Advice.

Ir is little singular that in spite of
our weii-lnown relish for proffering adj
vice. we should be averse to receiving
it; however ayaricious we may be. adj
vice is the one thing we are happy to
part with, in season and out of season,
perhaps because we are certain that
the supply is inexhaustible, and we are
sure OF payment, sooner or later. In
giving il we feel a sense Of superiority.
an imitation of personal Importance; in
accepting it we acknowledge the wis
dom OF another, the better-seasoned
judgment, and our vanity revolts at
such a concession. In the meanwhile
the most of us, without soliciting adj
vice, have ii thrust upon us, and in
such ailopathic doses that, were we to
use il all, we should have no leisure for
anything else. We are advised not
only how TO control our servants. n if
they were in the habit OF controlling
us, but how to keep our temper, as if
we were in the habit of losing it. While
giving advice is the most subtitle form
of self-fattery, taking it is an example
of the most permanent humility; but
perhaps there is nothing more eXasper-
ating, in a small way, than being adj
vised To follow the course which we
had already predetermined upon,
while the mentor, or tormentor, carries
the credit OF the happy result to
her own account. The majority of US
swallow this tidbit, as we would some
nauseous drug, with a wry face, and a
longing for something 10 take the taste
out of Our mouth. and those who lavish
it upon us receive little gratitude.
since it is reckoned doubtful geDer-
osity 10 give that which is useless to
ourselves, which requires no sacrifice
of US. which we are, in fact, glad to
dispose OF as so much rubbish; and
though many bestow advice under pro-
test, as a matter of conscience. yet if
every donation of this nature were ac-
companied with neuralgia twinge, an
attack of govt or malaria, and did not.
instead, leave the donor with pleas
ura5ie sense of duty fulfilled, benefit
conferred and superiority acknowl-
edged, we should not so often be called
upon to accept that which we never in
tend to use. The young mother or
housekeeper is unfortunate in being
more bounttuliy provided with this
article, perhaps, than any other of her
sex; nobody is too ignorant or mex
Perienced 10 add to the burden; she
who has never had a house to keep, or,
having had one, has never kept it; she
who has never known the care of chill
dren, or, having known that response
bility, has adroitly shirked it, is as
opulent in advice as if she had herse If
received a legacy from her friends. and
was anxious 10 share il with all man
kind. -Harper's Bazar.

The semi.annual meeting of the Ander-
son County Singing Convention, to be held
at Midway Church, will convene on next
Saturday, 9th instant, and not on the Sat
urday following, as announced last week.
The young people of the town, with fair
representation of the old folks, about hun
dred in all, spent pleasant day picnicing
at High Shoals on Saturday. Messrs. T. NJ.
White and N. X. Sullivan chaperoned the
party.
The Charleston Ne,cs and Courier donned
an entire new dress on Monday, which adds
great deal to its appearance. 1t is the
most widely circulated and best managed
paper in the Cotton States, and is rapidly
increasing in popular favor.
Col. r. E. sadler, of Hartwell, Ca, spent
several days of last week in Anderson.
We regret to learn that he is at present in
delicate health, and hope that he will soon
be as robust as usual. The Empire State
can boast of few more substantial and reli-
able citizens than Col. Sadler.
Mr.. S. A. Arnstein, of Camden, and Mr..
C. ". Rose, of New York, are at present on
visit to Anderson. The former is well
known to our people, having lived in our
town several years prior to his removal to
his present home. The latter is an uncle Of
the proprietora of the New York Cash Store
and man Of extensive means.

"Anderson is fast recovering from her
neglect of particular opportunities and be.
coming, what she has been in the past, a
strong rival to any town or city in the up
country, and by her present well developed
intention by money and means, to increase
her railroad facilities, will certainly hold
her own if she does not ontstrip her neigh
bors.
They have received there this last season
14,sOO bales of cotton, averaging $45 to $50
per bale. With the large and beautiful
churches and hourishing male and female
schools the citizens seem well satisfied but
they are not idle, nor do they intend to rest
as if their town was already built and COM
pleted. In very short time corps Of
engineers will be stalking off the line from
Anderson to Dorn's Mine, thus giving them
way to Augusta by rail at less than 80 or
100 miles. Last week the same citizens by
voluntary subscription raised $500 for an
experimental survey from Anderson to
Easley to connect there with the Atlantic
and French Broad Railroad. ."-GreenviUs

Items From New Hone and Vicinity.

