CHURCH DEDICATIoN.-Th new
and cOmmodious house of worship
erected within the last six months, by
the members and friends of the NJ.
f. Church, at Brandon, Buchanan
county, was dedicated to Almighty
God on Sabbath last, the Cd inst, by
Rev'ds. j. Bowman and ID. Shelter.
The services opened at nine in the
morning, with love feast, conduct
ed by j. Bowman. The occasion
was impressing and profitable, and
clearly indicated the triumphs of the
day. Between the hours Of ten and
eleven A. M, Rev. D. Shelter, of
Waterloo, delivered a sermon, which,
for depth of thought, etoquence of
diction, patbOs and power, is seldom
equaled. The house was densely
filled while scores and even hundreds
fingered without about the door and
windows. When the speaker closed
his discourse an appeal was made to
the congregation to free the house
from debt. Several hundred dollars
were subscribed, but the sum re-
quired was not quite made up
Hence the dedicatory services were
deferred until the hour of seven in
the evening. Long before the time
appointed, the house was crowded
almost to suffocation. Indeed the
interest of the occasion appeared to
increase rather than otherwise. The
sermon was preached by Rev. Bow
man. 1t Is sufficient to say that it
was one of his happiest efforts AT
tho close of the discourse the claims
of the church were again presented,
to which the attentive and apprecia.
tive audience willingly and nobly re-
sponded. Within very few mo-
ments the Indebtedness Of the church
edifiCe was not only met, but also a
margin of tive hundred and fifty
dollars furnished. The interesting
aud impressive dedicatory service
immediately followed. The cost of
the house and lot was between three
and four thousand dollars. Consider
ing the great pressure in the money
affairs OF the country, it must be add
mitted that the good people OF Bran
don and vicinity have doue nobly.-
At the conclusion of the service all
seemed to feel that a great and glOri-
Gus interest had been achieved.

TEXTILE FABRICS, SC

The fancy department consisting
Of textile fabrics, was notso full as il
would Gave been had it not been for
the rain, but there WAS n fine dis
play, and we wish that space would
permit US to mention the several ex-
hiIriti0rs:
Mrs. p. G.. Cole exhibited a needle
worked skirt that was much admired.
J. l.. Cole drew the first premium on
the best ten yards rag carpet. Mrs.
w. IL. Palmer drew the premium on
a homemade skirt. Emeline Ham
iiton exhibited number of fine ar
ticles, which also drew premiums.
Among the pictures we noticed

Among the mechanical and indus
trial productions VIC noticed fine dis
plays by the Cabinet Union and Or

FRUITS AND FLOWERS.

The display Of apples, as an.
nounced last week, was far ahead OF
anything before had in the Cedar
Valley, and we are safe In adding to
that, Northern Iowa.
AS we announced the most Of those
having apples Oh exhibition last
week, We will merely quote the re-
marks of the committee
The committee would make favor.
able mention of w. II. Palmer's ex-
hibition, as being really valuable
collection of winter fruit, and in the
perfection Of their growth display in
a high degree The knowledge of Il
| hortiCulturist.
The committee would cay that Mr..
Ridpath placed the largest collection
of grated fruit on exhibition, and
we congratulate the people OF this
county that they can point to him as
among the fruit growers of the coun.
ty. The committee also regret that
they were prevented by The condi.
tion of the premiums from making
proper discrimination between varie.
ty and quality.
! Among many other varieties OF
fine fruit the committee would also
mention ID. G, Overman, who has
made a very crcditable display, anu
! A. Shafer, who exhibits 10 varieties
Of choice apples"
The gentlemen exhibiting flowers
were T.. Stearns, G. a. Knowles oil
Laporte, J. I. LichenthaIer, Bishop
q Bancroft, Rev. ID. s. Starr, i.
Melendy, r. j. Spear.
On these the committee report :
THE display is extensive and beau
tifui, and remarks would fail to ex-
press the admiration of the commit
teo."
