North Alabama Presby-
terry.
For the Fayetteville Observer.

The Fall meeting of this body
was held at Swan OR Eek Church,
commencing Thursday, Sept.
9th, at IL a. m, and closing
Saturday afternoon. The open
ing sermon was preached by the
retiring Moderator, Rev. j. a.
Woods.
Rev. Robert Gray was cho-
sen Moderator, and G.B. Boyles,
Esq, temporary clerk. Very
little besides the usual routine
business was done. The meet
ing was a pleasant and harmo-
NOUS one, tending, we believe,
to promote the interest Of the
church, and the glory Of God.
Every days session was COM
menced with prayer meeting
whichwas well attended. There
was preaching every day at II
a. NJ, and also with one ex-
ception, on account of rainy
every night.
The attendance on the preach
ing services was large. The
whole population, for miles a.
round, seemed moved by a COM
mon impulse to turn out and
enjoy the special privileges of
the occasion.
After the adjournment Of
Presbytery, preaching and 9TH
er religious services were con-
tinued with increasing interest.
Indications Of the presence and
work Of the Holy Spirit were
manifested by numbers coming
forward to express their anxiety
and desire for the prayers Of
Christians.
When the writer left on We'd
nesday P. M, one had expressed
a hope of having experienced a
saving change. Several were
seeking the way Of life, and a
general solemnity prevailed in
the community.
The meetings are to be con-
tinued indefinitely. 1t is I'M
derstood that the interest is
still increasing. The next sta
ted meeting of Prcsbytery will
be held at Lewisburg on the
Thursday preceding the full
moon in April, 1875. G.

A Welcome Letter from
Norris Greek.
For the Fayetteville Observer.
OAK HILL, Oct. 9Th, 1874.

OAK HILL, Oct. 9Th, 1874.
Editor Observeq-I will en-
deayor to fulfill my promise to
give you some few ''dots" from
our little village, and [ may re-
mark right here by way of apol-
! ogy for the brevity of news,
there is but little material to
work on, outside of what Mrs.
Grundy or Madame Gossip fur
nishes, and as the character Of
the two persons mentioned is so
well known, it is not necessary
to quote their observation of
alters in general. Suffice it
to say, ace are blessed(?) with
their presence as well as all 9TH
err communities.
l will state in the first place,
that educational interests are not
overlooked or neglected here
The Institute, under charge of
Prof. Himebaugh, is, in spite
Of the "hard tines" in pros
porous condition. There are at
present i'll attendance 119 pu-
pills. If We may judge from
observing the interest seeming
lily manifested by teachers and
pupils, in educating and being
educated, no better school can
be found in this country. But
while the mind is being cult
waited, it is sad to see that high
er interests are being neglected,
to-wit, the cultivation and en-
nobling of the spiritual man.
We seldom have preaching,
and the result is, that the NOR
ais of many, young and old, are
getting shaky; that is to say,
the warning voice Of conscience
is being hushed. If we had a
street preacher he might get a
congregation at any time on the
corner, as many meet at that
place on the Sabbath day to dis
cuss politics: exchange opin-
ions, and tell what they know
about matters in general, re-
newing their tagging spirits by
pouring the spirits down. A
better state of affairs must be
inuagurated, or our young men
will be ruined, and that speedily.
The new Cumberland Pres
byterian Church about three
miles from this place, was dedi-
Gated on the Goth ult. The ded-
icatory sermon was preached
by Rey.S. Z. Chestnut, of Nash
vile. Protracted meeting was
commenced Immediately after
and has been carried on for
eight or ten days with very
good success. Many through
the blessing of God have been
converted, and the heart Of their
pastor, Rev. |. B. Rankin, been
gladdened, and the church
strengthened in faith and num-
bers.
The ingathering of crops
shows the effect Of the severe
drouth-we have passed through.
Many farmers will have to sell
or otherwise dispose Of the most
of their horses and mules on
account Of the scarcity Of feed.
1t is rather a gloomy prospect,
but it might be worse.
For the present I will cease,
but if my humble efforts to
keep you posted as to the affairs
in this end Of the county, are
or will be acceptable will glad
ly write. Yours, j. e. B.

We Mean business.

The undersigned would res
pectfuliy announce to their nu-
merous friends and the public
generally, that owing to the
great stringency in money mat
tiers, and the difficulty Of max
ing collections, they have re-
solved to return to their origi-
nal design Of doing a strictly
cash and barter business, and
have therefore reduced the price
of their goods to suit the times.
Our stock Of Iron and Hard
ware is very complete, and at
astonishingly low prices. Wag-
Onsl Wagons! we sell the Ten
nessee Wagon Of which we
keep a full assortment; every
wagon warranted-prices from
20 to $50. We are also pre-
pared to fill allorders for Farming
Implements, Cider, Sorghum
Mills, Gins, &c, on short no.
tice at factory prices. Give
Is a call. We again call on
our friends to come and settle.
If you can't get the money,
bring your produce-will give
5 cents per .bushel over the
market price for a few hundred
bushels Of wheat, in payment
of debts due us.

@ The store of our friend
j. W. Rawies, at Moline, was
burglarized last Saturday night.
An aperture was made in the
rear wall of the building by
boring two rows of holes, a.
bout two feet apart, and lifting
out the piece thus severed. A
bolt of calico, pair of boots and
other articles, aggregating fif-
teen dollars in value, were ia
ken. The thief has not yet
been discovered.

NS Mules were offered for
sale on the Square last Monday
at $25 aud $50 each, without
purchasers. Twelve months ago
they would have readily brought
$50. These facts forcibly illus
trate the present financial condi-
ton Of the country. The little
capital that is left with us lacks
confidence for new investments,
and there seems to be a general
uncertainty and waiting for some
thing to turn up.
