THE WOMAN'S Bible MISSION.

uiversar Meefing-The society Ad.
dressed by Eminent ministers.
The anniversary meeting Of the Woman's
Bible Mission, of Nashville, was held IN
McKendree Church last evening, being
called to order by DR.. Hargrove. There
was a full attendance Of members. The
exercises were opened with prayer by Rev.
DR.. G. D. Oliver, and consisted OF short
addresses on the subject of missions.
Bishop j.. c. Keener, in a brief speech,
set forth the benefits derived from Il c an
organization as the WOman's Bible Mis-
sion, and the difficulties it has TO contend
with, and urged the members to the utmost
exertiOn IN spreading the light OF the Holy
Scriptures.
Bishop L. W. Marvin next, in a few re-
marks, gave some account Of Bible Mission
Societies in Otner places, what they had
accomplished and what they were hopeful
of achieving. From all such examples be
could draw only encouragement to the
ladies composing the society in Nashville.
Rev. DR.. A. II. Winfield, of Arkansas,
followed in his Enthusiastically agreeable
stvle. making an address which doubtless
had its effect of inspiring the ladies with
renewed zeal for the prosecution OF their
work.
The association reported collected and
expended about $50. Under their care a
Bible woman and four little Chinese girls.
A large paIt Of their funds have been used
in Christian efforts among the poor Of our
own city. Dat of this association sprang
the "Woman's Home from which untold
blessings are expected.
It had been intended to hold the ami
versary on Sunday afternoon, but was
changed to meet the appointment for the
Sunday-schOol mass meeting, which pre-
vented so large an attendance as would
otherwise have been present.
The meeting was brought to a close by
the ~benedictiOu pronounced by Rev. DR.. }.
B. McFeTr.n.

Central Bapfist Picnic.

The Sunday-schOol picnic season was in
augurated yesterday by the Central Baptist
Sunday-schOOl. About five hundred per
sons took an excursion to the Hermitage
on the Shippers Own. After arriving at the
grounds about y o'clock the party dispersed
in groups and commenced to prepare din
ner. After dinner had been served they ell
gagged in various games, and quite a large
number visited the old homestead of An
drew Jackson in wagons and buggies. Dur
ing the afternoon, Rev. DR.. ThOs. Swain,
Of Philadelphia, was elOquently "caned'
by Rev. W. O.. Inman The cane was
~splendidly gotten up and was presented by
the members Ofthe Central Baptist Church.
DR.. Swain INDUCED in some few remarks
that were very appropriate TO the occasion.
The picnic proved a decided success and all
present seemed 10 enjoy themselves hugely.
The party reached the wharf about seven
o'clock last evening, and We're met by a
large crowd Of people. Four young ladies'
and a gentleman concluded to return in a
sziff instead Of in the boat, and probably
did not reach here before II o'clock last
night.

The lee supply.

Very few people have any idea Of the
amount Of ice that was cut up and stored
away in this vicinity during the past win
ter. The weather was favorable for such
operations, and over 1000 tons was obtain
ed. At least three-fOurths Of this
will be placed in the market
here, thus competing in a rather
formidable way with the ice brought from
the West per river, and upon which our
citizens have heretofore relied almost en-
tirely for their supply during the summer
months. Prices have already been forced
down tOa lower point than was ever known
before, and the contest between dealers for
patronage is exceedingly spirited. The
ruling rate per 100 lbs. IS Is cents, but We
hear Of contracts as low as 60 cents, and
one or two parties talk of dropping
to 50 cents. Ice now Tetails at one
cent per pound, whereas in previous
seasons it has hardly ever sold at less than
from two to two and 4 half cents in small
quantities.
The Kingston and Quincy Bay cOmpa-
MES have already sent several barges Of Ice
here from the West, and they have i'm
meuse reserves TO draw upon.
The following have cut ice near Nash
vie dlu DIT oEL4AA6 IL AEANf a. "fA4 a. man
ing shipments South: Whiteman q Co.,
500 tons; Lanier & Robertson, 600 tons;
Paul Dismuke, 600 tons; w. S. Whiteman,
IT,, 800 tons; Bill Alternately and William
Dismukes, both coloved, zoo tons;
Joseph and john Carney, 400 tons;
Johns, Freeman 81 Wagner, 600 ions;
William Winters, who has recently sold
out to a dealer, SO tons; James Winters,
100 tons: Freeman & Glover, about 200
tons: making a total Of 400 tons, which,
we are assured, is not IN excessive esti-
mate. This ice was cut from MarrOwbOue
creek and forks Of Whites creek, and is Of
very superior qualify. Some Of the
parties have invested a good deal
of money in the business.
Quincy Bay ice has been introduced
here this summer for the first time, and
through the enterprise Of Messrs. Hess x
Reid, dealers, and Mr.. d. B. Hicks, the
agent, is gaining great favor.
On the whole, we see no prospect Of a
corner in ice this summer. Prices will
be low enough to satisfy even the poorest.

EDUCATION OF TEACHERS.
VIII the University OF Nashville be
Converted Into q Normal SCHOOL,
DIR, a In the City TO See About it.

DIR. Sears in the City to See AOOut IL.
By request Of the Committee Of the
Board of Trustees of the University Of
Nashville, to which was referred the matter
of combining the State Normal school with
that institution Dr.. B. Sears, Agent Of
the Peabody Education Fund, is now on a
visit to our city. DR.. Sears has manifested
great interest in heseducational system Of
Tennessee. This is his seventh or eighth
visit to our city in its behalf. he has dis
tributed to the public schools Of the State
since 1867 more than 100000. He re-
CARDS Tennessee as a great ceutre Of In
fuence, and has given it perhaps more at
tention than any other State. Our citi-
zens are unanimous in hoping that through
his fundamentally, and that Of u Uni
versity and State Boards, a Normal school
will be opened next September on such a
plan as to command the patronage Of the
South. Our State Superintendent is Of
opinion that such a school will in a few
years have a thousand students.
