I find so much of goodness still;
In men whom MEN pronounce divine,
I find so much of sin and blot?
I hesitate to draw the line
Between the two?where God has not."

per has a string of candidates alxmt
two columns long.
Almost every week we are iniportuned
to subscribe for some
out-of-town charity. We really
would l>e glad to respond to
every call, but, as the lamented
Doctor 0 W Holmes expressed it,
we believe in charity mostly when,
like a top, it logins "to hum"
(Down East idiom for at home).
It is a significant fact that last
year Governor Blease had a following
in the General Assembly equal
to about one-half the membership in
both branches, while this year there
seems to l>e scarcely a baker's dozen
to follow His Excellency and his
erratic policies- That straws show

Governor Cole L. Blease says
that nothing but death will prevent
his l>eing a candidate to succeed
himself as Chief Executive
of South Carolina. It is well.
The people elected him and it is
for them to say whether or not
his record entitles him to reelection.
Should he retire now,
he would say, doubtless believing
it to l>e true?for his self-conceit
is ineffable?that had he chosen
to run again he could have
beaten any man in the field.
Missionary Praise Meeting.
The Missionary society of the Williamsburg
Presbyterian church will
hold a praise meeting at 8 o'clock
Thursday evening.March 14. The address
will be delivered by Dr James
0 Reavis, pastor of the First Presbyterian
church of Columbia. The
public is cordially invited to near
this lecture.
While secretary of the Southern
Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions
Dr Reavis was sent to visit the
mission stations in Africa, and his
lecture will be an account of this
trip. Dr Reavis is thoroughly familiar
with his subject and is a fluent
speaker. Even those persons who
are not interested in mission work
will find this lecture especially entertaining
because of the incidents
told illustrative of the manners and
customs of the natives.
A collection will be taken for forwiacinns.
