We frequently find brethren who say
they would gladly have renewed if the
preacher had called their attention to it.
We hope oar subscribers will all look at
■he date of expiration which they will
always fial oa She margin with their
ts-imi ?, dal i a case the preachers fail to
calf, remit a week or two in advance of
the date at which the paper will expire.
Do, dear brethren!
(Had to Get You Back.
A good broth ;r writes: ‘ It is with re
gret and shame that I at this distant day
after havidg last h id the pleasure of read
ing the Advocate, come again and ask to
be a subscriber. I hive been considera
bly under the weather for the list year or
so as regirds health and money. Although
lam not much better yet, I feel that I
have lost much by not bsving the Advo
cate. I also ft ei that lam doing myself
and family an in] i dice to do without it any
longer. I enclose you a Post-office order
for another year’s subscription.”
Ail righ*; we take you biek into fall
connection.
A Duty Understood.
It always seemed strange to us that a
Chridian man or woman who plainly un
derstood a duty did not perform it.
Yet such is often the case; our good
brother who writes ns from good old
South Carolina is not oue of this class.
He says:
“It is the duly of every Methodist in
tli ■ Gonfereaca, if he is able, to pay $2 50
yearly for the support of the Advocate,
e .<>n though he shoal J not wish the paper.
I feel bound to do so, as a matter of duty,
aad besides I am -viiliug to do so as a mat
ter of trad.-. We should support and
pitrotiz ) our Church institutions, if we
wish them to prosoer, and he who does
not do “o, is lacking in devotion to the in
terests of his Church."
This good brother had been absent
from home, and during that absence he
did not read the paper. Oa his return he
promptly remitted ti c subscription and
insisted on paying for the whole time,
although he hi l not seen the paper for
three months.
We wi ,h we had thousands of such true
men iu the Church, than truly would
•'Zion prosper iu all her borders.
Citiilii not lo Without it.
Persons who have for long years been
accustomed to read the Attv-cUe , find it
hard to do without it. We really feel
sorry when under onr rule wc are obliged
to cut off such subscribers; but we cannot
do otherwise, and are always glad to wel
come them beck again A good sister
from southwestern Georgia writes as fol
lows:
•‘I would not intrude upon the time
and attention of the busy woikers who
attend to the Advocate if I were not im
pelled by a strong sense of obligation to
s iv, tl a ik yon, for so much p'easure, and
I think real benefit, too. Weather the
paper is really better, or my heart more
ready to appropriate and onj ty the good
things it supplies, I oin’t say, but I know
that it siems better than ever before.
Possibly the increased interest, is attribu
table to the fact that it came not to
gladden our eyes and hearts for one whole
year. Misfortunes were mtny. and not
the least among them, was the losi of the
Advocate. We thank you for sending it
without the money, but I now enclose jon
Post-office order for So, which pays all
arrears and renews our subscription. If
not let ns know, ri j img as our tife (lay
may last w hope to have it brightened
by the regular visits of onr dear old friend.
I might just as easy have giveu this to
nnr pastor, but I did not want to do it
without au expression of appreciation.”
Thank you. dear sister, for your words
of cheer. They are grateful to us, aid
encourage us to persevere.
Attention !
The Advocate must have more subscribers. It is
instriosieally worth all that is asked for it, and
ought not to require any other incentive to take
it, other than the obligation that every Methodist
in the land ought to feel it his duty to have a
yood religious paper in his family . But as ill
these days premiums, consisting of chromos,
etc., are offered, we feel like offering to our
subscribers new and old the following lib ral
offer:
Smith’s Large ltihle Dictionary and the
Life and Epistles ot St. l*aul.
By a specirl arrangement with the publishers,
wc are enabled to make the following advan
tageous offers to ail our subscribers:
For $1 50, and 50 cents extra to pay for pos
tage, we will forward to any address, the South
ern Christian Advocate for one year, and a copy
of Smith’s Large Bible Dictionary, or Conybeare
and Howson’s Life and Epistles of St. Paul,
each being a large octavo volume of more than
1,000 pages, handsomely and profusely illustra
ted with maps aud engravings.
For $7.00 we will furnish the Advocate for one
year, and both the above valuable wor ks, pos
tage free.
To Ministers aud Theological Students, we
will furnish the Advocate one year, and either of
these works for $4.50, free of postage; or both
works and the Advocate free of postage for $0 50.
The retail price of either of these books alone
is #4.50; so tha', by the offer above made our
subscribers can secure b >lk the Advocate and
cither book at the price of the hook alone; and
by taking both books at $7.00, they can do bet
ter still. Inasmuch as the retail price of both
books with postage amounts to SIO.OO, and the
Advocate $2 50 more, making a total of $12.50
the value of which as above they can secure for
$7.00.
Every minister, evtry Sunday school super
intendent and teacher, every student of the
Bible,and every Christian family, ought to have
a copy of the Bible Dictionary; and the Life and
Epistles of st. Paul should be in the library of
every clergyman and intelligent layman in the
country.
We shall be happy to furnish our friends with
both these works, as above announced, and we
trust that many will secure them ou the liberal
terms which we offer.
To all our present subscribers who have paid
for the pap-r one year or more in advance, we
will send either of the above books for $2.50
This puts all on an equality.

