We had preaching here to-day by Rev.
Brooks. There was a large congregation and
the best behavior we haye ever seen; for
some of the young folk have been in the
habit of going out in time of church and dis
turbing the preacher, and also them that
went for the good of preaching. We think
Mr.. Brooks will do good at this place, for
the people all seem to like him and he takes
a great interest in the School. That has
been very much needed here for a long time.
They have an organ in their school here now
that is great help to the singing.
We are talking some politics down here.
War broke out yesterday in our little town.
we are sorry to say. But the good Lord
smiled on it and never lost a single man. 1
think by next Saturday we will get at least
one half pints of Pate's best and all get on
the warpath. I will give no names this time,
but if ever witness another such sight I
will expose them to the public, for think
such conduct is disgrace to the community.
They gave strawberry festival at Peter
Hinkles' not long since and had nice time,
except the three young men that went with
out any partner and had to pay double for
their strawberries, because they could not
get them any partner.

THE SUPREME COURT,
Bits ofNIediBval Etiquette Resurrected TO
the Benefit of This Body.

Bits ofNIediBvaI Etiquette Resurrected for
the Benefit of This Body.
The assembling of the Supreme
Court at Washington on the second
Monday in October is always the oc-
casion of the beginning of the cere.
monial courtesies, which are annually
exchanged between the coordinate
powers of the Government. The Chief
Justice and Associates, in their robes
of office, take their seats upon the Su-
preme bench and begin their sessions.
After preliminary directions as to the
commencement of business the court
adjourns. Having laid aside their
robes the Court in body, attended by
its own officers and accompanied by
the Acknowledgement and the Solicitor
General, proceed to the Executive
Mansion and, being formally an
nounced, are received by the President
in the audience parlor. The Chief
Justice congratulated the President
upon his appearance and good health.
After the Associates in turn present
their compliments, the Court retires.
J. would then be custom to leave a
card at the residence of the Vice-Presi-
dent, that high functionary being ex-
officlo chief officer of the upper body
of Congress, the second coordinate
branch of the Government. Tue Presi-
dent never returning call in form,
except that of sovereign, ruler of a
country or member of a royal family
visiting Washington, does not return
the call of the Court. During the sea-
son, however, it is custom for him to
give state dinner in its honor.
The Vice-President or President pro-
tempore of the Senate, if in the city,
or within reasonable time after his
return, leaves return card at the resi-
dence of the Chief Justice. This in
troductory ceremonial occasion is fol-
lowed by calls of etiquette among the
members of the court and their ladies
in society, the Associates first calling
upon the Chief Justice and then junior
upon senior Justices, return calls be-
ing made in the same order of preced-
ence The ladies of the court are at
home on Mondays during the season,
at which time persons in social rela-
polite society may call, the dress on
GuSSc OcCdSiOuS UeIHS
street costume. These Mondays at
home give rise to general movement
in social circles, followed by round
of courtesies in advance of the rush of
gayety in fashionable life, which comes
late during the Congressional and Adj
ministration seasons. The code of
etiquette of the Supreme Court circle
was founded on the early social prac-
tees of the old school of manners
established by the first President and
his wife and incorporated into the
social regime of the court by its first
Chief Justice. The pre-eminent public
services of John Jay and the high
social inheritance and accomplishments
of his wife, daughter of William Liv-
ingston, of the distinguished colonial
family of that name. gave the first Of
fetal and social environments of the
judicial circle, degree of dignity and
prominence which has been maintained
through the seven succeeding eminent
jurists who have worn the ermine of the
Chief Justice.-M 7. Home Journal

Ed. Register-Sometime since L applied to
the railroad company, through Vice-Presi-
dent Clark, to donate to us lot for par
sonage. At the same time l suggested a
certain location, but stated that we would
gratefully appreciate anything that they
would do for us. am now very happy TO
say that they have not only given us parcel
of ground for our house, but the lot which
they have donated is notably eligible and
beautiful, and it is in every respect more
desirable than the one had suggested. The
company have no better lot than the one
they have so kindly given us, and the fact
that it is only few feet from great foun-
tain of pure and never-failing water adds
greatly to its permanent value. Such kind
ness should never be forgotten. For my
own part am more grateful than 1 can ex-
press. L. PULIIAM.
