BIsHsP SouLE.-This venerable man Of
God, resides near Nashville, where he has
quiet, rural home. He was so years Of age,
the tirst dAy Of this month. He visits Nash
vile once a week, and occasionally breaches
a sermon. He has been a Methodist Travel
ling Preacher for more than 90 years. We
heard him first in Abingdon, Va, in October,
1875, say 80 years ago. lie was a giant in
the pulpit, aud Lord Wellington was never
more 'dignifed or Military looking man. II
ia said that both bis mind and heart, are still
undimned by the frosts and sunshine of four
score years.
