A Correction.

The Charleston Republican of last Thursday
publishes a letter from its correspondent at
Anderson, giving an account of the public
meeting held at this place on saleday. This
letter is totally incorrect, but we learn that 1t
was based upon information derived from an
individual who was present, and who has thus
misled the Republicans correspondent by sheer
Misrepresentation, for it can be called by no
milder term. We are satisfied that the CORES
pondent will take an early opportunity OF rectl-
fyng the errors contained in his letter. or at least
SO much as is material, but we propose to point
ont the misstatements for the benefit of all con-
cerned-
The letter states that ''about forty men, all
white, responded to the call' for the meeting
The truth is, that several colored men were
present, and participated in the proceedings by
voting upon propositions before meeting.
1t is alleged that the editor of the lntelt'gen-
Ger explained the object to be to reclaim the
+ State from the present Administration by '0h'te
influence" The italics are used by the cores
pondent. We did not use the language here
ascribed to u.s. or anything akin to it.
No one held that it was useless" to appoint
delegates 70 the June Convention, but several
doubted the propriety of so small a meeting
making the appointment.
A resolutionw was offered to the effect that, in
the opinion of those present, it was unwise to
nominate State ticket, but this resolution was
not adopted, on being put to the meeting No
reason was assigned for the opinion expressed in
the resolution, and no one gave as reason fol-
this proposed action that probably Republican
now on the Bench would head the ticket," as is
alleged in the correspondents letter.
/ 1t was not stated "that the freedmen in the
county were becoming dissatisfied, principally
on account of the manner in which the school
matters have been managed"
With these 'trifing inaccuracies" the report
of the meeting was mainly correct. We do moi
wish to bring unmerited censure upon any per-
son, and would not take notice of this report
only that the whole tenor and tone of the meet
ing was grossly perverted. As we happened te
know the correspondent, we have sought infor'
nation from him as to the person who furnish,
ed him with such garbled statement OF the
proceedings We knew that the correspondent
was not present, and must have derived his in
| formation from others. Having obtained tho
desired knowledge, we are prepared to watch
the career of a man who would wilfully mis-
represent and malign others, especially as We
learn that he reiterates his former statements
and adheres to what we know to be false in ev.
cry particular.

For the anderson MtelHgcncer.
The Fork"

This portion of Anderson County derives its
name after the manner of its situation, as it
lies in that part of the County between Seneca
and Tugalo Rivers, and south of the county
line between Anderson and Oconee Counties.
There are two small villages in the Fork
Townvilc, on or near the county line, and An
dersonvillc, at the confluence of the rivers.
Townville has very pleasant situation. There
are two or three small stores here, doing fair
business. A very fourishing school is located
here. and conducted by Mr.. B. F. CAN'T, a
gentleman whose long experience in teaching
has rendered him well qualified to teach those
branches of English taught in the schools of
the country generally. Ever since he COM
menccd teaching here, which was in 1865, he
has received the appreciation of all who have
patronized his school. There is Baptist
Church at this place, and is at present under
the pastoral instruction of Rev. David SIM
mons a venerable minister whose effort with
some intcrmissions) to promote the interests of
the cause of God have been extended to the
church for many years.
Andersonvilc has its location among the
rugged hills, between the rivers. Little Bca-
Yerdam creek WINDS through tlicSc Hills, anu
empties itself into the waters of Tugalo River.
Beaverdam creek affords considerable water
power, and there are three Touring mills on
this creek, owned respectively by Col. f. E.
Harrison, DR.. w. l.. Broyles and MIR. George
Roof. These are all very good mills, but the
one lately brought into operation by DIR.
Broyles is, in our opinion, the best. Dr. Broyes
has also in operation a cotton gin, saw mill,
thrcshcr and blacksmith shop. He is doing a
considerable business. The watcr-powcr own
ed by him is, We believe, the finest the stream
affords.
The Fork is perhaps the healthicst part of
the county 1t is highly productive of wheat,
corn and cotton but the farmers give their
attention principally to the growing of cotton,
rs since the war this staple remuneratcs their
labors more abundantly than the other produc-
tions. ALlC.

anderson Farmers, Association.

