A Correction.

While we were absent from the Office
one morning about three weeks ago, q
gentleman brought in several fine cotton
stalks. One of the compositors received
them, and asked tho gentleman for his
name. The compositor understood him
to say w. A. McFall, and 80 wrote it
down. When We came IN, the cotton
stalks and name were handed to us, aud
we mentioned it in the local columns.
Mr.. w. A. McFall says he was not the
man, that he never sent the cotton stalks
here, and requests us to make the correc-
ton. We cannot account for the mistake
other than that the compositor misunder-
stood the gentleman and got the wrong
name. Mr.. McFall, however, is one of
the most progressive farmers in Ander-
son County, and generally has as fine
cotton, grain, &C., as any man, but he
never tells the newspaper men about it.

An Important hInttor.

Our office was honored astlFriday with
call from Mr.. e. l.. Roche, Agent Of the
Department of Agriculture, who was in
the citv in the interest of the display to
be made by this State at the New Orleans
Exposition. It is the desire of the De.
partment that each County In the State
make display OF specimens Of its wood,
minerals, grains, fruits, 60. Leading
gentlemen in each township of this Coun-
ty will be appointed by the Department
to take charge of the matter, and aa soon
as this is done 1t is proposed that they
shall hold O conference in the city at an
early day, when MFR. Roche will meet with
them and explain the details. Nearly
every County in the State Is taking active
stops to be represented at this great exit
bition, and Anderson County-the banner
County Of the State-cannot afford to not
have display Of her resources. We can
make a very creditable display, and It
will be valuable advertisement for our
County. Let us all take an interest Ia
this matter, and get up o display that win
not be equalled by sny County in the
State. Persons having specimens of sea-
soned timber, fine samples of grain, or
excellent varieties OF fruit, can do much
towards getting mp exhibits by sending
them to the Department at Columbia.
The fruits will be preserved and the tim
ber put in proper condition for display at
the expense OF the Department. AS soon
as active steps are taken by tho gentlemen
to be appointed by the Department we
shall have moro to say on this subject,
when we hope to be abls to present the
details in a more extended manner.

Heavy Rains.

Since Saturday afternoon the rains
through this section of country have been
frequent and heavy. On Tuesday there
was q very heavy rainfall through the
day. the clouds coming from the East
and Southeast. The water courses are
higher than they have been for man;
years. We fear much damage has been
done to the wheat and oat crops, which
were cut but left In the fields, and to the
bottom land corn, as all the bottom lands
are covered with water. We learn that
the railroad bridge over Broadway Creek
is much damaged, the foundation of one
of the benches being undermined and
the track sunk, and that below some
hundred yards of the track Is washed
away. The down trains, however, with
the delegates to the State Convention was
on time on Wednesday and with the as
sistance of trains from below, meeting 1t
ct the breaks, expected to take passen-
gers through to Columbia.

Mr.. ED. G. CAMPBELL, formerly
editor of the CHRONICLE, but more
recently connected with the Pensa-
cola Advanced Gazette, has resigned
his position on the latter paper.
He went from here to take a subor-
dinate place on the Advance-Ga-
zette, but was soon promoted to Ed
itor in chief and required to attend
to the entire business of the office.
His manifold duties. didn't leave
him proper time to devote to his
editorial work, and considering that
the Advance-Gazette was a paper
just making an effort to resurrect
itself from dead failure, it is easy
to understand that he labored under
great difficulties. We are not in
formed as to what are Mr.. Camp
bells intentions for the future, but
we hope he will continue in the
newspaper work and secure place
more fitting his abilities.

the Storm.

The touch of the tornado in
Clarksyille on Tuesday of last week
was light stroke compared with
the destructive work done by high
winds on the same day in other
sections. A hurricane visited the
overfiowed district along the Ohio
river, and added to the horrors of
the situation in that unfortunate
region by completing the work of
destruction which the waters had
begun. The greatest storms pre-
vailed in Georgia and Alabama,
where there was much loss of both
life and property. The Atlanta
Constitution of Goth inst. gives a
full account, of the disaster, and
contains map indicating the path
of the cyclone. 1t seems to have
originated in South Alabama, near
the Georgia line, and to have come
North, along the banks of the APP
palachicOla till about so miles South
of Columbus, it divided, one branch
going little North of East through
Georgia, and the other Northwest
to Leeds. Ala. AT Leeds, the Con-
stitution's map indicates that the
storm turned in its course and went
again through Georgia, on track
parallel with the one made by the
branch that forked off South of
Columbus. Our theory is that there
was another division at Leeds, and
one prong came directly North,
GAINESVILLE. 1t was not so
severe as the other branch that |
went through Georgia, and its path
Is not marked by such devastation,
but we have heard from it in all
our exchanges South of this point
to the Alabama line.
The Constitution estimates the
number of lives lost at over 300.
At Leeds, Ala, the work of de-
was complete, not a tree
Or house was left standing. One
nan was blown three hundred
yards, and when found not YES
age of clothing remained on him,
md nearly every bone in his body
vas broken. Near Franklin, Geor-
ria, one white family living on the
arm of F. G. Moore, were all miss
ng, and every vestage OF the house
hey occupied was blown away.
Numerous scenes of this kind are
elated all over North Georgia,
where the loss of life was dread
ul.

BUSINESS Notice.

We wish again to say to some of
our patrons who are in arrears to
the CHRONICLE, that in consequence
of the damage done us by the storm
last week, we are needing money,
and would DE glad to have them
settle their accounts as speedily as
possible. The immediate damage
we received from the storm was
considerable, and in addition to
that was the expense necessitated
by moving and removing the JOB
office, and the great loss of time it
entailed. We are not supplicating
help, but we are bound to collect
what is due Us, and we therefore
ask those patrons whom we have
shown great indulgence in the past,
to favor US with an early settlement
of their accounts.

somewhat suggestive of the Chicago
Chamber of Commerce, but only in
limited way,
There was some difference OF
opinion rs to the best time for hold
ing this sale but the executive COM
inittee acted wisely in having it
then and there. The interest in the
show was at its uppermost and no
better time could have been chosen.
Probably better prices might have
been realized at private sale, but
that was not the object. The seeds
sold in that way would have gone
into the hands of the few while the
prime purpose of the show was to
distribute them among the many.
The farmers of Montgomery
county have covered themselves all
over with glory in this undertaking.
1t has inaugurated system of ag-
ricultural exhibitions on a new and
original plan, and one with a more
utilitarian point in view than such
shows usually have. It's practical
results are bound to be seen in the
coming crop. 1t has fully initiated
the era of progressive farming that
is beginning to dawn on this section
and brought the Montgomery coun-
ty agriculturaIist abreast with the
spirit of the new South. The list of
premiums and exhibits will be
found elsewhere.

Messrs. B. F. Hardin & Co., the
well-known carriage manufactures
ofthis city, had a handsome display
OF buggies, &C., at the seed show.
These vehicles lined the sidewalks
around the Court House and were
objects of much interest to the
crowd of visitors. A very decided
compliment to Messrs. Hardin &
Co., and an evidence of their superb
or haudicraft, lies in the fact that
one OF these buggies was purchased
on the ground by a gentleman from
Nashville. The vehicles exhibited
were all of the latest styles and the
artistic workmanship displayed in
their make up would have done
credit to any mandatory.
