In your last issue OF the Press and Banner,
under the head lines OF "whiskey at Able
ville," you do the delegation of the House o
Representatives from Abbeville County q
gross injustice, by disappearing them az
follows:
"The present Legislature sanctioned the
.'sale OF whiskey at Abbeville by taxing nc
"notice OF the act Of the previous Legislature
"in repeating the prohibitory act"
One of the first bills introduced In the
House was one by Mr.. Todd repeating the acl
of the former Legislature.
And O second bill was introduced TO sub
m 1t the question TO the voters of Abbeville
County for approval or non approval
The two bills were necessary to place Abbe'
willie In its former position. These bills were
supported and voted for by the entire House
delegation from Abbeville County. In this
form they passed the house and we're sent 10
the Senate, where from some cause they
were continued until the coming session
when they will be acted upon.

Sentiments OH Various Subjects.
BY JOHN HEMMENwAY.

| BY JOHN HEMMENWAY.
1. He who would not "speak unadvis
edly" must pray much when in com
paDy.
2. There Is no ground safe to hpe
on but praying ground.
3. There is no ground safe to die
on but praying ground.
4. If we would, as Christians, live
careful lives, we must live prayerfuI
lives.
5. The Christian in this world needs
humility more than joy.
6. Never step or look outside Of
love.
Z. "The righteous shall be in ever.
lasting remembrance" "They, being
dead, yetspeak." They have blessed
and powerful influence for good. on
all who keep them reverently i'll re.
membrance. We should be thankful
that the Christians continue to do
good as long as they are held in re.
membrance.
8. Stop and ask yourself, when you
are about to take up book or a pa
per to read, Twill this book, will this
paper be likely to do meas much good
to read, for ten minutes or more, as the
time spent in prayer would?
The Christian religion is, not only
a religion of kind words and good
deeds, but also a religion of daily
prayer, and especially of@ly- secret
prayer, and much of ejacufatory prayer.
We should never forget that we are
not self-existent nor self life-support-
ing, and those facts should teach us
humility, and a profound reverence
and great thankfulness to God as our
Creator and our continual Preserver.
1t is the great duty of our lives to
rejoice, to exercise ourselves always, to
have a conscience void Of offence both
toward God and toward man.
How blessed it is to live always in
patience, meekness, gentlencss, thank.
fulness, and in love running through
all.
