Moseley Newg,

Well, Mr.. Editor, will try to collect
my mind together again long enough to
give you few scattering dots, although
our readers need not expect much of us,
since we have been reading Rev. E r.
Carswell's prophecy concerning the COM
ing of the Messiah. We are metlitating
on how solemn it will be to hear men,
women and children crying, and for the
rocks and mountains to fall on us and
hide US from the face of God. Neverthe-
less, the crops are looking we'll and the
people are cheerful, and we hope the far
mers will not become alarmed and quit,
thinking that they will make enoug b this
wear to last until the end Of time.
There has been only one death since the
last writing, and that was o colored WO-
woman living on Capt. Barnes plantation.
And we have no marriages to report this
time but think. we will soon be able to
report one, as we heard Of one of our wild.
overs looking cross.eyed at the young
ladies while at Church last Sunday. We
are also expecting to hear Of some of the
young men in our neighborhood losing
their hearts, as We have in our commu-
nifty one of Augustus finest young ladies'.
Our blacksmith has, by the assistance OF
Mr.. V. H. W, gotten up new plan for

We can very easily understand why
some of our neighbors are always IN the
grass, after hearing the conversation that
passed between Mr.. M. and Mr.. 3. the
other day. On meeting NJ. makes in.
uuiry of S. as to how he was getting along
with the grass. s. replied that he was a
little behind, and proceeded to inquire OF
NJ. as to how he was getting along. NJ.
replied that he was up and had been
thinking of coming over to help brother
8. out. "Yes," replied S., "come and
bring your gun, and We will 80 squirrel
hunting on that day."
The good people of our neighborhood
celebrated the fourth day of July by gath
ering themselves together and orga nizing
Methodist Church, after hearing an elo-
quent sermon preached by Rev. 3. Nd.
Merritt. They have named the Church
Concord. The organization consisted of
forty members. This is good start, and
we wish them q long life and much JOY.
Mr.. D. N. McAllister was visited last
Saturday by relatives living in the city OF
Anderson,
We would be glad to hear from new
correspondent from Moseley, but if there
is no other young lady or gentleman who
will write, you may expect to hear from ;.

Last Tuesday morning, about o'clock,
the carriage house on Mr.. P. B. Aliens
premises at Starr was destroyed by fire.
The house, which was two.story struct.
ure and recently erected. contained, be-
sides carriage and two buggies, sixteen
barrels of -four, lot of hams, bacon and
other provisions, tools, implements, etc.,
all of which, except the vehicles, were
burned. The building was very near Mr..
Aliens dwelling house, and for awhile it
was feared the flames would reach the lat.
ter, but it escaped any damage. The total
loss will probably reach $500. It is be-
lieved to be the work of an incendiary.
Last Saturday was most enjoyable

Delays are Dangerous.
The benefits accruing to poor men from
carrying life insurance have recently had
at least two striking exempli6cations in
this county in the deaths of Messrs. De.
Witt G, Holcomb and 8. B. BroWnlee.
Eaol Of these two had only paid an annual
premium and settlements were promptly
made as soon as the necessary papers
were made out. Mr.. Holcomb was
insured in the Mutual Benefit, of Ne.
wark, N. j., which Is represented in the
Fork by G.. N. G. Boleman, and In this
city by g. W. Miller. This is one of the
strongest and most reliable companies, be-
ing in it's 46th year of existence and hav-
ing 80 millions of assets. It deserves
special mention for its prompt settlements,
having adjusted Mr.. Holcomb's claim
within ten days ftom the time proof was
made.
''Delays are Dangerous."-Every one
should promptly attend to this important
matter and thereby protect their wives and
children, in case of death, from the dread
full inconvenience of poverty. Look out
for the Agents of the Mutual Benefit Life
Insurance Company, and take policy
