I home. ,We seldom seek respite from the countless cares with which life work burdens us, but long weary weeks of anxious - watching by the . sick bed had rendered us tired, so j tired, and naturally our thoughts e turned to beautiful health-giving C Glenns. So one bright Septem ber morning we bade the old home C good bye, and after a rapid transit found ourselves at this watering pl4pe of well earned, far-famed cel ebrity. We reached it just as the sunset- was resting in benediction t on its glorious trees and the large hotel situated on a beautiful cmi- f nence, spread out its white wings in the dusky evening like a dove of peace, bidding us welcome s to its hospitable portals. We were tired, ph, so tired, and entering the 1 pleasant- room awaiting us, laid a 1 weary headon the window, watched s the' nightfall softly gather, and the myriad of fair lights gleam out in the deepening darkness. How often s in life do we find words too sinall ( to express the needs of the human heart, and in this .instance, I feel a most fully their poverty and inad equacy to describecharming Glenn's and its lovely surroundings. The -spring with its sparkling water, which has.brought health and t gladness to so many hearts; the spring which like unto the balm of Gilead is for the healing of many nations; the lovely walks, the grand majestic trees, made vocal with the P sweet songs of countless forest birds; the grey suntinted hills, the delicate ferns, found deep down in dark ravines, and nestled mid moss covered rocks, all filled our heart with a pleasure so intensely sweet as to be inexpressible. Then when the Sabbatic stillness- told that the day of rest had comae, the allowed day of all the seven~, we gathered in the. chapel (built by the present proprietors) and worshipped God in. all the beauty of holit ness. Again in the solemn still ness of shadowy eve, gallant men and fair maidens gathered C in the spacious -parlors and ~ sang the songs of Zion, like unto ~ the sweet singers of Israel, and methought as the rich voices rose C and swelled, waking the echoes of C night. I wonder, ah I wonder, if they will all meet an unbrokenC band Just beyond where the streets arc all golden Awaiting the-weary feet, Where the angcel's glad hallelujahs (2 Wayworn pilgrims greet. Tradition gives us the following r legend of Glenn Springs, which I will be read with interest by many r throughout our sunny land who have ( drunk of its healing waters, and 1 lingered near the shade of its ma- -i jestic oaks. I Tradition says that in 1764, ove'r e a century ago," when 'the wild deer f and1 other denizens of the forest c were plentiful in the district of t Spartanburg, old hunters observed f trails converging from all points of I the compass to a certain marshy cove at the base of a hill, where the g celebrated spring is no0W situated. To this marsh these wild animals were in the habit, during the spri.ig and summer of resorting to drink the water that ran from it, and< many an antlered buck lost his life, in caring for his health. The cat-] tle too belonging, to the early set ters had the same proclivity, and when missing were sought and in variably found near what was then known as the Ponder marsh. Sub sequently the spring was discovered and the people began to imitate the cattle in drinking the water, whose curative powers they soon learned to value, finding it efficacious in manifold ways, and a soverign rem edy for all -eruptive diseases. So 1 Glenns obtained more than localJ notoriety and for long years has been transmitted a valuable heir- 1 loom from one to another until it has reached the present gentle manly proprietors, Messrs. Simpson & Simpson, who by their genial manners, high-bred courtesy, and and thoughtful consideration for their gnests, at once combine the morts of home with the eon eniences of a hotel. During the re ent season more than eleven undred guests have registerd on heir book, while more than twelve undred have frequented the spring :r the benefit of its wonderful rater. May every successive year ring them increasing and deserv d prosperity. The grounds are eing beautifully laid out and own in grass, so that the grass iats will appear as if a Musul ian had spread a carpet green, rhereon for angels feet to tread in rayer, and the daisies and vio :ts, these jewels of the floral world, rill vie with each other to make the pot one of peculiar lovliness. Far down in the evergreen glades and :rests dense, the Virginia creeper asps in her tenacious embrace the ggged trees, while graceful ivy and owering clematis clamber in wild rofusion. Ah, an earthly Eden, a erfect Arcadia is beautiful Glenns. 