sGlf-heard our new preacher, Rev. w

aiRl enjoyed his earnest, able, and ring
ing discourse on "Take heed what Cane
how YOU hear" He is a very cOnSecl Il
It'd minister, and sheds the splend q
ra,liance of his conservation on his en-
ire congregation. This charge Seems
greatly pleased with him and his

to our town socially. Culleoka always
gets good preacher, through the efforts
of our venerable Rev. w. III. Wilkes

mother-in-law, Mrs. f. A. Burke, moved

bless yOuv' The entire family will be
missed, especially Misses Sue and Fora
who were two of the brightest stars il
our social circle. There were some car
ryings-on, appropriate to the occasion
at their departure.
Chail man Smiser spent Saturday and
Sunday here with his father and
mother. He SAYS he gave his best eff
forts for Democracy during the recent
battle, but he did not expect to II celVC
a Gaming before the jOlliticatiOn was
token of regard from his Democratic
friends.
Miss Maggie Hewlett returned to-day
from a three weeks stay with her aunt
near Brentwood. We are glad to hear
that her trip was beneficial to heI
health.
Mrs. w. r. PEBBLES, of Gallatin, is in
our village now. She came out to visit
relatives. and to see the family of h"I
brother, r.. \. Wilkes, ere they left toi
their Alabama home.
one of our friends, who was always a
Democrat but who was lead astray by
tho Alliance and Mcdowell, says 1t has
been his painful duty to subsisT on
"crow'' for the past two weeks. lie
served in the army during the "iate UNI
nj asautneS~," and ate dead mule ano
dor; he was in prison aluOSt year anu
lived on rotten beef and flies, and hftel
such experiences, he says he was as " oil
prepared to eat crow as any man living
He did not "Say grace" over his feast
neither did he return thanks; and, now
that he thinks he has been sufficiently
punished, he begs some kind friend tC
send him a buZZard or pole cat to take
the bad taste out ofhis mouth. Next time
he ill not wobble on the gudgeon, but
will stick to Democracy. We trust that
that revival in Columbia will extend
III 5 far. We know of several nice men
who fell into the snare Mcdowell and
his set laid for them, that we would like
to see recOnverted, baptized and taken
back into the church, We fear there
are some, however, who are "wedded
to their iiOI," a Il still think that he is
the greatest man living-thaL h4 is
creator than General Jackson, st. Pat
tricks day-in thr-mnrning, Old Grant
or tho Fourth of July. They forget that
in,iples are everything are
agents or clogs. NERNA NILLIERs.
