This, however, did not compare with the extreme cold of the North on that day. At Fort Fairfield, Maine, it was 42 degrees below tero, or 58 colder than in An derson.' It was a vary bitter day throughout tho whole country. Col. James A. Hoyt, Chairman of the Democratic party of thia County, will be in Anderson on Friday next, and will meet with thc Executive Committee on that day. A full meeting of the committee is earnestly desired, in order that all tho members may be informed upon public questions, and gu to work properly and vigorously in the cause of ro-orj.- alsation.

After Friday night the weather was intense ly cold, ar.d on Tuesday night a rain fell and fro?'.-, so that the surface of tho earth was "overed with Ice, which rendered loco motien dliScuit f'.?r pedestrians. 7t is now raining, and mud is tho order of tho day. Tho Carswell Institute will open its Spring session on the 21st of this month. This Institute is well known to our people, and has done a great work in the cause of a higher education among the masses of our citizens.

Mr. Byrum hos achieved the greatest success in this line of any ono we have beard of. On last Thursday night some thief at tempted to break into thc residence of Dr. M. C. Parker, at Honea Path, for the' pur pose of stealing, es it was known that tho Doctor keeps his moat in ono of the rooms of his house.

This is one of the most euoccsarbl and reliable Banks in the State, and the coeaouance of . the officers who have' iaade tho Bank so successful in the pott is * sufficient guaranty of Its continued prosperity. Messrs. Anuu^ & Rose, the proprietors or the New York Cash Store, have built up for themsftlvea one of the largest dry goods and notion tra?ts In the up-couniry, and by their energy and consideration for tha wonts of their customers the popularity ot their store and the amount of their basin ess is on the increase. They are progressive men, and have shewu that they kn. w the value of printer's Ink, and have not hegira* tod using it to invite (be public to call and purchase their wants from them. We nanxt to learn that Dr. J. T. Norris, a former resident or this piara, who bas . number of relatives and a great many friends in this County, died at hts residence in Newberry County, whither he removed about 1800, on Bunday, the 4tb Instant, ot consumption, with which he has boen a sufferer for a long time. Dr. Norris was s pleasant and intelligent gentleman, who made friends wherever he went. The an nouncement of his death will carry sorrow and regret to many of our 7 caders. Col. James Loug, a well-known citizen of the upper portion of Anderson County, died at his residence on last Thursday night after an illness of a few hours. During the day of Thursday he bad been up and going about, and wrote several letters, and felt aa well as usual, with the exception of a ver. bad cough, which, it is supposed, caused the eruptien of some blood vessel internally, thereby causing his sudden death, lils re mains were interred in the burying ground connected with Mt. Pisgah Church, in the presence of a large number of persons who had assembled to pay earth's last tribute to their departed neighbor. We would ask attention to the advertise ment of Messrs. F. W. Wcgener & Co., general commission merchants and whole sale grocers In Charleston, 8. C. These gentlemen are men of high character and fine b usines attainments, and have become very justly popular throughout the Stat?. This ls especially the case in the upcountry, for whose interest they have shown very great consideration. We bespeak for them a very liberal patronage, orid would remind our readers that they are the agouta in South Carolina for the popular State Grange fetlli ter. Messrs. McCully & Taylor aro their agents at this place for tho sale cf this for tiUser. For the past three months the citizens of Anderson have enjoyed very oxcellcnt ad vantages for securing photographs of them selves and friends. During this period the Art Gallery of Mr. J. D. Muxwell has estab lished a fine reputation in all the depart ments of photography, and the pictures taken there compare favorably with those of any gallery in the State. Captain Wren is beyond a question tho best artist in the up-country, and his patrons may confident ly rely upon receiving satisfactory pictures. We have seen quite a numbor ot the pic tures taken at this gallery, and can unhesi tatingly recommend it to the patronage of our readers.

