"And do you believsme?" "Well, I suppose I'll.have to.They say, you know, that children andfools tell the truth, and you are no child,Mr. -." A cloud passed over themoon, and the young man escaped in thedarkness.

The election on subscribing $25,000 ad¬ditional for the completion of the Savan¬nah Valley Railroad by the city of An¬derson last Thursday resulted in an over¬whelming victory for the Road. Indeed,very little interest was manifested in theelection, as almost everybody concededtbat to complete the Road we would haveto make the additional subscription.There were 232 votes oast, 11 of whichwere against the subscription. Compara¬tively few negroes voted, and, as will beaeen, there was not a full vote of the whitepeople. Before the subscription can betendered the Road, the result of the elec¬tion hus to be ratified by the Legislature.This action of our people ensures the com-pletion of the Savannah Valley Railroadbeyond a doubt.

They are sold strictly forfive cents, either singly or by the tenthousand. Messrs. Wilhite & Wilhite or¬dered them especially for their trade, andsoli them at almost cost. Their custom¬ers, therefore, are enabled to get a goodten cents cigar for five cents. Try oneand you will agree with us in saying theyare fit for a king to smoke.

The Anderson Musical Club and Dra¬matic Association can congratulate itselfon having played before one of the largestaudiences last Thursday night that hasever greeted an amateur performance.To say that the audience was delightedwith the entertainment, would be express¬ing it mildly, judging from the rounds ofapplause that followed each rendition.We venture there is no town in the Statethat can boast of finer musical and dra¬matical talent than Anderson. The en¬tertainment was admirably managed byMr. J. W. Trowbridge. Those who tookpart in the musical programme were :Messrs. J. W. Trowbridge, J. H. von Has-slen, J. G. Cunuingbam, K. C. Cunning¬ham, T. F. Hill, Irvine Twitty, MastersSam. and Joe Trowbridge, Ben. Daniels,Mrs. Pinkind, Mrs. Richie, Misses Sarau¬ella Brown, Jessie and Nellie Trowbridge,Lees Wbitner, Nettie Miller, AnnieBleckley and Leila White.

Thauksglvlng in Anderson.

Thanksgiving Day was strictly observ¬ed in Anderson. All places of busiuesswere closed throughout the day, andeverybody was free to spend the day ac¬

cording to his or her own pleasure anddisposition.The day was spent in various ways.

Most persons who could get a gun wenthunting, and the rabbits and birds were

considerably thinned out. Others in¬dulged in sports and game, while a good¬ly number "loafed" around in the streets.Sumptuous dinners were also freely in¬dulged in.Uuion services were held in the Baptist

Church in the morning at 11 o'clock, thecrowd iu attendance being very large.Rev. Dr. Frierson, of the PresbyterianChurch, preached the sermon, his textbeing the 24th verso of tho 4th chapter of1st Kings: "For he had dominion overall the region on this side the river, fromTiphsah even to Azzah, over all the kingson this side the river: aud he had peaceon all sides round about him." Before ta¬king his text, Dr. Frierson said be did notthink it proper or in place for Christiansas a body to rejoice over party victories,as the Church and Government were sep¬arate and distinct; that while we may berejoicing here over the recent victory ofthe Democracy*, others in another sectionmay be deploring the defeat of the otherparty. Further than this he made no

reference to the politics of to day. Aftertaking his text, he briefly reviewed ourwhole country's history, beginning withthe time when the Puritans first landedin America, referring to its great religiousliberty and Christian privileges, then al¬luding to its wonderful resources, its fer¬tile plains aud valleys, the great riversand lofty mountains, the almost endlesssea coasts, the various climates, our man¬

ufacturing and industrial enterprises, allof which, he said, made our's the grand¬est country ou the globe, and that we hadmuch to be thauklul for. The "rtnonthroughout was very interesting in¬structive.Everybody enjoyed tho day of rest aud

felt at its conclusion a recreation frombusiness which fitted them the better toengage the following day in the ordinaryduties of their several avocations.

