Our meeting at Kedron closed
last Sunday night, after a duration
of nine days, with Ia professions and
8 accessIons to the church.
The church was wonderfully re
vived and the great masses oil
christians seemed to sit together in
heavenly places in Christ Jesus.
Some troubles were adjusted and
many sorrows were buried, to have,
| trust, no resurrection. During
this revival, prayer meetings were
held with old Mother Tucker,
Simpson Harris, Albert Wells,
Washington Tucker, Jesse Bodies
and Emanuel Roberts. These were
chiefly in the interest of the afllic
ted mem bers of the community and
they were intensity interesting.

Rules for Persons Visiting Fairs

AS many who attend agricultural
fairs are ignorant Of the rules that
govern such exhibitions, a practical
agricultural man has made up the
following code of rules that are ap
plicable to fairs at all times and in
all sections:
Don't crawl in o7er the fence,
but go through the gate. The
fence is simply for ornament.
Keep to the right as you pass
around. If you don't you may get
lett.
If you observe any animal which
strikes your particular fancy, go by
it at once.
In passing around among the
live stock, remember that the
horses and cattle are well heeled.
Beware of pick-pockets; to avoid
putting them to any unnecessary
trouble, carry your wallet in your
hands.
In case you should get lost, hire
some one to find you. Twelve
cheap boys will be stationed on
the ground for this purpose.
In walking around you will find
plenty of chances to get square
meal.
Amy man caught squirting at the
weather and predicting rain will be
ordered to dry up.
The half mile track is not a mile
around. Bear this in mind and it
may save you much sorrow in after
years.
In case your pig don't get the
prize, don't bristle up and squeal
about it.
When you get tired of sitting,
take the grand stand.

A very interesting panorama
entitled the Apocalyptic Vision

was exhibited at Antoinette Hall
Friday and Saturday nights last, by
the artist, Mr.. T. L. Butt. Half of
the proceeds of the first nights en-
tertainment were donated to the
Methodist church. Some of the
paintings were very beautiful and
displayed artistic conceptions of the
highest order. The Gate of Pearl
and the River of Life were presen
ted in a flood of splendor and elici-
ted enthusiastic admiration. The
artist is quite young man, but it
is plain, from this early sample of
his work, that he is endowed with
extraordinary talent. The PIANO
rama will be exhibited in the diff
ferent towns of Tennessee and we
heartily recommend it TO all lovers
OF the beautiful.

COTTON.

We are under obligations to ono of our
cotton buyers for tho following condition OF
the cotton market:l
Neither tho present condition Of tho cot
ton market Is at all satisfactory. The drouth
Of July and the early part of August caused
the squares and young bolls TO she'd prcfiise-
ly. Then came heavy continued rains
which not only delayed picking but stopped
the maturing OF tho fruit and proved great
damage to that which was already matured
SO at present tho first picking now coming in
IS generally low grade dusty, stained and
damp. This state Of things viii prove heavy
loss to the planter and all others concerned &.
Had not this misfortune ovortaken the crop,
this section no doubt would havo at least
marketed the largest crop known in her his
tory. II is thought that tho second pick will
be much better in grade and general quality
than the first, but it is agreed on ali sides
that the sverage yiold will be much below
last season. The following arc Pulaski ono
