MAY TERM OF COURT.

Our farmers specially and the citizens Of
Anderson County generally will be gratified
to learn that there will be no May term of
the Circuit Court for this County in the
present year. The members of the bar and
Judge Cooke have acted considerably and
commercially in omitting the expense and
loss of valuable time to the County which
is incident to term of Court at this busy
season of the year. The following is the
correspondence which passed between the
attorneys and the Judge upon this subject:
ANDERSON, S. c., April 25.
To Hon. 7. II. Cooke, Judge Of the Sth Judi
cial Cfrcua:
DEAR SIR: We the undersigned, members
of the Anderson bar, think the business Of
the county does not require that the regu
lar term of the court in May should be
held at this place. There is only one pris-
oner in Jail upon charge of assault and
battery with intent to kill, and we do not
think term of the court necessary to dis
pose of this case alone.
AS to the business on the civil side of the
court we think that that will not suffer by
being delayed until the fall term of court.
OHucl tiicoS CiACulStdHCCo, ~ mOuio pe
agreeable to the undersigned, that there be
no court. If your Honor concur in these
views, we respectfully request that you
would inform us at once of the fact, and ex-
tend the notice your Honor thought would
be necessary in such event.

DEATH FROM A FALL.

Charles Wardlaw, colored carpenter
living in Anderson, met with an accident
on last Tuesday morning by which he lost
his life. He was at work upon the addition
to the residence of J. C. Whitefeld, Esq,
and was standing upon mortar box, which
he had placed upon scafolding about
fourteen feet high to enable him to reach
the part of the dwelling upon which he
was working, when the nails which kept
the mortar box in its place gave way and
precipitated him over the scaffold. He
evidently struggled to catch, as the prints of
his feet were visible upon the plank about
the box, but was unable to save himself
He fell upon his head and broke his neck,
causing almost instant death, 50 that he
never spoke after the fall. DR.. Symmes was
Immediately sent for, and arrived in o very
short time, but nothing could be done for
him as he was dead. The deceased was an
industrious and well-to-do man of his race.

cANrArA At THE SOUTHERN HOME.

The beautiful Cantata, 'New Years Eve, u
was rendered to large and attentive audi
ence on last Friday evening, at the Southern
Home School for young ladies, under the
successful management of Mrs. ]. V. Moore
and Miss S. Y. Robinson, Principals, assist
ed by Miss Butler, formerly of Greenville
city. The young ladies were assisted by
some of the young men of the town. The
following is but brief synopsis of the
piece:
"Old Year" is impersonated by an aged
monarch on his throne, while "Old Father
Time" impatiently stands by his side, with
scythe in one hand and hour-glass in the
other. 'Time'' is induced to stay afew mo-
ments, while the -Four Seasons" entertain
him with picture-scenes from their expert
.ence. Spring" impersonated by Miss
Bette Keith, enters, and announces the first
picture ready. Tableau: "Crowning of the
May Queen" Miss Mays Sloan gracefully
kneels, while Miss Ella Martin crowns her.
Scene changes. Summer" impersonated
by Miss Josie Bleckley, enters and announ-
ces the second picture ready. Tableau: "a
Summer Picnic" Again the scene changes.
Autumn" impersonated by Miss Julia
Webb, enters and announces the third pic
ture ready. Tableau: "a Harvest Scene. 7"
at which stage Miss B. sings LAST Rose OF
Summer" with good effect. Lastly, "Win-
ter" impersonated by Miss Mays Sloan, en-
tiers and announces the fourth picture ready.
Tableau: 1.-THE Star of the East" with in
scription around it, "Peace on earth, good
will to men," A group of Shepherdesses
have arisen, and sing the beautiful anthem,
"Glory to God in the Highest"
Now the sand-grains run low in the hour
glass. The four Seasons, with their respec-
tive attendants and the different Months,
gather around, and sing Farewell Chorus
to the old Year." The "Young Year"
enters. 'Time" commands "Old Year. to
yield his throne, sceptre and crown. "Time"
places "Young Year" on the throne and
crowns him. Exit Time" and "Old Year," !"
while the Seasons and Months sing the well
come chorus to Young Year"
In addition, the stage and house were
beautifully decorated with graceful festoons
of evergreens and fragrant flowers, display
ing artistic skill and decided taste. The
music for the singers was furnished by Miss
Butler on the organ, accompanied by Mr..
Won Hasslen on the violin. The Anderson
Cornet Band was present, and gave forth
good music between the scenes. May its
members live long and 6low often. The
whole thing was complete success, and
who would wish to spend a more enjoyable
evening? The thanks of the community
are due to the ladies for so goodly an enter
tainment After the audience had dispersed
"Jack," who always has one eye to busi-
ness, was there to play for the young folks.
OF course they enjoyed it.

MAY WEATHER.

Those who have been anticipating the
beautiful skies and balmy weather of a
sunny May will read the following predic-
ton with regret if they place any confidence
in the prophets foreknowledge of the freaks
of the atmosphere. Prof Tice, who was
very accurate in his forecast of April wealth
er, has been figuring out the ethereal condi-
ton of mundane affairs for the month of
flowers, which is usually redolent with the
buds and blossoms of natures sweetest
flowers, with the following result:
"This month will be generally cloudy,
both in the East, West and the C.nadas,
with, however, occasional glimpses of the
sun. From the 3rd to the 4th, Sth to the
11th, 14th to 18th, 2lst to 23rd, and 26th to
18th, the weather will be at times clear,
with heavy weather predominating both
East and West"

troller General Thomas G. Dunn, in which
he announces that all taxes due for years

SPECIAL NOTICES.

