sERENADR TO JUDGE HUDSON.
On last Tuesday night the Anderson Iil-
mctto Band, in company with large num-
Der Of our citizens, serenaded Judge Hudson
and Solicitor Cothran at the Waverly House.
end, after some most beaut'rLl music IN re-
sponse to enthusiastic calls, Judge hudson
appeared, and thanking his audience for tho
compliment OF the serenade, said that ho
was highly pleased with his yisit to Anier-
son. That he liked the appearance Of our
town and its surrounding country, and that
he had not met more intelligent popula-
ton anywhere than he had seen in the as-
senblage of the citizens Of this County in
attendance upon Court, and that he did not
expect to meet one that would impress him
more favorably. he himself was originally
from the up country, having been raised in
old Chester County, but at manhood he re-
moved to tho great Pee Dee section, s'hero
he has 5inte resided III Ezarlboro County.
That he had formed an erroneous opinion
Of the up country. He had expected to find
1t denuded Of timber. washed into gullies.
and bleak, while it was quite to tho contra
ry. He had, since his elevation to tho
Bench, been called by his official duties
into the up country altogether, beginning
his first Court, by ntrange coincidence, in
his native town of Chester. That from the
acquaintance he had formed with the people
OF thin section he was not surprised that tho
redemption OF the State began in upper
Carolina. That from the prosperity ei,d in
telligence OF our people it was what might be
expected. He congratulated Anderson upon
holding tho first great meeting that was
held In the campaign which redeemed the
State, and said that this, however. ves not
al of which she might well be proud, for it
was this County-then called Pendloton-
which gaveto the nation its Calhoun, who
was the peer. not only Of any man of this
nation. but even, az he had heard the Hon.
VIM. G. Preston affirm, the eqS:.! OF any
contemporary statesman OF England or O;
the continent of Europe; and also that the
same County of Pendleton had given to tha
country its McDume, who Mr.. Preston,
himself distinguished scholar and states
man, declared, in his opinion, to be nearer
Demosthenes than any other American
orator. This Judge spoke Of tho peace and
growing prosperity OF the State, and u-gld
the people of this County to continue
in their patriotic a. d law-abiding course,
which would perpetuate the blessings
We now have. He said we must per
petuato the redemption We have won, or, in
the language of the Red Shirt Democracy
OF South Caroline, we must "hold the fort"
After moro beautiful music Solicitor
ceth:=a -as called tSoT, aud responded in
ono of his short, happy epeeches, which
called forth frequent and hearty applause.
He referred to the present political canvass
and said that no did not know that he could
say anything to the Anderson Den ocracy,
for they Were united, and their course In
the past had shown that they know how to
conduct Themselves; but that he would
risk single word OF advice with reference
to our nominations anyway He said that
we have adopted the plurality plan of nom-
mating candidates, and that after the pri-
mary election there would be great many
sore-heads. and some of them might noasi-
oiy be 30 sore that they would not get we'll
betore the general election. He said the
enls sssy TO guard against this was to lake
up cur minds before hand to accept what
ever nominations may be made. We are
watched by willy foe, and the vote in An
aeison County may determine the rosult Of
the election in the State, and we cannot
ahord to split mp over nominations. Wo
