The young gentlemen hope to make a success of the society, and in the near future to have a nice hall, comfortably furnished, and a supply of good- reading matter. It is a step in the right direction, and we hope the young gentlemen will receive the encouragement of every good citizen. Our Vlalt to Hartwell. Last Saturday, in company with Mr.

H. H. Wilcox, of Greenville, we crossed the Savannah and spent Sunday in attendance upon the Harwell, Camp Meeting. We had vjsrad the beautiful town of Hart well or four years. ago during the Canrrj Meeting, and we had not forgotten the pleasures of that trip.

Our visit this time was equally as pleasant, and perhaps more so, for we met many old friends and found the acquaintance of many new ones. The Camp Ground is situated about three miles west of the town, and is a beautiful place. It was located about fifteen years ago, and the meetings are ul ways largely attended by the people from not only Hart County, font, also from all the surrounding counties. The meeting usually continues for a week, four services being hold each day. The people lay aside all business cares and go there and spend the week wor? shipping God, and the meetings are always productive of much good.

On Sunday the crowd in attendance was immense, and it was the most orderly and best behaved crowd we have ever seen gathered together. Four able and effective sermons we're preached during the day, and close atten? tion was paid by the crowd. The people of that section can't be ex? celled In'the United States for genuine hos? pitality and kindness, and it does a stran? ger good to mingle with them. Of course, we put in a good portion of our time with the young ladies, a large number of whom we met. They are as courteous and socia? ble as they are pretty and amiable, and we don't blame friend Wilcox, or any other Carolina boy, from falling in love with them.

Elberton, Bowman, Athens and other towns were represented at the meet? ing by some of their fairest belles. During our visit we bad the pleasure of meeting and conversing with Hon. John B. Benson, one of Hartwell'fl most pro? gressive and energetic citizens. Mr.

Ben eon is a native of Anderson, but for the past thirty-five years has been a citizen of Hartwelh Despite his age, he is as lively and vigorous as ever, and bis mind is stored with many pleasant and interesting incidents that happened in our County years ago. When he shall have passed away, Hartwell will never get another cit? izen who can fill his place. Editor McGill, of the Hart wall Bun, is as bright and cheerful as ever. Time deals gently with him. He was always a hand? some fellow, but as he grows older he gets better looking.

Hartwall could not well get along without him. Several Andersonians have adopted Hart well as their borne, among them Messrs. J. Morris, J. M.

Ividd and M. R. Casey, all of whom are doing well. For many pleasnres of our trip, we arc especially indebted to our yonng friends, Jas. Skelton and Waller Hodges, both of whom are numbered among HartwelTs most popular young men.

We returned home Monday, feeling more than repaid for our trip, and will go back againitohen the opportunity presents itself. The Municipal Primary. In accordance with the recommenda? tions of the local Executive Committees of the two city Democratic Clubs, a primary election to nominate a Mayor and six Aldermen was held last Monday. The Executive Committees recommended the majority plan for selecting the candidates, but there was some opposition to this plan, and the Clubs decided upon the plurality plan. Last week it was the general opin? ion that tbe election wouM cause some ex? citement and a lively contest, but such was not the case.

Everything passed off qui? etly, and a stranger in the city would not have kuown that election was being held, unless told of it. There was no big interest manifested in it, as is shown by the vote, there being only 181 votes cist. There was no opposition to Mr. J. L.

Tribble for Mayor, and he received all but nine of the votes cast. The following is the vote for the Alder? men W. W. E. Watklns.148 J.M.

E. Brown.1. S. M. Orr.I.66 J.

M. Sullivan.a.62 L.H.Seel.53 B. F. Moss.41 Several other gentlemen received a few votes. Of the gentlemen above it is but fair to state that Messrs.

Orr and Sullivan posted a notice at the boxes that they, were not candidates for the position of Aldermen, and would not if elected. The first six gentlemen, having received the highest number of votes cast, were de? clared the nominees, and they, with Mr. Tribble for Mayor, will certainly be elected at the municipal election next Monday. It is a good ticket, and our city govern? ment will be in safe hands for another two years. Twlgga Items.

This section was visited by one of the heaviest rainfalls known for years on tbe night of the 30th ultimo. Wilson's Creek and other streams overflowed their banks, and were higher than they have been for years. Bridges, fences and corn were washed away in many places. The cotton crop is on a big boom, and never more promising in this section. Notwithstanding the big freshet, our far? mers are jubilant, and look forward to a bountiful harvest.

