HaltQu 1fams.

Mr.. Berry Lewis, an aged and very
highly esteemed citizen of this County,
died at his home about two miles distant
;from zRelton, on Wednesday, July 10Th.
His body was buried the next day after
his death in the Bolton cemetery, Dr..
Chas. Manly, the pastor, preaching the
sermon and conducting the funeral SER
vices, in the presence OF many sorroWing
relatives and friends. Mr.. Lewis was the
father of our esteemed Itownsman, Mr.. r..
"a. Lewis, Of the 3. A: Lewis Il Co. We
tender our coincidence to the bereaved rel
atiYes. But we sorrow not as those who
have no hope, for we have reason to be-.
/ lEeve this father in Israel is with his God.
Rev. j. T. Smith preached at the Belton
Baptist Church last Sunday night, the
pastor, DR., Manly, being absent to assist
in the ordination Of Rev. Mr.. Parish, the
assistant pastor of the Anderson Baptist
Church.
"A series Of religious meetings lasting
for several days at Meals Creek Church,
was closed last Sunday. The pastor was
assisted by Rev. r. w. Seymour, Of Wal.
halla, and Rev. w. NJ. Pinson, of this
County. Many christians were revived,
several converts were made, and on Sum
day morning three happy young ladies
followed their Saviour into the baptismal
waters. It is to be hoped that much good,
that will tell in time and eternity, will re.
suit from this series of religious services.
The Sunday school Convention of the
co1ored Baptists of this section, convened
with the Belton oolored Baptist Church
last Friday, and the exercises continued
from day to day until Sunday. There
were many delegates and visitors present.
The good citizens of Bolton and its vi
cinity seem to be determined to have O
good, comfortable school building in the
near future. This is Belton's greatest
need. Let every one within reach of this
school assist in the laudable enterprise.

place fell last Saturday. f.,4

Chronicles OF the Kingdom.

am sorry to chronicle the feable health
of Miss Bette Smith, our efficient teacher
Of the Melton Academy. She resumed her
school two weeks ago, and before she had
entirely recovered from severe spell Of
fever, and we learn she has relapsed and
was not able to take charge this morning.
Fears are entertained that she will have to
give up the school altogether. She has the
profound sympathy of our entire commu-
nifty and the news Of her sickness casts q
gloom over the Kingdom.
T. T.-Wakefeld wears the belt and is our
sunnyest and funniest as we'll as our hap.
piest man. It is girl of 8 avoirdupoise,
but it never can be as sweet as little Willie.
Well, we have had fine rains and crops
are looking fine, especially corn. Among
those who has the finest corn is Joe Hack
et. If no disaster befalls the crop Joe will
make corn enough to do him until the
next centennial, and now don't you forget
it. His cotton will not bear slander.
George and John called at the Mansion
few days ago for the purpose, as they
said, of congratuiating me. They had
heard and believed that I was married,
but alas, didn't.
The general health of the Kingdom is
good. True, there are signs of political
fever, but it seems to be of mild type.
People generally believe that it will be
raging this time next year. do hope I
will not take 1t, as it always goes hard
with me. fear at my time of life I could
not stand such spells as I have had. ]
tell you dread it.
/ see the farmers are pretty we'll satisfied
that they will get six cents for their best
cotton. But they should remember
s.When fortune froWns We may with hope
get tipsey, but when she smiles beware
the hattering gypsey." SHANKs.

Popiar Spring Itemg,

Miss Mamie Warren's: school at this
place closed on Friday, the oath ult. This
was the first year of the school, and its sue
cess has been hattering, indeed. Miss
Warren's careful training of her pupils
shows her to be teacher 10 the truest
sense of the term. One could not visit the
school and fail to see evidence of the thor.
ough work going on there. It was with
pleasure the patrons and friends gathered
at the school house to witness the closing
exercises. The regular school work had
been interrupted but short time in pre-.
pairing we'll arranged program which was
carried out with success. We will not
send the program, Mr.. Editor, as you are
kindly furnished with one already. On
Saturday the teacher returned to her home
at Pendleton, carrying with her the good
wishes of her pupils, patrons and of the
many friends she has Won during her stay
among US. It is hoped that Miss Warren's
services may be secured for another year,
for she now seems to be really the sine qua
now in our midst.
Rev. Thomas Seigler is conducting q
series of meetings at this place. It has
been proposed to organize a Baptist Church
here in the near future.
Mr., Clarence McLin, who recently came
to visit his father, has returned to bis
home in Georgia.
One of our modest young bachelors has
hinted that he is looking for wife and
needs some one to help him find her.

