County.
Batesburg's New Preacher.
Rev. ]. X. Pace, lately of Mayesville,
Ky. has accepted the invitation OF the
Batesburg Baptist Church 10 become its
pastor, and will shortly return to South
Carolina, where be has so many friends.
Mr.. Pace will devote one week in each
! month 10 missionary work in Lexington
County, in the employment Of the State
Board We are rejolced that Batesburg
has secured so valuable man, who will
be cordially welcomed to his new home.
A New Presbyterian Church.
1t gives rs the profoundest pleasure to
chronicle the fact that new Presbyterian
church will, in all probability, spring up
in our Southern borders very soon. The
leaders in this good move are Mrs, Simp.
son and Mrs. B. p. Tillman. Mrs, Simp-
son is widowed sister Of the Hon. G. D..
Tillman, aud lives at the old Tillman
homestead on Fox's Hill, And very near
this old homestead the new church will
be located. We understand that Capt,
Ben Tlllmap, Capt. John G. Swearengin,
John A. Wise, Esq, and the Hon. g. d
Tlllman have already subscribed literally
to this most praiseworthy undertaking.
For eight or ten months past, the Rev. S
l.. Morris, Of Trenton. has been preach
ing one Sunday afternoon in each month
in the old Tlllman-homestead locality
sometimes in the Hussar Pavilion. And
to his zeal, ably seconded by Mrs. Simp-
son and Mrs. Tillman, is 1ue the promis-
ing effort now being made.
Looking After His Fences.
Senator NJ. C. Butler, efter illustrating
South Carolina right nobly at Washing
ton, has returned to Edgefeld for a few
weeks to look after his fences-not politl-
cal, but agricultural ones. The sight OF
his old Edgefeld home and neighbors has
q tonic effect upon him. The grandeur OF
the Federal Capital is not to be compared
in his mind with the plainest prospect in
South Carolina.-Auguaa Chronicle.
Carp.
The carp fever has reached the Mine
Greek section, Mr.. Thomas Whittle being
the pioneer. He already has his pond
stocked with FOUNDERS from Capt,
Bates pond, at Batesburg. Others are
literally moving the mud" in the fish
pond matter, and ere long the man who
cannot boast Of his carp pond will be the
man who has no mud hole to scoop out.
And we say, go on with your fisheries,
and let this be the motto Of every farmer
IN South Carolina: More corn and less
cotton; more carp and less carping.- Mon
itor.
Faithful Road Overseers.
The road from the Batesburg line to
Clouds Greek has recently been worked
and is now in better condition than at any
time within the memory Of the oldest IL
habitant Mr.. \. c. Whittle is Overseer
from Batesburg to Holston's Cross Roads,
and Mr.. Press Maroney from the latter
point, to the Creek and the admirable
manner in which they have performed a
most difficult task-for this is one OF the
worst sections OF roads in the county