'is seldom in the journey of life bat you meet with so pleasant a arty as we found there. Some of e brightest ornaments that gild outhern society, genius, wit and eauty, each held sway and the ours flew by on golden wings. Lnd I wonder, a 1 wonder, when re shall meet again; ah shall we ail in mid ocean but to steer far part on life's vast sea ? For two brief weeks we lingered i this beautiful section of country ploring fern gemmed ravines, limbing grey hills, gathering peb les from the bed of purling streams, hestnuts from high towering trees nd wild flowers from the dew-lined alleys. But all too quickly the days ped by. The last ramble was aken, the last song sung. the last ro;ds spoken to the many pleasant riends who had crept into our eart of hearts, and we stood alone y the dear old spring with its aline waters, wondering if ever re should stand there again, know 2g so well what a world of change is. But the leaves whispered ftly in the golden gloaming. the rook rippled on over its rocky bed, nd a thousand voices of night eemed to echo I wonder, ah I won er.

HIRM'S VISIT. -0 '-Going to git married, be you, iram ?" Hiram Honeydew colored at the brupt question, but he answered. ~uthfully : "I don't see .. 'at else I kin do, unt Peggy. Si: ter Susan-is bent n a-marryin' the .chool-teachcr an' -gon' off to the Black Hills or m' eres away out of all creation. L' here's all the fall work a-comin' n-that medder hay to stack, an' orn to cut, pumkins to gether an' 11 them windfr.ils an' Siberian rabs to make up in cider fur the pplebuttur, an-' no help to be got ar love or money. An' it stands reason 1 can't t-md the farm and ook the vittles, too. So I thought oon as thrashin1 was over-you've romised to stay till then, Aunt eggy-an' then I thought I'd go ond som'eres nigh about Clover ~reek, where some of our kinfolks ve, an' stay a week or so, an' git a-somebody - that can house :eep an' the like-do the milkin' n' churnin', 'tend to puttin' up ruit, makin' appk-butter, take keer f the chickens an' duc~ks, an' do he cookin' an' cleanin'. Sister usan was a powerful good house :eeper, an' she couldn't be beat .-cookin', either. If I could find a ;ood sort of a woiman that 'ud cook kal to' Susan, i wouldn't mind .-marryn' her." "Humphi! So you expect to git a fe an' a gcod one, too, in a week ir two, hey?' You're a gump, Hi. am Honeyd ew, an' nothin' else. esides, you ought to git a wife rou could h eer fur, as well as a ;ood housekeceper. Housekeepin' m' coolgin' ain't everything, I tell rou. There's sech a thing as affeck ;hin between man and wife." But Hiram scouted at this idea. "One woman is the same as mother to me," he' returned, loftily. 'I want a housekeeper, an' that's yhy I'm a-goin' to marry at all." "Val then, Hiram, if you're ound an' determined to go an' mint up a wife thv1t a-way, mebbelI rn help you a little. I knowed ,he folks about Clover Creek like a >ook when yer Uncle Eli was alive, m' we lived on the old'-Honeydeni Tar. An' thar was Mahala Nut er. She married Job Perky, an hey bought a farm on Clover Hill, 'other side the creek. There wan't iobody could beat Mahala a house meepn' them days, an' most likelv her darter, Marthy Jane, hes tuck after her. They are sort o' kin folks o' yourn, too. Mahaly was yer Uncle Eli's own cousin. An' ef you like, I'll write 'em a few lines, an' tell 'em you're a-comin' an' sort o' perpare 'em, fur nobody likes to hey comp'ny onexpected." And so it was settled, much to Hiram's .relief, and he whetted his scythe and went out to mow a feed of green clover for his horses with a lighter heart than he had had for a week. For he had made up