SPECIAL COIJRT IN FLORENCE ... | To Try Negroes Charged with Brofial Murder. Columbia, November 12:?Governor Ansel has ordered a special term of court to try the negroes thought t" have been implicated in the kill-: in$r of Mr E M Move of Ebenezer.; in Florence county, the court to ? commence the fourth Monday in November. The special term was ordered upon vquest of Solicitor Walter H Well-, of the 12th judicial circuit. , Clarence Ham was named some i j days ago as a principal in this case. | ^ He is the one who is said to have con- , tessed, and to have implicated two i t other negroes, Alex Wellington and J Willie Burroughs, who were placed under arrest. In Ham's alleged l confession it was stated that the | motive was robbery, and that Wei- i lington did the shooting. There was : considerable excitement in Florence at the time Mr Move was killed, and | it was feared that mob violence : might result following the finding of the supposedly guilty persons, i The excitement subsided after the ' 1 arrest of Ham. , I4 For cold-blooded brutality and the I insensate greed that instigated it, 1 1 the crime committed is strikingly j& suggestive of the murder of the la^ mented Julian Wilson, at Cooper X,? postoflfice several years ago, for C which three negroes paid the penal- , $lty on the gallows. On Friday night, : i ^October 28, Mr Moye returned from [ 23^*church with Howard Cole, a neigh- ] ?bor,and got out of Mr Cole's buggy ' - *V?* at his gate. He was a widower and ] f|i|- lived alone. ,i A woman living near the place 1 claims to have heard a gun shoot I about the time he is supposed to have been shot, near 11 o'clock, but no investigation was made. The neighborhood is thickiy settled and 1 is one of the best in the State. Mr 1 Move's own gun had been used to , kill him and was found at the house. 1 The murderer had probably concealed himself in a room with rob- | berv in view, for Mr Moye was 1 known to have sold some hogs and cotton the day before. He was evi- 1 dently surprised by his assailant, for 1 ^ nough he had a pistol in his pocket, Ate had not ft templed to draw it. 1 To Close Thanksgiving. 1 t.

The disciples, perplexed, astounded. by the things that they had heard from his lips, did not comprehend the true situation. They evi aenuy mouciii iu?i ujcu* iuum ohm i be something parabolic in bis uiter- i ances. They would indeed wateb with him. but they were weary and sank Into slumber.

Olivet toward tlie Garden of Gethsemaue. rise word Getbseman-* signifies oiipress. Tradition has it that this GarJen belonged to the family of which the Aj?ostle< .Tohn and James were members, and that for this reason the Lord and his disciples were privileged to feel themselves at home there. St. Marie, the writer of one of the Gospels. but not one of the Apostles, is credited with having been a member >f the same family. Oue of the accounts of the arrest of the Master tells that amongst those who followed after tiiru was a youug man wrapped with i sheet and who tied naked when some members of the band attempted to lay hold of him. That young man, tradi- ! than says, years afterwards was known is St. Mark. The Journey to Gethsemane This was the most memorable night jf the Master's experience. He knew perfectly the meaning of every feature I it the Passover. He knew that he was the Iamb of God. antitypically. whose Jeath was to be accomplished on the following day by crucifixion. Yet his thoughts were for his dear disciples. He must give them final words of en :ouragement and instruction. And so be did. Three chapters of SL John's Gospel record the incidents of the intervening time between the leaving of the upper room and the arriving at j Grethsemane. the place of the oil-press. 'And Judas also, who betrayed him. j anew the placer for Jesus ofttlmes resorted thither with his disciples" (John riil. 2). in St John xlv the Master told his disciples about the place he would go to prepare for them, but that j be would send the Spirit of Truth to be their Comforter and it would show them things to come. la the Qfteenth chapter he gate them the parable of the Vine and the Branches and aslured them that no longer should they I be servants, but friends. "For all things that I have beard of my Father I hare made known unto you." In the lixteenth chapter be explained to them that persecutions must be expected, if they would share his sufferings and l be prepared to share his glory. A little while and they would not 5?h; him: then again a little while and they would see him.

Ungrateful Apoatata i The world is fall of sadly dlsap- I pointing characters, in many things ; we ail fail. Selfishness, meanness, ; i perversity, pride, etc.. mark the ha- ', fcian family most woefully. Bat *" withal cau anyone find anything more j reprehensible than (be ingrate who would betray bis best friend? * The world Is of one opinion respect- d lng such characters as that of Judas. And although be is a noted example he is by no means an exception; there i* are many. Some of them live today, c But whoever can see the meanness of ^ such a disposition with a reasonably good focus will surely be saved from *manifesting such a character, however ? mean might bo his disposition. The j man who could sell his Master for tliirs ty pieces of silver is justly in coutempt with ail humanity. Nor was it merely 3 the thirty pieces that iutluenced the ingrate. Bather it was pride. He had thought to be associated with the Mas- s ter in an earthly throne. lie had set his^faitb upon this expectation. Now tha same Master explained more fully ' that 'lie throne was not yet t.t sight; that 1 belongs to an age to follow this and \va>_to l.e given only to those who ? should prove themselves loyal and ^ faithful unto death, la the mind of r Judas the matter took not the wisest t and best way. Holding the Great \ Teaeher in contempt, the deceived one ^ probably intended that the delivery ? should be merely a temporary one?a j lesson to the Master not to talk that , way. not to carry matters too far?an incentive to him. compeliing him to ' exert his power for the resistance , of those who sought his Life and thus, In exalting himself, make good to his j disciples the share in the Kingdom which he had promised or. failing of this, to wreck the entire project Alas. I the love of money, the love of power ! puff up and make delirious some who become intoxicated with ambition. ; How necessary that all the Lord's followers remember the message. "He i that humbleth himself shall be exalted ; 1 and be that exaltetb himself shall be j abased!" Humble yourselves, there- \ fore, under the mighty hand of God. that be may exalt you In .due time" (I Peter v, 6). Spiritism Said to Bs Dsmoniam.

He proves from the Scriptures that these fallen spirits per- , somite the human dead, with whose . past history, spirits, though invisible, are thoroughly acquainted. He shows that they also frequently i>erson- ; ate the Creator and the Redeemer, ! commanding their deceived ones to 1 pray, do penance, etc. This, however, is merely to lead them on and to bring them more thoroughly %nder demoniacal control.
