September 6th 1870.
Mr. Editor :
We hail promised ourselves n
hearty hand shaking with you at the
Orangeburg Missionary Union, but
were disappointed. We will givo
you a few ?lots for your paper. Re
ceiving an appointment from the
Ant inch (Jhurch to represent her in th e
Union, last Thursday morning, after
bidding adieu to the loved one* at
home, we started out to join our
venerable Bro. Prickelt who kindly
offered us a seat. Hero we refreshed
ourselves for the journey. This be
ing over, we hitched up "old Brandy"
to the boggy and made for the scene
of action, We ma lo Congar'ee
Church about 10 o'clock on Friday.
Here we met the rest of our delcga
lion, Rev. Htoudetimire, Bro. J. 11.
Udder, ami his hind lady. The
Union convened 11 o'clock A. M.
The Introductory sermon was preach
ed by Rev. IS. 11. Graves. The
preacher gave us a clear view of our
duty to work lor the Master. The
former Clerk enrolled the delegates,
and seven churches were found to be
represented by full delegations. Rev.
J. M.IIurlong was elected Moderator
and Bro. J. H. Felder Clerk. Li
ters from the different churches, were
read by Brethercn Fehler and M. L.
limiting. All but one gave glowing
accounts of revival meetings. Wo
lelt as if we could see the missionary
.star of our religious horizon rising
with all of her beauty and fulnos'.
After this Bro. .J. II. fehler arose
and delineated the life and services of
that man of God, Rev. I*. A. Buyck,
enrapturing the large audience as he
'spoke wf hia puro eWiottu.t ehiirautor, I
ami wound up asking a committee to
he appointed to prepare a just tribute
to Ins memory to be recorded among
the minutes of tho body. We then
adjourned to the call oft he moderator.
A goodly number assembled at night
to hear Rev. J. I). Prickelt. He
preached to a large and attentive
congregation. Wo heard many say
this was one of the best sermons they
ever heard from the. venerable
brother.
Saturday the Union was called to
order by tho moderator at 9 o'clock
A. M. Alter an hour spent in pray
er led by Rev. J. D. Prickelt, we pro
ceeded to business. Nearly all of tho
n utinu business was completed by
11 o'clock, when the Union gave way
for preaching. Rev. K. 11. Graves
continued his thoughts of yesterday in
u warm sermon on "Christian Duty."
Then followed Bro. J. II. Fehler in
the discussion on "How a church
should dial with delinquent in t n
hers." We wish thcTiMics had been
there to have followed the speaker
through bis thought'and give them
to the public. They were r quested,
but the brother refused to have them
published. Yon know the good
brother is long winded, but he kept
the large audience enchained ail
through. One brother who had bjen
a delinquent over 12 months made a
solemn resolve never to be one again
while he lived. Brethren .J. A.
Ilulman, K. II. Graves, J. D. Prick
elt ai.d Win. Gafncyjoined iu the
discussion and made interesting n I
dresscs. Ktcrnity ah no will reveal
the good that has been lone the Con
garee Church by this discussion. At a
late hour in the afternoon the Union
adjourned to the call of the Moder
ator. Rev. J. A. 11 n!inan preached
at night with much power to a large
and attentive congregation.
Sunday the much beloved pastor
Rev. Hurlouffofthis church aunuunc
ed during tho meeting that 9 o clock
I A. M., would be appropriated to Imp
I lizing the converts of the tho protrac
j ted meeting, wlicn8 willing converts,
j were led into the liquid waves if Mr .
Oliver's mill pond and thora I ri;d
wiih their Master in awit ry grav i
j in the presence of a large gathering.
At the close of this scene we repaired
J to the church to hear the missionary
sermon, preached by Rev. J. A, Huf
man ton very attentive audience. He
is a very zealous speaker. Rav. J. J.
II Stoudermire closed in a few i<u
prcssive remarks. Here again Bro.
Felder by requcs! arose and made
one of bis ch a metis tic and effective
charity spec-lies at the conclusion of
which a large amount (considering
the times) was collected for the Union
purposes. Thus ended the best incit
ing your correspondent ever had the
pleasure to attend, and many, old and
young, made the same remark.