C*H J a* a 1 ie!^L boring country church one of the finest Hermons we have er tr had the privilege of listening to-one of those efforts which "strike oil," and fohu epochs in one's1 church-going life. The occasion was naen., liariy interesting. The minister, after two years of laborious and Koaven-?**lcd min istry, had retired from the pastorate shoot twelve months since, and his place had been supplied by a worthy and excellent old brother, whose Labors, though earnest and devoted, were comparatively unfruitful. On yesterday tho former pastor, recalled by a largo vote, resumed his pastoral charge. The services were opened by calling for . ng-metre doxology, which was according jung ; but tho audience, In their aston isnmcut, forgot to rise. This was followed by a characteristic prayer, which was not addressed to the audience, and the text was announced, Eph. v : 10-"Redeeming the time because the days are evil." > By way of clearing the field, the speaker first told us what the text emphatically did not mean. That no audi idea as that time lost.tr misemployed could over be redeem? ed was intended to bo convoyed. That time once lost was lost forever. That ?-?eli day had its allotted and appropriate du.."es, its own work, its own sacrifices ; which could not be put off or delayed without encroach ing upon the appointed work of another day, and reducing life to a succession of j miserable failures. That the despairing cry of England's dying man, "millions of j money for an inch of time," was but the wall of remorse, for hours which were wast ed, for opportunities which had passed un heeded. He next explained the scriptural meaning of the word redeem to be precisely what its etymological construction would suggest, viz: buying back. Time is not only "the stuff that Ufo lo mado of," lt ls life itself, it is death. It is happiness or misery, pleasure or pain, success or failure, os we choose to make it. Moreover, time is not ours merely because we live in it-be cause wo occupy it or breathe its atmos phere ; but only as we seize upon and util izo it-9U it with good deeds, with noble actions and worthy sacrifices. Hu told with rare felicity tho story of the iearncd and la borious. Grotius, who adopted os his motto, ..vlik h he hung upon tho walls of his study, hora mit ; the meaning of which ls, tho hour rushes, and the moral Grotius must rush too to keep pace with the flying hours -to soire upon them and fill them with their appointed duties. The duties of tho hour wem briefly stated, and upon the divine injunction, "go ye into all the world," Ac, wc thought the speaker was particularly sound. Ho applied it, not to the clergy, but to every particular chris tian. Each of his christian hearers was equally called with himself to preach the gospel to the world's debased and sin enslaved millions. Ho who could not go or could not preach, could send some one in his plr.ee ; and this, we take it, i* 'M whole theory of misti?n work. Each sr vera class of his hearers was solemnly addressed, and earnestly exhorted to seize thc passing hour and fill it with the service of Grs?; and make cadi day fulfil Its mission in devslop Ing, rounding up and perfecting tho chris tian character. Ho addressed with affecting earnestness tho younger memBers of tho church-a largo number of whom he hod with his own band baptized and consecrated 1 to Christ -and during this part, of his dla course ho declared that tho answer, to the- ! first question in the shorter catechism, j "what is the chief end of man," embodied the grandest and noblest ide?, in the whole realm of human literature. Tho answer ls "To GLORIFY GOD AND TO ENJOY HIM FOB KVBB." Thu second clause of the text, "because tho days are evil," was then taken up, and the speaker appeared to find tho greater evil and danger to the church in the tact that tho times arc apparently too good-tho church enjoying too much case and sailing in too quiet waters. Rest relaxes tho mus cles while labor hardens and tones them ; aaversity refines and purifies iusn as fire tho gold ; aud opposition, so fur from destroy ing, only decurts to truth a certain triumph. The great danger that now threatens thu churcV of Christ is too much prosperity, and .ibovc. all too mudi popularity. Reli gion is too respectable, and it is too fash ionable to join the church. The effect of the effort!) now being made to build up Zion is to fill the church with a floodtide of dead-heads, who aro scarcely fit for the world much less thc church of God. '1 ho boundaries between the church aud tho world are becoming obliterated, practical piety is no longer necessary, vital godliness is almost a reproach, while wickedness abounds in high places, vice is rampant, immorality defiant, and Satan perpetually on the war-path. Even men who once oc cupied high places in tho '.burch are Illus trating the proverb of Peter : "The dog is turned to bis own vomit : gain, and the BOW that was washed to her wallowing in the mire." Men who sit by day around the table of the Lord arc found sitting by night around tho tables of the gambling hells and drinking snloons. To remedy this evil he feared that ?he church required tho disciplino of suffering und sorrow, the chastening of adversity, the purification <>f fire. He hod ncv?r felt it bis duty to pray ?or persecution, but if nothing else would purify and vitalize God's church -ii nothing else would arouse It from its fatal security-if by no other means the bride of Christ might be advanced and msde meet for his coming-then God send perse cution with all Us fearful resulU and terri ble consequences 1 Tho sermon closed with a masterly appli cation of its doctrines to tho circumstances surrounding us; and a most impressive and energetic exhortation. One of his illustra tions struck the writer as singularly appro priate-life bring compared to "tho ladder Jacob sa*?," which reaches up to Heaven and down tc Hdl ; and upon which each of us may climb up, round by round, even beyond the clouds which Intervene between us and the diy of our God; or down, step by step, to endless death and misery ; but upon that ladder is no resting place-not a round of it will offer us a halting-place to sit still and do nothing. It must oe either ascent or descent ; cither growth or retro gression. Il is of course impossible in such a sketch as ibis to do justice to the "thoughts that breathed and words that burned'" of this most impressive sermon. Language would fail to describe the emotions that pictured themselves In tt ? face and features cf thc Speaker, and wo only desire to furnish tc thom who heard the sermon a slight sketch which may serve to recall it In all ita fresh nesa and vigor.
