There is one thing which some of the drivers of horses in this city should be mnde to understand, and that is, pedes? trians are entitled to the right of way on crosswalks. It is quite a common thing for some drivers to act as if the man had no right to the crosswalk until all teams in sight had driven over it. This is an error. Tbe man on foot has tbe first right, and if you drive upon or against him, you make yourself liable to an action for darn-, ages Our Olio correspondent sends us tbe following: "Cupid has been at work in our midst again, and as a result a party of gay and happy people assembled at tbe residence oi Mr. William Hall, the father of the bride, where Mr. T. W. McClure and Miu Florence A. Hall were united in tbe bonds of holy matrimony, Rev, W. M. Pinson officiating.

Sullivan died at his home in Fork Township last Sunday morning. He was sick only a week with typhoid dysentery. Mr. Sullivan was about 67 years of age, and was highly esteemed in his neighborhood, where be had spent the greater portion of his life. He was a bard working, upright man, and his friends deeply regret his death. He was a con? sistent member of the Baptist Church, and just before he died he expressed himself ready to meet the summons of death. His remains were interred at Townville on Monday, Rev. W. M. Pinson conduct? ing the funerallaervic.es. Last Sunday morning Rev. A. A. Mar? shall tendered his resignation as pastor of the Anderson Baptist Church, which was accepted. This action was rendered ne? cessary on account of his continued ill health. Mr. Ma:,hall has been pastor of the Church for about four years, but on account of ill-health has done very little work during the past two years. There was never a more popular pastor in Ander? son than he, and not only his own congre? gation, but our entire people, regret ex? ceedingly that he will no longer be with us. Wherever he may go, he will carry the prayers of our whole people lor the restoration of his health. ] n the old slave days there was a godless master who owned an old darkey named Pomp. Pomp was a local exhorter of re? pute, and his zuaBter loved to tease him about it. One day he said: "Pomp, do you believe in the doctrine of election ?" "Yes, maasa," was the reply, "IalluB did." "Well," persisted the master, "do you think I am one of the elect ?" The negro sciatohed his head. His caution and his sense of the decencies of the case prevented him from blurting out tbe reply which suggested itself. So he fenced with it and answered: "Wal, masea, I never heered of any man's bein' elected who wasn't a candidate."

