AT CHEsTER HEIGHTS CAMP.

Yesterday was the last Sunday OF the
season at the camp meeting nowi In pro-
gress at Chester Heights, on the Balti-
more Central Railroad, and the services
will be brought to q close to-nigh'.
While the meetings have not been as
successful as could have been desired,
vet those interested in them have been
very much encouraged, and the amount
of good done, they state, is not always
to be estimated by the number OF con-
verts whe declare themselves on the
grounds. ..ts
= At the morning services, yesterday,
which Wee held in the auditorium, there
were probably 1900 people, while at
least 800 more, evidently drawn TO the
grounds by curiosity, were in constant
motion, moving from one point To an
other. This, Of necessity, was the case,
as all the benches were arranged IN the
auditorium, and the ground was too
damp 10 sit down on. The morning
sermon was preached by Rev. A. j.
Kynett, d. ID. Secretary of the Board OF
Church Extension of the Nj. II. Church.
On the platform were seated Rev. g. +.
Turner, Rev. Enoch Stubbs, Rev. Henry
| Sandersons, Rev. VIM. McComb, Rev.
Mr.. Harvey, Rev. VIM. j.. Mcdowell,
Rev. Mr.. Mooney and Rev. j. b. Me
Cullough. aalfu.
AT half past one O'Clock n children's
meeting was held, conducted by Rev.
| William Major, while at the same time
interesting meetings were held In the
Central and Cohocksink tents, at the
top of the hill. AT three O'Clock the reg
ular afternoon services were held, Rev.
5. w. Thomas delivering the sermon
During the afternoon the number Of Wis
itors was materially increased by people
from the surrounding towns, who came
in carriages, there being but one train
from Philadelphia, until the number
presentywas estimated at 4OCO.
During the meetings there have beer
number of converts, and IL is said that
everything taken into consideration, the,
have been successful. One of the officer
stated that the amount could not Away
be estimated, as frequently persons
would 90 home and start a meetin.
there. Last year certain young people
after reaching their homes, started re
vival, and the result was that about sixt,
persons joined the Church. The meet
ing this year will not compare YER
favorably with those held in previou
years, either in point of attendance o
the work done.
The daily gazette., 1879-07-28

The condition of the British farmers
at the present moment is certainly not
an agreeable one, even If the farmers
are not quiet so near ruin as the London
Times chooses to represent them. The
real cause of the English farmers lies
here. In the years 1S67-S England i'm
ported s,00O,000 quarters of wheat, in
lsT7-s she imported l3,OOO,O00 quarters,
5000, 900 more quarters than the increase
in the population warranted. The re-
suit of this has been, of course cheap
bread, and Improbable farming. Ameri-
competition in wheat growing is quite
enough to account for the agricultural
distress, and the Committee of Inquiry
appointed recently TO examine into the
causes of agricultural depression now
recognizes this very clearly. II is be-
coming every day more evident that
England cannot compete with the
United States in the raising of wheat,
and that, other things being equal, she
will be beaten out Of the market. Land
lords declare they cannot lower the rents
and Parliament declines to give any
practical relief by reimbursement of loca
taxation so that placed between ''th'
fire and the frying-pan," the agriculture
interests of England seem in bad way
The farmers hard pressed on every side
are many of them leaving their farm
and carrying their money and industr
to other fields of enterprise. They ar
being literally driven out Of their farm
by the Americans, and it does not seen
likely that they will soon get back.

Quoted in rather perfnnctory manner
