Rain plentiful for the prcson'. Polities has lulled down since'.rillman's election. People are enjoying fresh pork and potatoes. Health good except bad colds. People have begun in earnest to prepare for planting. May success crown their efforts. The Sunday School at Pleasant Meadow is doing a good work under the old Superintendent, 11. M. Anderson. The Chuich is in a prosperous condition under the pastoral care of Rev. .J. W. Todd. Bayboro Church is without a pastor. If all sayings are true Raybo ro must have got too big for her jacket. There have been two new churchcs constituted from the members of t Bayboro since 1889?one at Qurlcy two miles distant by M. Pridgen and Elder J. Soules of N. C. and the other in one and one half mile of Pleasant Meadow by M. Pridgen and deacon J. It. Gerald, of Bayboro. I fear there is more animosity in this matter than Christianity.

Dditok: Having a few idle moments this morning I thought I would write iv short missive to Thi: Hkkald and I hardly know what to write About, i * * I would like to give you all a description of fti'er City but my time is limited, and will not permit; so I will endeavor to say a word or two of encouragement to the boys of Conway, whom 1 feel so much interested in, especially those who worked so energetically with me in the office. Boys remember that the most sue cessful men have been the most industrious. It is easy to point out some rich man and say, he began as a poor boy. There are three qualties that will insure success in any walk of life, viz: ability, integrity and industry and though at lirst it might seem as if the first of these, is a gift, and cannot be cultivated you will liud that it is a fact every boy has ability if lie only finds out in which line of study or action it lies. Ability is ' the power of doing a thing will a boy should learn early that he can not have ability in everything; that is, few boys have a great deal of ability. The first should be that 1 'whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well." A [boy who does his best in whatever he undertakes will soon find in what direction his efforts meet with most marked success, and having discovered thnt, let him bend all his energies to bo first in that particular branch of study or work, Better be a first class printer than a fourth class lawyer, a good .machinist than a poor doctor. "A boy of integrity is like a stout staunch ship sailing through the ocean ; the waves may sway her from side to side, but she will remain whole and firm" Boys make up your minds to be nf t-ue, If you have deceived say to yourself and say "By God's help l'l * stop short from this day. I must MORI urn an honorable name, ami I will;" s lid at whatever cost to yourself bo ?e true: let no temptation spring a ( oak in .your heart. 1 Some of us may have been denied 1 hose extraordinary ta'ents w hich iver give their possessors such in- ; luence. but we must not imagine ; hat there is nothing for us to do. i 'Kvery one though poor atul huml>l> ; , 1 las a mission to fulfill, livery hniul though small ami foohl Crtu work out some good or HI," , Those of us then who may m turn i over the want of talents, the itml i!(iccomplish great things, should take rm ? i ? courage, i uougn we i>?? not Uisim guished for brilliant nc<|uire:v'u t though crowned assemblies I; not upon the eloquence of our ton gue, yet wo may exert an infiueno unobserved, save by an all-seeing eye, an influence gentle as the dew drops sweet as the fragrant flower which will live when tin tain and frivlous are forgotten. Such deeds j though seemingly trilling are pre in tin sight of Cod, and are molded in his jeweled ledgers in clu r aeters as impesisluiblc as eternity. .). T. Mavers. lluyboro i'ireiiil. We are anxious for the readers of the HkUALI) to know a few things concerning our first Quarterly Conference for current year held at Pop lar Church, Jany. 24th,^5th. Our new and beloved presiding elder, T. J. Clyde nu t us promptly a' the hour appointed. The first sight of him convined us that he was full of good things for us. This was clearly proven as soon as he enter J ed the pulpit, lie chose for ' his text Mark \i, IS. Some of us 1 have thought when parting with 1 other presiding elders that it. was ' almost impossible for us to get. an- ' other as good, but it was not long after bro Clvde boirnii to Ki?. " 1 11 fore we began to think, well, surelv all the presiding elders are good. The regular services being closed there was served an excellent and abundant lunch. Conference was) then called and we entered into bus- r iness. It. was very gratifying to both pastor and people to bear the ' presiding elder say that our financial report, was as goo 1 or better than any charge he bad visited up to date, The P. K. seemed very well pleased with the future prospect- of this circuit, both spiritually and linancially. lie congratulated th Conference for taking such spe ia< care of their pastor and urged the members to co operate with him in the great work v>f saving souls- -this, however, had been promised Jbefoiv. He also said lie believed t he pastor ' would prove a blessing to them , and they would love their pastor. We say, A men to t hat. Conference having concluded it.