A correspondent of' thc Union Times
makes tho following very pertinent sugges
tions i "I would suggest to our fat?r? law
makers the justice and expediency of chang
ing the lew in regard tn working tho roads,
so as to make all wagons and teams liable
to road duly, without allowing the owners
to claim personal exemption lor such ser
vice. I think lt nnfalr to compel a man
who does n?~'t own a horse to contribute as
much to tho repair of roads as onie who
owns many."

We regret to announce tho death of jM?s*
P. h. W. Robinson, daughter of Mt*. Janie?, j
li. Robinson, of Ahbovlllo uly, on tho
29th nit., of typhus toter, Il Jhe fifteenth
year of her ag?, alWr an iUness of nlue?oeu
day?, which she Wa with Cftittt?a?t ros** i
nation. Although young, the had been foe i
several years a consistent Vbcwiber of the
little River Baptist Church, and in her laut
sickness cherished the hops which only a |
pure ano" Christian life can Impart. The j
family have the heart.felt sympathy of their j
mends and acquaintances In their sore be
reavement.
The: if arion Merchant and farmer, speak
lng of tbs primary election system or noni,
hurting candidates, says: "This much we
do know? tltat loading mm fwar tbs> coun
ties adopting it, offioshoSdera, if you I'vase,
elected under th? primary system, denounce
it, and ?ry they would- bo glad to get rid of
lt." This ts not true of Andersen County,
nor of any otho* County that bas tried the
primary system that we IrhoW 'of. - The !
more we see pf it Jpk this County the better
wo like it, and it )s fact that nolone-can .dis
pute that' the Democracy of Anderson
County was never thoroughly united until
Ure convention system was done away
with.
It is very gratifying to see tho marked
improvements that have recently been made
in the Greenville Daily Kexcs, which <s no??
an excellent paper, in etcry respect worthy of j
a liberal patronage by tho up-country, it is
printed in small type, and contains the
latest telegraphic news from alt quarters of j
tho globe, besides able and sensible editori
als and Ml thc Stato news of general intcr
To tho people of Auderson it especially
commends itself, inasmuch as it reaches this
place cloven hours ?heed of any other dally
paper published. Tho up-country bas long
needed a Orst-class dally, and lt is gratifying j
j to seo tho degree of snccess that ls attending
the efforts of the enterprising proprietors of
? the Newt, and we ouly hope Urey may be ac
corded Utat.gOTeniurj patronage of which
! they have shown themselves"eminently de
serving.
Even tho chickens have discovered a
m.^sns of finding out tho candidates. We
I have often' heard that' they could tell
preacher from other men, bnt we never be
fore heard of them being able to distinguish
candidates, but if the story, that has reached
our ears from the Hopewell country is true,
ib?re is no doubt of the fact. It is this ;
very diligent and energetic candidate, ono
who has travel^;a.bout as-mouymiles in
tho last six. weeks as. the next one, called
on one of his friends the other day, and
after being ? in his house a few ? min ute*- an
old hen carno Into the room and flew upon
a table. 'Sire was of course driven out, but
in a few minti tea returned, when aha was
frightened out a second timo. But she was
not to be foiled in ber mission, and the first
thing they, knew she was again upon the
table, and before she could be 'frightened
off deposited an egg, on which was plainly
to be seen the seal of Anderson County, in
the centre of which was tho first letter of |
the candidates nan.e. Thia little Incident,
Of coarse, has filled tho cindldo-tn'a heart
with a new hope, and he is now urging his
claims with a still greater earnestness than
ever before.' ' .

The late i-ssnlon cf the Salada Association
St Townvllle was one of the most interest
ing sessions of that body for a number of ?
years. Although* tho'weather was very in
clement the attendance .of delegates was
large and tho audience remarkably pttcn
tivo for such a largo gathering. The busi
ness of the Association was transacted in
harmony, and tho spirit of tbs body deeply
interested in tho .promotion of all the bo
I ncvolcnt objects "in which tho body iii en
gaged. Tho''reports ' pf the various com- j
mittees were terse, \n the point, and will
doubtless impress Ute churches with tba j
subjects of which- Ure^ treat;'' The reports
from the Executive Beard were p-trUcular?y
bifurcating, showing that during the last
Association year more had been accom
plished for Missions and other benevolent
enterprises than during any previous yaar,
lie contributions having reached the sum
of eighteen hundred dollars. Nearly ' all
the churches ara ROW in hear y co-operation
and contribute to tho various objects which
the Association eccks to foster.' ;Rov. J. 8. j

The municipal election .on Monday was
tho quietest, ?without a doubt, huid in fifteen

caused an indifference Smong tho Har. ibli

The ReneSta or Ute Stock Law.
i We make this flowing ?extracta ?ffokn
letter fron? Hon. B. Fi Crayfcan to Mr. 0. :
Fulton, of Union County, about the opel
tlons of the Stock low in this County :
There ls an erroneous Idea tn reference
the amount eJ pastarage necessary to kc
np celtic. We have found that they
best on smalt enclosures and-shifted otb
as. St is ' the nature pf a cow^to look It
?f?Tjr' fvTtC? wTTixiT uurtiig mi uay ; ai
nailer onr old- system of going where tl
pleased, thoy consumed In the extra tra
what they gathered, and, as a consequen
were as porr in tho fall ns thoy were In 1
spring.
It was prophesied by opponents of I
r-Honom that it would lead to constantin
bte by stock breaking out, end by beru
trespassing upon the open fields. Such
not the case. There has been much lesa I
feeling on account of stock than formel
1 have not heard a hog squeal from be!
dogged In three years, and I have not ha
of o single ease of trespassing or travel
through nelda. It h as brougbf a great mi
waste places Into cultivation, and tai
Twusvn nny- Of ??.C CC? ?5V.C. iiiSX
too small to bo worth fencing.
X have no doubt that thin County sa'
by the change this past season from $78,
to $100.000 in tho yellow cotton, wh
would have been destroyed by? the ca
had they been allowed to run on the fit
es formerly, which I regard as a clear gt
The opponents before ita passage, said
would have no milk end butter, but tl
were false prophets, es it has greatly
creased. A remarkable cass occurred
Piedmont Factory, on the line of this i
Greenville Counties. There was bron
there in one dey 80 pounes of butter
pounds from Utis end 5 pounds from Gre
vii lo where the change was not In force.
The colored people have fallen tatt
much sooner- Uian it wes supposed ti
would, and wi think a largo majority r
favor itu Wc think, after trial, lt bent
tho rente moat es he saree the labor of
pairing *?.scs. The stock ls greatly
Eroved, iwrticutarly cattle. It baa reda
io DUmaer but greatly improved the qi
tty. Hogs are kept io smell enclosure*.
It nae greatly benefited the material
terests of our people, end If submitted <
vote to return to the former law, I hav<
idea Utet 5 pe? cent, would vote for lt.
