MESSRS. EDITORS: It is always plonsant to mo to tako a retrospect into tho past and to resurrect tilings and persons and piucos, and bring them to light or to place on record tho events past and prosont of things that sur* round mc. With this view I intend to givo you a few dots on tho ahovo named church and its neighborhood, making my remarks us brief as possible This church is a very old ono. 1 cannot give tho dato of its organization, but it dates way back, and it is ono of tho oldest churches in tho county. It was first called Perkin's Creek. Between forty and fifty years ugo it was removed from its present location to tho other side of Conncross, just ahovo tho High j Bridge. It was located a little to tho North of tho hridgo and about thrco hundred yards from it. There it remained for Bomo timo, still going by tho namo of Perkin's Creek, when a portion of tho church beenmo dissatis fied or at least desired to go back to tho old stand, and they determined to return, An effort was made to bring tho whole church membership back to tho old stand, but some of tho members living ou that side of thc river objected and refused to have tho church broken up, and they refused to givo up thc namo of thc church. Tho greater portion ol thc church withdrew and returned to tho old stand und held their meetings in a log house which is now owned by Mr. Tannery. Those who withdrew from tho Porkiu'u Creel Church of course had to form a new organi zation, and select a namo for their church Prom tho circumstance of thoir returning t< tho old stand, they called tho church Return Return is located between four and fivo milci from Seneca City. Perkin's Creek Churcl did not long curvivo thc separation and nov hardly a vestigo of it remains. Return i now very prosperous aird bids fair to continu to work much good. Rev. II. M. Barton i now pastor of thc church. This church ha had many ups and downs, but it has bravel weathered both storms and calms alike, would liko to, and pcrbnps will ero lonr. givo more particularly thc history of th church. I have not tho utatcrial in band t go upon at present. Thc present building i comparatively a trew ono. Around this church is congregated a earnest and zealous class of people, who ar rapidly developing tho surrounding couutn You would bo surprised to sec thc improve monts going on. Houses uro being put u and old v>ites repaired, lands opened ft cultivation, an interest manifested in cdnci (ional matters, and tho peoplo pride then selves in their farms. 1 wns struck with tl cotton crop. Il is certainly very good nod saw there tho best corn that I have sec any where. Just ahovo Return thcro is school taught by Miss Bendy, and ber patrol arc very well pleased with her. Just bolo is another school taught by Mr. E. Co assisted by his daughter. These schools ni not open now, I think, hut they will soon 1 opened. If I did not think that I would ho takit up too much of your space I would liko mention sumo of thc individual crops of tli locality, but I will contant myself hy promi i tig to do so ut some other time. Our couti is rapidly growing and tho pcowle in tl neighborhood of Return have put their shot; ders to thc cl and they aro manfully bel ing to push tho county along. C.

COLUMBIA, July 27,1880. A. S. Ton?, Ed., Andcrsou: DEAU SIR: 1 note your editorial of 16th upon tho chango of schedule of this road, aud I only refer to it for tho purposo of correcting tho idea you seem to enter tain, that tho management of the road is regardless of tho convenience of tho com munity living ou tho linc of tho Blue Ridge Hoad. Such is uot tho caso. I nm anxious to afford nil tho accommodation possible, but at tho same time I must cou? sider thc interests of tho road. Tho recent change of schedule was not voluntary on our part. Every road South of Washington changed its schedule. Tho C., C. & A. changed its schedule, arriving at Columbia Junction at 0.23 P. M., in stead of 4.15; tho S. C. U.R. leaves for Charleston at ?.I5 P.M. instead of 4.15, and Ibo Spartunburg and Union leuves Spnrtanburg two hours later than before. Tins road thcrcforo had to chango its schedule to conform, and leave Greeovillo two hours later, and of course this puts us at Reltou two hours later. I approoiato very fully tho inconvenience of thc present and of tho former schedules. Every effort has been mode by tho present and former Geneva!* Superintendent to' remedy it and frame a schedule which would accommodate both tho freight and passenger Ira (Ho. Tho inconvenience does not result from a want of attention to tho subject, but from thc fact that the samo schedule will not suit both. Tho troublo could bo obviated by run ning separate freight and passenger trains on tho Bluo llidgo Hoad, and I would gladly do so if tho business justified it. Unfortunately it docs not. Thc road is not supported by the country, as you suppose. Up to this dato and us far back ns I can trace it tho Uluo llidgo Hoad has never paid expenses. For tho past year ?teamed 815, OOO, and ?ta expenses wcro 828,000, taxes uot included. Under these circumstances it would scarcely bc judicious to run addi tional trains which could not pay their own expenses As to letting tho freight lio over for 24 hours, that is out of thc question. Tho freight is tho main business of thc road and in this "day of competition a delay of 24 hours is a loss of thc business. You may rest nesurod that whenever thc business of a community will support scpu rnto freight and passenger trains they will bo run. lt is tho interest of the road to do so. But whero there is not business enough to support thc two, one train must bc nindo to do tho work of both. I hope and bclicvo that thc development of traffic through Sonccrt City will so increase tho freight business this full as to justify sepa rate trains mid afford all thc accommodation required; 1 do not Vrrlto ibis lor publication, 1 prefer to keep out of Ibo papers. L desire only to correct your impressions, to lay before you the facts, which I think will satisfy you that tho recent chango was not tho reckless disregard of tho convenience of tho community you thought, and that wo have tried, and aro trying, to givo all thc accommodation consistent with prudent management. A chango will bo made on Monday by which tho trains will lcavo Walhalla later and connect with tho Air Lino at Seneca nod bring tho Anderson mail down. Yours respectfully, JAMES CONNER, Receiver. Tim SOUTHERN LIFE.-Tho Southern Life Insurance Company is Still settling up with its policy holders on "a liberal basis."
