AftMVCsWAKV This is the anniversary ot a d?y memorable in the pages of history, lt has been 49 years since' that pleasant, mild spring do? when H?bt, B. Lee, accompanied only by Col.

Gen, 1 .ce for some time had1 been desirous to ?top. ?hg further ?ffu?ioa of blood, and had made as bold a stand ai possible/although bis mcu} had absolutely nothing to, eat, and upon the afternoon of the surrender Gea. Graul seat to his camp rations ?or 25.??? men. Gen Grant made the terms of the surrender as liberal as possible and Gen. Lee called attention to the fact that the soldiers In ' the cavalry and the artillery branch of the Confed erate army owned their .horses, and would need them on their farms. Gen. Grant replied* that he would permit inls "as thc country had been so raided by the two armies, lt .la doubt (tf eirrj^tJsm ^fe ' families** through tho next winter without the pije, of. tbe-^hofsea which they were riding.*" Grant as"the commander of the army was more of a man in that supreme moment than ho was'later under reconstruction. r> K ASStimTKR PRESS Really, the Associated PreBS does not rinftnwfl th** column** th?it is kca ed upon it We sometimos see "newspapers," assuming airs unto themselves end speaking of "our Associated Pron* dispatches," when as a matter ot fact tiiey do get a "pony service." . upon which as a skeleton they plaster end paste the fnll body of news "associ ated" by scissorsgr?pght ?rom papers that pay thu price' to the Associated Press for the news.

A WOKTIIY ENTERPRISE In looking over the last report of the chemists of the agricultural bu reau at Clemson College .'we are pleased to observe the high rating given the Anderson fertilizers by the experts at Clemson.

For a Municiple Market Editor The Intelligencer: Your suggestion l'or a city rnarket is good and it Certainty is very much needed. Nothing could help the housekeeper more, lt has been my pleasure t?< visit several cities having markets and they have always been <>t great interest to*me. 1 . '1 .' Ol' Ashville has a market in the basement of its city hall, which is on the public square. The custom of the place seemed to be for house keepers to go to market which is good ?s th? personal* equation has much to do with the best cuts of meat, even in Anderson, . Some hr dies carried their baskets while others had servants along tp carry them. . - The stalls were n<?t large but compact and it is wonderful to see how much is kept in one. They are kept very clean and' the ar rangement of most of them was truly artistic, everything being dis played to its best advantage. Many stalls had large refrigerators back of them. Arm??ur had the best stall in the middle of the market, where the choicest meats were ke p and served out by half o dozen men dressed in while linen caps, suits and shoes. Some stalls were tor vegetables and others for fruits, where the best Florida and California products were. kept. Some mountain eers had stalls where bundles of kindling and sassafras to fried pies were to be found. , Let us.ha\v a city market and that speedily. One Housekeeper. Anderson, S.
