DICTIONARY OF THE BIBLE. EDITED By VIZ.
snrrH, LID, OF LosDos. National Publishing Co.
1870.
The largo and complete edition Of the above
work is too expensive for ordinary circulation,
and hence the necessity for an sbridgment. As
published In England originally, Smiths Die
tio1ary Of the Bible cost s25, and it is well
worth. the price. But the demand for good
Bible Dictionary, as an important aid to teach
ers, families, and readers generally, has in
duced the publishers to present an abridged
edition, embracing everything of value or inn
portance for family use or in Sunday Schools
The unqualified endorsement of its merits by
the most eminent Biblical scholars on this con-
tinent attests the great success achieved. 1t
embodies vast amount of information-drawn
alike from modern researches and explorations,
and from ancient history and literature. 1t
throws food of light upon nearly every point
and topic, historical, theological, scientific and
literary, wherever the ordinary reader needs
help in the successful study of the Scriptures
It is arranged alphabetically, and is good
pronouhcing and defining Dictionary, whileits
illustrations and references are ample and per-
tinent. It9is work, briefly, that should have
place in every religious household, and is
well nigh complete library in itself. Sab
Z bath School teachers will find it a necessity,
and it is highly convenient for ministers, and
for all who desire to understand their Bibles. q
This work is sold by subscription only, and
we are prati6ed that an opportunity is now
offered to this community of obtaining copies
at the publishers price. Rev. v. sG. Rollins,
student of the Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary, is now in our midst, and designs
employing the months allotted to vacation in
that institution by canvassing this region of
country. lie has strong recommendations from
the Faculty, including Drs. Boyce, Manly,
Williams, and Prof. Toy. We commend Mr.
Rollins to the people Of Anderson 4 and feel
assured that none viii regret the purchase of
this valuable compilation.

Hon. Timothy Hurley:
DEAR SIR: Our committee are actively en-
gagged in the work of the investigation OF the
finances of the State, which, under the resolu-
ton authorizing us to work, we have been for
tho past month pursuing.
Much has been said as to the intention and
probable result Of the investigation, but this
much can reveal of the purpose of the COM
mittec, that faithful, rigid and complete ex-
animation of all that pertains to the finances
of the State will be pursued, and report made
which the accompanying "facts and figures T"
will justify.
No attempt at "white-washing' will be suf-
fered, but'a a complete expose made, let "the
shoe pinch" where it will.
We recognize the right of the taxpayers and
property holders to know what has been done
with their money, and for what they are held
accountable, and we would be derelict in our
duty to cheat the public out of such informa-
ton.
We are not cheered on in the investigation
by some of the high functionaries as we might
be; they have become exceedingly cautious,
reticent and fearful of "the judgment to come" ("
We are aware of the cause of their trepidation,
and we propose to follow it up.
We trust you will cooperate with us in all
that will secure the most searching analysis of
and full report upon the financial condition OF
the State. 4e
/ am of the opinion it would be good plan
to invite the Board of Trade and Chamber of
Commerce to cooperate with us in the manner
I suggested when We last met in Columbia.
While we do not recognize the right of any one
outside of the Committee to be with US during
the work of investigation, yet true Republican
ism is to invite all energies, influences and in
teress in the cause of an honest administration
of public trusts.
so-called "carpet-bagger," with every form
of abuse and discredit heaped upon US, let US,
when our work is done, command "the well
dono" of those who have maligned and tru-
duced US the most. Yours, &c,

