The Republican fiarty in this county held a meeting in Gravel Town on last Saturday, and it seems that the party present deposed Henry Kennedy as CountyChairman in Newberry County. It is late to be organizing after the campaign is over, but we suppose the real campaign, and the one they all feel interested in, is just now beginning in earnest, and that is the desire for some Federal position. There was a pretty fair turnout at the meeting and the foUowing address and resolutions were prepared and have been issued in pamphlet form: ADDRESS ISSUED BY THE NEWBERBY EEPUBIjCANS. NEwBEREY, S. C., March 16, 1889. To the Chairman and Members of th Republican State Executive ' - mittees of South Carotna, Colum : GENTLEMEN :-Owing to a feeing of dissatisfaction in the ranks of the Re Dublican Party of Newberry County, South Carolina, a mass meeting of the Republicans of the county, by general consent, assembled at Coleman's Hall, March 16th, 1889. The object of the meeting being ex plained by Mr. Samuel H. Chappell, an organization was effected with Mr. Simeon Young as Chairman, and Mr. Robert E. Williams as Secretary, amid much enthusiasm and earnestness. The meeting being ready for business, a general condemnation of the conduct of Henry Kennedy was indulged in by Messrs. B. B. Boozer, Samuel H. Chappell, Peter Simmons, Allen Rice and others, stating that he had swindled the Republicans of the coun ty out of money in the last campaign by telling them that it was to pay ex press charges gn ballots. and to meet the demands made on him by Hon. E. M. Brayton, Cha: maa of the State Ex ecutive Committee ; and that he had actively participated in the Democratic primary election, and that he has al ways, in order to be elected to State Conventions,practiced unworthy meth ods by virLue of his position as County Chairman ; and by virtue of this same position he has tried to pack the Coun ty Executive Committee in his own in terests in obeying the last order of the State Chairman to reorganize the county, by having .no particular day set for an election of precinct chairmen; in one instance taking a train at eight o'clock at night, and holdinga meeting himself between that time and twelve o'clock midnight, and in another town ship by sending men sixteen miles to hold a meeting commencing and end ing at night--operating thus in pre cincts where it was not Iikely he could prevail by fair means. He claimed that from two to twelve men were sufficient to elect precinct chairmen. It was further.argued that by these means Henry Kennedy had caused party demoralization, rendered himself obnoxious and unworthy of con idence of the best, thinking men of the Party. On motion of B. W. Nance, the name of S. H. Chappell was offered for County Chairman, vice Henry Kennedy, here by-petitioned to be removed. .On motion, it was Resolved, That a committee .of seven be appointed by the Chairman Qf this meeting to declare the sense of the same on the uestion before the Republicans of Newberry County. The following committee was appoin ted: Sam H. Chappell, B. B. Boozer, 1C. Simmons, Robert E. Williams, |Julius Wallace, Jordan Gary, Fred Moore. (Signed) S.NLEON YOUNG, Chairman. Attest: R. E.

WHER ES, The Committee of Seven ~retired to draft resolutions as to what will add diost to the honor, credit, respeatability and advancement of the Republican Party in this State and County, as developed by this most earnest and enthusiastic meeting, would SOLvED. 1. That an insidious effort has been made to influence improperly the minds of the colored voters of the Republicau Party to give prefe:-ence to candidates for official position to men of their own color and race; that such efforts are contrary to party principles, and untenable, and are earnestly pro tested against; and that Samuel H. Chappell is recommended as County Chairmian of Newbert-y County, S.'C., and David R. Phifer for the position of Postmaster at Newberry C. H., S. C. 2. That we take this first opportunity to express gratitude for the restoration of Republican Government under the administration of President Harrison, and thiat we use our best efloris for harmony, peace and good will. 3. That we regard the appointment of W. H. IH. Miller as Attorney Gene ral a wise one, and this, with the appontment of uncompromising United States MJarshals and United States Dist rict Attorneyvs will inspire the unlawfully disposed with a whore somje respect for the power of the United States Government.

