HEX It Y T. T1IOMPNOX EDITOR. TO OUR CORRESPONDENTS. The Correspondents of The Darlington News throughout the Cou.ity, are particularly requested to bear in mind that we greatly desire to have from them, as often as possible, (the oftener the better) the Local Eveuts of their sections. We want the news every week, if it is only a line. TALLULAH SPRING. We desire to cell attention again tetbe iu)|tortanceot improvingTal- Inlrib Spring and its surroundings before another summer comes upon us. Since these improvements can be made at a very small outlay there is no excuse f< r not having them, particularly as the matter was taken under jconsidt ration by our citiseus in the most earnest manner something less than a year ago, when a public meeting was held and a committee was appoint ed to look into it If that commit tee has ever made any report, we have never heard of it. We trust that they will let us bear from them at once. In order that we may re fresh their recollections as to what their duties are, we republish the following extract trom The Dab- UNGTON NEWS of July 19,1888: “At this stage of the proceedings some member of the club moved that Mr. Manne be beard on the aobject of Tallulah Spring. That gentleman responded, and so forci bly did he present the benefit which would be derived from placing this delightful resort in proper condition and constructing a neat drive to it, that the meeting nuconscionsly, and without any apparent effort, wasdivested of its political aspect, and being resolved iuto a ‘commit tee of the whole,’ proceeded to dis- eosa matters relating to *the public welfare’ with Mr. Nettles still in the • ebait. It was soon apparent that this object which the Darlington Nkws has been advocating for so long a time was about to be accom plished, and that he improvement of Tallulah Spring is a thing of the near future. A subscription list was at once opened, and the sum of •62 was promptly coutributed by those pieseuL The interest in the movement seems to be so decided, that this amount will, in all proba bility, be greatly increased within the next few days. A committee ot five, consisting of Messrs. 0. S. Mc Cullough, R. W. Boyd, 0. Alexan dor, J. 0. Blaokweii and W. F. Dais gan, was appointed by the chair man to take the whole matter in charge, and more particularly to negotiate with the owner ot the property with a view to obtaining certain privileges. ••The ’mport-ance of this matter cannot be overestimated, and we arc truly glad to know that so efti eienta committee has it in charge. The Mineral Spring, which is at present the great resort, and the diive leading toil, havecontribnted no little to rendering our town as attractive as it is. With this addi tional advantage which possesses such striking attractions, Darling ton bids fair to become one of the pleasantest places in the State.” THE MORMON MISSIONARIES. From the various sources from which the information comes, there is no longer a shadow of a doubt that a band of at least thri-e Mor mon “m asiouarie*” are expounding their peruicioua doctrines in the neighborhood cf Oadell’s turpentine farm, about seven miles north-west of Hartsville, and that it is the pur pose of these worthy gentlemen to ultimately make op a party of emi grants fr jm that section oi Darling ton, who will be aent oat to Utah aa “converts.” Since this is the case, we sincerely trust that the more intelligent people in that lo cality will interest themselves suf* ficiettly in this grave matter toeus deavor to impress the ignorant and weak apostates with the gravity of the error they are making. The Mormon “elders” would not remain iu the nerth-western part of Dar lington County for ao long a time it they did not receive some degree of encouragement from those whom they are seeking to eon vert. If these could only be brought to re alise bow uuuaturil aud repulsive are the teaets ot the Mormau taitb, we believe that it would uot be long before the “elders” would flud that “their room was more acceptable then their company.” CONFEDERATE PENSIONS, ily papers published the I days ago that the State i Board had passed upon a ' of applications from Dar- . County, and it was hoped, therefore, that, by this time, some heard from their applications. The Columbia correspondent of the Ntirt and Courier, referring to this matter, says: “CoinplHjnts are made