LL-.HHL N##. .
Hon. Michael Kerr, of Indiana, is
oUtin a letter, addressed to Hon. Jere
s. Black, in which, il we understand
him, he favOrs what is called the New
Departure. The pith and marrow of
the whole letter, however, is in this
sentence: "I am utterly unable to
perceive that any party can accomplish
any good end by refusing 10 accept and
execute in good faith these (Thir7
teenth, Fourteenth and Efficiently
amendments as parts of the COnstitu!
ton" If he had not supposed some
did so refuse, the letter would not have
been written. And yet, the fact is
that no party, no public journal no indi-
vidual Of srgeintelligenee andprom-
inence, and not even a clique in the
whole length and breadth of the land
refuse both to accept and execute in
good faith every one of these amend
ments as de facto obligatory on them
selves. Like many others in the
Northern States, he has m~isconceived
the Southern feeling, and set up a
scarecrow to knock down. Let a
Southern man converse with him, and
good men of his way Of thinking, and
he will hear an exhertation to go.
home and put down the KU-Klux and.
support the amendments; when in.
the sense of being obedient to the
laws, the Southerner needed no such
counsel because he is and was doing
both. The difference between US is
not about Obeying the amendments,
or any other laws good or bad,a It
is on the question of accepting
and enforcing them, at least FOR an
other ftM Presidential term, as good
and righteous and Ut for that period If
no more to enctrm6er the statute books
of The country. When, before Mr.. Kerr,
did a true Democrat ssk that a vii
famous Usurpation Of the tyrant power

to law and the support Of the Oonsti-
tuition. While eE post fGctO laws, and
laws making the military superior to
the civil power, remain on the statute
books, we shall obey them and teach
all Democrats so. But in our heart
of hearts we also curse them;
and so does an honest and free people.
Mr.. Kerr wants power. The way to
secure it by disqualification and bit-
ing the dust, he has not pointed out.
Bis policy is only a change of orders
in the face of the enemy, and in fhe
heat of battle, when we were gather
ing strength, storming the outworks,
united, hopeful, inspired, and on the
edge of victory! We must retrace our
steps, we must reu1ite, and again

will follow against the banner of the
spOils hunters.

The cognomen of New Depart
ure." which the old third party d
schemers have taken up, proves rather
unfortunate. SO many Democrats are
asking what is this but a departure
from principle, that the DepsrtIrists
now say they have made no depart
ure at all. So they get out of the
Democratic frying pan into the Radi-
cal fire. Aha! say the Radicals, you
accept the amendments aud YET say
they shall accomplish nothing, be-
cause you will do them away by con-
structiOn! You sought our company
by adopting our principles, and now
say you viii not support them.
You may come to Us, but we
shall be far from going over to you.
Meanwhile the "BOurbOn" element
is tremendously gaining. Not a South
ern State for the Departure, while the
North is shrinking back from the
hair Drained experiment. In the
words Of an influential cOtemporary:
"Thi5 greatly emssculated Departure
met q strong minority opposition in
conventions, andis bitterly denounced
by many Ohio Democrats to this day.
The Kentucky and Maryland Deraoc-
racies are substantially solid against
the "viIlainy acceptance" programme.
Democrats vigorously protest against
what adoption it has obtained in
Iowa, Pennsylvania and Maine. and
the unmansge8ble Southern Bourbon
element is certainly not losing and
appears to be gaining in its infu-
ence."

The Census-Tbe POp6IHdOn OF the
United States.


Every man who feels an fnteres4 in
the prosperity Of his country delights
in contemplating the census returns.
But the people will commence dis
cussing the next census before they
have an opportunity OF investigating
the returns already made. In Eng
land the Census Bureau has some
system in performing its work. In
Great Britain the census was taken on
the Sd Cf April last, and the returns
have already been published. The
census for the United States w~sstfkeh,
over a year ago, and it will be apother
year before the result can be pub
lished. The Census Bureau has
already published two or three state
ments as to the aggregate population.
But now we have a revised table,
differing in many respects from
the others, and from this latest
estimate OF the aggregate popua-
ton Of ali the States and organ
lied Territories, the population Of
the United States is as follows:
White, 3S,5S1,6SO; colored, 1898 1913;
Indian, 25,733; japanese, So; Chinese,
1896. Total, IS, $685.. These are
only " the latest revised tables" bat
