Several gentlemen are talking verj Btrongly of organizing a stock company for the purpose of building a commodi ouB hotel in thia city. A good idea. I there is any thing that Anderson need badly, it is a comfortable hotel building If some prominent man would take th matter in hand, we believe he could soot organize a company with sufficient cap! tal to erect a suitable building. Let u wake up from our lethargy and display : little more enterprise and progressive ness. Such things build up a place. An derson is growing steadily, the Savannal Valley Railroad will be completed in an other year, and tomeetthedemaudsofth inoreasing travel, we must and will hav a big hotel. Who will take the lead ii this enterprise? This Fall would be th most favorable time for organizing th company._ A Train Wrecked. The up-passonger train was wreckod t a point about five miles below this citj near Broadaway trestle, last Friday nigh lt was the day set apart for the gran Summer excursion from the low-countr to the mountains, and there wero betwee two andthree hundred passengersaboan On aoconnt of tho heavy load the trai had gotten an hour or two behind tim The greater portion of the track b tween Belton and Broadaway trestle is < the old flange tren laid upon stringer Engineer Carter was in charge of tl train, which was composed of B?X cai and, knowing that be was off of tl schedule, moved along very cautious over this portion of the Road, runnin he thinks, at the rate of about fi ftc; milos an hour. He felt his engine atril what he believed to be a "snake-head," term applied to a loose joint. The on pi: and mail car passed over safely, b when the smoking car struck it the ora came, and In a twinkling of an eye t smoking car together with the four pi songer cars were wreckod. The Soo side of the track for tho whole longth the wrecked cars was torn almost coi pletely away. One pair of truoka of ea car, at one or tho other end, were d plaoed and that end thrown to the grout Tho cars were thrown almost across t track, in a zigzag shape, though rema: lng intact and not turning over. T passengers were considerably shaken t but, strange to say, bot a singlo ono ti hort. Aa soon as Conductor Smith found tl no one was injured, he dipatched the ? glne and mail car to thia city, whore obtained thur box cars and returned the wreck. " it_ The news soon spread over the cl and qoite a crowd gathered at the dep all eager to learn the particular* of I wreck, as several of our citizen? were pecticg friends on the train. We returned with the train to the soe Arriving there wo found the passeng setting around camp Ares, patiently wi lng, ?nd doubtless feeling thankful t they had made such a narrow eses Their countenances, however, indica plainly that they would not venture s< on ?notner excursion. A? we wreck we were more than puzzled that one was injured. Indeed, lt seemed a Providence had taken special care them. It wa? almply remarkable tba one was hurt. Wo doubt if the like ever occurred before. The paaeengers *nd baggage were * transferred, and the train on ita i agsln, arriving here between 12 an o'clock? - Conductor Smith, who, by the way ono of the best officer. In the employ Sm Company, wa. cool ?nd self-posse. Induras untiring In his effort, to m tte passengers comfortable. Theoon.^ToUon train orderet the ?cen. Immediately that night, and dark Saturday afternoon tho wreck bad been sufficiently cleared to allow tho reg ular train to pass. It 1? said by thore who know that thia la the third accideut which bas occurred near thia same place within tho past BCV* eral year?. To go there aud look at that old flange iron one would be surprised that there are not more trains wrecked. Tho Company should take all this old flaDge iron up and roplace it with more modem rails aa soon as possible. The City Council. Tho new City Council was sworn in last Friday and immediately took tho reins of tho city government In band. Tho old Council lea tho treasury empty. With this fact in view, the new Council determined,- in order to koop out of debt aa much as possible, to cut down ex penses. Accordingly, tho hr:it step in this dlrectlou waa a r?duction of tho salaries of the various officers in their employ, amounting in tho ag),regate to $550.00 a year. The following officers woro then elected : Clerk and Treasurer-W. 8. Brown. Chief of Police-Joseph ll. Fant. 1st Assistant Policeman-lt. F. Mc Kinney. 2nd Assistant Policeman and Engineer of Firo Department-C. C. Cummings. 3rd Assistant Policeman and Street Ovorsoor-P. A. Spellman. Tbeso gentlemen were in tho employ of tho old Council, and their retention by tbe now Council shows that they aro effi cient, reliablo and trustworthy officors. Mayor Tolly then announced the fol lowing standing committees : On 8lreota-J. M. Payno, J. L. Farmer and P. M. Murphy. Ways aud Means-B. F. Mauldin, J. S. Fowler and J. L. Farmor. Health-Foster Fant, B. F. Mauldin and P. M. Murphy. Fire Department - J. S. Fowlor, Foster Fant and J. M. Payne. Tho new Council will necessarily be re (tilctod in their publio work until nf tor tho next taxes have boen collected, but no public enterprise tn wbloh the city ls interested will be permitted to lag. To the Voter* ot Anderson County. We hsv? read v.ilh kugrat the card of Col. J. N, Brown, in which ho saya be ls no longer a candidato for a Beat in our State Legislaturo. In our judgment, tho peoplo could send no man in this County to the Legis lature who could do moro good for the whole peoplo than Col. Brown. We con sider him an honest and able christian gentleman, and one who understands thc condition and needs of our County and State, and one who has the ability to rep resent bis follow-cltiaens well in every particular. Ho eau do as much or more to correct tho evils now existing in our laws, and to holp make better and more wholesome ones to moot the wants of tbe people, as any man that can bc elected. Wo are all vitally interested in having men olected to the next Legislature who aro good financiers, BO an to be able to make the best arrangements about the future settlement of our State debt, with out greatly increasing our already high taxes. Also men who will guard against oxcersive appropriations for tho .State House, Canals and othor things which will come before them. We know of no man in the County who could and would meet these demand", and fight for low taxes with greater abil ity and foresight thau Col. J. N. Brown. If you want low taxes Bond somo mon to the Legislature who aro largo tax pay ers themselves, for it is human nature for them to advocate and fight for low taxos with more vigor than the men who pay little or nono. For these, and many other reasons, it ls to bo hoped, and the voters of Anderson County are earnestly Bolicited, to support and elect Col. Brown, notwithstanding bis withdrawal. Wo feel satisfied that if be is called by the people, he will ably nervo them. Let lt be said, in fact, that this timo the office has sought Um man and not th? man the ouice. MARY MKMUKKB OF BKLTOH Cram. To The Public. Having beard that Mr. J. R. Pant WES tho author of the charges alluded to in my card published in last week's INTEL LIGENCER, I am now satisfied from state ments made to me by Mr- Fant that be did not originate or circulate them, and it affords mo pleasure to thus publicly exonerate bim from all blamo. JAHRS H. MCCONNELL. A Card. On Tuesday last at 0 o'clock p. m. I waa served by a U. 8.
