At a WteUng of the Synod of South Carolina held at Bethlehem church “ dewberry District, S.

Have you nice plank fences all around the premises I are they white washed and in good repair? Is the boose painted? Have you blinds to the windows ? Have yoa a pomp in the yard ? Are there as many fruit aad shade trees around it as there should be? Is everything about it curator table and convenient f You say, what, if it hi not ? I will tell you. I know a few parsonage* that are kept up sod are nice, easy places, and strange as it may appear to you, such parsonage* are always occupied, if yours is not so, sod your mioister is called to a charge with the comfortable henra attached, he will leave you, and if yoa call your favorite to succeed him, be wilt ask aiuoug the very first question», not of yoa, but of outsider* * * Wb»t is tbe condition of the parsonage T* And when told it is an ohl frame, not painted, no fencing, no frail trees, Ac., well as he loves yoa and yoar flattering opinion of him, be will de cliue. There is a charm aboat a confer table komr that nothing else can giva, and ministers snd their families are just a* susceptible of the influence of that charm as others, and often much more so. Did it ever strike yon that this very thing has much to do with tbe frequent change of ministers, and the difllrnity in seen ring tbe miuister* yon prefer ? The best parsonage 1 hare ever seen south of Virginia i» poorer than the poorest 1 have seen north of the Potomac. Virginia exceeds the Htatc* farther Booth in comfortable imrsonages, as in good booses of worship, but iu Virginia and Went V irginia great improvement could be made in this direction. Bee to it, then, make your parnoti ages attractive aad comfortable, and you will allow yourselves to Ira a people of refinement aad taste, aad that will recommend you to the at tention of cultivated minister* more than a few dollars added to tbe salary. A few days work in wtnter7«ben you are at leisure, would add much to the ftptraaraoce and comfort of yonr parsonage, ft is natoniMhiog bow much mere white wash, to say nothing of paint, add* to the looks of n home.
