At night Mr. Scott preached oi the "Evils of the Tongue,' and spoke of the evils of talebearing on the commiu nity, the evils of hypocrisy and slander. THIE LUTHERAN ehurch was tastef:lly decorated with evergreens, tlowers and mottoes. At the morning service Rev. J. B. Fox preached to a large congregation from 1 Cor. 13:14, "If Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and is also your faith vain." le said the resurrec rect ion of Christ was a reality and sup ported by stronger and more convinc ing evidence than o'ther historical facts. Not to accept the resurrection of Christ was to take from religion its chief cor ner stone. The sermon wa= an able ex position of divine truth and eloquently delivered. At the night service the house was crowded, and R.-v. W. Iiavne Leavell delivered an eloquent sermon from the words "He saved others, himself he cannot save." le said these words were meant as a sneer, and ;poke of the evils of sneering. The sormon was well re eeivel. TilE METHODIST church was appropriately and beauti filly decorated for the Easter service this year. The pastor, Rev. J. L. Stokes, preached an appropriate sermon from the text, Mark 10:0, "le is risen," and from 2 Cor. 15:1, "And if Christ be not raised, your fa'th is vain and you are yet in your sins." le spoke of the origin of the name Ea_ter, being del ived fromu the Teutonic goddess Ostara,whose festival came about the same time. He gave a sketch of the clo$ing scenes of our Lord's life and the resurrection morning, and made practical applica tion of the resurrectio: of Christ to ev ery individual life. There were no se'-ices at night. In the afternoon 3fr. Stokes preached at Sharon, nea:r Kiinards. THE A. R. PRESBYTERIAN church was not decorated. Rev. E. P. 31eClintock, the pastor, preached from 1 Cor. 15:20, "But now is Christ risen from the dead and become the first fruits of them that slept " lHe said that while every Sabbath was aii emblem of the resurrection, yet on this particular day in a vast multitude of pulpits would this doctrine be preached to-day. lHe spoke first of the fact of the resur rection of Christ, and second of the in timate connection between his resturrec tion and that of. believers, and that there was a close identity bet ween the p)res?nt body atnd the resurrected body. THE EPISCOPAL church was :dso tastefully decorated for the Easter service. Capt. N. B. 31azyck conducted lay reading. 0On next Sunday Re~v. Mr. HI1ntekel wvill con duet regular Easter service. THtE PRESBYTERIAN church had no decorations'. The pastor, Rev. J. S. Cosby, was absent an'd the IRev. W. Hlayne Leavell preached in the morning from the words, "Though he slay me,. yet w~ ill 1. trust him." The theme of his dise,urse wvas "Uncon querable Trust.' It was an eloquent sermon and very much liked by those who heard it. There was one accession to the Luth eran church andl one to the Bapti-t. The dayv was a most delightful and pleasant one. Newberry feel, a just p)ride in her vouing men. Whether they cast their lots among-t hier own people or try their fortunes in foreign tields, she still watches their successes with pleasure. We sometimes think we are a little slow ini appreciating or aceknowvledging genu ine merit ini otur own people, who a:re here with us, or who are la:boring in other St ate.s, and in pres-ing their claims for recognition in matters of Church and State. We go too often after strangers, and overlook the claims and virtues of our~ own people. Rev. Wlliam Hlaynec Leavell, who is now on a visit to Newberry, is one of our own boys. Having been: away from Newberry for several years, and in view of the repuitation: he has miade for hiimself as an eloquent pulpit orator, a short sket ch of his life and work may not be amiss at this time. Few, if any, younir men, who have left Newberry and go.;e in to the world, have (lone mloreW for themselves tha:n lie, and Newberry .shoiuld feel puroudl of him. Hie is a son of ou:r towns:me, Ccl. John R. Leavell, and is in his 4th yea:r. Hie n:ever h:ad