"Boys have no business to be out of nights," was a dec araiion that once fell from the lips of a gentleman of wide and successful experience in business. His observation was that boys who were in the habit of loafing on the streets at night did not usually coma to any good. During our rounds of the city any day when the streets are crowded there is one feature of the efforts of the farmers that is very noticeable, and that is the splendid condition, in which their stock is kept. The mulos and horses are well fed, sleek and frisky. This is an evidence of pros? perity, and speaks well for our section. Mr. Z. T. Fleming, who lives near Pied? mont, was in the city on Friday and gave us a plea'iaut call.

The big advertisement of Gosaett & Brown will no doubt catch the eye ol every reader of the Intelligencer this week, especially those who are needing shoes.

Dr. J. O. Wilbite was called to dress the wound and bad to cut the pin from the unfortunate boy's bead. On yesterday the negro was still living, but Dr. W?hlte thinks the wound will prove fatal.

This will make the fare from Anderson, on Tuesdays and Thursday, $2 for the round trip, end $4 for the round trip the remain? ing days in each week. This insures a big crowd of visitors from this section of South Carolina. Mrs. H. R. Barmoie died at her home in Williiimston last Sunday morning, aged 46 years. She was aick about five weeks, and was a great oufiferer. Her deatb, therefore, was not unexpected by her im? mediate relatives and friends. Her re? mains were interred at Williamston on Monday.

The Greenvllls News says two weeks ago a shepherd dog belonging to Dock Smith, of Walhalla, went mad and besides biting a number of dogs, bit two horses, one belonging to Mr. Smith, the other to Will Hall. A few days ago the horse of Mr. Hall gave evidence that he was suf? fering from hydrophobia and he was fas? tened in a close lot to await developments. 8am Crews, a negro, not heeding the ad? vice of frlenda, went into the lot and made some demonstration of friendship for the horse, when the animal jumped at him and caught him by the side with his teeth, tearing out a large piece of flesh, and then seized him by the leg, inflicting another wound. The negro was rescued from the infuriated or maddened beast before further injuries were sustained. The two horses were killed as well as several dogs known to have been bitten.