Cti iRLESTON, November s.—The reception to
Governor Chamberlain, 'by' the Chamber of
Commerce to-day, was the occasion of the
largest gathering of that body that has been
known for years. In reply to the congratula
tions upon the wholesome ettect of the Reforms
of his administration upon thecommercial pros
perity of Charleston and the material interest
of the State, the Governor renewed his pledge
to give a good and honest government to South
Carolina, and expressed deep gratification at
receiving the co-operation of the business men
of Charleston.
Senator Gordon, of Georgia, who is visiting
this city, was interviewed by a Xcwx and Courier
reporter to-day, upon the result of Tuesday’s
elections. He attributes the Democratic re
verses to the fact that the currency issue di
verted public attention from the corruption and
maladministration of the Republican party,
especially in its Southern policy. He said the
Republicans would be glad to light the battle Of
IS7O upon new issues, and it does not matter
with them much what these new issues are;
whether they he currency, the acquisition of
Cuba, or a war with the people—anything
rather than their own record. The National
Democracy will make a serious mistake if they
permit any of these new issues to come into the
Presidential canvass next Year. Ho is satisfied,
however, that after the lesson of Tuesday the
National Democracy will not make the currency
question either paramount or prominent, and
that both wings of th# Democratic party and
Liberal Republicans will unite in 1876 in favor
of the constitution, and an honest and econom
ical government.
Welborn, Fla., November 5.—A terrible
tornado passed over this little village to-day, at
2 o’clock, tearing down houses, trees, fences,
and every thing before it. It came from a
southwesterly direction, and only lasted about
two minutes, as near as can he estimated at
pres* nt. Two or three miles from here it was
about the top of the trees, but about a half a
mile from here it came to the ground, and swept
through the middle of this place. It was about
one hundred and fifty yards wide. Fourteen
houses were blown to pieces.
It blew the scbool-house flat on the ground.
The teacher, A. W. Mizell, and twenty-five or
thirty scholars were in the house, and all were
hurt more or lees, hut none killed, though one'
or two of the scholars were fatally injured, it is
supposed. The dwelling house of J. R. Ses
sions was completely wrecked and torn to
pieces, the falling timber killing his little baby
and hurting his wife very badlv. It is thought
she will recover. Two or three of hi 9 children
were hurt, but not seriously. The cyclone tore
up grass by the roots, and made holes in the
ground as big as -a man’s head, and larger in
some places. It tore up pine trees by the loots,
and carried them some distance, and shingles
from the roofs of the houses were carried two
miles away ; a portion of the roofs of some of
the houses were blown a quarter of a mile away.
After the cyclone tad left the town it seemed
to rise to the tops of the trees again. The total
loss of houses and fencing will reach about five
thousand dollars.
New York, November s.—lt is announced
that the Spanish Government has forwarded to
their agents in this city orders to buy up and
ship at once to Cuba provisions and ammuni
tion to the amount of five thousand dollars.
The money for this purpose was contributed
iu Havanna on the 20m ult., upon the receipt of
telegrams from Madrid to the effect that Ameri
can intervention was feared, and that all that
could be done to deter it was advisable.
Gainesville, Fla., November 6.—A terrific
cyclone, accompanied with rain, thunder and
lightning, visited this town yesterday, demol
ishing some twelve or fourteen houses. Among
them were the large dining room and kitchen
attached to Oak Hall Hotel. Mr. W. Mathews.
Mr. Cesnas, Rev. Mr. Tomkies, Mr. E. Jonee,
and some thirteen or fourteen other persons
were slightly and seriously injured. One col
ored man was buried beneath the ruins of Oak
Hall.
Washington, November 6.—A hundred guns
were tiied by the Republicans this evening, in
liouur of their victories of last Tuesday. A
proctssion was formed and proceeded to the
Executive Mansion, where they serenaded the
President, who, from the front of th portico,
acknowledged tbs compliment as follows:
‘ Gentlemen, I atn very glad to meet you on
this occasion, aud to congratulate you on so
good a cause for rejoicing to the entire conntry,
over the elections of last Tuesday. While the
Republican majorities were not large, they were
sut&ci.nt to accomplish the purpose. The rag
baby has been entirely suppressed, and the peo
pie now know what kind of money they are to
have in the future, and I think we have an as
surance that the Republicans will control this
Government for at least four years longer.”
Washington, November B.—A private dis
patch received here this evening, announced
the total loss of the steamship Paeiflc, between
Portland, Oregon, aud San Francisco, by fouu
dering at sea last Thursday.
San Fkancisco, November 9.—Henry L.
Jelly, a Burvivor from the steamship Pacific,

night to 10 o’clock Saturday morning. His
companion died from exposure and was cut
loose by Jelly. Several boats were launched
but all foundered. The passengers, some sev
enty-flve iu number, were from Puget’s Sound
and Victoria. Jelly is too low to give further
particulars.

