A sallow complexion is Indicative of
worms. A few doses of Shriner's Indian
Nermifuge will destroy them and give a
bright and healthy complexion.

NeediCi Newell News.

I have been sitting here for some ten
minutes with my pen suspended over the
paper like somebody studying how to
make a right pretty u, wishing that | had
lime and space to make brief note of the
many beautiful dwelling houses that
have been built in this Township this
year. ,oo
At the beginning of the new year, 1882,
MANY a man will turn q new leaf, and
then proceed to blot it just as he always
did.
Nearly every farmer 7 talk with says
that he believes that the yield Of cotton In
this section is off fully SO per cent. this
year. 7 believe that if the people he'd sold
all of their cotton last fall, the cotton that
we are now selling for six and seven cents
would have brought us ten and twelve
cents. Why, because all OF this old cot
ton that is here in the way would have
been worked up by the manufacturer and
shipped out Of the country. 1t would not
have been here to make this short crop
large one. There wasn't but about half
of a crop of cotton made this year, and il
we had sold our old cotton last foil, it
would have been as easy for US to get ten
cents pound for our cotton as it Is to get
six cents now. Everything is as lively 30
we could expect, considering the low price
of cotton.
In looking over the above see that
have used the word year great deal.
Reader, how much cotton do you think
YOU will plant next planting time? Some
people say that we can rnisc cotton and
buy corn cheaper than NE Can raise corn,
but all of us don't believe that, aud with
out cotton takes rise from what 1t IS
now, We will raise our corn and meat at
home altogether. At least those Of US that
have tried to raise cotton and buy our
corn and meat will, for We have expert
ence in THAT line, know that if a man tries
it at the present price Of cotton he Will
surely get left.
When l commenced writing l knew
that it wasn't very long until Christmas,
| and thought would say that believed
| from all appearances, some OF the young
people in this world who don't live far
| from somewhere, and are not strangers to
| a good many that may read this, would
get married about that time, but when l
reflected that people were born with two
ewes, two ears and only one tongue, it
| looked a. If it wasn't in order that we
might see and hear four times as much az
we should say, 50 I will pass on.
I don't know, but I reckon there is
about one bale Of yellow cotton to every
25 acres, that I guess the people will pick
cut before they will Say they ara done.
Splash spatter! drip! drip! there
goes my new bottle Of ink, and it took all
the money I made this year to pay my
debts, and believe to my soul it would
take whole wheel barrow full of rags to
| to buy another bottle of ink like that. II
| it had not been for this new kind Of pen
! I bought from that internal book agent,
| wouldn't have had the pleasure of sign
ing my name. When / look at the broken
pieces Of my new ink bottle and think
about what Il good thing 1 done when l
bought this new tangled writing pen, |
think that L will sign my name in full,
| and so T believe will. remain, as ever,
your humble servant,

Death of Rev. Mr.. Gadsdcn.

Rev Tbomss Fisher Gadsden is dead.
| The sad announcement was about the first
neo that rsarhed our citizens last Tues
day morning rs they emerged from their
| homes, and great shock it was to every.
| body, for very few knew that thegood man
| was i'll. His illness was ofshort duration.
Two weeks ago he contracted severe
cold while in Wslhalla. He came home
and on Wednesday of last week was forced
to take his bed. He gradually grow wotse
until a severe case fpneumonia was de.
veloped, which caused his death at $50
O'clock Tuesday moruing. Ho wss
conscious up to almost The last moment,
and he passed into eternal rest without a
struggle
Mr. Gadsden was born and reared in
Charleston. and was son Of the 1T. Rev.
Bishop Gstistlen, deceased. He was born
March 6, 1889. and was therefore in the
53rd year Of his age. After being thor
oughly trained in the private schools of
his native city. he entered the South Caro-
lima College from which he graduated.
Shortly after his graduation the war came
on and he offered his services to his State

dor the command of Capt. 3. L. Parker.
a good record as a soldier. At the close OF
the war he entered the ministry of the
Episcopal Church, and about the same
time married Miss Trapier. of Camden.
His first charge was the Church at Mt
Pie. SAINT in connection with two other
parishes. He continued work there until
1877, when he came to Anderson, since
which time he has resided here, serving
faithfully as rector of the Anderson, Pen
dleton, Seneca and Walhalla Churches.
The Churches at the two latter places were
organized during his ministry.
Truly q good man has fallen, and has
gone to reap the rewards of consecrated
life spent in the service of the Lord. He
was not only greatly beloved by his own
congregations, but our whole people, Of
whatever name or denomination highly
esteemed him and will miss him IN his
work. He was frequent visitor to the
hum blest homes of our city, and wherever
he found sorrow and suffering, he was
ever ready to speak comforting word
and do anything possible in the name OF
the Saviour His memory will long be
cherished by his friends and acquaint
ances, who deeply eympathize with his
family in their great bereavement.
The funeral services will take place this
(Thursday) morning, at 11.3O o'clock, in
the Episcopal Church, and will be conduc
ted by the Rt. Rev. Bishop Howe and 9th
er ministers. At the conclusion OF the
services the remains will be laid to rest in
the Presbyterian Church Yard. The
friends and acquaintauces OK the deceased
are invited to attend the services.

Wheat sowing is in full blast in this Sec
ton, and We will, providing the seasons
are suitable, make enough to divide
"starch" with our less fortunate neigh
bors. It seems that the farmers have

Piorceto,vn Points.

The last INTkLLIGESCER brought us O
great surprise in the form Of communi'
cation signed Yankee Doodle" 1t seems
that two or three of our little pleasantries
in last weeks items have been miscon-
strued; but we have no apology to make,
for we believe with Sam Jones that 'tls
always "the hit dog that hollers." Be-
sides, it's plainly evident that the injured
and Jelcagured in this case possess com :
bination of mental faculties that are pain
fully limited in their capacity, or rather
they are over -balanced-that Is, the coarse,
inferior element predominates to such a
great extent, that we are prone to doubt
the existence of the finer sensibilities at
all in consequence of all this we feel that
the unfortunate individual deserves pity
from as rather than blame. Our commu-
nication didn't receive second thought
from us after We forwarded it to the pa
per, and we hardly dared hope that it
would be read with any degree of interest
by any one else. 1t is, therefore, very
gratifying to us to know that it possessed
enough potency to elicit reply. Truly
the "pen Is mightier than the sword" (?)
MIR. D. II. Hammond was very success.
full in selling a considerable amount OF
personal property at his country nome
last Wednesday.
MIR. Will. Tucker thinks the best exam
pie his brothers have ever set him was
their recent marriages.
Dr. G. f. johnson is contemplating
visit to Nashville for the purpose uf pay

University Of Tennessee. Wonder If he
intends paying them to any one else?
Miss Minnie Anderson, one of Pierce
towns 1airest representatives, is visiting
relatives at Liberty.
We notice that our young friend, a. l..
Smith, is inclined to "poetize" as Josh
Billings would say. Much success TO you,
old fellow!
Thanksgiving Day was not generally
observed in this section as it should have

ducts, aud on the wall hung this appro.

ested by OIL eloquent sermon, delivered
