Now Pastor of tho Picketts, Mount Pleasant and Contra! Churches. John Redledge Riley was born in Abbeville District, (now county) on the 12th day of April, IS'Ji). lie was prepared for college in the Presby terian High School at Greenwood, S. C. His rapid progress in this school soon demonstrated to his rela tives and friend* that he was a proper subject for a collegiate edu cation. Ile was trained with this view and at tho age of twenty years entered tho South Carolina College, which was, at that time, one of the first colleges in tho country. His class was a very large one and con tained some of the brightest young men in the State. Ho graduated from this college with distinction in tho year 1854, and was made vale dictorian of lite Clnriosophio Society in addition to ib li'.." ing his graduat ing speech. On having college he was elected principal of the Laurens Academy, which position ho filled very acceptably for two years and then resigned to accept a position ns teacher in thc Greenwood High School. After teaching in this school for one year, he felt that thc linger of God was directing him to ward tho sacred desk, and that his mission in life should and muct bc to declare the word of God to n losi world. Having decided upon his life's work, he entered I he Theologi cal Seminary at Columbia and spent three years in special preparation for tho ministry. At the close of ii Theological course ho was called to the pastorate of the Laurens Presby terian church, and, at thc same time, was elected a professor in thc Lau rens Female College. He was licensed in April, 1800, and in Octo ber of the same year ordained by tin South Carolina Presbytery to preach the Gospel. He. was for seventeen years, from 1800 to 1877, the pastor of Laurens church, which ho served ably and faithfully and to the entire satisfaction of his large and growing congregation. Ile was beloved by nil the members of bis first church, and, under his pastoral care and ten der visitation, tho church largely in creased its membership and grew stronger in thc work of the Master. While serving as the pastor of this church he was for a number ol' years tile successful President of tho Lau rens Female College. This institu tion was "very successful under the management of President Kiley. In the year 1877 tho subject of this sketch was eleeted chairman ol' the Faculty of Adgcr College, located at Walhalla, S. C. Ile held this posi tion for six years, dining which time bc taught (Jreek, Logic and Moral and Mental Science. During all of these years the college w:is one of thc most successful in the State and sent out some of thu brightest young men the ?'tate bas ever produced. The reputation as a teacher and preacher of President Kiley was wide, and in the year 1 SS:! Newberry College conferred upon him the title of Doctor of Divinity. Since thc year 18811 Dr. Riley bas been preach ing to tlie churches of Picketts county. Under bis ministry tho old churches have prospered and be bas organized several new oms in this county and they are all grieving in strength every year. It will be seen from tho foregoing that Dr. Riley bas spent bis lifo in touching and preaching. Tho first named is second only to the latter. Ile bas been a decided success as both. Nature bas given him n very strong mind. I?0 is a deep and logi cal thinker. His mind is clear cul in every particular and he possesses tho raro gift of dissecting n proposi tion into its simplest clements arid opabling thc inquirer to seo tho truth in ber beautiful sim plicity. This cast of mind stamps him as a successful teacher. The ideal teacher is bc who himself sees the truth clearly and lins the power and gift to enable tho pupil to se?' tho truth ns clearly as the Master. Dr. Riley's mind belongs to the ana lytical typo, ami whether lecturing to a class or expounding the doc trines of religion, clearness, strength and force mark bis utterances. His pupils everywhere love bim, and they aro legion. Many noble women and brilliant mon in this and adjoining States dolight in speaking of Dr. John R. Riley as the preceptor of tboir youthful days. He always tal?es a strong bold on both bead and lioart of tho pupil and is as careful in giving direction to thc conscience as to tho intelligence. " In tho pulpit his mind movoB in tho groovo of tho logician-its natural oloiuont. Ho strives io lay bare before his hearer tho plain and simple principles of tho Christian religion and then urges the heart to lay hold of those beau tiful principios and apply them to t? e Christian lifo. Ill tho councils of tho church his opinion is always Bought and seldom not followed. Dr. Kiley is still strong and vigor ous, both physically and montally and is a pillar in tho Presbyterian elm roh. Dr. Kiley was married to Miss Anna A., daughter of Kev. 8. Don nelly, nt Ch conwood, S. C., on tho! 18th day of September, 18G0. Tho issue of this m arr iago was six chil dren-four daughters and two sons, only four of whom survive, ono son and threo daughters. His eldest j son, Kev. S. li. Kiley, died on the nth doy of January, 1801. Ha was, at the time of his death, pastor of tho Lowry ville church and was' greatly loved by his people, and gave much promise of futuro useful ness.-Pupil, in Southern Presbyte rian. OASTORIA.

