Col. Charles S. Matt ison oied at his resi dence seven afiles South of Anderson on last Friday morning, in the fifty-first year j of his age, after a protracted illness from Bright's diseaso of the kidneys. He had been suffering from thia disease for somo i four years or more, and during this period received all of the help which could bc rendered him by the ablest physicians, and though his condition at times slightly im proved, there was very little permanent change until lost Winter, during a visit to the. Atlanta Exposition, he was taken ill and did not recover from the attack, which finally terminated his life. Col. Mattison was one of the most useful and popular citizens of our County. Ho Wa- a man of large means, and was always liberal in conferring benefits and favors upon those around him who might from any cause stand deserving of his assistance. A more generous and v.oblo-heartcd citizen could not bo found, and those who knew him were his warm and devoted friends, willing to go to any length to servo or show their appreciation of him. This ren lered him always strong before thc people, and although he was frequently a candidato in politics and in tho military he was never defeated. In the old malitia service he was Colonel of the Fourth Regiment, and when the volunteer troops were ruiscd for ser vice, he went into tho war as Lieut.? Colonel of the famous Fourth Regiment, and t.-rved in that capacity uutil thc timo of service of that regimeut had expired, when he was elected Colonel of the Fourth Batallion in the reorganization which fol lowed. He served in this position until the battle of Seven Pines, at which ho was shot through the ehest and permanently disabled. Ho was a brave soldier and an efficient officer, fl.o.-oughly conscientiouj in the discharge of his duty, and in full and active sympathy with the cuuso of his country, lie was thrco times elected to the Logislaturo from this County : first in 1858, then in 18GG, and last in 1878, and after each of theso terms of servi e. al though very popular, he declined a re elec tion. In addition to this Col. Mattison wa? frequently elected as a delegate to the Stitt? and Congressional Conventions of ilu Democratic party. He was a mun of very fine practical judgment, and in every way worthy of the high confidence which wiu reposed iu him. In his death our County has lost a val unble citizen, his community a kind, gen erous und excellent neighbor. In his do mcstic relutions, Col. Mattison was as afiec tiouate and gentle os a woman. His wast social nature, which enjoyed company Just and upright himself, he had no suspi cion of other people. Ills sympathy fo all persons, however humble or from what ever cause they might be unfortunate, mad him the friend of those in every station o life, and no person that ever went to bin for assistance d 'parted empty handed. Iii deeds of benevolence were many and exton sive. Ile gave liberally wherever the wrnt of his fellowmen were brought to his alton tion. On Suturduv morning, after appropri?t services at. his residence by Rev. C. \ Barnes, his rcnia!"3 were placed to rest i the family burial ground with Masoni rite?, in the presence of large number of th neighbors and friends of the deceases gathered to witness thc last rites to one the admired and loved in life. In death h memory lingers to be cherished by all wli knew him and censured by none. N higher tribute could be paid to any man. THE UBIQUITY. A Sermon Preached br Ber. D. E. Friernon, D. I cr. Sssdt?, i'cbrssrr 15* 133:\ Psalms exxxix: 7, 8.-Whither shall I j from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee fro thy presence? If I ascend up into heave thou art there: if I make my bed in he behold thou art there. There are no subjects, my brethren, truly grand and important as the great the logical points of the Bible. Whether th relate to the being and attributes of God to thc conduct and Providence of God in t visible world, or to tho scheme of Redeni tion or the past history, present conditl and future prospects of man. How wondi ful is God. Solo Monarch of the Univers Uncreated, "without beginning of days end of years," without limit of power knowledge. Conceivable, yet incomprelu sible; invisible, yet imprinting a knowlec of himself upon every rational Leii Whatever the manifestations of Deity tn lie in other places and in other worlds, i impossible to b"< long in this world with< knowing that tuero is a God.

