Ed. Register.-I have been waiting for
something to "turn up" worthy of mention,
and since nothing of the kind has occurred
shall attempt-for L don't know that shall
be able-to give you what has been observed.
The farmers are very busiiy engaged plow
ing and "weeding corn" The dry weather
will, it is thought, damage wheat and oats
believe will be safe in saying-at least 10
per cent. Corn is looking extremely well,

The Methodist church that formerly exist
ed at Edge Hill has been re-establshed un

"We learn that great preparations are
making in the northwestern portion of Rey-
noldS county to have prOtracted sanctiti-
cation meeting. \ crank has been
holding monthly holiness meetings 4
in that section of this county and in Dent
county, and preaching the doctrine that they
that would be saved must be sanctitied i'll
both soul and body before they shall have
greatest excitement. Old members of the
| Baptist church, female members especially,
are said to he earnestly praying both day
| and night to be made to sin no more, and
! profess to believe that their prayers will be
heard. d."-Leyn0ldS Outlook.

| 1t is very strange that people of intelligence
Will tolerate such; that they are getting such
4 strong hold among those whoom we thOugkt

put too much confidence IN an unknown
| doctrine, as sequence they must suffer. A
necktie party should flourish among its lead
| erS.

HIhat Physiology" by Prof. J. B. Scott
