",rhe Plan of the Ages"

About year ago we noticed the intro
duction of this remarkable book upon the
book market of this section. 1t was then
In it's twenty fifth thousand. 1t is now
in its ninetieth thousand Any work
upon the coming Millennium awakens Gu
riosity, but one exhibiting such untiring
patience, such persistent research in con-
nection with it, cannot fail to be deeply
interesting. Some of the analogies are
very startling, and the whole work, not
only in It's plan, but in it's conclusions,
shows the work of mind independent to
the highest degree. 1t is needless to say
that it is deeply religious work and ami
mated by the highest spirit of Christiani-
ty. 1t is on sale at Olivier's book store,
and the Tower Publishing Company which
is sending 1t out to the world has put it
at the low price of Is cents.

The Corn Crop of the County.

Reports from every section of the coun-
ty agree that there is now growing the
most promising crop of corn that Angus
ia has seen for many years. 1t is good
even upon thin land, but where the land
is in good condition the corn is splendid
in it's luxuriant growth, the crop being just
now, however, in its crisis, well tasselled
and shooting. An old and observant
farmer remarked the other day, "Augusta
has made fine crop Of wheat, a tolerable
crop of hay, fair crop of oats, and with
a few more rains will turn out an enor-
nous crop Of corn" One Of those good
rains fell Monday, since that remark was
made, so we are another step nearer to
the splendid crop predicted, and the
"bone and sinew" of the land wear smiling
faces.
