On Saturday last one would have thought
the rabbit and partridge laws were both out,
had they heard the shooting in the direction

hunting. Should these parties be caught
they will have the full benefit of the law
melted out to them.
The protracted meeting, which has been in
progress here for two or more weeks, closed
on Thursday last. This meeting, so far as
we can see, was success, as the church was
quickened and one young lady protessed faith

time the meeting closed. We think no
ministers could possibly have labored more
zealously than these ministers did There is
scarcely family in the community they did
not visit, and all doors were opened to them.
The congregations have not been larger for
years, and we noticed persons present that
have not attended church for several years,
except on funeral occasions. Other appoint
ments were well represented.