Look out for tbe grand street parade Sat? urday afternoon. Admission prices, &Q and iv> 'cents. Reserved seats on sale at Hill Bros. The Atlanta Constitution speaks as follows of the troupe : "At the Opera House last evenjng, Barlqvv' Brothers' Mi n'strels opened a very successful season. There was a'large audience: every num? ber was encored, and double and triple recalls were frequent. Qf course thqse o}d favorites, Bariow Brother*, gpt then- share of the applause, and they deseryed it, for if apytjjjng they are- Appier than, ever, They we oa tbe ends in the first part, and leaders in the original sketch entitled Tbe Two Dummies.' The Dixie Quar? tette, oonslatlng of Messrs. Bummell, LaBord, Howard and Hudson, is admir? ably chosen, and their numbers were well rendered. The vocallsm throughout is unusually fine- The tenor, Mr, LaBord, has a very rich voice that is thoroughly trained'. The song'and aahce, "Cinderella Jackson's Masquerade,'" made a big hit.* Thomson add Duclos'gave some novelties in unique musical comedy, and the' Leon Brothers in gymnastic gyrations Conclude a truly wonderful ana entertaining per? formance." The Lowndesville correspondent of the Abbeville Press and Banner, says: "Rev. Squire Dodson, colored, has come to grief. He went to Andereon last year and bought supplies from Mr. J. S. Fowler, to whom be gave a lien upon a crop that did not materialize, and a mortgage upon stock which he expected to own in the future. His clerical robes did not protect him against such a violation of iaw, and when two of our young men went to "serve the Eapers" he suddenly "broke" for the ushes, and after a two hundred yards ex? citing race through briars and over gullies he had to stop to "wind," and our fastest runuiug deputies were glad enough of it. Hu is now peeping through the bars of the Anderson jail." Last week we stated that the boys could shoot partridges after 1st October. In this we were mistaken. In December, 1888, the Legislature amended the game law of the State, which now reads as follows; "It shall not be lawful for any person in this State, between the first day of April and tho first day of November in any year hereafter, to catch, kill or injure, or to pursue with such intent, or to Bell or ex? pose for sale, any wild turkey, partridge, quail, woodcock, or pheasant, 01 between the first day of March and the first day of August any dove ; or at any tine during the year, to catch, kill, or injure, or to pursue with such intent by fire-light, any of the birds named in this section. And any person so doing shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon con? viction thereof shall be fined not more than twenty dollars, or be imprinoned not more thau thtrty days."? Sect ion 1G94, General Statutes. The union meeting of the sever al denom? inations of the city was held in the Bap? tist Church last Sunday night under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A., and was at? tended by a very large congregation, the Church being filled to its utmofit seating capacity. The meeting bad been arranged especially for young men, and Rev* John 0. Wilson, Presiding Elder of the Green? ville District, invited to deliver a sermon especially to them. On the rostrum sat Rev. Dr. Frierson, Rev. C. B. Smith, Rev. M. Gassaway and Rev. II. E. Parish, all of whom participated in the services. Mr. Wilson announced as his text the latter portion of the 5th verse of the 22nd chapter of 1st Timothy: "Keep thyself p are." His sermon was deeply interesting, plain and practical, and no doubt made a good im? pression upon every one present. A similar meeting will be held in the Meth? odist Church next Sunday night, when the Rev. Mi. Parish, of the Baptist Church, will deliver the sermon. These meetings will be continued for several Sunday nights, and it is hoped much good will re? sult from them. It is our sad duty to record the death of another one of Anderson County's most excellent women in the person of Mrs. V. H. Breazeale, who died at her home near Belton on Monday afternoon.' She had been a sufferer for several months, and her death, therefore, was not unexpected by her family and friends. Mis. Breaz? eale was abont 45 years of age, and was a daughter of Marion E Mitchell. She was twice married, her first husband being Marion Griffin, deceased. She was born and ieared in the Belton section, where she was well known and most highly es? teemed- She was a devoted member of the Baptist Church, and in every relation of life displayed her Christian character. Her friends and neighbors loved her deeply, and her death has brought Borrow to their hearts. She leaves a bereaved husband and a large family to mourn her death, and in their bereavement tbey have many sympathizers. On Tuesday afternoon her remains were laid to rest in the Dorchester Churchyaid, after appro? priate funeral services, conducted by Rev. U. M. Rogers, in the presence of a large congregation.

Mr. Job Yeargin, who has been can? vassing Belton Township in the interest of B. T. Johnson & Co., of Richmond, has returned. Rev. R. C.

'One evening last week ar old friend, who is in the habit of making frequent visits to a certain place, started towards the place alluded to in order that he might carry his "best girl" to Church that night But another being sooner than he?and not being discouraged at this?he started for his "second best." As railroads are good places on which to travel, be was not long in reaching the home of his "second best." He and the fair Unionite were soon on their way to a protracted meeting, the one of which we have already spoken. After the services were over they happily returned to the buggy, awaiting a most pleasant ride. She sat there in a complacent manner an? ticipating what a good time they would have and joyfully gazing on her bewil? dered lover. Just as tbe young man climbed into tbe buggy and was preparing to leave, he heard a strange sound under the seat which he could not account for. He hears another sound. Was it a mis oreant who had designedly placed himself there for tho purpose of frightening them ? Could it be such ? Numerous were the thoughts that agitated their minds, but in the twinkling of an eye the great annoyer appeared, which relieved the couple of their uneasiness. It was simply an old hen, which had been placed there and se? curely tied by the mischievous brothers of the young lady. The young man did not explain the cause of this sensation to the bystanders, who were eagerly looking on and enjoying the fun, but shoving tbe intruder back into the place from which it came he hastily departed. All who wit? nessed it say that it was a very ludicrous affair, yet our friend won the chicken, though he had to drive his mule almost to death. Pais. Cedar Grove Items, We are all very busy pulling fodder, and hope we will succeed in saving all of it. Cotton is very good through this section, but the rust has struok it and looks as if it was going to damage it very much, Mr. and Mrs. Asa Mahaffey have been very low with the fever for thelast month. Mrs. J. C. Coline died on the 2nd inst., leaving eight children to mourn her death. She was buried at the Cedar Grove ceme? tery, the funeral services being conducted by Rev. G. M. Rogers. She was a consis? tent member of the Baptist Church. Our Slabtown friend has been giving it to the County Commissioners for not vis? iting his section. If he were to come down the "Five Notch Road" from Cant. B. C. Martin's and travel it for five miles he would not want them tp vjsit his secr tion. Two years ago he' 'could drive over this road and not get a jolt, but now a drive over it will nearly jolt the breath out of any man. We have this year worked six days op this road, and I can conscien? tiously say that it is in a worse fix than it would have been if not a lick of work had been done on ft.

