EIourinq Mills.

We are indebted to Mr.. J. Willett Provost
for sack of Flour, ground at Belevedere
Mills, now owned and controlled by him, and
formerly known as Smiths Mills. This speci-
men of Flour will compare favorably with the
best brands from the most famous Western
mills, and shows the superior quality of the
machinery, which is entirely new, we believe.
Certainly, we have not seen such light, creamy
biscuits upon our table in some time as graced
the matutinal meal after the reception of this
acceptable present. We learned, incidentally,
that the wheat, from which this Flour was
made, was grown by our friend, Mr. ]. T. Viii
son, and competent judges pronounced it very
superior. But the "Bellevedere" can make
good -four, whether or not the grain is the best,
and we take pleasure in commending MIR. Pre-
vost to the patronage of the community.

LETTER FROM HORACE GREELEY.--The
Hartford (Conn.) Times, of June 26, contains
the following letter to a gentleman in that
State Though it was never intended for pub
lication, the gentleman to whom it was ad,
dressed has deemed it of sufficient interest and
Importance to justify its publication:
NEW YORK, juno II, 1872
\ I have no possible claim to Demo-
cratic support, and never made any. The
Democrats will, of course, be governed by a
consideration of their own interest. 1t is no.
wise proper or probable that they should be
influenced in making their decision by any
consideration personal to myself, and if they
could be do not desire it. Hence l have said
nothing to any Democrat unless he first ad-
dressed me- and, even then, l have gone no
further than to say that, if l should be elected,
would treat all those who supported me alike,
not asking whether they had been in the past
Republicans or Democrats. Il
Yours, HORACE GREELEY.

IMPORTANT TO PENs1oNER:.-Th following
circular has been issued by the Acting Com
missioner of Pensions:
Persons who are already pensioned under an
act of June 6, 1866, at either of the rates of
fifteen, twenty or twenty-five dollars, are en-
titled by an act passed June s, 1872, to in
creased rates, and may secure such increase
without formal application and without the in
tervention of an attorney, nor will any attor-
neyships be recognized in such cases. A letter
from the pensioner pensioned as above, his
present pension certificate, and giving his post
Office address, will be sufficient claim for the
increase. The certificate will receive such en-
dorsement by this Office as will authorize the
payment of the increased rate, and will then
be forwarded to the pension agency at which
the pension is payable, and the pensioner will
be notified of such transmission.

A MANLY AND PROPER LETTER.-The fol-
lowing is copy of letter sent by Hon. David
Davis to the President of the Columbus Con-
vention, declining the nomination for Presi-
dent.
Mn Dear Sir The National Convention of
Labor Reformers on the 22nd of February last
honored me with the nomination as their can
didate for the Presidency. Having regarded
that movement as the initiation of policy and
purpose to unite the various political elements
in a compact opposition, consented to the use
of my name before the Cincinnati Convention,
where distinguished citizen of New York was
nominated.
Under these circumstances deem it proper
to retire absolutely from the Presidential con-
test, and thus leave friends who were generous
enough to offer me their voluntary support
free to obey their convictions of duty, unfet-
tered by any supposed obligation. Sympathiz-
ing earnestly with all just and proper measures
by which the condition of labor may be eleva-
ted and improved, am, with great respect,
your fellow-citizen,
DAVID DAVIS.

pg Gov. Scott, Comptroller Neagle and
Superintendent Jillson, says the Union Times,
passed up the railroad last Wednesday, on
their way to attend the examination of the
pupils in the Cedar Springs Deaf and Dumb
Asylum. We believe that this is the first
time the Governor has honored the terrible
Ku Klux region by his presence. Scott, who
has frequently stated that he would not be a
candidate for reelection, is now the most
probable nominee of the Grant Radicals of the
State. We have all along felt confident that
ehe ''ring' in Columbia dare not let one OF
their gang get out of the traces. So long as
they hang together there is no danger that
their villainies will be exposed; but should an
honest man be put in either of their positions,
there would be no security for the others, out
side of Gen. Stolbrand's asylum for rogues.

