DAN O'CoNNELL is the LATEST, but
most brilliant reporter in San Francis
co. He was, one day, detailed to re-
port DR.. Stones sermon. When the
divine was about half through, Dan
bethought' himself Of yact race, and
folding up his notes, made his exit
through the vestry room. The next
day the sermon appeared in the Clron-
acle. The reporter'had given cor
rect report up to the time he left, and
then, getting the general gait of the
theological argument, tackled on an ex-
ira holy column of brilliant metaphor,
and highly colored descriptive matter,
without much regard to theology.
The Doctor came around in wrath
next day, and wanted the reporter dis
charged. During the week, thpse Of
his congregation who had not attend
ed the church, congratulated him on
the last half of his superb discourse.

ANOTHER REPORT.

The most interesting affair OF
the past week was the examination
of our public school on Friday, the
25th inst, taught by Prof. S. d.
Clack. His method of conducting
the examination was as follows
Having selected from the audience,
d.. J. p, Butler, Mr.. r. II. Rags
dale, Prof. Ii. @ Alternately and
other gentlemen, he called up sue
cessively q class in the 2nd, 4Jh and
9th reader, requiring some one OF
the gentlemen named to call out the
number of the page on which they
should read, until the audience had
sufficient evidence of their prof
cheney. A similar course was pur-
sued with his classes in aritheme
tic and English Grammar--primary
and analytical. In arithmetic very
difficult examples were promptly
worked out, and were very clearly
explained, In grammar the ques-
tions were all answered, and the ex-
ercises correctlyanalyzed and parsed.
The classes in English composition,
and those in Latin-Cesar and
Virgil, we're not examined, but if
there had been sufficient time, they
no doubt would have acquitted
themselves creditably. The most
ignorant had suffif lent evidence that
the examination was fair, impartial
and rigid throughout. The entire
exercises showed clearly that the
teacher had been energetically en-
gagged Tor the benefit of his pupils,
which won from his most Intelll-
gent patrons the welcome plaudits,
I'VE are satisfied "
At 7 o'clock in the evening a
large crowd assembled in the NJ. +.
church and were highly entertained
till late hour by the school, with a
number of speeches, dialogues,
etc. | have Witnessed several exhi-
billions of a similar character, ana
considering the age and experience
of the pupils, don't think / ever
saw it excelled. The loud peals of
laughter and the thunders of APP
plause that occasionally foated out
on the gentle breeze was enough
to prove that the crowd enjoyed it
hugely. EX-SENATOR.

be congratulated. After enjoying
the PASTORAL services Of Rev. VIM.
A. Turner for four successive years,
they welcome as his successor Rev.
A. @. Dinwiddie, a man OF many
gifts and graces. Mr.. Dinwiddie
served the church ia Pulaski four
years, and developed it into one OF
the most prosperous charges in the
Tennessee Conference. His con
gregation we're reluctant 10 give

Correspondence Columbia Her
aid: We attended the sale at ''Stock
well farm" on the 18th inst, one
mile from Cornersville. Marshall
county. This farm was owned by
the late Maj. G t, Altman. There
were some thirty three head of thor
oughbred and trotting stock sold.
The prices realized were low for
that kind OF stock. Colts sold for
better prices than the. aged stock.
Capt. p G. Kidd was to have been
the auctioncer, but he failed to put
in his appearance, and 10. Burt, OF
Nashville, cried the sale. "Stock-
well farm" is situated in that part
of Marshall county that was cut off
from Giles few years ago. 1t is
one of the prettiest farms in Mar
shall county, living on the head wa
tiers OF RIchland creek, which creek
runs almost diagonally through
Giles county. Major Altman will
be very much missed by stock rails
ers generally. His own immediate
neighbors will miss him more than
any other men in the vicinity. He
being large stock raiser, bought
all the surplus corn and hay that
was raised in his neighborhood,
thereby giving his neighbors a
home market for their produce.
When any of them wanted a fine
animal of any kind to cross with
their stock, they did not have to go
far to get it, for he always kept the
very best that could be had.

Mr.. EDIToR:-If YOU will allow

note from the Valley. write from
within the yellow fever belt. There
is scarcely a place, large or small,
on the NJ. d C. r. r. from Decatur
to Memphis that has not been Wis
tied by the death-dealing pestilence.
Desolated homes and bereaved
hearts are left to mark its relentless
force. Two of our citizens were
hurried away by 1t about the middle
of September, and our little village
was depop~lated in day. It's inhab

safety. When they thought the
danger was past. they began to re

new cases having occurred for
several days, we begin to hope for
permanent relief. But what is our
grief, compared to those larger
towns and cities, where their dead
are numbered by hundreds and
thousands?
But aside from the yellow fever,
have never passed through such
scenes OF universal sickness and dis

forms, revel in almost every house

and almost discouraged. Many
have fallen, among whom are some
OF her mc st prominent citizens, and
saddest of all is that unfortunate,
prosecuted and sLaRdered pastor of
the Methodist Church, Rev. j w.

stand out of reach of danger and
criticise the conduct of others, but
they do not consider that perhaps
in the same circumstances they
would not do as well. Joel w.

was absent one day and night only,
when he returned, stood firm and
died serving his charge. Let those
whose tongues were so ready to

know that even that day and night
was spent in Florence looking after
the interest of his family who re-
sided there. w. L. ANDREWS.
