FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION.

The Anderson Democratic Club as will
be seen by the reported proceedings, has de-
termined to observe the approaching ami
-yersary of American Independence in appro-
pirate style, and we learn that the Executive
Committee has gone to work with COM
mendable zeal to perfect the arrangements
for successful observance of the day. In
vitations have been extended to Gen. ]. B.
Kershaw, Gen. Samuel MCGOWAN and Hon.
W. D. Simpson to deliver addresses upon
the occasion, and it is hoped that all of
these gentlemen will accept, in which event
they may feel assured that the Democracy
of Anderson County will give them cordial
and enthusiastic greeting. 1t has been
many years since the descendants of the
heroes of the American Revolution in our
midst attempted to honor the natal day of
Independence, and we think it is happy
augury of the future that the Fourth of July
is to be re-established in this Centennial
year rs day of rejoicing and thanksgiving
among our people. We trust that every one
will lend cheerful assistance to whatever
measures may be inaugurated for the proper
observance of the occasion, and that our
friends from the country will unite with
the Anderson Club in large numbers on that
day. The Executive Committee has decided
upon q basket dinner, and the ladies are
earnestly solicited to cooperate in making
this feature q success. The programme of
the day will be announced in due time.

MURDER WILL OUT.

A negro calling himself Henry Lofts was
arrested some two months ago upon charge
of assault and battery with attempt to kill,
and in default of bail was committed to the
Jail to await his trial in the Court of Ses-
sions. He was not known in this commu-
nifty, and suspicion rested upon him as a
refugee from justice This suspicion led to
inquiries as to his former life, and on Tues
day last the developments pointed clearly to
his connection with murder in Gainesville,
Ga, some time last year. He has been iden-
titled by Mr.. W.. S. Cox, formerly citizen
of Anderson County, who now resides in
Gainesville, as a negro known in that place
as Henry Winters, who killed another negro
and fled from justice. Mr.. Cox is positive
in regard to the matter, We understand, and
was able to identify the man as Henry Win
tiers out of nine prisoners shown him at the
same time. The matter will be investigated,
and the authorities in Georgia will doubtless
take the proper steps to secure his transfer
to their jurisdiction at an early day. The
facts in this case prove that murder will
out" for there was very slight intimation
as to his true character when he stood pre-
liminary examination for assault and bat
terry two months ago, and the developments
since that time were purely circumstantial,
until Mr.. Cox came here upon private bust
ness, when he was requested to visit the
Jail, with the result already stated.

Martin Township Democratic Club met
on Saturday, May 9th, 1876, Robert Parker
presiding. The Club adopted the following
resolutions unanimously:
RESOLVED, That we request the Editors of
the htelltgcncer and Journal at Anderson to
devote column weekly to setting forth in
simple language the many reasons why the
colored people in the County should unite
with the white people in electing good hon
est men at the next election; and that the
patrons of these papers read or cause to be
read the same to the freedmen in their em-
ploy.
WHEREAS, We believe that many good
people in the County were deceived in vot-
ing for J. R. Cochran for Senator and have
regretted their action since; and, whereas,
we do not believe that he has ever, or does
now, represent the true sentiment of large
majority of the people of Anderson County |;
and, whereas, we fail to see how and when
he has acted for the good of his constituents
and, whereas, also we believe the constitu-
ents of any officer have right to ask his
resignation whenever he fails to truly repre-
sent them. Therefore be it
Resolred, That we join with the other
Clubs in the County in requesting him to
resign his office as Senator, and give a
chance for the election Of man who will
more truly represent the people in that high
and responsible position.

MURDER AT PENDLET0N.

A murder was committed in Pendleton OH
Tuesday evening, 3Oth of May. In an alter
cation which occurred between Jordan Evitt
and Sam Williams, both colored, the latter
was stabbed and died in few minutes. 1t
seems that these parties had difficulty
several days previous, and meeting in a
store on Tuesday the trouble was renewed
between them, fight ensued, and the result
was the death of Williams. Both parties
were mere boys, not more than fifteen years
of age. Trial Justice w. H. D. Gaillard
held an inquest over the body of the
deceased, and the jury rendered verdict Of
"willful murder" Evitt was arrested
promptly, and lodged in Jail at this place on
Thursday morning, to await his trial at the
next term of Court.

Maj. Moore offered the following pream-
BILE and resolutions, which were adopted:
WHEREAS, our brethren of the Brushy
Creek Club have differed with the action of
the Executive Committee as to the time of
primary elections; and, whereas, they ask
the clubs to over-rule the action of the COM
mittee in this particular, so as to bring on
the primary election at much earlier day,
say the middle of August next Therefore
be it
Resolved, That we approve of the action of
the Executive Committee ns wise and p-u-
Dental, and to the best interests Of the Dem-
ocratic party.
RESOLVED, That the Corresponding Secre-
tary send to the County Chairman of the
Executive Committee and to the Brushy

lutions.

preamble and resolutions, which, were
adopted:

deemed it inexpedient to carry out the in

barbecue and celebration on the 4th of July
at this place, &C.; and, whereas, this day
has at all times been observed and celebrated
as the Nations Birthday of American Inde-
pendence; and, whereas, we regard it duty
as well as pleasure to celebrate this the
one hundredth anniversary of American In

SPECIAL NOTICES.
A Flower that Changes its Color.

