The Sailors.
Nov. A. ?J. Withcrspoon 01 .M'\v Orleans
preached in the Presbyterian
church 011 lust Sunday morning in the
interest of the sailors and tho home
founded for them in that city and presented
their cause with great interest.
The preacher was at a disadvantage owing
to his suffering from muscular rheumatism,
but ho spoke with much zeal
and testified his sympathy to the cause
which he has so much at heart to which
he referred as having had the honor
thrust upon him and which was not of
his own seeking as he was emphatically
a "land lubber" being born in the Waxhaw
setiliucnt in this State ami having
no knowledge of maritinc matters not
oven having seen a ship until late in
life. He was convinced that God hail
called him to this work and henceforth
ho intended to devote his life, his talents
and his best efforts to the promotion of
tho" welfare of the sailors and to spare no
?>1Forts to christinizo and civilize
thorn. Dr. "\Yithers-poort spoke of
the prophecies of the Bible wherein
it predicted that the interests
of the church would be advanced by a
christian commerce, and that it was
essential to the futtherance of this end
as well as for the spread of the Gospel
by missionaries that we should have
christian seamen, for unless this was so,
the example of had sailors among the
heathen weuld tend to retard rather
than im :ase the desired end.
The .^eaker mentioned some who
had come under his own observation,
who from profane vicious men, had
changed to earnest, working christians,
and apostles of temperance.
At the conclusion of the service he
referred to the many ties that bound
him to this community. He and his
family wore nealy allied to us, by family
ties and associations, and by friendships
of long duration, and he assured his
hearers that the many kindnesses
\vhioh he had received in his native
State had gone to his heart and which
he oould never forget.
IXr. Wilson replied that he but spoke
the sentiments of his congregation
whnn h?? assured the preacher that he
wc*ld ever fiml a cordial welcome in this
church, that he had their prayers anil
best wishes for his success, ami the earnest,
hope that God would prosper both
him and his cause.
A liberal contribution was taken up Co
aid Dr. Witherspoon in his pood cause
and to testify the interest which the
congregation felt in the effort and the
high regard entertained fur him personally.
Ice cream.
The lalies of the 1'rcshyterian church
will serve ice cream this (Tuesday)
evening, at the accustomed time and
place, instead of Wednesday evening.
I)on't forget it.

During a visit to Spartanburg last
week we visited Glenn Springs. This
famous place is open and visitors are
coming in daily. A handsome new cottage

all liver diseases and troubles of the
the digestive organs. For these it is
almost a specific. There is being agitated
now the building of a railroad from
Glenn Springs to Newberry which will
put them in close communication with

Examination in the primary departments
of Krskino and the Female College occured

not one made a hitch. The programme

The accomplished teachurs of this
department are Misses Jennie Edwards
and Julia Kennedy. If tin; success of
the last evening be an index these young
ladies are to be congratulated on their
proficiency. One of the interesting
features of the occasion was the distribution
of prizes by President Kennedy,
and the reading of the roll of honor.
The examinations are progressing
finely. At this date Friday
< vening the Female College has closed
up and the male will finish to-morrow.
We have had the pleasure of hearing
classes in both. In the male College'
we listened to the excellent examinations
in Prof. Miller's room -in Triganometry.
The young men acquitted
themselves wo'.l. The Professor tells
me that the class c:m work any example
in the book. We heard part of an oxcelient
ex?.'rcis?; in Greek in Prof. McCain's
room. In Prof. Todd's we listened
to a capita1 examination in Latin.
Professors Todd and McCaiu are very
Uiorongh. This morning we had the
pleasure of hearing Prof, iiood examine
a diss in llisto'ry. The class showed
off tt> advantage. The Professor makes
(ree use of the hlackboaid and his scholars
show their fine training. At the
Female College we have had the pleasure
of bearing Miss Kate Kennedy in
Knglsh Literature and also in Triganometry,
and MissJennio Clark's class in
Latin. The young ladies show that
their training is indeed very thorough.
The teachers keep up with dill the ad
! vunco methods of imparting instruej
tions. Wo heard the remark that it
| was wonderful tho promptness with
j which they went through with the most
difficult problems. The Female faculty
is an able one.

I we have heard in tin: Literary Societies
of Krskine. Kvery exercise was ot' a
very high order.
J Miss Clara Sharp presided most gracefully
and in a few choice words introj
duced the exercises. The debate, "Is
I liiterary Fame the Most Lasting?" was
cxhaustingly handled in two capital
essays by Miss Susie Whitesides for the
affirmative and Miss Nannie Lathan for
the negative. These essays were a
great credit to the ladies and their society
as well. The Alumnm essayist ol
the occasion was Miss Susie Calhoun of
Due West. It was choice, beautifully
! and splendidly read. Miss Heuna Hi.ike
i read a very fine and touching Yaledici
tory which was very feelingly replied t*>
in choice words by Miss Macic 1'ricc ol
Florida.
Preparatory to the delivery of the
medals Miss Allie ITuitt read a most
i Huent essay on the subj :ct, "it is
owing to ourselves that we are that or
this."
The following arc the yourg ladies
receiving the prizes :
Host debator in the junior class, Miss
Susie W li i I i-kuidiac
Best essayist in sophomore class. Miss

BesUextiaet reader in the Freshman,

At this stage President Kennedy
culled i>n some t>f the gentlemen for remarks
and Dr. Lathan, and Rev. ,J. T.
Chalmers responded most appropriately.
Thus another mile stone in the journey
of Amelia was most pleasantly passed.
For our sh ire of enjoyment we return

Some of the railroad hands do not
seem to have a proper conception differ- ,
once between "meiim" and '"teum" as a
few days since while Mr. MeConnel was (
showing some goods ho placed his
meerschaum and tobacco upon the counter.
in a few minutes he wanted it, but it
could not be found.
Mr. i!. A. I'ressley's horse ''Wild !

Last Sunday morning thorn came near 1
being two pretty serious a Hairs at the
lord near the old double bridge-:. When t
Commissioner Hil??y let out the build
ing of t)int place, he was requested to
have a ford fixed for the convenience of
the public. The lowest bid was $10.25.
The contractor at once went to work, (
had the river banks cut down, and haul- f
ed in rock, lie did not put enough 1
rock upon this bank, and it was therefore
somewhat miry. At the time above
mentioned the mule drivi-n l>v Messrs \Y. |
(J. Johnson and \Y. T. Cunningham ]
mired down and had to be unhitched
from the buggy before it could get out
and these gents had the pleasure (
of pulling the buggy out of the 1
river themselves. A short time after, 1
Mr. Kdward Smith and wife were cross- J
ing and their mule tnired, fell back and 1
broke one of the shafts. There was
danger of the mule being drowned, and
had to take to the water, to get it out.
The contractor has since lixed it.
Mr. W. V. Clinkscales attended divine
services at the Presbyterian church last
Sunday. The pastor, llev. T. C. Ligon,
gave us quite an impressive sermon
upon a subject which should claim the
earnest consideration of us all, i. c.
"He sure your sin will find you out."
In this connection i would mention a
rather unusal coincidence. 'Tis said that
in the southwestern corner of Anderson
County, there are two ministers, the
other a Methodist, both having the same
initials, and surname /. e. T. C. Ligon,
and the coincidence is continued in the
person of their wives.
The frequency of the visits of the ,
drummers and their numbers would ;
clearly show if every other evidence
were wanting that Hour town is
rapidly growing in importance. Dr.
Moseley's hotel is receiving a gratifying I
patronage. Travellers in reach, would |
find it to their interest to give him a
call.
