Fiom the annual report of the Secre
tary of the Bible Society of this County,
which wc publish in another coluun, it
appenrs that during the past year there
was, in tho words of the report, "but

Secretary's language, from which it
might (however uufairly) be tempora
rilyJuifexiXii that the application was
for the gratuitous distribution of seme
young and tender Sabbath School child,
and banishing front our mind forever 1
the horrible resulting inference there
from of a lapso toward cannibalism
in some remote, benighted and ungodly
portion of our County; Passing over
this slight dubiety, wc say, we find that
the fact of this single and only applica
tion fur a free copy of tho scriptures
Hflj !eud us to a result differing widely
i lxom cither and from each of tho con
clusiuus indicated by tho Socrctury iu
bis carefully digested report.
The Secretary considers that the fact
in question "leads to ouc of*two conclu
sions, namely, cur Ccus?y is well supplied
with the Bible, or the destituto have no
mean8 6f applying to the Society fur the
xoliof they need."
Wv would be glad, in thu interest of
the uhujrcb, to believe thut the Secretary's
alternative does, indeed, embrace all
the possibilities?we trust, siucercly, that
it coinprohonds all the probabilities?ol
the situation. But applying logical rules
to the facts ofjjgto case, aud considering,
with duo atflW^W> WUio ^ff rtho best
kuowo frailtie^anofporTersitieH of huiuaii
nature, wo are constrained to aay that
the Secretary hat failed to consider at
least ono other, to say the lets', possible,
cuuelatj:?? explanatory of the paucity of
applicants for gratuitous JJibles and
Testaments. I
And that conclusion?wc shudder as
wc write?is, simply, that for somo irre
ligious individuals even gratuitous
Bibles and TestauiotitH hate, precisely,
?no charm whatever.

OUR CANDIDATES.
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.

From tho ago of 10 t? 21 he was 1

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:

In closing this report 1 would urge
upon our friends the importance of this
cause, and remind them, that as yet,!
none have renewed their membership,
aud request that they will embrace the
opportunity tint w II be offered this
evening.
It may pcrhnns b- inter si in-' '?? ?'? ?

The griuftjtous work of the Society
for the year amounted in value to 8242,

The distribution of tho Scriptures in
tho U. S. during tho year, as far as re
