On hist Monday afternoon at about san down, Mr. Drury Snij>of?, an old man of about seventy years of age, while returning home and walking uinm the public road in front of the r?sidence of Gol. K. M. H?cker, was tun ot v. mid ttha??? in?iM%?jt?y i.,ii by some hersciuan who was riding in a full run. Mr. Willie Archer, two of Mr. Snipes' little grandsons, and a colored mun, were witnesses of tho terrible tragedy, but none of them knew the man who caused the death. Mr. Snipes' hfad was bailly bruise?! in front, and the skull was broken in the back so tiiat he immediately fell to the ground and expired without uttering a word. The unknown rider reined in his horse and rode bark to the pluce where Mr Snipes was lying, whereupon Mr. Ar cher said to him, "You have killed that old man," and without saying n word he rode off in u lope. Coronor Herrick sum moned a jury and held un inquest, at which the testimony of thc witnesses were taken, and from the evidence Mr. Aaron ('.San ders, of the Fork, wus sent for, hut proved au alibi st? clearly and conclusively that he was immediately discharged. There is nt present no clue to the person who commit ted this deed, and from Iiis secreting him self from the knowledge of the public, sen timent is strongly in favor of ferreting the matter out and rigorously prosecuting the case. No doubt thc rider had been drink ing, and was inexcusably reckless on this occasion. _ Kxumi tuition of Public School Teachers. The examination of teachers for the pub lic schools this year hits been conducted by the Hoard of County Examiners, und out of some sixty applicant? forty odd have stood successful examination and received certificates tumbling them to touch first grade schools. As some persons may not understand the principle upon which this examination is conducted it muy bc well to state that Hie County Examiners have nothing to do with the questions nor thc values assigned to them. This is done by the State Superintendent of Education, and tho same questions are Bent to every County in the State. To each of these questions the State Superintendent assigns its value, and all that the County Examiners ha vi to do is to see if thc questions arc answ eil correctly. If the applicant answers more thun eight-tenths (we believe it is) of the questions properly, he passes, but not other wise. The present County Hoard has been efficient und faithful, yet lenient, in thc dis charge of their duties, und we take thc lib erty of suggesting to any persons who have not obtained certiticates thai they should not be discouraged. Dy procuring a set of the new text books and studying up they will be ublc to succeed on the next examination. Kev. I'.oVcrt Hin;;. This aged aud excellent Christian minis ter, whose death it was our sad duty to Baptist ministers of this portion of South Carolina, and as such wus woll known in this portion of the State, not only to his own denomination, but to the people geu erully. Ile wus born in this County on thc 1st day of January, 1791, and upon reaching carly manhood determined to try his for tunes in a new country, and accordingly re moved to the State of Tennessee, where he was converted to Christianity in 1809, and baptized as a member of thc Uaptist faith by Dev. Daniel White of that State. He thereupon returned to this County, married in April, 1811, und permanently settled here, joining tho Neal's Creek Baptist Church. In May, 1828, he wus ordained by his Church to preach the Gospel, the pres bytery consisting of Elders Moses Holland, Sandford Yandiver and James Durriss, to gether with Mr. Aaron Wilhon, a lay member. He raised a family of twelve sons and daughters, all of whom are members of tho Church of the same faith as their father, and aro upright and exemplary men and women, making useful and respected citizens iu thc various walks of life in which they ure engaged. Mr. King was in the ministry near fifty-one years, preaching his lust sermon ut Helton in March, 1378. lie was then very feeble, and his patriarch ial words from thc text, "stand still and sec the salvation of thc Lord," were listened to With much interest and reverence. As has ulrcady been suid, he died on thc l?t duy of Juuuary, 1879, being on thut duy eighty eight years old. Mr. King was a kinu and amiable gentleman, without a collegiate ed ucation, but possessed of strong mental power und sound judgment. Ho wus a pure mun and un curliest minister, whose lung lifo has been devoted to the effort to benefit mankind. On last Thursday the remains of the deceased were, interred in Neal's Creek Church Yard, in the presence of u large concourse of people, after eloquent and solemn funeral services by Revs. J. S. Murray and W. P. Martin. Turnips. Recently Mr. J. C. Keys sent Judge L.

