found attention and respect. Mr.. Smith is
fascinating speaker and logical reasoner,
and consequently wins the confidence and
admiration of audiences wherever he goes.
He is one of the most promising young
ministers of the State, and is becoming n
tower of strength to his denomination.
There are fewer persons leaving this
County in search of better homes this fall
than there has been in any previous year
since the war, which fact we are pleased to
record. The truth that there is no better
country under the sun than ours is being
recognized at last
The thief who entered the houses of
Messrs. Herrick and Archer last week was
caught by Mr.. ]. R. FAINT on Thursday last
and after preliminary trial before Justice
Whitefeld was committed to Jail to await
his trial before the Circuit Court in January,
when he will be sent to the penitentiary to
pay the penalty of his crime.
We shall strive to make the INTELLIaEN-
GER hereafter still more worthy and deserv-
ing the patronage of the people of Anderson
County, and in our efforts to do so we ask
the cooperation of our friends in every
section of the County. When anything of
interest occurs in your neighborhood, drop
us the particulars on postal card.
Next Thursday has been appointed by
the President as a day of Thanksgiving and
prayer. Lieutenant Governor Simpson,
acting as Governor, has endorsed this ap-
pointment, and requests the usual services
to be held in the churches throughout the
State. We hope arrangements will be made
to carry out the appointment in Anderson.
We regret to announce the death of Mr..
Jordan Burns, respected citizen of the
Fork township, Of this County, which oc-
CURED at his residence on last Friday night
from dropsy of the heart, resulting from an
attack of pleurisy, which has confined him
to his bed for several weeks. Mr.. Burns
was, at the time of his death, sixty seven
years of age, and by his upright and genial
conduct through life had established HIM
self in the friendship and esteem of his
neightors and acguaintances, who sympa-
tslize with his family in the bereavement
they are called upon to bear. On Sunday
afternoon the deceased was inferred in the
Townville Baptist Church yard, after ap-
propriase and feeling funeral services. Mr..
Burns was good man, and in his death
kind neighbor and useful citizen has been
removed from earth.

The Battle OF MOnmOuth

The New York Herald says New
Jersey has fittingly colnmemorated the
one hundredth anniversary OF the battle
of Monmouth, which was in it's results
one of the most important of the militia
ry events of the war for independence.
In the middle of June, 1778, Sir Henry
Clinton came ont of his comfortable
quarters in Philadelphia and marched
toward New Brunswick, with a view of
embarking on the Raritan. General
Washington, about the same time, broke
camp at Valley Forge and started in
pursuit. The British commander when
he arrived at Allentown creek turned to
the right, taking the road leading
through Freehold, when Washington at
once resolved upon battle. The patri-
OF forces under General Lee, who had
been sent forward, were at first thrown
into disorder and began to retreat.
Washington quickly rallied them, and,
the main army soon coming up, the en-
gagement began in earnest. The result
was the defeat of Clinton, who retreated
under the cover of night. The ami
versary ceremonies were exceedingly
interesting. New Jersey has patriotic
ally resolved that monument shall
mark her historic battle field,
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1878-07-12
An Elephant's Revenge.

Elethants have so much sympathy
with depraved human nature as to think
with Byron, "Sweet Is revenge" An
anecdote of an elephants revenge,
translated from the French, is as fol-
lows: Upon one of the plantations was
an English overseer named Bennett, an
exceedingly cross and disagreeable man,
who was employed by the master be-
cause of his great capability in directing
affairs. Upon the plantation was an
elephant named Dourga, that Bennett
greatly disliked, and upon whom he
often played mean tricks. His employ
er, after reprovirg him several times for
his unkindness to the animal, warned
him that if he carried his tricks too far,
Dourga would pay him back with inter
est. Finally the time came when Dour-
gas patience was tried beyond endur-
ance. He was in the habit of receiving
every morning from his driver huge
corn cake covered with molasses, OF
which he was very fond. One morning,
as this cake was being carried to him on
bamboo hurdle, Bennett, who was
passing with pot full of red pimento,
threw it upon the cake, and then stopped
to watch and mimic the grimaces made by
the elephant when he swallowed it. The
result was easy to see. The poor AMI
NAL, his mouth on fire, passed the day
in marsh trying to calm the thirst that
was devouring him, and to appease the
Inflammation produced by the fiery dose
he had swallowed. When evening came,
the hour when Bennett brought the
coolies from work, the elephant pounced
upon him, picked him up with his
trunk and pitched him headlong in a
large reservoir or pond OF water, which
was thirty or forty feet deep, Bennett,
who knew how to swim, quickly swan
to the edge. Dourga allowed him to
climb up the bank, when he picked him
up again as if he had been e wisp of
straw, and threw him back in the water.
This was repeated as many times as Ben
nett attempted to escape, until he was
compelled to remain in the water, keep
ing his head up az we'll as he could. The
affair would have ended with sure drown
ing for Bennett if one of the coolies had
not come to his rescue and forced Dour.
ga away.
The elephant never forgot the injury
done him, and rarely allowed an oppor-
tunity to escape to still further revenge
himself upon the overseer. Sometimes he
would throw a paw full of sand slap in
Bennett's face; again it would be spout
of water thrown over him; at another
time he would be pitched into a cactus
bush, from which he would get out ecarce-
ly alive, 80 horribly scratched would he
be. 1t was impossible to correct Dour-
ga and make him behave. The upshot
of the whole affair was that Bennett was
obliged to leave the plantation, which
was not large enough for him and Dour-
ga together, and his employer valued the
elephant more than he did his overseer.
