THE BERGER FAMILY TROUPE.

This splendid company Of musical artists,
after an absence Of several years, are to visit
Anderson on next Saturday evening, and
give another of their superb entertainments.
This troupe are fayorites of our citizens, and
the announcement of their coming insures
them full house. The company this sea-
son is very strong one, including. besides
the wonderful cornet soloist, Miss Anna
Teresa Berger, who OF herself is an attrac-
ton unequalled in any other company,
the Misses Coleman, said to be the most
versatile musical artists in America, the re-
nowned saxophone soloist, Miss Eta Nor
gan, the soprano vocalist, Miss Kate Dou-
glass, and the great humorists and imper-
senators, Jeffe and Fannie Delano, together
with the music of the Swiss Bells and the
comets, harps, violins,- ETC., etc., will make
up an entertainment unequalled for variety
and meritorious features. Tickets have been
put at reasonable prices, and the sale of re-
served seats is now in progress at the POST
office. We advise all who intend going to
secure their seats in good season, as the
hall will undoubtedly be filled.

NATIONAL BANK STOCK.

The spartanburg Herald says: Several
shares of stock in the National Bank OF
Spartanburg, belonging to the estate of DR..
Alexander Evins, deceased, were sold at
Executors sale last Monday, and brought
s1l6.5O per share, or $16.50 of above par.
This is good evidence of the sound condi-
ton of our Bank. Several shares in the
National Bank of Anderson brought $111.0o
per share" The last sale of stock in the
National Bank of Anderson brought $125.00
at this place, and it cannot now be bought
at all, except where estates are sold but its
value is far above the sale quoted in Spar
tanburg, and if it had been known here that
it was to be offered for sale there would have
been bidders from this place present who
would have given more for it than the stock
of the Spartapburg Bank brought in the
instance cited.

was thought better contracts could be made
privately. Indeed, the, Commissioners are
determined to make the arrangements fol

possible, and will not be in any hurry about
acting. The law, however, is now in force
and the building of the line fences is not

The Chief Justice has announced the
roster of Circuit Judges for the Winter ses.
sion of the Circuit Courts as follows: Judge
of the LIST Circuit goes to the 3rd Cir
cult; Judge of the End Circuit to the
4th Circuit, and so. on, ending with the
Judge of the 9Th Circuit on the End Circuit.
This brings us Judge Mackey, the Judge OF
the 9Th Circuit, who will hold our Court,
beginning on the third Monday in Februa-
~ next. The same plan of rotation is OBJ
served for the Spring sessions, except that
the Judges are moved on the next Circuit,
so that we will have Judge Kershaw, of the
5th Circuit, with us in May.
We are indebted to Col. T. ]. Pickens, the
accommodating Auditor of this County, for
the assessment of real and personal property
in this County for the year 1877, the totals
of which are: Real estate, s2,s11.o79; per-
sonal property, including bonds, stocks, &C.,
81, SAG, ,s74. There are 1855 persons in the
County who pay poll tax, and be it said,
as an evidence of the good sense of our peo-
pie, that there are only 2s4s dogs in the
County, or about one for two men. There
are 4,91s horses and mules; 7,135 sheep
and goats; 1892 cattle; and 1910 hogs.
We may make more extended quotations
from these assessments at another time.
Col. James A. Hoyt, of the Columbia
Register, paid Anderson brief visit last
week, spending Saturday and Sunday in
our midst. After his arrival on Friday
Night, the Anderson Cornet Band, in COM
pany with a number Of our citizens, re-
paired to the residence of Mrs. Webb, where
he was stopping, and after q serenade of
welcome, called loudly for him, in response
to which he appeared, and expressed his
qualification at being in Anderson, the
place of his residence for SO many years.
he said that the scene upon this occasion
was so familiar, that it reminded him of
the great year 1876 in which Anderson had
made such magnificent Democratic can
vass, and said that it gave him pleasure to
know that the initiatory steps had again
Just been taken to keep this County true to
her Democratic record, and urged unity Of
action upon all of our citizens He urged
the most thorough organization of the
Democratic party, and warned our people
of the danger to arise in the shape of inde-
pendent candidates, who should be dis
countenanced by every Democrat. His
remarks were well received, and elected
frequent and hearty applause. He was occu-
pied on Saturday in the transaction Of pri-
vate business, and on Monday he returned
to Columbia.

THE FENCE LAW.

Mr.. EDIToR: There seems to be considera-
BILE doubt in the minds of the people in re-
gard TO the new Fence Law, and numerous
enquiries have been made as to when it will
90 into effect. We desire to state that the
Commissioners have declared and published
the result of the said election, and that the
new Fence Law, according to the Act, and
not of the Commissioners. took effect in
those Townships adopting it the first day of
January, 1878. Parties who suffer their
stock to run at large, do so at their own
risk. 49,,
The line fences will be built as soon as
practicable, and the fact that they are not
built is no license for parties to suffer their

Mr.. EDITOR: AS one of the cotton buyers
of the town of Anderson. I desire to correct
an error in regard to the sale of cotton. I
see that resolution relating to the undue
advantage attempted by the cotton buyers,
by requiring the producer or seller to lose
the weights of bagging and ties on all cotton
sold," has been adopted by Clio Grange and
concurred in by Flat Rock Grange. Now, 1
desire to state that.there has been no deduc-
ton for Jaggi,,g and ties on cotton bought in
tile Anderson market at any time. There
is regulation, however, dedueting Is

pounds per bale, as it is not considered a

We would call attention to the fact that
Democratic Clubs in sending up delegates to
the County Convention are entitled to two
delegates for the first fifty members, or part
thereof, on their roll, and one for every
twenty-five members over this number.
Clubs would also do well to select their
member for the next Executive Committee.
