the 18th inst. His friends were ON the

they did on Saturday last. -.
We have but little local news this
week for our distant friends, who doubt
less look to this column for news from
the sold folks at home" We would
tell them, however, the weather has
been cold, with much coveted showers
butit has now cleared of most besuti-
fally--and yet it rains. -

the election for Ordinary, aice j. B.

The Charleston Courier complains Of
outrages near that place BY our own
troops on private property. Among
many other instances a very fine piano
is mentioned as having been cut to
pieces, for the purpose Of procuring the
wire cords for pipe cleaners and this
done in the presence offeld officers. ~
Those who have good Fruit should
not neglect to dry it; in our neighbor-
hood the Peach is almost failure,
shriyeling and dropping off with the
worms that -infest them. Dried fruit
is much needed in the hospitals all the
time, where it will be gratefully yreceiv.

Among the latest Yankee tricks the
"bIockade sales" take precedence -
Yankee goods are palmed off at fabu'

Martial law has been suspended il

to have been duly celebrated by "many
citizens" with 9bricks in their hats.
The Confederate Congress has beer
cutting and drying variety of sub
jeets last week, but nothing has beer
done, so far, worthy of record. Th'
Conscription will doubtless be extended
Ten regiments of Reserves have beer

wsiith;sa sermon by Rev. ". W. Ratch-
ford. The Convention was organized
by the, election Of Rev. ". " Car
Others, Moderator, and Capt, w. ]. .
Bowen, CLERK. The. Convention was
an unusually small one-four Of the
churches not being represented at all,
and several others not fully represented.
During the session q Committee ives ap-
pointed to inquire Of the churches not
represented why they had failed I tosend
delegates, and to urge upon them the
discharge Of theiS. duty in this respect
Eonf future occasions. !! : +
On this occasion, assin all parts o.
eur country, the sad effects Of theacruel
war which has been, forced upon US BY
"a fanaticaland barbarous foe, were pain
fully manifest, in the fewness of our
numbers, the sma1lness Of the congre:
cations, compared with similar ocea-
.sions, heretofore, and in the garments
,ofmourning and. faces Of sorrow so visi,
bic IN The assemblies. But notwitsh. sEl
standing these things,the session Of the
Convention was q remarkably harmo'
.nious and pleasant one. There was but
little business transacted besides the
routine, but there Vas mani, !,
fest. throughout the meetings asspEirFit it. Of
'brotherly Kindness and christian tender,
ness most lovely to behold. and most
precious to enjoy: The members Of
the Convention will not soon forget the
pleasant meeting at Salem 5; and, we
think, the,good friendssand brethrensoi
the congregation will remember with
pleasure the season Of true christian IN. IN.
,tercourse, and of divine blessing enjoy