coast. One of the Galveston pilots who had
gone out on her arrival, was also on board.
The steamer burned to the water’s edge.

dered steamship Pacific on a raft thirty miles
Inside of the straits f Tuca. He says Capt.

change in the market.

After leaving the royal barge at the dock
yard, the municipality of Bombay presented
him with an appropriate address of welcome.
The Prince replied briefly, after which he and
his suite were escorted to the Government
House. Over two hundred thousand specta
tors lined the route. The reception was of the
most enthusiastic description and was partici
pated in alike by Europeans and natives. The
city wrs splendidly decorated throughout, no
fewer than;eight triumphal arches having been
erected on the line of march.
Singapore, Novomber B.—lntelligence has
been received here from Penang announcing
that the Malayans are besieging the British
residences at Perah. All the native rajahs are
suspected of complicity in the murder of the
late President, Mr. Birch. Itjs rhported that
the Malayans are preparing for resistance. The
Sultan Ismael is collecting a considerable force
for the purpose of attempting to expel the
British from the country.
Penang, Prince of Wales Island, Novem
ber 9—The mutiliated remains of Mr. Birch,
late English resident at Perak, have been re
covered after a sharp engagement with the
Malayans.

from Penang to the Times says that all this side
of the Malay Peninsula is greatly excited. A
general outbreak is feared. Hong Kong has

war, two gunboats, and about 409 troops are
now at Perak.
. To-day is Lord Mayor’s day, and business and
street traffic was for a long while to a great ex
tent suspended. The weather, which this morn •
ing was cold and foggy, cleared up in the after-
noon, and became pleasant and favorable for
the great event of the day—the installation of
Alderman W. J. R. Cotton as Lord Mayor of
Londoa for the coming year.
London, November 10.—At the Lord Mayor’s
dinner the Cabinet were present. Mr. Disrseli,
answering a toast in honor of Her Majesty’s
Government, and the compliments tendered on
the settlement of the China difficulties, said,
“I wish X could say that foreign afiairs nearer
home were as satisfactory as our relations with
China. A partial revolt in Turkey has produced
a state of things such as there often becomes
critical. The forbearance of the great powers
immediately interested, produced aneflectsuch
as some months ago gave us the right to believe
the disturbance would cease immediately.
Since then a financial catastrophe has revived
the struggle, and given anew aspect to all the
circumstances. It is impossible to deny that
the circumstances are critical, tut I still have
great confidence in the forbearance of the pow
ers. I have not merely trust, but conviction,
that means will be found to bring about a satis
factory result, consistent with the maintenance
of the peace of Europe. I will not contemplate
any other result. The interests of the imperial
powers in reference to this question, are more
direct, but not more considerable than those of
Great Britain. The men who have charge of
our affairs are deeply conscious of the magni
tude of our interests, which they are resolved
to guard and maintain.”
London, November 11.—The weather in
England and France the past week has been
very stormy. Heavy and almost incessant
rains hava fallen, and many parts of both coun
tries are flooded. Vast tracts are threatened
by rising riveis.

one-fifth of the amouut, and there will be jiue,
January 1, 1876. another fifth, and interest at 7 per
cent, on tho sum remaining unpaid January 1.
1875. Thus you cun readily calculate tho amount
you owe January 1, 1876. If you can conveniently
pay this amount to your preacher n charge (tak
ing his receipt), so that he can bring it to me at
Conierenec, you will greatly oblige me and benefit
the College. It you cannot, then please send it to
me, when due, by P. 0. Money, on Orangeburg or
Charleston, or by some other safe conveyance On
bonds given since January, 1875, one-fifth will be
due January 1, 1876. and should be forwarded as

South Georgia Conference;
An Appeal to the Preachers and Mem
bers of the South Georgia Conference.
Six weeks from to-day, the Conference is to hold
its session for 1875. and the orphans in the Home
of the Conference need winter supplies. # e nave
in the Home, 25 children Yes, 25. It is useless
for me to say that it requires a good deal ot food
and clothing for that number of dependent child
ren. They have been, in the mam, well, all
throueh the present year. The boys * r e work
ins:—working well. The girls are generally bright,
cheerful, and industrious. The whole machinery
has worked smoothly—even more so than we
feared. , . r . ,
Dear friends and brethren, male and female, do
send in your subscriptions and gitts. by the
preachers and brethren. Do not neglect nor tor
get, lest the cry and wail of the orphan come up
against you in the day to come. I ask the preach
ers to please mention this to all the congregations
and receive the money. We must have a thousand
dollars this winter, at the least*—ought to have
two. Yours in love and fear of God,