It is imprinted on the leaf; i impressed upon the stone; it is painted thc flower, and breathed by that flow fragrance; it is written on tho rainbow, i repeated by thc voice of thunder. All nat yields one grand unanimous testimony God. If I were called upon to give great striking argument for God, more min?os, moro convincing than all tho r I would point to you, my brother, as c taming within yourself in your wondc constitution tho most powerful of ai ments. How fearfully, how wonder! made !

Let us first endeavor to disabuse our n of all misconceptions of tho omniprc; and afterwards let us attend to the ir diate and practical interest which wo in tho subject. I The omnipresence is not exteii Matter only ls extended, and extended by the greater or smaller distance bet those invisible and unknown elci which compose its being.

My br< we aro in thc immediate presence nugost Jehovah this moment ond a monta of our being. 2. Tho omnipresence is not i ant for'that teaches that every visible tin form of Hod. au ; mau the nighest I God. This destroys tho pcrsonalu unity. This is Indeed atheism ??? 11 odious form. All Hint is nure, and noble, and honorable in our nature revolts nguinst it. 3. Tho omnipresence is not effected by wicked or disgusting places, 'if 1 inukc my bed in hell," says David, "behold thou art there." Hut I desire that you should contemplate the practical force of this subject : 1. God is nearer to us than any other being. Tho little babe reposing upon its mother's breast is not so near to her. Indeed, that babe is afar off from its mother -so far that she scarcely knows one of those thoughts and feelings which begin to spring within its mind, or ono of those sensations which begin to thrill its bodily frame. Whether it loves or hatea, rejoices or grieves, she scarcely knows. Its inner history isas mysterious to her os if it were millions of miles away. Hut God, whose formative hard adjusted our mysterious constitution, is in us and around us. God has beset us behind and before and laid his hand upon us. There is not a word on our tongue but io ! God knows it altogether. I may conceal many a secret thought, ludo immy a covert action from man, but not from God If I wnlk by thc way or retire to the lonely wil derness, God is there. If 1 repair to the busy streets, the marts of trade, and move through thronging multitudes pushing my difficult way among them, God is there and nearer to mc thero than any one of those who suriound rue. When I Ile down to rest and close my eyes in sleep I pass into un consciousness just under the all seeing eye of God; and when I nwake God'.i sleepless eye in looking upon mc still If I take the wings of the morning and Hy to the utter most parts of the sea. even there shall God's hand lead me, mid his right hand hold me. If I could mount lt beam of light and travel with the speed of li ;ht to the most distant fixed star, I would .ind God there before me. Space does not limit God, ?paco does not extend him. "God is note and God is here" are the awful philosophy of his being. ?! how shall I go from his spirit, or how sb.di I ilee from his presence? 2. How silent is God; so near me and so silent! How noisy is the world! The cat aract roars with deafening sound. Loud thunders rumble through the skies and jar the poles. Thc voices of birds ring in the air. Winds howl through the forest. Hut God is not heard. How silent is spirit and how noiseless is thought, the moving power of the world. And God is that moving power. Tho still, small voice that spcke.to Elijah was more potent than the sirong wind that rent tho rocks asunder. Ah ! it is not noise, but silence that has majesty and that conceals power. The great cotton fac tory with its roaring wheels, its rattling shuttles, its whirling spools, makes a deafen ing noise; it is the work of man and man is there controling it. Hut your own corpo real frame, my brother, moves upon its delicate hinges without r audiblo sound. How noiselessly your arm moves. Your sliest heaves mid your lungs perform their mysterious functions without being heard. Your blood courses through its circulation, md your heart beats time within you with i noiseless tread. It is tho work" of God, ind God is there moving it. How silent is vegetation, a world-wide force with its mil lions of atoms in incessant motion ! And yonder vast system of worlds, rolling in their orbits among one nnothcr, thc mighty Factory of God, is ns noiseless as the grave. Stand stilj in the stillest night and you hear nulling but the ringing of your cars. And yet God is there. My brethren, there is lometbing very awful in the silence of God. When card-players gather around their