more blest than they haYe been this year.
We have had good rains and plenty OF
sunshine, ani corn is as fine as we ever
saw for the time Of year. Cotton is not
so good, on the account of a bad stand.

Imust say something about the City Of
Anderson. Tie people are the cleverest
of people, and no stranger is a stranger
there long. Tie first thing man hears
after he arrives in the city is hearty
"good morning" from every onehe meets,
This makes him feel like he was at home
among friends. Go to her boarding
houses and you have something good to

In company with friend e. W. Long
we went throagh the new hotel and to

The time for the Spring working of roads
has about expired, and the roads of this
community, with one or two exceptions,

One of our neighbors, who has an acre
lot OF very fine corn-the best we have
seen-was greatly distressed about a weeb
ago for fear it would be seriously damaged
by short drouth then on it, had those
feelings raised to >an alarming ertent one
night last week.. Just after the family had
retired for the night, the rattle of cow-bell
and breaking down OF corn was distinctly
heard in direction of said lot. At opce
father and sons, en- dishabille, hied away tc
the corn, to surround, capture and pen the
cows-but 10 the bell ceased to jingle, and
no cow could be- found. Imagine his cha
grin when on examination next morning
he found only the tracks of a neighbor
who had taken ss,s precaution to borrow al
his saootin0.Ioss the evening before. Il

over now, ask MIN if the COWS damaged
his crop very extensively !?
