The Churches of Niewberry.
Last Sunday being the first bright
9 and beautiful Sabbath of the opening
f spring, the churches were well at
tended. The work upon the interior of
the Baptist church building having
i been completed the sanctuary was
opened by the pastor, Rev. Mr. Scott,
who preached an appropriate sermon
in the morning. Bisnop Duncan occu
pied the Methodist pulpit, while the
3 uther chuehes weresupplied by their
r respective pastors with the exception
r of the Episcopal where services were
conducted by the lay-reader.
in the afternoon Rev. Mr. Scott de
livered a thrilling discourse on temper
ance before the Young Men's Christian
Association at their rooms, and Messrs.
Seegers and Siigh, divinity students,
spoke with eloquent earnestness on
mission work before the Woman's
Home and Foreign Missionary Society,
at the Lutheran church.
At night in the Baptist church
t Bishop Duncan, assisted by Rev. Mr.
, McCliutock, who made the second
prayer, conducted the union services.
The Bishop read the appropriate lesson
t of the laborers-the discourse being
based upon the petition of the mother
of James and John, who sought that
3 her sons be allowed to sit, one upon the
3 right and the other on the left of the
- Master in Bio Kingdom.
The distinguished speaker began by
saying that we are indebted for this
fruitful incident to the love of an ambi
- tious mother, but it was not the time to
. criticize or analyze her motives, and,
in passing, paid a glbwing tribute to a
mother's love, which is limited almost
only by the bounds of space-praying
for the grandest possibilities and hoping
for the greater measures of success for
her children. And this mother stopped
short only of the throne itself. Yet,
were her motives the sinister desire of
an ambitious heart for temporal power,
then with her, he could have no
possible sympathy.
We cannot come, said Bishop Dun
can, within the range of divine purity
and truth without feeling their refin
ing, elevating and exalting influences.
and this woman and her two sons were
I the companions of the sinless Saviour
their compassionate Lord. Yet she
knew not what she asked. We think
r weknow the truth yet often fall very
- far short of its sublime realization. The
modest reply of the Saviour to the self
suflicient two and his gentle rebuke of
the indignant ten, revealed to them
that His kingdom was governed by a
code which recognized no violent as
sumption of authority and exercise of
dominion, but was pervaded by the
r ennobling principles of intellectual
hum'ity and love. He said that the
work before Him was mediatorial and
not his the power now to give the
honored place, "it shaH be given to
e them for whom it is prepared of my
Father."
The gates of the Kingdoms are open
always to those who, with a self-sacri
ficing spirit are-ready to enter; and pre
s pared places are in waiting for those
t who are ready to receive them. They
have but to take the cup and "stand in
,the valley of decision;" they have but
to be baptized with the bfptism of the
spirit that they may foliow the rugged
path of self-denial, self-control and self
abnegation, free from the restraint of
self-assertion, self-consciousness, false
pride, ostentation and display. It may
be that the path is one of sorrow and
adversity, patiently borne with quiver
ing nerve and bleeding heart; a
fragrant service in quiet ways that is
requited by the cold indifference of
self interest; .contumaciouq contempt
and detraction because you seek to
t serve by "coveting the best gifts." The
gifted speaker truly said that ealami
ties and afflictions are not necessarily
judgments-they are more often the
crucial test of character, the purifying
fires that chasten and spiritualize. Bear
your burdens, however lowly, alike
without murmuring or boasting, and
you shall be gathered as the jewels in
the Master's crown.
These and many other pertinent
thoughts were suggested and, .among
others, -the very~ negation of marriage
and unethical schemes so often seen in
social life. He is rejoiced to know that
the day is passing when real merit
shall be obscured by charlatanry.
As Bishop Duncan spoke of the iron
nerved Vanderbilt, whose patient en
durance laid the broad foundation for
his fortune; of the lion-hearted Lee, so
heroic in his humility, and England's
great premier Gladstone, so free of
vanity and self-consciousness in his
condescension, the mind reverted to the
line of noble men who have made
Paul's immortal antithesis the base
upon which they built their life-work.
And more particularly those of whom
he is a worthy successor-martyrs, min
isters and confessors. Ordained, an
nointed and commissioned by the au
thority of the Church triumphant
men whose intellection and piety were
all the more beautiful by the light of
their love in the service~of humanity.
Lofty in- the illustrious manifestation
of their gifts, yet lowly in the grace of
simplicity, and mercy and magnanim
ity towards all men.
For a solution of the Droblems that
perplex us, we seek light in classic
literature and quote from the prophets
"that prophesy falsely.'" "We appeal
to Cesar" and wi4t not come to great
Cosar's greater King with whom are
the unities and the eternities of truth,
justice and equity. Let us seek the solu
tion of our ethical troubles in the sim
ple code pronounced from the highest
court of the universe and given t' us on
the Mount of Olives for the restoration
of primal principles.
T1he seating capacity of the building
wias fully tested, all the available space
being comfortably occcupied; andl it
must have been an inspirationto the
Bishop to have before him so large an
array of sweet and bright young faces,
for it was the young ladies and gen
tlemen more particularly that he ad
dressed on the importance of a .higber,
purer, better life--a life whose refined
and exquisite pleasure is found in pa
tient serving. During the hour and a
half of its delivery the audience was
fprofoundly attentive. A vase of ra
diant flowers lent their pure and beau
Stiful presence to the occasion. A full
Schoir sang to the sweet strains of
the organ under the touch of Miss Hol
brook. Rev. Mr. Cauthen invoked the
-favor of heaven at the close of the
service and the Bishop pronounced the
sbenediction.
This is but little more than an al
lusion to a grand discourse-grand in
a the simplicity of its construction, spirit
and utterance. The slyle of the speaker
is attractive for the ease and earnest
ness of delivery. His positions are well
fortified, clearly expressed and happily
illustrated. Synopses of sermons are
'often unsatisfying, and allusions to
a them not infrequently obscure and
i meaningless; notliing short of a verba
tim report can preserve the unity and1
harmony of an argument. Appre
ciating these facts, we trust that this
t meagre mention may not off'end either
the good speaker or his attentive
hearers. - G.