table n the dark hours of the night and lay their ?ragers down, and the bottle of intoxicating Irink stands hard by; when thc excitement vaxes warm and high, and profane ejacula ions clash upon tho stillness of the room, Jod is there a silent spectator of the scene, md that silence of Deity is dreadful. And When fretted by many losses, and infuriated >y many draughts of intoxicating spirits, lie murderer with fell intent raises his hand ind with n sudden explosion sends the leadly missile through tho heart of his fel ow man, God is there n s!,ent spectator of he scene. He sees that warm blood of bu llan lifo flowing. He hears that dying nroan, and tba? very silence and stillness of Deity says in n still small voice, "Every secret thing must bc brought into j mig nent." O! how dreadful is thc omnipresence ! Whatever I say, think ordo, is done in the inmediate presence of God. Every scrnr. .very spot, every cxperienco is invest'.d svith solemnity. When Jacob fled from his jrothcr Esau and slept along tho way, he irose in tho morning nnd exclaimed with lurnrise: "Surely tho Lord is in this place uni I knew it not." And he was afraid and jaid : "How dreadful is this place : This is none other than the house of God and the jato of heaven." And wc too often, like fncob, forget that God is here, i.-'-'t us forget t not, my brethren. Not that we should il ways qunil under the terrors of nu ever present Deity, or imagine that we lived under an awful cspionago which noted every word, every step. Of ail other sovereigns jiod is farthest from inspiring terror in Iiis :reatures. He never overawes. Hut let tho remembrance of an omnipresent God restrain as from tho inebriate's cup, the swearer's oath, the profligate's excess. This is none other than thc house of God, and this is thc ?ate of heaven where we live. Let ns not lie dissipated in God's presence. Let us not bc drunken in the presence of tho King' Let us not insult venerable majesty ' No; let us deport ourselves as becomes the chil dren and subjects of the King of kings. Then will the om ll i presence become to us a delightful theme. This is God's world, and thia is our Father's house. His parental love inspires lilia! confidence How nmiablo ire his tabernacles ! How beautiful J ilia fair world ! Surely holiness becometh this place, this house, this life and this world. Tho world where we are living is "none other than the house of God and thc gate of heav en." It opens into heaven-that is, we arc put out of it awhile until it is repaired; ami when it is repaired and wc are repaired, we re-occupy it forever. It is? none other than the house of God, where we are nearer to bim and know him better than in any place in tho universe, because it is lilted up ex pressly to suit our faculties and to reveal him to us. Tue most interesting feature of the omni presence is the presence of God. Adam never saw the bund that mado him. The Heing that stood fucc to fucc breathing the breath of life into him disappeared before ho opened his eyes upon existence. The hand that fashioned Eve was gone when ho awoke and snw his companion. When he hcurd thc voice of the Ixird God, calling-"Adam, where art thou?" he had, himself, retreated to a hiding place because he had binned. Sensible nearness to God mav be impossible. Moral nearness brings us and God into com munion. Christ is tho point of union. When God walked upon the earth again and called man he appeared in tho "likeness of man," so meek, so natural, so kind, BO brotherly that men were not afraid to go up to him, and become acquainted with him. It was Christ, thc Mediator, the second, thc best, thc last, revelation of God lo men, until he shall "come again in tho clouds of heaven wit!? power and ureat glory." Tho words of thc Psalm, "Whither shall I go from thy spirit, or whither shall I flee from thy presence,'- express adoration. The New testament words "Kabbi. Thou art tho Son of God. thou art thc King of Israel," express confiding love. The tenderest and most engaging aspect of Deity is Christ, the Kider Brother of the human family. The nearest and most solemn approach we mako to Jesusaud to God is thc communion lable, where faith feeds upon him -the bread of life; where love reposes in him-thc ever lasting Friend; where penitence melts under Iiis forgiving grace; where hope brightens with his communication and joy anticipates tho festival above. O ! how beautiful is Hint holy reserve, that silent reverence, that pro sound self-consciouaness with which christ ians approach the table of tho King ! and say by their actions: It is by thy own kind invitation, Great Redeemer, that I take lt upon nie to como so near to thee.
