We know that Anderson is a progessive, prosperous county, and it seems strange to us that there should be printed in the newspapers there so many calls by merchants on their customers for settlement of accounts. In no other county in the State do we notice so many "duns" of merchants in the newspapers. Probably the newspapers there can explain it satisfactorily, but we believe it tends to injure the reputation of the county and its people abroad. ? In the line of creating new offices comes the proposition to elect two additional circuit judges, for which we can see absolutely no use. It has always been our opinion that the circuit judges must have comparatively an easy time, and certain is it that there is never any lack of applicants for the position. And we have yet to hear of any of them complaining of being over worked. Fact is, the idea of creating two new judgeships does not appear to come from the present incumbents, and no doubt it had its origin in the minds of those who would like the job. Our courts cost enough as it is, - goodness knows, and two more judges means more litigation, more sessions of court, and of course, more expenses. The legislature should kill the bill instanter if it is ever presented. A newspaper man was asked to publish an article "roasting" a citizen. "Certainly," he said to the caller, "what shall I saj' f He was furnished with an out' line"of what he wanted and wrote an ar. ticle that was a scorcher. "That's splendid," exclaimed th? friend, when the ; article was read to him, "that is right, V'v and it'll make his old hair crinkle." "All right," said the editor, "let me see, what g??:v are your initials ?" "Good heavens," said the citizen, "you are not going to sign my : l name to that?" "Why not ?" asked the editor. "I wouldn't have anyone know I had anything to do with .that for the world. "I can't afford to get into a scrap ^ with my neighbors." The editor srailel benevolently and said: "Why should I mix in a scrap that does not concern me? T Why should I assume the blame for the publication of an article to which you f ' are afraid to sign your name?" The man stopped his."paper and went away mad. |!\ Terrible Accident. Ulmeb, December 4.?On last Saturday morning, December 1st, about 8 o'clock, a most horrible accident befell Mr. Ed. Platts. While busy around Mr. J. W. Smith's ginnery he was in some way caught in the band at the main wheel and carried around and thrown a few "Steps, wl ich ciused his arm to be crushed, and also caused almost instant death. He only lived a few minutes. Mr. Platts was a young man of about twenty-four years; his character was without.blemish; he was liked by all that knew him, and will be missed in this vicinity. He was laid at rest in the family burying ground on Sunday morning. A host of friends and relatives paid the last sad rites, which showed the high esteem in which he was held by all who knew him best.

New York, Nov. 29.?A sensation wa: sprung in part 1 of the court of genera sessions by the appearance of Bishoj Potter with a subpama as a witness ii the case of L. A. Gourdain. Immediately following the Bisho] came James J. Corbett, former heavj weight champion pugilist, President Yorl of the police board, and Joe Wolcott, tin negro pugilist. Among other subpcenae: issued was one to Queen Victoria am another to Mark Hanna, which were sen by mail. Gourdain is a Southerner. In New Orleans years ago he made $700,000 ir the lottery and retired from business He made all sorts of wild offers to bacl Bob Fitzsimmons, but wanted to put uj stock in a paieni meeucuie concern m stead of money. He brought his medi cine to New York and declared that aftei taking one teaspoonful of it a man coule jump on and off cable cars with impunity After taking one bottle he could jump or orolT the Empire State express going al full speed without injuring himself.
