mind rapidly traverse the length and
breadth Of our State and gather up
our brother ministers in thought and
feeling. whether we know their names
and numbers or not, and present all
before God for these blessings.
Again, should like to enlist all
our denomination to unite in prayer
for our brethren in Charleston. Is it
not point Of such Importance and
surrounded by such difficulties as to
have peculiar claims on our mutual
prayers? Is not tide of strong in
huences setting in against the t.uth,
as we hold it, there? Will it not be
damage to the cause throughout the
State if our churches do not flourish
in the "city by the sea-? How shall
we feel and dc if our churches dwin-
die and our brethren languish there
Let us betake ourselves to prayer
for them. Let us follow brother
Thomas with our prayers as he visits
among the people and as he enters
the pulpit of the old historic First
Church. Let us also encompass the
membership olCitadel Square Church
with our prayers that they may be
united and true while deprived Of a
pastor; and let US callo on God to send
them speedily one of His own choos'
ing, to go in and out among them,
and to lead them to signal victories
in His name.

The rock is carried by lighters TO
the works and mills. These are diyid.
ed into two classes. Some wash and dry
the rock, preparing it for shipment to
the Northern States and to Europe,
where it is ground and prepared Tor
market. Other mills in the South
grind the rock and prepare it for use
as fertilizer. The fertilizing prop.
erty of the rock is the bone phosphate
OF lime. The cheap quality of fertilizer
prepared is manufactured by treating
the ground rock with sulphuric acid.
Higher grades are obtained by mix
ing bone dust, cotton seed meal and
other high grade fertilizers with the
ground rock.
The phosphate beds. when under

During the year 1882 some 10000
tons of rock were fshed up. The
royalty on ribs amounts to about one
fourth of the revenue of South Caro-
lima. The rock dried and ready for
shipment, is sold at an average price
of So per ton on board ship. The
weekly pay of the negroes employed
by companies considering Beaufort
their headquarters, amounts to about
$1,000.

How the Shah Travels.

When the Shah of Persia goes upon
railroad journey, he travels in a train
of palace cars fitted up in the most
gorgeous manner, the dinning-room
car loaded with expensive viands and
costly wines, and Others filled with
his own family, his court, his servants,
cooks, steward and railroad superin-
tendent and u telegraph operator. AS
he has the resources of his kingdom
to draw upon, this royal way of tray
cling is the sole business or grievance
of his subjects who pay the taxes,
but his oppression and disregard of
the travelling public are only possible
when the monarch is absolute and
irresponsible; the people are slaves, will
ling TO submit to despot's tyranny.
The telegraph operator goes with him
to cut the telegraph wires connect
them with his instruments and an
nounce that the roya! train is coming,
and that all trains must be detained.
All trains are ordered out of the way,
and to insure that the royal progress
shall not be delayed, all switches are
set and spiked, so as not to permit
their displacement. All other mems
engagements and convenience are
suDordinated to his, and he goes rush
ing through his empire under a general
royal order to clear the track" This
absolute despot is equally careless of
the lives Of travellers. Nearly all his
revenues are derived from railroad
transportation, and in order to in
crease them to the highest point, he
insists upon the lowest possible ex-
penditure. In consequence Of this
there are collisions between trains
sometimes III tunnels, in which many
| lives are lost, bodies burned and some
of the survivors crippled for life. To
those born and bred in a republic,
the patience, and endurance of these
people under such infflc6ons seem
unexplainablo. Americans would not
tolerate such insolence and cruel in
difference. They wonder that the
Persians do not rebel and depose the
Shah, cut off his head if that is nee
essary to maintain their rights and
restrain other tyrants. The people
Of this. country would soon teach such
oppressors to curb their despotic ways
and respect the rights of those on
whom they depend for the very pow
CT which they abuse-unless these
depots' name were Jay Gould OF Viii
| liam III. Vanderbilt, who is to be
shuttled from New York to San Fran
cisco in less than four days, all trains
to be kept out Of his way on penalty
Of his royal displeasure. The public
who yield him the revenues by which
he has mounted to these nights of
power, would not SO much object to
his exercising it, if he would give the
same care and attention to preserving
their lives, as he does to protecting
his own sacred. person.-Free Press.

NASBY IN THE SOUTH.
A Tour Of Observation in The South.

Mr.. D. R. LO"KE (Nasby), the editor of
the TOLEDO BLADE, and Mr.. ROBINSON
LOCKE, will make tour of the Southern
States. commencing on or about Octoberl5th,
1883, and continuing during the Autumn and
Winter, the object being a series of letter des-
criptive of the whole South.
These letters, which will appear weekly,will
be entirely non political, their object being to
place before the people OF the whole country,
especially the halflnillion readers ofthe BLADE,
such facts as are necessary to a proper compre
hension of the resources of the South.
The great South is entering upon an era OF
development that in the course of a few wears
will work wonderful changes in population and
general wealth. What the Southern States
need, more than anything else, is that its adj
vantages known and understood, to the end Of
diverting thither its proper portion of the mil
lions of people coming into the country, and
the millions more from the North who are
seeking new homes In the North, more is
known of Germany and France than of the
Southern States.
The TOLEDO WEEKLY BLADE has the largest
circulation of any paper published in the
United States, and these letteas will appear
regularly in its columns. In fact the letters
from the South will be its great feature Tor the
coming year. The Importance to the South of
work like this can hardly be oyer-estimated
The letters will not be confined to the regll-
lar tourists routes, nor to descriptions OF what
the regular tourist writes about, Messrs. Locke
will visit interlorpoints, remote from the much
frequented lines of travel they will investigate
personally soil, water-powers, forests and
mines, business facilities and advantages, The
progress made and making, railroads, public
buildings and works, everything, in short. per
tanning to the material development of the
vast country south Of the Ohio and Potomac
Those who have followed the work of the
Messrs Locke in their two years and a half il
| Europe, will understand their method of get
ting information, and their manner OF treat
ment.
These "LEFTERS FROM THE Soul H

about November first and will continue PRO
