On Wednesday last, 18th February, by pre-
vious appointment, number Of the farmers
Of McSlinn county, Tennessee, having assem-
bled at Nell's Mills, on Mouse Creek, were
met and addressed by Col. c. W. Charlton, on
the nature and objects OF the organization
known as The Patrons OF Husbandry. II was
represented that the agricultural interests Of
the country could be best subseryed by n
united effort Of the "sons Of tOlii under the
auspices Of that order. After the conclusion
OF Col. Charlton's remarks, the organization
Of Grange was effected. composed OF 20 good,
practical, farmers, their wives and daughters,
with ii. X. Brown, as Master, and a full corps
Of officers. Other proceedings were had look
ing TO the future successful working Of said
Grange (called McMinn Grange) when an adj
journment WAS made until Tuesday next, 9Th
inst, when the committees will report, and a
election Of officers will be had for the ensuing
twelve months. All seemed pleased with the
inside Of the organization, and those who
have tried It are determined 10 perpetuate the
society, believing great benefits will result to
the community at large. The Secretary pro
TEN was asked to furnish a synopsis Of the
proceedings to the editor OF the ATHENS Posr,
and request publication OF same.

prove the agricultural interests Of his neigh

money and much labor In the work, and we

to considerable extent. His greatest diff

To the Editor Of the Athens Post:
In Il late issue of your paper you refer to an
incident said to have lately taken place in Mr..
Tallnage's church In Brooklyn. 1t Is said
that DIR. T. was preaching on future punish
ment, and the picture he drew was so terrible
that Young lady from Rhode Island, visiting
friends in Brooklyn, tainted in the congrega-
ton and soon afterwards died. You made
such comments on th incident rs seemed to
you proper. | simply desire to inform you
and your readers that no such thing ever hap
pened. Precisely that same story has been
told on various eminent preachers, such for
example as DR.. Griffin, DR.. Emmons, Dir. Ly-
man Beecher, and others. Lately a lady from
Rhode Island, seventy years Of age, was visit
Ing some friends in Brooklyn, aud on her way
to Mr.. ralmage's church was seized with
heart disease and died without ever reaching
the church ut all. This served rs the occasion
for rowling the old story (never true) which
has been told of many eminent ministers and
will probably be told of many more. The
above facts have directly from RESPONSE
