It is thought to be not much over half as large as It was twenty years ago. This result is attributed to the fact that so much of Mie low lauds lying aioi>g its course have been cleared.

There is a disposition ! encourage rapid handling of the crop. J The remains of Mr. John Foster were Inl I red In the family burying ground on the pi | tat ion of W. A. Arnold, followed by numb of bereaved relatives and sorrow-stricfc I friends to their qufet resting place. I Mr. Fletcher Anderson, telegraph operat | will so?n enter upon the duties of dej i agent aiso, superceunuj Mr. wmium auu son. who (or several years, has beta a in j faithful and acceptable agent at this plu Another step toward retrenchment inaugu ted by the present Incumbent. Mr. Frank Arnold last week killed on 1 placi an owl of prodigious size, measuri four feet between tips of the wings. One the aboriginal stock that make the wo< echo with their dismal notes. Close scrutiny by one of the most carei and experienced farmers in this sectlion the county, verifies the fact that the cott crop is in a large measure, a failure. All I bolls on a large proportion of the weed Is re>idy open. The discretion of holding soirees in unke untenanted places, with no matronly eyes Judgment to becomesponsorsto proprietva decorum. Is seriously questioned by many < and settled heads In society. Altera washing rain, .Mr. F. A. Arnold < served under it large oak tree in an lsolal part of his farm, what appeared to be fri meats of a skeleton. This lead to an I live.* cation. In which was discovered the ont skeleton of a human being. Their treim dous sizejand the huge outlines of the gra' showed tlieiu to be the bones of an Individt of colossal proportions. The skull and ari were particularly of extraordinary size a the prominent, firmly set seeth were on slightly decayed. As there is not even a tr ditlonal knowledge of thespot's ever havi been used as a burying ground In mode times, Mr. Arnold thinks it was the remal of an bboriglnee, and that perhaps scores others may lie in these rude catacombs. Mr. Nichols, recently salesman with lienr Iteynolds A Co, has associated with Dr. Lev in the grocery and provision business. >: Nichols possesses tirm business qualities, a will be a {valuable addition to that alrea strong house. The enclosure around the cemetery In t rear of the Methodist church Is very much need of repairs. A firm in the business part of town wou Involve the destruction of nearly every bui house. Such a thing is not unlikely to occ at any time. Does it reflect complimcntarlly on the I tcgiity of a business man to say that he w be all right if he can collect fifty per cent outstanding cialius? Does it not demr strate beyond daubt that farmers are payi u ruinous rate of interest that must inevi bty crush them beyond recovery? About one hundred bales of new cotton < changed hands heie last week. ltev. .1. s. Jordan occupied the Daptlst pi pit Sunday night. Sews From Ninety Six. [From our own Correspondent.] Ninkty Six, S.

