maligns, as ut takes too or three to make

ally invite him to come to the Institute
when our teacher gets back. We know
that he will receive him. Perhaps he will
learn that it is very poor policy to speak
of matters pertaining to Sunday School
through newspaper, and never mention
them in the schools, and yet he says "we
are member Of the Union Sunday
School," There are hopes for him, if he
is, for our idea OF work is to help the weak
and to guide the blind.
Politics now are claiming the attention
of our people to considerable extent.
We are very eager to get the papers now
in order to keep up. We were very sorry
to note that our County Convention had

Hollands Store Items.

This community was shocked to hear OF
the accident that befell Mr.. Thos. J.
Seigler on last Thursday, the 5th inst. 1t
appears that Mr.. Seigler, Magill and Lowe
were returning from squirrel hunting
about dusk, and had to pass by Ed. Hol-
ey's house, which is on Mr.. Seiglers place.
Mr.. Seigler stopped and was talking, to
Holey about some bad behavior he had
been guilty of day or two before, and
Holey, without any provocatlon at al,
struck Mr.. Seigler heavy blow on the
left side of the head, just above the ear,
with large AK, which felled MIR. Seigler
to the ground, and while he was down
Holey struck him two or three blows on
the head with the poll of the axe, which
rendered Mr.. Seigler unconcious.. Holey's
wife, in the meantime, picked up Mr..
Seigler's rifle and shot at Mr.. McGiIl at 8
distance of ten or twelve feet. Mr.. Magill
and Mr.. Lowe, thinking Mr.. seigler was
dead, ran home distance of half mile,
and gave the alarm. Mr.. Seigler, at this
writing, (the Sth) is still unconscious, and
is in critical condition, indeed.
The many friends Of Mr.. Thos. McGu-
kin, who has been quite i'll, will be glad
to hear he Is improving.
Mrs. Z. Wakefield, who fell and hurt
her hip some days ago, Is improving

The first pic mic of the season for this
neighborhood came off yesterday at
Browns Ferry, on the Savannah River.
The crowd was estimated at about three
hundred. Two hundred from Georgia
and one hundred from South Carolina.
The time was spent quite pleasantly In
riding on the river, fishing on dry land,
&c.
This neighborhood can boast Of great
many young ladies, and the prettiest ones
in the County.
Fishing on the Savannah River has been
good for the last week. BALM.

A Tribute to, an Anderson Boy.

Among theyoung men who haYe gone
out from their native homes in Anderson
County to cast their fortunes in the far
West is our young friend, Prof. j. M.
Dean, who is now resident OF Troupe.
Texas, and at the head of large and
fourishing school of that town. Prof.
Dean is the second son of our esteemed
fellow.citizen, Mr.. r. B. Dean, and like
his father, will make friends wherever be
may show his genial face. Italways gives
the INTELL1aENCER exceeding pleasure
to hear good report from an Anderson
County boy, and we know the many old
companions and friends of the Professor
in this section will read the following
extract, which is taken from Troupe
paper, with great pleasure. The paper
says: "Troupe's new school, Chiffon In
stitute, is now progressing under the
most favorable auspices, and bids fair to
be one of the best institutions in East
Texas" Then follows q, description Of
the magnificent school building, furni-
ture, grounds, etc., and concludes as fol-
lows:
"Not least, but great as the greatest
were the diplomas and certificates OF
scholarship shown Us by Prof. j. M.
Dean. The Professor graduated in 1856
az Guo Cdu IlOuStoA 4>OAuio4 Adooleoeo1
Huntsville, Texas, and his diploma bears
the names of Ex-Governor John Ireland,
as Executive, and DR.. J.. Baldwin, as
President Of the Institute. This diploma
entities Professor Dean to the privilege of
being competent to accept any school in
the State without having to submit to the
regular examinations Of County school
boards; besides is high testimonials of
his honesty, integrity and moral standing,
as everybody knows the State Of Texas
only does everything well. The Profes-
sor is Southern gentleman of nice, fine
exemplary qualities. His bearing and
department. is in keeping with the, posi-
ton he occupies in our business circles,
as one Of the principals of one Of the
finest schools the State can boast. With
out Professor Dean, at this time, Troupe
would be left in an awkward position,
there being but few men capable of filling
the important place for which he is so
we'll qualified, and now occupies so cred
liable to her school interests. Troupe
cannot part with Professor Deen."
