The merchants and business men gen?
erally of Anderson have unanimously
agreed to close their respective places of
business on Thursday, 24th day of No?
vember, to observe Thanksgiving Day.
Therefore, there will be no business
transected in the city on that- day. Our
friends in the country shonld bear this in
mind, and not bring any cotton or other
produce to the city on that day.
The Edge?eld Monitor pleads thus:
"We have a considerable subscription
list, and there are very few men on it who
do not no w owe us for one year. Many of
them owe us for two year j, and some for
three. In the stringent times of the past
twelve months, our manhood and gentil
ityhave forbidden us to trouble any of
oar subscribers. At present the matter is
different. Money is tolerably plentiful.
And now the manhood and gentility
should be on the other side- And it will
be. We feel that we need say no more."
We desire every reader of the Intelli
gencer to read carefully the new adver?
tisement of McCally, Cathcart <fc Co., as it
contains information for the general pub?
lic. These gentlemen have in store one of
the largest stocks of general merchandise
they have ever brought to this market,
and if you will carefully inspect their
goods you will find that they are selling
them at remarkably low prices. They
are agents for the sale of the Barbour cot?
ton seed and grain crusher, one of which
every farmer in the County should have.
Go and examine it.
Those of onr citizens who visited
Charleston last week speak in the highest
terms of the grand old city, and the way
she treated her "country cousins." The
programme for the entertainment of vis?
itors was carried out fally, and was ex?
ceedingly interesting. While the crowd
was large, ample accommodations were
had for all, anfrno exorbitant prices were
charged. Charleston has done herself
credit, as we knew she would do, and we
feel safe in saying that if she repeats her
"Gala Week" next year, every one who
went this year will go back again and in?
duce others to go with them.
We notice that Brother Sims, of the
Orangeburg Times md Democrat, assisted
by the noble and patriotic ladies of his
town, is using every effort to erect a
monument to the memory of the Confed
?ate dead of Orangeburg County, and
that his efforts are about to be crowned
with success, a good sum having already
been secured for the purpose. It is a
grand, noble undertaking, and is worthy
of imitation by every County in the State?
Can't Anderson County erect a monument
to the memory of her sons who died for
the "Lost Cause V Suppose some of our
ladies take hold of the matter. The In?
telligencer will assist and serve them
in every way possible.
The Greenville Enterprise and 3lountain
eer, of last week, says: "Dr. R. Furman
Divver, of Anderson, will establish a
new machine shop in this city about the
first of the coming year. Dr. Divver is a
former citizen of Greenville, having left
here some fifteen or sixteen years ago.
He has the reputation of being an expe?
rienced machinist, and was Superinten?
dent of the workshops of tho Greenville
aud Columbia Railroad at Helena, during
the presidency of Col. H. P. Hammett.
We will welcome his return to our midst." !
We asked the Doctor if the above state?
ment was correct, and he replied that he
was thinking over the matter, but had
not fully made up his mind. We would
regret to see the Doctor leave Anderson.
When Mr. and Mrs. Rufus Fant re?
turned home from Church last Sunday
night they discovered upon entering the
house that a burglar had been inside du?
ring their absence. Mr. Fant, upon leav?
ing home, had extinguished the lamp and
sat it upon a table near the door. When
he returned, the chimney was standing on
the table, but the lamp was turned over
on the floor and the oil running out. An
investigation of the house and premises
was at once made, bat nothing was missed
therefrom. A brick bat was found upon
the floor, and a dish pan, which had been
left in tho dining-room, was foand in the
yard. The thief, it is supposed, entered
the house through a window, as a box had
been pulled out from under the house im?
mediately under the window. The burg?
lar was evidently frightened away by
some one passing along the street, and
did not have time to secure any booty.