Gen. Beauregard's History.Leading papers, North and South, seem

to concur in tbe opinion tbat there hasbeen no more valuable contribution tothe history of the great war between theStates than that of General Beauregard.Both as to its style and as to it's matter ithas received the highest encomiums fromthe ablest and most dispassionate critics."Its worth," says the Charleston Newsand Courier,1 'cannot easily be overesti¬mated," and "one of its most valuablequalities," says the New Orleans Picayune,"is that it makes plain so many facts thathave not before been made known."The book is indeed a revelation in many

particulars. More of tbe inside historyof the Confederacy and of the causes ofits failure is told in its pages than in anyother similar work. General Beauregardwas the first general officer appointed bythe Confederate government, and was thecentral and pre-eminently conspicuousfigure in the first and most momentousscone of the great tragedy on which tbeeyes of the world were fixed when thecurtain rose in the harbor of Charleston.From tbat time onward he was conspicu¬ous either as first or second figure inthe army of Northern Virginia; in theWestern army, again at Charleston in tbeworld-renowned defence of that devotedcity; at Drewry's Bluff and Petersburg;in command of the vast "Division of tbeWest," directing the operations of Hoodand Taylor and Forrest; and at the closeonce more in the Carolinas and Georgia.The history of the campaigns in thesevaried fields constitutes a splendid pano¬rama of ever-shifting scenes, sometimesillumined by the light of victory , some¬times darkened by the shadows of defeat,but always fraught with the deepest inter¬est.In no other book is to be found so full

a history of tbe most eventful, epoch inthe existence of South Carolina. No¬where else is contained so full and authen¬tic a history of Carolina's part in thedrama in which, for four long and fate¬ful years, her fair city by the sea wasstormed at by shot and shell, and excitedtbe wonder and admiration of the worldby her heroic and successful resistance ofthe most formidable and desperate siegeof modern times. It is the book which,more than any other, will carry down toposterity the record of the heriosra of thesoldiers of Carolina, whether witli Rhettand Elliott within the grim walls ofSum¬ter, or by the frowning batteries surround¬ing it, or charging with Hampton, Ker-sbaw, Hagood, Butler and other gallantleaders on the blood-fiecked fields ofVirginia. Wherever they were duringthat long and terrible conflict Beaure¬gard's eye followed and his heart wentwith tbe Carolinians, for it was with themthat he defended Charleston so long andwell, and with them that, more thanonce, he saved the life of the SouthernConfederacy in tbe hour of its imminentperil. His history, therefore, will be ofspecial interest to the people of thisState, and should be in tbe house of everyCarolinian.

A Woman's Plea for Prohibition.

Mr. Editor : I have felt for a long timethat it was my duty to say something onthe subject of Prohibition, but knowingthat tuose I hope to benefit by writing a

few words on tho subject rarely ever reada piece after they find it touches ou thelicense question, I had almost given upthe notion until I saw that the CityCouncil had been petitioned to order ahelection on the question. So, please now,all those who are interested on the sub¬ject, and especially those who drink mod¬erately, read what I have to {'ay, if theeditor deems it worthy of printing.I tell you, dear readers, it is time we

were all at work. I do not know how thepeople of Anderson County have set withfolded arms and said nothing so long.Just as though we did not have a bar-roomin tbe City. Let every one who has theleast desiro to do away with wbiskoy sell¬ing go to work like they did for Clove-land a week before the election. Com¬paratively speaking, it is of just as muchimportance to Anderson County to pro¬hibit the Bale of intoxicating liquors, asit was to tbe United States to elect Cleve¬land. Everywhere the people are re¬

joicing oyer our grand victory, and Ibelieve it is right to rejoice over it andpraise God tbat He has allowed the rightparty to prevail, but I do not believe thatour enthusiasm will meet with His goodpleasure like it would if there was not somuch whiskey drank. How can it, wheninstead of thanking Him for giving usthe victory they drink and treat untilthey profane His Holy name ?Surely if our leading mon would

walk around the square after everybodyought to be in bed, they would see enoughto set them to work. It makes my heartache to think of the temptation that is setbefore our young men at these bar-rooms.But few of our young men are able to re¬

sist such temptation. Thero is a bar¬room at every turn. It is a disgrace tothe City. If they are able to pass onesaloon by, they do not go far until theycome to another, and perhaps meet an as¬sociate who will be offended if they donot go in and drink with him. Whilewe are working for prohibition, I thinkwe ought to.do something to put a stop tothis treating business. Many a poorman, to be considered the most liberalman in the crowd, has treated away allthe money he had, and his wife and chil¬dren at home suffering for something toeat and wear. Prohibition will be thebest law that has ever passed yet for thepoor man. He works hard all the yearround, and just as soon as he begins tosell his cotton be begins to drink up whathe has worked so hard for all the year.He calls it pleasure, but he does notknow what pleasure is, unless it was sobe could not get any whiskey, and beable to bring his money home and him¬self, wife and children enjoy it together.He would see bis family made so muchhappier that he would feel like never

