Mr.. r.J. w. Trowbridge paid Anderson
visit last week for the purpose OF entering
business here rs merchants broker. he
expressed himself as greatly pleased with
Anderson, and was surprised to find the
town as large as it is. He thinks the An
derson newspapers do not boast enough OF
our advantages and the Importance Of the
town. It,is customary in many places to
magnify towns in the local newspapers, but
the rule in Anderson is never to say any
thing which we not believe to be true. Mr..
Trowbridge expects to begin business here
soon, and we wish him abundant success.
We understand that the valuable water
power, and two hundred and seventy-two
acres of land surrounding it, belonging to
Mai. Geo. w. Anderson, near Williamson,
has been sold to Charleston capitalist for
ten thousand dollars. 1t is proposed at
once to erect cotton factory upon it, in
which enterprise capital of 100000 is to
be employed We congratulate our Will
liamston friends upon the prospect of such
desirable and profitable enterprisein their
midst. 1t will certainly add very mach to
the growth and Importance Of their -four
ishing town.
AS the days grow longer and the sun gets
hotter with each succeeding day, the de-
mand fos refreshing and cooling beverages
naturally increases, and soon the most pop
ular places of resort will be those where
the best soda water: lemonade, etc., is
to be found. Mr.. A. P. Hubbard has long
enjoyed an enviable reputation for the ex-
cellence of his soda water, and on Tuesday
afternoon afforded the entire force of the
INrELLIGENcER IN opportunity of testifying
to the fact that its standard is equal to that
of former years. The Little Man" was
once typo himself and has not yet for
gotten the pleasure such kindncsses afford
the weary printers.
We are panied to record the death of Mrs.
Bridget Kennedy, which occurred at the
residence of her husband, Mr.. NJ. D. Ken
nedy, between - and l o'clock on Thurs
day morning of last week, after long and
painful illness from disease of the lungs.
Mrs. Kennedy was native of Ireland, was
in the 5Sth year of her age and had lived in
America since 1858. She was an excellent
lady, and had many friends in our midst
who commingled their tears with those OF
her bereaved husband and children. Her
remains were consigned to their final rest
ing place on Friday afternoon in the lot in
this place owned by the Catholic Church.
Messrs. Lucas & Richardson, of Charles
ton, have purchased the Grcenville Daily
Nc,cs, and will continue its publication in
the Mountain City. These gentlemen have
secured the services of Mr.. A. B. Williams
as the editor of their paper, and in doing
so have assured their patrons of live and
progressive newspaper. Mr.. Williams has
for several years been one of the most sue
cessful and interesting correspondents of
the Charleston Ners and Courier, in which
capacity he has earned a high reputation as
q journalist. We are glad to welcome him
to the up-country, and have no doubt the
Ncus under his management will exert an
extensive influence, and in every way prove
u successful daily journal.
