A Most Noble Work?A Visit There and What the Visitors Saw. Editors Intelligencer: ?Last week, after a space of almost a year, we made a second visit to the Epworth Orphanage, which is, as was stated in a previous letter, located about' a mile east of Columbia, near Cramer's Ferry road. From the Orphanage buildings, on account of the high elevation of the place, one can see far into Lexing ton, and, perhaps, into Orangeburg Counties. In front of the three main buildings there is a beautiful grove of hickory, cedar and oak. The yards are level and are covered with sand and grass?no red mud to soil the clothes of the fifty odd neat little or phan children who are so well cared for and who are so well contented in their new home. During the week days the children are taught the rudiments of an educa tion by two excellent and experienced teachers?Mrs. Julia P. Price, of Orangeburg County, and Miss Eleanor Thompson, of Suinter County, and regularly attend Sunday School. Mrs. E. J. Black, of Vaughnsvillc, has charge of the dining room, sewing department. Mrs. F. H. Spivcy, of Williamsburg County, is the matron Por the hoys, and Miss Lizzie (lasque. )f Marion County, is 'matron for the rjrls. Miss Sunie Anderson, of Ab seville County, has charge of the culi lary department. Since our last visit fche well con structed and commodious barn has )een burned, together with provender, ;ools and stock, and rebuilt. The Plumer system of water works has >een placed and carries water to the hree main buildings, the superintend nt's residence, the boys' home, the ;irls' home, which is a twelve-room irick building recently completed. Vater is also conveyed to the two tory laundry building, which is a reat blessing to the children, as it onsiderably lessens their labors. Mr. W. 0. Animons, of Marion ?ounty, who has done so much faith ? work in his line for the orphanage, employed as carpenter, and Mr. W. '. Walker, of Camden, an experienced rintcr, is employed in the printing epartment. where the Epworth Or banage lircorrf is printed monthly, asides the job work that comes in om all parts of'the country. Mr. James Simpson, of Chester, has mrge of the farm work. An orchard and a vineyard, which ill. from time to time, be enlarged, is already been commenced. Ample arrangements are being made r raising poultry. There are no idlers about the Ep )rth[Orphanage.

The annual meeting of the ''Old Stone Church Association." formed for the fpurposc of fencing' -and im proving the cemetery grounds at the Old Stone Church, met at that place on Saturday last. The weather was delightful and the attendance very large. Quite a number of; persons present were unable to gain admission to the church for want of room. Dr. J. B. Adger, bowed downowith age and infirmity, was .present ; so, also, Tvere Dr. W. B. Cherry?and Mr W. W. Knight, both of whom! .were more than eighty years of age. Col. J. Adger Smythe, of Charleston, came over from his summer home, near Pendleton. with Dr. Boggs. Dr. 0. M. Doyle. President of the Association, called the meeting to order. Prayer was made by Bcv. P. Keid, of Pendleton. The President introduced the orator of the day. Rev W. E. Boggs. D. D., Chancellor of the University of G eorgia, most'fittingly recounting his services - as Chaplain luring the war, especially his devotion to the sick and wounded at Frazier's [''arm, one of the great battles fought 'around" Richmond in 18(32; and also lis faithful services during his pasto rate at Memphis, Tenn., when the rellow fever prevailed at thatjplace ?orne years ago. We may be pardoned for adding, bat Dr. Boggs has always -been re ;arded as a South, Carolinian. He ras, however, born abroad during the aissionary services of his fatter. Rev. ireo. W. Boggs. Dr. Boggs has teadily ascended the ladder of fame, nd now occupies one df the most im portant positions in our sister State, rhere he maintains himself most suc- ^ essfully as a teacher and as the chief ^ lecutive officer of one of the finest istitutions in th? South. The subject discussed by the distin uished speaker was the^relation of s le science of geology, geography, &c, 1 ) the Bible. The-theme, as treated, as interesting and a revelation to lany. . The address was lengthy aud c could not do it justice in a casual otice like this. A copy was asked ?r publication and we hope to have io pleasure of reading it $t our lcis :e ere long. A collection was taken up for the Tthcrance of the objects of the - .. i is ssoeiution. The Association took a recess for 1 ic hour. This time was pleasantly ent iu enjoying the pie nie side of e entertainment. The meeting reassembled in the lurch. The present officers of the'Associa in were re-elected. A committee of three, including the esident of the Association, was ap inted to inaugurate a scheme for icing the cemetery and improving 2 grounds. Since the meeting was held Mrs. arren Davis, a relative of the Reese nily. has received a liberal contri tion from Judge Reese, of ^Vashing i, Ga., for the contemplated im ?vements at the Old Stone Church.

We clip the following paragraphs from the Dover (Ky.) News of the 7th inst : President Kirhy and (?eneral Man ager Boonc will be in Dover to-day (Thursday.) Three surveying corps are now at work laying out the Black Diamond Railway System through Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana. All the corporations comprising the main line of the Black Diamond will end with "Tidewater" and all branch lines will end with "South Atlantic." Gen. Williams at the next meeting of the several Black Diamond Boards of Directors will be named by Col. Boone as General Counsel. The ap pointment will be confirmed because whatever "Col.. Boone suggests goes through with a whirl. '' The Engineers on the Springfield, Ohio River and South Atlantic Rail way (Vincennes, Ind., to the Ohio River at or near Jeflersonville, Ind.) starts into - work at A'incennes. Ind., on 3Ionday, Oct. 11. Col.-Boone will be present at the driving of the first stake. The'Ohio River will be bridged at Dover and Yevay, Ind., by the Black Diamond System of Railways. Con gress will be asked early in December to pass the necessary resolutions permitting their construction. Gen. Williams will take charge of getting the authorization and to do so will take up his residence after December 1st in Washington, D. C. The main line of the Black Dia mond across the State of Kentucky will be chartered as The Ohio River, uynthiana and Tidewater Railway Company. The corps of engineers )rganized at Dover, Ky., has been )rdered to run the main-line between Dynthiana and the Ohio River. It low looks like the Ohio River will bt iridged at \revay, Ind., for the line to Indianapolis and, South Western indiana. We have seen many corporations landled but we must confess we never aw a man like Col. Boone who picks ip the reins and1-drives through all pposition. Every Director feels safe espousing any plan Col. Boone sug ests. Why? Because Col. Boone s playing to win and knows just what ?ust be dor e to succeed. Col. Boone ever suggests anything unless it is Dr the welfare of the corporation hose interest he is seeking to ad ance. Mr. William Kirby, of Toledo, who ; president of all the Black Diamond mtes north of the Ohio River, has een for years' Railroad Commissioner 'Ohio, has been for along time in ose touch with all the railroad people : the country, and is probably the ist informed man on railroad matters i-day in America.