Knrly History of ltruadaway Church. to the Presbyterians mid many others scat tered all over the County, to review with us a portion of the early history of Uroadaway Presbyterian Church, and in order to pro voke a discussion among those who may be well informed, to the end that the Church may obtain a better history of the primitive churches of tina denomination, I hereby make this proposition : that Broadaway Presbyterian Church is thc first of that de nomination founded in thc upper division of this State, or, ns usually stated, upper South Carolina. According to thc testimony of the Rev. Hugh Wilson, handed down to us by the Kev. William Curlisie, now living ut Ander son C. H., and about 87 years of age. Broad awny Church wus located in thc year 17 '7, near Neal's Creek, seven miles southeast of Anderson C. H., by the Kev. Robert McLin or Rev. Mr. GitUlaud. The first elders were Rob't Telford, the grandfather of Rev. Wm. Telford, of Florida, Capt. John War nock, an officer in the Revolutionary War, and Rob't Dowdle. Capt. Rob't Willis was Clerk of the Church, and perhaps an elder. The families constituting this Church ut first were tho Warnocks, Erskines, Telfords, DobhhiBcs, Thompsons, Todd?, Drowns, and others. The Church wan supplied from it.? organ ization up to 1K01 for the most part by Revs. McLin ami Gillilnnd. Rev. William Ii. Burr, D. D., of Abbeville, served the Church for sometime, aflcr which thc Church was served by the Rev. Richard B. Cuter up to ubout 1810, und perhaps longer ; and from 1810 to 1829 by the Rev. Aaron Foster, Anthony W. Ross and David Humphreys, from 1829 to 1858 by thc Rev. William Carlisle, wdio preached his first lennon to thisi Church on thc first Sabbath in May, 1829. This Church was removed to Helton in 1852. Since 1S58 the Church has hud but littlo supply, and for several years passed none; and the question here arises, Will Presbytery allow this common mother to go down, or will she do something to resus citato her? As Virginia is tho mother oi States, so Broadaway, in this section, is the mother of Churches. At this time she has but a mere handful of members, but one elder, Thomas Erskine, and he is about 71 years of agc. Will our Baptist brethren tell us whether Neal's Creek Church is not thc oiucst, or nearly so, of that denomination in upper Soutli Carolina. This Church and Broada way wera both located in thc same neigh borhood. Broaduway Church was located before the South Carolina Presbytery was formed. M. Club Meeting*.

MolANFS CELEBRATED * LIVER FILLS, FOR THE CURE OF j Hepatitis, or Liver Complaint, DYSHPSIA AliD SICK USADACHS. Symptoms of a Diseased Liver. PAIN in the right side, under the , edge of the ribs, increases on pres sure; sometimes the pain is in the left side; ?he patient is rarely able to lie on the left side ; sometimes the pain is felt under the shoulder blade, and it frequently extends to the top of the shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in the arm. The stomach is affected with loss of appe tite and sickness ; the bowels in gen eral are costive, sometimes alternative with lax; the head is troubled with pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy sensation in the back part. There is generally a considerable loss of mem ory, accompanied with a painful sen sation of having left undone Gome thing which ought to have been done. A slight, dry cough is sometimes an ' attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility; he is easily , startled, his feet are cold or burning, and he complains of a prickly sensa tion of the skin ; his spirits are low; and although he is satisfied that exer cise would bc beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely summon up fortitude enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts every remedy. Several of the above symptoms attend the disease, but cases have occurred where few of them ex isted, yet examination of the body, after death, has shown the LIVER to have been extensively deranged. AGUE AND FEVER. DR. C. MCLANE'S LIVER PILLS, IN CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when taken with Quinine, are productive of the most happy resulti. No better cathartic can be used, preparatory to, or after taking Quinine. We would advise all who are afflicted with this disease to give them a FAIR TRIAL. For all bilious derangements, and as a simple purgative, they are unequaled. DE WAKE OF I SI ITATIOK3. The genuine are never sugar coated.
