"A subscriber at Cedar Creek
writes us that he has received only
two numbers Of the paper in the
last month. We DO not know
where the fault rests. The pa
per is mailed regularly, and II
not received, is owing to neglect OF
duty somewhere in the postal ser
vice. If further complaint is made
We shall be compelled to appeal to
the Department.
Old Pomp was not a preacher,
but he was something astonishing
on the exhort. One night he
gathered the darkies in one of the
cabins and proceeded forthwith to
have a rousiug time, relIgiousIy
speaking. He called up mourners
and his good heart was gratllied
by the exceeding potency OF his
ministry, and in the fervency OF
spirit he prayed: Come down,
Lord, come down jist now; and II

The u. Y. Church.

A correspondent. Of the Metho-
dist Advocate writes to that pa
per:
"Greenyille station is enjoying
prosperity. The difficulty in re-
gard to Church property has been
finally compromised with the NJ.
E. Church South, and there is
peace and quietness along the
line The observance of the week
of prayer was followed by q very
interesting revival lasting several
weeks and resulting in about
thirty-fve conversions, and twelve
a~ccessions to the NJ. L. Church,
other Churches uniting in the
labors and sharing in the fruits OF
it. Our Church is greatly en-
couraged and strengthened, the
congregations are large, the pray
er-meetings well attended. Three
new classes have been formed and
are conducted agreeably to Dis
cipllnary rules. We are in great
need Of the subscriptions made at
the dedication, and unless speedily
paid, we will not be able to meet
our obligations, which will be a
drawback to us and embarrass
those upon whom the heaviest part
of the burden rests"

Educational,

The public schools are closing
out. The attendance has been
good. Parents have taken much
interest in visiting many OF the
schools, and teachers have been
greatly encouraged by their pres
ence. Much good has been done
numbers Of children have been
taught to read and write who
were unable to attend subscription
schools. The mass have been
greatly benefited.
Public schools r in demand
and more money is needed to meet
this demand.
We need better school houses,
and longer school terms. How
shall We secure these thingsP
Teachers and directors will have
to bring this subject before the
people and discuss IT,

An old Tree.


There is a large walnut tree
standing near the end Of the bridge,
known as TIE GAINESVILLE bridge
in the upper end of Greene county,
on the south side Of the Nola
Cbucky river, that was growing
there in the year l777 when Henry
Earnest settled there. The land
where this venerable tree stands is
now owned by Mr.. B. F. Earnest,
n grandson of Henry Earnest, and
the large and valuable tract OF
land entered by Henry Earnest al
most n century ago has never been
out of the hands of the family and
is now owned by his descendants
Although three or fur generations
have sported beneath the UNI
brageous boGghs of this old tree,
and he bears the scars of q century,
he laughs to scorn the lempests'
rage and bows not his head to the