We are feasting upon all kinds of garded vegetables, water and muskmelons, peaches, apples, grapes and other fruits. It would be a treat to' you, Messrs. Editors, to come down and spend a day or two with your "Country Cousins" at this season of the year. The campaign meetings have been well attended in this section, and our people have bad an excellent opportunity to become acquainted with the candidates, and judge of tbe merits or demerits of every one in tbe field. Rav.

H. M. Allen closed a week's meet? ing at this place last Sabbath. The meet? ings were well attended, and we trust much good was done. Col.

A. Child worshipped at Cross Roads last Sunday, and delivered a wholesome and timely address to tbe Sunday School in tbe morning. Rev, H. C. Fennel, pastor of the church at Yareones, preached one of his best ser? mons at Hebron last Sunday night.

He was greeted by a large and appreciative audience. Rev. A. M. Atta way will commence a series of revival meetings at Hebron, on Thursday night, 16th inst.

Several of our citizens went down to Lowndesville last Saturday to attend the big political meeting. Many of them re? turned hungry and disappointed. Quite a number of our people who are afflicted, have been visiting the "Indian Doctor," near Belton, and receiving treat? ment. We have heard of no miraculous cures among them yet. Every person who has the least pain or ache speaks of going to him for treatment.

Messrs. P. B. Allen and B. F.

Gentry, who have been on tbe sick list for several days past, are up and stirring again. The home of Mr. and Mrs. E. C.

Pruitt was visited by a little stranger bouncing little Mr. G. L. McQee, who has boen spend? ing several days in this community, has returned to his borne in Walhalla. Miss Ludie S.

Bozeman, a oharming young lady of Ninety-Six, who has been visiting the family of Mr. J. H. Simmons, at this place, returned home last Monday. Messrs.

Newton Clinksoales and son haye located their saw mill near Hebron church, and are engaged in sawing ber for our citizens. Messrs. E. M. W.

D. Gray and Milton Evans, contemplate building large, roomy barns for tbe storage of for? age, and as a better protection totbelr "Omega." High Shoals Items. Mr. W. A.

Geer, of the Eureka neigh? borhood, has been very ill for the past four weeks of typhoid fever, but is now ou his road to recovery, which we hope will be speedily effected. The coming election, and the Indian Doctor, together, furnish a never-failing theme for conversation, the latter of which, we are surprised and shocked to find so many of our good men believing in. But we think if they will pay him a visit and investigate the matter, they will be satisfied not to repeat tbe visit. It was our pleasure, on tbe 28th of July, to attend the annual pic nie at Simpson's lake, given by onr clever young lady friends. Misses Mary and Salbe Mattison.

There were only twenty of us, just enough to make it pleasant for every one. We spent tbe day boat-riding, eating and 'in pleasant conversation, the most enjoy? able feature being tbe rare music fur? nished by tbe Miller Cousin's, which, we think was fullly appreciated by every one. The little Sunday School at High Shoals arranged to have a pic nie at the beautiful and hospitable little town of Williamston on Thursday, August 2, which, we think, was one of the most pleasant affairs that we ever attended. We regret very much that we haven't time nor space to give you every detail of the pic nie, but will endeavor to give you a rough account of it. We met at the residence of Mr.

R. Q. Anderson, about fifty in number, ar? rangements having been made to ride in wagons, not forgetting to provide a wagon to haul the ice, watermelons and well filled baskets, whloh tbe good ladies had taken much pains in preparing. Every one being comfortably seated, about six o'clock we started. We stopped at the residence of Col.

L. E. Campbell, where? upon the Colonel came out armed with a jug of the best cider we ever tasted, after which tbe Colonel and those of his family who were at home, accompanied us to Williamston, at which place we arrived about ten o'clock. After having our stock comfortably attended to, we repaired to that beautiful haven of Spring place Mayor T. C.

Martin bad kindly granted us the use of for the day. We must extend our thanks to Mayor Martin for that, and the many other kindnesses shown us through the day. We are sorry that oirsumstances prevented bis being with us. Owing to the thoughtfulness of Mrs. J.

R. Ander? son, it was our pleasure to meet a few of Williams ton's most popular young ladies. Among them were the charming Misses Sal lie and Ella Donald and Miss Beul ah Austin, who added much to the pleasure of the day. Several of our young men left their hearts in Williamston, includ? ing our modest young Superintendent. We have no doubt, if the girls will stand up to the rack, tbis occasion will prove to be tbe cause of several matches in that vicinity.

Our motto is, "let the good work go on." The morniqg was spent in delightful swinging, drinking lemonade, milk shakes, omitting to spike it with brandy, mineral water and romping over the grounds in general, after wbioh, about one o'clock, we repaired to the sum? mer house, where we found a sumptuous repast beautifully arranged, and after? wards served under tbe supervision of Mrs. J. N. Williams, Miss Lizzie Ander? son and Mrs. John Dobbins, who are noted for their wonderful tact at arrang? ing and serving dinners.