-business it was announced t hat the pastor "wou'd preach at night. Had 1 a good time at night service, fun ' day morning came and the Sumlns school assembled at the usual hour. The school is large and intertaining ' and the l\ K. arrived just in time to make an interesting and enteresting ' talk to the children, lie occupied the pulpit and began to offer us Jesus the Bread of Kternal life, and thanks be to Cod, many souls fed j on 111m abundantly. This must i have been one of" Bro. Clyde's best efforts, for Oh! what a glorious timer we did have. Bro. Clyde was not 1 in good health, and if he can preach that well in that condition what can wo expect from him when nothing t is the matter. t The congregation requested it and the pastor preached at night, I lev. j K. 1'. Booth closing the services, t 1 tell you we had a good time, or { BO came forward for prayer and one ( little girl was happily converted to { Cod, and many souls were abundant- 1 ly blessed. Our next Conference will be at Magnolia where we expect ; Another refreshing shower from the presence of tho Lord. We believe the people are working, , looking, hoping, praying and expecting a good time all over the oircu't this year; may the good Lord , help that they may not be disap i pointed. A. M. Dcsknmjry. Zoan, S. C ' 1 .. n Epitok iiouuy ukuald: ' It is generally conoedod by every ( ?no that (he intelligence of the citi- 1 zeus is a matter of prime importance 1 lo'c\ery sta'e. ^ 4<A thorough education" says < Iliokok, "is not only a fortune tot lie 1 child but a price put into his hand f whereby he may serv" both his 1 country and his (tod." ' The education of the citizen, so i important to the State and comma t nity, cannot safely he left to the cit- t izens themselves. i The government of t he State must I f Y HEKALIX nperiniend and control this. lc. is, therefore, the duty o' the iv'l govern men t to establish and egulat ' a general ays'em of ed uca ion. Our State recognizee this duty, md discharges it to a certain oxt cut u the establishing and perpetuating 's Free school' system. By this Means the poor, who are otherwise tillable to secure an education, can, ?y availing themselves of the opportunity, obtain an ordinary education i Mil; expense of the State. 1 will add ineideutly, I hut, not with landing it- abuse ami "ho con fusion it often creates, no better a v- u mi was ever in-titu'ed in America for ili education oflthu masses than that of the comeon Free school* Now regarding the higher schools Does Mi State do its duty in main taining the higher schools? It is a fact well established that the liigliei sehoo's do not grow out of the lower; b ut the higher school is, in actual occurrence, lir.st, and the lower one is the product. There is no law of evolution by which the common school grows up into the college, for, a-- an historical fact, the college is first and gives birth to the common school. It is not by the lower education, of the manv thai we come to have the higher education of t e few; hut the exact converse r iles. The cdu j * / i t ? i canon ot 1110 many is inlays ucponilent upon tlic nlueution <?f (he few. Acknowledging 1he.se facts to hi true, we shall not regard it unseemingly favoritism when the government levies upon all an educational lax for the support of a school which perhaps only a limit**1 number may \ttend, ?providing the eondi [ions do not savor of favoritism." South Carolina may well boast of Iter educational facilities. !>i I I ?av boast? True sic has many institutions of learning of which she may we'd he pro id. But when we look around and see the various institutions for the bet lenuenl of the young men, and then deserve tho disadvantages attending that of the voting ladies, we should how our heads with regret and disgust. W hen \ye think of thesuperior ad- vantages enjoyed hv the colored girls >ver the whites, we should feel mortified and humiliated. Three grand , institutions to he run by the* State in the interest of Iter white hoys, and one for tie colored (both sexes;) and yet we fail to lind (ho slightest recognition of the claims of our girks. Sons are trained at aoadauiies, co'leges and nnivernties and the State pays for it. Why I 11 > : 1 ' I , , |,, J.- loii.l.: . IIKiUV UV II J M > If? I* /I I O for frhc edttea'ion of her daughters?

