The Barnwel People says: "This
will be hard year but the next will be
worse to the cottontots. The wise far.
mer will be sure to plant corn enough.
Cotton will be cheap next fall, and unless
made as a surplus crop will cost more
than it will bring" The plan OF check
ing cotton has been popular wherever
fairly tried. 1t can be cultivated with
less labor and the yield is generally
greater than when planted in drills. The
largest crop ever grown, FIVE bales per
acre, was made BY Mr.. Warthen, of
Barnwcll County, on checked cotton. If
enough seed are dropped in the check
there will be no difficulty in securing
good stands. A good ploughman can
cultivate carefully checked cotton with
out calling in the help of the hoe hand.

A Card to the Public.

MIR. EDITOR:
We beg leave through the columns of
your journal to announce to the people Of
Anderson County in particular, and the
balance of the world in general, that by the

We have fitted up this room to meet the
demands of our increasing business, and
will now be able to show large stock and
to better advantage than ever before.
In accomplishing this work we have not
lost sight of the fact that handsome store
room demands pretty stock Of goods, and
have therefore carefully selected beauti-
full line of Ready-Made Clothing and Piece
Goods, consisting of Broadcloths, English
and French Diagonals, Flannels, Cassi-
meres, Jeans and Cottonades. We will
also keep on hand good line of Gents
Furnishing Goods. such as Shirts, Drawers,
Socks, Handkerchiefs, Cravats and Collars,
and in fact everything that is usually kept
in a frst-class Gents Furnishing Store,
except Boots and Shoes.
We neglected to mention that we would
keep Hats and Caps, of which we have
purchased nice stock.
We will be glad to welcome our friends
in our new quarters, and hope they will
not forget us when they come to the City,
but give US call, whether they wish to
purchase or not.
We beg leave to add also that Mr.. ]. r.
Smith, who has been known so long in
our County. will occupy part of our
room, and will be pleased to see all of his
old friends. He will be prepared to Cut
Out and Make Suits, and respectfully asks
the patronage of his former customers.
Allow US to say, i'll conclusion that we
not only desire to retain the patronage Of
old customers, but hope by diligence and
fair dealing to add many others to our list.
Very Respectfully,
SMITH & co.

After the arrest of Col. Cash last week,
proceedings in Habeas Corpus were ta-,
ken out for his release by his counsel,
Messrs. Ball & Watts. Of Laurens, and
Gen. Y. J. Pope, of Newberry. before
Chief Justice Simpson, on the allegation
that his arrest and detention in Richland
County was illegal. Attorney General
Miles and Solicitor Newton appeared for
the State, and after argument the Chief
Justice decided that Cash was legally in
custody for an ofense which under the
law MAS bailable, and that he would ad-
NIT him to bail. The Counsel for Col.
I Cash suggested a.bond for FIVE hundred
dollars, while the Attorney General sug-
gested Eve thousand dollars. The Chief
Justice decided to require bond for
twenty-five hundred dollars, which was
promptly given. Messrs. John Agnew
and W. J. DeBruhl, signing the bond
with Coz. Cash, whereupon he was dis.
charged to appear at the next term of
Court for Chesterfield County, to answer
st, charge Of being accessory after the
fact in the killing of Richards. All of
the facts, brought out upon the proceed
ings in Habeas Corpus, fully justify the
action of the Governor, and the amount
Of bail required shows that there is
enough in the case to justify the charge
made against Col. Cash, and render it
proper that he should be put upon trial
for the same, according to law. This
having been done, the public can trust
the Courts to deal justly in the matter.
If COL Cash is guilty, he will doubtless
be convicted, and if innocent, he will no
doubt be acquitted. BE has been taught
that he cannot defy the law, and that he
is as amenable to its behests as the hum
blest citizen. This is what the public
welfare requires, and it was no persecu.
tion of Col. Cash to demand it. The
supremacy of the law has been vindica-
ted and a wholesome lesson set for the
people of the State.

TIE SAVANNAH VALLEY RAILROAD.

