WEDRZDAT, C0O3fl 28, 1891,
The political warfare in New York I
and Ohio is being waged with great a
fierceness. Both parties are confi
dent of success.
The Charleston political muddle
has at last been settled by a primary
which resulted in a victory for the re
formers, but now the hydra-headed
monster called the Republican party
is beginning to show signs of life,
and the Democracy of that city may
be called upon to stamp it out of ex
istence, which by united action they
can easily do.
One of the most acceptable and op
portune books recently published is a
school history of South Carolina, by
John L. Weber, school commissioner
of Charleston county and one of the
editors of the News and Courier.
The history is a small work, and is
suitable for schools of any grade. It
is written in an easy and entertain -
ing style, and contains a vast amount
of information. A copy of this excel
lent little work should be in every
home in the State. The Manning
Academy has already ordered a sup
ply and we presume all the other
schools in the county will use it. The
book is neatly and substantially bound
in cloth, and costs only about fifty
cents.
The idea that has been inculcated
on the colored people by their politi
cal leaders that a colored man can
get no showing in the courts of South
Carolina was proven false in the re
cent term of court at this place. The
case, fully reported in another part of
the paper, was one in which a white
man made a will and by it bequeath
ed valuable real estate to his two ille
gitimate colored children. The white
relatives of the testator contested the
will, and the case was tried by a jury
composed entirely of white men. The
verdict was in favor of the colored
men. This verdict has a moral which
the colored people should not forget,
as it shows them that their race hasi
equal rights before the law with tte
white race, and to make good citizens
they must, when they have griev
ances, resort to law rather than to
lawlessness and crime.
(Sumter Preema, Oct. 27.)
The Synod of South Carolina.
The opening sermon of Synod was
preached by the Rev. Dr. English, of i
York. He was the last moderator
present, the Rev. Dr. DuBose being
absent in China, and therefore he
was~ chosen to preach according to I
,the natural order of things. After 1
this very interesting ,and impressive
address synod was organized, with
-azif hundred and twenty delegates
present, and after the election of. Mr.
gan their appointed business.
Instead of discussing the events, or
tLis anod, in its successive and sys-1
tmiatic order, 'twill be best to select
those features which mark it as one of
the most profitable, pleasant, and har
monious meetings of the Southern
Presbyterian church. The liveliest,
question with which the synod had toi
deal was the discussion of the organ-'
ization of a new Presbytery with Co
lumbia as a centre. This question
was hotly discussed, the opposition<
claiming that it would be diastrous
to the welfare of those Presbyteries '
with which such an organization 1
would interfere. It was especially
opposed by the pastors of the Presby
terian churches of Columbia, and af-'
ter afoll and free discusion from both
sides, it was decided to let things re
main in their present state.
The cause of home missions was
presented by the Rev. Dr. Craig, sec-<
retary of the home mission board of
the Southern church, and that of col
ored evangelization by Rev. A. LI
*Phillips, of Tuscaloosa, Ala. Both e
subjects were ably and exhaustively
discussed, anid a vote of thanks was s
returned by synod tothe two who had i
*upheld so earnestly causes so dear to C
-their church.
The interest which is felt in For
eign -Missions was shown by the set- a
ting apart of an entire session for c
this cause. The subject was intro- a
duced by Dr. Bryson, whose earnest ~
appeal made this cause appear in a r
light more imperious than ever be- a
fore, and so moved synod as to bring
about the appointment of five others
to discuss still further this inexhaust- i,
ible subject. The address most wor- a
-thy of mention was that of Dr. Beat- C
tie, which for its conciseness, compre
hensiveness, and earnestness cannot
be excelled. After the address a col
lection was taken'up, which amount
ed to fifty dollars.
The two other important questions s'
were the discussions of Christian ed
neation and the Sabbath. The object i
of the first is to attempt to estab
lish schools under the direct jurisdic
tion of the Presbyterian denomination ~
and to organize parochial schools
wherever possible. The second de
mands a more close observance of the
Lord's day and attacks the running
of trains and the delivery of mail and is
express matter on Sunday, as it is S
their tendency to subvert the laws of ?2
the Sabbath and to demoralize those
communities where they are prac
ticed. The point of the argument ~
which produced most discussion and
opposition was that it was the duty
of all who held railroad stock to de
liver it at once on the ground that it ii
was inconsistent to oppose the very
institutions from which they derived &
capital. The question was delivered
oier to a committee of learned doctors d
with the instruction to report at the
next meeting of synod.b
Although synod practically ad
journed on Friday night, yet in real
ity it may be said to have reached its
climax on Sanday. Drs. Girardeau
and Beattie, at the request of the pas- ae
tor, consented to remain and preach !
at the celebration of the Lord's sup
per on Sunday. 'Twould be in vain
to attempt to represent in writing the]
brilliant sermons of these two distin- n
guished divines. Suffice it to say g
that each, the criterios. of his style of
oratory, excelled all of their former T
efors madi willhe long ere the im
>ression which they have made, un
er divine guidance, will be effaced.
The various delegates returned to
heir respective charges delighted
vith the Christian hospitality of Sum
er, irrespective of denominational
ines.
The next meeting of synod will be
n Abbeville.
Our Manning Merchants.
Our Manning merchants have realized
hat advertising is a good paying invest
nent, and have this season given it a thor
ough test with satisfactory results. Moses
evi, the oldest merchant in the town, has
large display advertisement in this paper
'or the purpose of attracting the attention
f the people to Lis immense stock of any
hing you may ask for in the general mer
antile line, and although Manning is be
ween the markets of Charleston and Sum
er, Mr. Levi, by his energy, has made him
elf a strong competitor for either of these
narkets.
Another one of our enterprising mer
hants is Louis Loyns. He uses the col
imns of Tzz Tnmzs to inform the purchas
ng public of the many bargains he has in
,tore for them. Mr. Loyns's store is well
,tocked and nicely arranged. He is doing
large business which is increasing daily,

isement their careful attention.

lies' dress goods, trimmings. neckwear, &c.

hey have already established themselves
m the road to success.

iess in this town. He occupies a handsome

S. A. Rigby, another one of the commer
dal standbys of this town, is doing an im
nense business. His large store is as well
tocked as any like establishment can be.
le handles everything that a first-class
nerchant can possibly handle. Mr. Rigby
s a thorough business man, and makes his
>siness a study. His long experience
nakes him know the wants of tne people,
md therefore his stock is always selected
ith a view to satisfying the people's
ants. Besides his general business he
-uns a special line of all kinds of wagons
d buggies, so that there is no necessity
or people to go away from home when
hey desire to purchase a vehicle.