Nashville Christian Advocate. BY REQUEST. _ | An Interesting case of Anabaptism lately ' occurred In Kentucky! The parties are etnl ! nent In the Baptist Church, and the facts ant [ logical results nave been strongly presentei by a Baptist. It appears that many years ago Brothc: ! Weaver was converted among the Methodist ' and was Immersed by a Methodist minister He left the Methodist and Joined the Baptls Church, and for thirty years has been a successful minister; become a D. I)., and Is nnv ; pastor of the Chestnut-street Baptist Churcl ; i in Louisville. ' Rev. J. Lansing Burrows, D. D.?in the West ern Jtecordcr? Baptist organ?has a communi [ cation which may interest our readers. \V< I ijuotc: I Allow me a brief spacc In your columns fo: , a few comments concerning the extraordi l nary performance in Chestnut-street Bnptls ci.iiri'h on the ."ith of .In I v. so privately actec and so publicly divulged?the immersion o I the Rev. Dr. W eiivcr by the Rev. Dr. Boyce. Ouc reason given by Dr. Weaver for seekinj baptism at this late day of his life Is, that h< has bccome convinced t liut his former baptisn was "irregular." Dr. Weaver was either baptized or unbap ! tized. If lie was baptized, then all admit thai the ordinance ought not to have been repeat ed. If unbaptlzed, then he lias never bcei: lawfully a member of a Baptist Church ; foi Baptist Churches cannot lawfully receive un baptized Christians Into membership. Car , Dr. Weaver he-admitted now into member ; ship with the Chestnut-streetChurch withou ; personal application, relation of experience ; and the vote of the Church? By what titIt ; does he hold membership now ? ; Again: If Dr. Weaver wasunbaptized, thei ' lie was never ordained to theChrisilan mini* try. Bapt ists do not ordain unbaptlzed men ; consequently his ordination was a nullity. ; Our "Jiigh-church" leaders Insist that un I baptized ministers coming into our Coinmu , nion sliall be reordaineii. Is this case an ex ceptlon? and if so, why? Shall a council b . called to examine and ordain Dr. Weave ' pastor of the Chestnut-street Church ? Again : It is held that unbantized minister can have no authority for administering th Lord's Supper. Have the members of Chest nut-street Church never partaken of this mc mortal ordinance since Dr. Weaver has bcei their pastor? From the stand-point occupied by thes brethren, ami those who believe with them this private performance was not a valid hap tism. Dr. Boyce had no "Church-authority . to administer, and Dr. Weaver had m ' "Church-authority" to receive such a baptism ; Neither ihe Broadway Church, of which Di Boyce is a member, nor the Chestnut-strce Church, of which Dr. Weaver Is a member were consulted. No Church authorized noi consented to it. From the point of view taken by anll-"Allei ! Imrncrsionist." Dr. Boyce Is himself an un I hi.ntlzed administrator of baptism. If Di ! Weaver w?s unbautized, so Is Dr. Boyce un ! baptized. If ?? immersed administrator i I essential to the validity of baptism, thei ij none of us have been baptized, and there ii !j no valid baptism in Christian Churches. Dr ! I Weaver's first un baptized administrator \va ! i only one remove back. Dr. Boyce's may bi ! j five, perhaps ten, removes back. Can tha ! make any diU'crence as to validity ? If thi ! first in the series was unbaptiz.'-d, must the; ! not all have been unbaptlzed ? At what poin I was the Invalidity made valid? How man; !| nothings does It require to make up some thing? 1 r Dr. Boyce ha<l not had an unbro 1 ken line of ordained and Church-authorizes linhiersers back to the days of Christ and hi apostles, then he is, on his owfi grounds, ai unbaptlzed minister: for neither he nor an; other intelligent student ol ecclesiastical his tory will veuture the affirmation that an un broken succession of orthodox immerserscai be tniced to apostolic times. And iu tills lln of succession Whatever link you strike, Tenth or ten-thousandth, breaks the chali alike. If Dr. Weaver was unbaptlzed, so is Di . Boyce unbaptlzed,and consequently Dr. Wea . ver has not received his baptism yet. Hi must look again, and look further, lor an au thorized immerser. i Be it remembered, Dr. Boyce Is President o : the Baptist Theological .Seminary, located li ' Louisville, formerly In Greenville, s. C. Dr Burrows, a distinguished light, formerly o Klehmond, Va., now or Louisville, and pasto j of the principal Baptist Church there, presses the consequences of these ' High-church' views u step or two further. He says : If Dr. Weaver's baptism was invalid, thei all the converts he has immersed arc unbap tized. When Dr. Weaver instructsandexhor i all who have received baptism at his hand to prepare themselves for relmmersion. i will be un interesting scene, to avoid seeluf | which I would travel a thousand miles in i contrary direction, If It was necessary \ But it is certainly as much their duty un< I irk Kt* vol vri mprK<*ri RS H i>? Ills. , VV '/V Dr. Weaver has baptized some wlioare no\ ministers of the gospel. Must they all, too b reimmersed, and then rebaptlze all their con verts? If not, why not? Nothing deduclble from ecclesiastical hlstc ry Is more certain than it we receive Immer slon in an unbroken line of succession l'ron apostolic days, it lias been "alien Immersion 1 tnrough the corrupt Itoman Catholic orGreel Churches, or through Iieretical bodies tha [ were not evangelical or true gospel Churches I And when some of our "logical" as contradh I tingulshed from "scriptural," polemics son tend that an Immersion uuministered by i Baptist liyoocrite or impostor Is to ;be prefei 1 reu to an Immersion by a godly Methodist n I Episcopalian, who gives clear evidence tlia 1 he is culled of God to preach the gospel, ther I Is such u manifest elevation of the rltun t above the spiritual?of the formal above the es 1 sentlal?as should alarm our Baptist peopli and cull forth most ^earnest protest agalus such dogmas. f "With a sad heart and burdened conscience [ Dr. Burrows adds, In conclusion : 1 I do, in the honesty of a slnccre soul,soun this alarm and enter this protest. Somo c } our ministers are leading our churches int J the arid, flowerless, and fruitless deserts t J Hlgh-churchlsm, sinning, as I mournfully b( J lleve, against charity, and Christ, and hi } Church.

OBITUARY. ?- / DIED, August 29. 18711, at the residence of ti erson.John Gaulden, Esq., near Nl.iety-Six, ? ibbeviilc county, S. C., Mrs. Frances-Gaulen, aged, about one hundred years. li Her maiden name was Frances Johnson, nd she was born in Lunenburg county, Va. ler father attracted by the kindly soil and nore genial climate of South Carolina, left Mrglnia when she was quite small and set- ? led in Edgotleld county, where she resided | intll sometime after her marriage to Mr. Jas. I rauklcn, when she came with him to Abbeille county where she spent the last lifty cars of her life. Eudowed with a fine constitution and with rigorous health, she was oneof those prudent nuustrious and economical housewives who j ook well to the ways of their households, ieven children were given to her keeping, woof whom surviveher. Hers was an even t111 life, beginning as li did amid the stirring i cen'es of the lUsvoluteon, when the warfare | gainst the British was one with that against ^ he untamed wilderness, and the lawlessness j if the tlmos, she lived to sec the Colonies free, ( he wilderness subdued, and America the ? and of freemen. Spared so far beyond the allotted age of < nan, she stood the solitary representative of j ler generation in me community in wnicn he lived. Panning through the conlllct of Hates and tho wreck of fortunes, slie lived to >e almost the personification of the poet's eventh ngo of man, but through the mercy of hat benipn Providence who led her "e'en lown to old a?e," sho was surrounded to the ast by those who with gentle hands tenderly n i n i stered to h er wa n t?. Hers was unlike tho death of yonth, when he Irame is racked by the tierce struggle bewcen Life and Death, but like a flower Blows'fading or an exhausted light growing dim* ner and dimmer. LI fe receded and Death advanced so gently, so Imperceptibly it was like i peaceful falling asleep. Site was longn conilstent member of this Methodist church, and lied In thefu 11 assurance of faith in a pardonngSavior. Undemonstrative in words, and n the formalities of religion, her life of inegrity, honesty and benevolence, was the exiression nf her faith. Her precepts uttered, icr example given, her lnilueuce exerted, L lor work ended, she was called to her re- vurd. XjrEdgrJlr.ld Advcrliacr please copy. -AND- .
