Let us have Base ball by all means and keep up with the times. — At a meeting of the Aiken Amuse ment Association on last Friday .evening, it was decided to give a series of Dime Readings at private residences for the benefit of the association. Preparations are being made, however, for the ren dition of another play in the Lyceum Hall. These entertainments are great ly enjoyed by our society people, and we are glad to see that the club is meetiOK with great mers. And the ladies were just brim ming over with good cheer. Lemonade and probably some other maters were discussed until the din ner hour, when without a single de mur so far as it was known to this scribe, all went to discuss the freight of the spacious tables prepared in the grove. And such a table, covered from one end to the other with all S ri$ofgood eating, and then came 6 “barbecue” part and plenty of it well prepared, and in just such style as George Moseley who was appoint ed chief cook knows so well how to put up, and George excelled him self to-day. Ample justice was done to the ample supply of provisions, and when all had eaten; the fragments were gathered into sundry baskets and boxes for future reference. Every body seemed to try to excell every body else in making everybody enjoy to the largest extent the enjoyable oc casion, and I think everybody- suc ceeded to the full extent oftbeir de sires and expectations. The after noon was most agreeably spent by all, especially the young folk, and at a late hour the festive party “broke up” every one going his and her own way. Thus was spent one day of pleasant recreation aad pleasurable enjoyment. We had the pleasure too of the company of Mr. West, of Gran- iteville, who is a candidate for County Commissioner. Mr. West made a verv favorable impression in our com munity I think, but before this has reached your many readers the die will have been cast, and some one will be left. There were no other candidates on the ground to-day, and so we came off with very little coat sleeve pulling. School Commissioner Harley came on the 6 p. m. train, but was too late to see “many voters.” Even our neighbor Capt. Bush was absent al though the picnic was at his door, I suppose the Captain is pressing his suit in other parts. After several attempts to change the time of meeting of our Suuday-School here. Onq of which was succesfulyet not satisfactory, we have settled back rning hour. D. Peacock has been in a meeting with one of his 't. Beulah this week.

From Our Regular Correspondent. Vaucluse, 8. C., ) July 11,1886.1 We have two sad deaths to chroni cle. The first is that of Mr. Wm. Turner, which occured ou the 12th of this mouth in Vaucluse about three o’clock p. m. The funeral was preach ed the following afternoon at the resi dence by Rev. W. D. Horton and his remains were followed by a large number of relatives antf friends to the Hatcher hurrying ground, about three miles from Vaucluse. The deceased was a brother of Hon. G. W. Turner and was about eighty years of age and a member of the Baptist Church, a good citizen, a kind father and loving husband. He leaves a wife and sev eral children, brothers and sisters to morn his loss. The other death was that of Master Richard Turner, which occurred last Sunday evening about six o’clock. Richard was the eldest son of Mr. W. A. Turner and a smart youn^ man. His remains were carried to Rockey Creek Church iu Edgefield County near his former home. The families of tha deceased have the deepest sym pathy of our community. On the 15th of this month Rev. J. L. Tillman assisted by Rev. W. H. Wro- ton, Mr. Charlie Tillman and Mr. A. W. Brooker began a three days union meeting in the Vaucluse Baptist Church, but when the three days was out, several had joined and so much interest manifested, that the good brothers thought best to continue the meeting, so the meeting has been progressing finely ever since and as the congregation soon grew too large for the church building. Brother Tillman went to Augusta and procured a very large teut made for the purpose and had it erected near our depot where he is holding one service in the morn ing and one at night to large and still increasing congregations. During the past few days, Mr. George Hancock of Augusta (a recent convert) came over to work in this great cause and has proven himself a faithful worker. By special invitation Miss Hallie Davis, now of Augusta, came over yesterday evening to assist iu this holy work, and her coming bas already done an untold amount of good, for Miss Davis is not only a highly cultivated, accomplished and Christian young lady, but she has consecrated herself to God, and is peculiarly adapted to this kind of work, for she is not only pleasing iu her appearance, but she is very timid, and speaks and prays in public only when requested to do so and then her manner is easy and attractive and certainly has the desired affect. She sings in a clear and musical tone, but with the feelings that a Christian should have, when singing the praises of our Savior. Brother J. L. Tillman is beyond a doubt the greatest revivalist who ever passed through this country and this meeting surpasses anything of the kind that the oldest inhabitants of Vauciuse ever saw, in fact there is at least one hundred people in and around Vaucluse that are seeking the Lord. Besides those who have been converted. The general opinion is that the superior singing lead and conducted by Mr. Charlie Tillman who is also the organist does as much good as the fine serinorusof his father. Charlie is a good young man and is a great help to h!» father in this great work. And then there is Brother time the Brooker who is one of t!;e most faith- Congress, ful Ited Brandi Items. From Our Regular Correspondent. Red Branch, Aiken, 8. C., ) July 22nd, 1886.) The crops in this part of the coun try are looking very badly, there will scarcely he enough cotton made to pay for the guano that was put under it. Crops are very grassy, some have been ploughing their corn since the rain ceased. There is a groat deal said about a Baptist church being constituted at Red Branch in a very short lime, and then there will be a sehureh house built there. —llrv. A. ~5 > ofie" Ndrns is going to preach at Red Branch Academy the night of the fourth of August. At early candle light the people of this part of the country will be glad to see him again. I wrote last week but failed to get it to your office, aud now I must tell about our Sunday-school, on the 17th of July, we were visited by our friends Rev. J. D. Peacock, O. C. Jor dan aud D. H. Wise; Mr. Peacock gave us an interesting little talk; Mr. Jordan gave us a few words of encour agement, he praised the singing of our school, he seemed surprised to find (on his first visit to this place) such a very large congregation, about 116 were present. The following gentle men have been elected by our Sundaj 7 - school, as delegates to the Union Sunday-School Convention: Messrs. T. Taylor, A- W. Cushman, J. J. Brown, Sr., H. C. Barton, H. M. Jones. Our secretary in his communication to your paper, a few weeks ago, failed to mention the names of Mr. Robert Wright who visited us last Fall and promised to come again, but he lied in a very short time; P. A. Emanuel visited us about four years ago, both of these gentlemen gave words of cheer not to be forgotten by the workers in this school. Red Branch. Cowden Items.
