AS winter approaches we look for
ward with sad and fearful eyes to
the revival of those inevitable con-
flicts which have for ten thousand
years strewn the marital sea with in
Vulnerable wrecks. The old, old
question, begun when PhGcion was
not yet born and Deucalion was still
young, question trickling down
through innumerable centuries, and
which made Caesar swear in Dutch
and Washington kick the cover up
to the ceiling and whack Martha
with pillow. "Who shall get
up first and build the fire ?" Alas
poets have sung and philosophers
have died in vain, he is yet TO be
born whose genius shall be able to
compass the happy end of convincing
woman that II is her duty TO get uI
in winter and enkindle the matu,
final flame. Here il is bubbliDe
into poetry already:
DAISY. dRrlingl do not wake me
Ere IL murphieH you do peel
Ere you've chopped the scraps and leayin'
Df our yeeter eNef's meal;
wake me not 10 pangful waitings--
DO not serve me so againi
but when once the hash Is ready,
Gentle spirit, call me then. ,"

JUDGE MAxcY's RACE.


devoting much attention to the can
vass for Judge in this district, chiefly
because we deemed II scarcely neces-
sary TO do so more than to place the
nominee, Judge Alexander, upon the
regular ticket. Apart from the unan-
imous and flattering endorsements
he had received from all the counties
of the district, his brief career upon
the bench had proven cminently sat
isfactory TO bar and people, and 1t
was clearly due him that for the re-
mainder of a fractional term he
should be continued in the position
he had so well adorned. We had
hoped that his race at least, would
be kept free from contention, and
that by common consent we would
go TO the polls quietly on next cleo
ton day, and express our approval
of public servant whose course and
conduct peculiarly meritcd that APP
proval. Judge Maxcy and some four
or five of his professional brethren,
have seen fl to disappoint us in this
respect, and constituting themselves
as a sort of appellate tribunal, have
endeavored to reverse the unanimous
action and expression of the Democ-
racy OF the district. Against their sim
gular course in this respect we have
no complaints to make, and view
IL altogether in sorrow-not in anger.
Judge Maxcy and these friends of
his are good men, and this is free
country. If he wants to be Judge,
and the Democrats wont nominate
him. but express their preference for
another man, it is his right to disre-
gard the authoritative expression of
his party, and run for the office.
But good Democrats must view
such n course, rs we do-with pro-
found regret that a Democrat
should so far forget the land marks
of his party as to assert his own in
dividual views in opposition to the
spoken voice of the party, and, in his
zeal for office. look to the ranks OF
the enemy for his only hope of sue.

DEATH OF COL. F. E. HARRISON.

The readers of the 1NTELLIGENcER will
read the announcement of the death of Col.
F. E. Harrison, Of Andersonville, with pro-
found regret. The announcement last week
that this estimable gentleman was hopeless
ly i'll has proved to be sadly true and on
last Saturday night about eleven o'clock his
spirit was released from the tolls of life to
enter upon the rewards of the faithful.
Col. Harrison was about fifty-three years
of age. and was native of Anderson
County. Since his fathers death he has
owned and resided upon the old family
homestead at Aadersonville, which has
long been noted as the abode Of culture,
hospitality and refinement. There may
have been men rs kind and gentle as Col.
Harrison, but there certainly have been
none to excel him in these enviable traits,
and thousands of deeds of charity and acts
of beneyolence to the poor and needy will
secure for his memory love and respect
from hundreds of those who have received
assistance from him who is gone. He was
pure, christian and noble gentleman,
whose intellectual culture and refinement
were heightened by those qualities of the
heart which so greatly assist to make up the
perfect man. He was for many years de-
voted member of the Presbyterian Church,
and was one of the leading lay members in
the up-country, helping to sustain and pro-
pagate his religion both by his example and
by liberal contribution of his means.
Col. Harrison was progressive man, and
did much to improve the condition of the
country, taking lively and beneficial in
terest in agriculture, manufacturing and
railroads. In his death the County has lost
valuable and excellent citizen, and the
sympathy of all our people is extended to
the smitten family in their sore bereave-
ment.
On Sunday afternoon large concourse
of friends assembled at the residence of the
deceased in Andersonville to witness the
sad funeral rites, which were most solennly
beautiful and touching, the Rev. John B.
Adger p-oc"hing the sermon, after which
the remana were inferred in the family
graveyard at Andersonville, there to await
the resurrection to life eternal.

be built in the Town of Anderson on the

GREAT LONDON SHOW.

This immense consolidation of Sanger's
Menagerie of trained animals, DockrilPs
Superb Partisan Circus, and all the rare fea-
lures of the great London Show, once so
famous throughout the length and breadth
OF the land, has been playing the most brill
liant engagement in New York on record.
1t will exhibit here OH Friday, November
Goth, in all its stupcndous entirety. Its
grand success in the East last summer and
the popularity of its then finished perform
ances are guarantee of repetition of it's
former triumphs during its present tour
The New York Daily Telegram of March 80
says of 1t:
This magnificent exhibition seems to
have all extraordinary firm grip on the pub
lie, and its success this season bids fair to
surpass even that of last fall, when the at
tendance was unprecedented. Since the
opening night the house. which has q scat
ing capacity larger than any place in the
city, has been literally packed with delight
ed men. women and children, and the ap-
plause has been enthusiastic and spontanc-
Gus. The verdict of every one is, after sit
ting through this superb entertainment
that such an exhibition as that given by
the Great London never had its equal on
this side of the water. Everything seems
snguarly neat. The acts follow each other
in the ring with entertaining rapidity. The
Jokes of the Irish and French clowns strike
one as refreshingly new; the music by Rob-
insons Band is wonderously well selected
and the entire performance is unique and
grand. The visitor fails to discover any,
thing lacking in the entire entertainment.
Madame Dockrile, that superb artist, and
Francesca Brown the famous bareback rider,
fairly divide the honors between them each
performan ce, and neither fails to arouse the
utmost enthusiasm. The hurdle act of Will
liam German is the best we have seen in the
ring for q long time, and the juggling act of
Miss Pauline Lee is something to be seen
and wondered at. The five performing ele-
plants, in addition to their other marvellous
performances, now go through u regular
drill with the accuracy and intelligence of
human beings. The location of the circus
cannot be surpassed, and the finest class of
people patronize it.

THE EENp1EroN FACTORY.

This valuable property, situated about
eleven miles from Anderson Court House
and about three miles from Pendleton, and
Immediately on the Blue Ridge Railroad,
was sold ut public cutlery at this place on
last Thursday, 18th instant, and purchased
by o. P. Jackson, Esq, Of the Batesyille
Factory, who we learn has associates in the
purchase. We understand the new owners
contemplate filling the buildings to their
full capacity with new and improved ma
chinery at an early day, and making it a
first class factory in every respect.
The property was bid off at SIC, $50, being
$50 less than the price paid by the late
owners in May, 1877. The sale was for di-
vision among the owners, who were bond
holders of the late Pendleton Manufactur-
ing Company.