tihe adva: : ::gs of a college education, and as lie hi?nself says, was n:ot educated except, as he has educeated himself by hard situdy and close :pplication since he entered time mi:nistry. Hie was ini Newberry College during tile war an:d left the in:stitution in: Jue,e 1860, having possibly gone thirou:gh the sophomore class. At this time his h:ealth failed and h:e went on his father's farm for one year, anid in tihe fall of 186;, having been converted, and deciding to enter the mni:stry, lie went to the Sonmbernl Baptist Theolog ical Semcinarv. then: located at Green yille, and prol)ecuted his stumdies there for nearly three years, but .inst before graduation his heal:h again failed and he returned home. lie then took charge of a mis-ion work in the Yorkville As sociation, and afterwards acted as ais sistant inuancial agent of Furman Uni versity. In 1871 lie preached in this county. Hie then took ch:arge of the Boats church at Huntsville. Texa=, where he remained one year, and v ther" h, receiived a call to the I Baptist cliuh of Memphis, but di: :icept on account of his health. ne- chatrge was in Jack-on, I where lie begiii hi- n%ork iii Jali is:3. In l)eeetnber, 1874, he inarri4 daughter of Senator George of Mi sippi, and resigned his charge. I Ie aecepted a call to one of the first tist churches of New York city. b then only twet,ty-five years old. I: sprin,e of Is:77 lie wa cal led to the I i;.ipti-t chirei of Ma itlee-ter. whre lie reulainl I for live yea r-. ing hiA pa.-torate at Man1hester his ohlgisal studies and researche; led to so inodify and (i:.ige hi. doeti vi"ws. and views of church governt as to nece-sitate. his withdrawal I thet Baptist deionination. IIc jo the Coingregatioili-t , :L1 wenit Lo loln :nd wa- exainiied by one of largest an l most learned cott ucils assembled in Bo-tou, and in 1882 appointed pas:or of the second ch of his deinorninatiol in Bo.-ton, %% lie has sinee retmainel. His church r so rapidly under his preaching thu beeaie necessary to eolonize a chrchi, which was done about one ago, :diiul about 20.) of his m"mber; ganized an built a new church. has resigned the old church and h: supply for the new orga:inizatioii his return. in the summer of 1SS5 he spent t months travel in Europe. Boston is the centre of letters learning in the East. Mr. Leavell's visit South i- twol IIe is here on a visit to his relatives friends, and at the s:ime time is lo' after the educational and church % of lii denomination aniong the col people of the South. The Congrega alists have several instititiions for colored people in the South, notably Atlanta University, and Fiske Un sity at Nashville. They spend $40( annually in this work. Mr. Leavell is eongenial, pleas easy and sociable in his manners, a talker. an eloquent pulpit orator, one of the handsomest men we I ever seen. Ie has achieved for hin an enviable reputation as an able eloquent preacher for one so young. HIe leaves next week for New Yet state Convention Y. X. C. A. The State Convention of the Y.

A council consisting of the pastor and six delegates from the Newberry Baptist church, and the pastor and two delegates from Bush River Baptist church, met on Sunday afternoon April 10th, 1887, at 4 o'clock in the Union Church building on the grounds of the Newberry Cotton Mills, at the request of a company of be lievers in Christ connected with the Mills, who wished to organize themselves into a Baptist church. J. R. Leavell was elected Moderator and John S. Carwile secretary of the council. Twenty-two (22) persons presented letters of dismission from Baptist churches and were enrolled as members of this church. A covenant, articles of faith and articles of agreement were read by the secretary of the council and adopted by those who=e names had been enrolled. The church elected J. E. Crosby and L. W. Redd deacons, and Robt E.Rhoden church clerk. Rev. W. J. Langston read 2nd chapter of Eph. A hymn was sung. Rev. W. J. Langston preached a sermon from Eph. 2:20-22. J. R. Leavell led in prayer. Rev.