The gir's of Mouth Caro'ina want i chance to gel an education, and ihe fact that they havn't got it. is not only an injustice, but shows a woful lack of common sense on the part of the tax paying and law nuiking people of the Stale.

Mr. Alexander \"on Kin, a wellknown ami wealthy citizen of Napa City, ('ah, who arrived here from Kurope last week, furnishes a beautiful example of w hat may happen to tourists who roam around Kurope without being well armed. Last fall, Mr. Von Kin decided to travel in 10nrope for his health, and sailed away well provided with monov and let! rs of credit. <)neevening, three . i it 1*1 j l ii moil cm ago, wnne lUKing a wtiiK in the streets of (lenoa, Italy, ho was 1 set upon by a band of robbers, who la-it him unmercifully and robbed him of every thing he had. IIcing penniless, he started on foot for Frunze, and on reaching Nice, he was arrested as a vagrant and so.t to i prison for .1 month, lie t ten start ed for Marseilles, which he reached more dead than alive and called on the American Consul. The consul i advanced him money an 1 clothing and bought him a ticket for America; the land of the free. Mr. Yon Kin will not have to walk to Napa, but when he gets there he will probably stay there.

The sudden anil unexpected death o? Secretary Windoni has bean the cause of many mysterious head shakings and "1 (old you so's" among the j superstitious, who had long ago w rit- j ten this administration down as ' hoodooed* and in "bail luck." 1 | am not superstitious in the slightest degree, but I must say that the families of Mr. Harrison's administration, although it is not yet half over, have eer ainly had what seems more! than their share of visits from the dreaded rider of the noiseless white I horse, death. And aside from these i families ihere has hardly been a week I since Mr. Harrison came int.ool1ice| j that tho Hags of the city have not been half-masted, on account of the | death of some person of prominence, and many of them have been closely iv'atcd in some manner to the adminis'r^t ion. in fact so common have these things become that as j soon as a death is announced you ' hear on all sides "well, who will go next?" Mr. Window's funeral took place here io day, and was attended by all ' of the more prominent Government 1 Ollicials, including the President j most of the Senators and Hepresen* i ta'ives, and the diplomatic corps. Illn I' I ' ? ' ? * ino ii'iiiici emu-agues m me cannier were tho "honorary pall hearers1. The interment was at Kook Creek cemetery. "The king is dead. Long live the! king." The body of Secretary Windom was not cold before the politicians began speculating as to his successor at the head of tho Treasury department. Owing to the present Very peculiar financial situation i. . in this country, this appointment will be the most important and far reaching in its effects of any single appointment nvuta by Mr. Harrison, and it may make a great deal of trouble, perhaps a panic. Secretary Windoin, although opposed to free and unlimited silver coi- ago at the present time, was by j no nanus an enemy to silver, in fact I . ? 11 ' ? uo very crienuiy <i> *11ver^'.nu , it wiw... probably solely Wmuso of (he liatulfoTtn&p^Wiliigfn which (jhuvttcteirizcd whole public oarer that he opposed free coinage.

Every way that M Harrison looks he wi 1 be confronb by difheul'ies in selecting a Secret ry of the l'reusury. The man me prominently mentioned for the v cancy is llepreaentative McKinle but owing to his being a Preside ti candidate it is .doubtful whether I will consent to take a positic where he would have to coin mi so strongly on the financial questic right on ihe eve of a national eai paign.
