PRAYER MEETING,
This meeting is held every Wednesday night
at clock, and is generally pretty well attend
ed. 1t IS great privilege that Christians in
this community enjoy, after being annoyed by
temptation and business troubles half Of the
week, to repair to their different places Of wor-
ship on Wednesday night and pour out their
hearts desire to God, for
Prayer is the souls sincere desire
Uttered or uncxpreSscd,
The motion of hidden fire
That trcmbles in the breast"
Then, Christian, If you desire any good 60
and pray. If you are tempted go and pray.
In fact for every condition in human affairs
there is n remedy in the blood bought mercy
seat If you are week, get strong By frequent
prayer, for remember that

FOR THE PROMOTION or HOLINESS
This meeting is held every Friday night Mt :
| o'clock. and is now also well attended. Rev,
Mr. Ford instituted this meeting soon after his
return to this Conference, and glorious results
| followed. 1t awakened an interest on the ques-
| ton, and many became convinced of the fact
that Sanctifcation could be obtained properly
sought after. The National Camp Meeting gave
| an additional impetus to the question, and dur
| ing its progress quito number protested to
! have obtained that holiness of heart without
| which no one can see God in peace After the
| Camp Meeting was broken up the meeting
| every Friday night was again commenced and
we believe that several have received the great
blessing since.
Boldly and faithfully is this Church now
| pressing forward, with the banner Of Christ un-
! furcd to the breeze and the glorious gospel its
| guide it is marching on to sure victory, for
the Captain who leads the Christian host, has
| never lost a battle,

Want of transportation.

Mr. Levey, a director in the Columbia, South
Carolina, Gas Works, paid our city visit yes
terday for the purpose of procuring quantity
of coal for the Columbia Gas Works, but for
want of transportation he is compelled TO return
without making contracts with our coal dealers.
he says Columbia will be without gas, and that
coal is far superior to any coal in the United
States for gas purposes
East Tennessee coal is in great demand, and
our railroad officials should aid il supplying it
by furnishing transportation, The demand

CATTLE.
The inactivity Of the cattle market, alluded
TO IN our last report, continues. But few cattle
have been received during the past week. and
they were of very ordinary quality, and were
bought by our city butchers. We hear of no
engagements for other markets, and believe our
cattle shippers are without orders. No change
has occurred in prices

HOGS.
The market for hogs continues active, and the
receipts for the past week justify the belief that
the market is fairly opened, and that the trade
in hogs this season will exceed that of any form
er year. The opening of the packing houses
seems to have permanently established the
prices for the season at 81 00a4 25 per 100 lbs.

HAY.
The demand for hay is largely in excess of
the supply, and we advise our farmers who have
hay to sell to bring it in while the weather is ia
vorable. We do not anticipate further ad
vance IN prices as there are thousands of tons
along the rivers above Knoxville, which will be
brought down as the waters rise, but even should
slight advance occur it would hardly Justify
our farmers to haul when the roads and weather
are bad.
