The Confederate Survivors Association for this County will meet here next Monday. Too great interest can hardly he manifested in this or ganizatiou. 1 lorry furnished her share of soldiers in the late war and the records of their actions should be left for their children.

PAIMIHlt ANlT nk\vsi?ai?kr i 31 a n. Many men think that newspaper ] men are persistent dnnners. Hy way of comparison let us suppose 1 that a farmer raises 1000 bushels of wheat a year, and soils this to 1000 persons in all parts of the country, i a great portion of them saying, "1 1 will hand you a dollar in a short time.' 1 The farmer does not want to bo small and says: "All right." Soon the | 1000 bushels are gone but ho has ? nothing to show for it, and ho then realizes that he has fooled away his 1 wuuiu crop mm us vame 10 mm is due liim in a thousand little driblets, 1 consequently lie is seriously emburrassed in his business, because the debtors, each owing him $1, treat it i as a small matter and think it would not help much. Continue this kind i of business year in and year out as j the publisher does, how long would j be stand it? A moment's thought , will convince any one that a publisher has cause for persistent dunning, < IMCHSONALS.

FIRM IN FI.OltKNCK AGAIN. New "Mansion Hon.sc" und Other Itiiihlinus Destroyed? Fireman Work Grandly?Loss #1 7,000. Condensed from Columbia Journal. Florence, S. C., Sept. 25.?A destructive fire broke out in this city this morning at 7:30 o'clock. It is thought to have been caused by an ignited match thrown among some shavings in the new, unfinishet Hotel,The Mansion House. Spreading rapidly northward under a high wind, it looked as if Florence was doomed. But the Fire Department and the Hook and Hadder Companies worked like hero's to savo the city. Several of the firemen were oveipowered by the heat; among them was ex-Chief of the Fire Department J. T. Stack ley. The fire was under control about noon. The losses will amount to $17,000 distributed as follows: The "Mansion House," $C,500; insurance $4,000: District Presiding Klder J. B. Wilson's residence, loss 0,000; insurance $3,000: St. John's Episcopal parsonage, loss *3,000; insurance unknown. Damage to other buildings saved by the unrelaxing efforts of the firemen amount to! about $500. The total insurance is probably $10,000. Mr. Kditok: f notice in your last issue a short article from one ''Observer." I would bo much pleased with it were it not that it left a bad taste in one's mouth. He speaks very smoothly, but there's vinegar in his remarks. I, for one would like to know what grievance he has at the hands of Conway society. If he is a spectator?an Addison- to stand off and smile at the foibles or tack of foibles of our young people, 1 warn him to be careful about describing himself as fully as did the Spectator. There is life yet in what he would like to terra a corpse; there are words and plebty of them behind the curMn tloy^udes from his view the "once know how to make so pleasant;'' and let me whisper to yon, sir, they can use their tongues if not their feet; they can talk, if they can't danco. Beware! If yon have your washing done in these "unsocial" regions, I worn you the bito of the cockatrice is not more fatal than the word of their tongue. Pefianok. The Printer's Devil. The printer's devil Is a much abused youngster. Owing to the rapid develop, incuts of machinery he i< speedily going out of duto, although the term "devil" la still applied to the hoy who haunts tho Bdltor for "copy." Tho origin of the word has led to many surmises, says an exchange. Superstitious people used to think that in order to produce copies so rapidly a printer must have the assistance of the black art, and therefore his apprentice was called the devil. The story goes that when Aldus Manutius commenced printing in Venice he had in his services an African boy who became famous all over the citi as "the little black devil," and it was whispered lie was the representative of his Satanic Majesty. This was very annoying to Aldus, so he publicly exhibited the boy and said: "lie it known to Venice that I, Aldus Manutius, printer to the Holy Church and Doge, have this day made public exposure i>f tho printer's devil. All thoso who think he is not llesh aiul blood may come and pinch him." A more probable origin of tho phrase, however, is the following: The first up prenfieo William Caxton had was the son r?f a French gentli^^o named Do Villo or Deville.

Wo need your counsel and experience, your help and your prayers, your God speed in this work. So let nothing prevent your taking steps at once for a full and active representation of your school. Let me urge the bretheren to come together with clear distinct ideas of what we want to accomplish, viz: the extension of the work, so as to reach all neglected children and communities, and the improvement of existing Sunday Schools. We want imformation and experience well digested and thoughtful, on the needs and improvements of the work; and to keep constantly before us that this is a high religious institution; its text book, the Bible; its teachers, God's people; the working field; the Church of Christ; its object, the conversion, the thorough Bible instruction, and salvation of the scholars. Come with a settled de e 'initiation to enjoy tl cconvention, to give as well as get a blessing, with hearts full of brotherly love so that you may carry awny hearts aflame with love to Christ and a new sense of fellowship with all of God's people, a determination to give your Sunday School the very best points when yon get home; to carry back with you ji well filled note book and a well stored memory, and a great thankfullnesf to God for those opportunities and privinges. At our last cohvention the following resolution was passed. "We do earn estly call upon all of God's peoph throughout our County, to prav foi God's blessings upon our work ant the workers, during the week preceod ing our Convention begining Friday Sept. 29th; and the Ministers of tin Gospel of all denominations are re quested to also preach a sermon 01 the Sunday School cause and worl on Sunday Oct. 1st next.''
