Firing Steamship Furnaces.

The furnaces of the great English
steamers on the Atlantic are fired sys-
telnatically and on signal. Each fire.
room is in charge of a foreman, and at
the stroke of bell each furnace is fired,
whether it needs coal or not. The fur
nances are crammed full TO the very
crowns, and the firings occur as fast as
they can be managed. 1t is about 90 min
utes from the time furnace is fired be-
fore its turn comes round again. The
boilers are doube-ended. that is, fired
from both ends, and the system is such
that full furnace is opposite to a red-hOt
furnace, so that the gas given of by green
fuel is iRnited in the middle connection
by the blaze, or intense heat Of the glow
ing furnace opposite it in the same boiler.

BreakA in the ogoecheo Canal.

The work Of repairing the Ogeechee
canal at GOuld's pond is progressing
rapidly. The break in the banks at this
point is the largest that has ever occurred
since the canal was constructed, the
water washing out the bottom in one
place to the depth of eight feet. The
work of repairing was somewhat DELAYED
by the continued rains, but for the past
week fifty men have been engaged in re-
building the banks under the direction Of
Capt. Frank Blair, President of the COM
pany, who has remained at the break
from the time the work begun until Satur-

DR.. AtHcus @. Haygood at Trinity
Methodist Church.

DE-, AtHcus q. HaygoOd at Trinity
Methodist Church.
Rev. DR.. A. G. Haygood, of Oxford,
filled the pulpit OF Trinity NJ. E. church
yesterday morning. The congregation
was very large, and after the sermon the
members of the church partook OF the
sacrament. The sermon was on the sub
Iect of salvation.
Everybody recognizeg the difference
between trust In person and belief in u
doctrine" said the preacher. 1--WE are
not saved through our belief about Christ
but by Christ. Jesus does not in
any word OF His give us doctrine or the
Dry about Himself. or even the character
Of His work. He does not intimate that
we are saved by believing this or that
about Himself. What did the leper be-
lieve who threw himself at the SaviOur's
feet and asked to be made clean? Did he
believe IN the doctrine OF Precipitation?
No, but in the person at whose feet he
was kneeling, and that He was strong
and able to save.
could the woman in Slmon's house
have made an argument from the Old
Testament to establish the Messi aaship?
She believed in Him personally. He had
been good to her and had encouraged her.
She was a woman of the town. and the
cars Vi luc City were Closed I'd uefs der
sisters to-day might as we'll be IN the
Congo valley as within 90 yards Of
Methodist church. 1t is the
same way in this city. She hoped to be u
woman again.
sit was not any theory about Christ that
the diving thief believed in when on the
cross, but in Him In person. There is not
q man, woman or child, who doubts the
business Of the law under which we were
created and live. The worst man would
not change 1t.
sit is fearful thing IN make fetish OF
| the cross aud to speak OF the blood as a
| sort OF charm. Christ, who was the only
man that was ever on the earth who knew
| anything about the origin OF evil, never
| discussed it, but only the end and the re-
! suit OF evil. Paul said he was saved
! through faith, not for faithY"
! Or. HaygO0d WAS announced to speak
at the A. NJ. e. church on New street last
/ night.

according to our correspondents, from the
expected fair average WELD last month,

failure, as was indicated last month. The

In Alabama the weather since sept. p
is stated to have been between fair and
bad, so far as the development of the
growing crop was concerned. The pros
poets of TOP crop are set down as bad,
and distinct decrease is shown from
the prospects Of month ago, when fair
average crop was expected to be gath
cred. The weather for picking is set
down as between fair and bad, and the
total amount picked by Nov. VIII prob
ably equal 70 per cent. Like IN the pre-
cedlng State, heavy rains are credited
with producing very bad state of things,
rust, shedding and rOtting of bolls taking
place IN many counties. The crop is said
TO be moving on fairly quick, the very
low price causing planters to hold their
cotton when possible. The probable yield
IN lint is placed at about 1 pound to So
OF seed cotton.
In South Carolina the damage by
drought In August and September was
supplemented in October, in many coun-
ties, bv rains during the picking season,
which had an INJURIOUS effect, suspending
picking and causing general deterlorn-
ton IN quality TO some extent. The pros
poets in September OF top crop being
gathered We're bad. The present report
serves TO emphasize this. The weather
for picking, taking the State as a whole,
Is put down as about fair. The amount
picked is about 10 per cent.
