take the prke so far as
this State is ooncerned.
Startling, lt.il true. Mr.-Norris in his ex
selh-sn address at the Walker-McElmoyle
Institute recently, said that th..-. negroes of
the State wro taking more interest iu
education tum the whites ; that the Claf
lin Univerei y for the colored people, was
one of the btst educational institutions in
the State, to pronounced by Governor
Richardson 'limself; that while the State
University h.ul some two hundred, Claflln
had her nine hundred; that all our color?
ed common schools wore hotter patronized
than the white, aud unless '.ho masses
of the white people bestirred themselves
they would I a outstripped in the" race for
educational advancement by tho "poor
nigger;" tb;it education and educated
men would r ile tho State, as It did else?
where, wherever found. This was a
startling proposition, but no more start?
ling than trua. Let us quit ubusiug the
negro and tu u our attention uore to the
educational advancement of our own race,
so as to keep pace at least With the infe?
rior race. T. H. R.
