Yankee ideas are seemingly having full
sway in the schools Of the Argentine Republic
What is being done in the cause of education
in that country is told in letter from Buenos
Ayres which will be found on the eighth page.
1t is an interesting and an encouraging record.
In searching for an educational model the
Argentines could not have done more wisely
than to come to the United States Not only
did they take the model, but they imported a
number of teachers, and to-day the Schools Of
Application (normal schools) are in charge Of
teachers from the United States. A great
change has taken place there in the last twenty
years in the matter of education, and change
that means progress in the trueSt sense.

The one days sail along the coast between
New York and Portland, usually a pleasant
outing, was far from delightful experience
for the passengers who left Portland last Sat
mday night The Winthrop encountered Sc
we're storm, during which her smokeStack was
broken off With it went her whistle, leaving
the vessel almost helpless in case of dense
fog. The fog came later on, IN Long Island
Sound, but by that time whistle had been i'm
proyised, and danger from the absence of this
useful attachment was averted. 1t is unusual
for the steamers Of this line to have so rough
a voyage at this season. The violence of the
storm near the coast suggests that severe dam
age may have been done out at sea- where its
full fury was felt.

The Baptist State Convention,

Met in its siXty-ninth annual Scs-
sion at Florence, $. G., on last
Thursday, November 18th, with
President }, \. IIoyt, of Grccnvillc,
in the chair.
The Baptists are Il power in South
Carolina. They are the most nu-
mcrouS denomination of the State
and they are thoroughly organized
for effective work Their progress
is rapid and lasting. Their increase
i'll all parts of the State is marked.
The church has insisted upon an
educated ministry, and as IA result
scores OF thoroughly trained young
men are sent out into the field every
year. The Baptists have taken high
ground and are maintaining it. They
cover the entire State and put strong
men in weak places. by that means
they have built up when some other
churches have barely existed
Figures are not always very in
tcrcsting reading, but a few stats-
ties will show ut ii glance the results
of the work OF the Baptists in South
Carolina. Last year there were 800
ordained ministers and 76i churches
The total membership for the State
amounted to 74,2S9. There were
GIG Sunday schools, with 4,103
teachers and 25,209 scholars. The
church raised S0,6GG.35 for State
missions and colportage, $S,300.13
for foreign missions, S3,542i2 for
home missions, &20,263.9S for cdu-
cation, and S133,290.2G for miscclla-
ncous purposes, or a total Of Sl73,-
OG3.l4. The church property of the
State is valued at $74G,975. This is
4 wonderful showing, and is but Il
fair index to the real strength and
power of the church in South Caro-
lima.
The Convention is well olliccrcd.
Its President, Col. James a. IIoyt,
is noted parliamcntarian and cour-
tcous presiding officer. lie is ably
supported by the Vice Presidents,
the Rev. E. G. Dargan and the Rev.
X. w. Sanders. Secretary Thomas
is ably assisted by Mr.. a. B. Wood
ruff. The funds arc safe in the
hands Of Treasurer G. II. JudSon.
The Rev. II. NJ. Galpin, chairman
OF the committee on home missions,
read the report Of the committee.
In this report the negro question
was touched on lightly. The report
said that the negro was here to stay
and the present generation must
solve thc problem. 1t was also
stated that the Gospel must educate
the negro, and said that il it could
he done in Africa it could also be
accomplished in South Carolina.
There was considerable discussion
on the necessity for an educated
ministry, and the good work being
done by Furrnan University. The
Iicv. John stout, ON behalf of the
board Of trustees of Fumnan Uni
vcrsity and Grccnvilc Female Col
logc, read their report, which showed
that both institutions were in a
most satisfactory condition. They
reported I3l students now in attend
ancc at the University, OF whom 80
are IN the collegiate course and "a
studying for the ministry.
DIR. II. Il. Griffith, financial agent
'"f the University, reported that
$4,000 of The 100000 to bo raised
by December, 1890, to secure the
SI3oO from the Education Society
OF New York had been secured in
cash and pledges, and that the Uni
vcrsity now has $4,000 Of invested
funds.
