AUSTIN sIFTINGS,
A PINT APIECE.

An amusing misunderstanding occur
ed here in Austin few days ago Col.
Mapleson Dodge hired couple of dar-
keys to move his furniture to his new
house. After they had brought the first
load of furniture to the new house, the
Colonel, who was starting vegetable
garden, told them, on the next trip, to
bring pint Of peas from the grocery.
He waited and waited for the second
load of household effects, but it never
arrived. Finally, he started out to see
what had become of his household
effects. There was the loaded wagon
in front of the grocery store, inside
were the two darkeys as drunk as adj
journing congressman. When the Col.
told them to Get a pint of peas, they un-
derstood him to say "a pint apiece"
and pint of whisky they sell in the
Austin grocery store will stagger leg
islator who has served two consecutive
terms.

A Letter from Belleview.

Ed. Reglster-My school has now been in
operation two weeks in Mr.. Lashley's house.
The branches taught are photography, Iead
ing. writing, grammar, arithmetic and L. S.
history. The school holds four hours each
day. Having an excellent library within
reach, care is taken TO show the scholars ev-
erything pertaining to a subject, and they
are encouraged to ask questions; SO that u
lesson often leads to Il lengthy explanation.
The scholars are very bright and earnest,
and are learning well. l am much pleased
with Swinton'S Condensed United States
History, which is new to me. 1t is used as
the textbook in school. As there are sew
aral other histories within reach, lesson
can be expanded ut will. / am preparing a
condensed grammar, with but five parts of
speech; being tired of dragging scholars
through textbooks one-h half of which should
be thrown away AS SurpluSage.
On last Sabbath there was communion
service at the Presbyterian Church. The
number who partook was small. The Rev
McCarter is pastor. On next Sabbath will
join the Bible class in that church.
/ see by the REGISTER the particulars of
the presentation of a cane to ex-Collector
Buford, which is an honorable Testimonial
well deserved. | also see that the origin Of
the Church of England is under debate: but
no one Of the di>putants appears TO know
ANYTHING about the matter.
A writer in the last REGISTER advocates
a higher school for Ironton. There can not
be found in lronton enough scholars of
school age qualified to enter Il higher school
to justify the employment of another teacher
at the public expense. If any one thinks
that :, higher school is necessary, let it be Il
private enterprise. The Rev. \. W. Wright
could conduct such an institution very well
if il i made worth his while. T.C.

Fishing tackle at J. n. Bishops.

An unusually interesting meeting, under
the auspices of the Young Ladies' Missionary
Society was held in the Presbyterian Church
on Sabbath afternoon, March Is. The eXer-
ei>es began by reading the Scriptures, and
prayer by Rev. j. Donaldson. The Presi-
dent of the Society occupied the chair, and
with her usual avidity of thought arranged
AL impromptu program, which consisted in
addresses interspersed with appropriate
songs and prayers, touching home and for
eign missionary work. The most interest
ing features of the meeting were the open
ing address BY Or. G. W. Farrar, Sr., and an
essay by Prof. C. L. Ebaugh-the essay had
been prepared for such an occasion in an
other place some time ago, but as "A good
story is none the worse Of being twice told"
it was brought into requisition and rendered
with good effect at this time. The paper
contains gleanings of rich thought and was
listened to with great interest and apprecia-
ton. The friends who contributed to the
success of the meeting have the thanks of
the Society and cordial invitation to attend
and participate in similar meetings to be held
III the future. SECRETARY.

Sunday School Convention.

ANNAPOLIS, Mo-, March 20, 1883.
The Iron County sabbath school Associa-
ton met in the public school building.
The President being absent, the meeting
was called TO order by Vice President Chas.
Ii. Collins.
Hymn No. 2229-'I Will Sing of My Re-
deemer''-wa> sung, and prayer was offered
by Rev. \. w. Wright
Hymn No. 235-"1he Gospel Bells"-was
then sung; after which the programme ar
ranged for the occasion was taken up in or
der, the first topic being "lAims and Results
of the $. ). Convention" Discussed by Rev
\. w. Wright, DR.. L. May, Mr.. J. Markham
and Mrs. DIR. MAY. The addresses indicated
that the aims of the Convention are to pro-
mote the Sunday school work, by stimulat-
ing and urging workers to faithfulness and
diligence, and to induce others to engage
with them in the important cause-planting
schools in destitute Iegions, and seeking to
save souls in every locality. And while the
results have not Yet been all we desire, pro-
gress is indicated in the increased interest in
such meetings, the establishing of new schools
and vitalizing old ones.
The second topic, "What is the Relation of
the Community to the $. So" was next con-
sidered: arguments being presented by r. A.
Cisrkson, j. W. Bergman, DR.. E. May, Mrs.
understanding: do not drag; keep good time;
have al sing.
'Punetuality-its meaning and values was
presented by DR.. May, and the discussion of
the topic WIS participated in by Mesdames
Fairchild and May and Messrs. GARRISON and
Collins. The gist of thought was that pune
fuality means not only to be on time when
you do attend Sabbath school, but he ALWAYS
there. Do not miss. As to the value of it,
success depends upon il i'm this ~ in ordin-
AIRY business affairs.