We Must All Die.
This is a sad fact, and it behooves us to be pre
pared to die right when the time comes, rew of
us expect it until old age overtakes and admon
ishes us with grey hairs that the time has arrived
when we must dye. Then we look around to find
out the best way. We will tell you. Use no other
dye thau Dr. Tutt’s and you will dye right. Your
grey hairs will disappear like magic, and in
thin places you will have glossy, black whiskers,
moustache and hair—a perfect imitation of nature;
go natural thatit cannot be detected, and your dye
ing expenses will be but one dollar, ______
[From the New York Tribune.]
A Waut Supplied.
The .American mind is active. It has given us
books ot fi tion tor the sentimentalist, learned
books for the scholar and professional student, but
few hooka for the people. A book for the people
must relate to a subject of universal interest. Such
a sub eo* is the physical man. and such a book
“Thk People's Common Sense Medical Ad
viser,” a copv of which has been recently laid on
our table. The high professional attainments
of its author—Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo. N. I.—
and the advantages derived by him from au ex
tensive practice, would alone insure for his work a
cordial reception. But these are not the unfits
for whi 'h it claims our attention. The Author is
u man of the people. Hs sympathizes with them
in all their afflictions, efforts, and attainments.
He perceives their want—a knowledge of them
eelven—and believing that all trutn should be
made as universal as God’s own sunlight, from his
fund of learning and experience he has produced
a work in which he gives them the benefits
of his labors. In it he considers man in every
phase of his existence, from the moment he
emerges ” from a rayless atom, too diminutive for
the sight, until he gradually evolves to the ma
turity ot those Gonacioua Powera, the exercise of
wh ; eh furnishes subjective evidence of our immor
ality.” Proceeding upon the theory that every
fact of mind has a physical antecedent, he has
given an admirable treatise on Cerebral Physiol
ogy, and shown the bearings of the facts thus es
tablished upon individual and social welfare. The
Author believes with Spencer, that “as vigorous
health and its accompanying high spirits are
larger elements of happiness tnan any other things
whatever, the teaching how to maintain them is a
teaching that yields to no other whatever,” and
accordingly has introduced an extensive discussion
of the methods by which we may preserve the in
tegrity of the system, and ofiimes prevent the on
set of disease. Domestic Remedies—their pre
paration, uses and effects, form a prominent
feature of the work. The hygieuic treatment, or
nursing of the sick, is au important subject, and
receives attention commensurate with its impor
tance. NearU all diseases “to which flesh is heir”
are described, their symptoms and causes ex
plained. and proper domestic treatment suggested.
To reciprocate the many favors bestowed upon
him by a generous public, the author offers
his book at a price (*1.50) little exceeding the cost
of publication. Our readers can obtain this prac
tical aud valuable work bv addressing the author.

Dear Sir: In the rammer of 1864 I visited the
Buffalo Springs, a! I supposed, a confirmed dys
peptic ; I was weak, emaoiated, and daependent,
and in fact my constitution was shattered by my
disease. I used the water for a short time—l de
not now recollect with prseision how leng; in •
few days after I oommenoed the uie ef it Ihegan
to improve, and continued to do so until I was re
stored to perfect health. The core wae eomplet*.
From my own experience with the water, and
what I witnessed of its effect! upon otheri, I re
card it as equal, if not superior, to any of th.
mineral waters of Virginia, in all diseases ef th.
digestive organs. P. A. Flournoy. M. D.

DAN, RESIDENT PHYSICIAN FOR THR
SEASON OF 1874.
Buffalo Springs. Va.. August 8.1874
Peggy Anderson, a colored woman, of Oxford,
North Carolina, reached the Springs same tw.
months ago in a most distressed and apparently
hopeless condition, resulting from dy.psia com
plicated with uterine derangement. She was ex
tremely feeble, emaoiated, and suffering greatly
from nervous excitement. She informed me that
for several years she had been suhjeet to occasion
al attacks of great Tiol.noe, which oonfined her
for weeks to her bed. Upon her arrival at the
Springs, she could not eat meat or vegetable# ef
any description, and had not been able to do s.
for two years. Her only beverage was cold water,
and a draught of that often occasioned her great
pain. She now eats with impunity any ordinary
article of food, including deserts, and on several
occasions has eaten encumbers and similar ar
ticles, without feeling inconvenience from it. She
has greatly improved in strength, and gained not
not less, I oan safely say, than 30 pounds in flesh.
