Mr.. EDIToR: had the pleasure of hold
! ing religious services at the Poor House in
this County on last Sabbath and of admin
istering the Communion to the colored in
mates. must say I never enjoyed any
's.r 1ice more than that one. They took
great interest in thu meeting, and one old
lady joined the Church. This is certainly @
good field for The labors of Christian minis
tiers, though our colored ministers have neg
lected 1t so far. ! hope they will do better
in the future, and that some way will be
provided to have services for them every
Sunday. They are we'll cared for in other
respects, having plenty of food and clothing
and very. good houses to live in. heard
no complaint from any one, indeed, they
all speak in the highest terms of the Super
intendent, Mr.. Stevenson, ard his wife.
They are only neglected in one particular,
and that is in not having the gospel preached
te them every Sunday, which is our fault.
There were several other ministers present
with me, aud know thoy will endorse
what have said. Preaching will be had
again at the Poor House ON the first Sunday
in April. The candidates will also be bap-
tised on that day. Respectfully,
ELIAS TERRELL,
