Illness of aa Old Citizen. We regret very much to learn that our old and honored fellow citizen, Mr. Elbert DeVore, of Kirksey's is lying ill. If we understand aright he has been prostrated by a stroke of paralysis. Within the lasi two or three days, however, we have not been able to hear how he i.s. The Moit Princely Grocery Establish ment in the South. We allude to that of P. W. Wagener Je Co-, of Charleston, from whom we have a new business card this week. For the said card, we beg special and universal at tention. In fad. we exhort our people to begin at once to become familiar with the great mercantile houses of the City by the Sea. For t he railroad is certainly coming, and these our bouses of the future. Bear that in mind. And this Aery house, F W. Wagener ? Co., has already helped the said Road very liberally. With the prospect before us, it is a source of great pleasure to us to begin to introduce the jgreat Charleston mercantile concerns to <he people of Edgefield. The White Sulpher.

The Rev. H. A. Whitman. And speaking of Mr. Fant, we are r minded of another young Baptist, clergj man within our borders, who is perhaj the most, accomplished scholar in Edg< field County. We allude to the Rev. I A. Whitman, of Georgia, we believe, tt principal of the Curryton High Schoo and the pastor of Sweetwater and Hardy' Mr. Whitman is a full graduate of th Southern Baptist Theological Seminar and preached for five years in Washingtoi Ga., before coming among us. He he been at Corryton for one year, and is no< spending his summer vacation among th mountains. Library and Reading Room. The article from "Pro Bono Publico, on our first page, is a most admirable om and we hope the .young men of our tow will speedily heed its suggestions in practical way. To prove our own dee interest in this matter-we offer tw beautiful rooms in the ADVERTISER build ing for this purpose. These two room: one very large, the other somewha smaller, open into each other, and ar most admirably adapted for a Library an Reading Room. Beautiful rooms, withou cost, make an important step in the be ginning. The Crack of the Rifle. On Thursday last, the Edgefield Rifles Capt. R. S. Anderson, marched in fin style to their shooting ground in th Beaver Dam meadow, and there shot lb the white plume. The distance was ou hundred yards, and the number of mund; three. The three best marksmen prove< to be W. L. Dunovant, who made 33 ou of a possible 30; W. S. Covar, who madi 32i; and Capt. Anderson, who made 20 The white plume is therefore wombat pre sent, as it generally is, by Mr. Willi? Dunovant. After the shooting, the boyi and a few friends sat down to a line bar becue dinner, prepared by Maybin, th? barber; and after d nner they spent some hours in playing base ball. And all in all the gallant Rittes made a very happy day of it. The Hussar Oflirers. At the annual election of officers of the Edgefield flnssars, at Lanham's Spring, on Saturday last, Capt. M. A. Markeri, who has so long led them, positively de clined a re-election, on the ground t hat a pressure of business rendered it impossi ble for him to Jill the place as h-> would desire to do. The newly elected officers are as follows- Captain, H. W. Shaw: 1st Lient., M. R. Tillman: 2nd Lieut., S. R Mays: :?rd Lient., .1. A. Butler; Orderly Sergt., St. .Lilian Bland; 2nd Sergf., J. A. Mays: Srd. .1. <>. Mokier. Uh. W. JL Dobey;f "dh, W. 1'. Addison: Gth, .I.A. Timmerman: 7th, S. \V. Miller; Secretary and Treasurer, W. T. Butler; Color Bearer, John K. Atkins. On the first Saturday in September, the i hissais will tilt for the white plume. A committee was appointed to prepare resolutions of regret at the retirement of Capt. Markeri? and expressive of admiration of his char acter and gratitude for his services. The Rev. J. K. Fant. This gentleman is the pastor of Sister Spnng6, where he preaches on every first Sunday : of Mountain Creek, where he preaches on every second and fourth Sunday: and of Gilgal, where he preaches every third Sunday. We met him for the first tim?, on Sunday last, as Gilgal, and he is a man of whom the Baptists ot' Edgefield-indeed all good peo. pie-may well be proud. Mr. Pant it only thirty years of age, and both in physiognomy and manner reminds one most pleasantly of the Rev. Luther Gwaltney. He is a graduate of Burman University, and we believe, of the South ern Baptist Theological Seminary. He is highly intelligent, very fervent and ex tremely prepossessing in address. He married Miss Beaufort De Yore, a daugh ter of Mr. Elbert l?e Vore, and at present lives with that gentleman, near Kirksey's. Mr. Pant is an Anderson man. The Hughe* Picnic. 