Cotton Mill Dot". Mr. Editor: Having been silent for several weeks, and as I told you in my last communication that I would let you hear from inc again when the weather got warmer, and as this is such a beau tiful spring day I will do so. The health here is extremely good. The mill is running smoothly along; goods all sold as soon as manufactured. An additional boiler has been ordered and will be at tached at an early day when we hope to have no more stoppage of the mill. The hot supper at the residence of Mr. Floyd for the benefit of Union Chapel, on Sat urday night last proved to be a success. Itwas liberally patronized by nearly all of the operatives. Cake rafles, fishing ponds, speeches and dialogues were the order of the night. A Baptist congrega tion was organize in Union Chapel on, factory grounds on ,Sunday afternoon the 10th inst., at 4 o'clock, with twenty two members. The deacons of the church, with clerk, were elected. The organization sermon was delivered by Rev. Langston, followed by Rev. Scott, both addressing the congregation ably and suitably for the occasion. Divine service wa fheld in the church on Sun (lay night, and three additional members were added to our list. Protracted ser vice will be held at this Chapel at night dlurino- the week by Rev. Langston and Rev. %[uggins. May God bless all their eTlott, and give us strength in our newly Iorganized church. Bro. R. Y. Leavell will receive our heartfelt gratitude for two chairs and a table, donated to our church. Yours truly, OPERATIVE. f-R OVID ENCE. Gardens are looking remarkably well, considering the recent cold spell. St. Paul's school is flourishing- -we hope that our lot may be always cast among such kind and hospitable people. They can't be beat. Mr. A. J. Bedenbaugh is suffering with boils and is unable to work. Nat urally being a stirring man, he says, it goes pretty hard with him to stay in doors. The Woman's Missionary society has recently been reorganized at St. Pauls chut chi; it numbers 0.5 or 70 members, has an able set of officers and is doing an excelgut wort:. Prof. E. 0. Counts will organize a reading circle at St. Pauls at an early date. Earnest is a great educational worker. We feel proud of the organiza tion being so ntear us, and if the comn mnunity will give us their assistance we are bound to succeed. What three rivers flow wholly between States ? DmXE. EXCELSIOR NOTES. Some of our farmers have commenced ant ing cotton this week. Last Sabbath was a beautiful day. How m:auty were absent from church that should have beetn present? Rev. 31. 31. Kinard, after having spent -a few days of the past week at home went down to Columbia Saturday to par ticipate in the appropriate Easter seivices held in Ebenezer Lutheran church Sabbath, returning to Newberry oni Monday to resume his studies at the Sceminairs. Owing to the busy season of the year but few of'the people in our section at tendled the "~Union meetings" held at Prosperity in Grace Lutheran church d tring the p)ast week. The services have becen interesting from beginning to 1end, and it is to be hoped have accom plished much good. What a blessing it i.% when Christian laborers unite hand in hand working for the Mlaster's cause. We were sorry indeed to learn of the said death of Mr. Jacob B. Long. rTe -deceased was formierly a near neighbor to the writer arid none knewv him but to love him. In his death, the wife has lost a kind husband, the children a: loving father. andl this community a worthy citizen. "Be ye also ready for in such -an hour as ye think not the sotn of man conmethi." The E xcelsior school observed good rFriday. A great miany of the farmers also observed the day. We would like to aisk the question, why is it some of the farmers claim it is wrong to work in the -farm on good Friday, but yet they will -go to town and dho their trading and -spend the day in this manner, selling -chickens, shingles, cotton, etc., ? Is this Skeeping the (lay holy ? Is it any more Sharm for the farmer to continue his work on good Friday than to go to town and spendl the day in this manner. We just make mention of this as a great many of 1our farmers claim it is so very wrong to -work on that day. We are only com rmanded to keep one day holy. "Re member the Sabbath day to keep it eholy, six days shalt thou labor and do all they work." Does this include good Ftriday ? "I think not." SIGMA.

