The eleven paid preachers and
pastors of this town should feel very
much rested, or roasted, as the evan.
gelists come around and assume
their work. We hope the present
one may do great good, and that the
seed sown may stick and grow into
sturdy, everlasting life, and not be
the infatuation of a moments talk.
At the same time, it should be un-
derstood, that where religion is, or
should be, it is not in the nature of
circus, for people to run to with
idle curiosity and gaze upon.

Departed this life on Monday
morning, May 5, DR.. j. T. Harris,
aged 38 years. He was man of no.
BILE principle and deep intellectual
power. He possessed mind cult
waited with useful knowledge, and
was held in the highest esteem by
every one, not only in his immediate
neighborhood, but throughout the
community. He had been in a de-
Ginning state of health for years, and
on Tuesday night he was taken with
severe attack of pneumonia, and
never rallied. During the few days
of his illness lie bore his sufferings
with christian fortitude. He told
his friends he WAS ready to go, and
when the end came be gently fell
asleep in Jesus without sigh. One
less in his beautiful home, one more
in his Saviour's kingdom. Every
thing known to the medical profess
sion was done for his relief, but all
to no purpose. He was an efficient
member OF the Jr. o. U. A. NJ, which
order attended in body to pay the
last tribute of respect to their broth
er. His remains, followed by large
concourse of relatives and friends,
were inferred in the Falling Waters
