ITO what extent?"
Several wealthy gentlemen of New
York City have formed syndicate TO de-
Velop the Arizona mines. They have Sc
lected experts to examine them, who.
presume, are already on their way to this
coast. The final decision rests upon this
investigation. Should the report Of the
experts be favorable the capital necessary
for development will be forthcoming at
once"
"Can you tell me the names OF the gen.
tlemen forming the syndicste?"
II would not think it advisable 10 give
the names ut present. Until they have
finally decided they might object to being
mentioned"
do they all reside in New York;"
"Yes"
"Did you find them ready for the enter
prise?"
II did. Considerable attention, more in
fact than ever before, has recently been
attracted to the mines of this coast as Il
profitable means OF investment. Some Of
the Bodle mines have been already placed
in New York, and some Of the Arizona
mines in Chicago aud Philadelphia. The
rate Of interest is low, and there is plenty
Of idle capital in all the Eastern cities

"What amount Of capital does the syn

Arizona mines should the experts deem
the prospect good. Absolute certainty OF

The extremely hot weather has damaged
the crops more in this vicinity than the
drouth. The corn crop is badly injured,
whilst the cotton crop has not as yet suffer-
ed much for rain. The showers have been
partial. Mr.. J. L. Mullikin says that his
crop has never suffered one day for rain,
whilst some of his neighbors have needed
it badly mfr. II. D. Rochester is very
successful in raising watcr-melons. Wet or
dry he has enough and some to spare. His
melon crop this year, though not as good
as usual, is the best in the community.
He also has some fruit in his orchard, which
is rare thing in these parts.....We had the
pleasure of looking over the corn and cot
ton crop of Capt. Peter McPhail and sons
last week, and can say, considering the dry
weather, it is hard to beat. Capt. McPhail
is one of our best farmers and oldest citi-
zens, and through an innate love for indus
try, spends his time and attention improv.

rhe Colored Good Templars.

The Anderson lodge of Colored Good
Templars had an anniversary celebration
on last Thursday, which drew forth a
large and very orderly gathering of their
race. The procession, numbering about
one hundred and fifty, marched from
the Greeley Institute through the public
square to Hampton Park, and was head
ed by the colored band which made very
creditable music for the occasion. At tho
stand the meeting was organized by Mr..
Green D. Williams, the presiding officer
of the lodge, who made brief and we'll
timed introduction, after which Messrs.
E. B. Murray, ]. S. Murray, j. A. Rus
sell, G. F. Tolly and L. P. Smith were
introduced andmade short and appropri-
ate temperance speeches. At the conclu-
sion of the speaking over sixty new
names were enrolled, after which the
procession returned to the lodge-room
and dispersed. The proceedings through
out were orderly, and showed an evident
advancement on the part of the colored
people of this County, which is due, in
large measure, to the extension of the
wholesome doctrine Of temperance.

On motion, it was decided to sell the old

A petition signed by 70 voters of the town
was presented to Council, asking that the
question of subscribing the sum of $4,000
to the capital stock of the Savannah Valley
Railroad Company, to be paid in three
equal annual installments, without inter
est, be submitted to the qualified electors of
the town.
The Council passed resolutions granting
the prayer of the petitioners, and fixed the
Sd day of September next as the day for
holding said election.
After passing accounts amounting in the
aggregate to SG.65, the Council adjourned.

cumulated quite handsome property, q
good portion of which he bequeathed to
kind friend who cared for and ministered
to his wants during his painful illness OF
the past three years. He has many friends
in this County who will learn with sorrow
of his death.
The Good Samaritans held picnic cele-
bration in Anderson on last Friday. A
large crowd of colored people were present,
and the meeting was an orderly one in the
main. The procession numbered some three
hundred persons, and large number OF
followers. Speeches were made by Elias
Terrell, Jehu Thomas, colored man from
Newberry named Jones, and one or two
others. The speakers, as far as we can
learn, spent most of their time in asserting
that the society is not political, and were
very much exercised over the article in the
INrEILIeENcER last week, which expressed
our belief that it is q political society. They
denounced the charge, and said that who
ever told the Editor of this paper that it was
political had said that which was false. The
object which they give for the society is the
elevation of their race, charity to the poor,
and supervision of burying the dead. These
are worthhy objects if they are the only
ones held by the organization, but it is re-
ported all over this County that its object
is to unite the colored people on politics.
Colored men have said this, and the char
acter of the leaders of the society here indi-
Gates that there is something beyond tho
objects given. The meetings are too fire.
quent and last too long for simply beneyo-
lent purpose. We do not believe that the
masses of the members know the object for
which the society is formed, for as general
thing they cannot give any intelligentobject.
They are simply organized, and if there is
any political significance to come out of it,
the development will only be made short
time before the next election. The society
is formed under Northern influences, and
will be used in accordance with the plan
! for tho execution of which it was brought
into existence. fit has no politics in it
now, its members should guard it carefully
in order that nothing of the kind shall be
admitted into its ranks, for as certainly as
it is made political machine, just so sure
ly will it produce nothing but mischief.

who is visiting Williamson for the pur-

An old lady who came over into this

who is evidently impressed with the wicked

wiser than God any how, but that they had
better mind how they opposed His laws.