John and Will Wright, who will run it at the old stand. We bespeak for them a liberal I patronage. This community is on a building boom. There is Messrs. Fleming, Seigler. Earle, and others, all within a mile of this place, who are building and repairing their bouses. This is a good sign, for where you find good, substantial buildings, you will find a prosperous and happy people. A series of meetings have just closed at Sbiloh Church, in whioh there were about thirty accessions. This has been the most successful meeting at this place within the history of the Church. We hope those young converts will "let their light so shine," that at the judgment their "balances" shall not be "found wanting." A negro, whose description somewhat answers that of Wiley McMullan, called at the house of Lewellyn Finn a few days ago and called for something to eat. Mrs. Finn being alone, she ordered him to move on. He refused, and on finding Mrs. Finn to be alone, he drew his pistol and started to enter the bouse, whereupon Mrs. Finn called for her husband. This frightened him and he left. A posse of men started in pursuit and tracked him as far as Mr, A- & Scudday's, where they lost his track. Ha has been heard of since in Hart County, Ga. If be is found on this '$ide again, he will pay the penalty becoming such characters. Jinks. ? - ?.=? A Word Frflm Bf-uuq, TMokJflg pmhab}y that some of your readers would like to hear from this "side of the globe," I will try and give you a fow dots, which I hope will be fortunate enough to dodge the waste basket. Everything is quiet in this section at present. Our farmers are about through pulling fodder, and some of them have be?Un, to pick cotton,.

Wpll, 1 don't know do much abdut' tfcdt; I will ask him "when I get a.'p opportunity. Look out, brother ''Gimlet 1" if you don't quit crossing the Double Bridges so often you may take the same disease. As this is my first epistle, I will close and write more next time. Don Lino, i He Endorses tho Intelligencer's Advice. Messrs. Editors: I am not much ac? customed to writing letters for the press, but I cannot refrain from expressing my gratification of tho article in your issue of September 10th, entitled "Price of Cotton Advancing." The advice therein given is certainly the best that I have seen in print in many years, and ought to be copied by every newspaper in the South. That ad? vice, if followed, will without doubt put in tbe pockets of the cotton growers some of the money lost by them last year, when they followed advice of exactly the oppo? site. The advice of last year was to nold the cotton?the advice of the Intelligen? ces for this year is to sell the cotton as soon as it can be carried to market. Cotton growers, you can shove your hand down in your pocket and fish out the last nickel you have got, and bet that, and all you can borrow, that this is good advice. I am proud that I am a subscriber to the Intel? ligencer. If in the past I may, at times, have felt that the Editors were a little slack in gathering the news, and not progressive enough in advancing thoughts for the en? lightenment of its readers, I now humbly beg pardon for entertaining such thoughts, and from this on will swing my hat in the air and hurrah for the Intelligencer whenever occasion presents itself for so doing. Your article ought to be printed in circular form and scattered all over the South. May your shadow never be less, is the hearty wish of Uncle Josh. Shanksology. Mr. Editor : For the benefit of certain individuals I beg leave to say through your columns that I am in no lukewarm state in regard to the Intelligencer or its editors, or its foreman, or its bindman, or its devil. I have the same regard for the paper now that I ever had, and I hope to luep on a continuing. It is true your po? litical and religious spectacles don't ex? actly focus my eyes, but then you have not tried to force me to look through yours. Neither have I insisted that my glasses would suit you better than your own. So I guess we are good friends. There is another thing I wish distinctly understood, viz: that I have not got liver discate. I never did have it, never intend to have it; it is entirely too fashionable. I have a perfect horror of having some? thing that everybody else has. A Doctor asked me the other day if I didn't have torpor of the liver (out, mind you, it was not Dr. Duckworth.) I told him no, that I was not certain I had any liver. I am sick and disgusted of hearing and reading about liver complaint, liver pills, liver pellets, liver tablets, liver regulator, etc., etc. I have made up my mind to die with something else. And I am getting almost as tired of hearing about blood poison. It is getting entirely too fashionable, and the first thing anybody knows, I will refuse to have that. I am glad to note that neither of tbe aforesaid diseases are prevalent in the Kingdom. Shanks. Melton's Academy Items. Cotton opens very slow in this section. I believe it is off 20 per cent, this year. Corn never was any better, and never have seen more planted. That's right; plant more next time. Miss Anna Webb, of Brushy Creek, is Sending a few days with her sister, Mrs. anta Johnson, in this section. Messrs. Warren Brooksand Dow Hicks, with their families, will move to Georgia as soon as crops are gathered. Some of the Georgia folks will have good neigh? bors next year. Mr. Jas- McAlister, our 'lasses maker, if* ready,, for the business. Jas. will just make* the man "hustle" that beats him making "good 'lasses." N Well, I believe everybody is as well as common; not often I see the Doctor. I am quite well, I thank you. Gimlet.

