Anderson Court.

:, The January term OF the Circuit
Court for Anderson County began on
Monday lust, His Honor, Judge
Thompson S. Cooke, presiding. Upon
the organization of the Court, the
Clerk read the commission of Judge
Cooke, to fill the unexpired term Of
Hon. James L. Orr. Also, the conf.
missions of Absolem Blythe, Esq, as
Solicitor of the Eighth Circuit, John
w. Daniels as Clerk, and VIM. McGu-
kin as Shcriff of Anderson County.
The Grand jury was organized with
Samuel J. Emerson as Foreman, and
His Honor proceeded to charge the
members as to the nature and extent
of their duties. He believed that the
change in the law, which makes grand
jurors serve for the whole year, was a
wise and judioious regulation, as it.
enabled them to become familiar with
the duties expected of them. He
was very much gratifed to find that
Anderson County was in Q healthy
financial condition, and he had no
doubt that one OF the great causes
leading to this result was that the
grand iuries have heretofore dischapg-
ed their trusts, and held public officers
to strict accountability. Anderson
was now the banner County of the
State, and it behooves the grand jury
to scrutinize the actions of these
officers that they may continue to
fulfill their obligations to the public,
He desired them to give particular
attention to Trial Justices, whose

Try the Etiwan Guanos !

N7W1HITE BROTHERS are now
v v prepared to furnish the Ell
WAN FERTILIZERS to planters on
the most reasonable terms. They can
furnish certificates from the most relia-
bIe men showing that the use Of the
Etiwan Fertilizers has increased their
crops from one hundred to four hundred
per cent.
They would call special attention to
the ETIWAN DISSOLVED BONE,
which is growing more and more popu-
lar every year as an excellent fertilizer.
This is used for composing with Cotton
Seed and Stable Manure, and those who
have tried it, cheerfully testify to its
merit. BY the use of it, two tons OF
manure can be secured at o less cost
than one ton Of the Standard Fertilizers.
The earlier the compost is prepared the
better, hence we would advise all our
friends who contemplate using the
Dissolved Bone to send in their orders as
soon as possible,

A TRIBpTE.-We owe thanks to our MEM
ber for the latest Patent Office report. We
already have sixteen hundred Of these interes-
ting volitmes in our little library; but they
have been read and re-read so many times
that we know every page of them by heart
This new volume came opportunely on Satur-
day morning, and that night we gathered the
family around the table and read it through
to them. The affecting tale entitled :. In
provement in Monkey Wrenches' seemed to
touch every heart, and when we came to the
climax of the story about Reversible Pie
boards, there was not a dry eye in the room.
During the reading of the piteous narrative
entitled "Gum Washers for Carriage axles,''
the whole family gave expression of bolster
ons emotion, and the bired girl was SO excited
that she lost her presence Of mind and went
around to her mothers inadvertently witlisix
pounds of sugar and butter kettle full Of
-FOUR and came home at midnight intoxicated.
We can never sufficiently thank Mr.. Storm
for the Innocent employment thus furnished
us. The memory Of that happy evening viii
linger in our minds very much longer than
the hired girl ever fingers when she lights on
a lot of substance Which she thinks will suit
the constitution of her aged parents Ea-

Oysters do not constitute pleasant hot
weather topic, but there are some interesting
facts deducted from experience. They came
to light through the official investigation I'M
stituted into the affairs of an Apgo- Americas
company formed for the purpose Of importing
American oysters into England, and the in
teresting facts in natural history were brought
out In the evidence given by the company's
manager who has largely imported oysters
from the States Of New York, Maryland and
Virginia, and stated that oysters which had
been thirty days on the voyage had been
imported with a mortality not exceeding 1tI
per cent. when shipped in bulk. Unless the
cargo be ventilated, heat was generated and
mortality then became considerable. Out o..
one hundred varieties Of American oysters six
only will stand importation. SO that to en-
joy American bivalves, John Bull must colns