Sumo Interesting Details About How "The Old Rollable" was Operated Years Ago. In this railway ngo tho acquisition of tho old South Caroliua Railroad by tho Southern, which again makes that road tho most important to tho city of Charleston, gives tho carly history of the pioneer road, whore ?nco tho motuc power was tho wind, an especia! interest. While the South Carolina was not tho first railroad in tho world, and possibly not tho first in tho United Staten, it was conspicuously Aral i<? many particulars. It was tho first road ever constructed with a definite plan of operating exclusively by locomotive power; it waB the first railroad to use an American-built locomotive ; it was the first to usc locomotives that were purely the product cf American invention ; it was tho first road in tho world to uso an eight-wheeled ongine, and that engine was tho first eight wheeler ever constructed, and was devised by tho samo road's chief engineer. Although there were tram roads in America that are said to have ante dated the South Carolina, still it is doubtful if even that is tho case, for tho South Carolina Company ante dated by some years tho genuine railroad that was opened by that company January 15, 1830, and sev eral circumstances indicate that the company operated a tramway by torses and sails before thc locomo tive steam power was inaugurated in 1830. Certain it is that the work on ,his, the first real railroad in Amor ?a, was commenced in 1828. Although tramways had been in iso in England for a century or two, lothing niuch was accomplished until Stephenson opened up tho Manchcs .er and Liverpool Hail way in 1821), ntroducing thereon the steam loco not i ve. In his work entitled "Hailroads Their Origins and Problems," Mr. Charles Gran?is Adams says there is 'some reason for believing that the South Carolina Railroad was the irst constructed in any country with i definite pinn of operating it exclu sively by locomotive steam power." There is corroborative evidenco on .Iii? point, in thc memoirs of Horatio Mien: "lu September of 1829 Mr. Mien became tho chief engineer of he South Carolina Railroad, thc , sonstruCiion of which had then been ietcrmincd upon. On his recoin ncudation the gauge of the road was nade five feet. The road was com- . doted, and the cost was within his trigina! estimates, and when com peted it was the longest railroad in ho world. * * * At that early lato the South Carolina Railroad . Joinpany had to decide whether the colive power of the road should be torses or locomotives. In a report undo to the company in November, 82!), Mr. Allen presented an ent? nate of the cost of transportation by mise power and by the locomotive tower. The estimate of cost of . ocomotivo power was based on acts obtained on tho Stockton and tarlington Railroad (England). The J esult of that comparison was in avor of locomotive power, and the , South Carolina Company nucule 1 ho engineer's recommendation to iso that power. Hut that action was ?ascii, not on the experience of thc Cnglish road, but on the report of he engineer, who hold that in the . Ut tl rc there was 'no reason to expect iny material improvement in the . ?reed of horses, while, in my jtldg ncnt, the niau is not living who . CHOWS what the breed of locomotives viii place at command." This report was made to a full , ncc ting of tho board, and the deci tion for locomotives was unanimous. Cngincer Allen ways : "It was the irst action of this kind by any cor lorate body in thc world." Mr. Adams is authority for tho itatemcut that the South Carolina .cad was opened January If?, 1830, 'or ho says: "On the 16th of Janti iry, 1881, exactly four months after he final opening of the Manchester ind Liverpool road, the first anni /ersary of the South Carolina llail .oad was celeb.aled with due honor." As to the ii rsl engine used on this oad, Mr. Adams says: "A queer coking machii o, tho outline of which ,vas sufficient to provo that the in rcntor owed nothing to Stephenson, ind been constructed nt tho West l'oint Foundry Works in New York luring the summer of 1830-a first lite tn pt to supply that locomotive vhich the hoard had, with a sublime ionfldcnco in possibilities, unani nously voted on tho I 1th of thc pro soding .January should alone bo used ?ii tho road." The name of "Mest friend" was given to this very sim ile product of native genius. In lune, 1881, another locomotive, the ?West Point," arrived at Charleston. Vich?las W. Darrell, of Charleston, iiuehinist, was the first mau to open he throttle and run in thc "Mest Viond." This e ngine later exploded ier boiler.
