Religious Journals vs. Hie F.iCuiar
Press.
It spciiis la us that a lariro p^r rent. <>'
ihc fifth rat*1 t>r<\i<*hers an i many of i!>< j
?;o-called religions newspapers of thr j
present time arc deeply impressed with
\hc idea that it is (heir bourdon duty t?? [
spend much of their time in tlic aimsc o<
tho secul ar press. Whether this .spirit
rmanates from their consciousness ??f the
Miporiority of tin secular press, or
whether ii comes from Innate jealousy <>i
the growing power and influence of tinfccular
press we are uuahSe to say. ]5ut i
If the assertions made by an artivie
which appears eUewhorc n these eoland
credited to the Twx f7tr:'.stimi
Ath'ocufc, be tine the inferiority of I
t!ie pulpit and tho weakness of the reli- j
jjious press is proved beyond the shadow !
>f a doubt. We nre not readv, however, j
to believe that the former days were bet- j
tor than these, and we arc not willing; t< |
entertain the idea that tho influence oil
the secular press is for evil. That 1 here
-are exceptional eases where the influence
of some particular publication may be for |
t?vil we are willing to admit, bat we are.
no mi re willinjr to admit that the secular j
press of the country should be charged
with unpardonable wickedness, than that [
we are to consent to charge the pulpit |
with being tilled with libi rtitn*, because;
>>? t'if> Tmj5?"Tes^io!is of a wicked brother
hero ami there. Preachers, .is well as tho ;
religious newspapers must cease lo make I
unjust war <m the secular press if thev I
would themselves command the respect j
of tho public, and if they would be in- j
Htrumcntal in doing tin? largest amount i
of good, thev should win the sympathy
and endorsement of the secular press.
As a matter of fust, in no way can a min
ister of the gospel wield as great an inJlu-'
ciivO as through the secular press. The j
secular press has tho ear of ail classes, ol'
all sorts, and of all conditions of men,'
and as another matter of fact, the secular:
press does more.to disseminate gospel j
ruths than all other agencies combine*.
*Tf h comparison of the advertising col- j
minis of the newspapers which are so!
ready to villify the secular press arc ex-j
endued they will be found in many in-;
fdFiicesto contain the advertisements ofi
:ir,strums and ether cheats which could '
r.ot gain a place in some of the very news- j
papers which those so-called religious
newspapers would l?riz)g into contempt, t
For our own part, we fail to sen where- j
in t'le'editorial conduct or the business j
management of tho religious press is one:
M l,ii lii.rl.or m- mom hnnoi-aMf !!i-i!i that'
of the secular pres*. Therejaro different!
degrees of worth in the various religious j
newspapers, a< there are shades of ditlerenee
in the several secular publications,
?.nd this continued exhibition of spite or
jealousy on tho part of our religious i
brethren, leads u* to doubt the necessity j
. 'or the publication of their so-called rcli-J
giotis newspapers. Their efforts to de-J
stro}* tlio reputation of the secular press,
and their appeals to the ignorances and i
rojudifes of their blind followers, ad-1
vnnce neither the interests of t!.o II deemer's
kingdom, nor do they promote!
public morals. The influence of such:
journals seems to be to dwarf the minds
of their follower*, while they would j
plant in their hearts tho seeds of bitte:-.
licss and hato. j

Wasted Regrets.
A rumor pained curroncy yesterday in
Abbeville that a mile or two of the tresselimr
at the Savannah River bridge on !
the A. it K. K. U. had been washed away
and many were tho regrets expressed.
and nearly everybody seemed to think
the event a very bad one for the road in
its present condition. It is believed .that
no train came t<> Greenwood on Monday,
but as yesterday's A uf/::stu Chronicle ami:
Con.ititulioiKtli-s! came to hand last night, I
we presume the running of the trains
have been resumed, even if they were'
stopped for a day. Tuesday's Cfivoniclc
says:
Tho bridge at Hawk's Gully, ovpr the
' ? Augusta and Knoxville llaiiroad, lias;
been pronounced perfectly safe and trains
. will pass over as usual to-day.
Gentlemen, Via Thank Yor.
t i
We feel very grateful to our brethren
of the press for the very kindly manner,
in which the /Yess nn/l Banner has been
mentioned in connection with the disso-1
lution of tho recent editorial copartnership.
Nothing is more gratifying than to
have the approval and good-will of our
brethren of the press, who have always;

