The Bible Reading at the Methodist
Church on last Sunday afternoon was we'll
sttended and considerable degree of interest
manifested. The subject Of the Bible lesson was
"Consecraton," and was conducted by Mr.
Johnston In very pleasing manner. Some
twenty-five persons took part in the exercises,
including several ladies. The reading AZ a
general thing wa6 good, and the common to
made BY members Of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association were appropriate and to tho
point. We would be glad that the young
men Of our association would favor our oi.i.
sens with another Bible readiug at an early
day. We believe they will be productive Of
much good.
If you want to got your money back wait
until the new goods of O. L. Reid & Go. ar.
rive from New York. They will be here by
next Monday. heap of them aud at low
figures. Mr.. Reid has been on in person and
msde the selections, and he reports goods;
except woolens. very low. so that his custo-
mers may expect bargains at his sounter.
He has bought a very. superior line Of ladies'
dress goods and good assortment of ready
made clothing, as we'll as full line Of notions
hats, bhoes &C.,, to make complete outfit
for this market. Mr.. Reid has for years been
known to the trading public Of this county as
reliable in every respect, and especially has
he recommended himself as merchant by tho
superior quality Of tue goods he puts on tho
market. He keeps no shoddy merchandise,
buying and selling only the freshest manu,
faotures. Remember next week the pick aud
choice can be had. So save your money and
get cash bargains. Sec advertisement else
where.
j. II. Sigh & Soc send out pleasing infor.
nation to tho people of our county 10 their
last advertisements. They propose to pay the
highest market price for cotton in cash. and
trust to sell people goods by Offering them
inducements in low prices and the superior
quality Of their goods. This s. the right
spirit. 1t has always been the curse Of this
market that our merchants would seldor' huy
for cash at ALL and if they offered cash it was
shamefally low price in cash or a reasonable
price in goods. Treat tho farmer right aud
he will return tho favor. Buy his cotton for
the money and if he have an ounce of soul
he will buy what he needs from you for cash.
Sligh Son propose to do this. and such a
spirit deserves the patronage Of our people
and in our judgment will secure it. They
keep full line Of excellent goods and their
prices are very low. Remember they offer
you cash for your cotton aud you should for
each buy what you need from them.

1t seems that locals have become common.
and as it ia very interesting to learn by them
what our farmers are d"ing in differe'
sections, we pr"nnSe, If you approve Of our
course, to give Martin's Creek a representa-.

Many Of our fnrmers have been getting
cross ties for the past four or five weeks, but
at present they are busily engaged with their
cotton and fodder.
Crops in this immediate vicinity are not
good. The spring seasons were unfavorable.
ard this. with drought Of six weeks in July
and August, worked injury to all crops.
There has been great deal Of cane planted
in this section, and Messrs. Fredericka &
Canada are unable, with their mill and eyapo
rator. to Accommodate their customers.
very interesting series Of meetings is
being conducted at, Shiloh Baptist Church by
by Revs. Ilnys and Crenshaw The people
