Tluutksi
I take this method of returning thanks
to the members of my church and congrega
tion, for the excellent donation to myself and
family of presell Is, useful as well as ornamen
tal, on the evening of December 31st." Thoso
prescuts were doubly appreciated. The es
teemed donors, moved as I believe they were,
by affection for myself and family, selected
not only objects that wore charmingly orna-
mental, but highly useful. We shall ever
cherish those gifts, not simply as valuable
within themselves, but on account of the mo
tive which prompted the ir presentation.
To the members of my church who shared
in this donation, I return the warmest
gratitude of a pastor’s heart., and while
I wish for you and your littlo ones a eon
ttint stream of happiness, it shall also bo my
pleasure to labor, to the utmost of my ability,
for your spiritual growth. I am determined,
God being my helper, to be more faithful in
my ministrations. It rejoices my heart to re
alize that the beloved members of my flock
sympathize fully with mo in my ardent labors.
Trammeled as I am by school-room duties,
pastoral visitation—the sweetest work of my
life—is very much interfered with. But lam
so glad to know that you bear with me so pa
tiently. Let us pray constantly that the Great
Head of the Church may make us more effi
cient in Ilis service.
To the members of my congregation who
shared in the donation, I return unfeigned
thanks. May God bless you abundantly.
I know of but one thing that would add to
my joy, and that is, to welcome you into the
great chamber of my Master. To this end I
shall preach and pray. May this be the year
of your Spiritual recovery. I shall over re
member you, and even at a throne of grace.
If any pastor has reason to bo proud of bis
church and congregation—l >mthat man; uni
form kindness has been extend and me by both.
Brethren and friends, a few more (lays will
end our pilgrimage; let us so live, that when
we leave this vale of tears, we shall all bo
membeis of the congregation of the redeem
ed, where no krrting is known, and no fare
well tear is ever shed.
I WISH YOU ALL A HAPPY New YeAE.

The Baptist Festival.
On New Year's Eve llie First Baptist
Church in this place was crowded with the elite
of our city. Tho occasion was an elegant
Sunday School entertainment, and all present
seemed to enjoy the affair greatly.
The exercises opened with singing, followed
by a prayer by Eev. 11. Qr.igg—Rev. Dr. Sha
ver having teen called away to Augusta.
The tinging was charming, and the song by
the little children was particularly admired.
“Waiting aud Watching for Me” sung by two
young ladies, was highly appreciated. The
exercises were conducted by liev. J. M. Brit
tain, and the music was under the direction of
Mrs. F. M. Haygood. The fine orgau courte
ously loaned by Dr. J. A. Stewart added great
ly to this part of the entertainment.
The address by Rev. F. M. Haygood was] at
once pleasing, and instructing. Towards the
close of the exorcises the diatribe.! ion of presents
was made. 1 These embraced a great variety of
ornamental and useful articles, amounting to
about S2OO in value. l!ev. Mr. Brittain and
wife received a china toa-set, a sack of flour,
etc., etc] Rev. Dr. Shaver got a tine walking
cane, a box of cigars, etc. Rev. Mr. J! ajgood
received an umbrella and a fine hat. During
the evening Mr. Judson Haygcod’s little girls
recited in a charming way the “Crown of
Life,” and with their bouquet and golden let
ters made a beautiful coronation sccdg. Mrs.
Agnes Jones, the blind singer from Tennessee,
was present and tool;’part in the exercises. A
contribution was taken up for her benefit.
The entertainment closed with that stirring
song “Hold the Fort,” by the choir.
We learn that the Sunday Schotl passed a
resolution of thanks to Dr. Stewart for the use
of his organ.
On Monday night, December 27th,
the large and elegant residence of Mr. John
M. Allen, about ten miles south of_Covington,
was entirely destroyed by fire. The house
contained nine large rooms, besides a number
of closets, and originally cost about $5,000.
It was insured for $2,500. Tho house.was en
tirely destroyed, together with a large amount
of tho household goods. Mr. Allen is sure it
was the work of an incendiary. When the fire
was first discovered, ho ran to his trunk, in
which he had $1,960 in currency, and found
the trunk bad been opened, and the money
gone. Ho thinks he waß robbed, and hig
house fired to cover the robbery. His lO3S,
over and above the insurance, ]will probably
reach $2,000 or $3,500. — Covington Star.
The Methodist Christmas Tree.
On Christinas Eva a large and de
lighted crowd of Sunday school scholars, their
parents met at the Methodist
church to attend a Christmas Tree Festival.
At 7 o’clock the Superintendent, Col. J. C.
Barton balled the house to order, and announ
ced a programme consisting of Singing, Pray
er by Rev. J. L. Stewart; Kecitation of the
Parable of the Ten Virgins, by ten little girls;
Recitation of the Parable of the Sower, by
Master Gussie Guinn ; Recitation of the Para
ble of the Lost Sheep, by Master Onnie Rob
erts ; Recitation of the Prodigal Son, by Mas
ter Jno. Livingstone Travis; Distribution of
Prizes, by the Siflferintendent, assisted by W.
E. McCall,], A. M. Helms, Esq., 11. Y. McCord,
and P. F. Christian, and four pages.
The exercises were interspersed with music
appropriate to each parable.
The recitations were very much admired,
especially the rendition of the Ten Virgins and
the Prodigal Son.
The manner of delivei-y and the acting of
the youthful psrformera elicited universal
commendation.
The music v. as led by Mr. A. M. Helms,
and was truly an enjoyable treat to the lovers
of good singing. Everybody went away well
pleased with the entertainment.
We leam that on the following Sunday
prizes were presented by the Superintendent
to the scholurs who had memorized the largest
number of Scriptural verses during the year.
Several of the children had memorized in the
neighborhood of a thousand verses.

“It is of tba utmost importance that the
criminal laws of a . State should be in such
form as to be easily understood by the poople,
and certainly and intelligently enforced by the
courts. The Supreme Court Reports are prac
tically not within tlio reach of tho Justices
of the Peace. The importance to society and
to accused persons of intelligent action in
criminal cases on the part of Justices of the