his mind that if Martha Jane Perky was as good a housekeeper as Aunt Peggy said, lie would bring her home with him as Mrs. Honeydew in a week's time. if she was willing. And no doubt she would be, for Hiram was quite a goodlooking man, with pleasant brown eyes, curly brown hair, and a thick, brown moustache. Moreover he was "well-to-do," and almost any of the girls in his own neighborhood would have jumped at the chauce of presiding over is broad acres a4d pictures que cottage farm-house, half buried in sugar-maples and tall Lollard poplar-trees. But to Hiram, as to most otfiers, distance lent enchantment to the view, and he was "hound and de .termined," as Aunt Peggy had said, to seek his fate in some of the wide old farm-houses dotting the fertile borders of Clover Creek. "He'll be a mighty good ketch fur you an' no'mistake, Marthy Jane," commented Mrs. Perky, when Aunt Peggy's letter had been duly received and read. "A mighty good ketch an' you must do your best to ketch him. 'Tain't often a gal has sech a chance throwed at her head, and if you have .got a mite o' pluck about you, you won't let them stuck-np Briggses git ahead of you. Delilah Briggs would give her-ears to git ahead of you, I'll bet a button !" To which bit of logic Martha Jane assente<l, with a toss of her head, and the assurance that Delilah Briggs, nor no one else, wasn't a goin' to git ahead of her. Consequently; when farmer Per ky drove his'gray team to the gate, with Hiram Honeydew on the seat beside him, the necessary prepara tions had already been made floors scoured, baking done, and a substantial country dinner, with a dessert of apple-dumplings and sweet-cream sauce, ready to be served. While Martha Jane, in a pink plaid frock, with fluted- ruffles, stood waiting to welcome the ex pected guest. "She's mortal humly," thought Hiram, as he sat smoking, -after dinner, on the porch, and- mentally reviewing Martha Jane's narrow forehead, hard black eyes and high colored cheeks. "But, then, I ain't adlookin' out fur beauty, an' if she suits me other ways, I reckin 'taint't no great matter how she looks. A girl with them kind of eyes an' a mahog any colored skin kin do the chores an make butter, tan' sech, as good as if she had blue eyes an' goldf lookin' hair, like that girl they call Hitty, that brought in the dumplin's an' passed round the dip fur 'em at 'dinner to-day. She's the hired girl, I reckin. 'T any rate I ain't got time to hunt round much, an''I reckin Marthy Jane won' mind changin' her name to Honeydew afore long, an' I've got to hurry up I ain't got no time to waste a-courtin'. I reckin if nothin' hap pens we kin be married in a week, an' git back home. I don't like to stay here a-settin' round doin' noth in', with all the fall work a-gittin' behind at the farm." "Oh, dear?" Down through the long grass and crimson, clover-beds, under scrubby haws and tall persimmon trees, went Hitty Mavis, a deep caped sunbonnet shading her violet eyes and tangled yellow curls. She was after t.he cows standing knee-deep in the tall aftermath, where they hed been turned for pasturage after the meadow hay was cut. "Ohi, dear !" sighed Hitty again, "I'm so tired. and here's the cows to drive home, milking to do, sponge to set for the baking to-morrow, ahd goodness knows what else, and-Oh !" She started back, with a little scream, for seated on the fence. under the shaddw of a crimson leafed sassi.fras-tree, sat Hiram Honydew, cooly watching her. Hitty's cheeks -turned from pink to scarlet as- she met the admiring glances of his frank, brown eyes, and her fBeart beat faster than com mon. But Hitty was a sensible girl, so she said, "Good evening, Mr. Honeydew !" quite coolly, and be gan driving home the cows. So they walked together through the velvety aftermath, -dotted with scarlet butterfly-weed, and crimson petaled "nigger-heads," the lowing cows filing slowly home, lazily chewing their cuds, and switching their tails at the flies. Hiram let down the bars, and turned the cows into the yard, while Hitty brought out the milk pails from under a bunch of burdock leaves, where she had left them. And somehow, in spite