MS. Narisr PnnIrs.,

WHO DIED FEBRUARY Urn, 1873.
Tie christian spirit hath flown away,
From this weary world Of pain,
To join the loved ones gone before;
In heaven you'n meet her again.
When the angels gently cane
To bear her spirit home,
She was ready, calmly waiting,
For the messenger to come.
"oser there" where christians dwell,
In that far of happy home,
She is waiting now to welcome you
When the Savior bids you come.
She has passed deaths stormy rivor,
And her journey now is Ger;
Kindred spirits stood waiting
To welcome her upon the shore.
Then, do not grieve, but only think
What she has suffered here
Has been exchanged for bright
And glorious happy sphere.

Mite Gatherers' Association.
Important Work.

Important Work.
To supplement the efforts of the trustees
to relieve of debt the Methodist Church
in Bolivar, the Sunday School scholars have
organized themselves into Mite Gatherers'
Association to raise funds to aid this
worthy object. Each child will, be furnish
ed with card properly arranged to receive
the names of ten contributors, each promis-
ing to give only ten cents month for one
year. The children to be arranged into
classes of five collectors each, presided over
by a lady supervisor, who will help the
members of the class to have the collection
cards filled with subscribers and at the end
of each month will see that the children col
lcct their mite contributions and be ready
through her to make payment OF the same
to the Treasurer at each stated monthly
meeting. The following are the officers OF
the society: G. w. Armistead, President
DIR. E. D. Moore, Treasurer; w. T. Armis-
tead, Recording Secretary DIR. D. w. New
bern, Corresponding Secretary.
1t is the desire of the projectors of this en-
terprise to extend its working outside of
Bolivar, reaching not only the different
sections of the county but also the surround
ing country. We want Middleburg, Hick-
DRY Valley, Whiteville, Grand juno
ton, Salisbury, Middleton, Pocahontas,
LAGRANGE, Jackson, and the other contig-
uous points, each to organize class of five
children collectors, and choose some one as
supervisor to whom we will gladly send the
collection cards for immediate work. This
plan is simple, feasible, and not burdensome
upon the purse of any one in the communi-
ty being based upon the practical philoso-
ply of aggregated accunulations. This law
is a success, as evidenced by nature in all
its formations.
| The children will ask only monthly ten
cent mite-nothing more, nothing less, thus
placing all contributors upon the same foot
ing and preventing unpleasant rivalry be-
tween collectors, as the children will deserve
equal praise in collecting, each month the
same amount. This, however, will not pre-
vent one person from contributing to more
than one card nor from signing his name in
more than one place on each card. Ten
cents is printed on the monthly payment.
This coming Sabbath these cards viii be
distributed and the work commence with
February.
The officera, supervisors and collectors are
expected to be very diligent in order tc
make this effort real success. We hope
the public will give it a hearty support. Ii
is the children's movement to relieve Z
church of pressing financial embarrassment