Our ottice was honored with a visit last
Monday morning from our highly esteem?
ed friend, Col. W. S. Fickons, of Brushy
Creek Township. Anderson County has
few such citizens as Col. Pickens. He has
been a tiller of the soil all his life, having
gathered forty-three crops, during which
time he has made only thirteen bales of
cotton. He has made small grain and
corn a specialty, and has never purchased
a pound of bacon. He produces almost
everything he consumes on his plantation,
and his success proves that his plan is the
correct one. While he is in comfortable
circumstances, had it not been for the
misfortunes of the war, he would to-day
have been one of our wealthiest citizens.
The Colonel is full of life and an intelli?
gent gentleman, and it is a real pleasure
to listen to him talk.
Death has invaded another happy home
of Andersou County and removed there?
from a devoted wife and a loving mother,
in the person of Mrs. Susan Norris, wife
of Col. J. W. Norris. Her death occurred
last Sunday morning at G o'clock, and
though not unexpected, it has brought
sorrow to a wide circle of friends and ac?
quaintances. 4 Mrs. Norris had been in
feeble'healtk for some time past, and for
the last few weeks was a great sufferer,
but she bore her sufferings with that pa?
tience characteristic of a true Christian
woman, and when the summons came she
.was prepared to meet it. She was truly a j
good woman, and was held in high es- j
teem by her many friends, who will long
cherish her memory. She was about G2
yf.ars of ago, and had been for years a
faithful and consistent member of the
Presbyterian Church. Her remains were
interred in the graveyard at Roberts
Church on Wednesday, the funeral servi?
ces being conducted by Rev. D. E. Frier
son, D. D.
Tho Postmasters' Convenlon.
According to announcement, a conven?
tion of the 3rd and 4th class Postmasters
of the Third Congressional District con?
vened in this city last Friday evening.
The convention, though small, was full
of interest.
Mr. C. W. Webb, of Anderson, was
called to the chair, and Mr. A. N. Todd,
of Belton, requested to act as Secretary.
A series of resolutions, introduced by
Maj. T. H. Russell, setting forth a plan of |
organization and other matters pertaining
to the objects of the Convention, were
discussed and adopted, after which the
convention was permanently organized
by electing the following officers: Pres?
ident, C. W. Webb, of Anderson; 1st
Vice-President, A. W. Hudgens, of Easloy;
2nd Vice President, W. E. Cothran, of
McCormick; 3rd Vice-President, T. JE.
Stribling, of Walhalla; 4th Vice-Presi?
dent, L. S. Bowers, of Prosperity ; Secre?
tary and Treasurer, A. N. Todd, of Belton ;
Executive Committee, C. W. Webb, T. H.
Russell, A. W. Hudgens, A. B. Carpenter,
H. B. Zimmerman and J. W. Norris.
The following delegates were elected to
the National Convention : J. W. Norris,
J. S. Cothran, jr., G. W. Greer, T. H.
Russell and T. C. Lites.
J. W. Norris and C. W. Webb were ap?
pointed to prepare a memorial to Congress
asking that the compensation of 4th
class Postmasters be increased.
The President and Secretary were in?
structed to issue a call to the Postmasters
of the District asking them to contribute
a sum sufficient to defray the expenses of
at least two delegates to the National
Convention.
After some remarks by several of the
Postmasters, tho convention adjourned to
meet at the call of tho Executive Com?
mittee.

Cherokee Items.
In our former communication we neg?
lected to say anything in regard to our
section. We are in a fine farming coun?
try, between East and West Cherokee
Creeks.
The friends of Mr. Green Taylor, who
has been quite ill for several weeks with
pneumonia, will be glad to know he is
improving. ;
Mr. W. J. King carried 1200 pounds of
seed cotton to Mr. J. P. Haynie's gin, and
it yielded him 500 pounds of lint. It was
of the Peterkiu variety. It would pay us
all, brother farmers, to plant the Peterkin
seed.
If rumor is correct, our Noai's Creek
correspondent will soon lose one of his
best young ladies.
