1.-The frank skeptieism Of ladies' moving
IN high society Is one Of the many sa-

to be mallyx fslled by men now include
rather more LADIES' than men. IL there
Is any difference, and were il proper TO
mention The names Of persons in Pri-

of such as would be recognized as be-
longing to influential families, and who
are known to large circles OF friends as
holding very positive disbeliefs Of things

DANGERS or MOONLIGHT RAMBLEs.-
A young couple engaged to be married,
while promenading in the twilight along
what is known 40 the Bridal Path, in
Central Park, seated themselves upon
one OF the rustic benches among the
rocks, where they lovingly told anew
that old. old story, entirely unconscious
Of the chill night air surrounding them.
Upon reaching home it was found that
the young lady had contracted acute
Rheumatism. which defied all medical
treatment, and apFrehensions for her
recovery were felt. A friend in WASH
ington recommended Keller's Roman
Liniment which was applied with the
same astonishing effect that il produced
in thousands of other cases where it has
proven itself the most miraculous pain
extractor and healer on earth.

GRAND JURY PRESENTMENT.
September Term, 1878.

To the Honorable J. H. Hudson, Presiding
Judge Of tho Eighth judicial Circuit al
Andeson, S. c.:
Th, Grand Jury Of Anderson County ut
this their last session respectfully submit: /:
Having at O former session of the Court
examined tho various County offices, and
found them we'll kept, we have only at this
session given them a casual examination,
but b,live from said examination that they
are in the same condition when wo exam
ined them moro particularly.
We find that the Jail il we'll kept, and
the prisoners properly cared for.
BY II committee Of our number we visited
tho Poor House, and find the inmates we'll
cared for, and that the recommendations
made by US at our last session has in past
been carried out, and believe that they will
bs fully carried out by the Commissioners.
As tho Town Council contemplate placing
In the steepls Of the Court House Town
Clock, and 81 the stseple is not in good re-
pair, vre recommend that the County Com
mis,ionsrs put the said steeple in good con-
dition
At the last session of the Court we recon-
mended that the County Commissioners
have the roads in the County put in good
condition as early as practicable We find
that said recommendation has not been
complied with. In somo places the roads
have not been worked, and in others the
work has not been sufficient.
Believing that it in important that tho
roads of the County should bs kept in good
condition, wo again recommend that the
Countr Commissioners have the roads well
worked at once, wherever they have not
been placed in good condition.
We also recommend that Daniel F. An
derson be required to erect gate where his
fonce crosses tho road that leads from the
Generals Road near Mrs. Mary c. Acker's
across Rocky River at Enoch Majors Ford
to Wilnon', Ferry Road near the residence
Of tho ,aid Daniel F. Anderson.
We are pleased TO report that the iarmers
arc now gathering their crops, and as gen.
eral thing are we'll pleased with the change
in tho fence law in this County.
We have been unable to learn of any
serious depradationS on crops by stock, and
not single case Of law suit arising from
The said law.
The stock in tho County have been kept
fatter than before the change, and butter
has been more plentiful. We think this an
indication of what the change in the fence
law will effect in the County, and that
Anderson County will soon become one OF
the most prosperous Counties in the State,
and he: people independent and happy.
In conclusion, we desire to return our
thanks to your Honor and the Solicitor for
the yey efficient manner in which you
have discharged your duties, and the assis-
tance given US.
Respectfully submitted,
B. D. DEAN, Foreman.

REDucTIoN OF FRE1eHTs.

The Greenyille and Columbia and the
soutl. Carolina Railroads have reduced
their freight tariffs to Anderson in all cases
as low as they are to Grecnyille, and in
scme classes Of goods is little lower.
This Is applicable 70 heights from either
Charleston, Columbia. or New York, and
therefore removes all cause Of complaint SO
far as the town Of Anderson is concerned,
and places orr merchants in o position to
sell goods ss cheap as the merchants Of
Greenyills or any neighboring town can do,
or to pay as much for cotton or other pro-
duce as other towns do, and hence our pco-
pie should bring their cotton, &C., to An
derson and buy their supplies, goods, &C.,
at this place. The merchants of Anderson
new expect to compete with Greenville in
thGir prices, and are looking for an unu-
sually large trade as the result. We are
glad that the railroad authorities have at
last concluded 10 do justice towards Ander-
son, and If they will only extend it to Pen
dlston, Beltoh, Williamson and Honea
Path, the INTRLL1eENoss will have no
further unkind words for them.

lIOTEA PATH.

Rev. G. w. Gardner, the newly installed
pastor of the Baptist Church at this place,
is making an effort to have his Church
plastered, so that his congregation will be
able to listen to sermon even on cold days.
May his efforts succeed, and they certainly
will il everyone will do his duty.....The
stores are beginning to AL up with goods
and soon things will be liyely......Cotton
has been coming in slowly on account Of its
opening so rapidly and the necessity OF carly
picking to prevent damage by storms......
The Bible Society held its annual meeting
in the Baptist Church on Sabbath last and
the following officers elected for the year:
President, DR.. T.. A. Hudgens; Vice Presi-
dent, G. NJ. Hattison; Secretary, III. l.
Brock. Rev. d. E. Frierson, D. D., was
chosen to preach the annual sermon before
the society in September, 1s79......ln addl-
ton to the sum already raised for tho bene-
fit Of yellow fever sufferers, an effort is be-
ing made to get up bale of cotton to be
shipped to Charleston and disposed of for
the same object. The merchant, and gin
ners will receive the cotton. Let those
wl.o have not given anything, and those who
have, and feel able to give more, come up
and contribute few pounds, which may
be tho means of saving some poor sufferer.
Come this ueek. You'll never miss the few
pounds you give.....A grand mass meeting
Of the Democracy Of four counties will be
holden, by appointment of the State E1ecu-
tive Committee, on October 10th. Gov.
Hampton, Genls. MCGOWAN and Kennedy