If any one supposes that the above
body is dead, the lively meeting at
Corinth Baptist Church ou Friday
August 29th will convince him to the
contrary.
At an early hour on Friday morn
ing the Delegates and friends bad
assembled. Elder .J. Huffman who
bud been previously appointed to
preach the IutioductarySermon was
not present, and by request, Elder J.
L. Rollings took his place and preach
ed one of bss soul-stirring sermons
from Phillipinns, 1st Chap, and
XXI. vcr., which was felt through
out the entire meeting.
After the Introductory Sermon,
the roll Was called, and it was found
that eight churches were represented
by delegations. The Union was
then fully organized by the election
of Elder D. \V. Cuttiuo Mod orator,
and M. J. Jenkins Clerk.
After the organization the usual
routine of business was trausactel,
Elder W. J. Snider, Chairman of the
Executive Committee, presented a
report of their labors during the last
three months. 1 will give you a short
swiopsis which may prove interesting
to your renders:
Bro. F. P. 1 obertson, a student
from the Seminary at Louisville
Kentucky, was employed during his
vacation There were few accessions
to the churches by baptism. The
work was mainly towards a revival
of pure religion among the churches.
It was the opinion of the Union that
the members needed stirring up to the
importance of the Missionary work.
Bro. Robertson gave entire satisfac
tion, and the Union feel that he was
the right man in the right place.
Days of labor, S)0; sermons preached,
72; Sunday school addresses, 8; con
versions, 16; baptisms, 11. I could
give you a detailed account of the
contributions from the various
churches, bul suffice it to say Bro.
Robertson was paid off in full, and
has gone back to the Seminary. car
rying with him the prayers of these
people. Sat unlay morning Elder J.
R. Edwards conducted religious
service*. At 11 o'clock, Elder E. II.
Cuttiuo preached a most excellent
sermon from 1st Kings, XIX Chap.,
IX. vcr. After which Elder D. W.
Cuttiuo read an able essay on the
duties of Deacons. The subject for
discussion was then read, and was
opened by Elder D. W. Cuttiuo,
followed by Bro. J. Barrett. On
Sunday morning a Sunday school
ma.-s meeting was held,and addressed
were made by Uhlers J. L. Rollings,
W. R. Parier aud R. J. Edwards. At
11 o'clock Kider W. R. Parier, having
been previously appointed to preach
the Charity sermon, was at his post,
ami preached from Isaiah LI I Chap,
and III ver., to a crowded house. It is
seldom we see such attention paid to |
preaching as was manifested. As
proof of this earnestness a handsome
contribution was taken up. The busi
ness of the Union was closed with a
vote of thanks to the members and
friends of Corinth for kindness
shown to the members of the Union.
The Union then adjourned to meet
with Mt. Tabor Church on Friday
before the iifth Sun 'ay in November
next, provided tho Baptist State
Conven ion does not mcei ai hu iiiuii
time, li it does meet alt Im! timo,
then the Union is to mecf r.n Friday

meeting be published iu the Orauge

Remembering His Old Slaves.
Jesse H. Drake, known to tho
people of Nash county as having
been Chairman of the old County
Court, a very bright Mason and a
liigh officer in the order, and a most
miserly man, died at his home, about
six miles from Rocky Mount, iu Nash
county, on Friday, the 1st of August.
Born iu 1800 he would have attaihe 1
his seventy-ninth year on Septembor
3rd, proximo. lie left a very fair
estate, worth perhaps ?10,000 to
three of his former ? slaves, to wit:
Calvin Drake, Aaron Drake, Ju lah
Drake, for their lives, with rein tin
der to their children. His will, writ
ten on the 29th day of March 1877,
was witnessed by Dr. Whitehcad,
Mr. .Samuel Mandibourne and several
others. He leaves all of his estate
teal, personal and mixed of whatso
ever nature, to these parties, as above
stated, after rehearsing that ''they
had been his faithful slaves and had
remained with him since freedom,
nursing, caring for him iu his old
nge,' and he desired thus to show his
gratitude. Calvin aud Aaroc are
named executor, without liability.
Tho executors found $1,400 in gold,
and $3,031,44 iu good paper on C. W*.
Grandy and Sons of Norfolk. The
tract of land contains 400 acres. This
should be noticed at the North to
evince the fierce feeling of anger
entertained by old s'aveholders

Camping Oat.
The editor of the Buffalo "News"
has been camping out, and tells his
experience to bis rcadcrj. Ho tnnie
with him one wife, three fishing-rods,
two babies and a shot gun, with the
necessary clothing, kettles, pans and
the rest of the paraphernalia. His
tent was' pitched next to that of a
newly married couple on one side,
and that of two elderly raadien sisters
on the other side. "Elysium was a
fool to that camp," says the editor,
and we can well believe it. "There
were shade trees, brooks, mooas an 1
poisoning in abundance, and when
we all retired for the night, there was
not a heart unmoved by tho solemn
stillness of the "scene." But the edi
tor's tent was too near that of tho
newly married couple. The young
man was reading Tennyson out loud
to his bride by the light of nkero<a:ie
lamp, three kisses to each line. The
old maids on the other side kept
whispering : ''Amanda, suppose a
man was to come to our tout!" There
was a wild shriek, and everybody
rushed out in his night clothes, think
ing that one of the aucient virgin*
had been bitten by a rattlesnake. Of
course she hadu't. A cow began
bellowing for her lost calf, an 1 every
one swore it was a bear. The men
got out with their guns and killed one
of the wagon horses. The tent fell
down about 3 o'clock iu the morning,
ami a heavy shower of rain about
daybreak soaked every one to the
skin. The editor's family all have
the bronchitis, and he announces
that his tent and complete apparatus
for camping out are for sale.
Quoting Scripture.
Now ?bat the civilized world is
socially opposed to slavery, wo would
like to see some of the old war ser
mons that proved by quotations from
the Bible the righteousness of Afri
can slavery. There is nothing truer
than the idea that the Scriptures can
be quoted to prove anything. Some
men even quote Scripture to condemn
dancing, when a fair reading of tho
holy word would lead toa different
