The following letter from New Orleans to
q gentleman III this County gives an idea of
the yellow fever plague in that city:
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 90, 1878.
N1 DEAR BRINsDoN: Your kind and truly
welcomed favor of 25th ult. has just been
received, or I would have answered sooner.
As my vessel is laid up on account of quar-
antine, I am spending most Of my time
over the lake-only coming here OCCASION
ally to see if there is any chance of starting
my vessel out. WE'LL old fellow, this Is the
most terrible plague I ever witnessed in my
life. If 1t is the genuine yellow fever, 1t is
different from any thing ever saw here, In
Havana or Rio de Janeiro. The doctors are
puzzled, and are continually making ex-
periments in hope Of finding some new
treatment. Natives and all are attacked
alike. Have lost friends this year-some
who had it in 1867, and others who were
natives and had never been absent. A
prominent doctor told q friend ifany one
took it they were just as likely to die as to
get well, and believe they all feel that du.
bious. The most robust and hardy people
have the worst cases. Young Gay, son of
one of the wealthiess planters in Louisiana,
who had refinery here and had been here
oil Of his life, thought he was proof but was
attacked few days since. His father had
him sent to Chappins Infrmary at. once,
and summoned Chappin, Bruins, Beard and
another doctor, four Of the best physicians
in this city. He ives never LETT a moment
alone, and all that human aid could devise
was done. Finally his blood began to dry
up, and man from the refinery volun-
teered his blood, and eight ounces was
transferred into his body from this mans
arm, but the poor fellow died on Friday.
His father offered Chaplin half million to
cure him. He was his only son, and I
think the only child. There are many sad
cases hore, but thank God my family have
all escaped. Funerals and Grape on doors
have long ceased to excite any notice, and
many poor fellow have been laid away
without even one word said over their
graves.

FREIGHT ON COTTON REDUCED.

We are reliably informed that under the
new arrangement of the South Carolina
Railroad Company freights have been made
equal on cotton especially, and perhaps all
other articles, from Spartanburg, Greenville
and Anderson to Charleston and New York
Tho freight on cotton per bale from either of
these points is now $275 to Charleston, and
to New York $780, and no rebate. These are
great reductions from last years prices from
Anderson, and she will now compete with
any market in the up country, both in
prices of cotton and goods. Our merchants
have large and complete stocks of goods in
the various lines, which are being sold very
cheap. We hope the farmers of the entire
surrounding country will bring their cotton
here, where they will got full prices, and
buy their goods from our merchants.

ANDERsoN's COTTON TRADE.

We are indebted to Mr.. n. A. McCully,
the efficient cotton weighor for the town of
Anderson, for the following comparative
statement of the amounts of cotton received
at this depot for the month of September,
which will certainly convince our people
that Anderson is rapidly regaining in the
cotton trade what she has lost during the
past three or four years:
Amount received for the month of
September, 1S77....................... It's bales
For the same month in 1S7S........ 11SS bales
Increased receipts. bales
This is indeed very flattering statement,
and our merchants are much encouraged in
consequence. 1t is gratifying to our people
to know that Anderson is once more enabled
to compete with her neighboring towns, and
the above figures show unmistakably the
beneficial results. All that the merchants
of Anderson want, and all they ask, is equal
opportunities and advantages with their
competitors.

BELToS, s. c., Sept. 90, 1878.
Mr.. EDITOR: AS you know, some time
ago, positively declined being candidate
for Senator or any other position. then
thought was done with political life, but n
majority Of the Democratic clubs which
have nominated have, in their kindness,
seen fit to nominate me for the House of
Representatives, and many urge that the
bonded debt will come back for future lcgis'
lation-the holders having refused in most
cases to submit their claims to the bond
court which we organized, OH the ground, as
they say, that it is unconstitutional-and as
1 have fotight the fraudulent part of it from
the beginning Of that contest that it is u
duty owe my County to accept of n seat in
the House of Representatives, if elected, so
as to assist in fighting them until the mat
ter is oil settled; also to use all my influ"
ence to prevent the re-opening of the South
Carolina University at this time. do re-
alize tho vast importance of these and other
political questions to be settled by the next
Legislature to our poor, down-trodden tax
payers, consequently have consented to
accept of that position, if elected. l SHALL
if elected, use all my Influence to reduce
the expenses of legislation to the lowest
reasonable amount also, to reduce the pay
and number of Offices in our county and
State as far as We can with the present Con-
stitution, and will do all can to hasten the
time when we can form new Constitution,
so as to dispense with MANY of the offices
We now have and much of the pay they are
getting. I will also do all can to have the
royalty raised to two dollars ton on pho,-
phatic rocks dug In our tiavighble streams,
and to prevent all unnecessary nonopolies
in digging them. l will use all my infiu-
ence to have such laws passed as will force
all railroads to carry our freights at reason
able rates, and to prevent oil unjust discrim-
nations in freight, favoring one place to the
injury of another. will certainly do oil in
my power for low taxes and equal rights
to all. I am in favor of our Legislature
meeting only once in two years, and then
having short session, thus saving half OF
the expense of the Legislature. Georgia has
made this change. There ore many other
important changes and laws that should be
effected.
I will, of course, be governed by the result
of the primary election.

The friends of Col. L. NJ. RUCKER re-
spectfully announce him as q candidate for

tions,
For Senator

The many friends of Col. JESSE W.
NORRIS nominate him for o seat in the
Senate, and respectfully solicit the voters of
Anderson County to cast their ballots for
him at the primary election. The financial
questions of the State, yet unsettled, de-
mands the best financial ability that can be
obtained. This ability, we believe, is pos

truly representative of both capital and
labor, and deserves the support of all good

Liver is King.

The Liver is the imperial organ Of the
whole human system, as it controls the life,
health and happiness of man. When it is
disturbed in its proper action, all kinds of
ailments are the natural result. The diges-
ton of food, the movements of the heart
and blood, the action of the brain and nery-
GUS system, are all Immediately connected
with the workings of the Liver. 1t has been
successfully proved that Green's August
Flower is unequalled in curing all persons
afflicted with Dyspepsia or Liver Complaint,
and all the numerous symptoms that result
from an unhealthy condition of the Liver
and Stomach. Sample bottles to try, 10
cents. Positively sold in all towns on the
Western Continent Three doses will prove
that it is just what you want.

JUDGE HUDSON.

During the two weeks Court, which has
just closed in Anderson, Judge j. II. Hud-
son sustained himself most admirably. His
fairness, his patience, his clear conception
of all pertaining to litigation, together with
his thorough knowledge of law, combined
to achieve for him the highest esteem, both
from the citizens generally and from the en-
tire bar of this place. He carries from An
derson the most cordial friendship and the
most solid appreciation of his worth. He
is an ornament to our judiciary.
