BRIEF MRETI0H.
Msj. Borstel wishes to sell a couple ofsec
ond-hand pianos, and win auction them
on Monday next, unless previously sold.
After an illness Of several weeks, Mr. G.
A. Reed is again at his post, ready to meet
the wiints Of friends and customers. All In
debted to him will find it profitable to heed
the announcement in another column.
,Weregret to announce the death Of Mn
Polly White, wife Of the late Bartholomew
White, Of this County, which event occurred
on Friday last Mn. White was one Of the
oldest ladies in our County, having been
born In 1870. Her remains we're inferred in
Hopewen buryins- ground on Saturday after-
noon.
The Governor has pardoned Charley CAL
houn, who was convicted Of yagrancy at
the spring tarm of our Court. What his
reasons for such pardon were We do not
know. If he continues to be as gracious
with the pardoning power as he has been
recently, he may yet hope to rival the cele-
,brated Moses.
Rev. A. n. Experiden, the Bulgarian
Priest, lectured to q small audience in the
Court House at this place on last Thurs
day night. The subject matter Of his ad-
dress was very good, but his delivery was
at times indistinct. his appearance CORES
ponds very much with the description Civ
en- Of him last week.
"A handsome tombstone has been erected
over the grave of Capt. James N. McFall,
in the Bsptist church yard, as memorial
ofthe virtues and excellence Of q good man,
whose memory viii be cheriahed by oil who
knew him. The marble work is well exc
cuted and reflects credit upon the establish
ment Of Messrs, White & Featherston.
The public are invited to call and examine
the large and fine stock of cooking and heat
ing stoves for sale at the store Of Messrs.
GilreaEh & Peoples. They have on hand all
styles, and ars prepared to furnish tinware Of
any description. Parties wishing stores or
tinwase repaired can have 1t cheaply and
satisfactorily done ut their store. They also
pay this highest price for rag,, beeswa1, &c.
The Temperance hot supper, which is to
come of infAnderson during the Christmas
HOLIDAYS, promises to be great success.
Already q considerable amount has been
subscribed IN money, and many oontribu-
tions of articles have-been promised. We
hope the enterprise Of the Anderson Division
win meet q hearty encouragement from our
citizens, and that their attempt to re-funish'
their new hall win prove q complete success.
The bridge across Rocky River near town
Is still uncompleted, owing to mistake
which occurred among the contractors in
not adjusting properly the distance between
the piers, so that the timbers prepared ac-
cording to specifications were not long
enough to reach from pier to pier. This has
bean an unfortunate mistake for Anderson,
as goody portion ofthe cotton trade from
beyond the river has been compelled to seek
other points. We learn that tnnbers Of the
requisite length are being prepared, and will
shortly be placed in position, when the
bridgewill be completed with the utmost
rapidly:
We had the pleasure Last week Of nesting
in Coflmbia with Col. Henry D. Caperu, "a
son Of the late Bishop Capers,) whose recol-
Iections of Anderson are fresh and green,
and whose return to his native State Is
warmly Welcomed by all his friends and
army comrades Col. Capets is an able and
experienced lawyer, and wetrust hispractice
may be commensurate with his merits. He
is settled for the present in Columbia, and
will radiate among the rural districts occa-
sionally, which will include Anderson one
ofthese days, when his old friends and boy
hood associates will gladly greet his genial
presence amid familiar scenes.
Some excitement was created upon the
public square on Tuesday by the appearance
of Mr.. J. A. Jolly, who was bearing large
eagle with him, which had been killed by
him on the previous afternoon, near his res
idence above town. Mr.. jolly related his
experience for the benefit ofthe crowd, who
were anxious to learn every particular con-
cerning the novel sport of shooting eagles,
which is an extremely rare occurrence in
this section, although We reported one last
week. Many coniectured that these were
mates, as it IS we'll known; that the habit Of
the eagle is to pair off, which union appears
to last for life. This specimen Of the eagle
was rather under the size of that killed by
Mr. Newton, measuring only six feet seven
inches from tip to tip, and its bill two and q
half inches long: Thseagle usually exhibits
cowardice, when it is suddenly surprised or
meets with unexpected resistance, but Mr..
Jolly informs us that this one showed fight
to large degree, after he wounded it the
first time, when It was upon the ground.