All being com fortably seated, Col. L. E. Campbell was requested to invoke God's blessing, which he did in a very appropriate man? ner. We then set to work appeasing our appetites, which were whetted by the long ride.

It is our opinion that every one went away perfectly satisfied with the dinner. Tbe writer can speak for himself, being seated and waited upon by a very fascinating young lady. Some of our young men were told if they.would eat a hundred chicken gizzards they would be enabled to marry any girl they wanted, so it is reported that our honorable Su? perintendent made a brilliant beginning, he ate the gizzards of eleven chickens. We wish him grand success. After din? ner tbe crowd scattered themselves into pleasant little groups throughout the park, enjoying themselves in their sev? eral different ways until about five o'clock, when we reluctantly bid adieu to Williamston, starting homeward, where we arrived about ten o'clock very tired; but happy with tbe memory of the pleas? ant occasion, which we do not think any one of us will ever forget.

W. Bear Creek Items. As we have never seen any items from this section, we send you a few. The health of this community is very good. We hear of only one case of sick? Mamie Robinson is very low with fever, bat we hope she will soon be up again, as she is a general favorite in tbis community.

Crops are looking better since the last rain, though they are not as good as in other sections. The pic nie at Clinkscales' Mill was, as usual, a grand success. Added to that were some able speeches from nearly all of tbe candidates. Tbey are all nice men, and it is a pity that some of them will get left on the JOth. Oh, that there were more offices for the boys.

Mr. Thomas Pruitt brought tbe remains of his brother, William, from Yazoo, on last Sunday. We hope he will remain with us, for Tom is a good boy. The members of Mt. Bethel Church are having the Church painted, which adds greatly to its appearance.

We were at Mr. James A. Drake's a few days since, and have never seen sudh a display of fruit, especially grapes. It would make an Editor sick to be there one hour, with Mrs. and the Misses Drake to encourage him to eat grapes and drink cider.

Revivals are being held at several of the Churches, and much good is being done. Capt. J. A. Cowan has some very fine rice growing.

We wish more was being planted by our farmers. Tbail. Denver Items. Since farmers are pretty well through with laying by their crops, their socia? bility begins to assert itself. The after? noon of last Thursday was spent very pleasantly by those present at Mr.

S. L. Eskew's, with musio and eating water? melons. Mr. Richard Lewis, Oconee's courteous and efficient Probate Judge, and Mr.

Charlie Reid, from Walhalla, regaled the crowd with some fine music on violins; while Miss Mattie Eskew played an accompaniment on the organ. The watermelons, as well as the music, Were excellent, and greatly enjoyed by all present. On Friday quite a crowd of children, chaperoned by their parents and friends, had a pic meat Jolley's spring, which seemed to be enjoyed by all present. Some of the "old folks" were about as big children as any. The pic nio announced last week to be at Jol ley's spring Saturday, 4 th was quite a pleasant one.

Early Saturday morning the crowd began coming in on horseback, in buggies, in carriages and walking, and by noon a large assemblage were present. Shortly afterwards dinner was announced, and hungry humanity feasted, to its fill on tbe choicest viands. In the afternoon the older, people gather? ed in groups and talked of the days of "Auld Lang while the young folks "paired off," as Bill Arp would say, and spent the time talking "soft talk," and the still younger ones paddled in tbe branch and enjoyed themselves as only children can. A striking case of absent-mindedness came to light recently. A young gentle? man and his best girl were walking home from a neighbors house one Sunday afternoon, when a heavy shower of rain came up, and they both got wet.

It is claimed that this yonng man had a good umbrella with him, but forgot to use it. Jay. Items. Last Saturday was the day for the political meeting at this place, and as it was the last opportunity the candidates had to meet with the people before the Srimary, they were out in full force. -Mr.

H. McCalla was master of ceremonies, and, after a short address, introduced Col. M. F. Ansel.

As this was the first oppor? tunity Mr. Ansel had to address this peo? ple, they listened to him with muoh in? terest, the greater part of bis speech being devoted to the necessity of sending com Etent men to the Legislature. Gen. H. Bonbam was next introduced, and de? livered an able speech, in which he clearly demonstrated tbe necessity of keeping up the malitia organizations of the State.

Messrs. C. P. Hawthorne, W. G.

Miller and W. C. Benet followed, making good and suitable addresses. Mr. Benet was inter? rupted several times by anxious inquir? ers, who questioned him in regard to the Clemson bequest, prohibition, etc.