Wis., was troubled with Neuralgia and Rheumatism, his Stomach was disordered, his Liver was affected to an alarming degree, appetite fell away, and he was terribly reduced in flesh and strength. Three bottles of Electric Bitters cured him. Edward Shepherd, of Harrisburg, 111., had a running sore on his leg of 8 years' standing. Used three bottles of Electric Bitters and seven boxes of Bucklen's Ar? nica Salve, and his leg is sound and well. John Speaker, Catawba, O., had five large Fever s ores on his leg, doctor said he was incurable. One bottle Electric Bitters and one Box P- ?'den's Arnica Salve cured him entirely. Sold by Hill Bros. It is astonishing how rapidly the feeble and debilitated gain strength and vigor when taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. For what are called "broken-down constitu ! tions," nothing else has proved so effective I as this powerful but perfectly safe xnedl I cine. The use of calomel for derangements of the liver has ruined many a fine constitu? tion. Those who, for similar troubles, have tried Ayer's Pills testify to their effi? cacy in thoroughly remedying the mal? ady, without injury to the system. Second Hand Engine?.

JONES, SEYBT & CO TO OUR PATRONS. We now occupy the Spacious Store Boom UNDER THE MASONIC TEMPLE, WHERE wo are belt* r prepared than ever to serve the Trading Public. -On account of the constant increase in our business we were forced to seek larger quirters, and now we have o hesitancy in saying that we have one of the beat lighted, largest and most spacious Store Rooms to be found in Upper Carolina. * Taking this in connection with our long experience as merchants and buyers, we are positive tbat we can oflVr you good Goods at much lower prices than elsewhere. We are great believers in h1. ort profits, and not to misrepresent any of our merchan? dise. For example, if a piece of goods is cotton, we say this is all cotton. On the other band, if it is part wo<>l and cotton, we say the chain is cotton and the warp is wool. As to Low Prices, We would say, if an article cost us one dollar we would gladly oner same at one dollar and ten cents; but to do this we have decided to confine ourselves to Cash on * Delivery, because we would be compelled to turn our money over at least three times a year, and in order to do a much large:; and more modern business we have decided tr> inaugurate the 'One Price Plan," and from now on, henceforth and for* ever, we will give? One Price to All! By this method a mere cbiid can come into our Establishment and shop just as well as an aged person. We are not "birds of flying passage"?we have come to stay; nor do we believe in "getting all you can." All we ask is a living, and just a little . to lay aside for a rainy day. We have at all times carried a fair stock of? READY MADE CLOTHING For Men and Boys, but this season we went perfectly wild ; we found prices so loir, on account of over production, that the temptation was too great. We went into a Manufacturer's who had one hundred Suits that cost six dollars to make; he was compelled to sell, and we secured the lot at four dollars. We now offer this excel* lent bargain, as long as th<- lot la-.ts, at four dollars and forty cents. We have so much Clothing that we do not know what to say first. To make a long story short, ' we will add tbat our Custom Made Goods are grand, and fully 25 per cent cheaper than elsewhere. We have secured the Agency for the? Harrisburg Shoe Company. They make only line sewed goods, and we give a printed guarantee on every pair. ?
