j A succession of terrified yells rent the air

Harmony Presbyterian.
This body?roet, pursuant to adjournment,
i n Sumter, S C , on tbe 14tb instant.
At its meeting in Manning last mooth, cer?
tain rumors were rfported to it injurious to
the character of Rev. J. E. Dunlop, atad
although nothing was brought forward that
could prove them, yet Presbytery appointed
a commission to visit tbe place where they
originated, tak?v testimony, and report back
to it. Judge T. B. Fraser chairman of the
commission, with Rev. X. W. Edmunds. D.
Di Rev. W. J. McKay, D D , and Rev.' W.
W. Mills, members of it, visited fndiantown,
and spent four days io patiently taking
sworn testimony of a number of persons,
white and colored.
At the late mtetiog io Sumter, Presbytery
received tbe report of this commission, and
beard ail of the testimony read, and then by
a vote of 27 to 3 adopted a p.iper containing
a oreamble aod 5 resolutions, tbe two last of
which are as follows :
"Resolved 4th. That the confidence which
Presoytery has, and has always had, in the
integrity and piety of this brother, would in
itself, and especially in the face of his eolemn
oath of innocency, lead them to believe ibat
a satisfactory explanation did exist even
though it could not te given ; but in addi?
tion to this, they feel convinced that the ex?
planations tbat have been given by bim, are
conclusive, not only in removing all pre?
sumption of guilt, but also in producing the
Strongest conviction of innocency.
"Resolved 5th. That io view of the con?
victions thus arrived at, Presbytery sees no
cause to pursue the investigation farther, but
rather to congratulate our brother in bis
ability to thufi vindicate bimse'f, and to com?
mend bim to the renewed confidence and fel?
lowship of all, whose faith io bim, may have
been affected for the time by these rumors."
Tbus has this ootde and faithful servant of
God been exonerated by an overwhelming
majority, every one of bis min!sterial breth?
ren, and most ot the ruling elders present
voting for the resolutions, while only three
elders voted against them. Presbytery by
its vote, even congratulated biro, on bis vin?
dication. J-ime? McDowell.

They Don't Know Nerve?.
Those who know the Chinese best
have been particularly struck with
their absence of nerves. The foreigner
fidgets, the native sits still; balmy
sleep, especially in hot weather, will
resist the foreigner's sweetest wooing,
wbile to the native lying on a heap of
stones or across the bars of a wheel?
barrow she comes as a matter of
course; we need constant change and
variety, they would find contentment
ami rest on the treadmill.
**It would be easy/' says Mr. Smith,
"to raise in China au anny of 1,000,000
men-nay, ?U.UOO.? ?00-tested by com?
petitive examination as to their capaci?
ty to go to sleep across three wheel?
barrows, with heads downward, like a
spider, their mouths wide open and a
fly inside."'
From which it is evident, says The
North China Herald, that in a crusade
against noise we can hope for no as?
sistance from our native fellow towns?
men, but instead a great amount of
vis inertiae, if not positive opposition.

ARE Ti^IE THING
And we have the prices.
Our entire stock was bought when cot?
ton was at low water mark, so our cus?
tomers get the benefit.
We will sell at the same old price all goods
bought before the big advance.
Of course when our present stock is exhausted and we have to
replenish they will cost you more. Hence, a word to the wise
is sufficient.
Buy now while you can buy what you actu?
ally have to have at prices that mean big
savings to you*
You know who we are, and that every article of goods sold by
us has to be as represented or your money is here for you. In
other words if you cant come yourself send your child and if
things are not as we represent them you can get your money
back, every cent of it.
Our Dressmaking Department is conducted by
Mrs. M. J. Brunson and daughters, whose reputation has long
been established. A trial will convince you of their perfect
knowledge of the art of making dresses.
Every stock is a complete
store in itself*
In our Clothing Department you will find every
thing for man or boy. Prices the same as when cotton was 5c
Last but not least, is our Grocery Department, which Ls a
separate store in itself. There you will find a complete line of
fancy and staph- Groceries, at prices which invite comparison.