After he had answered these questions to the satisfaction of tbe crowd, many of whom cheered him, dinner was then announced, and an hour or two was spent in refresh? ing tbe inner man. After dinner Gen. R. R. Hempbill, E.

G. Graydon, J. N. King, W. P.

Calboun and J. A. Harmon deliv? ered appropriate addresses. The crowd was very muoh disappointed at the ab? sence of the Governor and other promi? nent men who were expected, but owing to the meeting in Charleston, which they were appointed by the State Committee to address, it was impossible for them to reach here. The many friends of Col.

W. C. McGow an regretted his absence from the political meeting Saturday. The Colonel will get a solid vote here. Tbe ladies of tbe Methodist and Presby? terian churches both sold refreshments to the crowd last Saturday, and both realized handsome profits, the Methodist taking iu $140, and the Presbyterians $78.

Mr. S. C. Baker, of Anderson, is now on a visit to his old home here. He will re? turn Thursday.

A large crowd from tbe Fork and Ridge came up Friday night to give Col. W. C. McGowan a big serenade, Their enthusi? asm was considerably dampened when they found he had not arrived. How? ever, they favored the crowd with some good music, and then called for speeches from Capt.

J. W. Perrin and C. A. C.

Waller, who responded in short addresses. The crowd was then invited in and hand? somely treated by. Mr. J. M.

Baker. Tbe large crowd that attended tbe meet? ing Saturday was very orderly; no dis? turbance that we have beaid of. The singing ccbool that has been going on at tbe Ridge Church for the last two weeks, closed last Friday. It was the occasion of muoh social enjoyment. Miss Mary DuPree, of Abbeville, and Miss Maggie Latimer, of Calhoun's mill, are visiting relatives hero.

Mr. and Mrs. John ft. Donnald left last Monday for where they have gone to attend the oampmeeting. Messrs.

Thomas Cot bran and Lewis R. Parker, of Abbeville, spent Sunday in this place. While bore were tbe guests of I Mr. J. M.

6,1888. Mr. Editor: The brief reply of Mr. R. W.

Todd, published in the Anderson Journal of the 3rd in which Mr. Todd, in the face of the public, reiterates the charge that I had attempted to perpe? trate a fraud, and in which be, also, ad? mits that he has given the report cur? rency, renders it necessary that I seek vindication elsewhere, or that I ask exon? eration at the hands of others than Mr. Todd. Hence, I subjoin hereunto certifi? cates irom the School Trustees of this Township, and though I will not im? pugn Mr. Toad's motives myself, I sub? mit the whole matter for public investi? gation, and invite the closest scrutiny of the same: Townville, S.

Aug. 3rd, 1888. I do hereby certify to whom it may concern that, as a matter of convenience, it has been the custom for several years past for the Trustees of this Township to sign each others' names to teachers' pay certificates, and that in the case In ques? tion between Mr. Boleman and Mr. Todd, that one Trnstee bad been authorized to affix another's signature, and had simply done so.

N. 0. Farmer, Trustee. I do hereby certify that I instructed W. F.

M. Faut, E3q.t the Clerk of the Board'School Trustees, to attach my name to any teachers' pay certificate in my absence, alter be bad investigated the report accompanying the same; that I did authorize Mr. Fant to affix my signa? ture to the pay certificate in question between Mr. Boleman and Mr. Todd; that if the signature was not genuine, or if there was anything improper or illegal in the transaction, I exonerate Mr.

Bole? man, and take the whole responsibility upon myself. H. R. Vandiver, Trustee. I do hereby certify to whom it may concern, that it has been a custom with the School Trustees of this Township to attach each other's signatures to teachero' pay certificates.

The practice has pre? vailed for many years, and has been sanctioned by all the School Commis? sioners, including Mr. Todd himself up to the time that Mr. Boleman's certificate was called in question. I certify that I did affix to the certificate H. B.

Van di? ver's signature, which Mr. Todd now grenounces not genuine, and that Mr. oleman was in no way responsible for it, as it was attached without his knowledge or consent. I also certify that I have no knowledge of the certificate in question being returned for correction as Mr. Todd states in last week's Journal, but it was my understanding that Mr.

Todd prompt? ly approved the claim, and that the money was returned to Mr. Boleman on the same day by W. S. Woolbright, Esq. W.

F. M. Fant, Clerk Board Trustees." In conclusion, allow me to state that it was not that I was fearful that the slan? der would hurt me here, but that it might do me injury where I was unknown, that I condescended to notice it at all, and hereafter Mr. Todd is at perfect liberty to circulate the report as far as he may see proper, or to any extent that he may think it will serve his purposes so to do.
