arrangements to have frelghts Wagoned 10
and from Central at reasonable rate, so
that they will be Independent in the future
of this railroad. There is very little freight
to or from Anderson at this time, but the
wagoning business will proceed in earnest
when the fall trade sets in. The merchants
ofPendleton will doubtless join in the move
ment.
The Flat Rock Democratic Club met on
the oath of June last, and was addressed by
James L. Orr, Esq. The Club endorsed the
action of the County Executive Committee
in reference to the time of holding the pri-
mary election. They also passed resolu-
ton complimenting Messrs. Orr, Vandiver
and Simpson, and recommending them for
another term. The Club adjourned to meet
at2p. IN. on the fourth Saturday in July.
The Greenyille and Columbia Railroad
Company has, for the last week, been deliv-
ering freights to this point by wagons from
the break in the road at Broadway trestle.
Where the freights were received before the
break they have been delivered without ad-
ditional charge to the consignees, but the
wagon charge Of fifteen cents per hundred
pounds will be added to the regular rates on
all goods shipped to this point before the
road is in running order again.
On last Saturday, the LIST of July, the first
cotton blooms of the season were sent US.
In the morning Willis Redmond, colored,
sent white bloom, taken from his field,
and in the afternoon Joseph Lee, colored,
brought us red bloom from his field, on
Senator Cochran's farm near town. This
puts Joe ahead on the bloom question, SO far
az we have heard in this County. We are
clad to see commendable interest i'll agri-
cultural industry displayed by some of our
colored citizens, and hope that their e1-
ample will be followed by more OF their
race

Of the U. s. Circuit Court has returned

New YORK, Feb. "A heavy gale
prevails here to-day and telegraph COM
munication north and south is broken
in many places. In this city signs, hats
and wells are flying freely through the
air. Dispatches from outside reports
the carrying away of roofs and steeples
in Washington. The fercest Of the blasts
awakened many persons who sought
security in lower rooms of their dwell
ings. The tower OF the Methods
Church is several feet out Of perpendi.
cular, and great crowds are in the neigh.
borhood awaiting its fall. In Philsdel
phia there is much damage at the Centen

Hall and New York state building is
considerably injured. A three story
frame structure at 41st street and Elm

The LIFTING MATcH.-We have these
additional particulars Of the lifting
match at Eureka from the Sentinel. The
result has been given our readers through
the telegraph:
The lifting match with IA pound dumb.
bells, between Ned Brennan and Chas.
Allen, commenced last evening OF 8
O'Clock, at Bigelow's Hall. Judge and
counters were appointed. and the con-
testants started in upon their work. rails
ing their arms simultaneously with q
uniform movement and keeping along
together, the same tallies indicating
each of their scores. At 1880 O'Clock
they had each scored upwards of Z 900.
and as neither exhibited signs Of weak
ening there is no telling when they will
stop. Although Brennan is the favorite,
bets being freely offered on him with
but few takers, it is evident that he hat
met nearer his match than he has evel
encountered on the Base Range. 1T ii
thought that the winning party will hav'
to raise the weight upwards Of 1900
times.
Later.-The match closed at 8 o. m.
