E?ieefield Advertiser THUS. J.ADAMS,.EDITOR WEDNESDAY, JAN. 6,1897. TO BE REMEMBERED. The year 1896 will be memora ble for the following Weds and events. (1) In international matters, a treaty of arbitration between Great Britain and the United Stales in the Venezuela matter, in which Great Britain throws a sop to the United; States by a small concession to tho Munroe doc trine, herself receiving, practi cally, ?H -he disputed territory while Venezuela pays the fiddler. It looks as if John Bull had tickled Uncle Sam and in return Uncle Sam had tickled John Bull, leav ing our sister republic deep in the soup. (2) The defeat of Bryau and fre3 silver, which maybe a finality, or the issue may be made again in 1900-B problem too far cfif to eolve at this writing. (3) In science, the discovery of the X-rays by Prof. Roentgen, by which the human eye virtually sees through an eight inch plank. (4) The distant application of the electric power generated by Niagara Falls, and the opening of a canal through the Iron Gatos of the Danube, which makes that river navigable from the Black Sea tc the Bavarian frontier. (5) The trdal wave in Japan on June 19th, which destroyed 27,000 human being3; the trampling to death of 1,500 persons during the coronation festivities at Moscow, Russia, on May 30th, and the cy clone at St. Louis on May 27'b, which killed 500 persons. (6) Nansen's expedition to the North Pole in which he approach ed within 225 miles of that cov eted goal. Nearer than any other explorer. Senator Tillman and family have gone on to Wash'dgton. Gladstone celebrated his eighty seventh birthday on Dec. 29th. a new disease-neuras an old elTff??rviliis a new name for with it. ^v***^Sickles is ill On Monday the schools through out the State re-opened, and th? boys and girls have settled dowu to five qr six months of hard work, basted at Central, _-; last wei.k, en rouv^irom San Francisco to Washington. A terrible blizzard is prevailing in the Northwest-thermometer 15 to 18 degrees below zero and still falling. It will doubtless bring us a cold wave, but we want no buzzards here. On Saturday a tornado struck the town of Morningsport, La., and blew down every house in the town but two, and killed several pjople. An immense conflagration in Nashville, Tenn., on last Saturday destroyed more than a million dollars worth of property-the most disastrous in the history of the city. Debs has left tho populist party and joined the socialists; Coxey has left the populists and joined the democracy. Which is the greater, the loss of Debs to the pop ulists or tho gain of Coxey to the "democracy?" Reports still come from Havana that Maceo is alive and is recu perating rapidly. Tho Cubans have a project of sending him to the United States as soon as he is able and have already ordered a vessel for that purpose. The war cloud in Cuba was not lifted by the death of Maceo, but still hangs like a pall over the ill-fated Islaud. Hietory is re peating itself and the cruel cam paigns of Cortes and Pizarro are conducted again by Weyler and his minions. On Dec. 30th a serious fire oc curred in Darlington, destroying a number of valuable buildings, stores and offices, including the dispensary. Loss ahmt $75,000, insurance light. Fire supposed to have been caused by explosion of eroseue lamps in an office. The republican platform de- : eland for bimetallism contingent ( upon an international agreement ' fur the double standard, but very 1 few placed any confidence in the ? declaration, but on last Saturday J Senator Wolcott sailed for Europe I ks the envoy of bimetallism, and v during this month an interna- r Honal conference will be held in * London, in which five governments a will be represented. I The Great Power? of Europe lave at last heeded the clamors of ?hristendom and have notified the tal tan o? Turkey that he must no enger delay to cr.rry out his >rcmises of reform in the admin slration of law . and ' justice hroughout his dominions. Wheu Dan Tompkins, Secretary '^Staie, was in Edgefield last, ?alesday in December, he wore a lat, much-dilapidated, that he natl been using for a hen's nest ; and although it rained all day-he stood in it and took it just as we farm ers do, without an umbre?a; AU of this indicates that Dan has as pirations-shall we say guberna torial? The Venezuelan question, that a year ago threatened to becom'j a casun belli between the United Staten and Great Britain, has been settle'! to the satisfaction of all concerned. The war scare, how ever, was of benefit to our country, occasioning as it did the strength ening of our coast defences and the building of new and formida ble war vessels. Mr. Cowper Patton, a member of the legislature from Richland county, will at the present session introduce a bill to re-district the State so that each congressional district will be made up of coun ties contiguous to each other. There will be two Piedmont dis tricts, two coast districts, one cen tral district, one Pee Dee district, and one Savannah river district, this last will of course take in Edgefield, and be made up. prob ably, of Abbeville, Barnwell, Ed gefield and