The Baptist church at this place observed the fifth Sunday In Sep tember as their annual missionary day for tho children. There was singing, recitations and some ad dresses. There seems to be quite a spirit of missionary enterprise in this church, owing largely to the zeal and energy of their efficient Superintendent, Mr. T. N. Parks.? On this occasion the children ac quitted themselves in a degree that wan not only pleasing but very sur prising, and it would be almost Im possible to say which excelled where all did so well but we can not refrain from mentioning the performance of Willie Mag Hill who performed on the organ, also Charley Hill who recited beauti fully and also Allie Belle Cook who seems to possess real genius as an elocutionist, but wo must restrain our pen, for to mention all who de serve praise would prolong this cor respondence to too groat a length. Tho first Sunday In October was the centennial of. Bethabara Bap tist church. Mr. J. C. Riser read the centennial essay, which gave a completejnnd interesting history of this long established church, a few items from this history may inter est some of your readers. The church was organized by John Waller Hchackleford and David Lily in 1"95. The church building has stood on the present site for 75 years, beforo that time the building wan a milo or so west of the present location. Rev. Henry Hitt was pastor of this church from 1800 to 1820 and from him has de scended a large number of tho na no and among them several min isters, a great grand son of tho above named, being now a Baptist minister. The church was organ ized with forty members and death and removal have carried off a great number, but .still the church now numbers ninety members.? The Rev. B. F. Corley preached the Centennial sermon. Taken alto gether the day was an exceeding interesting one and will bo long re membered. Mr. Enoch M. PInson had the great misfortune to lose a bright and interesting little boy, on the 10th inst. The little follow was playing about the fire in the house, his mother being at work in an other room, when his clothing caught fire and in spite of the ef forts of the mother the child was ko badly burned as to cause death in a few hours. Our township is well represented at the various State institutions of learning. Carroll D. Nance is at the Citadel Academy, J. J. Mc Swain and B. R. Wells are at the South Carolina College, Misses Ber tie Turner, Bessie Riser and Irene Teague are at Rock Hill.? This we think is a good showing for Cross Hill. We are glad to see John R. Mc Gowan at home on a visit. He met with a serious accident n few weeks since, while at work In the shops of the Southern Railway in Columbia which accident caused the loss of one eye. He is now at his mothers recruiting from the accident. We hope he will soon bo restored to health and strength. The great decline in the price of cotton has caused a stagnation in business. Dr. E. W. Pinson and Miss So phie Abbey were married at the home of the bride's mother in Edgefleld county on the 22nd Inst. Rev. S. D. Vaughan officiated and tied the silken knot togethor which binds two hearts as one. We ex tend our congratulations to the happy couple and wish them abun dant happiness. Tho Dr. brought his fair brido home on the 24th. There will be a meeting of the township and all others who may wish to join with us, at this place on the 19th of November next to look alter our cotton factory, the prospect ie brightening, and we hope fur and expect a lively and successful mooting.

To the PeoDle of South Carolina: It giveB us great pleasure to say that the State Agricultural and Mechanical Society is in condition to carry on the great work in which it has bven engaged, looking to the advancement of the Agricultural and Mechanical interests of our State, and that the usual Fair will be held in Columbia, November Uth to 15th, under the brightest auspices. All the money arrangements have been made for paying premiums and other expenses. The railroads have acceded to our request, and have given us a rate of One Cent per Mile counting both ways for three days during Fair week. Excursion Trains will be run during this time, so that it will be convenient and cheap for the great er part of the pcopie to attend. The revision of the Premium List is in the hands of a Committee ap pointed for that purpose, and will soon be ready for distribution. It is highly probable that some fine racing will be witnessed, in addition 10 the other attractive features. The last two Fairs were as full and equal in all respects in point of the number and the excellence of exhibits ? as any preceding Fairs, though more slimly attended be cause of excessive railroad rates charged visitors. All these draw backs having been satisfactorily ad justed, there is no reason why this Fair should not be as successful as any heretofore held. Attend the Fair, and encourage us with your presence, and assist in this great en terprise. Yours truly, Thomas J. MoORR, President. Tiios. W. Hollo way, Sec'y.