The Executive Committee of the above
named society were authorized, in February
last, to offer special premiums for the best acre
of corn and the best acre of cotton, as follows
One ton of Baugh's Rawbone Phosphate to
be equally divided between the successful ccm-
petitors for the best acre (each) of corn and
cotton, grown by the use of this fertilizer; and
one ton of the Etiwan Fertilizer, on like con-
ditions Persons wishing to compete for these
premiums were required to notify the Secreta-
ry on or before the 10th of June, and to pay an
entrance fee of $a for the use and benefit OF
the Association. In consequence of the late
period al which many secured stand, the Ex-
ecutive Committee have determined to extend
the time for the reception of names until the
first Monday in July. All who desire to enter
the list of competitors, therefore, will forward
their names and the amount of 81 to the Sec
retary, JAMES A. HoYT on or before the 4th
day of July. The list is open for persons re-
siding in Anderson, Pickens and Oconee coun-
ties, agreeably to the original proposition.

Death of Another Citizen.

We are again called upon to record the death
of an esteemed, useful and honorable citizen OF
Anderson. Mr. A. G. JACKSON departed this
life at his residence; in this county, on Thurs
day night last, after long and painful illness,
aged about 5o.years. He is stricken down in
the midst of an active life, and is serious loss
to his family and the community at large. Mr..
JACKSON was native of Spartanburg, we be-
Ieve, and had resided in this county for the
past ten years. He was an Elder of the Pres
byterian church at Varennes, and adorned the
profession of Christian. He was worthy
member of the Masonic fraternity, and was
buried with the honors of that ancient institu-
ton, on Sunday morning. at Varennes church.
The funeral sermon was delivered by Rev. w.
F.:PEARsoN, in the presence of large con-
course of sorrowing friends and neighbors.

West Virginia.

The Democratic State Convention of West
Virginia assembled in Charlestown, the new
capital of the State, on the 7th inst, and was
largely attended. The platform adopted de-
mands the expurgation from the statute books
of every form of test oath and the restoration
of the ballot to the disfranchised, and declares
the white race to be the superior and ruling
race of this country. Hon. JOHN A. JACOBS,
of Hampshire county, was nominated for Gov
ernor. The election in West Virginia will be
among the most interesting of the coming fall.
1t is stated that about $4,000 white men are
disfranchised in that State, and the removal of
their disabilities is prominent issue in the
pending canvass The rapid gains of the Dem
ocratic vote, during the last few years, indicate
a hopeful result. In 1864, the Radical vote
was $4,000 against 10000 for their opponents,
and in 1868 the vote stood-Radical, $4,000
Democratic, 0,O0O-showing an increase OF
100 per cent. for the Democrats against SO per
cent. for the Radicals. It would thus appear
that the vote of young men is almost entirely
Democratic, and these who have attained their
majority in the past two years will, no doubt,
materially decrease the Radical majority next
fall.

South Carolina Monument Association

The annexed report for second quarter) Of
the receipts of the South Carolina Monument
Association ought to have appeared in our col
umns several weeks ago. We take pleasure in
giving it an insertion now, and express the
hope that the committee of ladies engaged in
obtaining subscriptions may be enabled to
forward additional contributions from Ander-
son at an early day. The receipts of the AS
sociation are already gratifying, but much
larger larger amount is needed, as the annual
meeting next fall will probably inaugurate
measures for the work of rearing a suitable
monument at once to the heroic sons of the
old Palmetto State, who fell in the discharge
of duty. We append the report

Premiums

The Executive Committee of the Anderson
Farmers Association have extended the time
for entering for the Premiums for Corn and
Cotton, to be grown by the use of the Etiwan
Fertilizer and Baugh's Rawbone Phosphate,
until the first Monday in July. They have
been prompted to this course by the late sea-
son at which many secured stand.
They hope there may be many entries, as
the fee of $500 is for the use of the Society.

Oregon Democratic.