Anderson. JOHNSON'S REMINISCENCES His Estimate of Some of thc Preachers of thc Edirefieldf Association The following in relation to Rome of Edgefield's old-lime Bap tist preaoners, we clip from the Baptist. Courier of recent date. It is from the pen of Dr. W. B. John son of sainted memory, himself a resident of our town for many years. At the protracted meeting at Edgefield, I had the opportunity since my removal of becoming Acquainted with the ministers of I V^^ctfield Baptist Association whom JTw t kuown beforo< And most satiefal??j^eed WOE the inteiv^riM^^^^ .preachers, whose laborstsr was pleased to bless in the great work of saving souls. Of some of these I shall take pleasure iu giving reminiscences; but todo it of all tho ministers would be im practicable, for waut of the neces sary acquaintance with them. Bro. Nicholas W. Hodges posses sed good mind, with warm zeal and ardent piety in the cause of his divine Master. From youth to manhood he was exemplary aud conscientious in his conduct. At au early period of life he made profession of the .religion of Jesus Christ and desired to be a praacher of his gospel. On entering the South Carolina College he took a partial ccur?e, as he had the ministry in view, that hu might pursue those studies only which he thought would contribute to his usefulness as a minister of ?Christ. In the development of of his powers as a 'preacher he was happily prepared for usefulness iu protracted oieetings. On the most exciting occasions he was calm, self possessed, exhibiting the truth in plainness of speech and in deep earnestnees of soul, aud with direct purpose to impress the heart and understanding, that the soul might be saved ; aud his labors wore not in vain, for God was with him and blessed him and made him a bless-1 mg to many precious souls. At the close of our meeting at the courthouse, the ministers divided into two bandy, one going north and tho other going south among the churches. The in habitantsof the town of Newberry, in which there was no Baptist organization, attended some of these meetings, and on their return home proposed to their fellow citi zens to invite the ministers to visit them and hold a protracted meet ing in their town, which was agreed to, and a deputation was sent with a request to Bro. Hodges and his band that they should come and hold a meeting among them. On their arrival they were welcomed anel conducted to a beautiful grove which had been appropriately prepared for tke oc casion. In this consecrated place these holy men of God labored for many days and nights for the good )f the people, and with tie bless ing of the God of grace, large was :he ingathering of immortal souls o his great name. Of ail rania md classes willing convects came 0 Jesus with penitent hearts and relieving minds and were; buried vith him in immersion. Of these 1 Baptist church was formed, and ometime after Bro. Hodges he arne their pastor, but whilst ble to preach he continued his abors in protracted meetings with nuch acceptance to Iiis urethral iud usefulness in the cause of hi tleavenly Father. ??_ / Bro. M. M. .^bney, wi?hou?p'he lid of the school*, had acojnred a profound and distinct trcquaint xuce with divine truth as taught in the Bible, and also the power of impressing its great principles and its solemn sanctions upon his hearers in a clear and attractive manner. To this power he had at tained, through God's blcpsiug, by a careful attention to his lan guage, which was most happily suited to express and enforce the rich store of thought which he had treasured up in his mind. His judgment, too, wai? so accurate that it enabled him io suit his dis course with sigular propriety to the occasion. When not engaged the aspect of Bro. Atney'a coun tenance indicated an abstraction from the world, as if he were med itatiug about heavenly things; but when he was listening to the able discourse of a good minister, or engaged in conversation on an im portant subject, his countenance would become enlived and his eye be brightened up ja a peculiar manner indicative of the interest he felt in the subject, a,ud of the delight with which he drank in the streams of knowledge anOttvis dom. It is not surprising, there fore, that he was an instructVe and interesting preacher, and al ways heard with acceptance by all classes. He was not un frequently eloquent, and in lus last discoune rose to the sublime, His mind had been for sometime ripening for glory, and in that discourse a view of the scene around the throne above seemed suddenly to present itself to his mind, in which the heavenly choir sing the praises ot' their Redeemer Lord. This filled his heart to overflowing aud he p lured forth its fulness in exalted strains. The audience felt their force and yielded to 1 bo transport ing thrill lt hat. brought their feel ings into unison wi h those of the minister of God. The health of the servant of the Lord was too feeble to ena ble him to enduro the labors of the ministry on earth through a long life, and therefore when he was about thirty year? of age his Master bade him go up up higher to servtwhim in a purer and better world.