wlil he brief, and It Is subject of r< f{ret that |
the dismal weather should leader Charleston,!
which Is usually so bright and fair at this season,
sadly utjatirac'ive. It is no consolation 1
to seg'/est lital a season of I'.ngllsh wviSlier !
has been specially provide I so as to make the 1
di-iinguished visitors feel at home here. A I
period of what Is known Iii Ktiglarid as '
Queen's weather"' would ho fur more agreta- I
hi'*, and give our visitors a lust Idea of what- '
Chariest"!) Usually i-. There is a rift in the
clouds, and to-day may prove as hnliny and
clear as the most fastidious ran desire.
Nowhere In the I'nlted Slates Is there more
cordial admiration of Oueen Victoria than
exists in chai'eston. If is n?? new fashion
adoptcit for the present time, bin is a settled
and deep-rooted |??<-Iiiitr, I ut n <>f knowledge
and appreciation of the < >uecn's exulted qualities

vice. Lord Lome has avoided the shoals and ,
quicksands of party politics in Canada, ami
has the sntisiaction of knowing that the I to- .
minion w.'fi never more loyal than at tins j

make Lord Lome the Viceroy of the Indian
empire when his term of .service at Ottawa J
shall have expired.
The visit, of the 1'rlnccss Louise and Lord .
Lome being entirely unofficial in character,
theie will be little opporiunity. it is leurod. lo :
display the hospitality, hoth puhlle and private,
for which Charleston is famous. It is
certain, how ever, that every attentiofi that:
they will consent to accept will be* bestowed

why I say this, I shiuM ho content; the lest i
I c,*in do Is lo speak of l!ie Canal direct. This j
Canal is miles long, I "?'? feet wide and KM
toot deep, and the greater purl of It through |
!iio-'c and solid ?run!!e rock. A cemented!
dam of roek and cemcislo<l rook sides to iliel
Canal to hold its water lor n'lout l.VJ yards t:t
one plaee. hostile* shorter spaces at. other j
place*. .My estiiiMteof cost is predicted npon
the above, aad lis present management as
well, which I eail common sense, an 1 which I;
believe is hccr.iiiiii<f among the law makers oil i
certain things t!ie ino*t uncommon of ail
!seii!?e. Von say considerable money wasi
spent on Ibis Canal tielore and sinee I he war. |
1 know of no money spent since the war, ex- j
ecpt the surveys you speak of. Hi" appropria- i
lion of .*10,(Mi.iio and a hundred and twenty i
hands, last year, whielt in labor, board, ami j
money appropt iated, etc., co-t the State a'jont j
S'A'iiin.Mi.
The Canal built before the wju\ was done
with a view toeommere:.', and was ncded at.1
; use time; this was before the days of rail-j
roads, and the thousands of lit I le pole boats
on the river passed through the (.'anal,sale)
from the rapids of the river, lor which they I
paid the Slate a reasonable toll as lixed by!
law. This anti-warCanal is many miles long,:
and cost tiie State less money than the;
amount already expended on the new Canal, j
and in my judgment paid more money by far j
than the present undertaking can or will ever j
? ???% 1 !n t Mil Itii.ituicu 111 i it rlmilifv
that factories will tie built <m this Canal when J
linished, and yet it is certain that the State!
has not yet been aide to learn from who,or!
! from what quarter tin capital is Income. To i
smv it will come is to cxcrclse tiie greatest
| fniih, ami yet. no business man will pronouiiee
it savins; faith.
Who K it. that will utilize this power when
completed ? From what quarter lias capitalists
sought to invest money in this Canal?
Who are they, and where are they, and what
amount do they oti'er? Under the Iiiwk of
this stale, factories are exempted from taxation
for ten years.and if this Canal was completed
to-day capitalists would not only re<iuire
exemption fiom taxation for ten years
tin the factory, hut tho free useof the water as
well. Then the lime r< quired to complete |
t.lie Canal, the time required to huild factories, |
and the lime of exemption from taxation,
will span over the life of any man in tho
State. Revenues to the stale from this Canal
In this generation is out of the question.
from such appropriations, the impoverished
condition of our people, demand that llicy

perhaps, more advertisements than it
