doing what they honestly can to
advance their party. Next Friday
night promises to be unusually in

Spring Stock Sale.

The new board of directors of
the Fair Association will meet
next Saturday to organize. A
strong effort will be made to au
thorize and set OH foot measures to
resume the stock sales next spring.
The sale fell through last spring
not for lack of stock to sell, nor
on account of any unwillingness on
the part of owners to cooperate,
but because of delay in making the
entries in time for proper adver-
tisement. We consider it of vast
importance to the stock interests
of Giles that these sales should be
kept up. 1t is useless, however, to
urge this apparent fact-the mat
ter to be pressed is the getting
ready in time The association is
on a permanent, solvent footing,
and its condition and all its sur
roundings conspire to insure a sue
cessful sale next spring, if owners
so desire. We doubt not the sale
will be authorized next Saturday,
or at an early day, and We call up
on stock men, and all others who
recognize the benefits to accrue, TO
assist in reviving this important
feature of the Association.

actress, Miss Ida Gray, supported
by Charles A. Watkins com bina-
lions, will appear at Antoinette
Hall Friday and Saturday nights
October 22d and Odd, and at a
matinee on the afternoon of the
latter day. Miss Gray Is acknowl-
edged to rank among the best emo
tional and tragic actresses of the
day and has no peer in some Of her
favorite characters. She is an ar
list so thorough in her delineation
of passion as to deceive her audi
ence regarding the identity of self.
The company supporting her en-
braces some rare histrionic talent,
and their engagement here will I'm
doubtedly be attended with success.

One OF The saddest events i have
ever witnessed was the death and
funeral of Mrs. A Ella Brown, wife
of Mr.. r. Van Brown, at Bethel
On Dec. IS, 1879. she stood in her
bridal robes, beautiful and full of
hope. On Sept. %, 1880, we laid
her to rest in the family burying
ground. Even in her burial robes
She was beautiful. The pallor OF
death could not destroy the sur
passing loneliness of her face. Her
sweet little infant, scarcely twenty
four hours old when she passed
away, survives to go through this
world of care without knowing or
feeling .he holy influence of moth

WEDNESDAY, Ger. ID, 1880.
The Tennessee Conference met at
9 o'clock, A. NJ, Bishop Paine pre-
siding. The opening services con
sisted of reading, singing and pray
err, DIR. J. B. McFerrin assisting the
bishop.
The roll of members, clerical
and lay, was called, after which Rev.
Robt. A. Young, D. D., was re-elect-
ed secretary.
Several communications relating
to the Publishing House and Mis-
sionary interests were read and re-
ferred. The report Of DR.. Meier
rim, agent of the Publishing House,
was very gratifying, showing that
that institution was now free
from the financial difficulties which
have heretofore embarrassed its OPP
erations. The business for the
present year has been unusually
good and the outlook in every way
is very encouraging. DIR. Wilson,
of Baltimore, reported the mission

more prosperous than at any time
since the organization of the church.

committees the conference ad-
