IS THE END APPROAtHING .ome Thou:hts SuaIested by this Solemn in. quiry. In an Cditorial, son weeks since, one sentence reads thus: "Our belief is that our work!'s history is near the end." TIUE DAILY (Celumibia) Ihcono quotes that sutttn.e, and seems to think that a great 1nmy-gogod people iiy be, unreasonably disturbed by suCh declaat "on. aInd that they "would like to'know what reasons we have for entertaining such a belief. To this the editor of Tin-: Ricono adds his own wish iSt we "ouM give tile public the benefit of whatever infornattion we may have onl the subjet.

We fix no hour. no day, nor year. Only the study of God's w(.rd-anat the driftig signs of the times lead us to the belief that the world is approaching a unparalleled crisis. Whether that crisis .'ill be the end of the world or something else time wfll show. Some persums teach that certain thngs are yet to taike.place before the eoing of Christ, which things we are persuaded have idready taken place. For instance: "Ask of me. and I shail thee the heathen for thine inheritance ft ~he utteimost' parts of the earth for tlr possession.* Ps.-8ii: '. This was. cer l-fuIIed in the coronation of the Son'wh all power was given unto himl iwJieaven and in earth. -In many parts of ie earth,not eKeluding parts of "Christen -theii rr millions of people who Wilf Tib veiin o rule over them.

CoLr.A., S. C., January 17. 1887. : ERrot,oF RECoRD: In reply to Mr. B. Y.A.aid:many others whose inquiries in regard to-the pecan tree you have referred time to ansJwr, Lthink the following will abiAcover the ground in a general way: Hmwprapagated? By planting the nut therdinzy p'can nut of commerce-and ~ grfting. They grow read ,-bilt, owing to the depre da ' of-'tlie wood rat, it is almost impos si ~oa standt besides the trees would bet afnp. rot 'to viem thick shelled nusff poorzipalitv and of little or no val.s Nusery rees that have been se lect from thi. best, largest aid earliest beaz'gvarieties can be transplanted about as sitcessfnlly as any fruit tree of the same a id can 1.e proetu-ed at a'very mod gare. dofeowa? The tree is of the same genius asik c ynd will flourish any where the ry grows. Thcy will thrive in -ota*oIwith little attention, but mt~ettr'-~uls will be obtained when ' inia* sol amd well eultivaited and manich. bottoms, if not too wet. are gzcIet; but several trees noted for thejgigege and immense erops of fine nusre growing in elevated places and hauveeeired very little care. W&i1 tky qrow in this chnvie ? Mr. W: B. Menes. in an article to .the American~ Aussutrisf says: "~We recommend the' culiure of tis- tree very highly, as being lik 1~oprove profitable from the Potomac an~b1Qx~yrssouthward." The few that haj$beultivated in this State and Geor gia-ie fag upiloi- to all others, and are sol &"facyprices " ~Iitprofteable?3Mr. A. C. Daniel., of CrvlrG. says he has a row of tees at thIba1ekf-f his garden, from the largest of w~ieh he gathered "eleven bushels and one peck 'of nuts," which he "sold in Atheasfor $45"-just $45 more than the ayeggfaner makes on an acre of cotton Api-prices. Mr. V. 3Iunson, of IDennison, Texas, -say v'aluci "well-grown trees of good kid 10 years old, at $25i. An acre (45) ofsneh trees would be worth $1,200)." There are fine specimens of the tree growing in almost all the Sonthern States, from Virginia to Texas., which frequently bear lifteen bushels of 1ine nuts per tree. and as theyv sell .readily at from $3~ to t$5 a bushel, the net income from a single tree is often more than f.2j several acres of ordi nary farm products. If the fatrmers only understood its merits, in a few years pecan groves would be as popular and ptrolltale m-this State as orange groves now are in Florida. I will cheerfully reply to any one seeking infrmation by letter. / 1-R. E. Sumists. Pensions ror .Mle!ean 1eteran<'.
