THE EpaEFIELD ADVERTISER.

This popular, able and influential journal again
graces The table. of the Iatcll@csccr For months
past its absence has been lamented and its clear,
luminous face been sadly missed; but the mail the
other night brought to view the -4dvcrtisr, and
with an earnestness which We should extend to an
old friend after long separation, we unfoded its
pleasant pages and sought for its wontcd variety Ct
interesting matter. Not one whit of abatement IN
its excellent management and the old-timc fresh
ness and vigor is fully apparent. This was our
decision, and VIC have written it down that the
genial, gifted BACON might know that he isst;l ap'
prccated in this quarter. Send on the 4drertise'
regularly-plcasng recollections Of happier time;
are awakened, and present and future prosperity
wished for.

HOME POLICE AGAIN.

In our last issue it was announced that there
would he held meeting of those whose signatures
were appended to certain paper, the object OF
which was to organize Company for protection
and safety in this community. From causes which
it is unnecessary now to mention, the mcctiHs oil
Saturday proved complete failure; and upon
consultation with gentlemen who have been most
ACTIVE in the organization proposed it has been de-
cided that another effort should be made to secure
attendance of those who have signed their willing
.ss TO enter into such an organization. In urging
the matter before t.s community, .wc have not
thought it proper or polite to mention all the in
du dement's which should ncitc the law-abiding and
honest citzcn to assist in perfectins so desirable
an end, and aehc1 do we iatcnd at this time to
present fully the dangers and difficulties which
possibly may be aycrted by timely action. Every
intelligent and thoughtful man must of necessity
be apprisal of the existing uncertainty which will
attend this section for months 10 come. The posi-
tive and unqualified action of Numerous class is
too we'll known to need rccapitulation now, and
there can be no doubt as to the erroneous and Vi
cious doctrines which have been inculcated in
their minds. We speak cautiously and with dis
arction, for there is naught to-excitc apprchcn
sions and fears among that particular class in the
aprrcrate. and it would be our farthcst intention
to bring upon these unfortunate beings q reproach
unworthily. - Yet We have seen and heard enough
to convince us that the cvildsposed, instgated by
the lowest and most degraded of white men, are
intent upon serious mischief. This much we are
bound to declare, as sentinel upon the watchtoW-
er, and again. would earnestly urge the prompt and
efficient enrolment of such as arc competent to pre-
serve the public peace. " word 10 the wise is
sufficient"
Another effort will be made TO perfect the organ

T,tellqencer with the dcab2c sheet which has been
promised for saale tiRse past. .Uatoward :circum-
sonces beyond our control have forced the Issue of
n half.sheet ever since We made that promise. and
the resder can hardly feel as much qualification at
tho present appearance Of the Inteh9encer as our
selves. In sending forth this complete and proper
size, it is fitting occasion to impress upon the
minds Of the patrons one or two interesting facts.
To begin with, then, there are scores who will read
this number whose times have expired, but they
are, perhaps, unconscious of the facts Being in
debted for the pl sent (and many for the past) it
Is incumbent upon each subscriber to examipe into
the case in order to receive the paper in the future
knowing the scarcity Of money in the country, ana
the great desire for information of general char
acter, it has been too common practice with us to
become liberal and generous, and allow the paper
continued to those who have never yet made an
effort to recompense us pecuniarly. This lber-
ality on our part is fast oozing out. The weekly
bills of our Office must be settled and they are too
pressing and urgent to admit Of further coninu-
ance of this policy. Therefore, fair notice is given
that henames of those in arrears will be stricken
off the list on the 1st day of January next, and q
rule adopted in essry instance TO require payment
in advance. This IS absolutely necessary, else VIC
should feel the greatest pleasure imaginable in
supplying the people gratis! suchas are in doubt
about their standing on cur books, arc cordially
invited TO give us call ut the earliest practicable
moment, and we shall be extremely happy toim-
part the necessary information. Having printed
a large number of blank receipts, We are decidedly
anxious to distribute them among subscribers,
properly made oat and signed. And we would
further impress this matter by directing the par
ticuar attention of our village patrons to the gen.
eral tenor of this article. The majority of sub
scribcrs in the village are in arrears, and there can
be no moro acceptable time for payment than this
week aad next. Stand not on the order of your

OF TIE
SOUTH CAROLINA BAPTIST.

THE undersigned has determined early in Janua-
ry 1866, TO conimencethe publication Of n weekly
Religious journal, at. Anderson C.aH,S4C., to be-
entitled THE SOUTH CAROLINA BAPTIST.
L. will be the first great aim of THE SOUTH
CAROLINA BAPTIST to convey tho general news
in relation totiic Denomination at large, thereby
rendering it an interesting and attractive compan-
ion in every Baptist family. No expense or effort
will be spared TO secure the earliest and re-
able information Of the important and interesting
workings Of Baptist Churches in general, together
with the operation of our Missionary Boards, and
every benevolent institution and
day.
Therefore, while THE SOUTH CAROLINA
BAPTIST will be strictly Dcnominational, .'ear.
nestly contending for the faith once delivered I'd
the Saints" zealnusiy -contending for. the Truth,
AMI combating error and superstitution in every
form in which they present themselves, yet these
opinions will be expressed with that kirdness and
affection becoming prcfessed Christian. s. zsss
The columns of the paper will also be opened
to those Mho, may disagree with the opinions exA
pressed. =
As this will be, perhaps; the only paper. taken
by many in this community-visitng, it may be;
the humble abodes of some unable to take Others,
it is deemed proper and important, in judicousy
arranged columns, to give all the important local,
political and literary news of the day, rendering it,
in eyeryssense, a family paper. -'sss ssy 3 11a'
The paper will be of medium size, we'll printed,
having the benefit of superior materials, and tho
entire Office management being under the immedi-
ME superintendence of experienced printers. ~
The Necessary capital TO start this enterprise
having been secured in advance; the services Of
somo of our ablest brethren, in this and other'
States, pledged as contributors and corresponding
Editors, and all the necessary arrangements having
been deliberately made with reference TO stability
and good faith, all who may feel inclined to favor
the enterprise may confidently subscribe, and re-
nit advance payments assured that thcre'will be
no disappointment. ..es
| Tie Editor, having been partially disqualified
for the arduoes duties of the Pulpit, by four.long
years of hardship, exposure and service in our
counrys cause feels impeled to resort to this as
means by which, under the blessing of Provi-
dcnce, he may assist in rebuilding thcwastc places
| of Zion.
The mails viii be in regular operation again by
the time of the publication of the paper, and this'
being the first enterprise of the chsractcr ever cs
tablshcd in Anderson, he hopes to secure sorompt:
