THE AaR1cuLTuRAL FAIR.

~ The announced Fair for the 9th OF August,
at the Fair Grounds in this place, promises
to be a fine success. There will be large
number of gentlemen from various portions
of the State epresent in Anderson, attending
the summer meeting of The State Grange
and the needing of the stockholders of the
State Fair Association, both of which bodies
will be in se5sion in Anderson at that time,
and we trust bur people will take sufficient
interest in Sustaining and advancing the
re1i5dtation ofthe County of Anderson to
induce them b have on exhibition u full
display OF the Various industries of our peo-
pie. Do not expect some one else to do
this, but let evry man endeavor to make
some exhibit. u is a display before the
State, and not sAnpv before the County OF
Anderson, and therefore it is very desirable
that our display shall be rs creditablc as
| possible. There i 10 be no charge for adj
| miitance, and the audience will enjoy the
privilege of hearing Judge AIackey deliver
| a speech upon The hncc law, and will meet
totler distinguished gentlemen of the State.
| Governor Hampton has been invited to do
liver an agricultural kd,lrcss, and We hope
to have him prescn. hing tho Fair Come
with your families, nnl bring something TO
show the progress of Anderson County. \

SANDY SYRINGE.

On last Saturday cftcrncon tho citizens
assembled for the express purpose of recon-
sidering the fence question. About forty or
fifty whites and negroes, principally whites,
were present. We only regret not being
present so rs to itemizc and give the novel
ties of the occasion. They were all speak
ers, consequently no audience. Every one
had the floor at the same time, and owing
to the magical power and obstreperousncss
OF the arguments, pro and con- the citizens
became alarmed. 1t may rightly be called
bogus meeting; but we are happy to
learn that there were no lives lost or any
blood spiIt.....The debate on last Saturday
night ut Mt. Zion was largely attended and
considerable interest manifested. The ques-
ton discussed was, (Which was more cruel
ly treated by the white man, the negro or
the Indian 2" After lengthy discussion, it
was lecided atfirmatively. The question
for next Saturday night is (Which is the
cause of greater evil, intcmperance or fash
ions ?" An interesting debate is antici-
pated.....Our fruit is a failure this year, as
we were unfortunate enough to be num-
bcred with the hail victims. Not even q

To THE CHANGERS.

Your Pomona Grange and the Anderson
Agricultural Society have determined on
having Fair on the 9th day Of August,
during the sitting Of the State Grange and
the State Agricultural Society. 1 appeal to
the members Of our Order throughout the
County-mcn and women-to make one
grand effort to sustain the good name Of
Anderson County by each one bringing
something to exhibit. Let it be the duty of
each member to bring specimens Of wheat
oats, rye, barley, millct, grasses, &c; corn,
cotton, potatoes, tobacco; vegetables of all
kinds; watcr-melons and musk melons :;
apples, peaches, plums-in fact, the best
specimens of all these you may have Our
sisters will please furnish specimens of their
handiwork-quilts counterpancs, coyerlcts.
blankets, needle and fancy work; specimens
OF bread, rolls, rusk, biscuit, crackers jcllcs,
preserves pickles; and don't forget your
beautiful flowcrs-anything you have that
VIII add interest to the meeting. The gates
will be thrown wide open and free to all,
and If the subordinate Granges will take
lively interest in this matter success is GER
TAIN Again, this will do great deal toward
giving the Changers position and influence
among the people outside the ''gates," and
permanently establishing orr Order. Let
each Master, and all other ofilc ,rs and men,
bers, bestir themselves. Urge this matter
before your Grange, and we will have the
largest exhibition ever known iii Anderson.
