morning and give us call. Mr.. Hall is
in his S2nd year, and, with the exception
of occasional attacks Of Rheumatism. is
holding his own very we'll. He informed
us that the barn and crib with all the corn
aud cotton of one or his neighbors. Mr.. j.
j. Blanchet, was destroyed by fire yester-
day. It Is supposed to be the work of an
incendiary. Mr.. Blapchet is poor man,

Ths Barnwell Sentinel 5ut it this way:
tsWe suppose that the stock of advice laid
up for the Legislature will be, strictly
! speaking, of the Tillman brand. such as
may come from the jaws Of such journals
as tho Columbia Register, the Abbeville
Mediu- the Laurensville Herald and q
few smaller lights who have never yet
found out what the soil on which they
stand Is most likely to produce. 80 far as
we are concerned, we would be pleased to
entrust the whole business 10 the Hon.
Joshua w. Ashley, of Anderaon County,
aud say no more about 1t. He is true
sReformer and would reform the Re-
formers"

The colored firemen are always ready and
willing to respond to the fire alarm, and
never tire in working to save cur homes
or other property from the destructive

Rev. r. W. Seymour, in writing to the
Oconee Ne,oS Of the recent Baptist Con.
with this paragraph: "The Convention
was one of the best we have had in years.
Anderson has treated us handsomely
gave us splendid homes and nlRtchless
hospitality, and whenever the time comes
for! us to go back to that noble, stirring
city you may rest assured that the vote
will be unanimous. Judge Cox, than
whom nicer and more afFnble Christian.
gentleman never lived, showed us all the
attention and kipdness needed. This ac-
count of our receut Convention would be
incomplete il did not say something
about the music and singing. This was
grand. No place In South Carolina can
beat it. Mrs. Cora Ligon. daughter Of the
late Ii hon. ]. P. Reed, Of Anderson, sang
several solos during the Convention. I
have heard solos In Charleston and else
where, but I have never heard any singing
to equal that of Mrs. Ligon. Her voice is
we'll trained, completely under her con-
troll, and her singing Is melting and aspir-
ing. God bless the people of Anderson"

solicited subscriptions in the city for va
rious persons, and his appearance yester-
day aroused the suspicious Of two or
three citizens, and they reported bim to
the police. The officers investigated the
matter and found that Harrington was an
imposter, and at once began looking for
him. They soon found him, and from his
condition it was evident that the Dispen-
cary had secured some Of the money that
he had collected for the relief of "Mr.
