men in the ministry, what we all want, if we are to make the printing press an ally in Christian work is that which the re- porter spoken of suggested--points, sharp points, memorable points. But If the thing be dead when uttered by living voice, it will be hundredfold more dead when it is laid out in cold type.
 Now, as you all have something to do with the newspaper press, either in issu- ing paper or in reading it, either as producers or patrons, either as sellers or purchasers of the printed sheet, pro- pose on this Sabbath morning, June 1T, 1888, treaty to be signed between the Church and the printing press, treaty to be ratified by millions of good people if we rightly fashion it, treaty promising that we will help each other in our work of trying to illumine and felicitate the world, we by voice, you by pen, we by speaking only that which is worth print ing,you by printing only that which is fit to speak. You help us and we will help you. Side by side by these two potent agencies until the judgment day, when we must both be scrutinized for our work, health- full or blasting. The two worst of men in that day will be the minister of relig- ion and tho editor, if they wasted their opportunity. Both Of us are the engineer of long express trains of influence, and we will run them into depot of light or tumble them of the embankments.
 What useful life and what glorious departure was that of the most famous of all American printers, Benjamin Frank lin, whom infdels in the penury of their resources have often fraudulently claimed for their own, but the printer who moved that the Phila- delphia convention be opened with prayer, the resolution lost because ma jority thought it unnecessary, and who wrote at the time he was viciously at- tackled: My rule is to go straight for ward in doing what appears to me to be right, leaving the consequences to Provi- dence," and who wrote this quaint epitaph showing his hope of resurrection, an epi- taph that hundreds of times read while living in Philadelphia.

OBITUARY.

On the morning OF. October 24th, 1888, the Angel
of Death came into our midst and bore away IN
its icy embrace the pure spirit Of Mrs. Il. JAMIE
daughter of ]. E. &. and Sarah Branyan. Mrs.
Ashley was born and raised in Abbeville Co.. s. c.,
but after she married moved to Anderson Co., and
has resided here ever since, being at the time OF
her death thirty mine. years Of age. She was a
tionate, making a friend Of every one with whom
she became acquainted. For number Of years
she was consistent and active member Of the
Baptist Chn-ch, and during her Illness bore her
sufterings with that patience and fortitude char:
acteristic Of q true Christian. She leaves behind
her bereaved husband aud four children-also,
seven step children-who hayo the sympathy of q
host of friends and an extensive acquaintance In
their bereavement. Though taken from the home
where affection held her In fond embrace, and
ported to q fairer home, Where pleasures are real
aud happiness eternal. We cherish her memory
as green isle In the Bea Of time, and the waves
never stepped In their elements an island OF a
more true and noble heart. After appropriate
funeral services, conducted by her pastor Hey; B;
Cemetery.
She is among the angels,
On the blissful, shining ahore,
Where the brightest su9beams linger,
And the gloom Of night Is or.
Just beyond the silent river
She Is dwelling With the blest,
Since she left us all for heaven,
Where the pure in heart find rest.
She is among the angels,
Pure ind spotless ono above,
Living mid celestial blossoms
In that home Of endless love;
And with loving ones in glory,
She Is waiting for that day
When her friends on earth will meet her,
never more 'soA'O''S' = a s:FisiiEN FRIEND.