Ed. Hcqist0r-PerhapS a few items from

one of your ju>tly-e>teemed citizens TO our
place has suggested 10 my mind the propri-

the death of one of our much-loycd ladies
Mrs. Harrison, the sister of Or. Gupton, who
a few months ago moved from Scott county
To this place, to get the benefit of the school
for his own and his sisters children. Mr..
Harrison ha- been an invalid for nine Years,
and had learned TO bear her affection with
Christian fortitudc: and during her short
residence here has made many warm friends,
who will mourn her loss.
| regret Ia say, also. that NeSsrs. Mari and
Logan, two highly esteemed citizens OF Iron
eoUntr, who also moved here "a few months
since for school privileges. are both very
sick, and it Is feared that they may not re-
cover.
Our community has been more than usual
~ afflicted this winter. Indeed, old citizens
say they have rarely if ever seen is much
sickness in one winter.

upon the necessity of teachers being taught
OF Christ, without which they could not ef-
fectually teach others.
The subject of Early training, at home

Convention met pursuant TO adjournment,
Vice President Collins in the chair.
Devotional exercises occupied the time
until 10 O'Clock, when the topic, GLOW shall

the Sabbath Schools" came up for discussion.

A committee was appointed to prepare =
programme for the annual convention to be
held on first Wednesday in August. The
Association then took recess until $50 p. NJ.
THE EVENING SESSION
was opened with soug and PRAYER, and the
topic for the evening, 1.-THE relation of the ;.
$. to the temperance cause," was presented.
4 good foundation for the argument was laid
i'm the address of DIR. May, and built upon by
Revs. Bergman, Wright and Hopkins
showing among other things that the use of
ardent spirits is hurtful to man; that physi-
clans are awakening to this truth and dis
carding it from their practice; that temper
ance is Christian virtue, and Il fruit OF the
Spirit therefore should be taught in Sunday
schools; that the young should be educated
to diseountenance this evil; and many other
kindred thoughts'were advanced.
The Committee on Programme presented

be published next week.-ED. REGIsTERl.
After some pleasant expressions on the
part of citizens of Annapolis. and represen-

yice-President Collins not being permitted
vention, Mr.. j. E. Low, of Cross Roads, was
chosen to act i'm his stead.
1.-The value of teachers meetings" was in
terestingly argued by Rev. Wright, Mrs. May,
Mrs. Wright, Mrs. Fairchild and others.
"a model teachers meeting" was then held
by Mr.. Markham, who formed the audience
into class, and using the international les
son for March 18th Ia review of the lessons
of the last quarter), proceeded to question In
turn each member of the class. 1t is sur
prising to find how much we don't know
when we place ourselves in the attitude Of
learners. This was certainly one Of the re-
suits of the "Model Teachers Meeting"
The important matter of "How to estah-
lish and maintain schools in destitute plsc-
esq was the considered by Revs. Wright and
Bergman and Mr.. Low and others. 1t was
thought by the speakers that, in order to
succeed in such work, much elf-denial must
be practiced, and some of us must be willing
to forego our pleasant privileges and take up
the arduous duty of planting Gospel schools
in destitute regions. Some expressed
willingness to enter upon such work.
In the line of miscellaneous business"
Wright, Rev. Hopkins, Mr.. Low and Mr..
Collins. Gleanings from the field indicated
the prosperity of the work. Mr.. Collins
spoke encouragingly of the Des Arc school;
the year had witnessed the conversion OF Il
number of their pupils. Annapolis school
was referred to by Supt. X. 4. GARRISON, as
being in prosperous condition; some had
been converted, and some were enquiring the
way of life. Fort Hill school was said. by
Mrs. Fairchild, to be pressing On through
discouragements, and hoped for good re-
suits. South Belleview Presbyterian-Re-
ported by Mr.. Low, that they have estab-
lished Bible school since the session of the
Convention in that place, and it promised
success. Mention was made of prosperous
schools in the Baptist and Methodist Church
e. at Cross Roads, also one at Cedar Grove,
neither of which were represented. Mrs.
Meyers reported the Episcopalian and Mrs.
Wright the Presbyterian schools in Ironton.
The Methodist school in Ironton was also
said to be in Il Furnishing state, though not
represented in the Convention. Miss Mary
Hayden spoke in the interest of Pilot Knob
school, and Mr.. Wright referred to the new
school at Graniteyille. Mr.. Weast stated that
a summer school had been conducted at Fui-
can, but was now closed for the want Of some
one to conduct it. Miss Maria Russell told
Of the difficulties of the Ozark school, which
had suffered from want of place to assem-
BILE: but is still in existence, holding its SEES
sions III private house. A school had been
organized on East Fork, and continued for
u time; but is now broken up. Tidings were
received of a new school at Mayberry Hol-
low-conducted by Mr.. Dace. The Zion
Methodist school was favorably spoken of
by Mr.. Markham.
Session then adjourned to meet at 9o'clock
A.. NJ. tomorrow.
