January 1i.-Romulus Sturdivant, an cstima-
hle citizen residing in wake County, has u son
named John, lG years old, who said to an as
sembagc last week that he had received d.
lect injunction from God to preach the Gospel
TO all the nations of the earth, and that this
injunction had been accompanied by a declara-
tisn on the part of the Almighty that in order
TO further the confidence of the people in the
special call made upon him, the boy would be
made blind for two days and nights.
The boy was stricken blind at ] clock last
night, and still continues in that condition, but
lie says he will be restored Tomorrow night
lie snys God also told him that if the people
did not believe the injunction given another
command and test would be instituted The
boy preached his first sermon last Thursday
night, and last night preached again. He says
that 6 cd prescribed the text, which was taken
from lst Samuel, 18th chapter, and the latter
clause of the second verse: IL have followed
Thee from my childhood, even unto this day."
The boy has been attending school. He is in
good health and has an ordinary education.
While preaching he appears as if asleep, or in
trance, but when The benedcton is announced
he throws out his arms and shows evidence of
revival.

Dr.. DANIEL DEcLISxs.-Memphis, Tenn,
January l6.-Some time ago the First Presby-
terian Church Of Columbia, s. c., extended O
call to the Rev. Dr. Eugene Daniel, one of the
leading ministers Of this city and ono of the
foremost theologisns of the Presbyterian
Church in the Southern States. DR.. Daniel
has for the past eleven years been intimately
connected with the best interests Of the Church
here, aud the news Of the call to Columbia and
the fear that he would accept the same were
matters Of serious and grave regret TO his con-
gregation. In order, therefore, to show to DI.
Daniel the high esteem in which he is held and
their appreciation OF bis services his congrega-
tion gave expression on last Sunday TO their
feelings in q marked and pleasant manner. On
that day, in accordance with the unanimous
recommendation Of the session, the congrega.
tion here by unanimous rising vote urged Dr.
Daniel TO decline the call to Columbia. Imme-
diately after this action Of the church com
mittee. consisting Of the most influential mem
bers Of the congregation, waited on DIR. Daniel
and pressed upon him the request of the
church that he should remain. The committee
pleasantly said to DR.. Daniel that their only
difficulty was In making the vote "more than
unanimous"
The eloquent appeal Of the congregation had
the effect Of inducing DR.. Daniel to accept the
call TO his own church and he has telegraph
his regrets to the church In Columbia which
extended the call.-Neics and Courier.

CONTEMPLATING IN NEwBERRY.- ewberry,
y. G., January l8.--Some Of our merchants
were made nervous day or two ago by the
appearance Of n counterfeit twenty dollar gold
piece. The coin had every appearance Of be-
ing genuine, bat when il was carried to the
bank to be deposited and the teller, as 10 his
custom, dropped !. on his desk as O test, IL
failed to give forth the eloquent clink OF the
genuine coin. 1t consequently fell back to the
depositor, who traced it through several Gus
toners to couptryman, who says that he re.
ceived it in Columbia as the genuine article
Several gold coins of similar character but dif.
ferent denomination have circulated in New
berry lately. A suspicion is now desired.

the sudden and suspicious disappearance of Mr..
W. II. Pool, o merchant, and Miss Fannie
Graham, a very pretty young lady, only daugl-
ter Of Mr.. W. 7. Graham, a prosperous mer-
chant of this town. Tho first intimation re-
ceived by the parents Of the young lady that
their daughter had cloped with Pool was from
Rev. ". NJ. Foster, who had been called to
marry them, short distance from town, but
refused, and Immediately went to Mr.. Graham
aud informed him Of what wa, going on. But
it wss~too late. The fleeing couple were in a
buggy behind fast horse. and their route not
known. About four o'clock in the afternoon
news came that they were seen on the road to
Cross Keys, their horse in q foam. That even
ing. We learn, they were married at Cross An.
chor. Miss Graham was but little moro than
fourteen years old, and her unaccountable con-
duct has left her parents in great distress.

CLEVELAND oN his METTLE.-Washngton
January lS.--Thc Democratic Senators will meet
i'll caucus 10 morrow to hear report from the
committee, consisting Of Senator's Harris. Vest
and Makcy, designated last week to consult the
President with reference to the objections raised
hy the Republicans against certain Presidential
nominations. The committee spent over two
hours at the White House and the subject was
fully discussed. The President firmly maintains
that he can with propricty decline to give in
detail his reasons for making certain changes
and i'll this position he sustained by the
committee. If the Republicans insist upon being
stubborn and refuse to act upon those nomina-
honS involving the question of suspension, the
situation will probably remain unchanged until
the ma oriry OF the Senate yield to the constitu-
tional prcrogativcs of the Executive for the lat
ter has the assurance Of the most distinguished
men III his own party and the confidential ad-
mission of several leading Republicans that his
course has been fair and should he sustained.
y Democratic Senator who talked with the
President to-day on this subject says that the
latter is astonishcl and provoked at the action
of the Republicans in the Senate, and he will not
he inimidated nor driven from the position he
h'S taken in the matter. lie is fully aware of
"rS Constitutional power to make removals and
any caec. If the Republicans insist upon having
au explanation from him regarding suspensions
lie may consider it no more than proper to reply
TO them. His reply, however, will contain very
little comfort and no information such us they
desire. but he will tell them in his usual dignificd
terms that certain changes have been made with
view to increasing the efficiency of the public
service. Such an answer may not be satisfactory.

Delightful German.
Last Monday night very delightful German
WAS given at the Hotel. To attempt q de-

sufficient to say that they were very beautiful
and handsome.
About 0 o'clock the band struck up its sweet
music and tho German commenced, being led
by Mr.. Nat Gist and Miss Bessie Farrar.

The German continued until nearly one
o'clock, when the band eommenced to play

their way home, having had, a. one gentleman
expressed it, "a gorgeous time"
Too much credit cannot be awarded to Mr..

which they led the German.
The Band which furnished music for this oc-

noted for their splendid music but we have
seldom heard better music than that which was
furnished by the Union String Baud last Mon

serves great credit for its management. We
sincerely hope that this will not be the last

Contempt Of Court
On last Friday, whilst the trisl of q case was
going on in the Court House, before Trial Jus
tice Johnson, disturbance took place between
two of the witnesses, one q white man the other
coiored, which ut one time looked as if some

others, it was speedily quelled, and deputy
Sheriff Long took charge of the offending par

After hearing before the Trial Justice, both