The Scriptures say Naaman would not
believe when told that to be cured oflep-
rosy, he had only to bathe in the river
Jordan. His unbelief brought days of
suffering upon him, as it does upon those
who delay taking MERRELL's HEPATINE
for the Liver. When the skin and eyes
become yellow in the spring season, with
pains in the head and bones of the body,
and heavy feeling about the stomach
after meals; there is but one chance to
escape. Sickness of some sort is sure to
come, unless the bile and bad blood is
carried out of the system. Go to your
druggist, Messrs. Simpson & Sadler, and
get bottle of MERRELL's HEPATINE,
that cures all diseases of the liver.

GratuitOuS Advice.

This species of advice is not always accep-
table, but doubtless in many instances much
benefit would be derived were it promptly
acted upon. No section of the country is
exempt from disease and many regions has
its "ills that flesh is heir to-" To know the
best means of combating this common
enemy, with the least injury to our pockets
and tastes, is certainly great advantage.
At this season we must expect Torpid Liver,
congested spleen, yitiated bile and inactive
bowels, and all prudent persons should sup
ply themselves with TUTT's Liver PILLS,
which will stimulate the liver relieve the
engorged spleen, determine healthy flow
of bile, thus regulating the bowels and caus-
ing all unhealthy secretions to pass off in q
natural manner Remember that "an ounce
of preventive is worth more than pound

LOCAL MATTERS.
DEATH OF MRS. BoRsTEL.

The reaper Death has again invaded the
sacred precincts of happy home, and taken
its chief ornament away. On last Friday,
after an illness of several weeks, Mrs.
Cassandra h Borstel departed this Life, in
the 47th wear of her age. Mrs. Borstel came
to this town in 1s49 from Charleston, where
her parents resided, and entered as student
in the Johnston Female Seminary, and in
1850 was married to Maj F. G. v. Borstel,
since which time, with the exception of one
or two years during the war, she resided in
Anderson. Mrs. Borstel was intimately
connected with the educational interests of
the town for more than twenty years. She
was one of the teachers in Johnson Female
University, and occupied important posi-
tions in the literary and musical depart
ments of that institution when its prosperity
was second to no similar institution in the
State. For the last two or three years, she
has been in charge of the musical depart
ment of the Carolina Collegiate Institute,
and has aided materially in enhancing its
reputation. Her dignity, sound judgment
and requirements always gave her great in
fluence with the faculty of instruction, and
commanded the highest respect of the STU
dents. Many of the latter, in different parts
of the State, will hear of the death of their
beloved instructress with the deepest regret,
and while they will fondly cherish her
memory, they will commingle their SYM
pathy with the bereaved ones.
Mrs. Borstel was consistent and devoted
member OF the Baptist Church for q number
of years. Although her health was frail,
there was no enterprise which had for its
end the promotion of education or the ad-
vancement of the interests of the church
which did not enlist her heart and command
her energies. Her life was useful one.
Unselfish by nature, she lived to do good
unto others, and hence the universal esteem
in which she was held by the whole COM
munity. The very large attendance at her
funeral attests the appreciation of her worth
by all classes of our people. In the death
of Mrs. Borstel, the church has lost an
exemplary member and the community one
whose place it will be difficult to fill. In
all the relations of life she was most useful
and valuable, and while the loss to the COM
munity is great, none can estimate the void
in the hearts of the loved ones of her house
hold. All we can do is to sympathize with
them most deeply in their sore bereavement.
The funeral services were conducted atthe
Baptist Church on Saturday afternoon by
Rev. ]. S. Murray, in the presence of a
numerous congregation, whose fearful eyes
bespoke the estimation with which they re-
garded the deceased.

The Young Mems Christian Association
met in the Iateuigeneer rooms on last
Wednesday evening. The attendance was
larger than at the previous meeting, and q
commendable interest in the work was ex-
hibited by those present. The form of con-
stitution usually adopted by similar organi-
cations was adopted, with slight alterations
to make it conform to the wants of this in
dividual association. The committee on
place of meeting reported that they had
procured the Temperance Hall as tempo
rary place of meeting, and the Club decided
to meet on Wednesday night in that Hall,
at which time it was agreed to elect perma-
nent officers of the Association. The report
of the delegates to the State Convention was
received, and Mr.. G. F. Tolly was appointed
to read an essay at the next meeting on the
importance and benefits of this association,
after which the meeting adjourned.

THE VALUE OF CLASSICAL STUDIES.

This is the head of an article in the Ne,o
Englander for April, from the pen of Gov
ernor Chamberlain. It is the address he
delivered in Greenville last December, at
the delivery of the Whitsitt Greek prizes,
and has recently been issued in pamphlet
form. 1t Is finished production, and tes-
titles to its authors cultivated abilities.
The classics have always been admired and
studied in this State, and the Governors
commentator of them cannot fail to meet
the warm approval of the ripest scholars
throughout the land. Classical literature
elevates, strengthens and cultivates the
mind, and should be fostered and encour-
aged by all who appreciate education.