The forenoon service was more than usually full and impressive, and in keeping with the solemnity of the lenten season. The sermon was based upon first Cor rinthians2: 2. Mr. .Hanckel began his a discourse by happily contrasting the humble yet profoundly erudite apostle who was determined "not to know any a tling save Jesus Christ and him cruel e fled," with the modern agnostic who vaunts his ignorance of the Eternal, a and of all spiritual truth. Mr. Hauckel d said: The pretentious scientists, because they have entered upon the boundaries e of the domain of science and tabulated d natural phenomena, think they know g all things. Paul did not disregard learn ing and mental discipline, for the great logician and metaphysician was a bril I liant exemplification of the benefits de p rived from culture, as when he stood o in the midst of Mars' Hill, and preached to the Athenians, reasoned before Felix and plead his cause before Agrippa, or I wrote the fifteenth chapter of 1 Cor. . Paul was equipped with learning and acumen, as any scholar of this time, yet counted these things nothing compared f with the knowledge of the blessed Redeemer. It is a false hope for any teacher to expect a blessing upon the r 'foolishness of his preaching,' who fails a to cultivate the natural powers of the s mind. Every branch of knowledge and e learning necessarily enlarges and illu mines the mind and quickens its grasp. Yet Paul neither trusted nor used the t arts of mere rhetoric, logic or human a learning to enforce divine truth. He did not preach mere dissertations. His preaching was a complete, positive and - t tangible testimony to the supernatural Christ and his supernatural truth-the illustration of the new premises which a had come into the world. And it was through the potential agency of the ac 2 companying Spirit that Paul and his e brethren, of whom he declared himself the least, were triumphant. It was owing to the fact that Paul y aloried in nothing but the Crpss-keep , iug his wonderful natural gifts in abey ance-that made undeniable the pre e ternatural interposition of the spirit, and by which he was enabled to confound and silence the most eloquent of his opponents. af The learned and devout priest very a truly said, for various reasons, there is a too great distrust of the power of God's truth. Men cannot be "moralized," said Mr. flanckel, they must be "evangel ized." There is a subtle temptation to g which, the Church is now exposed. The Church rises to the dignity and glory of its mission when it proclaims with r Pauline faith the preternatural t' h of - the incarnate Christ and his<ivation of guilty souls. Only then will divine truth pierce the conscience and carry conviction to mind and heart The - Church of Christ is not founded upon if a sentiment. It cannot descend to the e world with compromises and conces sions that it might win souls. Builded upon the Rock of Ages, and pro d nounced in its faith, its work is to es i. tablish the kingdom whose gates are d open to all believers. It is not within human power or )f time to develop the fullness of the bless y ings of the gospel. Man is everywhere -to be viewed as a guilty sinner, but we have full and free provision made for k the most desperate needs of the soul, ). whichw when accepted and applied will il make it ready for the kingdom. God's mind is made known towards us in "the truth asit is inJesus."It sets forth not rabbinical learning, nor Hel lenic wisdom, neither simply a code of n morals nor yet a system of doctrines, s. but ".Christ and him crucified." The sermon was of more than usual >r length. buit it was replete with pro found passages of forceful interest. Its t presentation of doctrinal points, man's relation to God, and the collateral bene d fits of the Gospel were highly edi fying. In allusion to the reform move ments of the day he said, that while in themselves good, nothing but s the operations of the Holy Spirit will afford satisfying relief. Temperance alone can not avail while "licentious ness was eating out the .very heart's e core of society." Education is not the s, only panacea. Science will not suffice. Let temperance, education, science and all the moral forces and factors move 0 along their respective lines, and unfold te and expand their ennobling principles. n 1'7(is to the streaming splendor of the triumphant Cross of Christ alone that we can look for restoration, for it is e, "the power of God unto salvation." Mr. Hanckel closed his eloquent ser mon with the following earnest words: The Giospel of Christ carries its message r. of love into the darkest haunts of sin, h and tells every fallen man that there is mercy that can reach his case, blood 6 that can wash away his crime, and >f power that can change his heart.

It is gratifying to state that the Teachers' Association at Prosperity on last Saturday was a success-one of the best we have had th is school term. ts Three of those that' had been ap s. pointed to read papers were present: SMiss Jo. Langford and Messrs. Ed a- wards and Kib'e.. The last named, aV however, was cal ed away on business . . before his subject was announced. m' The teachers seemed deeply interested vin the meetiug. They did not seem afraid to ask or answer questions. S"How to Teach Geography" was dis cussed earnestly, and at some length. It was evident that the teachers think that the old method of simply having aquestions answered is a failure, and en that the teacher is called upon to make the subject a study in order that the ipupil may be interested and profited. at Somec one asked the question, "How shall I prove to pupils that the earth rotates on its ax:s?" No satisfactory :> answer was given as to the best method e, of making it clear to a beginner. T here was some difference of opin ion as to how long~ the school shouldi be in session each day. Some thought Vthat six hours are enough, others though that a longer session than this e. is necessary. The teachers expressed a desire to hold an Institute in . the county this summer. If it is possible to hold one, Sthe necessary arrangements will be ns mnade at an ea.ly day. Lr The Association wvill meet at New berry on the third Satmn day in April. We earnest~ly desire that a large num Sber of teachers will be present. K. 'rs. pe You can get your horse fedfor 2cts. at C.- ~.. FLoYD's. ti A Letter or Inquiry.

In 1S70 her name was transferred to Grace Evangelicn Lut l-ran Church, r Prosperity, when at the time of her > death she was one of the faithful mem 1 bers of the congregation, and the Wo - man's Home and Foreign Mis=ion Socic;y. One of the most (" ed 1 wives and mothers, ever re:1' .o sacri fice self for those ': i s loved, her f pleasure was tQ.fake them enjoy. Re " p d..a-s of pelotini:is nad so bre'ea her robust constitution, that, two months or mor3 she felt her end was near, and so expres.ed herself. Saturday previous to. her dea h, on - Tuesday, she was about her home and t out at the garden for a sb'ort while, giving some directions there. Soon after midnight the last attack came and, though all was done that physi - cians. loving husband and devoted - children could do, great was her suffer ing until ended by death, a little befo.e 8 o'clock Tuesday evening. So well and widely known it was not strange that the congrega' Eon was so very large r to pay the last tribute of respect to her . memory. Revs. J. A. Sligh, A. J. Eowers, a.d M. J. Epting assisted the pastor, in the funeral sevices. In the midst of suffering, sister Wise did not forget her faith and her hope for the future, leaving to comfort her sad and weeping family the thought, that though she must o out from her home on earth never to cheer it again with - her presence, she was going to the bet ter, brighter home with Jesus; and though their family reunion must have a vacant place about the fireside, and at the family board a vacant chair, they may again be united never to part. They weep a little longer on this side, she, amid the joy unspeakable, watches t and waits on the other. May each pass over safely. C. A. M. Advertised Letters. o7OST0-!-". Ni-.r.'r, S. C.

For some five years I suffered ,with an eruption of the skin that gave me great pana J. annioyauce. I tried V different blcod :uaed ies, but although .gaining strength, the itching was un . relieved. I finally concluded to take a thorough course oft Brandreth's Pills. I took six each night for four nights, V then five, four, three, two, lessening - each time by onc., and then for one month took one every ight, with the happy result that now iny skin is per fectly clear and has been so ever since.
