MEssRs. EDITORS: BY request, the
Lexington District Bible Society was
re-organized on the 21st of April,
1867, after sermon in the Methodist
Episcopal Church, Lexington, S. c.,
including all denominations, rs auxi-
iary to the American Bible Society.

neon Corley, Secretary and Trea-
surer. Executive Committee-James
E. Hendrix, G. P. Snelgroye, Simeon
Corley; and j. A. Hendrix and A. M.
Boozer, (er-obicio.)
The following preamble and reso-
lutions were unanimously adopted by
the Lexington District Bible Society
at its first meeting for reorganization
since the war, held April 81, 1867:
Whereas, the American Bible So
ciety, looking to the interests of our
common country, in behalf of our
common brotherhood, in the spirit
of true Christian sympathy and bene-
Violence, has made O generous effort
to supply the INDECENT of our people
with copies of the Holy Scriptures,
and, to this end, has made donation
to the Lexington District Bible So
ciety of 800 volumes, amounting in
value to $193.27, therefore,
Resolped, That the members of
this auxiliary society do most CRATE
fully accept the timely donation so
generously bestowed, and, powerfully
impressed, rs they are, with the i'm
portance of the object contemplated,
return their sincere thanks for this
contribution, which enables them to
supply q portion of the destitute
among rs with the Word of God.
Resolced, That we hail the parent
society as On instrument in the hands
Of God to unite us as a people-bro-
theirs of a common country and a
common destiny in the great work of
sagelization and of human redemp-
Tlon, and pray that the blessing of
God may rest upon its continued eff
forts for the salvation of our people
and the world.
Resolued, That our very worthy.
able and efficient State Agent, Rev.
%. A. Bolles, be requested to forward
this preamble and resolutions to the
parent society.
A Bible Committee was also formed
at the African Methodist Episcopal
Church, Lexington @. H.-Rev. Pc

The Freedmen I'm this State.

The Washington Chronicle says:
Major General Howard, Commits
sioner of the Freedman's Bureau, is
in receipt of report from Brevet
Major General r. E. Scott, Assist
ant Commissioner of the Bureau in
South Carolina, giving an account of
the operations of the Bureau, the
condition of the freedmen, &C., dur
ing the month of March, rs shown by
the reports of the sub-commissioners
and agents OF the several districts.
The agent for Edgefield District
says that the free people are gene
rally employed and doing we'll No
complaints regarding them have been
made. AT the last session of the
Superior Court of the District, Judge
Moses delivered charge to tho
grand jury, setting forth clearly the
right of the freed people to receive
the same treatment before the courts
as the whites. He did not hesitate
to declare that, rs far as the admins
tration OF justice was concerned, the
question Of color ought not to be
considered. His instructions, how
ever, appeared TO have but little
weight with the jury, as in three
cases in which white men were tried
for the murder of colored men, the
accused were acquitted.
The agent of BarnwelI District re-
ports the freedmen doing we'll. Some
difficulty is experienced by freed
men in inducing magistrates to take
cognizance Of their cases. Many
white persons in the District are
very destitute. The feeling of the
people generally toward the blacks
Is becoming more favorable, owing
In great measure to the action of
the government in making them
politically the equals of the whites.

A lad named Suttermiller, about
fourteen years old, was killed one day,
last week, near st, Louis, by n mule
dragging him over the frozen ground
by the halter with which he was lead
ing it. He had ridden the animal to
school, and, on returning home in the
evening, the weather being cold, he
got off, to keep himself warm by
walking. Slipping his arm through
the rciDs, he led the mule, which be-
came scared and ran away. dragging
him from Il half to thrce-ouorters of
a mile.
The SICK MAN.-Its is stated in a
Constantinople paper that France
and Russia have made joint move
ment to recommend the Porte Go
vernment to cede Gambia to Greece.
and that the approach towards n
unity of action in such direction
was regarded as demonstrating that
England is I ely to be left out of the
consultation ior the arrangement of
the affairs of the sick man.
Three weeks since, a woman. in
Rochester, observed q large rat run
past her, and as it was disappearing
in a hole, she caught it by the tail
and pulled it back. The rat bit her
little finger of the right hand. She
paid but little attention to the wound,
and it soon became infamed- the in
fammation extending throughout the
arm, and modification ensuing.
