General Graut was born in Ohio, in 1822, and is consequently in the f.ftieth year . of his age. lie graduated ut the National Military Academy at West l'oint, in 1843. He entered the Mexi can war as a second lieutenant., and was promoted to the rartk of first lieutenant, for gullaT? and meritorious services at the battlo of Chapuhepcc. He was also quarter-master. Ho was made captain iu 1853. Resigning his comtiiissnh, ho retired to private life, till the break ing out of the war. He thcu raised a regiment of volun teers, and was commissioned as ooloucl. His history ns a'soldier is familiar to all. He steadily rns';; ; till all the Federal armies we/o pTtocd under his command, and he was Universally recog nized as tho first military man of the age?the soldier, who of all others, coat bincd the elements of a great au J sue ocssful General. It was but natural that tho gratitude of the nation, for his military prowjsa. in crushing the insurgent hosts of the rebellion, should mako them desire to see him President of the Republic he had saved. Nothing succeeds like suc cess. He had shown himself equal to every thing he had undertaken. No task seemed too great ; no obstacle too difficult for him to overcome. Despite all tho calumnies that his jealous and ambitious enemies have cast upon lti.it, the expectations of the people have been more than realized. The soldier became a statesman as by intuition, nnd unex ampled success bus attended his admin istration. The debt has been diminished at the rate of nearly 5100,000,000 a year. Corruption, tint old inheritance of the Democratic party,?and not CO.u \ pletcly eradicated during the turbulent scenes of war,?hu3 been ferreted out* and punithed. The difficulties of re oorst ruction, with all its trying and delicate dotuil, hare been successfully carried forward ; Bp that prosperity has followed generul disaster ; peace and security now reign where violence and uiurdcr abounded ; ti e worst passions of men have been soothed, and the people have como to justly believe in their hearts, that, dtspite the aspersions and calumnies of political demagogues, Grant is the most kindly disposed to wards the South of any man iu the na tion. Tho country believes this; the best portion of the Southern people believe it. libs ability, his patriotism, 1 his success, ate unquestioned ; and the country feels that as tho man best lilted for the Presidency of the Republic lor the next term, Grant Stands pre-eminent above all other citizens, and all of our statesmen, although we have many whoso names will illu nine the pages ol history for all coming time. Hon. Henry Wilson. U. S. Senator from Ma^sachussets, was nominated for Vice President on the liist ballot, re ceding C'8'll votes to 321 i votes for Col fax.

Columbia CniOli, 1th instant. ? - I.? ' [COMMUNICATED.] Annual Meeting of (ho Orangeburg Bible Society. TheOrangoburg County Bible Society held its second annual meeting last Sabbath evening in the Baptist Church at this place. Tho meeting was called to order at 81 o'clock, by Provident llcv. V. Auld. Upon his taking the chair, the hymn "Bock of Ages,"'was sung by tho congregation* The meeting was then opened with prnyor, by Vice-Prcsi deut Ucv. J. 1). A. Brown, after which the hymn "L.t everlasting Glories Crown,"?was sung, the minutes of the last meeting read and coufirtned Tho following Annual report of the Society was then read: OltANaCBURO S. C. May 31st 1372. To the. Oj/ic rs ami Members of the Oran^eburg County Bible Society : In presenting this my second annual | report, for the past year. I feel that uot i as much work has been duue, as the commencement of the year give u-1 reason to hope for, and the interest in the Society has not been as great as it ought to have been. During the whole year there Ins bjon but one application for a gratuitous disti ibution, and that was lor a Sunday School Scholar. This fact leads to one of two conclusions, namely our County is well supplMD with the Bible, or tho destitute have no means ol applying to this Society, for the supply tbey need. Il the former is the ease, wo have great reason to be thankful, while if those in need, have no means of reaching this Society, some steps should bo taken tu find th( :u < ut. that they may have their wants supplied, and I would request that every member of this Society, seek out all cases of need, and report the fact to the Deposi tar an, in order that those who have uo Bibles and no money to purchase, may receive Scriptures -'without money and w ithuut price." Another fact I would call the atten tion of the Society to : Not one of our Churches outside of . ur town have nt ul| identified them, selves with this Society. This in a great measure restricts the usefulness of our Society, and I would suggest to the Executive Committee, that they luok in to the matt r, and ad pt S nie plan, by w hich the ntteution of the Churches throughout the County may bo 1 rough) to the importance of this work. Wc have but one assistant in the County, whilo macy more should be employed in the interests of this good work. It is encouraging however to state that, the existence of our Society is be coming rar.ro generally known, and. 1 havo reason to know, that it h is ai led several of our Count)- Sun lay Schools very materially. Muah yet remains to be duue. More liberality, appreciation of tho Bible, and its importance to the. j County is needed ; hearty co-operation, \ faith, prayer and work, with the bless- ! int? of our Divine Master, and the Hilde j cause in Orangeburg County will ex rl a greater influence. As your Treasurer 1 submit the following statomcnt: Cash on hand at last Annivcrsay | meeting ,;). Becivod from collection ut last Anni-. vorsary meeting $10 91. Subscription $1.00.

During tbe 50 years of its existence th? Society has issued 28,780:909 vol umes. During the past year it has issued 1,231.352. These arc printed in about GO differ C*nt languages. There aro over 2000 Auxiliary Socio ties connected with the institution, nud these have over 5,000 Brunch Societies. The griuftjtous work of the Society for the year amounted in value to 8242, 727. The distribution of tho Scriptures in tho U. S. during tho year, as far as re ported, is shown by tho following : Number of fannies visited 503,001. Found destitute of the Hible, 73,732. Destitute families supplied, 41,459. Individuals in addition 17,301. Sabbath and other schools supplied 1,835. The number of volumes sent to this statcduring 1871, was 11,531.
