England's Sunday.

I ana deeply sensible Of the many ma
ti0nal sins Of my own country. We
have abundant cause for humiliation.
The strfes and divisions of Christians
the quantity of semi Romanism and
skepticism tolerated in our own ranks
the bitterness and unscrupulou
of political factions the commercial
frauds among the middle classes the
gambling and the luxury Of the upper ten
thousand the drunkenness Of the lower
half milion-all these sins, I am well
aware, cry against us to heaven. But
still, after all, in fallen world like
this, things must be measured by COM
did not thank God for what we have.
Where in the world will you find so
much preaching Of real gospel-so
much circulation Of the Bible and sound
religious iterature-so much money
and labor bestowed on efforts to do good
so much care for life and property
so much thought for the sick and the
poor and the afficted-so much liberty,
and yet so much obedience to Law
so much outward morality-so much
family purity-where, I ask any one
looking at the map of the globe, where
will you find so much as in our own
country? No doubt there are plenty
Of abuses and defects among us. I
neither deny, extenuate nor palliate
them. But at any rate we have moth
ing to compare with the Nihilism of
Russia, the Socialism of Germany, the
restless, revolutionary spirit and Com
munism of France, the brigandage and
assassination Of Italy, or the lazy, ig-
norant superstition and Sunday bull
fights Of Spain. ~a (.
And why is it? How Is ii that hui
man nature in our little island is under
so much restraint, and develops a less
amount of corruption than human ma
ture in other lands? I answer boldly
that one great cause OF the difference
is our English Sunday. Look at Sun
day in London, with its 4, 900, 900 Of in
habitants. See how the immense ma
jority of shops through miles and miles
and miles of streets are shut up and
business suspended. See how postoffce,
and banks, and exchanges, and law
courts, and theaters, and museums, and
picture galleries are all closed. See
what hundreds Of churches and chapels
and Sunday-schools are opened, and
what myriads Of people attend them in
spite Of the attractions Of river and rail
and then turn to any great continental
metropolis Paris, Madrid, Naples,
Vienna, Berlin-and mark how Sunday
is observed in them Mark the extent
to which Gods holy day is given up tc
military reviews, to races, to bull-fghts
to theater- going, to dancing, to con
certs. to Measure seeking of every sort
to everything, in short, excepting God
Mark all these things, and learn ont
grand reason why the standard of ne
ligion is so much higher in our owl
country, with all its sins, than it is else
where. There is an inseparable con
nection between the observance of tn
Lords day and the prosperity Of tru'
religion. Voltaire was quite right whe1
he said that he could never succeed il
destroying Christianity unless he de
stroyed Sunday. 1t is the English Sun
day which makes England what it u.s.

THE EIEoTnoN M rn1s COUNTY.

The election in Anderson County on
last Tuesday was generally quiet, though
very intense interest pervaded the
voting at most precincts. There was lit
tie or no interest felt in the State or
County tickets, as there was no opposi-
tion 10 them. and every effort centered on
the Presidential race. The negroes were
more aolid and inapproachable than they
have ever been, aud for tho most part
voted the Republican ticket. They came
to the polls in large companies, and in
many cases, would not talk with any
white man until after they had voted.
They were iusoicut ant; defiant, anu ii
showed thorough drilling that was far
more perfect than it was in 1876 or 1878.
Ex-senator Cochran was appointed
Ge..a..;i. Ce.... Chairman Chairman &C he Republican
party about ten days before the election,
and did his work most effectively. Il
was the hardest work possible 10 break
the aolidity Of the colored vote, though
by dint of persuasion mud argument We
managed to indnce q great many of them
TO vote the Democratic ticket. In addi.
tioE 20 this we had q white ticket, aa
exact Jae splilc Of the Republicans ticket,
and nans pegroes voted 1t, amounting TO
probably ttso hundred in the County,
which increased our majority from three
to four hundred votes.
The election shows that the negro will
woe the Republican ticket whenever his
old leaders tell him to do 80, and that as
"a class be has no more reason than q
wAle. Tae election here was anything
