A Wonderful Revival,

A WONDERFUL Revival,
A pentecostal meeting was held
in Miller's Cove, which closed some
days ago. The TIMES was prom
ised a full statement of that Won
derful meeting but 1t failed to ma
terialize. The meeting was begun
by a Primitive Baptist preacher
and was continued by ministers Of
other churches until a large per
cent, Of the non-religious people Of
the Cove was converted. BY a
letter from Mrs. Wilson OF Mt. Ne
DO, we take the following extract.
She says:
"This meeting is said to exceed
all they have ever had. Some who
have been considered hopeless
made profession. On Christmas
morning the new converts met at
Alvin Walkers and marched to
the church, sixtv.oue in all. There
were sixteen couples Of husbands
and wives. Mrs. Wright said ii
was the most beautiful sight she
ever saw. There are very few left
in the Cove who have not made a
profession"
The TIMES is pleased to make
mention of this great event in Mil
ler's Cove and trusts that all these
men and women, boys and girls
will hold out faithful to the end
This religion is worthy of the con
sideration of all persons, as "Godli
ness is profitable in all things, hav
ing promise of the life that now il
and of that which is come"

the Court to take some steps look

It will be seen from the foregoing
that the expenses of the County
for the year 1889, have been unusu-
ally large. This can be accounted
for in the building of an asylum
for the Poor at a cost of nearly
$500; the more than ordinary ex.
penses incident to the Jail, the
number of prisoners for the year
having been greater than at any
time for several proceeding years,
the single item OF board being $500
more than last year; also, the long
continued term of our September
term of the Circuit Court with its
attending expenses; the cost Of
Jurors over last year being $500.
There are various other items of
expenses greater than the proceed
ing year, such as Bridges Roads
and Blank Books.

of Mr.. Rasb are superior to those of his