of delay in tbe pavrueet ot the prnaioiis an*> thomed at the last peasidll of tbi* Legi«lat ure. It must be remember I ed that each application for a pen sion must lie considered by three boaids—first, the county board of tHru-don examiners, next the Stale board of i eusiouers ami Dually the ; count! board of pension commis sioners, composed ot Confederate veterans. All of this red tapecon- Nuu.es time, and some counties have uot yet choseu the board last men tioned.” TbeiMerk of the Court of Dar I ngtuu Couuty being interviewed iu repaid to the matter states that the Pension Board has called on him for (he names of tbo-o who were recommended by the County Survivors’ Association to act with the Couuty Pension Board, but that he was unable to furuisb the tames as he had no official record of them in his office, it seems tba' the law requires the several County Associations to forward to their re spective Clerks of Court a certi fied list ot these names. Our Couu ty Survivors’ Association having ueglected this in iter, their alteu- tiou is called to it. As we go to press it is learned that a meeting to celebrate the con teuniai of the iuauguratiou ot Wasuiugton will be held in th Baptist Church at Darlington on Tuesday woruiug, April 30tb, at nine o’clock. Brief addresses ap' propriate to the occasion will be delivered by Col. B. VV. Edwards audCapt. W. C. Coker. Harmony Presbytery. (Reported for the News ) The Presbytery of Harmouy met at Mt. Zion Church, Sumter Coau ty, Friday, the 12th iusL, and ad journed ou the following Monday. The opening sermon was preached by the Rev. W. L. Boggs, the res tiring Moderator from lieb. IY. 16. “Let us therefore come boldly uuto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and flud grace to help in time of need.” The alien, dance was good, aud the sessions of the Presbytery pleasant aud barmouious. The Hev, D. S. Mc Allister was elected Moderator, and Gen. W. E James Temporary Clerk. From tbe reports of the Chinches it appeared that abnit two bun died additions had been made to the roll of coniinuuicauts dining tbe year. The first Friday iu July was appointed as a day of fastiug and prayer for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. The Churches of Wedgvfield and Summertou pre sented calls for the pastoral ser vices of the Hev. W L. Boggs. After bearing from all parties con coined, Presbytery declined to place tbe calls iu the bauds ot Bro. Boggs, believing that it would be deteriinmtal to tbe cause to remove him from bis present fiehl ot labor where he is reuderiug most effic cut service. Keedy Creek Church pre seuted a call for the pastoral servi ces of the Hev. D. B. McAllister. The call was placed i>i his bands, aud bis pastoral relation with Ued Bluff Church dissolved. Commissions were appointed to arrange for the formation ot pas toral groups iu Maiioo a..d (’lies teifleld Counties. The Hev. J. G Richards, the Evangelist of the Presbytery, reported the orgauiz i- tiou of two uow Churches iu Ches terfield County; oue at tba Court House, and tbe other at Orange Hill. The Hev. A. M. Sale was re ceived trom Knoxville Presbytery, aud ia supplying the Churches ot Center Point aud Hepbzihah The Revs. T. C. Whaling and James McDowell, with Messrs. J. C. Coit and R. M. Cooper were elected Commissioners to the Gen eral Assembly which meets iu Chat tanooga iu May. The Presbytery held interesting conferences ou Home and Foreigu Missions. Tbe good ptopleof Mt. Zion, with their accomplished pastor, the Bev. W. S. Bean, did all in their power for the comtort and happiness of their guests, aud after a hearty vote of thauks for the generous hVgpiulitv of the people, Presby tery adjourn ed to meet at Sumter, Friday night befote the first Sabbath of October.

Suppose that e tch snake should begin to swallow the one in frent ot him. In what way would the resultitnr figure, after each snake had sw.dlotvt d he one in fn nt of him, difl-r from the origin.il cnclef There were many diverse opinions upon th<> subject, some ol them en tering the consideration of the fourth dimension ot space, b>-caui-e any one of the snakes would have so allowed up tbe two iu front of him ami yet have been swallowed by the two in back of him, ami therefore would be both inside nmi outside of bis two fellows.—A’etr* and Courier, Possible Rivals of .1 ate- (News and Courier.)
