The ceremony of the Lord's supper v.-as celebrated and a largo number of communicants rtcdved Ihe elements typical of Ihe blood and body of our Led Jesus C irist. The church, as ic iicnal dprmrninfttion on similar occasion?, was tastefully and beautifuliy decorated in commemoration of the death of the son of man, the resurrection of the son of God? the one who died for the sins of the woild and the ether who was gloiioualy raised from the dead to draw all men to God by virtue of the great sacrifice ho had made one person in whom man and God were harmoniously bi ended Rev. J. G. Graiohen, the beloved and able pastor of St. Stephen'?, preached a remakable strong and eloquent sermon on ';Phe Resurrection," from Philippiaus 3: x. Those who were so fortunate as to hear this sermon are unanimous in the opinion that it was the finest sermon in thought, diction and eloquence that has been heard in this place for many a year. Five applicants lor continuation, nameh: Rudolph Snelgrovp, Pickens Roof, Carl Roof, Pascal Ilcndrix and Harry Coiley, having passed a satisfactory probation, were received into full connection.

According to Mr. Jake Suelgrove, Mr. Charles Lewis had his first ex perience with a "grasshopper" od Tuesday of last week. Mr. Charles Lewis bravely entered the field of Mr. J<ike Snelgrove on the morning of that day, laid violent hands on a "grasshopper" and'ran it around the field until 10 o'clock. Some time the hopper would be on one side of the row and Chailes on the other, and vice vers8; then the hopper would be in the air and Charles on tk ground. Soon the positions would be changed and Charles would be iD the air and the hopper on the ground After awhile, according to Jake, Charles had the monster down and bad him on bis back whaling Lim ap if his arm was propelled by his 3anianic majesty. They then arcse and the bewildered and mystified CbaiLs ren him until 12 o'clock. Take says he thought Ckailes would be very much broken down, but be ;ame up as lively as a cricket and as gaily as a lark, at the sound of the dinner horn.

S:ate Constables Make Successful and Impoitant Raids. To the Editor of tbe Dispatch: Becent reports from this vicini'y of violations of the dispensary hw have resulted in action being taken by the State Constabulary. Acting under orders from Chief Constable Bahr, Constable G. Just Brown came here about a week ago and obtained information against several parties running blockade distilleries, and on the 31st ult, James Crocker, Joseph Lightfoot, F. B. Berry and J. D. Allsbrook, all members of the State Constabulary, came over from Orangeburg under orders to do some reid ng. They obtained search wairants and arrest warrants against several parties from Magistrate Jtfooat, ani with the assistance cf his constable, W. L K Johnson, made things lively for the law breakers yesterday. The first search made was of the premises of Frank Mooter, a few miles east of town, and resulted in ilia capture of one copper bottom still kettle and three still furnaces that had recently been used. These were all found in the head of Huckabaa's swamp and on lands of Frank Moorer. The raiding party then went to the residence of Columbus and Arnold Sturkie, who live near by, and made a search of the premises, but nothing was found. From there they went to David Moorer's premises. This man was reported as being a blockader, and in a short time after the arrival the officers began to find evidences of it. "When the search was completed they had found a freshly used still furDace within one hundred yards of j MooreFs dwelling and only a few steps from the back of his barn. At j I lie furnace were three barrels whidi bid recently eontai; el rnaeh or beer, in faei had j ist been emptied into the t>;iiurii. Further down the branch a t till had been found which had not been used iu some-time, but the Ln?iu kettle could not be located In about fifty yards of Mooier's dwelling, in a plum orchard und iu an outhoufcc only a few steps from his dwelling, eight other ma.sh or beer bajrehs were found. Mr. Moorer protested that he was innocent and ignorant of the whole thing and that he could prove :i good reputuion for iruth and veracity. T * 1 ** - 1 h .. ni Arf A/1 ill 1116 Uliei'uoou l uk pui l j aiuueu out on the wept side of the Florida CeLtral and Peninsular raihoad to call on Joel I Harsey, who is said to have some notoriety as a moonshinfr hereabouts. Mr. Harsey has been visited by officers before, and was not at the house when the men called, and they began to look around the premises. Two of them soon struck trail down a creek near by and found Mr. Harsey and sou busy at work. They were running a copper kettle on the creek about two hundred yards from the house distilling some ''bug juice" for Easter. When they saw the officers coining they made their escape, but were forced to leave the demijohn and wash tub containing the whisky. Mr. Horsey succeeded in carrying with him the "still worm" notwithstanding it was hot and 5d use as the officers came up. When the party returned to towD with the still tied behind a buggy, citizens on the street greeted them with cheers. They have done some good work and have the sympathy of the Christian people of this community. Justice. Swansea, S C, April 2, 1809. Attention, Veterans.