of the milking and setting the sponge, and doing up the chores, Hitty's. heart beat more lightly than it had for ray a day. And instead' of one week Hiram Honeydew stayed two, but still Martha Jane had not been invited to change her name. "She's a mighty good house keeper," thought Hiram, medita tively. "If little Hitty could only cook an' housekeep as good as her. I-don't-know- " lie ended by building a castle in the air, wherein Hitty Mavis, with her violet eyes, and "goldy" col ored hair, was the chief figure. "Hitty Mavis !" Martha Jane's hard; black eyes looking harder than ever, and her sharp features seemed sharper still as she bounced wrathfully into the kitchen where Hitty sat slicing a bowl of yellow Crawford peaches f'or supper. "You kin pack up you duds and go ! You a-settin' up to ketch a beau, as if Hiram Honeydew would look at you." "I-Martha Jane, what on earth do you mean?" Hitty's eyes expanded, and the pink in her -cheeks deepened to a glowing scarlet. "You know well enough what I mean !" sneered Martha. "You needn't to look so innercent, like butter wouldn't melt in your mouth, an' you a-strainin' every nerve to ketch Hiram Hon'eydew-a-cajolin' him. to help you milk, an' drive up the cows, an' the like. It's jest like your owdacious doin's, an' you kin pack up an' leave-right away, too!" ">,at T don't know where to go!" Hitty's heart beat like a fright ened robin's at the thought of be ing driven friendless into the world, but Martha Jane was im placable. "It's nothin' to me where you go, so you leave here," she-sniffed, as she flounced angrily away. "Go with me, Hitty I" said Hiram Honeydew stcpped - suddenly into the little kitchen. "Go with me, Hitty, and be my wife." Hitty's cheeks grew redder than before, but she did not draw away from his offered embrace. "Not gone yet?,' cried a shrill voice, as the door was jerked vic: iously open. "Didn" I tell you to pack up-.Oh, Mr. Hopeydew, you here? Come and have tea-we're a-waitin' fur you." "Excuse me !" was the celd re ply. "I shall just have time to take my wite-that is to be-over to the parsonage. Will you come to the wedding?" But, with a scornful sniff and toss of her head, Martha Jane flounced of|f again. "An' so you didn't marry Mg hala's darter, after all !" cried Aunt Peggy, who was waitinig to receive them. "No-no !" stammered Hiram. Hit ty kin learn to keep house, -I reckin-" "Learn?" cried Hitty. "Why, I did all the housekeeping at Aunt Mahala's. She is my aunt, though they wouldn't let me call her so. Marthy Jane never did a lick of work in her life." And so Hiram Honeydew got a wife and a housekeeper all in one, after all. COLORED PROYISIONs.-Every man has his favorite story, and the Hon. Roswell P. Flower, of New York, tells the following: "One day an old negro, clad in rags, and carrying a burden on his head, ambled into' the executive ch..mber, and dropped his load on the floor. Stepping toward the gov ernor, he said: "Em you de gubner, sah?" Being answered in the affirmative, he said : "If d at am a fac' I'se glad ter meet yar. Yer see I libs way up dar in de back ob de country, and is a poor man, sah. I h'ar .dar is some pervishuns in de cons'tution fer de culled man, and I am bar to get some ob em sah." "H ave you heard any bad news?" asked a minister's wife of her hus band, as lie entered thie house, look ing a little despondent. "Yes," the good man replied, "I have; the marriage of young Smith and the Begley girl is put off until next year." A Kansas woman was upbraiding her husband when a cyclone hove in sight, and, with a sigh of relief, the unhappy man ran out into its path and was safely blown into the next county. "Dear lady, please help an unfor tunate man. I ain't had no work at my trade since last winter.' "Poor man ! What is your trade?" "Sovelln' snow, nm." iu itous. HIGH DAY AT ST. LUKE'S. Sunday, Oct. 14th, was a high day at St. Luke's in Newberry county, S. C. The beautiful church was solemnly dedicated to the ser vice of the triune God, Father, Son and Holy Ghost in the presence of, perhaps, 500 persons. The dedica tion sermon was preached by Rev. J. A. Sligh, and the pastor