Death of Wm. E. Mikell.

We are deeply panied to record the death of
this prominent young Charlestonian, which
occurred on Tuesday, 23rd of August, after a
painful illness. Mr.. Mikell was promising
and talented young lawyer, held in high esteem
by his brethren of the bar and the community
generally. He was an honorcd member of the
Masonic fraternity, and enjoyed the confidence
and esteem of its members throughout the
State. AS friend, he was generous and devo-
ted; and as citizen, patriotic and unsclfsh.
We knew him and admired his manly charac-
ter, and would offer this brief tribute to his
memory. We endorse the Charleston Ncms in
saying that mo man of his age was more trusted
or loved; nor was it doubted that his ability
and industry would make his maturcr years
profitable to himself and honorable to his ma
tive State"

Varennes Township.

The meeting called at Flat Rock on last
Saturday, for the purpose of electing delegates
to represent Varennes township in the County
Convention, was slimly attended, and it was de-
termined by those present to call another meet
ing for Friday afternoon, September End, at
four o'clock, when it is hoped that there will
be more general attendance of the people.
1t is very important that all the townships
should be represented on Monday next, at the
adjourned meeting of the County Conventions
and we would earnestly urge the citizens OF Va
rennes township to attend the meeting to-mor-
row at Flat Rock Every consideration ofduty
and patriotism suggests the importance of unity
and harmony in the selection Of candidates for
the various offices, and only full representa-
tion of the people can secure these objects.

The Air Line Railroad.

The spartanburg Spartan says that the sur
veyors of the Air Line Railroad were in town
last week, and intend commencing to locate the
road permanently from that place to Kings
Mountain. Contracts will soon be let out for
that portion of the route. A mortgage has
been executed by President Buford for $780,
900, which required $500 of revenue stamps.
This looks like business.
The Greenvillc Enterprise has been informed
by gentlemen just from Spartanburg that the
engineers of this road have passed Spartanburg
on their route to Grccnville. The road has
been definitely located to Broad River, crossing
it above Cherokee Ford, leaving Kings and
Crowder's Mountains about two miles to the
north, and will cross Pacolet some mile and q
half above the Iron Works. They expect to
reach Grccnvillc in four or five weeks.

Rural Carolinian for September.

This splendid number is a fitting close to the
first volume of one of the ablest and best con-
Quoted agricultural periodicals which has ever
appeared in this country. Opening with val
liable illustrated article on Hedging, which
cannot be too attentively studied by the
Southern farmer, it follows it up with contri-
buttons on EARN Life in Brazil, !" "Sugar Far
ming" "Port Wine Country" 'sWinter Pas
tures," and other subjects of equal interest, all
treated in thoroughly practical and interes-
ting manner. An illustrated article on Cab
bagc Insects is of especial value to our far
mers' wives and our gardeners. In the Pomo-
logical Department the magazine has gained a
great accession to its contributors in Mr.. P. j.
Berckmans, of Augusta, Ga, so we'll known
throughout the South as q good authority on
the subjects about which he writes. Col. Aiken
again fills number of pages, and no agricul-
tural magazine can fail to be interesting that
has the benefit of his facile pen, backed by his
practical experience. We are sincerely glad
The Rural Carolinian has met with such mark
ed success, because it shows that our people
can appreciate what is really good, even if it
does come from home.

KEEP TT BEFORE THE PEOPLE.

On the 18th day of March, 1870, Judge James
L. Orr was interviewed by a correspondent OF
the New York Tribune, and gave utterance to
the following severe denunciation of the Rad
ical party, with which he is now associated:
s'The results ofsthelast three years have sat-
isfed the people that all the present evils OF
which they complain might have been averted
byshowing to the colored voters that they intend
to maintain their new rights. Large numbers
of the best men in South Carolina are even now
willing to espouse Republican principles, ana
would doubtless do so but for the dist1@st'0'acn'
as gentlemen of character and intelligence, they
nuturalzv entertain toward those aoho, By accident
al circumstances, hare been placed in the lead Of
the Republican party-naen who do not, and
nsrer did enjoy public confidence; men '0h0 are
IGNORANT, corrupt, dishonest and unfit, By reason
of their early associations, for decent society
they were adroit enough, however, to make the
more ignorant among the negroes believe them
to be their best friends, and By employing all the
arts of the demagogue, and an umscrupul0us ass
of disgracefuz agencies, they succeeded in being
elected to the most important Offices in the
State"

A NOBLE BENEFAcTIoN.-Th Trustees Of
the Louisville Medical College louisville,
Ky.) have created one of the most liberal and
noble benefactions ever conferred by a public
institution upon any people, The Trustees Of
this college have instituted one beneficiary
scholarship to each Congressional District in
the Southern and surrounding States. By this
means very many poor but deserving young
men will be enable to obtain thorough medi-
cal education. Any young man wishing to-
take advantage of this benefaction has only to
write to the Representative of the Congress
sional District in which he resides, or to the
President of the Medical Society of his State,
or to DR.. E. S. Gallard, Dean of the Faculty Of
the Louisville Medical College, Louisville, Kyy
when he will receive fall information Of all
that it is necessary for him to do to secure one
of these scholarships. With proper and well
come delicacy, the names of those who have
secured the beneficiary scholarships will be
known only to the Dean of the Faculty. It is
unnecessary to commend those who have es-
tablished those noble beneficiary scholarships.
Their act will bring them commendations
wherever it is known.

