and although ii was exceedingly warm h
had large congregations on both occasions
and preached with power. The text in tn
morning was from the I'd Epistle of Peter

a strong, logical sermon, eloquently anC
earnestly delivered. He said there wer'
three kinds of Christians, viz: the Doetfln

the Experimental Christian. Inc l1ocuIh

doctrines Of his own church, ana tnosN o

PRACTICAL Christian is one who gives iiDeT'

steam Mill almost Burnt in Santa Fe

To the Editors o. TIC Columbia Herald:
On Tuesday the 4th inst, aS the citi-
zens of Santa Fe and vicinity were leis
urely discussing the probable results OF
the coming election, they were startled
by the shrill scream of the whistle at
tached to the Touring null Of Cowley q
Mermey. Again and again it sent forth
its piercing notes of warning and alarm,
and soon the cry of fire! resounded
throughout the village, and there was
a general rush for the mill, which was
partially envelopeG in smoke; one end
of the roof was IN flames. The LADIES' in
the vicinity sent all of their water
buckets in haste, and every man did his
dIttU Too much praise cannot be be-
slowed upon these noble hearted men,
each one of whom worked as ii 1t were
his own individual property, and after
doubtful contest the fire was extin-
guished, and in less thaQ two hours the
mill was grinding on as usual. Mrs,
BuckneT discovered the fire and gave
the alarm. Mr., Buckner, the miller,
and Mr.. Montgomery, the engineer, in
the emergency of the moment, forgetful
of.all else, FASTENED to the top of the
house to combat the flames, leaving the
mill running and a high pressure OF
steam in the boiler. Mrs. Buckner
blew the whistle that gave the alarm,
then stopped the mill and engine, and
then turned off the steam. All honor to
this heroic woman The loss OF this
mill would have been a severe blow to
its owners, who have recently erected it
at great expense, and would have been
a calamity to the county for many miles
around, for it is doing good work and
giving great satisfaction to its patrons.
Cowley & Meroney have taken steps to
prevent a similar oc ,urrenee, but should
il happen to take fire, they will be pre-
pared to throw water from their pump
over the entire building. ARKLEY.
