As stated in The Herald and -News inst week a convelnti on of delegates from the ('unItyAillane'5 in the Third Congressi~nal I)istriet wa3 held last Friday at Belton. ;Oonee. Pickens and Newberry Alliances had representa tives in the con vention. The Alliawes of A bbeville and Alldlersu,n nail held their meetings before the call for this coteir-etin was miate, and therefore had n1 rer"ular diele.:lts froni the alli anees prersent. A nermatlent organi7,all'01 was ef* fected by the election of I). J. (. Alexalder, of ()con_ee, ('i:tin:inan, and .Juo. T. )ntcai, of New brry, Secre tarv. The object of the metintlieg was to unite the alliances of the Third Dis trict in the selection of a canidlate to succeed Judge Cothran inl ('ongress, and adopt a platfori and to discuSS the situation geteraily. The plan of those who favored the call of this con Ventionl seems to ie for the Alliances of this District to adopt a platforni of prilciples. and unite in the selection of a candidate who will make the best and ablest cm1npion of the principles therein set forth, whether he be an alliance man or not, and then for the Alliances in the District to support him for Congress. At this convention, however, no candidate was endorsed. A platform was adopted, the provisions of which it is not desired to make pub lic. An executive conlltuittee was ap pointed consisting of one msetlnber from each county in tbe District. Mr. Jos. L. Keitt is the member from Newberry and chairnan of the committee.

Marks' pulpit in Grace church. The sermon was emlinently creditable to the learned doctor as was evinced by thle rivetted atttentioni of the large congregationl. At the close of the ser mloni thIe dloctor, in a brief, but plainif anid practical manner, p)resentedl the wanlts of a resolution passedl by synod re-questinlg tIle chlurches to erect three suitable dwellings for the college pro fessors to live ill. F'or the enI couragemnent of the conlgregationI he stated that the Lutheran churches inl Charleston had offered to build a dwelling for, the president of the col lege, leaving all the other Lutheran churches the small task of building the other two dwellings. At the close of his remarks a subscriptionl was taken lip, which aggregated the neat sum of $17:2.--A The doctor was well pleased with this and observed that he felt that Grace congregation would do well, hut iln this instanlce it had exceeded hlis best expectation. The evening service in Grace church was of a peculiarly solemn and tender nature. It was Rev. Marks' last ser 111n11 and at an early hour the church was filled with anIxious admirers to hear their beloved pastor and preachler for the last tinie. As he arose in the p)ulpit he uttered with intense tender nes5 tile nlame, JIesus, remarking that the nanme Jesus11 was the first word thlat he gave expression to when lie plreachled his first sermlon ill Grace chu-rch, and no(w nl leaving his dear congregation lIe wanlted to leave them i:: the arms of Jecsus.

Then followed-an emlinently imlpressive alnd affectiona1:te sermfon from tihe text, lie not referring to hlis taking leave of his congregation until Il hoen whir.h was thaen very bref,r but ere the close there were many eyes shedding tears mingled with love and pain.

Miss Esmeralda Boyle. who con tinues her travels amid the historic and picturesque sites and scenes of Erin, sends us with her compliments a little book which she had published in Dub lin anld dedicated to the children of Ireland.