The Political Outlook in South Carolina.
The following is from the Missionary Record,
Daddy Gains paper, and should be carefully
read, so far as it relates to change of State
officials:
Now that we have Grant and Wilson fairly
in the field, and we are settled as to our Ma
tional standard-bearers, it is well that we turn
to our dear old State once more, and see what
is left of her-see whether there is enough left
of her that may be saved, and what are the
chances for her redemption and resuscitation.
The sands are moving rapidly, which shall pro.
claim the exit of the present incumbents OF
offices in this State-a new dealing out OF re-
sponsibilities will be made by the people. It
behooves them to be wise in the choice of their
rulers for the coming two and four years.
There is now an opportunity for the people to
change the whole Of the State officials, and it
is their duty to do so if they be not satisfied
with the present administration. We cannot
foretel what shall be the changes on the polit-
ical chess-board there will doubtless be suf-
ticicnt number of candidates for every Office in
the State For Governor there are, as we learn,
four prominent aspirants in the field for Treas
urer, there are dozen aspirants; for Comp
troller General, there are host of seekers; for
| SCCICldIy VI Sldlc, duQ <1llCuuSy OCuOidiJ thO
numbers are legion; for Lieutenant Governor,
the pathway is strewn with white, black and
speckled; for State Superintendent of Educa-
ton there are not so many, as there is not much
care about the education of the negroes in this
State. The policy in this direction seems to
be, the more ignorant the better they are man
aged by the wire workers in politics. The SAL
ary, and what per centage there may be made
on the purchase of books, are the only induce
ments to this office. Who the lucky dog will
be that shall take charge of this department of
business is not yet known, it will doubtless be
some lazy lubber, who has not energy enough
to 20 out of the rain, much less attend to the
education of the hundred and seventy thousand
of children in this State.
There is to be regular scrub race for Con-
gress, whole team of four in hand, and fast
nag on the single track for the State at large,
under the new apportionment. Then come our
Legislative aspirants, who will keep time to
the music of six dollars per day. Then Coun-
ty Commissioners and School Commissioners
for each County. Then come Sherifs and
Coroners for each County-al these will have
their interests to subserve, and will keep q
sharp lookout for themselves
Will the people please take notice, and GOV
ern themselves accordingly? 1t is for them to
make the selections at the polls this fall. Let
them not have any complaints after the close
of the polls on the day of election. Let them
discuss on the merits of every candidate before
| he is elected.

End of the Seventh Volume.

With the present issue Of the IatelHgencer,
we close up the seventh volume since the war.
The tolls and perplexities in publishing news
paper for seven years can only be appreciated
by those blessed with that amount of expert
ence in the business. In season and out OF
season, we have steadily pursued the even tenor
of our way, and have been nobly sustained by
the. good people of Anderson County. 1t
woald be folly to claim that we have made no
mistakes and committed no blunders in this
position.. But we can reasonably declare that
our purpose has been 70 use the power of a
journalist for the best interests of the whole
people; and.to this end we have labored unre-
mittinely for the material advancement and
progressive enlightenment of our readers. 1t
is for them to say with what success oar efforts
have been crowned This much We know,
however, and can speak of with freedom, that
the Intelligencer has constantly gained. acces-
sions to its list Of supporters, until now its
subscription ranks third on the roll of country
newspapers in the State according to the latest
reliable information. 10 build up and extend
our circle of readers will be constant endeavor
in the future, and in this work we ask the Co
operation of ell our friends. The extremely
low price aT WHICH we propose 70 senu rne pa
per hereafter ought to induce every citizen to
become subscriber. We shall be most happy

Bile thunder storm prevailed in this section.
Up to writing we have not heard of any dam
age that accrued, except that in our town
horse was afrighted by terrific peal of thun-
der and ran, doing considerable damage to the
buggy to which he was hitched. Fortunately
the parties who had been driving him had just
alighted from the buggy to seek shelter from
the storm when the horse took fright. The
rain here was light, but to all appearances in
the Southern and Southeastern portion Of the