11 came to pass on friday last-in a lovely grove one mile this side ol' Mrs. Hugues's. And it was the most delightful altair we ever attended since we were born, iterally and truly, lt was just large enough to be pleasant in every respect. lt was beautifully homogeneous and har monious. Everything titted in as if dove tailed by a master hand. And there were the four lovely and popular Misses Hates, of Batesburg-daughters ol'Captain Jack Kates. And there were the four lovely anil popular .Misr.es Nicholson, ot' the Ridge, daughter-: of John T. Nicholson, Esq. And there was the bright and beau tiful brunette, Miss Beulah Mites. And there was pretty, sprightly and mischiev ous Miss Annie Fleming, fro u Augusta. And there was wise, witty and wicked little Rtbccca Croker, all the way from Spartan burg, come hack t o us where she rightfully belongs. And there was-but we had better not undertake to name the ahnrijiines. And we had better not un dertake further to tell how really delight ful the Hughes picnic was; for the lan guages of all the continents would fad lodo the subject justice. Grandma's] Wedding Supper. Prom the Hughes picnic, a large party of gay and happy young people, ot both sexes, repaired to the beautiful and ever hospitable home of Mrs. Elizabeth Nichol son, who gave them an elegant banquet,and allowed them to make a merry night, nf it. Among this favored and happy throng were two of the village boys two of the very best-a prominent young lawyer and a prominent young merchant. And on Saturday afternoon we meet them bott: in the young merchant's store. And they look red-eyed and drammy. And they lay hold of us, one on either side, and while one says, "Mr. Baco i, just let me tell you about grandma's wedding supper last night,"' the other say?, "Mr. Bacon, just let me tell you what a mag nificent time we had at grandma's last night," and soon, and so on. And we listen most amiably: but we are in r.o wise surprised, for we have ourselves seen many a merry bout and many a wedding supper at "grandma's." But still there i8 one question we would like to ask, and that i- how this honored lady cornes to be the '-'grandma'' of these young men. We know al) the generations of all the parties, but we do not understand this new relationship. Is it that coming events cast their shadows before ? Death ol'Mrs. Randal Eidsou. We regret deeply to hear pf the death of this estimable lady of the Johnston sec tion. She was a daughter of Capt. Jesse Cogbum. On Thursday of last week she gave hirth to twins, a boy and a girl, and on Monday afternoon she died. The in fants survive her, and are iain lo be re markably line children. In the Shadow of a Great Affliction. Our honored friend and fellow citizem Mr. Archie Lewis, of the Rocky Creek section, and his family are sitting in the shadow of a great ailliction. Within one short week two noble boys have been ta" ken from them-two loving and beloved sons-in the pride of youth and strength and in plenitude of probity and popularity. Lake Lewis, aged about twenty-four years' died on Tuesday, the lid instant, and Mark Lewis, aged about twenty-two, died on Friday, the ~*th. Roth were stricken with typhoid pneumonia. Lake was perhaps a* little delicate, but Mark was a very pic ture of youthful vigor and beauty; so ex ceptionally so indeed as to mr.ko it almost impossible to realize his death. Roth were laid to rest, among kindred dust, al, Kooky Creek Church. And not only their im mediate iamily, but all of Rocky C reek and all of Meeting Street, sit in the shad" ow of the deep ailliction caused by their death. Their work on earth, which prom ised so much, has ceased ere it had fairly begun, and their souls are with the God khat gave them. '?'Affliction's semblance bends not o'er their tomb, Affliction's vlf deplores t heir youthful doom.5' THE BAPTIST C0?NTF SUNDAY S?U00L CONVENTION AT GILGAL. The Sunday School Influence Gathering Strength and Members Every Day. Old Gilgal Large, Generous ' and Leaky. The late annual Convention of the Baptist Sunday schools of ridgefield County, at Gilgal, was, if we mistake not, the most important ever held since the in ception and organization of the movement. And very few of our people dream of the grand proportion which the Sunday school work in ridgefield has assumed un der the auspices of that body. Until the past Sunday we had not alf ended one of these conventions, and very gn at was our surprise- md equally great should be our gratitude to God-at beholding the splen didly marshaled strength of the Sunday school influence. Aa we seated ourselves and cast our eyes over the vast throng which tilled the huge old church, we dis covered familiar and honored |ttces from all parts of our comity-parts the most distant and diverse-and faces not only mature and sedate, but young, fair, and full ol' life and hope. And most of these faces were those ol' del?gales. forty schools were represented. And some idea can be formed ot the spirit of the cause wh^n we say that Ridge Spring sent six teen delegates. And all were present. ?.. h. WATSON, ESQ , rp. ES rn KS. The convention, which had assembled on the friday before, was worthily pre sided over by that perhaps greatest lay worker in the enanty, Robert B. Watson Esq., of Ridge Spring. The President, if we do not err, is elected at the opening of each annual convention: and certainly no man could have been called to the chair whose zeal, christian spirit and graceful urbanity more littedhim to fill it. than II. B. Watson. Among the preachers who had been present were Messrs. Russey, Thomas, Williams, Waite, Caines, Car son and Hundley. Bul all these had departed to be with their own people on Sunday. And there remained, of clergy men, only Mr. Mealing and Mr. Pant. THE ED?C ATI OX OK A CERTAIN Nl'MliEI*. OK VO?KO MEN'. Prominent among the proceeding? of the session was the adoption of a resolu tion for the eleemosynary education to the Christian Ministry, of a certain number of young men by the body-say perhaps two-or three-at a lime. Karil such young man is lo be nominated by (he school to which he belongs. This w<- con sider a grand