ITEMS FROM BLAcKST0CK.

Rev. W. G. Neville preached his
farewell sermon in the Presbyterian
Church at Blackstock on last Sabbath
TO one of the largest congregations
that has assembled in the church since
DR.. Girardeau's unsurpassed eloquence
and powerful sermons few years
ago attracted such large audiences.
1t seems that it had generally been
known that Bethel Presbytery had at its
recent call meeting dissolved the pas
toral relations existing between Mr..
Neville and Concord Church to take
effect on the last Sabbath, and that Nr.
Neville would, on that day, preach his
farewell sermon. Many from the
! different neighboring denominations,
anxious to hearthis popular preachers
last discourse, attended. Before the
bell sounded the hour for tue COM
mencement of the services the church
! had been filled to its utmost capacity,
and the ushers found much trouble
in seating those who came in after the
services began. Mr.. Neville preached
most appropriate: interesting and
instructive sermon. and. during its
delivery tears were shed in profusion,
not only by many in the congregation,
but by the speaker himself over
the severing of this sacred pastoral
tic that had for nearly five years bound
them together in a common love and
fellowship.
At the close of the Sabbath school
services Rev. W. G. White, the yener-
able pastor of Lebanon Church, arose
and supporting himself on his crutch
and with a voice trembling with emo
ton delivered very touching address,
more particularly addressed to the
Sabbath School.
Mr.. Neville and family will leave to-
morrow for Cokesbury, where they
viii! spend few weeks among rela-
tiYes and friends before going to
Frankfort, Kentucky.
Rev. r. P. Smith, of Bullock's Creek
Church, has been invited to preach in
the church at Blackstock on the fifth
Sabbath of this month, oStensibly
with view to call.
The cotton crops in this secrion,
though somewhat injured by the re-
cent rains, are still very promising,
and of the devastating hosts of cater
pillars that paid us so unwelcomed
and Obstructive visit about this time
last year, q return Of which some of
us are expecting with quite a degree
of anxiety, will only forget to come
this year, OF at any rate defer their
visit for two or three months, an ex-
ceptionally large crop will yet be
made.
The weather now is exceedingly
favorable for. fodder pulling, and all
the farmers are now brsily engaged in
that line of business.
Mrs. J. y. Brice, of Chester, is ROW

ILErrER FROM LIUEENs COUNTY.

LETTER FROM LIUEESS COUNTY.
SPRING GROVE, August Is The
crops in cur section arc fine, both in
Newberrv and Laurens. The rains
had been somewhat partial iii the
early summer, which i'll some places
injured the March corn, but for q few
weeks past we nave had an abundance
tof rain. We are now having cool, fall
like weather, very fine both orpulling
and saving fodder, and perhaps nine
out of ten Of our farmers are thus
engaged.
! The political fever has subsidized, and
things have quieted down. Newbery
and Laureus are all right, although
some would prefer a ?after this word
':right" 1t is, sometimes at least,
wise to agree to disagree. And here
I will say that the best thing have
read during all this heated canvass is
an article from the pen of ~. 2. T" )"
of Columbia, Q suppose Col. Thomas),
which I read week or two since,
probably in Ncwberry paper. And
+ would kindly though voluntarily
recommend those whose pulsations
have reached fever heat to read it
carefully to calm their nerves and
reduce their pulsations. Whoever
may be our Governor, much that has
been said and done during this can
yass, will no doubt, hereafter be
regretted. We urs brethren, and not
enemies,-:'it is time to unload."
Messrs. Editors, will you confer the
favor on Your readers (for my benefit
especiallv) of informing us as to the
best map of South Carolina, where it
can be obtained, and what is the price.
I wish one (not 4 railroad map) for
all general purposes. A few years
ago The NEWS AND HER. recon-
mended some new map to its readers.
but I have forgotten what and where.
Is the constitution of the United
States with all its amendments pub
lished separately? If 80 where can it
be had? I have about half dozen
histories of the United States, but
don't know that I have the constltu-
ton in my library.
Speaking of maps just now calls to
mind the :'Peerless Atlas of the " orld,' ~
which suppose you have seen, pub
lished by Mast, Crowell & kirkpatrick, K,
Springfield, Ohio, size IA by II inches.
1t is far better than anything have
ever seen. 1t is affirmed to be better
every way, and to contain larger and
finer maps than are found in S. and

every home, store, Office and counting
room in the land. The first siXty-four
pages are devoted to maps; remaining
thirty-two pages (with three columns

