The Bible for the Blind.

The American Bible Society has, at
great expense, prepared the entire Bible,
in raised letters for the Blind. 1t is pub
lished in eight and sixteen folio volumes.
The actual cost of the former is twenty
dollars, and of the latter twenty eight
dollars, at which prices the sets are sold.
The New Testament may be had either
in two or four volumes, costing respect
lively five and seven dollars. The Psalms
constitute single volume, which is sold
for one dollar and half.
The stereotype plates, from which this
magnificent book is printed, cost the sum
of thirteen thousand dollars; and the So
ciety has already prepared, and put into
circulation over Seven thousand votunleS
of it, in great part gratuitously, inasmuch
as the Blind, as class, are unable to
purchase.
This department of the Society's work
impressively illustrates its benevolent
character. 1t would be impossible to es-
innate the blessings that have attended
it's distribution of the Scriptures among
the Blind; and the most affecting testi-
mony might be cited to the comfort and
Joy produced by this instrumentality.
In its efforts to scatter these precious vol
umes among class so greatly afflicted,
and large majority of whom are poor,
the Society can surely depend on the
hearty and generous cooperation of its
friends.
Persons in want of Bibles for the blind,
or any other religious books, should
make their wants known to Mr.. B. G.
BRYAN, Agent of the American Bible So
ciety, for the sale and distribution of re-
ligious books.

A Miraculous Escape.

On last Saturday morning DIR. j. E.
Self, accompanied by Mrs. Emma Hol-
loway, enroute from home to this place,
attempted to ford the creek at Reynolds
crossing, but had proceeded but short
way in the creek when they discovered
that both buggy and horse were floating
down stream. DR.. Self in his efforts to
change the direction of the horse, caused
the horse to make sudden turn, which
upset the buggy, throwing Mrs. Hollo-
way and himself into the stream. DR..
S. Immediately went to the relief OF Mrs.
H., and after floating down stream some
two hundred yards, sustaining the lady
all the while, the Doctor managed to
reach friendly bough, and succeeded in
bringing the lady ashore. The Doctor,
being an excellent tswimmer, then turned
his attention to the horse and buggy,
(which had floated down the stream along
with the Doctor and the lady,) and also
ioroy rbt them safe to land. We congrat-
nlato the Doctor and his lady friend on
their miraculous escape, and trust they
may never again be thus encompassed.
We have communication in reference
to negligence of duty on the part of the
County Commissioners, in not having a
bridge built at or near Reynolds cross,
ing. which we will publish next week.

Life Insurance.

We would call attention to the adver.
tisement in another column of The
Brooklyn Life Insurance Company o.
New York.
This Company, as it will be seen. is
spoken of in the highestterms by papers
both North and South. Among many
other advantages, The Brooklyn endorses
upon each policy, before it is delivered
to the person insured, the exact amount
of the Cash Surrender Value, thereby
making the policy complete, and in the
nature of negotiable, registered govern
ment Bond.
Above all, we are assured that, owing
to it's careful management and superior
advantages, The Brooklyn is enabled to
insure at cheaper rates than most Com
panies, and if so it will certainly benefit
the community.
AS to Messrs. Bacon & Butler, our
townsmen, the General Agents of the
Company, we neednot add a single word
of eulogy, as they are so well known
here in their native District.
The Columbia papers speak very fiat

This prominent divine, General Agent
for the American Bible Society, visited
our town during the present week, and
on Sunday morning and night preached
in the Baptist Church to large and atten-
tive audiences. His sermons were quite
entertaining and highly instructive, and
his hearers were delighted. Rev. MI.
Bolles was here in the work of the Bible
Society, for which he has labored SO as
siduously, and achieved so much, and
was instrumental in giving a fresh and
renewed impetus to our Bible Society,"

re-organized, and is ready to prosecute
its labors in the good cause of spreading
the Bible among the destitute.
