and then wait for results.
Capt. A. T. Broyles has the finest patch OF
clover that we have seen anywhere this sea-
son. The Captain displays the same
thoroughness in gardening for which he IS
justly noted in the legal profession OF TINS
portion Of our State.
There will be quarterly Grange meeting,
held with Harper's Grange, on the second
Saturday in May next, at 9 o'clock a. m,
at which time an address and an essay is e1-
pected from the delegates from each OF the
Oranges participating in the meeting.
The foot bridge on Main street at the
Northern corner of the Carolina Collegiate
Institute lot is badly in need OF q few new
plank. It is dangerous for pedestrians to
pass it after dark without exercising care.
The sidewalk up the hill also needs atten-
ton:
We are requested to announce that "a Priest
of the Catholic faith, who can speak the
Polish and German languages, will be IN
Anderson at some time during the month
of May to minister to the spiritual wants OF
the Catholic emigrants speaking those Ian
guages in this section.
Mr.. o. H. P. FAINT, the popular chairman
of our board of County Commissioners, laid
upon our table yesterday stalk of full
headed wheat thirty-seven inches high,
taken from his farm near town. His wheat
crop is very fine, and shows that he under
stands the successful culture of this impor-
tant cereal.
Mrs. Jane Todd, of our town, sent US some
fine ripe strawberries on last Tuesday, which
were grown in her garden. These were the
first we have received this season, and were
fine specimens of this delicious fruit. Mrs.
Todd usually has fine and well cultivated
garden, which begins its yield of good things
early in the season.
We were pleased to see on last Sabbath
afternoon that Mr.. s. 81. Langston had sufh-
GENTLY improved from his long and serious
attack of paralysis to take short ride IN q
buggy. Mr.. Langston is still very feeble,
but we trust he will now soon be able to go
about and attend to business.
Eight shares of the stock of the Anderson
National Bank sold this week for $1,000,
which is at the rate of 125 for 100. This
shows that the corporation is in very
flonrishing condition, and that it possesses
the highest confidence of capitalists. The
Bank has done very successful business,
and stand to-day among the first Banks in
the up country.
John E. Breazeale, Esq, has sold his resi-
dence in the Northeastern portion of Ander-
son to Mr. J.B. Provost and purchased the
residence Of Mr.. E. L. Clark, in the Southern
portion of town, adjoining the Carolina Col
legiate Institute property, where Mr.. Provost
has been living. We learn that these gen.
tlemen will remove to their respective new
homes in short time.
Mr.. John Major, son of Mr.. Wesley
Major, who lives near Sandy Springs, died
on Monday, 18th instant. The funeral ser
vices were conducted by Rev. ]. T. Attaway
on the following afternoon at Sandy Springs
Church, after which the body was returned
to mother earth. The young man, we be-
lieye, was mute. The mourning relatives
and friends of the deceased have our warm-
est sympathy in their bereavement.
The Mosely House in Greenville is one of
the best hotels in the up-country. 1t is
kept by Col. G. F. Mosely, whose kindly
disposition and afable demeanor always
leave q favorable impression upon the guests.
The hotel is conveniently located, the
charges are exceedingly moderate, and the
attention one receives cannot be surpassed
The table is supplied with the best afforded
by the Greenville market, and Mrs. Mosely
gites her personal supervision to the dining
room.
We do not know whether the municipal
authorities, in view of the war between
Russia and Turkey, have determined to
fortify the town of Anderson or not; but
we do know that the rampant of rock erec-
ted across Main street in front of Senator
Cochran's by the street hands is quite formi-
dahle in its resistance to conveyances of all
descriptions. We sincerely trust that no
other such useless and inconvenient en-
trenchment will be deemed necessary for
the safety of the town.
Many OF our readers are not aware that
Anderson is the leading furniture market of
upper South Carolina, and yet such is the
case. The advertisement of Mr.. G. F. Tolly,
which appears elsewhere is literally true.
His stock of furniture is very large and
varied, with the most reasonable prices that
can be found in the State. Persons from
other places would do well to send to him
their orders for furniture, as he can fill all
bills as reasonably and as satisfactorily as
can be done in the furniture establishment
of any neighboring city.
Some envious scribbler, who cannot rise
higher in the scale of humanity than to
work upon daily newspaper, not long ago
said that Col. Speights was running the
Greenville Daily Nems for the benefit of the
ditto hotel This is vile SANDER !!
We were little puzzled about the dual
occupation of our friend Speights, until
he explained to us the other day that
he gave strict attention to the hotel during
the day time, and in the evening he put his
guests to bed in liquor merely to preserve
their health until next morning, and then
he went to work upon the Daily Netrs.
Plant more corn. The prospect of Euro
pean war has already advanced its price,
while the price of cotton is slightly lower
