Large audiences attended tBa Pre y- terlan church Sunday to hear two very interesting addresses by Rev L C Ws, a Presbyterian Missionary to Central Af iloa. Mr Vaas la a former resident of New Hern, his father, the lat j Rev Or L C Vass having been pastor of the church here about fifteen yeara sg . Rev Mr Vass was a student at the school In New Born, of Davidaon Col lege and of the theological aamtnary of Columbia, S C. He has been in the mis sionary field about five years aad ex pects to return there soon The subject of the morning discourse wis the Governmental Status of the Congo free States and the Story of the Lapaey. In the first of his address he explain ed how King Leopold, of Belgium had gained control of that country and had practically prevented all other natlona from making entries or establishing any kind of commercial re'ations there with out paying tribute to the Belgian gov ernment. His rule Is absolute and the influence he exerts is not of the kind that makes the natives friendly to his interests. The attitude of the govern ment Increases the difficulties with which the missionaries bare to contend. Excesses are permitted which tend to excite the savage and brutal nature of the natives, but the portions that have been brought under the influence ot the missionaries have become acquainted to some extent with the teaching of the mlsiionsries and have become very much Interested in the woik introduced by tiem. Wars aie almost constantly in prog ress If not between the tribes they are fighting the governments who claim control. Cannibalism and all Eorts of savage atrocities are practiced all the time. The climate is another feature which hinders the work of the missionary. The speaker said that science had not yet af forded anything that would make that climate healthy. Strangers in tne re gion arc obliged to take extraordinary precautions or they will be afflicted with serious illness. The food thero Is too unwholesome. Missionaries and teachers have to rely on Importation of food products. The Story of the Lapsley was that of the boat, the history of which many of our citizens are familiar. He told how the boat was made and under what diffi culties it was constructed and what hardships were met whhe under naviga tion. He also told of the last trip it took when it was wrecked and 60 natives went to the bottom cf the river. Mr Vass himself narrowly s aped drowning at that time. The steamer Lapsley will soon be re placed by a larger and better boat , one which will meet the conditions cf navi gation on the Congo. The sum of $85, 000 has been secured and the committee will advertlso for comrjeta for making the boat The evening dlscoisi was on the Progress and Pi0ptcs of Mia-i marj Effort Among tne Uncivilized Trice ot Central Africa.

They have made spleudid pro. ive In learning and the evtdonces of their work unx'er the supervision of the missionaries. The work of the spread of tha gospel is pro gressing encoursglngly, and the misslrn arles have congregations of worshippers numbering 1,000 to 1,200 people. Confederate Dead in Maryland Mr B F Dlakins of Vanceboro has just returned from a visit at Point Lookout, Md, a place once famous In war history. The old prison, Mr Dlnklas says, la now a farm, nothing to mark Its site. The confederate dead which were buried there were removed at the expense of the State of Maryland, and a single saon ument erected over them. This monu ment was erected in 1876, and begins to look shabby and unoa'red for. The fol lowing are numbers from their respec tive States whose bones now lie togeth er beneath the monument, their deaths occurring between March 1, 1864 and Tune 30, 1865.
