Tha New Methodist Preaoher.

People always turn out at the
first Sunday morning sermon of
the new preacher to see what sort
of clothes he wears, how long he
prays and breaches, whether he is
bald-headed, and to size him up
all around. The poor fellow runs
the gauntlet of the most cruel and
heartlessly critical inspection. The
Methodist church was full of such
people last Sunday morning. Sun
day night the same church was full
of people to hear a man preach.
Rev. Ben. F. Haynes is "a years old,
and has been preaching eleven
years. He is finely educated, pre-
else and faultless in expression,
without effort at oratorical brillian-
cy. He breaches in a conversation
al tone and commands his audience
from beginning to end. We have
it in mind to say more of him, but
it may not be in good taste. We
predict a great year for the church
in Pulaski. He is the complete
master of himself in the pulpit, as
well as of his audience, ana his
meekness is as conspicions as it is
unpretentious. The people are uni
versally pleased with our new
preacher.
The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1885-10-29

The farmers are very busy
gathering their crops and with two
more weeks of pretty weather the
most will be through. Notwith-
standing scarcity of seed wheat,
there will be good deal sown. The
failure in the crop this year has
caused the farmers to give more at
tention to the sowing of the seed,
and the result is the crop is being
put in in much better condition
this fall.
The people here are rejoiced
over the return of our pastor, Rev.
r. w. Seay, and while the past con-
ference year was a prosperous one,
yet if the deep interest and zeal
manifested by both pastor and peo-
Pile at the commencement speaks
anything for the present one, much
more good will be accomplished.
We have several to report on
the sick list this time: Mrs. Newt
Barnes is sick of fever; Mrs. John
Sisk has been very low with pneu
monia, and little child of Whit
McCracken has fever; Miss Addie
Watson is numbered with the sick
Matt Pitts who has been sick for
a long time is getting well.
DR.. Lancaster has torn down
his old residence and is building an
attractive mansion on the old site.
Mrs. Joe Harwell and Caroline
Houze and Mrs. Sallie Bass and her
son William visited Nashville last
week. Mrs. Bass and William have
returned. The others will spend a
week or two with their daughters,
Mrs. Baxter and Ed. Williams.
In our last we did injustice to
Dee and Ed Harwell's shingle fac
tory in saying it would cut one
thousand a day when we should |
have said ten thousand a day. They |
now have their machine so arrang- |
ed that they cut shingle any size
They have also made arrangements
TO handle handmade shingles.

Surnac.

On last Sunday Charley Par
sons was married to Miss De,
daughter of John Bond. The bri-
dial party on return heard a good
sermon at Mt. Zion Baptist church,
by Rev. Mr.. Stockton of Trinity,
Ala. From church they repaired to
the residence of the groom's father,
G. N. Parsons, where an excellent
and bountiful feast was enjoyed by
quite large number of relatives
and friends. The marriage was
solemnized y the resident preach
er, Rev. A. NJ. Eel, who has been
badly afflicted with cold and rheu-
matism for several weeks.
"A little daughter of Thos. Nc
Grew has had a protracted attack
of fever, but is at present consid-
cred cOnvalescing. Uncle Joe Par
sons, though badly and strangely
afflicted, was out at church last
Sunday. He has the worst swollen
ankles we ever saw.
Mrs. Lucinda Brown of Mar
shall county is trying the medical
properties OF Pigeon roost waters.
She is afflicted with dropsy and has
been sojourning with her brother
in-law, NJ. D. Ciaxton. Thirty five
years ago she lived here.
-Sammie, little son of the late
Esq. Parsons, fell a few days ago
and broke one of his arms.
The damage done to corn by
cut worms and drought is to a
great extent made up by abundant
fruit crop and mast. The woods
are in pretty lively mood. The
noise of falling acorns and chest
nuts, the playing of squirrels, &C.,
are things that we love as well as
we did in the halcyon days of
childhood.

Sell More Than You BuY.

The trees are laden with mast
and all kinds of nuts that grow
here. Everything that farmers
grow came well this year except
wheat, The fruit crop was magnif-
cent. Did you ever see as many
apples? Why should any one APP
prehend hard times in Giles? We
have plenty. The greatest draw
back we have is a market, or rath-
er the disposition to market. Hun
dreds of farmers waste or let spoil
many dollars worth of stuff which
ought to be marketed. We have
heard of farmers in Giles who made
it rule always when they came to
town to bring enough to sell to pay
for what they wished to buy and
always to carry more money home
than they brought in. It's a good
rule, and If our people with the
plenty they have now would adopt
it there would come to them man Y
hundred dollars for things that no W
rot or are thrown away.

nolnmhia District Items.

The district has twenty pastoral
charges. Therefore eighty quarterly
meetings. The travelling expense
is about $16S per annum. | receiv-
ed $1142 last year, $40 less than a
thousand with travelling expen ses,
There have been 1927 conversions
in the district during the year.
There wasa net gain of925 members.
We now number 6,525, besides the
membership of Cornersville and
Lewisburg which was added to the
district at the last conference. We
have built one good church at Lynn
vile; it is clear of debt and dedica-
ted TO the service of God. We have
repaired several others. Pisgah and
Bigbyville circuits have built each
a good parsonage, so the district
now has Ii parsonages-thirteen for
pastors, one for presiding elder.
Year before last we paid our
preachers $7,7S976; last year we
paid them $S,1S215. Yet some
wherein the district there were 1864
promised these preachers which
they will never receive. 1t was with
held from those who could least
afford it. Some charges paid their
paid their pastors in full, viz
Pulaski, Olivet, Diana, Culleoka,
Prospect, Pleasant Valley, Mt
Pleasant. The number will be
greatly, increased this year. The
great difficulty we have to contend
with is Indifferent officials. We
had last year AL. officials; sc of
them never attended a quarterly
conference during the year; I56 did
not attend more than one quarterly
only SO attended every
quarterly conference. Seven stew
ards neither collected nor paid a
dollar during the year Some have
used their influence against the
very institutions of the church
which they have soiemnly promised
God to support. But a great many
have promised amendment. God |

The Great Unanswerable speeob,

We furnish TO CITIZEN readers to-
day the great speech of Senator
jackson on the Blair bill. Nearly
three months have elapsed since its
delivery and its opposers have fall
en- back exhausted at any attempt
to answer it. 1t is absolutely un-
answerable and impregnable. The
passage of the Blair bill involves in
larger measure the welfare of our
people than any other issue of the
day and Senator jackson stands as
its champion in the south. His one
speech is worth whole term of
service. Let the people of Giles
read it carefully. The Senator did
not make the address for political
purposes, being invited to do so in
the interest of education, but he I'M
consciously laid ground for his re-
election and brought himself to the
very front in the list of great men
who are laboring for the common
good, and makes himself the leader
of sentiment that has in it the
greatest good for the southern peo-
nile.

Owing to the amount of fine
weather we have had for the past
few weeks, farmers are we'll along
with their crop gathering. Cotton
has been rapidly gathered in and
is turning out much better than
was expected. Wheat sowing is
progressing very well; a great many
have already finished sowing. The
acreage will be much less than
usual. Wheat growing has got to
be so uncertain in this section that
farmers are leaving it off to a great
extent, and will turn their attention
more to the raising Of stock and the
growing of cotton. Business of ev-
cry kind still remains very dull.

had his association and valuable
services for even so brief space of

now have to part with him. May
success attend his every field of
labor, is the desire of his many
admirers. There was preaching at
Lone Oak Saturday and Sunday
The new preacher will preach at

October at ii o'clock.
There are a great many in this
