ion has been made for holding State Teachers
Institute an Institute will be held in connection
with the State Normal School, beginning Jan 6,

arranged with view to make the session not

Religious Decisions Among the Negroes.

The negroes of Spartanburg, in on,
neighboring State of South Carolina. seem
| to be blessed with an unusual amount ri
religious fervor. The leader of these in
sane colored people is negro named Bobo,
and his peculiar forms of worship are de.
scrioea oy q correspondent of the Charles
ton Ne'cs: During the last month kind
OF revival has been in progress in Bobo's
church, and few days ago it eliminated
IN one OF the greatest religious demonstra
tions ever seen in that country. Bobo,
from preaching Christ, went to preaching
himself as the new prophet high in ia
vor." His doctrine was that the Lord had
commanded him to call together the chill
dren of Zion, and lead them to the prom
lsed land, distant but one hundred and
sixty miles, and where they would have
wings and could fly. After much exhorta-
ton and many midnight orgies, he said
that the command to march had been re.
ceived, that his disciples must sell all they
had, and without script or sword follow
him. he thus persuaded some fifty or
sixty to obey him. The poor deluded
creatures sold crops, stocks, and every
thing they had, at great sacrifice. One
m IN sold his crop, said to be worth six
hundred dollars, for one hundred and fifty
dollars; another sold q COW and calf for
one dollar and fifty cents. Nothing could
dissuade them from their purpose. They
sald 1t was the command of the Lord, and
they must obey. Just before they started,
the prophet said there was one more thing
to be done. 1t was necessary to the sue
cess of the journey that tho oldest person
among the faithful must be sacrificed, be- !
cause he being the Oldest eau tell the Lord |
most about any of us. On examination,
the oldest person vas found to be a woman !
She was taken and confined to an clubhouse |
until stick of peculiar growth could be |
found, with which she must be killed. She
did not seem to mind her danger, but ra-
Their to rejoice. She certainly would have
been martyr, had it not been for the
neighbo ing whites, who bad TO use some
show of violence to release her. This was
q damper on the prophet and his followers,
but did not Overt them from their pur-
pose. Placing their smallest children and !
q few provisions in a two horse wagon they
set out on their march. Ga the march sew
erni attempts We're made to dissuade them
from their folly, but without turning to the
light or left, with eyes upturned they
went on without making any answers.
The last heard of them they we're crossing
the mountains in the direction of Tenn @. see.
The correspondent adds "This NAV
seem like fiction, but it is tue; the wit
1esses are here, and I have written no
more thao what to-day can be heard in
my crowd or family circle in this county.

A Jefferson County Claim Agent Arrested
for Frauds and Forgery.

Some time ago there have been wills
perings that everything was not altogether
lovely in the accounts of Mr.. James %.
Senter, a very afablc, energetic and alto
gether popular claim agent, doing business
at Panther Springs, Jefferson county. But
though until few days ago nothing was
made public, yet the officials were fully
advised as to his actions and took the ne
cessary steps to prevent flight if he consid-
cred absence healthful and essential to his
physical comfort.
On Saturday the trap was sprung by
U. s. Deputy Marshal, G. T. Larkin, and
the bird caught and brought to Knox
vile, but by proffering bail, his imprison-
ment was postponed. Senter in the mean-
time paying the officers expenses home.
In this he was disappointed, his cousin,
Ex-Governor ID. w. G. Senter, refused to
60 on his bond, giving as his reason for de-
Ginning to do so that he did not know
the amount of the frauds perpetrated
though he would have been willing to do
had the cases for which he was arrested
been the only charges against him.
His defalcatiOns as far as known are not
large, but it is feared the two cases which
have been brought to light are but the
commencement of series of frauds which
may reach huge dimensions. His profits
in one claim was 81, 100, being the back
pay of deceased officer of the 9th Tennes-
see Cavalry, made payable to Abraham
Miller.
Senter was taken to Jail OH yesterday
and assigned quarters in the cell formerly
occupied by Thos. G.. Boyd.

Hints to Whist Players.

Reviewing small work on whist, the
following rhyming rules strike the Pail
Mall Gazette as being particularly good:
Mind well the rules for trumps-you'll often
need them:
When you hold five, tbs always right to lead
them
Watch also for your partner trump request,
To which, with less than four, lead out your
best;
When you discard, weak suits you ought to
choose,
For strong ones are too valuable to lose.
