A late number of the Charlotte Democrat has the follow ing communication in it : The sad and untimely death of this excellent gentleman and eminent divine at Greeusboro, N. C, on the 17th iust., was an event so singular in its surround ings, and closed a career so marked in its course, as to call for more than an ordinary notice. This is due alike to Ins memory and to a quiet public sen timent, which is mourning "as for a brother." Mr. Barringer was the third son of Gen. Barringer of Carbarrus county, lie received a good education and then entered upon the business of a merchant in Concord. In this he was highly successful, and no young man of his -day. had before him brighter prospects of &l that wealth, culture and high social position could give. lie was sess , all that heart could desire. But in the midst ol all this. in the very Spring time of life, he gave up all, dedicated himself to God, and entered the Methodist minis try. This was thirty years ago, when I ihe Methodist Church of this section was not the strong and popular power it has since become. His course could not fail to excite surprise and comment. But the shining convert pressed nobly forward. He overcame every obstacle and finally entered upon his duties us 'circuit rider." lie gave his time, his talents, his means, his hopes, present and future, all to Christ. The writer of this knew him well in all the, relations I i i : ' : .-i."i .r "i pnvaie, ministerial ana uusi: ncss and he does rot hesitate to say that lie never knew ay one who sur- rendeied himself more sincerely and entirely to me cause ne espouseei. in a very few years he was made Presi ding Elder. But it was mauitest that Ai.r. B. had no ambition except to do his duty. In this position he soon ac quiied influence and power and could probably in due time have secured the highest honors ot his Church.' But he shrank from all temptations of this kind, and continued to devote himselt solely to the work committed to his care. lu ISol Mr. B. married Miss Alston, of Chatham county. But this change made no difference in the labors and sacrifices of this devoted servant of Christ. His noble w:!e entered into his work 'with all her sou!., and to the close ot the late war she coutinued to cheer and sustain him. About this time her health failed and she finally sank under the wasting of disease, leaving in the care and keeping ot her husband six young children. litre was a new trial ior our christuin hero. Property, coun try, schools, al gone. What was he to ( I Nobly did he meet his responsi bilities. Instead of idle repinings anil sinful complaints, he deliberately set himself to work to conform bis Hie and that ol his household to the new require ments. He lived economically ; he taught his children industry and thrift; he arranged so that thev could instruct ench other, and for more than five years he was practically his own teacher and housekeeper. During these trying years he never once slackened his zeal in the cause of hi Saviour. JOu the contrary, his heart we it out stronger than ever. He saw at a gl.ince the dangers growing out ol the demoralization of war, anel he re solved to meet them maufulty and pa triotically. First of all, he; saw the whole land steeped in ignorance and the entire educational system going to ruin. In this emergency he united with others of his' church and countrymen in the almost desperate effort of re build ing the Greensboro Female Methoilist College, lately destroyed. The effort Wiis successful. He hiiiiself had the main charge of-the work of construes tion, and lie was on one of his : regular turns ot inspection, on the 11th inst.. when lie accidentlv tell and received the fatal lriunes ending his valuable ana uselul lite. Ah I that more ol us had such faith, such courage, and such zeal in the cause nf our country and of our God ! The death of our friend was inexpres sibly touching and sad From the mo ment of his tall to that ot his tlissolu- tion he was unconscious, except an in terval of a tew hours, when he calmly reviewed his faith in Christ, and ex pressed to - his sorrowtHg J'amily and iiiends his desire to live for his and their sake. But he added, "if it be the will of Providence that I go now, I submit, it is all well with me." Davknport Female College, Located in Caldwell County, N. C The authorized Agent, Ben. T.

Oak City Council. The "Sociable" given by the ladies of this Council, at the Temperance Hall, last Friday eve ning, was a complete success. Quite a large number ot persons were present, and a couple of hours very sociably and pleasantly spent. Cakes, ice cream and canelies were then furnished,of which all partook, anel another instance was ad ded to the arguments of temperance tidvocates. that men and women may be merry "without the aid of wine." Late in the evening. Rev. L. Branson, Presi dent of the Council, intrcduced to the audience Rev. Brantley York, D. D., Professor of Logic in Rutherford Col lege, who entertained the crowd for the space of five minutes with some admi rable and well timeel remarks. The audience soon thereafter dis persed to their homes, all seemingly well pleased with the "sociable." in about two weeks the ladies propose to repeat their entertainment, adding new features of interest. Among other things they propose to have a ring-cake con taining a valuable ring, to be cut tor by all who buy a ticket to the entertain ment. 1 hese sociables are intended to make money to fix up the Hall for the meetii g ot the Supreme Council to be held in this city iu June next Tna Mektixq To Night.
