i. Note carefully the new advertisement
of Mr.. John NJ. Hubbard & Bro. The
senior member of this firm has just re-
turned from the North, where he has
purchased the largest stock ofjewelry,
watches, clocks, silverware, china ware,
etc, that has ever been brought to An
derson. These: goods are arriving daily,
and it;is a treat to visit their store and see
them. Few cities in the South can boast
of such an establishment as these gentle
men own.
There was a case of robbery ia the city
last Tuesday afternoon, near the Sayan-
nah Valley depot. Two negro boys by
force took from. Mr.. T. D. sloan's little
boy, aged about IL years, a satchel contain
ing $10,0 90. They were soon captured by
Policemen McGruder and the money re-
covered. The case was settled Tuesday by
q colored parson of the city taking the
boys from the calaboose and giving them
about forty lashes. This was probably the
best settlement that could have been made
of the case.
i We invite your attention to the adver-
tisement Of Messrs Cunningham Bros,
which appears elsewhere. These gentle
men are daily receiving their stock of fall
and winter dry goods, boots, shoes, hats,
groceries, ETC., which they are determined
to sell, and they will make it to the inter-
est of every one of our readers to call and
inspect these goods. This is one ofour
most reliable firms, and persons trading
with them may rest assured >of always
getting the full value of their money.
Yesterday frank Chester was tried before
Trial Justice Wardlaw for rescuing calf
that had been impounded while trespass-
ing. The judgment was guilty anda fine
OF five dollars, the least fine allowable inn
posed. 1t would be we'll for this to be
remembered, that it is misdemeanor to
take stock from the possession of one who
has captured them while trespassing on
his property. The law directs the course
of procedure, and it should be followed
out. The calf in this case was not worth
more than a dollar or two. The law
must be respected. .
