January 80 eHighest of all in Leavening F n0 eBSOJ THE MEETING OF TY3E DAPTISTS. In the State of South Carolina There are o these PenlAst more than 8,Z,0oo They have Thirty-three ALsociations. -4omiie of t ie associations are divided itto Setions, valled unions. The Reedy River association, composed of tlit Bap tist churehes in the counties of New berry and Laurens. used to be divided into four sections, but at the last asso cation it was resectioned and divided into six. 'I he churches in Newberry conuiOse the sixth section. We have eleveu churches, some of them quite weak, with a nenherbhip of 7:2. This is the meeting we have just held, and the proceedings of which I herewith submit. The meeting was held in tbe interest of the Centennial of Missions. The introductory sermon was preach ed by Rev. J. W. Blanton, of Prosper ity, who has recently comne anong us. His text was Janes 5: 1N. He told us, firt, of what prayer involved-praise, thanksgiving, making known our wants : second, of God's willingness to hear prayer ; third, of some of its lim itations. It must be with reverence, in the scope of God's will, and with I faith. Fourth, of some proper objects o f prayer. His sermon was timely and right well enjoyed by those of as whc heard it. After the sermon, and prayer by W. J. Langston, the nanesof the delegates from the churches were enrolled. The delegation was quite small. only six of the eleven churches being represented. At night Rev. E. J. Forrester, the pastor at Greenwood, S. C., delivered an address on "Missionary Progress of the Century," wherein he did mjost clearly and conclusively show that there had been progress made; first, in missionary conviction ; second, in con fidence ; third, in the lay of the field (the doors of the nations are now wide open); fourth, in missionary agencies. I can't give any account of the speech. It was packed full of thought just such as our people need. Bro. J. L. Vass, ol the Baptist Orphanage, was also with us, and gave us his idea as to the Cen tennial movement. . On Saturday morning Bro. H. T. Smith led us in devotion 1 exercises, and Bro. Forrester again spoke to us, this time on the subject of foreign mis sions. He dwelt principally on the "call" of our Lord to this work. First, He calls us to it. "How the Lord haE empha.tized this call since it was made' And then the rewards of obedience. th( joy of doing the work, of having donf it, and then the reward awaiting tht faithful worker in heaven !" When Bro. Forrester was done, Bro, J. W. BNanton impressed upon out minds the fact that the New Testa mient itself was largely but an accoun1 of missionaries and I heir work. Bro Vass called our attention to the changed relations our churches sustain to for eign missions. It used to be a close door, with a church before it prayinj that it might be opened. Now it is at open door, with a church unwilling t< enter. We spent a very pleasant tim( in listening to these brethren speal thus, but my 'ime came next on th( programme, va d I must speak on bon ilissions, which I did to the best of m3 ability. This is a great work our peo ple are trying to do. We are trying tc give the gospel to the destitute of oui own country. We have 406 missiona ries, 51 laborers among the negroes o the South, h' with the Cubans, 3 among the foreign white population especially in Lou ,ville, St. Louis Kansas City, Texas and Missouri anc the Indians of the Indian Territory These missionaries baptized last yeal 5,349, added 9,987 to the mUissiot churches, constituted 244 churches built 143 houses of worship. Ther< were expended in this work $299,366 Brethren Blanton, Smith and McIn tosh made speeches also on this sub ject, which wve feel will do good. Saturday afternoon was devoted t< the discussion of woman's work in mis sions. Bro. Vass preached a nice littl< sermonette from Romans 16: 6, "Greel Mary, who bestowed much labour or us."~ H e said (1) the women were help ing Pauil in his work, and (2) they were doing so successfully. In addition t< this, he went on and gave us a goot practical speech and told us how country church might be thoroughl; organized for this work. At night we listened to an address or the Baptist Orphanage by Bro. Vass He said he would do as preachers somet times did-take a text, and depart froni t. (This promise be most piousl, kept.) He read very effectively Psaln 41: 1-3. He told us what the orphanag< was not. It was not a scho')l, thougi the children would be given a commto school education. Many who contrib: ute to the orphanage cannot give thei own children a collegiate education Nor was it a board'ng-house nor a hos pital; but it is to L a "home" for des titute orphans. It will be on the cot tage plan,- each cottage a complet home for twenty-four children, witl their matron and teacher. He is nov building a large brick structure, whic1 is to be for an infirmary, but for th preent it wvill be used as an orphanage It will accommodate about forty chil dren. He tells us he is in a dilemma He lacks $l,000) to finish this building and furnish it. 'When he goes dowl and sees the building he urges th workmen to hasten tihe work, but whe1 he goes to his office and looks at bi treasury, he hopes for a rainy day les the workmen get the house done befor the money is in to pay for it. We ca help by sending out-grown clothing bedding, money, and in other way that will suggest themselves. On Sunday morning the write preached the missionary sermon. A co letion wvas taken, amounting to $15.2 Bro. Vass preached at the Secon church and in the evening he spoae t the children of tile First church on ti children's cottage. At night he preacl ed at the First church, using as his tes Romnans IS: 14, "For as many as are Ie by thte Sp'irit God ; they are the sons< God.'' He spoke first of what was it volved in worship-new life, the lent in ofth pirit,o God, and heirshil Seond, the dtuties following thes things involved. Third, the privilege of worship; and, fourth, How shall n become sons of God ? Not by natur: birth, nor by ceremonies, but throug fathu in Christ. 'After the sermion a collection we taken for tihe orphatnage, amountingi $j.2tl. Thie union then adjourned. \W want to say, we were especially please -with the singing during these meeting both as to its mnatter andl manner. Ti sono s did but btreathe the very spirit< the hospel.

Our la grippe folks are all improving and able to get out again. We hear of no new cases. Very few of our farmers observed Monday as being Salesday at New berry. Messrs J. D. Kinard and B. C. Counts, of Newberry College, have been on a visit home. One month of the New Year has rolled away and with it our mishaps and short comings are sealed and will face us at a future day. How fast time Last week the weather was fine and bracing and some oat sowing has been going on in this section. Owing to the severe winter eariy sowing has rather a blue appearance. We are rather lonely with out the familar racket of the old reliable Lau- I rens. WVe hope she will soon be re- s placed on the line again through our quiet little community.a Quite a number of the colored people g pay tax on four or five dead dogs to the I family and then cry out hard times and ti scarcity of money. A dog killer could a do some good work in this neighbor- c hood. Our quiet Sabbaths are not disturbed 0 nov by thbe rattling noise of the Sun- d day train. God gave us the sevedth c day as a day of rest fromi labor and toil and why should man break the Sab bath.e Our young folks enjoyed another h quiet social gathering at Mr. Werts n little cottage on Friday night. The t young ladies say this is leap year and they are going to enjoy themselves. Leap girls leap and let us all enjoy our selves,. We notice the various newspapers g are having a great deal to say concern- a ing Governor Tillman and that he willc likely have a successor. Thbis will not be an off year in politics, consequently it is getting time for the ball to conm-s nence rolling. Messrs. Kibler Bros. are fencing in a large pasture preparatory to raising their gIork at borme as well as convyen ience for other stock. The day hals co~e whetn our farmers as a class of )eople should try harder to raise their supplies at home and not depend en tirely upon the good old North. Whieb has been almost the main itake for furnishing the farmers. Ar. B, B. Schuhmplert showed us a few (ays ago an old Spaniish coin bear ing dare as far back as1802. Mr. Schumi pert says he plowed the coin up some time ago near his residence. The coin is a peculiar(one and has the appearance of years past and gone. Ask him to let Items from St. Paul's. NArs.
