DIAN CHURCH.
A letter from Gen. John Echols who
with Mrs. Echols, was in Montreal, Cana
da, last Monday, says:
81 heard the most prominent preacher here
preach last night. 1t was a sort of lecture that
he gave his people and was an account of a trip
that he had just had, lasting eight weeks and
extending to Colorado and return. 1t was
very interesting, and it was a little strange,
that should have heard him tell his people
of the beauties of the scenery along the Ches-
apeake & Ohio Railroad, and of the attractive
ness of the country as he crossed the Shenan-
doah Valley at Staunton. and of the impress
sion made upon him by the booming towns
along his route in Virginia. He was deli ght-
ed, and urged his people here to energy and
hopefulness.