allowing anybody to see him in a bar¬room again. Let us have prohibition. Ifyou can't get it in the City, put it to thevote of the County, and I think we will besure to get it then. That would be stillbetter.I am glad to see tho women in the City

are earnestly at work. Who can blamethem for their zeal ? They feel the needof Piohibition. They are the ones whoare made to suffer. If not by the loss ofa dear one, they are sure to suffer for thenecessaries of life which would be moreplentiful if it was not for whiskey. Ifwe are fortunate enough to get the law,Jet it be enforced. Punish the Doctor for

giving prescriptions so recklessly and theruggist for selling whiskey without a

prescription. The men boasted the othertime about how easy it w is for them to

get it. They always had a standing pre¬scription. Hoping that this may do somegood, I bid you adieu. Juja. /

Let us rise up and build a new church.The time is auspicious, the Reneration callsfor it, the means aro at hand. You have 8acres of land, a time-hotiored spot, withenough largr pine upon it to furnish thenecessary lumber. A saw-mill is withina mile and a half of the place; the! ownerof it is one of you, and will do a goncrousthing. With the new brick-making ma¬chine at Slabtown brought near, brick canbe made on the spot at two dollars a thou¬sand. The young men will enter into itwith alacrity. The young women willencourage them. With teams and your ownhands a good many subscription bills canbe worked out. It is time to build. Mt.Zion is building. Midway is twice as

strong. A new generation has sprung, uparound you.young, active, ardent, withkeener tastes and finer appreciation of thebeautiful. They will not be content withthe same architecture of the past. If not

Erovided for will drift from you. It is a

uilding age. We must build now or fallin the rear of an advancing age We havecome to a new era. .Old people must noticeit. A neat and tasteful edifice will interestthe children and youth, and engage theiraffections. The old people will be thank¬ful when it is done, and wonder why theydid not do it sooner. They will contem-

Edate their new structure with pride, andeave their memorial standing when theydepart to a better clime. It must be a

thing of taste. No mean edifice will takerank now. There arc hundred of niceplans to be had. Yuur people will more

readily give $50 for a neat thing, than §10for an old fashioned box. Where there isa will there is a way. You can build aseasily as say so. Let us rise to the work.Appoint a congregational meeting at an

early day to consult and make arrange¬ments. Several gentlemen have alreadysaid they will pay 8100.

A CARD.WE would like to call to the attention

of the people of Anderson County a fewsignificant facts concerning the DrugStore of HILL BROS., recently movedfrom Broyles' Building on Main Street toMcCully'8 Corner on the Public Square.Smiths' old stand.

In the first place these men endeavor,bywatching their business closely, to keepalways on band such Drugs, Patent Med¬icines, Lamps, and other articles in theirline, that parties wishing to come or sendto their Store for anything, not entirelyout of date, can always be accommodated.For instance, the season for sowing wheatis now upon us, and they have plenty ofBlue Stone for soaking it all; and so

when the bilious seasons come they havealways on hand a plenteous supply ofLiver Regulators, Pills, &c, and in thechills and fever time they double theirstock of Quinine and Chill Cures of allkinds. And even tso in the season when"young men's fancies lightly turn," &c.,that is, along about Christmas, yon can

always find there what you want in theway of beautiful Celluloid Sets, hand¬some Dressing Cases,-deliciously scentedund elegantly decorated Perfumed Bottles,Ladies' Work Boxes, lovely Mirrors andFancy Articles of every description.

It is true they keep a stock of all thesothings throughout the year, but they tryto regulate the quantities to suit theseason for which i.hey are particularlyadapted; and while even in Spring andSummer they keep their stock of Lampsfull, you will find that they have now on

hand the largest and best selected stockof Library, Extension, Stand and HandLamps they have ever kept before.it isreally worth n walk over there to see thedisplay.Another significant fact is, tbat the

Junior partner, who is the Druggist,sleeps mi the Public Square, in easy ac¬cess to those wishing Prescriptions or

Medicines prepared at night.Anderson, S. C, Oct. 1(5, 18S4.

NOTICE TO CREDITORS.All persons having claims against
