The best money.maker on the farm is
the hen. She turns grass into green
backs, grain into gold,, aud from the sand
and gravel she coins silver. There is
nothing else on the place to compare with
her. The crops are slow and uncertain.
The CATTLE and horses are heavy consum-
ers, and to get their value We must part
with them; but not so with the hen. In
her small way she is gold mine on the
face Of the earth sSmill that grinds that
which others overlook or refuse. s4
Rev. q. p. Watson filled his pulpit in
the Methodist Church last Sunday morn
ing for the first time since his recent ILL
ness. He is yet quite weak in his body,
and he had to deliver his sermon sitting
in chair. This, however, did not de-
tract anything from his sermon, which
was presented in his usual impressive and
interesting manner. The INTELLIaENcER
joins his many friends in wishing him a
speedy restoration to health, aud may he
long be spared to work in the Masters
vineyard.
Last Thursday afternoon Mr.. g. G. Ma.
jor met with very painful accident at
the Anderson Ginnery. He was in charge
of the machinery, and while attempting to
arrange belt the shirt sleeve of his right
arm was caught by screw, which contin-
ued to revolve rapidly until it struck the
flesh, which was terribly lacerated from
his elbow to his shoulder, on the under
side of his arm. DR.. J. o. Wilbite dressed
the wound, and Mr.. Major is getting along
very we'll. It wasa narrow escape from q
horrible death.
Prof. w. E. Breazeale, in private note

Ann Sloan, colored, who has been q
cook and nurse at the County Poor House
for the past thirteen years, died at that
place last Sunday, and the announcement
of her death vas heard with deep regret
by all her friends and acquaintances,
both white and colored. She was faith
fu], jealous Christian, and had the conf
dence and esteem of all who knew her.
Mr.. King, the Steward, says her place cam
not be filed at the Poor House, as she, by
her kindness and careful attention in look
ing after the wants of the unfortunate In.
mates, was greatly beloved by all of them.
George Williams, slick negro horse
thief, is now being taken care of by Sheriff
Gaines. He stole horse up near Seneca,
came down into Hopewell Township, aud
traded it to Mr.. D. ]. Tucker for mule,
The thief then came to the city and traded
with Mr.. Magruder. Along about the
same time Mr.. E. J. Strickland, of the
Craytonville section, had horse stolen
from his stables. The Seneca man, Mr..
Tucker and Mr.. Strickland have recovered
their AMI mails, but Mr.. Msgruder has not
yet secured his. Williams is no doubt q
member of gang of thieves who are op.
| Grating in this and adjoining Counties. It
would be we'll for our friends in the coun.
try to watch their stables more closely.
