FROM BAYROKO.
Kihtok Horry Hkkat,i>:
With the mercury in the nineties,
the political cauldron has boon boiling
o'er the brim for some time;
but now the heat has abated, the
temperature is at freezing point.
Our peoplo are interested in something
better. If you will allow mo
1Y HEKALI), '
[space I'll tell your readers about it.
On Aug. 20th, a nine days meeting
began at Joiner's Swamp; our be
loved pastor II. D. Graingor doing
the preaching. lie did his best,
warning sinners of their danger, with
such forcible arguments that not a
few became alarmed and lied for
I mercy. Hefore the meeting eatne
to a close six were happily converted
and made children of God; while
others went away still weeping over
their sins. During the week there
were seven accessions to the Church
and on Suuday the 28th at I).30 A. M.
Hro. Grainger met these at Cannon
Mill and baptized them. They then
returned to the Church for the
twelve o'clock services, after which
they took the parting hand and all
went their way homeward, rejoicing
because of the great things that the
Lord had done for them during the
week.
This was one of the most enjoyable
week's meetings that it has ever
j been our privilege to participate in.
There was the greatest interest manifested
by Baptists and Methodist.
Some of the Methodist bretheren did
excellent work in exhorting, in showing
sinners the dangers to which
they were exposed, what thoy must
do to inherit the life beyond the
grave and that they could ontertain
no hope and live in sin. Many
good Christians testified for Jesus,
saying that lie had done many and
great things for them whereof they
were glad.

with a membership somewhere between

on, in building up the Church and
converting souls to God.

Our Rivers And HarborsNews
and Courier.
Washington, September <S.?Special:
During the current fiscal year
work will be carried on in South
Carolina on fourteen distinct projects
of riroi and harbor improvements
Congress at the last session
provided $-131,885 for this purpose.
Of this money there will be spent on
three haibors $337,000 and on eleven
rivers $97,885. It will be of interest
to notice briefly what the engineer
bureau proposes to do with
this money. The system of improvement
for Charleston harbor has been
so recently explained in The News
and Courier that nothing remains to
he said of that subject.
All of the money required for the
completion of the harbor of Georgetown
is now available. Tho amount
is $12,000. This will bo expended
in dredging the twelve-foot channel
already secured to a width of 200
feot entirely through the bar, and
when onco it is secured the engineers
are of the opinion that it will be
permanent. As a result of the work
already done, the engineers say the
commerce of Georgetown has more
than doubled, and the completion ol
the improvement, will still further
add to tho commercial development
of the city.
in tho improvement of YVinyah
Bay $100 000 is to be used. This
will be expended in the construction
of dikes across tho sloughs and along
the inner edges of tho breaker shoals.
Not much can be accomplished toward
completion of tho project with
tho relatively small sum, for the
work still involves an outlay of $2,181,250.
All the money necessary for the
completion of tho project for the improvement
of tho Kdisto River is
available, or $7,385, and it will be
used in clearing tho channel to give
easy navigation for rafts and flatboats*
The expenditures on this
river will have amounted to $33,385.
In clearing tho Great Bee Dee
Itiver of snags and other obstructions
there will be used $10,000. As a result
of tho past work on this stream
I ono new transportation line was established,
and parties using the rivet
report that much benefit has and will
result from the work oarrin/1 nn t.v
- ? "J
tho United States.
The river in the State that will
have the largest expenditure is the
Santee, and $30,000 is tho amount
available. This will be spoilt in
snagging operations and in cutting a
canal between Estherville and Minim
Creek large enough for river steamers.
Of course the work cannot be
completed with the funds in hand, as
the projeot stiil calls for $290,000.
Snagging operations 011 the Waceamaw
River will be continued with
$10,000, the worst obstructions to be
removed first. To finish the work
on tho river there must yet be provided
$50,000.
A similar sum of $10,000 will bo
expended on Wappoo Cut in securing
a low water channel of six feet
depth from Ashley River to Stono
River. The bulk of the work in
dredging.
The project for the improvement
of tho Watcreo River has been completed,
but $2,5000 will boj spent
this year in tho maintenance of the
channel secured. This sum is not so
large as the engineers desired, but
rilUKSDAY SJ
a good deal of the work can l>o done
to maintain the rUer in proper condition.
The Congareo Diver 1ms *6,000 to
l?o applied toward a project that
still requires$29,500 for its cmnple- '
tion. This money will he used in
i the removal of snags and other obstructions.
During the year the worst obstruction
to navigation on Mingo Creek
will be removed with the *3,000
available. To entirely clear the
channel there must s ill be provided
*4,000.
There will be spent on the Little
l'oe Dee Diver *6,(X)0 in the removal
of snags. To complete the work
$3,600 is required.
The completion of the work on
Clark ltlver will result from the expenditures
of the $2,600 on hand,
when it is expected, the improvement
will become of service to those living
in its vicinity.