The State election was held in Oregon on
the 5th inst. The entire Democratic ticket,
headed by GROVER for Governor, is elected,
and the Democrats have from five to eight ma
iority in the Legislature on joint ballot. This
secures the election of Democrat to the Uni
ted States Senate in place of Hon. GEO. II.
WILLIAMS, (Radical,) whose term expires in
in 1871. The indications are that Mr.. Ne
SMITH, formerly Senator from Oregon, will be
returned. The member of the House of Rep
resentatives is claimed by the Radicals, but
private, dispatches indicate that this claim is
not well-founded, and that the Democrats have
elected the member. In fact, there is a
clean sweep of the Radical party, as the pres
ent State government elected in 1866, is Radi-
cal and must now give place to their oppo-
nents, who will control the State for the next
four wears. The New York World, in refer
ring to this victory, says:
Oregon has elected the first member of the
Forty-second Congress. Mr.. James L. Slater,
the new Congressman, is Democrat, and his
election is good omen for the political char
acter of the next Congress- The Democratic
victory in Oregon, following as closely as it has
after the sweeping victory in this State. and
achieved as it was in spite of the efforts OF one
of the strongest politicians on the Pacific
coast-Senator Williams-is another proof OF
the turning of the political tide. Whatever
may be the result of the next Presidential
election, it is already evident that the next
House of Representatives is to be Democratic.

Death Of VIM. Gilmore sjmms.

We had scarcely put aside the pen from re-
cordine the death of England's immortal DICK
EMS, when the solemn announcement reaches
us that similar bereavement has fallen upon
our own people. WILLIAM GILMORE SIMMs,
the poet, historian and novelist, is dead. This
sad event occurred in Charleston, at the resi-
dence of his son-in-law, on Saturday last in the
sixty-ffth year of his age. The news will be
received sorrowfully in every part of the coun-
try, but more especially in the South, where
he was best known and most beloved. 1t was
with the Southern character that he dealt in
romance, poetry or history, and although his
fame was wide extended, it was here that he
was most thoroughly appreciated. 1t was
amongst his own people that the historian
searched for facts to weave together; the char
ming scenery and impressive events enacted in
Southland awoke the musings of the poet, and
the legendary accounts of our ancestry furnish
ed material for the novelists pen. But it was
here that the benevolent character of the man
shone conspicuous, and we do not doubt that
there are thousands whose hearts will be rent
at the thought that a kind friend has gone from
earth. The annexed brief but earnest tribute
to Mr.. SnlMs is copied from the Charleston
Neacs:
South Carolina has lost great man-one
who earned just distinction in every walk OF
literary life, who never faltered in his devotion
to the land which gave him birth; whose pious
care and mastery genius made of the past his
tory of the South living, breathing reality
who caused the manners and customs, the men
and women, "of the good old times" to dwell
with US again in the melodies OF his verse ano
the romantic splendors of his prose.
William Gilmore Simms, the veteran head Of
South Carolina literature, died in this city on
Saturday last. To him the State and the whole
South owe debt of gratitude that cannot soon
be paid. At least let him live in his works, and
in the kind thoughts and grateful remembrance
of the whole Southern people.

volume of ALEXANDER Fl. STEPHENS great
work on the recent war; This volume will soon

and appropriate dedication:
''To the memory of those whose lives, in the
Late war between the States, was sacrificed,
either in battle, in hospital, in prison, or else
where, in defence of the Sovereign Right of
Local Self-Governmcnt, on the part of the peo-
ple of the several States of the Federal Union ;
and in defence of those principles upon which
that Union was established, and on which alone
it or any other Union of States can be main
tanned consistently with the preservation of
Constitutional liberty throughout the country,
this volume is most solemnly and sacredy ded-
icated while others are to-day strewing flowers
upon their graves, this oblation, with like pur-
poses and kindred emotions, is thus contributed
by the author to the same hallowed shrine"

A GOLDEN EXAMrLE.-Thc Washington
correspondent of the New York World relates
the following incident:
During Mr. Cox's remarks in the House to-
day OH the Currency bill a laughablc scene
occurred. Mr.. Cox said that, to his ears and
to those of the Democratic party, the words
"gold and silver were as the sweetest music :"
and, at this point, Gctz, from the Berks County,
Pennsylvania, District, came over to the Speak
er and jingled good-humoredly in his face two
shining twenty dollar gold pieces. Cox, thank
ing Gctz for the dramatic effect which he had
given his speech, took the money, and holding
each piece in either hand showed it as Demo-
cratic money, to which, said he, we must soon
return-moncy which the good DANES of Berks
County and of the entire State Of Pennsylvania
had hidden away in shot-bags and stockings.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Cox's remarks, Paine,
Republican member of Wisconsin, openly
presented him with beautiful boquct of flow
ers, accompanied by few words of compli-
ment.