We are unable to give the opinions of this
people concerning the proposed new road law,
but some of the voters desire to know what
shall be done with the hands that now work
the roads that will be macadamized, provided
the new bill becomes q law. Shall these men
be exempt from public duty while others are
required TO work the roads as they now do?
This is a question that demands public atten-
ton, and the people would like to haveit an
swered before the election. Our opinion is, that
after the roads are macadamized they could
be kept in order with the same work, and by
the same hands that they are under the. pres-
ent law, and thus relieve the public of paying
toll on their oacn roads.
The railroad excitement has not ceased, but
there is a dark gloom over the village, caused
by the fears that the road will be located east
of South River. The engineers are again sur
veying that route. and it is believed by many
that they ara permanently locating the road.
Mr.. John Firebaugh has leased his farm to his
sons and moved to this village, having pur-
chased the property lately owned and occupied
by T. g. Stout, Esq. What has been lost by
the removal of Mr.. Stout has been gained , in
Mr.. Firebaugh.
On last Tuesday Mr. Martin Cline and family,
together with others from the neighborhood,
left for Kansas by the B. & o. R. R. Mr.. Jan
drew Firebaugh also returned to Kansas after
spending several weeks with his relatives and
friends of this neighborhood.
The new preacher, Mr.. A. Weller, is expected
to preach here next Sunday. He is reported as
an active worker and a good pastor, and we

INHUMAN CRUELTY, MURDER, AND RETRIBU-
TIVE JUSTICE IN PAGE COUNTY-A NEGRO
LYNCHED FOR THE MURDER OF CHILD.
Through gentleman who reached Staunton
yesterday evening from Page county, we have
the following particulars Of fearful crime
committed in that county last week, near c.
dar Grove.
A negro man, said to be from Nelson county,
name not remembered, took with him one
morning last week white child, aged two years
and eleven months, and, for some cause I'M
known, whipped him most numerically and
left him for dead. but. finding that he was not,
took the helpless child and held him in stream
until life was extinct and then fled.
When the child was missed, search for him
was instituted by the parents and neighbors
and its dead body found in the stream, and on
it could be counted the marks of two hundred
and sixty strokes.
The neighbors Immediately started in pur-
suit of the negro who had fled, and when ov-
ertaken hid himself in some bushes. but being
fred upon, he ran and jumped into the river
and ball grazing his head he swan back tc
shore and surrendered himself.
He was taken before magistrate andl sent
on for Indictment, but that same night, Qast
Thursday he was taken by mob and hanged
to sapling about mile from Cedar Grove
His body was still hanging on last Saturday
and was seen by our informant as he passed on
that morning. A coroner's jury was summon
ed to investigate the case, but we have not, al
yet heard any further particulars than as a.
bove given.

Blackaooods Magazine for March. promptly
republished by the Leonard Scott Publishing
Co., Al Barclay St., besides the continuation Of
the capital serials now running through its
pages, offers two articles which every one on
taking up the number will be likely to turn to
at once. Perhaps the title of one of them, "An
American Statesman on Irish Atrocities" will
secure Its immediate perusal; and the reader
will undoubtedly be amused at this semi-seri-
GUS attempt to institute q parallel between
Great Britain and Ireland and Turkey and her
territories-fn both cases an allen race sbeipe
camped in conquered country. The other ar
ticle which we would particularly call atten-
ton to, is that on the 'sNorth- East Passage
giving the narrative ofsIieut Palander. the
commander of the exploring vessel Vega,
which, under the leadership, of Prof. Nordens-
kiold. left Gothenburg July 4, 1875 and by the
18th of September the same year was only ITO
miles from Behring's Strait. when its course
was stopped by the ice. and it did not getaway
till July, 1879. The article issillustrrted by a
map, showing the track of the vessels, and the
coast-line as correct by the survey.
The article "The Afghan War-Passages from
the Note Book of staff Officer" brings to our
notice other scenes in the southern part of
Asia, where the soldier is contending with
hostile tribes as well as with rigorous climate.
"Conviviality" is a description of feasts, or
rather the drinking that has accompanied them,
from the times of the Greek and Scandinavian
deities to those described by, Scott and Lever.
AOther able articles which. we have not room
to notice, complete the number. e
