During the past week a protracted iiecting has been carried on at the tiken Baptist Church, by the Rev. jieius Cuthbert pastor, assisted by he Rev. Mr.T M Gaiphin, of Orangi- ~r. Gaiphin has delivered a series admirable sermons,which have pro- ced a decided impression. Hi* rle is argumentative, discussing his 2ine witii logical precision, ami oc- fionaHy appealing to the emotions increase the effect produced by the ints made in the argument. Ilis •mous denote the work of an cur st man possessed of fine abilities, 10 clearly understands what he is out. Much interest has been maui- ted during the meeting, and three ung men were admitted as members the Church on Sunday last through 2 sacred ordinance of Baptism, ad- uistered by the pastor Rev. L.

Adi. of Vauclusc Item s> From our Regular Correspondent. VAUCDUSE, S. C., I Oct. 11, 1885. J - * Mr. T. H. Burns is the name our acceptable depot agent and not as you had it last week; Mrs. D. P. Johnson is the name of the lady from Charleston that is visiting Mrs. T. 11. Burns, and Mrs. Burns you re member is a daughter of Mr. F. W. Stoy. Some body in your office got things slightly mixed last week, and we have had the Vancluse critic after us ever since, and she gave us hail Columbia, from the very begin ning, why, she even said that we dated our Items November 4th, an 1 that we ought to have known that it was October 4th. But I doubt if our beautiful young friend knew that we did not have a dictionary to spell the dates of the month in. But we hope that she will excuse us, when she finds that the names aim dates got mixed up in the printing office. 1 tell you Mr. Editor she gave us such aTasping that we thought that we never would try to write you again, out then, we thought it best to get you to make the proper correction first, and besides she is as pretty as any tioiveryou ever saw, well, in fact those who know her call her the [jink,” and she can’t bear for things to go wrong, so we must thank her for no ping to keep tilings right. It inis been raining here all day and the wind has been blowing fearfully hard all day, from the northeast, and still the mill ponds are not full yet. The train killed four fine cows and one tine hog, here a few weeks ago, so Captain Boatwright from Columbia, came down very recently and paid up all danages like a gentleman. But last week it killed two fine dogs and one of them was a fine hound, we suppose that they will be paid for soon. Mrs. Edwin Rhoden, died here lu*t night from that slow disease eovV -ptiorr' we are told her remains will be filtered in the Vauclu. Ceme tery to-morrow. Her maiden name was Grj<?e, she has gone to meet her little children passed over tiie River only a short time ago, find we hope that her husband will be prepared to meet them in Heaven when his Mas ter says “Come.” twenty Six. Letter on Etlucution. White Pond, S. C., \ October 8th, ISSo.i' Editor Aiken Recorder: In my last letter, I allqded to our present system of education, as being sadly deficient. It is alarmingly de ficient and not only so, it is criminal ly deficient. When we look at the material prosperity qf our country and the vast amount of money that is being spent every year in the vari ous ways that men spend money, and compare thia with tiie two mills per dollar that is paid for educiffion, is it not a burning shame yea a crime in the face of high Heaven? Men plead hard times, as an excuse for not send ing their children to school. Many plead that they can’t spare their chil dren from the field. And what with one excuse and wiiat with arjother, (because of education iseiitirely neg lected, and children are growing up iuto manhood and woman-hood with out aii education sufficient tofittheni for any station in life above that of mere drudgery. Now, let me ask who are to be our men and women ? V*ho the fathers and niot.liers in this country? Who are to fill the places of honor and usefulness? Who are to fie our Legislators, our Governors ami Judges when the present gen eration has passed away? True there are some few communities that are manifesting seme ini crest in tins very important matter, but generally the two mill system prevails. While the average fanner puy* from $10 to $20 for his chewing tobacco; he pays, perhaps, from $2 to $4, or $G for the education of his children. “There is another evil I have seen under tiie sun.” It is this, parents are too hard to suit with teachers. One is too tight; he keeps Mary so hard at her lessons that the poor chiid is dis couraged, and I shall stop her from school. Another, the teacher whip ped John for nothing in the world, only because lie happened to well, there are so many of these happen so’s I will not name any of them. An other, the teacher is so tmht and re quires the lessons so strictly, and the children are getting so tired that I shall stop thorn. Again some teachers arc too “slack.” These with various other excuses are made up into flimsy coverings for avarice and indiffer ence. and tiie result is that four-fifths of the children are growing up with out an education. One only has to attend our public meetings of various characters, political, religious, or any other, to see how sadly education is needed by the present generation, and the next will be infinitely worse, if the education of the present genera tion of children lias to depend on the two mill system for their intellectual training. 'Three months in winter -will never educate.a hoy or girl, for the same thing hasHo be learned over every winter, until thev ar^ men and women turned out in the world with no education. White Pond.
