Easter Day At the Baptist Church.

~EN
The Easter services held in the Baptist
church on Sabbath evening were exceed
ingly attractive. The exercises, religious,
literary and musical were strongly marked
by the earnestness and refinement of
culture that characterize all such events in
this popular church. The beautiful floral
decorations were appropriate to the day
and suggestive Of the sentiments embodied
in the choice music of the choir. After re-
sponsive readings led by the pastor. Rev.
Geo. E. Kline, and superintendent Healy
of the Sabbath school, Master Robert E.
Kline gave a recitation entitled "This land
for Christ" of which the graceful flag,
resting. upon a bible, which formed a part
of the decorations of the platform, formed
the background, and which was rendered
with a grace and spirit highly gratifying
to the friends of this promising youth.
Andrew johnson then recited the bible
story OF the burial and resurrection, and
Mrs. Joseph Wood a reading with much
taste and feeling. A poem on al appro-
pirate theme was beautifully read by Mr..
Il. F. Campbell, and Miss Rosalind Slaugh-
ter read an original poem entitled "Easter
morn," composed by herself for the occa-
sion. Misses Mabel Healy and Myrtle
L CHARLOTTESVILLE gave d uuhl TcCltdUlOn Win
fine effect. Master Willie Brown, in a rec
itation entitled THE boys we need" spoke
some manly sentiments in a manly way.
Two little tots, Bessie Van Houton and
Ralph Gray gave together two bible ex-
tracts. Miss Layetta Gray charmed her
audience with the poem Jerusalem the
beautiful" and Miss Jessie Slaughter re-
cited gracefully an original poem entitled
II shall see thee in the morning" The
solo "Flee as a bird to your mountain"
was rendered in magnificent style by Mr..
Van HOutOn, and wee, Winsome Rita
Morse captured the admiration of the au-
dlence by sWeetly rendering a difficult
recitation. Little Lima Slaughter pleased
all with the rendition of her theme "NOth-
ing to do" and Miss Grace Falkenstine
impressively gave the concluding recita-
ton "The land l see when I shut my eyes,"
The organists were Miss Lille Webb
and Miss Minnie Andrews, and the various
selections given by the choir were of the
highest order of merit.
An THE CATHOLIC CHURCH.
Appropriate Easter services were also
held at the Catholic church. where Father
Mayer preached a very able and appropri-
ate sermon. The feature of the occasion
was the decoration of the pulpit-the
handiwOrk of Miss Maggie Richie, Miss
Slattery and others. The altar was fes
TONED with beautiful evergreens and rare
flowers and presented q charming appear
ance.
Easter services were also held in the
other churches.

LIQUOR DRINKING.

Hon. Chauncey M. 'Depew will
scarcely be accused of fanaticism on
the question Of liquor drinking. Here
is his experience as stated in speech
of his before a company of railroad
men: twenty-five years ago l knew
every man, woman, and child in
Peekskill. And it has been a a.study,
to me to mark boys who started in
every grade of life with myself, to see
what has become of them. / was up
last fall, and began to count them
over, and it was an instructing exhib-
it.. Some of them became clerks,
merchants, manufacturers, lawyers
and doctors. 1t is remarkable. that
every one of those that drank are
dead; not one living of my age. Bar
ring a few who were taken off by sick
ness, every one who proved a wreck
and wrecked his family. did it from
rum and no: other cause. Of those
who were Christians, who were steady,
industrious, and hardworking men,
who were frugal and thrifty, every
single one Of them, without an excep-
ton, owns the house in which he lives,
and has. something laid by, the inter-
est on which, with his house, would
carry him through many a rainy day.
When man becomes debased with
gambling, rum, or drink, he doesn't
care; all his finer feelings are crowded
out. The poor women at home are
the ones who suffer suffer in their
tenderest emotions; suffer in their
affections for those whom they love
better than life. "-Educator.

BETTER ROADS.

The old and great State of New
York is still urging the necessity Of
better roads. The New York Uorld
appeals to the country communities as
follows, which applies equally to oul
parish:
Those who insist that our rural com
munities cannot afford 10 build and main
tain good roads are greatly mistaken.
Every community in the country, except
in the thinlv settled new States. can bet
ter afford good roads than bad 1t is
largely Il question of getting the worth OF
the money that is expended.
And the Times Democrat supple
ments: "The trouble seems to be that
the farmers do not themselves fully
realize the advantage Of good roads.
They know that to build them will
cost something, and they do not ap-
preciate how good ah investment roads
will prove in time, and how much they
will save in the matter Of hauling,
etc. 1t is very much like levee build
ing. The first Investment is very
heavy and expensive, but il pays for
Itself many times over"

ENCOURAGING CROP REPORTS.

Baltimore, Md, Aug. 9th, 1890
The Manufacturers Record'5 annual
review Of the crop situation South,
published this week, notes the LARGEST
crop ever produced. aud states that
farmers are less i'll debt thar at any
time for twenty-five years For five
years the cotton crop has steadily in
creased from 6,505,00 bales in 1886.

present year. The Price has advanced
with the increase i'll the production,
th2 total value of The last four crops,
Including cotton seed, being about
81 100000. The value of this years
crop is estimated at $500, ,00o, 600, thus
bringing the total value for five years
up to s2,00O,000,0G0. While cotton
has thus been adding so enormously
to the South's wealth, corn, wheat, oats,
tobacco, rice, sugar, grasses, fruits and
vegetables have made great gains, and
while some of these crops-corn, for
instance-will this year fall a little

THE NEGLECTED DARKEY.

The colored men all over the coun-
try are gradually becoming impressed
with the idea that in the division of
the spoils they are being much ne
elected. When an occasional colored
Republican is endowed with an office
it is usually located somewhere in the
South, where the color line is vital
issue, and hence the experiences of
the newly appointed officials are far
from pleasant. Mr.. Harrison seems
to take special care not to appoint col
ored postmasters in any Of the North
ern States.
But, on general principles, the ne
gro has been snubbed by the present
administration. The way the spoils
are divided out remind one Of the
man who induced friend to put up
half the money to buy a chance in a
church fair rattle, the understanding
being that they were to divide equal
". The ticket won a very valuable
clock.
"Ah, my dear friend said the par
ty Of the first part, with tears in his
eyes, "if we had only won money, or
it we had won two articles, there
would be no trouble; but, as it is! the
only thing to be done is for me to
keep the clock, and every 1once in a
while you can drop in and see what
time it is.''
Harrison keeps the clock, but the
colored brother will be allowed to drop
in every once in while to see when it
IS time for him to vote again.-Tecas

COLD AUNT SALLIE."

Pearliagton, Miss, Aug. 28th-A
colored woman named Sallie Roach,
famlliarly known for many years past
as "Old Aunt Sallie," died in Gaines
vile to-day. She was the oldest per-
son in this county, and probably in
the United States. She was born
years before the colonies had gained
their independence, and distinctly re-
remembered Gems. Nathaniel Green,
Packenham, and other celebrities of
the Revolution, aud spoke Of the time
when independence was declared,
which she remembered vividly. Old
gray-headed men, whose recollection
runs back fifty years or more, remem-
Der her in their boyhood days as "Old
Aunt Sally" being then too old and
decrepit to do anything but hobble
around and pick up rags. The lowest
estimate that can be put on her age
places it at 1870, while some believe
she is nearer 140. She retained all
her faculties and senses, except sight,
up to the time of her death.
