The Stepping Stone to Health.

The acquisition Of vital energy is the step
ping stone to health. When the system
lacks vitality, the various organs flag in
their duty, become chronically irregular,
and disease is eventually instituted. To
prevent this unhappy state Of things, the
debilitated system should be built up by
the use of that iniInitable tonic, Hostettsr' s
Stomach Bitter., which invigorates the di-
gestivc organs, and insures the thorough
conversion of food into blood of nourish-
ing quality, from whence every muscle,
nerve and fiber acquire unwontod supplies
of vigor, and the whole system experiences
the beneficial effect. Appetite returns, the
system is refreshed by healthful slumber,
the nerves grow strong and calm, the de-
spondency begosten Of chronic indigestion
and an uncertain state Of health disappears,
and that sallow appearance of the skin pc
culiar to habitual invalids, and persons de-
ficient in vital energy, is replaced by more
becoming tinge.

A cARoL1NIAN ABROAD.

The Pacific Commercial Advertiser, of Hon.
olulu, Sandwich Islands. speaking of Capt.
Walter NJ. Gibson, says:
"Of all the members Of the present Leg
islature none is moro WORTHY of prominent
mention than the Hon. W.'ter Murray
Gibson. He has labored indefa.igably for
the interests OF his constituents, and we
can safely say that no other foreiSh-
born gentleman in the House has welded
the same influence or gained the confidence
of the native Hawaiian members to the ex-
tent that he has done. This has been ow-
ing to the sincerity, frankness, courtesy and
earnestness with which he has advocate |
his opinions and the clearly unselhsh zeal
which has characterized his whole conduct
throughout an arduous session. He will
leave Us in the next steamer for America, to
be absent for year, on visit to his native
State-South Carolina. The warmest wishes
for his welfare will accompany him on his
journey and sincere hope for his safe re-
turn to the land of his adoption"
Capt. Gibson was for number of years
a resident of this County, and has many
friends in it who are pleased to hear of his
success from time to time, and will be high
ly gratifed to see him in our midst again.

Tribute of Respect.

:. The following preamble and resolutions
were adopted by the Anderson Baptist Sum-
day School on last Sunday morning, Sep
tember L:
Whereas, death having stolen into our
midst unawares. and having taken from our
School Miss ZULA WATSON, therefore we
are called upon to pay this last tribute Of
scholarly affection to the memory of our
friend. The Sabbath bell that has 80 often
tolled the hour of nine, will call her here
no more forever. The smiles of her teacher
and classmates ro more call from her bright
smiles in return. She has left our Sunday
School on earth to join that in Heaven.
After all death is not so dreadful. 1t only
unbars the gates of Heaven to let the Chris
tian enter the beautiful mansions prepared
by the Saviour for those who love him. 1t
was scarcely q year since ZULIA gave her
heart to the Saviour She was but young
and tender plant-a flower just ready to
bloom into womanhood with oil its purity
and lovcliness.
"But tits the penalty VIC pay
In this frail world Of ours,
To find the hues which soonest fade
Arc born Of sweetest flowers"
While calmly floating down through the
sunlight Of time, her Saviour whispered,
"Come near unto Me" Hope, like the
beauteous dove, brought her an evergreen
of immortality, and furnished her pure
spirit with wings to fly away and be with
her Saviour. Therefore,
Resolved, That while We feel sad over the
death of one so young and. pure, still we
rejoice to feel that our loss is her great gain,
and that time and opportunity is still Of
fered to others to trust in the Saviour sh'
loved
Resolrcd, That the family whose loss ha:
been so sore and sad is entitled to our heart
felt sympathies.
Resolved, That the Secretary be instructed
to furnish the family with copy of thes,
resolutions, and that the Anderson paper
bo requested to publish the same.
Respectfully submitted,
]. L. TRIBBLE, Committee.

EDITOR ANDERSON INTELL1oENcER: !:

Please call attention of our "citv fathers"
to what we think, to say the least, want Of
economy. Some week or more, dirt was
hauled by the town carts from DR.. DIVERS
lot to another part of our town, say half
mile. To-day similar dirt is being hauled
by the same carts half mile OF more and de-
posted IN front of Mr.. Spellman's shop,
not exceeding twenty yards from where the
dirt was taken from DR.. DIVERS lot. We
have seen these same town carts hauling
shavings from Blue Ridge depot to another
portion of town half mile or more, the
bodies of which were half full, weighing,
we suppose, about twenty pounds, not ex-
cecding whcel-barrow load. BY the way,
we omitted TO mention that on this same
cart was big driver weighing LIS to 200
pounds. A TAX PAYER.