It is a pleasure to ride over that section
of the public road leading from Belton to
Storeville, which is under the manage?
ment of Mr. Newt. Willingham. He
works it strictly according to law, and is
the right man in the right place. We
need more such Overseers.
Cherokee had one representative in
Charleston last week in the person of Prof.
Charles Kay, Cherokee.
A Suggestion.
Mr. Editor : As a taxpayer I may be
pardoned for saying I have always taken
a lively interest in whatever affects the
welfare of our County. I am an advocate
of substantial improvements. I boliove
the truo secret of economy in the conduct
of tho County's affairs is found therein,
In the matter of the construction of
costly bridges, for instance, I believe the
streams where the principal currents of
travel cross, these should be bridged first,
and as tho County grows richer in reve?
nue, attention could be given to local
claims.
Without meaning to criticise our Coun?
ty Commissioners, or the communities di?
rectly concorued or benefitod, I may say
I never favored the idea of locating the
iron bridge at Sloan's Forry, which was
haplessly destroyed' by tho late freshet.
The advisability of its reconstruction at
this time, when the County is forced to
such heavy expense to repair the damages
caused by the freshet, is a matter of seri?
ous concern. Our Commissioners should,
it seems to me, rebuild only such bridges
as are indispensable; and the fact that tho
bridge at Sloan's Ferry can be dispensed
with is an argument, in sonio sense,
against the wisdom of its erection at that
point at the outset.
I would suggest that such portions of
tho bridge as were saved from tho wreck
be placed under a shed, and rebuilt on
tho substantial stone piers of Earle'a
Bridge when the superstructure again
becomes unsafe, and the County would
thon have a bridgo which would with?
stand tho severest tests.

The Xexl Great Sensation.
New York is .soon to be treated to some
experiments in flying machines. A
company of sober and practical men
claim that they have solved the problem
of aerial locomotion, and they intend to
give exhibitions of their machine at the
American institute fair, now in session.
The flying macbinos I speak of are to
be propelled by electricity. What the
fabric is built of, or what its plan of con?
struction is I do not know. Ah, if we
could but produce aluminum easily and
cheaply, that would settle the business at
once! This is perhaps the grandest "if
that bi.flles science to day. Here is a
metal as strong as steel and light as
wood, and filling the world with its
abundance, and yet nobody can resolve,
it save at an expense which deprives it
of commercial usefulness. The largest
block of it in the world, I believe, is the
triangular cap which crowns the apex of
the Washington monument.
I am told that there are more inventors
at work on this aluminum puzzle than on
almost any other. Every few weeks we
hear a shout of "Eureka!" but somehow
the metal remains as scarce and costly
as before. I could tell a very pretty
romance of aluminum if I wished, but I
don't. But the greatest romance of all
will be the actual discovery of the way
to get it out of its sulks into the service
of man. That done, and we shall soon
be flying through the air, and doing
about as we please with nature generally.
?Boston Advertiser.
? Smokers will be interested to know
that not a thousand miles from Albany
there is a firm which makes large quanti?
ties of paper for smoking purposes.
The plan of operation is said to be this:
The paper, on reaching the tobacco ware?
house, is repeatedly soaked in a strong
decoction of the plant. It is then cut up
and pressed in moulds which give to each
sheet the venation of the genuine leaf
tobacco. So close is the imitation that
expert tobacco men and habitual smokers
have been deceived. At a recent gather?
ing in this city cigars made from this
paper tobacco were passed around and de?
clared excellent. Many of those present
declared the cigars were made from rare
brands, and so well was the imitation
carried out that one man actually insisted
that there could be no mistake about the
cigars being genuine tobacco.?Albany
Express.
? An attempt was made last Thursday
night near Yorkville to wreck the north
bouud passenger train on the Chester &
Lenoir railroad, which is operated by the
Richmond & Danville. An iron rail was
fastened across the track near the point
where the train goes on a high trestle.
The engine, fortunately, knocked the
obstruction off without sustaining any
damage.
