TOWNSHIP MEETING,

According to previous notice, the citizens
of Hopewell Township met at Hopewell

purpose of arriving at some definite conclu-
sions in regard to the distribution of public
school funds. Capt. NJ. B. Williams was

quested to act as secretary. The chair ex-
planned the object Of the meeting and de-
clared the meeting ready for business.
School Commissioner T. P. Benson was
present, and gave US the law in regard to
school matters. Mr. J. n. Hamblin offered

ted:

Resolved, That the Trustees of this Town
ship are requested and required to visit each

THE cHARApEs AT pENpLgroN.

On last Tuesday evening the citizens of
Pendleton enjoyed very pleasant entertain
ment in the way of charades, given i'll Max
wells Hall by amateurs for the benefit of
the Cornet Band, which has recently been
organized there. The Hall, which is not a
large one, has been rented by the Band for
this year, and has recently been fitted up by
them with a well-arranged stage and other
conyeniences for the purpose of having
these entertainments, which they propose
repeating at convenient intervals in the
future. The performance in question con-
sisted in the rendition of the charades, 1.-THE
Boston Dip" "Never Say Dye" Mistake"
and "seeing the Elephant" in manner to
please the audience in the highest degree.
The young ladies and gentlemen, most of
whom appeared for the first time before the
public, acquitted themselves most creditably,
and evinced marked theatrical talent. The
attendance was very good indeed, and the
crowd frequently attestsd its appreciation of
the excellence of the performance by loud
bursts of applause. The charades were a
decided success, and all engaged in them
may congratulate themselves upon having
afforded the public delightful evening, in
addition to extending very material aid to
the object for which they were gotten up.

so steadily and worthily gaining on public
patronage and favor. The Rev. Mr.. Lander,
assisted by Mr.. Weber, formerly the pastor
of the Methodist congregation ofyour town,
and by seven lady teachers-four in the
literary department and three in the music
is constantly adding to the many existing
useful features of the College such others as
his experience may suggest or his means
will allow. The kindergarten, under the
efficient and enthusiastic management Of
Miss Wagner, late of Charleston, is pro-
nounced success. The music department,
under the thoroughly competent direction
of Misses Hagen and Purvis, and Mrs.
Lander, is having enlarged prosperity.
About fifty young ladies are taking lessons
in instrumental music. The school is strict
ly, as it proposes to be, unsectarian. Not
owned nor controlled by any church, and
yet owned and controlled by Christian gen.
tlemen of several churches, it affords Chris
tian culture without UNCONVENTIONAL inter
ference or bias 1t deserves well of our peo-
pie, and its enlarging prosperity cannot but
prove gratifying to every well-wisher to the
best interests of the country.

ACTION OF THE HoNEA PATH CLUB.

The Honea Path Democratic Club met on
Saturday last, 11th inst, when the following
resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, That we, the Democratic Club Of
Honea Path, do appoint five members oi
our Club to attend the Democratic Conven-
ton, to meet at Anderson G. 81. on the 18th
day of April next, to nominate delegates to
meet the State Democratic Convention, to
convene in Columbia, S. c., on the 4th day
of May next.
Resolved, That we cordially invite and
urge upon every voter, both white and col.
ored in our Township, irrespective of past
differences of opinion as to politics, to come
up and join us, and let US make one COM
mon cause in the great work of reform, and
in restoring our State to good government.
Resolved, That we, the Democratic Club
at Honea Path, favor the County Conven-
ton plan of nominating candidates for all
the Offices to be filled in our County, from
the Legislature down, believing that we can
have more unanimity in this plan Of select
ing candidates than by primary elections.
Resolved, That we favor nominating men
for Office who the Office would seek, rather
than men who seek the Office, especially for
the Legislature, as we believe all good con-
servative men would be more likely to join
in with US in the great work of reform so
much needed, which is acknowledged by all
parties, and our delegation are instructed to
not vote for men who seek nominations
only to vote for men who they believe good,
faithful and honest men; and respectfully
ask that other Democratic Clubs throughout
the County consider the plan we have adop-
ted of electing men for officers.
The following gentlemen were elected to
attend the Convention ut Anderson G. H.,
on the 18th day of April next: T. A. Hud-
gems, R. N. Wright, Wm. Lee, James GAM
brell and Maj. Rob't. Dugan. Alternates-
R. s. Cheshire, NJ. S. Strickland, Joel Kay,
sr., and Joel B. Cox.

THE sAprnsTs OF THE UNITED STATES.

The Baptist Year Book for 1875, recently
issued by the American Baptist Publication
Society Of Philadelphia, contains some in
terasting statistics Of the Baptist denomina-
ton, which will prove acceptable to our
readers of that faith, and hence we transfer
them to our columns. In the year 177o
there were in the United States, which were
then under colonial government, about one
hundred Baptist churches. One hundred
years before there were only about dozen
churches Of this denomination. In 1874,
Just after we had conquered our indepen-
dence of Great: Britain, there were HI
churches, 424 ministers, and $1,000 church
members. At this time there are about
$1,000 churches, about Il, 900 ministers, and
nearly 2,Oe0, 900 church members. Of this
number 1000, 900 are embraced within States
sending delegates to the Southern Baptist
Convention. In the year 1875 the denomi-
nation sustained 158 foreign and India. mis-
sionaries, $40 native missionary preachers,
745 mission churches, which contain 1888
members. Besides, home missionary work
has been sustained all over the country, at 4
great expense. There are nine theological
seminaries, thirty-three colleges and uni
yersities, and about fifty seminaries, insti-
tutes and female colleges under control OF
the denomination. Also, two publication
societies, one in Memphis and the other in
Philadelphia, together with fifty newspapers
and periodicals. There are about 10000
Sunday Schools, containing over 100000
scholars, and there was contributed for
benevolent purposes, last year, about 81, ,ooo,-
900. These facts show the interest OF the
Baptists in spreading the gospel at home and
abroad, in disseminating knowledge, pro-
noting education, and enlarging influences
for the religious training of the young.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.

On Wednesday night, 9Th inst, the alarm
of fire was given between eleven and twelve
o'clock, when it was discovered that the
large brick building on Main street belong
ing to Capt. John w. Daniels, and occupied
as blacksmith and carriage shop by Messrs.
J. L. FAINT & Co., was in flames. The fire
originated in the lower story, and when it
was discovered small quantity of water
might have extinguished the flames, if there
had been any appliances under control OF
an organization. The result shows how
completely unprotected we are against the
fire-fend, but the vigorous, manly efforts OF
our citizens to save the residence of Mr.. 7.
J. Leak, which proved entirely successful,
demonstrates the value and importance OF
organized, effective work.
The flames spread too rapidly to save any
thing of value from the building, and hence
there is total loss, amounting in the aggre-
gate to $4,000, which is equally divided
between Capt Daniels and Messrs. FAINT &
Co. Besides the tools and materials of the
latter, a considerable quantity of completed
work was consumed. No insurance upon
the building or its contents. The commu-
nifty deeply sympathizes with the sufferers,
and has manifested in practical way the
strongest evidences of its disposition towards
Messrs FAINT & Co., who are deserving men
of limited means. Capt. Daniels not long
ago mads some valuable repairs upon the
building, and was preparing to insure with
one of the agencies here, survey having
been made for that purpose. All classes Of
our citizens as usual worked strenuously to
arrest the fire, and only their efforts preven-
ted much greater confagration. 1t is gan
orally supposed that the fire was accidental.
