J. L. STRAIN. Oct. 10, Imo. He Talks Common Sense to Both White and Colored People. Itc.v. Richard Carroll spoke to a large crowd of white people at the Star Theatre Sunday afternoon. He was introduced by Rev. F. C. Hick son, who spoke in high regard of the speaker and his work. The burden of Rev. Richard Car roll’s address was that the negt-u having been brought here and having been the producer of the south for hundreds of years, must remain here because God intended for him to re main, and that it was the duty of the white man to help educate him and thus make a better citizen of him. In contravention of the idea that | education ruined th'e negro the | speaker laid down the proposition I that no man could elevate another I above himself and that therefore every time a white man elevated a negro the white man was himself ele vated. He plead for a better citizen- ship in both white and black, saying among other things that the people of the south should pay their ser vants better wages and require bet ter service. He depicted in its true colors the slovenly, dirty manner in which the most of the domestic ser vice of this country is rendered plead for more cleanliness in kitchen, in the home, in the life and character of all. At times he was dramatic and at other times he assumed the role of a comedian, but at all times he was forceful, attractive and interesting. Rev. Richard Carroll is head and shoulders above any other negro in this whole country. South Carolina should be proud of him and he shouM be given all the encouragement and assistance he wants in his noble work, which is the teaching of color ed children how to work and mako themselves useful to themselves and their country.

The morning discourse was “Faith Works in Love.” The speak er divided the sermon into three parts, Faith. Works. Love, and his exposition of each division was plain, practical and pleasing. Mr. Listen is a devout Christian gentleman 01 deep learning and pleasant address, and the Presbyterian church will miss a golden opportunity if it fails to get him. In fact, all the people of Gaff ney, irrespective of church or creed, should be proud to have such an ad dition to the citizenship of the com munity. Mrs. Westrope at the morning ser vice rendered with beautiful effect, “Some day I shall see Him face to face.” In the evening Mr. Listen preach ed on “Happiness,” expounding in good style the different degrees of happiness, but holding that the hap piness of the knowledge of Christ was the supreme happiness.
