Tbe Columbia correspondent of tbe Charleston Evening Pout, under date of the 13'.h inet., says: "Yesterday, Mr. Moore, who came down for the purpose filed with Governor Ellerbe the other necessary papers in the matter of tho pe tition for the calling of the election for the establishment of the new County of Honea Path. Governor Ellerbe took the matter under advisement. The Governor stated yesterday that he had been notified that the peoplo who are pushing the Wil liamston new County idea intend to file their papera shortly. Both these pro posed new Counties cannot be formed, inasmuch as certain torritory is necessary for each. In order to give the William ston peoplo a fair showing, Governor El lerbe will wait until these papers are filed!, and will probably order both elections to take place on the same day. It is just possible that two-thirds of the people re siding in the strip wanted by each of these Counties will vote to ?o to both Counties by easting two ballots, on the ground that if one County fails they can become a part of the other. It is hard to tell what will be the result if such a contingency arisee."

Sulli van, who responded in a short Bpeech. A largo crowd had gathered on the Square to witness the inspection. Anderson has just cause to be proud of hor Fire Depart ment. Mrs. Nannie Guyton, wife of Mr. Aaron M. Gujton, ciiod at ber home near Pierre town last Friday after a briof illness with pneumonia. On Saturday afternoon her remains wore laid to rest in the Hopewell Churchyard, the funeral eervices being conducted by Rev. G M. Rogers and Rev. H. M. Allen, in the presence of a large concourse of sorely bereaved relatives and friends. . Guyton was a daughter of Capt. M. B.

In her girlhood she joined the Baptist Church, and throughout her life was a moat zeal ous, devoted member. About thirty years ago she was married to Mr. Guyton, and to them one son was born, Dr. Claire Guy ton. She was born, reared and always lived in the Piercetown section, and she will be missed there, for she was an ex ceedingly kind and accommodating neigh bor.
