Rev. i. s. Keith Legare.

Everywhere the dominion Of Death rules !;
every moment sees his victims falling, and
yet the measure of time is unfulfilled to us
who remain, the certainty of following after
is no less fixed, because the boundary to us il
unseen. Slowly yet surely the graveyard is
being heaped with graves, we stand to day
as mourners, tomorrow they drop the kin
dred sod upon us. The life that is cut short
in infancy saddens the home circle. The
sudden end ofa youthful life parulyzes awhile
the contracted sphere of promising career.
But when age with its fulness of ripe expert
ence, its wisdom drawn from the yicissituies
of three scores years and ten, its ambitions
tempered by the graaGtions Of Hope and dis
appointment, joy and sorrows, inuring tile
soul to reverses, and restraining it to submis-
sion. When life beginning in usefulness and
bold vigor gathering strength in the practice
ofgood, devoting itself to the grand object of
existence has been ended; there is a pause
that's solemn,a void that is irreparable, a loss
that is felt in spite of the grave that hides
the form and features we respected and
loved. These thoughts are suggested by tie
decease of the late Rev. I. s. Keith Legare
which occurred ON the 29ih of July 1874.
Mr.. Legarc was graduate Of Yale college in
1881. He then entered the theological
Seminary Of Columbia under Professor Howe
and Goulding, and closing his studies afler
three years laid the foundations of the Or
angcburg Presbyterian Church as its first
pastor in May 1885. Under his exertions,
and aided in great part by his immediate
family and friends, the first building for
service was erected. Having served ten years
rs pastor, lie resigned on account of throat
affection that impaired his health. Mean
time Mr.. Legare was not inactive, and later
he established the Seminary for young ladies
from which graduated many who are The
noblest mothers of the land, and whose train
ing intellectual and religious they freely
accord to him. fhe late war having termi-
mated the career Of this hitherto popular
institution, Mr.. Eegare was called to the
Sunday school work, first in Virginia and
afterwards in Georgia. His resignation from
this duty on account ofincreased feebleness
drew forth unqualified letters of regret and
commendation from both the Secretaries(Mr
Mccullough of the Southern department,
and Mr.. Wurts of the Northern department
of the American Sunday School Union, and
thousands of children white and colorcd to
day reverence the memory of him whose
christian philanthropy was devoted to their
Orangeburg times. [volume] (Orangeburg, S.C.) 1872-1875, 1874-08-06

Republican Meeting.

August 1st., 1874.
According to call, a meeting washerd
for the purpose Of electing Delegates
to the County Convention, to be held
on Thursday 18th instant. F. r. Nc
Kinlay acted as chairman of the meet
ing, and Vandy Bowman as secretary.
They first met at the School house, but
the heat, noise and uproar becoming
too much for the sableg gentleman they
adjourned to the neighboring shade
trees,where they completed their work
to their own satisfaction, by eiecting
the following Delegates to the County
Convention "A. b Knowlton, +. .R:
McKinlay, vandy Bowman, Benfij.
Byas, Antony .Golson, A. B. Martin,
- Dantzler, r. w. Turner and
JIG. Moore. After the election was
concluded, each delegate delivered an
address, appropriate to the occasion.
Some of the speakers came down pretty
heavy on the present ringmaster Of
this big circus, from MI appearances,
he will have to hand the whip over to
the great By.as, who seems to have
good hold on the people now. This
man was not slow in pitching in to
the Senator from this county, they
however can not deprive him of his
office for two years to come unless he
resigns. and that he's not willing to do,
he will hold OH as long as he can to
the loaves and fishes. This Convention
seemed anxious to put in new men.
A. b. Knowlton is certainly in the
lead. One great cry at this gathering
was, down with dishonest men, give us
reform and send good men to Columbia.

Mr.. EDITOR. 4 beg permission of a
small space in your issue this week to
give you sketch of a very pleasant
trip to the County of Lexington, to
attend an Association of the Grangers.
On last Wednesday morning my way
lay around those gorgeous old hills
which are to be seen in the upper part
of our country, towards the place ap-
pointed Cor the Association. The ride
occupied four and half hours which
was very fatiguing, not being accus-
toned to such rides. I arrived at the
appointed place, and to my surprise on
examination of my watch, found it to
be only nine o'clock, which convinced
me that the crowd which was expected
had not yet arrived. There stood be-
fore me new and handsome building
which proved to be a Baptist church
called by the name of Sardis. Being
Q
almost an entire stranger, I began to
feel quite lonely; Looking around for
something that might interest me, in
order to wear away the time pleasantly
until the crowd assembled, I saw in
rear ofthe church great valley which
is peculiar to the section of country.
i found u path leading down. the hill
evidently in the direction of q spring,
winding my way around its frequent
turns my eyes fell upon bulk ofwhat
seemed to he earth, as I examined I
found it to be one of those immense

Largest circulation;" C,:s away the
pap, and they would live very short
existence. Our columns are filled with
items tending to elevate all, and no
partizan exaggerations for selfish ends
are made to degrade our race to exalt
another that is inferior whether bv
accident or by nature. We regard the
prosperity of the negro race as allied
so closely with that of the white, that
to see the interests Of the latter i'm.
paired is to see the whole framework
OF society demolished. The happiness
and success of the black man is the
sequence to the success of the white:
Reverse the attitude of the two, and a
chaos must ensue that will annihilate
society and government. This is a
vexed question, because degraded Office

the logic of events alone must settle /:

obligation; but to teach or attempt to
teach him that these Southern States
are his, and upon him rest the deyel-
opment of their resources, and expan-
sion OF their civilization. is to teach
the essence of all that is Ridiculous and
shameful. Years hence when, a remnant
OF the race shall linger here, as they
now dc in more northern States, where
once they fourished, they may survey
the track over which their people have
trod, and where misfortune overlook
them first, they may see its handmaid

turers and demagogues). In spite of
the degraded means employed to pull
down the TIMES by those who would,
but never can effect their purpose
fairly, we are moving on; We intend
to do SO by the peoples help, and to
the people we appeal to send us names
that our venture may be secured and
