I pen you few items from the banner
neiehborhood of The banner County OF
South Carolina.
Mr.. r. S. Glenn, of this place, and
Messrs. Simpson and w. D. Glenn, Of
Liberty, recently returned from Glenn
Springs. The latter says he paid ten dol
lars pound for his gain. Don't consider
yourself out anything, dear Will, for your

to be improved in health.
On yesterday, in Shutdown Presbyterian
Church, very large audience listened to
an impressive sermon from Rev. DIR. Nc
Bryde, formerly of this State, but lately
from Texas. The Doctor is an earnest,
jealous advocate of his Masters cause, and
made lasting impression upon those who
were so fortunate as to hear him. The
Church at this place has secured his servl-
ces for the fourth and the fifth Sunday OF
every month.
The School conducted in the new Acad-
envy has an enrolment of sixty pupils.
MAY He who loved the little children so
much direct the teacher in his work OF
carrying light into the darkness of the
mind.
The Democrats of this Township are
anxious to learn the whereabouts of their
servants, the County Commissioners. 1t is
thought by some that they will put In an
appearance about the commencement OF
the next campaign; others think they
are too dead for that. County Fathers,
come back to us and see the condition Of
your roads, for they contain everything to
make up disaster. A physician, and we
have but one, has worn his buggy cushion
threadbare slipping from one side to the
other; but that is his fault, for he ought
to have partner. He is forced to order
compound spring buggy to save things, for
he has no one to do his patching. This is
his fault, too. He is quoted as saying that
he has to pack his cathartic pills in lint to
keep the rough roads from shaking the su-
gar off. The Doctor never makes a state
mont unless something reminds him that
he ought to do so. SlRbtoWn bridge has
ten or twelve feet OF its floor covered
three or four inches deep in mud which
never gets dry. In some parts Of the
country this sort Of thing will rot plank.
This bridge was erected with the peoples
money at cost of twelve to fifteen hun.
dred dollars, and the servants, the paid
servants, of the county ought to enforce the
law. Besides, there is sleeper gone; but
we suppose it has gone off with the other
"CountV S2eepers.' If things don't turn
about It will be back electioneering at the
next campaign, and the ticket it will sup.

this writing. IcHABoD CRANE.

EradIcatinc an Evil.

Recently there was erected in this city a
two story house, containing six or seven
rooms, and common rumOr said the house
was built for the use of number of wo-
men OF the demi monde class who would
come here from other places.
The Investigations of the police at vari-
Gus times in the past month or two have
verified this rumor beyond question.
When the character of the place became
notoriously known, the City Council
adopted an ordinance making it misde-
meanor to keep such house or to be found
on the premises.
of the house, was tried in the Mayors
Court for keeping house of the character
forbidden by the ordinance. She was rep
resented by E. B. Murray, Esq, and the
city by Geo. +. Prince, Esq.
After legal fight as to the constitution
ality of the ordinance, the defendant was
found guilty and sentenced to pay fine of
$40 or 60 to Jail.
An appeal was entered from the Mayors
decision as to the constitutionality of the
ordinance, but the Council sustained the
decision at hearing on Monday evening.
An appeal will be made to the higher
Court.
A new ordinance, which is printed in
this issue, has supplanted the old one, and
it is hoped this one will meet the needs OF
the case.
In their efforts to abate this nuisance
and preserve the morality of the city, In
80 far as they can, the Council deserve the
hearty support of every citizen of this
place. So rank an evil will receive the
unqualified condemnation of every right
thinking man and woman in Anderson,

gret among his numerous friends and pa
irons. interviewed the Doctor In re.
gard to the rumor, and he authorizes me
to say that it is all mistake, and that he
will remain with us. This will give ray

Kingdom.
Mr.. A. T. Presley, we are glad to learn,
will not leave US, but remain in the

Mr.. Editor, please notify the police that
if they see thief passing through town
with an old flour barrel filled with ma
nure to stop the thief and save the ma
nure-it is mine. I bought it from George
Taylor, who had collected it by cleaning
off Dock Watson's sheppard, and before
T could get it removed some one stole it.
I will pay as reward three quarts OF

with proof sufficient to convict.

our people are moral, peaceful, sober and
upright. We don't know Of drunkard
in the neighborhood, and but few who
make it a practice to use profane language.

There's gentleman in ''Possum Land"
Who's name we haYn't yet written,
But as he wants it mentioned very bad,
Well call him Mr.. Whitten.
OF course we're not guessing what we say,
In regard to the gentleman's wishes,
For at working the other day,
He expressed them by the busnel.
He said of all the great things he'd done,
He never yet had seen,
His name in the New York SIN,
Or any other paper been.
When he thus expressed himself,
He began to enlist our sympathy,
And we did look to the right and left,
To see of what things he was worthy.
at last we did decide,
That he's one of our best farmers,
For he always runs his rows quite wide,
And keeps cleaned out his fence corners.
If he'll just stay in the run,
And always try to persevere,
He may not get his name in the N. Y. Sun,
