Efforts are being made to raise funds to purchas-: a large number of the leading works to add to the City Library.

' TIvj i-aie of scats f"i the minstrel engagement will open at the Acad emy o:: Music this morning. There are several features connected with the t.tijsgement that are worthy of note. In the first place, the com pany is one ol llic tiuest in the country. In the second place, it is the only com pany that has ever visited Charles ton that has offered a matinee per formance, and in the third place it is one of the few companies that do not depend upon a one night per formance. The people of Charleston need not be told that the MclntvreC Heath combination is ' "first class," because it hasjbeen here before and has played to one of the largest aud iences that has even been seen in the Academy of Music. The matinee on Saturday will a fiord the oppor tunity to hundreds of ladies and children to see lor the first time in their lives a minstrel performance and will therefore be crowded It would be as well, therefore, to se cure seats in advance."'

A Very Sugoestive Ijetter. The letter we published in Sun day's issue of the Citizen from the agent of the Pennsylvania Railroad at Buffalo New York, to Mr. Jacobs, carries a most important suggestion for our people. Those who are quickest to catch th-s drift of pur pose of a people as to their move ments from on"e point or section to another, are the passenger agents of the great railroads. ) There can be no doubt but that thp present very severe winter is turning attention of people, from Main to the North western States, to tho milder cli mate of the South j and Western Carolina is particularly attractive to man3' thousands of fhse, and will Wecome attractive t many thous ands more as tne advantages of the section are made kniwn. The agent who wrote that letter.- discovers this desire for information of Ashevilie and Western Carolina, and kindly offers to place all such where it will do most ood if furnished. Other agents will do likewise, as the members ..f the Central Traflic As sociation recently assured Mr Gwyn. Our people should step up briskly and accept the ofier ol the agents to spread the gosple of peace, and brotherly love and a future life of happiness, contentment and pros perity through advertisements of Western Carolina among the good people of the frost-biighted North.

We advocate nothing but that which we be'ievo t b for the ood of socieiy and the eievaiicn of the people. One sugnestion in the remarks of Dr. II. is worthy of a thought, that relating to pecuniary interests. The Citien never says anything upon matters affecting the public, individually or collectively, Tor a eoiisidsiatien, nor does it ever re frain from saying things which occasion might i-quir. for a coi aideration. The Citizen never knowingly commends anylhins it believes to "be wrong, or r-uitiui. & again thank the oistin guished divine not only for his reference to the t. itises, but for his excellent ser mon on an import nt subject.

' Sunday morn. mr Dr. Bryan, the able pastor of the Presbyterian church of this i city delivered a very impressive and! forcible sermon upon the above subject, j Applying the text to i-ome of the social errors as well as evils of the da-. , 1 r. B. ! presented very strongly the ease witli which a seemingly innocent act could lead one across the line into tiie dunain of positive and hurtful wronc. The morning paper referred to by Dr. Bryan was the Daily Citizi;v. The text was : ' I will pay my vows unto tiie Lord now in the presence of' all His people, in tin; courts ol the Lord's house, in t!:e midst of the". O. Jtr:isi!i-m. " salin 1 10 : 17, is. The Christian ot to-day is, said Dr. Bryan, like this psalmist, under yows His acceptance of Christ devolved upon him the service of Christ, and hit- public confession befoie the church was his formal acknowledgment of his vows. These vows are self-assumed. No ex ternal authority imposes them and if ope choose he may refuse to vow and none will force him thereto. It is his to make or not to make the vow. But once ruad the vow must be kept. It is not his to k -en or not to keep it Liberty is at an end and thenceforth lie ceases to be hi3 own master, with this aa his lirst duty and the bih.-st claim upon him. Unlike the vows of old, the Christian's vow knows no release. It binds for life and pledges hiiu to an entire consecration of what lie has wealth, learning, reput ation, family; snd also of what he is thoughts, energies, fee! int!s,opport unities.
