Eitrnts from Christian Neighbor Auaelatc Editor. I feel i.t.'to be my duty to decline being Associate Editor of the Messenger of Peace after the close of this year, and I make the announcement now, no as to give the "Peace Association" time to look up an editor in my place. I am not losing my interest in the blessed cause of Peace. My inter. est is so deep that it is painful to me, but I have not that natural ability and depth and breadth of knowledge that a man should have to fill worthily the important place that I have held for several yeare. The Friends have many able and good men, and I hope that one of them will take my place next year. I am willing to be a common contributor to the Messenger as long as my Heavenly Father shall continue my life, and give my power to use my pen, but I do not want to hold the important post of an editor. It is a place of too much responsibility for me, when Arbitration has become so great a question in the view of mankind. John Hemmenway. Not having seen this announcement before writing our notice last week of the purpose of Brother Hemmenway to decline being Associate Editor, we can now only add that, in view of what our dear brother says that he feels It his duty to|do as he purposes, that he is not losing his interest in the blessed cause of Peace and that he is willing to be a common contributor to the Mkss&nger of Peace?we reluctantly submit. We hope that Brothers Hill and Hemmenway will excuse our freedom of speech. We claim to have audio hold a special interest in the Messenger, in Bro. Hill and Bro. Hemmenway. We love and admire John Hemmenway because of the manifestation of the life of Jesus in his devotion' to the cause of peace. He says : "My interest [in the cause of peace] is so deep that it is painful to me." This no one doubts. uonarohlo servant of UfkOJ IUKJ V vuva MW.V the Prince of Peace have great . peace to' the end of his labor0U8 and useful life. His many able alid truly Christian communications to the Neighbor have done itiuch good to the editor and its readers?and how much good to the blesed cause of peace, God only knows. Live on, dear brother, write and work on, pray on yntil the end ?peace. A Warning. In the Press and Banner Hon. F. A.

Hie laws which govern in morals are as invariable in results as those which bbt&ln in matter. There, is as much danger to moral purity in ungodly, sinful and scornful associations as there is danger to physical well being in malarious atmosphere or in contact with the measles, the smallpox or the yellow fever. "Evil communications corrupt good manners" even as breathing miasma vitiates good health. If people were as much rtf arml riiaAacPfl aq t.hev Are Of physical sicknesses what a good world there would be. ? ? In Pennsylvania August 21 a flood devastated a large section of country. Railroads were inundated, land slides blocked them, bridges were washed away, houses flooded, store goods dam. ;; aged, teliegraph lines broken. In every direction destruction showed its work, and here and there death claimed its victims. The winds in parts of Maryland was cyclonic. New England suffered also, much damage being reported from Boston. A Great Man Gone. A dispatch from London, August 21, announces the death of Henry Richard, member of Parliament, and well known throughout the civilized world as an advocate of arbitration instead of war for the settlement of disputes between nations or governments. The death of such a man is a calamity extending in its influences beyond the limits of a single nation. Rev. W. Smith Martin has as editor ceased his connection with tbe Lowndesville Advertiser. A high and independent moral tone has characterized the editorials of Mr. Martin during his occupaucy of the tripod. It is hoped tbat the endeavor of Mr. Ba ker "to keep up the'moral standard" will be crowned with continued success. "With "Compliments Mrs. J. W. Humbert, Lyons. S. C., comes the Tenth Annual Report of the Woman's Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, May, 1888. Total number adult members, 33,686; total number juvenile members, 23,097, Collected 1887-1888, $69,729.65; total collected since organization, $355,345.77. Appropriations for 1888-1889, $54,937.00. A fire at Durham, N. C., Sunday night, August 19, destroyed twelve houses including a large tobacco pack house containing 300,000 pounds of leaf tobacco. L?ss about $40,000, onethird insurance. Great crowds attended the recent Farmers' Encampment at Spartanburg. Dr. A. Coke Smith is gradually regaining wonted health after a serious sickness of some weeks. The Columbia Annual Conference Convened at Pendleton, Oregon, Aug. 2, 1888. All the members except three were present. Bishop Chas. B. Galloway opened the Conference and delivered a brief address. The Conference is held in the house of worship belonging to the Methodist Episcopal Church. The pastor of this Church, Rev. J. C. Kirkman, has treated us with marked kindness. Two of us are guests at his house. He and his most excellent Christian wife make us feel very much at home and we are frequently reminded how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together. Brother Kirkman was introduced to the conference and asked to take a seat and feel at home in his own house.?'Pacific Methodist. i It has lately come to light that thousands of immigrants are being sent to this country from Italy and other part of Southern Europe under contract, by which ignorant persons are deluded and a host of comparatively worthless I people thrown upon our shores as pauper laborers: Both the immigrant and our people are thus being imposed upon by a set of unprincipled sharpers. Congress is at last engaged in investigating the matter which ought to have been attended to years ago. We are |becoming liberal to our ruin. ' "Seek the good of other men," says Lord Bacon, "but be not in bondage to their fancies." Sometimes it is a positive injury to another to respect his prejudice. But, if you must cross them, do so as gently as possible. He who has learned how to combine gentleness and firmness, has mastered one of the greatnest lessons of life. He has learned how to govern and to read. There can be no good without a strong will. A weak will means inconstancy ; it means it even in good, attempted and reliquished, which is always a terrible thing, because it betrays some one who relied upon it. A new postoffice has been established in Richland County, on the Wilmington, Columbia and Augusta Bailroad, nine miles from Columbia. Its name is Lykesland.
