fitted by listening as well as by singing.
But those who listen find emotions stir
ling within them which 1t will do them
good 10 express for themselves and
therefore the congregation ought TO have
an opportunity to pour out ilR voice in q
grand choral song. And when the con.
gregation IL called on 10 sing, the value
I Of the chorus AZ a leader IL felt. The
congregation will sing with a chorus to
lead and led by such a force of steadily
marching melody it is quite impossible
that there should be any dragging
or that the discords should make
themselves prominent.
The great meetings OF the evangelists
show us the value of both Of these
methods of praise. The solos of Mr..
'5ankey are often impressive; who will
cayil al this method of conveying truth
or awakening emotion The choruses
OF the great choir are often still NOR
impressive no person who watches n
congregation listening 10 spirited and
triumphant sacred song from a large
body of trained singers will doubt the
NhIut VI HlNu ~ FNlfl'N 40 n hlChhp "
religious impression. And yet for the
proper rendering Of these choruses il is
better that portions Of them be sung by
a single voice, or by two or three or
four voices. A phrase or q stanSa may
often be well delivered in this name
frightening the effect Of the music, and
fixing attention still more strongly
upon the words Of the gong. Then,
when the great congregation. moved
by the singing to which it has listened,
and the other services in which 1t has
engaged, is called TO "stand up and bless
the Lord in some simple and familiar
hymn, its response is a burst OF praise in
which the angels might well wish to Join.
Whatever, therefore Mr. Moody's theo'
ries of church music may be, his meet
ings show ~ the value Of solo singing,
of quartette singing, Of chorus singing
and Of Congregations singing, and make
plain to us that We can afford to dispense
with neither of these methods OF praise
in our churches.

DURATION OF LIFE.


N0vif bh"f, worm
The average duration Of life in civil,
led society is about 33} years, This is
called y generation, making three in a
century. But there are certain localities
and certain communicated people where
this average Is considerably extended,
The mountainCer lives longer than the
~lOwlander; the farmer than the artisan
the traveller than the sedentary the

Tho London Underground Road,

Our companions desiring to see the
underground railway, we took passage
on the train from Kings Cross, and in
returning, proceeded ~ far IN the Baker
street station to visit Nine. Tlasaud's
famous wsX works. We thus passed
through ii some eight or ten miles, and
are decidedly of the opinion that New
York, in adopting the elevated railway
system for "raI id transit in preference
to the underground, has acted wisely.
The cost OF constructing such a road az
this, with the right OF way, must have
been enormous, though it docs an i'm
me lse passenger traffic. Yesterday the
trains were passing the stations about on
an average OF one every two minuts,
with six large passenger cars, each seat
ing comfortably thirty.six passengers, or
about two hundred passengers to the
train. They were running at this rats
from daylight until midnight, and some
times during the day passengers were
compelled to wait until several trains
had passed before they could get seats.
Going TO the Crystal Palace at the SUI.
burban dep0ts there was Il general strug.
gle to get into the already crowded cars,
and hundreds were compelled finally to
abandonthe attempt to get to the Palace,
as the trains were all crowded before they
reached these stations, Although the
roads convey the passengers at a speed
Of about twenty miles an hour, includ-
ing stoppages, it is by 10 means a pleas
ant mode of conveyance, especially for
ladies. 1t might have been worse yester-
day than usual on account OF thenumber
OF trains, but the atmosphere was most
sitting from the gus emitted from the
locomotives. We were all glad to get to
.he n OF our journy, and concluded that
we haa enjoyed about as much of that
specles oil transit az we cared about
'"''ng our soiourn in London.

KINCIID'S BRIDGE.

MesSrs. Editors Il h ave this
morning crossed Kincaid's Bridge
and really found it in such condi-
ton that I deem it proper to call
the attention of our County Com
miss ionors to the same. I am
aware of the fact that they know it
to be unsafe, as evidenced by an
advertisement recently inserted in
The News AND HERALD. But this is
not all that is necessary for the
travelling public. Why notify them
that the bridge is unsafe, and make
no arrangement by which the
stream could be crossed ? regard
the bridge just at the present as
imminently dangerous, and believe
that in less than one month, some
accident will happen there, unless
it be averted by the timely action
Of our County Commissioners.
There should be no delay in the
matter. The Commissioners should
arrange with the land holders,
az once for crossing or ford, and
cease usi g the bridge. On both
sides Of the bridge the land is
fenced, and there is no access to the
stream. CAUTION.

men to represent her. This is the
advice given by Governor Hampton,
and it would be uncommonly good
advice by whomsoever given. In
choosing representatives to consult
for the good Of the State, people
should lay aside personal prejudices $
and vote for those who can do most
good. Just as important is it to
select proper persons to fill all the
other offices in tho State and coun-
ty. While Radicalism can never
again be rehabilitated, as such, in
South Carolina, the integ rity of
tho Democratic party, as opposed
to bolts and schisms, depends large
ly upon the character of the officials
elected. They must not be chosen
by any clique or combination, but
must enjoy the confidence of the
public. We regret to see any side
issues spring up which may defeat
tho main objects before us-Demo-
cratic supremacy and good govern
ment in South Carolina. The peo~
PIE cannot afford to be divided.
Entire unanimity is the watchward
of success. Let the best men be
selected for office.

A Tribute to the State,

In speech prepared on the
MISUNDERSTANDING contest in Con
gress, Colonel Evins thus speaks OF
South Carolina
"Wbo, while wandering through
the beautiful art gallery Mt the
other end Of the avenue, which the
munificence of a distinguished resi-.
dent Of this city has dedicated to
the public, has not felt his steps
arrested, rs his eyes fell upon the
brave words-'The crime makes the
shame and not tho scaffold has
not had his heart to throb with in
expressible emotion as no looked
through the window gratinSs of tho
prison cell into that face so sad and
weary with troubled thoughts, and
into those mournful eyes, with their
touching expression of quiet, patient
endurance, which the genius of the
artist has made to speak SO
eloquently from the canvas. AS
gazed upon the picture with deep
est interest, it suddenly became to
me no longer the face of Charlotte
Corday, but the impersonation of
the genius of my own Palmetto
State, prosecuted, insnited, incar
cerated by the merccnary and heart
less stranger, and the false and
traitorous renegade thus she stood
peering through her prison bars,
during all those dark days of which
l have spoken ; pure and undefiled,
without the crime which makes tho
shame,' waiting with a calm cndu-
rance her hour of crucitixion, while
still hoping, almost against hope,
for the hour of her deliverance.
With grateful and joyful heart
turned away, remembering that tho
prison bars had already been broken.
and the sceptre of pure and honest
government already restored to her
hands"