A Liberal Proposition.

Who has not heard of that paragon Of
family papers, the enterprising and popu-
lar weekly Detroit Free Press. For gener-
alton its name has been q household word
and has become synonym for all that is
excellent, pure and elevating in journalism.
1t is delightfully."- entertaining, without re-
sort to cheap sentimentalins, instructive
without being prosy or pedantic. Conn
bining the literary qualities Of the expen-
sive magazine with the bright, breezy
characteristics of the newspaper, it leaves
nothing to be desired by the average read
er. 1t is looked upon as welcome visitor
by every family who reads It, while thou
sands regard it as Indispensable and would
on no account go without 1t. An enormous
circulation of l25, 900 copies per week at.
tests its wonderful popularity. Recog.
nizing the fact that there are those who
are unfamiliar with it's surprising merits
as home paper, the publishers offer to
send The Free Press to them for the balance
of this year lover FIVE months) for only 30
cents-a club of four for $1.00 or club Of
ten for $2.OC. All our readers should sub.
scribe at once Sample copies free.

Andersonville Items.

The dry weather is thing of the past
in this section, and with no other disaster
to visit the crops, the farmers may expect
q soodly harvest this fall. Corn is very
promising at this TIME, and cotton has
come out wonderfully in the Last two
weeks.

best young men, is visiting relatives IN

Katie, of Maysville, Ga, have been visit

A party of young people-Vickerys, Nc.
Mullins, Sanders and others, of Hart
County, Ca, passed this place yesterday
on their return from two weeks tour
through the mountains. They seemed
highly pleased with their trip.
Rev E. N. Estes, the pastor, assisted by
Rev. VIII. King, will begin protracted
meeting at this place the End Sunday in
August. Itis to be hoped they will have
good meeting: and much good be accom-.
plished. ,ss;-
The farmers are through work and vis-
the order of the day. With good health,
good crops they are happy as the day is
long.
We would suggest that the County
Commissioners visit the Fork and see the
condition of the public highways. There
has not been any work done on the roads
the present year, and in some places they
are in very bad condition. WACO.

A Trip to the Country.

MEssRs. EDITORS had the pleasure
last week of visit to the country as far as
the lower edge of Savannah Township.
And going as I did one road and return.
ing another, gave me an opportunity OF
seeing considerable amount Of the farms,
etc. Cotton has come out wonderfully
since the rains, and at present bids fair to
make an average yield. The farmers
generally anticipate plowing 1t this week
# the weather admits. The corn crop,
with few exceptions that we noticed,
and especially on low-lands Is very prom.
ising, indeed.
The farms I noticed in; the vicinity OF
Hollands Store, as usual are up with the
best that I saw. No country affords bet
ter or more prosperous set OF people.
The leading topic was the price of cotton
and the Cowsn meeting, all being inter-
ested in the former, and considerable
number in the latter. From what I
learned, much interest has been mani.
tested from:the encement, the tent
being filled, at nearly every service. The
Rev: Mr.. Dunlap, of Augusta, Ca, is;as.
sisting Mr.. CoWan in the meeting. We
trust that much lasting good may be the
result.
Our young friend, Wilton r. Earle, is
teaching school at Ruhamah, and has o
good school. Tie patrons could not put
their children in better hands. If there is
one thing that VIC need more than any
thing else it is moral, sober, upright,
christian men and women at the head OF
our schools who, by their department.
both in the school room and out of 1t, will
bear the severest test. AS the twig is bent
80 the tree will grow. The future of the
country depends largely on the training
of the rising generation, and my humble
opinion is that all teachers certificates
ought3 to be revoked whose character is
not boVe suspicion. ALEXIS.