was assisted in the dedication also-by Prof. H. Dysingcr, who preadhed in the afternoon. The two sermons by Rev. Sligh and that by Profes sor Dysinger .were excellent and gave general satisfaction. Ten . members were received into full fellowshi'p by the pastor,- mak ing 30 received by him during the year. The communion was the largest ever witnessed at St. Luke's, about 300 surrounding the Lord's table. There was general rejoicing, and the feast of dedication was kept with glad hearts. The pastor read the following paper which shows in brief the con dition of the congregation; SKETCHi Q ST. LUKE'S CHURCH. In the year 1827, three years af ter the organization of the S. C. Synod, Rev. J. D. Scheck was ap pointed a missionary and ordered te visit vacant congregations and organize new ones. In June of that year he visited the neighbor hood of the Bedenbaughe and Boo zers and was s" much encouraged that he organizet a congregation in a log church, built as a union house of worship about a mile Sontheast of where St. Luke's now stands. After the. trganization of the chnrch, Rev. John G. Schwartz was called as pastor of the new society, and in 1828 the first St. Luke's .was built on the spot where the graveyard now stand. The house soon. proved to be too small for the growing congregation, and it was enlarged by the addition of wings on the sides. The rapid in crease of the congregation soon de manded a still larger house, and .n W. Berley, that portion of-he eon gregation residing in the North eastern end of the charge purchased the churchE and - zemoved it int6 their midst, and were organized into a separate congregation called Col ony church, which has grown into a strong congregation. The members of St. Luke's in the meantime erected a large and commodious house of worship which has stood ,till the present. ' It has been remodeled and. beautified, and is this day rededicated to the scr vice of that God whose mercy and goodness we, with grateful hearts, acknowledge. The church has been served by 14 pastors, viz,, Revs. J. D. Scheck, J. G. Schwartz, J. Moser, G. W. Harter, Herman Aull, W.~ Berly, J. C. Hope, J. B. Anthony, J- P. Margart, T. S. Boinest, J. A. Sligh, J. L. Smithdeal, J. Hawkins, H. S. Wingard, and J, D. Bowles. - -Four of the pasters were twie called to serve the chutrch, viL, J. Moser, W, Berley, T. S. Boinest and J. Hawklins, who is the present pastor. Since the organization St. Luke's has furnished,4 twelve of her sons for the gospel ministry, viz., Elijah Elmore. Elijah Hawkins, P. W. Hawkins, S. R. Sheppard, Levi. Bedenbaugh, S.-W. Bedenbaugh, J. Hawkijis, J. D. Boozer, C. P. Boo zer, Z. W. Bedenbaugh, L. P. Haw kins and Benjamin Boozer. J. D. Boozer labored in the ministry bat a short time, and then turned his attention to the ptactice of medi cine. Benjamin Boozer was reared in St. Luke's church, but feeling himself called. to the gospel minis try, and despairing of all hope of securing the proper training in the Lutheran church,- he united with the Methodist church and labored with success in the ministry until last year, when he was called to rest, respected and lamented by his brethren. Of the- others, six have gone to their reward. Elijah Elmore died in Georgia, Elijalb Hawkins in Vir ginia, P. W. Hawkins in -West Tennessee, L. Bedanbaugh in Geor gia, S. R. Sheppard in Mississipipi, and S. W. Bedenbaugh in Florida. - While St. L'uke's has thus given her sons to the church, pnd her members have scattered themselves into various parts of our country, and her own graveyards have grad ually filled with her departed, she is strcnger and more vigorous to day than at any former period of her history. In blessing others she has blessed herself. And to.day Iwe join in this feast of dedication, with a membership of over 300, with possibilities of fiture useful ness- that can scarcely be estimated. Let us then, while we rededicate our beautiful temple to the worship of Alnighty God, reconsecrate our selves to His service, that we may, indeed, enjoy not only this oca sion, but the 'continued smiles of our kind heavenly Father,.and be a still greater blessing to the world.