CHARLESTON LATEST HORROR.
The Brutal Killing of Wm. Munzenmaler
by John Weir in a Drunken Row.
[Special to The Register.]
CHARLESTON, March 11.-The slay
ing of William Munzemaier in a drunk
en brawl on Sunday morning has
caused much excitement. The victim's
head was'almost severed from his body,
the deadly razor being the instrument
of execution. John Weir, a factory
hand, was the slayer, although the
killing was done in a street row. As
in all cities where there are large cotton
mills there is an intense feeling of
hatred between what are known as the
factory .boys, those employed in the
mills, and the city boys those in the
same class of life, who are not employed
in the mills. Why this should be so it
is hard to say, but it is the fact. It
exists in Augusta, Columbia, Charles
ton and all other large cities where
there are cotton mills. Strange to say,
too, it only exists among the employees
of oetton mills.
It was this feeling that led to this
dreadful homicide. A factory boy
picked a quarrel with a city boy. Their
friends took it up and a free fight en
sued, during which Munzemaier was
slain by Weir.
There is one feature of the affray that
none of the local newspapers seem to
have brought out, owing probably to
sympathy for the slain man. Those who
know him best give him the reputation
of having been a terror to all who knew
him. Be was a giant in strength and
excessively quarrelsome in his cups.
Wier, the slayer, accounts for his pos
session of the razor by saying that he is
a barber by trade and usually carried
his implements with him, calling at
the boarding houses near the factory
and shaving his customers at home.
This is proven to be true.
The entire crowd, some seven or
eight in number, are known to be
roughs of the worst kind, and filled, as
they were, with what is known as "up
town whiskey," it is only surprising
that only one life was lost. Four or five
of the crowd including Wier were badly
bruised and slashed up. The inquest
will not be held until to-morrow, and
according to the evidence already ad
duced, it is doubtful if a convictions
can be had against. any of the party.
The victim seems to have been the
most violent and boisterous of the
crowd.

from Eusada confirms all the previous
reports as to the extraordinary richness
of the gold fields. About 1,000 .people
are encamped at Tiaguna waiting for
customs clearances. The population
of the camp is put a 3,000 with 2,000 en
route. The Arizona miners are going
In by way of Yuma. The Mexican
G~overnment is forwarding more troops
for the peninsula.
Prof. Anthony, the metallurgist, who
has spent two years on the peninsula,
showed yesterday fifteen nuggets aver
iging as large as beans, worn quite
imooth, showing the ledge to be distant
~rom the placer. He says the mineral
>elt is two hundred miles long, the
ower end being largely copper at;d the
ipper end lead. He says that any man
wiling to work can make $.5 to $20 in
:he placers, but too many do not want
:o work. Most of the Americans, think
ng that the water will . give out, are
nerely watching the Mexicans in the
placer diggings and then trying to lo
~ate the ledges.
Prof. Anthony does not believe that
.he real ledge of the district has been
ocated, and says that there are placer
nines equally ricn one hundred miles
outh of the Santa Clara Valley and
ich mines of permanent value are
ure to be developed.
Teams are paid .$50 a day to haul
>rovisions and if they influx continues
famine will follow, Flour sold yester
lay at $50 a sack and canned goods are
vorth more then their weight in gold.
L. company of Mexican rural guards
arrived yesterday and the commandant.
>ut the camp under martial law and
isarmed every one, the arms to be
eturned when they leave the camp.

A Great Need at Union.
[Union Times, 8th.1
The attendance at the services now
held in the Methodist church by Rev.
Thos. H. L.eitch, the gIaat evangelist,
have been very large, and we think
there is a steadily growing interest
manifested by the pope generally, to
listen the solemn words of truih, as
they come with convincing power from
the eloquent .preacher's- lips. Most
sincerely do we hope that his labors in
Union may arouse a more earnest and
widespread religious sentiment among
our people than has been manifested
heretofore. We know no community
where the grace of God is more needed
or would make a more radical change
than in this town of Union.

George Augustus Sala, the well
known English writer, on his last Aus
tralian trip wrote as follows to The
London Daily Telegraph:
"I especially have a pleasant remem
brance of Lbe ship's doctor-a very
experienced maritime medico indeed,
who tended me most kindly during a
horrible spell of bronchitis and spas
modic asthma, provoked by the sea fog
which had swooped down on us just
after we left San Francisco. But the
doctor's prescriptions and the increas
ing warmth of the temperature as we
neared the Tropics, and in particular, a
couple of Allcoek's Porous Plasters
clapped on-one on the chest and ano
ther between the shoulder blades-soon
set me right.
A Scrap of Paper Saves Her Life .