Judge Orr and the Anderson 1ntelligencer

We find the following paragraph in the Daily
Republican of last Saturday:
Ex-Governor Orr being absent in New
York, the Anderson GntelGgencer feels it safe to
pounce upon his letter pretty sharply. But
suppose Governor Orr should return suddenly
and speak the name of certain railroad in the
ears Of the startled editor What then %
We have only brief reply to make at this
time to the Republican, as Judge Orr has not
vet returned from New York, so far as we are
informed, and a full and explicit response
might concern him personally.
las to the absence of Judge Orr when the
comments upon his letter appeared in our COL
umns, we desire to say that it will afford us
pleasure, if Judge Orr wishes to read our esti-
mate of his political course upon his return
home, to furnish him copy, gratis.
2. If the Charleston Daily Republican, Judge
Orr, or any one else, wishes to discuss railroad
matters we are ready for them. 1t would graft
fy us to show how we were misled and deceived
into support of the proposition to transfer
the Greenville and Columbia Railroad stock
from its original owners into the hands Of acer-
tain Ring. Judge Orr's connection with that
transaction has not been fully ventilated, and
if it is desirable on his part, or that of his new
political bed-felows, to attack the editor of this
paper for any supposed completely in the
scheme to obtain control of that stock, we wish
it distinctly understood that they are entirely
welcome to begin the fray.

Political Meeting.

In accordance with the published announce
ment to that effect, large A1;raber OF citizens
assembled at old Deep Creek, eight miles west
of Anderson, on Saturday last. The crowd was
estimated at two hundred and fifty persons, and
among the audience there was goodly proper
ton of ladies. When the township meeting
had been concluded, the assemblage was called
to order by the appointment of Mr.. John E.
Breazeale to preside. In explaining the object
of the meeting, Mr.. B. delivered q short and
appropriate address, which was we'll received.
Political speeches were then delivered by
Messrs. James A. Hoyt, John B. Moore and
Wm. D. Evins in the order named The last
named gentleman appeared for the first time
before the citizens of Anderson county in this
public capacity, and made splendid impress
sion upon his hearers. When the speaking was
ended, the ladies prepared the tables and sup
piled them with profusion of edibles, to which
ample Justice was done by the entire crowd.
Good order and decorum was observed through
out the dav, and we trust that beneficial results
were attained in behalf of the Union Reform
movement. The people are in earnest respec-
ting their opposition to the present Admins
tration and its abuse of power, and we believe
that the citizens of Centreville township will
discharge their duty fearlessly III the coming
election All past differences seem to be for
cotton in the general desire for an honest and
economical administration of public affairs,
and the security of peace and prosperity to
every citizen of our beloved State.

The Masonic Fair.

We are glad to learn that there is wide
spread interest manifested in the proposed Ma
sonic Fair which will be held at this place du-
ring the ensuing fall, and that the ladies
throughout this section are busily engaged in
preparing to make it a grand success. Not
only the wives and daughters Of Masons are
rendering their assistance in the matter, but
generous women not connected in this manner
withathe fraternity are lending their efforts to-
wards sustaining the movement. We have no
doubt that proper exertions will secure the ut
most zeal and interest in the Fair, and it-be-
hooves the committees appointed to solicit do
nations to enter upon the work actively and
energetically. 1t will be remembered that the
object is to raise money to liquidate the mort"
gagged debt now hanging over the Masonic
building, in order that the fraternity may be
once more at liberty to dispense charity with an
unstinted hand, and in this praise worthy effort
we are confident that the good wishes and ear
nest cooperation of a iberal-minded public
will besobalned. Members of the committees
on doaations both ladies and gentlemen, are to
be furnished at once with lists appropriately
headed, and we hope to hear good report from
every quarter.
A preliminary meeting of the ladies who
have been appointed to solicit donations was
held on Tuesday afternoon, and the following
resolution was unanimously adopted:
Resolced, That a call be made for all the Ia,
dies on said committee to meet at Masonic Hall
on Monday next, at IL o'clock, for the purpose
of consultation.
The committee of gentlemen are likewise re-
quested to meet Col. R. S. Hill, Chairman of
the Committee on Donations, at o'clock on
the same day.