measure. And il is cer tainly one which betokens the rapidly growing financial power of the convention. The collections in the diff?rent schools thai belong to this convention, during the year just past, far exceed any!hing of the sort hitherto known. EDORFIELD THE NEXT Pf.AOE OF MEETING. By vote of the convention, our town was chosen as the place for its next meet ing-on friday before the first Sunday in August. ]882. And if the spirit anti forces of these Sunday school workers in crease as largely within Hie coming year as in the one just past, th>-n tte next meeting is bound to be one of great and dignified importance. And we hope thal our citizens will, in every respect, be alive to the requirements of th* occasion. THE f'?oCEEniKfli OP WNOA'Y. The concourse was immense, and Ihe scene was beautifully bright and happy. As we drove upon the grounds, that great est, of all hymn-, "There is a fountain filled With Blood." resounded from the holy building in ponderous and soaring strains, filling the very groves and fields, and reminding fallen man of his surest his only-refuge-the blood that was shed on Calvary. Miss Leila Strom presided at Ihe organ, and despile lier early youth, proved herself an accomplished musician Bef< re the morning sermon, two addresses were delivered, the first hy that almost phenoniinally gifted young orator, Kugene Cannon, thc second hy Mr. Norton W Brooker, another one of those great Ridge Spring workers. And then followed the morning seimon by the J?ev. J. p. Meal ing, preceded by prayer from the Rev. J. K. Fant, the pastor of t he church. At 12J the great audience was dismissed for dinner. And the dinner was sumptuous; and on this day, no less (lian on the two preceding days, the hospitality of t!:e peo ple of Gilgal was large and generous. At Ih the audience reassembled within the sacred walls, when followed some very beautiful and spirited singing and two more addresses, one, by j)r. W. II. Tim merman, the other by President' Walann, of Ridge Spring. We would like very mucli to give the matter of all these short though earnest speeches, bul time and space both fail ns. THE SECON0 DEliUOE, AND THE OM? i.'HTRCII AS NOAH'S A P. IC. At 21, amid sultry and oppressive heal, lowering clouds and rolling thunder, th e thronging multitudes were finally dis missed, and the Convention was at an end. .?nd now ensued ?? tumult,1011; hurry skurry-homewards bound-lo escape thc corning deluge. And there was wild mounting into carriages, buggies and wag. ons. And lbw was careful stowing away ol'little children; and higgledy-piggledy tossing about of empty baskets; and ner vous lucking up ol'fine dresses: ami ener gelic covering up of Sunday bonnels and hopeless dependence upon summer duster) and butterlly parasols. A nd all was vain ! For of the two-thirds of I he tribes who departed, all were drenched tn the bone And babies, baskets, dress?s, bonnets, dus ters ami parasols, alike perished in th raging waters. The windows of heaven were opened wide, and the rain fell in overwhelming torrents. The skies were dark, the thunder rolled, and n very sea covered the earth. And Noah and his family, and the beasts, (.wo by two, enter, ed the Ark. And this v/.as the one-third of human souls who had not succeeded in getting away from the scene. And the Ark was old (???gal Church. And the pat riarchs were there-Col. Ram Strom and Mrs. Luke C ni brea tR. And the sons and daughters were all those (hat gathered in. And the beasts were Un- moist and be draggled young men who had in vain tried to protect their horses and buggies. And the doves that offered the olive branch were Airs. Holloway and Mrs. Kant, who played on the organ and stilled the tumult by holy song. And, truth to say, those two hours ot damp imprisonment were to us the pleasantest hours of the day. But old ( ?ilgal leaked fearfully, and, as an Ark, was not quite as typical as she should be, and as 3he will be. The two patriarchs, charged us not to tell that their dear old church leaked. And we promised them faithfully that we would not. Rut, with the utter vileness o? human nature, we cinnot help going back on our word. And what does it matter, when they have al ready given out a contract for needed re pairs and modern improvements ? AN" ARARAT AMONG THK if AGING MTJ.OW8< And now night begins to come on apace and the thunder still rolls, and the tor rents still fall. And the people in (he Ark see that they must lace the storm, or sleep in old Gilgal. And all at once, as if by a sudden impulse, men women and child ren rush forth, mount into their vehicles, and swim away-north, south, east, west And as we emerge from the Atlantic Ocean we see a blessed Ararat. It is Mr. .?ames R. WtUiams's on the hil!. And thousands ol' vehicles and horses stand be* fore it, and thousands ol' human beings crowd within its merciful walls. Unt the dark and stormy Hood of Turkey Creek. J_ lies before us, and we must cross thal yawning anil horrible chasm before dark-, ness falls. So onward we speed, and at the loot of the hill, on the other side, dei scend into the Pacific Ucean, througjj which ( ?od mercifully guides us nnfil we stand on firm ground upon (he we.ders shore ol'Turkey Creek. And we deem it a blessed close of this blessed Convention that the goodly land of Gilgal should tims benignant!}' receive "thelatter rain." ! A P.\ RA' ?RA I'll FOG METHODIST :.-.
