The primary election in Anderson have
resulted in the election of Col. B. +. Cray
ton for the Senate, and Messrs. Murray,
Brown. Mattison and Wilson for the House
With all of these gentlemen but Messrs.
Mattison and Wilson we are acquainted
and without hesitation we say Anderson
has put forward good ticket. Col Crayton
Is well known rs the President Of the State
Agricultural Society and as one who has
done much for the farming interests of his
County. Major Murray is the young, tai
ented County Chairman of the Democratic
party and editor Of the INrELLIGENcER, than
which no purcr and bolder journal is pub
lished in the State. Dr. Brown was in the
last Legislature, and made his mark as
bold thinker and ready talker. In such
goodly company are essrs. Wilson and
Mattison found that. though we do not
know them personally. wo have no doubt
OF their fitness for the positions. Anderson
always elects her ticket, so, beyond perad-
venture. these gentlemen will occupy seats
u the next General Assembly. And it is
source of pleasure to know that men Of
character and ability are being returned

usual. a patent fruit drer and n patent
plow with moulds, the latter nn invention
Of Mr., J. C. CAN'T, of this County, deserve
special notice. The display of domestic
manufactures, such as carpeting, jeans,
coverlets, blankets, quilts, rugs, etc., was
very good, though not equal to previous
years. The redeeming character in this dis.
ply is in the superior quality of the articles
exhibited.
THE NEEDLE AND FANCY WORK DEPARTMENT
is. no ns"sl :...:.-ac::;o a,id interesting, cs-
pecially TO the ladies, who alone can fully
appreciate the rare taste and superior skill
displayed in the many articles exhibited.
The specimens Of embroidery, braidipg and
crochet are indeed exquisite, while the large
number Of garments, and parts of garments,
together with the thousand and one other
specimens Of hLndiwork, contribute to
render close observation and inspection
of the articles on exhibition in this depart.
ment OF both interest and profit to oil those
who delight in such wo:k. We next in
spect the
FINE ART DEPARTMENT,
which is equally as good if not superior.
to any exhibition of former years, both in
point of the quantity and quality of articles.
The paintings and drawings were all very
fine, and ELECTED general praise from those
present, Us did also the other articles in this
department. Last, but not least, ;s the
MISCELLANEOUS DEPARTMENT.
Among the novelties here the most promi-
nent is postage stamp fire screen" ex-
hibited by Mrs. Il. L. Keys, and which is
too unique TO attempt description. This
department is always interesting, as it is
here we find collected the novelties and
curiosities of the Fair. very prominent
feature OF the Fair this year is the fine dis
play Of the
MsAITH MUSIC HOUSE,
OF Greenville, which contributed great
dea! to the pleasure of tho occasion. Two
pianos and several organs were kept busy
the greater part Of the time by fine per-
formers. A large collection of sheet music
was displayed, aud Mr.. and Mrs. McSmith
did everything i'll their power to add to the
interest of the Feir.
The Anderson Palmetto Band discoursed
martial music on Thursday and Friday to
the delight and pleasure Of all present.
This concludes the sketch of the most i'm
portant features of our County Fair, and
although an imperfect one. it will, we hope,
assist those of our readers who were not
present to form some general idea of what
it was, and to what extent successful For
the persevering and energetic efforts excrtcd
in behalf of the Association by its President,
Hon. B. +. Crayton, and acting Secretary,
Col. jas. l.. Orr, too much credit cannot be
given. The closing feature of the occasion,
as usual, was the report of the Secretary,
made up from the reports Of tho various
awarding committees, which was made in
the building about 8 o'clock on Friday af-
ternoon, when many anxions hearts were
relieved. The crowd then dispersed, and
everybody seemed well pleased with the
eleventh annual far.

AT THE HELM AGAIN.

Owing to the lowering aspect Of the
weather there were only about 20 persons
at the old Foundry last evening, and ad.
dresses were made by Rev. O. B. Strayer,
Of Virginia, and G. W. Wells, Esq.
Mr.. Wells made short address of an
encouraging nature, In which he showed
that outside influences and sensations could
not bring good results, and unless men
lived up to their knowledge of morality and
manhood they could not keep the pledge.
MIR. Wells has been absent about six
weeks and returns to remain a while and
work among his Wilmington friends, and
we expect to see the work brisk up at the
Foundry shortly.
During conversation with our reporter
declined to express himself pointedly upon
the Moral suasions, except to say that no
acrimony was borne, but that no men could
not remain reformed by moral suasisn or
any other means unless they acted accorde
ing to the light God had given them. He
promised however to possibly express him>
self more broadly at the at the meeting TO-
night, and persons who feel interested in
the way Mr.. W. looks at the matter, should
go and hear him. In addition Mr.. Strayer
will address the meeting to night.
