Darby in the Methodist Church from Hornaus 818, 'Tor I reckon that the sufferings of this present lime are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." The elo quent, divine .showed that Christians in common with all other men are subject to I vials and diliiciil tics, and not ?nfrequently ills most faithf.i I are the most sorely aHlioled, but thai theso aflliclions are sent in kindness, and are intended lor our good. Tho best school for the develo pmeul of a perfect character is the school of adversity, and in this school the Heavenly Father trains his children. But it should he remembered that these trials, however grievous, find an cud in the grave to eu> ry trio believer, and arc forevi r dissipated in the shining blaze of ihat "clor v which shall be revealed" in the world to come, and with which "iho suHerings of the present time are hot worthy t 1 be compared." Wo were therefore exhorted under all circuins'itnc s to c-1 i11?_r to the Lord and iuh iii the home, prepared for us by the Master. In the Presbyterian Church in the afternoon lev. J. D. A. Brown preached from the lltli Cliapt r of lloseu upou the rrbefiouaness ol God's ancient people, and 11 is mercy toward them, and showed in the same way that we are now wandering from Him into paths of sin and disloyalty w'li lo ll o is daily protecting us from tho consequences of disobedience by IJ is boundless love and lender mercy. JIc argued that if God's mercy wu3 thus excited for the rebelious, Ii ?w much greater must be His coinpa<sio n lor all who come to Him i:s true penitence and contrition of bean Tib 1 hristiau viilue of ltri11i11i le to our Maker was thoroughly impressed by the preacher. At the Lutheran Church Row .J. P. Kiscr look for his morning lex s the words, "Fervent in spirit, serving the Lord." He showed that it is the duty of Christians to exhibit earnest ness in the cause of Christ. Tint' this docs not necessarily mean the making of a loud noise, but ralhei the steady perseverance which ac complishes much. That a fervent spirit is an affectionate one, and that to serve Christ in truth, one must love his fellow-men. The I.utlicrauN Have white-washed tho fence around their Church.

It is said by travellers that (lowors outside of a cottage door is a sure index that hospitality reigns within. The truth of the adage is beautifully illustrated in the above cases The Kxcuraion? A large number of our citizens went to Columbia on Tuesday to wit ness the unveiling of tiio Conl'e lernte monument. Those who took the .'> o'clock morning train found the cars to crowd- d (hat they could scarcely ob tain standing room, much less sitting I he few who went up on the 11 o'clock train fared much bettor, securing comb nable Bints. As the different stations were passed the crowd was sensibly swelled until Columbia was reached, liverybody dreaded the return on the night train in consequence of the immense con eour.-c in the city, but it proved not. to be as bad as expected, several trains leaving and thus dividing the number. There was some [hilarity from too much lager hut not as much as might have been looked for under tbo circumstances We noticod in the cars latge repre sentations from Branehville, Lewis villo and Port Mvdto as well as from I our own town.

Nothing is lost by such conduct, and I now when harmony between tlie races is so essential it is particularly im I orient. Teacher** Convention - We are glad to sec that our worthy School Commissioner, whose elevation to this important position shows th e wisdom of the Democratic party, is taking an active part in the matter of a Teachers County Convention, and has appointed a Committee of which Mr. J. 15. ?. Holloway is Chairman to put tho mat .or into tangible shape. A better selection for this work could not have boon made as Mr. Holloway is a teacher of practical experience and ability. We have heard of* him in tho vicinity of St, Matthew's academy and we judge that ho. is not only making an impress upou the minds of his students, but upon tho hearts of his patrons. It con ducted with intelligence a Teachers Institution will bo. productive of much good. Uthor Counties have them working to great advantage, and why not Orangohurr ? There can be little advance in tho profession of teach lug if the teacher is confined altogether to his own ex perience. Li many counsels there is wisdom, and tlie contact of min Is increases knowledge; Humbly labeling iii the educational cause and deeply interested in its promotion, cspccally in our own Coun ty our hear and sympathies aro with tho movement on foot which wo hope will soon bo brought to a successful and harmonious iesue by those who are charged with Jta consummation.