Botany is division of natural science
which treats of plants, and study of
Vegetable Physiology must be the foun-
dation of botanical knowledge study
only possible by the improvements in the
microscope and in organic chemistry. AS
plants are not scattered haphazard over
the earth, botanical geography must be
studied, and, with this, plant-history.
Botany will be applied to the wants of
everyday life, as in Agriculture, Horti-
culture or Medical Botany. Animals
often exhibit marvellous instinct in Sc
lecting medicinal herbs, and an observa-
tion of their habits has often, even in the
present time, led to most valuable discov-
cries. And should man, with his knowl-
edge and appliances, fail to discover less
than the brute? 1t is of Medical botany
we would speak, or of the HEPATINE
PLANT, discovered in Southern Nubia,
the Flower of which changes its color
with every change of the atmosphere.
The remarkable changes and variations
of this Plant and Flower have been for
years our special study, resulting in the
discovery of its possession of wonderful
medical. properties, the existence and
value of which have heretofore been en-
tirely unknown to medical science. Af-
ter much labor and scientific investiga-
ton, we have succeeded in extracting its
peculiar medicinal principles, which is
specific and cure for all diseases of the
Liver, Stomach and Bowels; a perma-
nent cure for Dyspepsia, Indigestion,
Spleen, Constipation, Jaundice, and all
Bilious Complaints. Of course we can
not send living Flower of this Plant to
all who read of Hepatine; butte all who
will send their address to MERRELL &
CoUDEN, Philadelphia, Pa, with three.
cent stamp for return postage, we will
send FREE a fac-simile of the Flower,
that will change its color just the same
as the real Hepatine Flower.
The Medicine, MERRELL'S HEPA-
TINE, for sale by SIMPSON & SADLER,
Anderson, S. G., and will cure all diseases
of the Liver.

ing over twelve inches long, and each plant
containing several squares or forms. On
Tuesday morning, Mr.. B. F. Crayton sent
us a stalk of cotton, upon which there were
well-defned squares, but our young friend
from the Concord section bears off the palm.
Both specimens are from the Cheatham
seed.
Speaking of cotton, the senior editor of
the htclligencer has fine cotton patch this
year, among other valuable possessions, and
he is preparing to meet hungry creditors
next fall with the stereotyped reply, "Wait
until sell my cotton" He has heard this
answer so often during the last ten years
that it has occurred to him as ridiculous not
to be in the fashion. Hence, the cotton
patch near his residence, in which so many
are taking a friendly interest.
A circular from Col Thomas Dodamead,
Superintendent of the Greenville and Co
lumbia Railroad, informs us that the accom-
modation train between Bolton and Ander-
son on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays
will be discontinued on and after to-day
until further notice. It has been great
convenience to the public for long time,
but the necessity for retrenchment OF ex-
penditures compels an abandonment for the
present of this convenience.
We regret to learn of the sudden death OF
Mr.. John R. Moseley, of Lowndcsville,
which occurred on the 5th inst, from an
overdose of morphine. He was about
thirty years of age, and was well known in
our community as an energetic and correct
business man. He has been in the employ
of different firms in Anderson for several
years, and all of his acquaintance will re-
ceive with sadness the news of his untimely
death.
The colored people met in their Baptist
Church on Tuesday night for the purpose OF
forming Temperance Society. Rev. James
A. Brown was called to the chair and ]. w.
Todd requested to act as Secretary. Rev. D.
E. Ericsson and Messrs. G. F. Tolly and
]. w. Todd were present by invitation, and
made short addresses. Good, sensible, short
speeches were made by several colored men
present, also. Upon a call for signatures,
forty. three persons came forward and signed
their names. The Society meets next Tues
day night in the Methodist Church.

REPLIES TO "a DEMOCRAT"
PENDLEroN, May %, 1876

PEEDLEToN, May ~, 1910.
MEssas. Ep1roRs; Will you permit me to
answer, on my part, an inquiry addressed in
your last issue to Messrs. Vahdivefi Orr
and Simpson, requesting us to say whether,
Il ifnoninated by the Democrats of Anderson
County, we would consent to serve another
term in the Legislature.
I do not desire to serve another term in
the Legislature, my political ambition, if l
ever had any, having been satisfied to the
fullest extent; but, still, do not desire to
shirk any Of the responsibilities, labors or
sacrifices incident 10 our present position
and to the canvass Just before us. Every
MN must do his duty if We expect to re-
store our State to her former prestige.
Should, therefore, the Democrats of Ander-
son County see proper to nominate and
elect me will not refuse to serve them.

MEssRs. EDITORS: In your issue of the
oath ult. see card signed "a Democrat"
asking Messrs. Vandiver, Simpson and my
self if we will run again if nominated. If
1 thought that I could be of service to the
County and State by returning to the Legis-
lature another term, would feel that it was
my duty to do so, no matter what the per-
sonal sacrifice might be, But am con.
vinced that an ADLER and more useful repre-
sentative can be selected, and one who will
not find the position so utterly distasteful.
For these reasons, have announced myself
as q candidate for Solicitor of this Circuit,
which position would give me an opportu-
nifty of attending closely to my profession,
and prove more pleasant and profitable.
If, however, the Democrats of this County
think that am better suited than others for
the Legislature, shall not endanger their
success in this County by refusing to accept
the position if elected, for consider DEM
ocratic victory in this campaign our only
salvation from total ruin and absolute deg
radiation.
Respectfully your obedient servant,

Popularity.

It is q self-evident fact that unless per-
son possesses sterling worth he will not have
the esteem of his fellow-men. 1t is true,
that for time he may deceive, but eventu-
ally his faults will be exposed.
This is applicable also to articles recom-
mended to the confidence of purchasers.
For brief period by false commentators
and glittering exterior, they impose on the
people, but as soon as tested they are cast
aside. The test of ten years has proven the
intrinsic worth of DR.. TUrr's HAIR DYE,
and to-day no preparation enjoys greater
popularity. From year to year the demand
for it has increased, and now it is in general
use both in this and foreign countries. No
stronger proof of its value could bee given.
