Xmas Eve at the Orphans Home
There was considerable number of
visitors at the Orphans Home last
evening to witness the exercises and
the distribution of gifts among the chill
dren. The entire programme, as laid
out by Colonel and Mrs. Mills, passed
off excellently, and it is certain that
there was not happier lot of little
ones in the State than were at the
Home last night.

Preaching at Ninety-ThI e..

The Rev. Edward Palmer, of Barn
well, S. G., now in the ninety-third
year of his age, being unable to attend
the late meeting of the Synod of South
Carolina, wrote a letter, in which he
said: cat my advanced age-just
closing up my ninety-third year, &C
companied by the usual imfirmities
and failings Of protracted life-I am
unable to accomplish all that an earlier
period Of time would fit one to perform.
1t may not be out Of place, however,
to state that ever since my resignation
OF tie pastorate in 1875 l have been
able to preach once on each Sabbath to
the little destitute church at Barnwell
the home of my only daughter--dur-
ing the summer months, visiting, as l
have usually done, my two SOUS in New
Orleans and Mobile the winter season.
l begin sensibly to feel the witherings
of age, and cannot hope, even if in
dulged with prolonged life, to do much
of acteal labor. God has been very kind
in lengthenins my days and allowing
me to 90 the little l have done or at
tempted to do, for which desire to
feel profoundly thankful. May that
little have been accepted while mani
fold failings have been forgiven"

Carlyle on sham.

Carlyle on sham.
Carlyle's hatred Of sham wac fearless
ly expressed. On one occasion, when a
lady of distinction, at whose house the
Scotch philosopher was guest, be-
walled the wickedness of the Jews
in not receiving Jesus as their Savior,
she finished her diatribe by saying ::
How different would have been His
reception had he appeared in our time
How delighted we should all be
to throw our doors open to Him, and
listen to His divine precepts! Don't
yeu think so, Mr.. Carlyle "' The plain
spoken philosopher thus appealed to,
said ia his broadcast Scotch accent "No,
madam, 1 don't. / think had He come
with plenty of money and good recon-
mendations, and fashionably dressed,
and preached doctrines palatable to the
higher orders, l might have had the
honor to receive from your Ladyship
card of invitation, on the back of which
would have been written, TO meet our
Savior;' but if he had come denouncing
those aristocrats, and Pharasees, and
assoeiating with Publicans and Radicals |
Of the day, we should have treated Him |
now very much as the Jews did then,
md cried out, Take Him to Newgate
md hang Him."

Fresh Goods.

Fresh Goods.
After long and vexatious delay the
remaining portion of the holiday goods
CT John G. Fox arrived on Friday
Although he has had all along an ex-
cellent assortment from which to choose,
there were certain articles which should
have been here fortnight ago, but
owing to the hardness of the shippers
did not reach here until Friday.
However, MIR. Fox reasons like phi
losopher, and as his new goods are
something extra, consoles himself with
the old saying of better late than never
He now wishes the public to give him
a call and examine his new stock.
There is great deal to be seen and
now is the time to make the view,
OF the new goods we noticed some
beautiful ladies' velvet plush lined cases,
picture frames, trimmed with silk vel
vet of different colors music boxes,
discoursing favorite airs; napkin rings,
special plated; some additional books,
by leading authors, tree calf binding,
ETC.; toilet cases, card receivers, silver
ware, children's books. picture easels,
albums, toilet looking glasses, and a
great many other things too numerous
to mention. The public are assured
that the above articles are Of the best
quality, and will be sold at reasonable
rates. Remember the place, JIG. Fox.
Fischer & Decker will to-day set q
fine sauerkraut, turkey and cranberry
sauce lunch.
The Orms5y House will set an extra
ordinary dinner to-day. Those who
know what an excellent table can be
found there ordinarily, can imagine
what to-day's dinner will be.
Everybody is invited to call in at the
Monarch Saloon to-day and partake of
a glass of Christmas egg nog. A fine
lunch will be spread, and Olson extends
a Merry Christmas to all.
There will be grand layout to-
morrow at the Hole-in-the- Wall, Cap
in the way of roast pig, pot
pie, etc. The hall of the Opera House
will be used for the spread.
Vic Muller, of the Headquarters Sa-
Don, was very busy all day yesterday
for an extra lunch for to-day.
He says that when he wishes person
Merry Christmas he likes to give +,
good at the same time. .
Pascal, of the Opera Hall Restaurant, q
opposite the Opera House, proposes to
,et up Christmas dinner to-day and
o-morrow for the benefit of his board
rs and all others who may give him a
all. Pascal knows how to do it.

The mortgage business is very
serious thing-especially when pay
day comes, and there's nothing to
pay with except mortgaged property.
\ man does not lose his manhood by
mortgaging, but for the time being
he is not his own but another's. The
way for farmers to get out of such
troubles is to live hard, work hard,
pay their debts promptly, and raise
more corn and pigs. Any man of
energy and health can get beyond
the reach of mortgages in three years
time if he will, unless he is hopeless
ly in debt at the. start. We want to
see our farmers free from these hide

y CORRESPONDENT OF the Jones
boro Times in writing on " Prohibi-
tion VS.. License, puts this argument
of the friends of prohibition in 50
strong a light that its force can not
be evaded:
Again they [the advocates of pro-
hibition will further press the fact
that it has been repeatedly declared
by the highest judicial tribunal in
the state that the manufacture of and
traffic in Intoxicating liquors are not
constitutional rights, and are per-
missiye priviledges only when au-
thorized by Legislative enactment.
To this they will add that it has been
long and universally conceded that
intemperance is an evil that ought in
some way to be mitigated, if not
wholly eradicated.
Ii is on this point, perfectly plain
and absolutely incontrovertible, that
the friends of the license system in
this state become greatly confused
They take that as constitutional
right which is only a privilege l.

Stage Coach A-musements.

A lively writer in one of the Paris
journals describes the playful tricks with
which the occupants of omnibusses while
away the tediousness of o long drive.
One will set the others all yawning by
means of series of yawns on his part.
Another will secretly bring into the We
hicle a small bag full of vivacious snails,
which are furtitely allowed tomake their
way to the garments of the unsuspect-
ing passengers. The third joke is taking
the silver piece which is passed by a lady
to be handed to the conductor, and in a
pretended fit of abstraction to carefully
insert it into the operators purse, from
which it is released after some discussion
with an air of incredibly that the claim
made by the owner is unfounded. Or
when a passenger of anything like sus-
picious aspect enters the omnibus one
will begin by staring very hard at him,
and then, when he is not looking, pull
out a notebook and pencil and take notes
of him with great assiduity. The other
passengers straightway suppose that the
note-taker is a detective, and that the
other individual is a criminal of some
sort, the consequences being hat he is
regarded with suspicion and repugnance
not only during the rest of the journey,
but on any other occasion when he may
happen again to be ecountered.
