CufleOka,

The second quarterly meeting for this
station, February 24th, was a time of
wind ard cold and other diSagreeable
atmospheric disturbances. PreSidin Q
Elder, r. K. Brown, did not arrive until
the afternoon. as he was "boOked" to
preach at Flowers Chapel the day be
or and the morning of the 9th. Rev.
j. G.. Bolton filed his pulpit as usual in
the forenoon, and did some good preach
ing from John, 18th chapter, Both verse.
DIR. Brown preached at night. We like
him so much, we are sorry we can't
have monthly quarterly meeting. He
appeals to the church member whose
foot is not firm upon the rock, as well as
to the sinner and his sweet humaneness,
like warm gulf stream, "melts them
from their lev anchors, and floats them
past the tide of mortal to the sea of
heavenly love-" Enough of this; we do
not intend to ''moralize.
Quarterly Conference was held to-day
(MOnday) at the parsonage, in the pas
tors study.
On next Sabbath morning, Rev. Mr..
Gregory, a ministerial student in the
Culleoka Academy, will preach at the
Methodist church.
Our school is steadily increasing. Two
new bOarders came in last week, anOth-
er is expected to-day, and there are
more to follow.
Mr.. Frank Moore, Sr., has been very
sick for several days. He is some bet
tie : though not out of danger.
Mr.. Fred Patterson's little child is
quite i'll. At last accounts it was just
alive ami that was all.
Mrs. Henry King has been under the
weather, too, but not seriously so.
Miss - Grace, of Columbia, has been
visiting Misses Jennie and Dora Evins.
Frank Davis, the affable clerk at the
Bethel House, spent the latter part OF
last week with relatives and friends
here. Frank is a Culleoka boy, is self
made, and will prove to be, we hope, as
all self-made boys generally do, one Of
the very best of men.
Mr.. Green Ramsey has returned from
a pleasant trip to Alabama.
Messrs. w. III. Henderson and j. S.
COwden went to Columbia this morning
to attend to some business matters.
F. p. Witt, of Campbell's Station,
spent the Sabbath here. He says there
has been a war among the sable race in
his neighborhood. The battle ragged all
day long last Sunday, and was renewed
on Monday, but the white citizens
brought it to close, at least for while.
1t all started from one negro woman
whipping the child of another.
Mr.. Jim Duncan, of Marshall county.
shipped a car load of hogs from this
point to louisville, one day last week.
Mr.. Will Fulmer is back from Indi-
ana. On Friday he had shipped from
Louisville to this place car load Of
mules. Tho mules will be put OUT
during the Spring and Summer to be
frONen, ana In the T. all Will be fattened
for the market. Mr.. Fulmer formerly
lived in Indiana. He is a live, wide
awake fellow, just such men as we like
to catch-for citizens and neighbors
The ssCarmack Guards are still in
line, drilling twice a week. They do
some good work on the double time and
other movements, but need more riri
discipline on their carriage. They should
hold themselves erect, thus LOOKING
more soldier like.
Oh, no! Madeline" we do not think
You are fated to be an old maid. The
right fellow just hasn't come along vet
When he does, and asks you to be his
for "besser or wusser.' you'll stick your
finger in your mouth and blushinglv
say, al spec WILL" and you'll yank
him in.
Thanks to "Vivian" for giving US "the
cake"
We will close by giving you a small
item of natural history" Last Satur-
day, while hunting on the premises of
Mr.. p. II. Hughes, Mr.. Cord Jones kill
ed a very large, yellow rabbit, of bright
beautiful color, with white spot on its
breast. It was quite curiosity to u.s.
We had frequently seen white and gray
rabbits, but never so much as heard of
a yellow one before. 1t was q pity il
was not captured alive, as 1t would have