2. y g
The elections recently held in the
townships of Abbeville County, along,
the line Of this railroad, upon the propo.
sition to subscribe by taxation to its
bnilding, have resulted most satisfactori.
" to the friends of the road, and will
certainly give it new impetus which,
we trust, will secure its early completion.
The twenty thousand just voted in Alb
beville County, with the twenty five
thousand voted in Anderson some time
ago, gives the company an additional
capital of forty.fve thousand dollars
with which to renew operations. This
should be supplemented by at least fifteen
!, thousand dollars from the townships of
Hopewell, Centreville, Broadway, Va.
rennes Hall, Corner and Savannah in
this County, and ten thousand from the
City of Anderson. This would give the
road capital of seventy thousand dol
lars, and would ensure its early compile
Etion beyond doubt. Such subscrip-
tion would not be burdensome on our
townships, for it would only require the
payment of an average of little over
one thousand dollars year for two years
from each of the townships named, and
we have no doubt that each of them
would save every year, after the Savan-
nah Valley Road is completed, larger
sum in lower freights than they would
have to pay during these two years, so
that it will in that way be profitable
financial investment for our people. 1t
will improve our market, aud give new
facilities to all of our people. Its con.
struction will give US better and safer
guarantee against unjust or exorbitant
railroad rates, than all the Commissions
and laws which the State can establish
can possibly do, for it would act by the
laws of competition, which appeal to
the interests of the separate companies.
With this road as part of the Georgia
Central Road and our present railroad
connections, we would have two strong
and competitive systems, to each striving
to carry the freights of this country, and
as consequence each would have them
at the lowest profitable rate. The con-
sumer would get the benefit of this re-
ductiou, and there can be no question
that it would more than compensate for
the small investment necessary to secure
these advantages. We hope our people
will be sufficiently progressive to realize
these facts, and sufficiently public.spirit.

The Lame ,Talk Through Prayer.

P1rTsBURG, March 15.-What seems to
be genuine faith cure came to light to-
day. Miss Mary billiard, who belongs
to we'll known East End family, has
been lame for twenty years, and has been
unable to walk unless she wore boot
and steel rod fastened 10 her waist. On
Sunday she visited the house of friend,
took off her boot, and joined with three
or four others in prayer for her recovery.
At the conclusion of the prayers she start
ed for home, leaving her boot and steel
supporter in the house. She walked
freely. She says the best physicians in
London and New York pronounced her
case hopeless, and that her instantaneous
recovery is due to nothing but prayer.

Death of Miss Thompson.

Ats o'clock last evening death came
to the relief of Miss Eliza Cornelia,
eldest daughter of Governor Hug s..
Thompson, who was fatally burned on
= evening of the 4th instant. Miss
Thompson was sitting in front of an
open CRATE reading a book when her
dress took fire, and before the flames
could be extinguished she received the
injuries which have terminated fatally.
The deceased was little over l8 years
Of age. The Governor and his family
have the sincere coincidence not only OF
this community but of the entire State
in their sad bereavement. The funeral
services will be held at Trinity Church
this afternoon, at half.past 4 o'clock

i PHYSICIANS TEsT1lIoNY.-I was call
ed to see Mr.. John Pearson, who was con-
fined to his bed with what appeared to be
consumption of the worst form. AS all of
his family had died with that dread disease
Except his half brother), his death was re-
garded as certain and soon. After exhaust
ing all the remedies, l frally, as last re-
sort, sent for bottle of Brewers Lung Re-
storer, and it acted like magic. He contin-
ued the use of it for some time and has
been fully restored to health. So fur as
could discover, he had consumption, and
Brewers Lung Restorer saved his life.

Speaking of Mr.. Tilden as probable
candidate for President, the leading
Georgia politicians say: "oolonel Tom
Hardeman says he will be the Democrat
ic nominee unless he dies before the
Convention meets. Senator Brown
says nothing but the most positive pro-
hibition to use his name when the Con-
yention assemblies can prevent his nomi.
nation. Senator Colquitt says the popu-
lar demand for Tilden's nomination is
unprecedented, and it seems that he will
be nominated anyhow"
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1884-03-20

y
Our contemporaries who have been
abusing Mr.. Tilden may as we'll make
up their minds to see him nominated for
President by the Democratic Convention
in Chicago, unless he dies before that
time or positively refuses to serve. The
drift OF public sentiment is strongly in
his favor, and there is scarcely time
enough between this end the July Con-
yention to. change it. We believe he
will be nominated and elected, and it is
fortunate that We have such an available
candidate at this time-otherwise there
would be great danger Of the most seri-
GUS troubles in the Democratic canvass.

- The Ohio Legislature has passed
a law which permits intelligent citizens
to read newspaper accounts of crime
without being disqualified to act as
iurymen. The fact that man of sense
and judgment makes up his mind as to
the guilt or innocence of party accused
by newspaper may not preclude him, it
is held, from changing his views on the
presentation of additional facts. Under
this new Ohio law juries in criminal
cases will not be composed of ignorant
and Indifferent citizens as heretofore.

closest scrutiny of its ingredients and its
grand results. 1t has nothing to fear
from truth. Doctors may disagree as to
the best methods and remedies, for the
cure of constipation and disordered liver

Kidney.Wort, agree that it is by far the
best medicine known. Its action is
prompt, thoroughly and lasting.

Gov. Thompson received telegram
from q friend Of Cash last week, stating
that Cash would surrender if allowed to
stay in Chesterfield Jail. Gov. Thomp-
son very promptly replied that he had
no authority to designate where prisoners
shall be confined, aud therefore could
give no guarantee on the subject. 1t is
thought by many that Cash will not be
able to escape long, and that he will
eventually surrender unconditionally.