An alarmt of fire wa= given on last Saturday morning between 5 and 6 o'clock, which was caused by the burn ing out of a stove flue, or chimney, in Rev. J. C. Boyd's house. No damage done, save the fright to the inmates of the house. There was not the number of people in town on Good Friday that are usually seen here on this day. There was re ligious service in several of the churches in the surrounding country, which ac counts for a portion. at least, being ab- - sent. Among the p"ersons present in town on Good Friday, we noticed a quorum - of County Commissioners. One was buying rations, the other looking for some one to cook rations. Slight difler ence only. Our friend, H. 31. Dominick, lost hi> pocket-book containing a twenty dollar bill on last Friday, somewhere between his home and Prosperity. There was nothing in the pocket-book except the twenty dollar bill. Mr. Duminick offers a reward of five dollars to the finder. On last Sunday night a thief entered the dwelling of Mr. James Sease, near here, and while the inmate, were sound ly sleeping, extracted about thirty-live dollars in money from a trunk in a room where his children were sleeping. No arrests vet. Prof. Edward Carswell lectured on Monday night in Grace Church, on laughing. The effort was indeed a hap py one. The audience was not as large as was hoped for. A part of the prcr ceeds will go to the benefit of the Y. 31. C.A. Work has been connlencel on the new depot for the C. & G. R. R. in earn est. The design and plan of the build ing is a beautiful one, and when it is completed will be the prettiest depot on the whole line of road, and will also be an ornament to our town. We feel that the C. N. & L. road has secured this ad vantage for us already. It is useless for me to tell your readers that Spring has come, that the revivify ing rays of the sun are briaging to life the dead things of winter, that the flow ers are blooming and wafting their sweet perfumes on the gentle zephyrs of the evening into your boudoir, that the sweet warblers are making melody among the boughs of the trees, that the )anl.s are gamboling on the hills. that the little fishes are rolling the little peb bles together in the little riffles in the little brooks. Yes. your raders know all these things and a great many more. The damage suit in the case of Huff man estate vs. the C., N. and L. Railroad was settled on Tuesday. The matter was left to a jury of arbitration. T wenty four jurors were empan neled-t welve chosen. The Hluffman estate claimed $1,000 as the amount of damage for right of way through their lands for the said road. W. S Mon tieth appeared for the Hufi'man estate, and- 31. A. Carlisle for the railroad corn pany. After the examination of wit nesses and argument by counsel the jury retired, and soon brought in a ver diet of $:250 for the Hatfman estate. M. A. Carlisle gave notice of appeal. "Walt," "Loss," "Guss,'' "Charlie" and "Back" made up a fishing excur sion last week, and being duly equipped with shad eggs and fishing tackle, boarded the down passenger train for Broad River. All were in the highest spirits when they left ; and the night be fore, in their dreams, they caught and brought home, and divided among their anxious friends, innumerable fishes. But, alas! their dIreams were not real ized-Old Probabilities howled around in the dismal swamps in such an ugly manner that the "boys" were glad to escape for their lives to the mountains. "Walt,'' being somewvhat shrewvder than the rest, managed by some means to board the train and get safely home, and there p)romnised his wife not to do so any more, but the other boys all got "strapped,'' and they wvere seen passing Pomaria and Kooin's trestle-enumer ating crosst ies. The union meetings are still iia pro gress here. Preaching every night, prayer meeting every morning at 9 o'clock, during which all the stores are closed and the mierchants and their cerks all repair to the honse of God and spend an hour in worshipping Him who gives its all good gifts. In the evenimg at 5o'clock meeting in Grace Chr reb, for men only; and at the same hour, meeting in Wighitmatn Chlapel, for ladies only. MuIch good has been done in the name of Jesus. Sinners have been con vited and converted, and all Christian people have heen enco:-raged and strengthened. On Sunday six persons, all young men were added to the church. There is now in our towvn only one young man. who lives here, that is not cotnnect edl with some branch of the Christian hurch.
