Portman Letter.
Andersoniaus may DOW bo happy
The big machinoiy has all arrived at th?
Portman powur imune. The power bon*
here ls the manufaotury for tho e lev-trie
ity that freighted on Ita few wiro* throb
through every artery of the basins*
world of Anderson. From the jwrf
house this onorgy ls unwound, or uncoil
ed, aa it were, from the great circuit* c
speed, re-wound upon the ppind le* o
trade at tho substation in Anderson, am
in living threads of dre sent thronen th?'
fabric of commer?a ani: manufactory
throughout the etty and it? environ
monta.
Nine milos additional wire aro bel ni
strung by Mr. Long between Port mai
and Anderson by which to convey Ki'K
extra horse power. There shall now be?
potential of energy ti the HUI mut o? i,'>'?>:)
horsepower, which,escaping its narrow
bounds here, shall in ita own domain ol
usefulness wind, grind, whirl and weave
for tho finance of tho rich and tho comfort
of the poor.
Capital might well become morecapa
tallstlc by tho aid of thia Bllbtlo bery
stead. $15.00 iocurea tho rental ol ono
horne power for a year. How littlo the
hitch-strung noble .minmi oats, how easi
ly groomed ?ndstabled! Tho uninitia
ted cannot tell the momentum of one
borge as motive powor in a mill or print
ing press, but the farmer can tell itt
worth on bis ono borso crop. He
would bo glad to rout several such horses
for fifteen dollars por year eaeb, without
food, raiment, stabling or care.
There are now four manufacturing ma
chines at the power house. Tho latent or
present arrival is a third lareer in caps
city than those previous, and in of a con
struction to require lean room. A now
machina arrived last year of 1,333 home
power, two more previous, to this of o?d
each, so it will ba soon that the electric
compauy ls growing in power, Ander
son growing in population, and tho pop
ulance in pi asperity and comfort. Tho
correspondeut for the INTKLMOKNCKII
WHS conducted by Mr. Frank Mayos
through the avenue of wheels and veloc
ity. Thia was a dlspenaatlon ol* special
grace to tho INTKI.I.I<M:NCKU'M scribe, as
all outsiders aro barred, and tho engines
of electric jowar aro as Mount .Sinai,
bounded around, and noun daro touch
them lost they die. Tho tremendous rev
olution of those swift wbrels, their mo
mentous moaning cf lifo or death ! tho
gazer is 1 ?st lo .sublimity and cares littlo
to como down from tho mount of con
templation to ask a question; but "how
aro tl ifs.< wheels now mak Ingoiectrioitj ?"
H^kod tim Idle questioner, who, lilt*' ti
child, nsk.4 hilo questions.
Mr. Mayes, with the pilieticu ol' a gen
tlenmi, explained: "You seo this loather
bund connecting tho wheel with this.'' -
t?o machino over here. Tho small ma
chine is called au excitor; it weighs about
2,000 pounds, Is charged with elset rii!lty7
ifs thu wheel is sot in motion by wat? r
power the velocity7 is carried to tim ?>x
eiter. All life is activity, the activity
power. Electricity accumulates nt n
stupendous rate by the activity received
from the wheoh Each wheel has lis own
oxclter."
"Yes," Haid tho enlightened questioner,
"but what becomes of the electricity In
the exciter when the speed In the wheel
runs down? If activity is lifo whore is
tho electricity in this dead machino after
the wheels stop?"
"O, the exciter always i enerves a res! .
due," said Mr. Mayes, "just enough to
start, alter too whool begins."
"But," said tho Interviewer, with the
same bright idea that inspires a chil'l
when bo asks what the moon ls made of
"but where does it get tho electricity
Ural? Where does it get tho 'residue ?' J'
' The exciter ls charged when it romes
here," said Mr. Mayes. The questioner
did not ask where the charges came from,
or who made them, the limit of under
standing bad been reached, and with the
air of one whose comprehension was now
surfeited turned a listless giunco around
to the opposite wall, and enid, "What
are those clock-looking thin.?r>?"
"O, those are registers," said Mr
Mayon, "two registers for each machine,
tu show where the current is grounded;
that is. io show where between tels and
Anderson tba current ls lost, or drops by
induction. Four for the lines, to indicate
wluru their ourront is lost by breakage
or other accident. These volt meters
register tho pressure of powor on tho
machines from the gonorators. We re
cord every hour tho amount of current
in transit; tho report is seut Into Dr.
Orr's oflloo in Anderron."
"Of course your machines aro shut
donn on Sundays?" asked tho interview
er.
"Oin mnohlno is k*>pt alwava running,
bnt at 6:30, Sunday evenings, wu start tho
ttiacbiuery lor tbo Anderson mills. This
machine over at th* end, wo start every
evening between 0 and <>:'?Q for lighting
purposes."
"Where do tho wlrcn touch tho machine
lo become charged?" a-ked theqnest oner
with too persistence of one of "Haler.-,
Babies. '
"O, thev don't touch," said Mr. Mayon,
blandly ; "they don't touch nt all; "tho
wires outer what is called tho tm?gnetln
field about i of an inch (rom tim machin
ery and aro Incited by magnetic attrac
tion."
Mr. Mns'cs waa extremely obliging and

An appreciative entertainment wa*
given the evening of tho Sih inst, by th??
young gentlemen of tho poner bouse.
Mr. and Mrs. Buoby gave tho "freedom
of the house" to the young poople, and
muslo and dancing for a while shook oil
the droway lethargy of monotony.
Every member presont was a staunch
supporter of religious denominational
principles, but each realizer! that activity
and tho hu. m le? a playfulness of child
I hood are not condemnatory virtues.
Messrs. Joe and Sam Williams, of Port
man supplied musio that would inspire
even the feet of the aged to ibo supple
ness of youth.

benefit and importance of the use of
the English language but are also
growing proficient in I ho art of throw

was evidenced by a gnni loman ono day
last week while passing ulong the road
on his way homo from thu city. Ile
chanced to bo passing tho school house
nt noon recess und was followed be
tween a quarter and a half ti mile by a
howling set of school boys, yelling,

of Comanche indians. Such conduct
ns that is unbecoming nuda disgrace

that we ever had tho jileas ire of at

the negro." Each side did all that
they could to win tho decision in their
favor, but both could not win, conse
quently tho judges decided in favor of
tho negative. Both ladies and gentle
men were invited toc?me out and hear
the speakers.
Tho latest in tho way of atcaling is
that of Mr. J. H. Horton. He recently
had about one hundred bundles of fod