1889, and made by tine canvassing board and
clerk on Nov. Z. 1889, both show very
clearly that these persons were elected,
ana that the five persons who ected in
the Iron hall as represen tatiYes were net
elected by the people of Silver Bow county.
The territorial board OF canvassers on NoY.
4, 1889, issued certificates to the five persons
not elected by throwing out tho vote of
precinct No. 81 in said county, which had
given large majority to the democratic
candidates for representatives who voted
Tor MesSrs. Clark and Maginuis.
WITHOUT RIGHT OR AUTHORITY.
This act was done without any right or
authority on their part to do the same.
They had the full returns of the true vote
or that county before them. Without any
cause Or reason whatever, this board, being
wholly republican, and anxious to serve
tnelr party in what they thought was a
great emergency, refused to count or cam
yasS the real vote of the people of Silver
Bow county, and certified to the election Of
the i've persons not chosen by the people in
the hope, and with the expectation that these
spurious representatives might in some way
vote for partisans of their own political
faction as candidates for the United States
Senate
The majority report was signed by all
the republicans on the committee, and
the minority report by all the democratic
members, including Mr.. Turpie, who was
reported to have declared his intention of
making a report Recommending that the
case be referred back to the people Of Mon
tana for settlement.
FOUR RESOLUTIONS.
Mr.. Hoar reported four resolutions, two
OF them declaring that Messr5. Clarke and
Maginniss were net entitled to the seats,
aud the other two declaring that Messrs.
Saunders and Power were ''entitled, on the
merits of the case, to be admitted to seats u
Resolutions from the minority of the
committee, making opposite declarations,
were reported by Mr.. Gray, and all were
ordered to be printed, Mr.. Hoar giving
notice that he would ask the Senate to con-
slider them Thursday next.

county, it would be constituted separate
county for the purposes Of tho act. A
board, consisting OF the chief secre-
tafy OF Ireland, delegate from
the land department aud a delegate
from tho fishery board, who win be official
members. and five others would be selected
to control cOngesJed districts. \ grant of
would Dc devoted to relieving con-
gestion, assisting tho development
Of the fisheries and otherwise fos-
tering industries and nmeioratiug
The condition Of the poorest districts. Mr..
Balfour, in concluding, defended the scheme
as without any conceivable risks 60 the i'm
perial taxpayer, while the G33 900, 600 ad-
or the Ashbourne act, would establish
perpetual fund, from which future pur.
chases of tenants might be made.
Mr. Gladstone, in brief speech, said that
the scheme was certainly very complicated,
and that thanks were due Mr. Balfour for
the obvious pains he had taken in its prepa-
ration. 1t was premature, he added, to dis
cuss the involved proposals OF the bill, which
required close scrutiny. Tho bill passed
first reading.
GLADSTONE sPEAKs AT A BANQUET.
Mr. Gladstone made speech at a dinner
at the national library tonight. In the
course OF his remarks he spoke OF the new
land bill as bold measure which involved
the British taxpayers assuming large
peouniary liability and which therefore de-
manded searching consideration. Re-
ferring to the Parnell commission,
he said he could not conceive of
shorter method Of suicide than that
adopted by the House Of Lords on Friday
iii approving the commissions report The
government, in allowing the commission of
judges to decide questions Of libel. had re-
stored to them the power bestowed exolu-
sively on Juries by an UNIFORMED parlia-
ment The commission was crippled and
one-sided inasmuch as it did not condemn
the Tunes. The tory majority had invented
political methods which were MS new fam
gled as they were abominable
PARNELL CALLS 1T ABSURD
DUBLIN, March 24.--The FreemGn's
Journal reports an interview with Mr.
Parnell on the subject of the land purchase
bill He said the bill was absurd and OBJ
Jectionable in the highest degree. The
liability which the English taxpayer will
not incur il Is clearly proposed to transfer
to the Irish payer. That the object of the
government Is To initiate tho value of Irish
land to an inordinate extent ia clearly
disclosed in Mr. Balfour's speech. The
fatal defect In the measure is that IL pro-
poses TO give no local control over its ad-
minIstration. In that respect Mr.. Paruell
says it is a long way behind Secretary
Treyellyan's bill.
Mr.. DaYitt Is equally pronounced against
the bill as an insidious props sal to give the
landlord more than the value OF his land
Mr.. Sexton says the bill is less favorable
to the tenant than the Ashbourne act.
Landlords are to receive government
stock at 294 per cent interest, payable in
not less than thirty years, and to be ex-
changeahle for consuls wherever preferred

forty minutes.

priated by the bill was $24, 720, 900, OF
which S22, S74 600 wes for the benefit of the
old soldiers Of the country.
The recommendations of the committee
were agreed to, and a conference was or
dered.
The floor was then accorded to the COM
mituee on the District of Columbia.
The first bill called up, and which was
considered in committee OF the whole, was
the Senate bill authorizing the establishment
of a public park in the District of Colum-
bia. After long debate an amendment
was adopted providing that the total cost Of
the land shall not exceed the amount of
money appropriated by the bill, 81, 200, 00Q
Pending further action the committee
rose and at 5 o'clock the House adjourned
