THE SOUTH CAROLINA CONFERENCE.
The niuety-second session of this large
sand influential body of ministers con-
nected with the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, within the bounds of
South Carolina, will be opened at the
Washington Street Church on Wednes-
Z day next at g o'clock in the morning.
The Conference covers the entire terri
tory of the State, and numbers about two
hundred and fifty clerical and lay mem-
bers. There are about FIVE hundred
churches under its jurisdiction, with. q
membership of forty two thousand white
persons. Tie original territory of the
South Carolina Conference extended
from Maryland TO Florida, but in the
three generations since the organization
of the church in this country FIVE large
and independent Conferences have been
created in their boundary. The Confer
ence Is executive in character, and only
slegislates under restrictions within its
bounds The sessions are usually full OF
interest, and all the various enterprises
softhe church are readjusted and inspired
with new life aud sctivity. The session
will extend through the week open to the
public with religious services every even

be the presiding officer. The members
will arrive on Monday and Tuesday by

The PRESIDENTS MEssAGE.-Have
the farmers of the State read carefully
the Presidents Message? If SO, were
they. not impressed with the following
facts? Nearly one-fifth Of it is devoted
to the discussion of the currency question.
About one tenth to the Stately emanci-
pated race, one tenth to the army, nearly
as much to the navy, and quite as much
to the plagued Indians, while one little
paragraph tells US that the commissioner
of agriculture reports most gratifying re-
suits from the labors of the past year,
and that the commissioner intends to try
to make our farmers raise their own
sugar and not import any from any
place.
Now, this is just aboutthe value placed
upon the agricultural interest of our
country by every legislative body and by
all governmental officials. Millions of
the peoples money are annually appro-
priated to keep up standing army, for
which Republican Government ought
to have no use; or similar amounts are
annually appropriated to sustain navy
that has no better sense than to usefessly
cause the loss of valuable citizens, vide
the wreck of the Huron. But few
thousand dollars and a passing word will
suffice for the encouragement of the de-
velopment of the great science Of agri-
culture.
But farmers won't organize for their
own protection, and who is to blame?

ANTIQUITY OF THE .TURKEY.-Tur-
keys were introduced into England from
America by William Strickland, Lieu
tenant to Sebastian Cabot, in the time of
Henry VII. B. Franklin remarked once
upon o time that the wild turkey should
have been the emblem of the United
States, the log cabin of the pioneer being
in his day surrounded by these birds.
The first turkey seen in France was
served up at the wedding feast of Charles
TX, in 1864, at which feast Craddock
and Susan B. Anthony were present
Since that day turkeys have always form
ed the nucleus for wedding feasts and
Thanksgiving dinners, which is about all
we know concerning the bird, unless we
should say that newspaper men have al
ways held that cut from the forward
part of roast turkeys carcass, smothered
in gravy and surrounded by pound and
a half of artificial intestines, is dish not
in the least detrimental to health, and
one which no.newspaper man ever hesi-
tated to tackle when favorable oppor-
tunity ofered.--Ooensboro (Ry.) En-
