Saratoga, y. Y, Sept. 2l.---The national
conference OF the Unitarian and other
churches was called TO order today, by the
president OF the association, United States

Chairman OF the council, Rev. NJ. J. Saw
age, D., OF New York, read the address
presenting the subjects TO come before
the conference. Many pressing and impor-
tant appeals for aid in organizing new
churches had 10 be turned away FOR lack
of funds. The greatest hinirsnce 10 the
multiplication of Unitarian churches, said
the address. is the spread OF Unitarian doc
trines in other churches.
White rejoicing in the spread OF Cnits-
rian ideas. we must protest for Intellectual
honesty. There are too many who remain
in churches whose doctrines they repudi-
ate: too many preachers who declare in
their sermons what IS contradicted IN the
creeds OF their churches"

LETTER FROM FAUQUIER.

| Correspondence of the Alexandria GazetteI
the mother the two young men, Messrs.
James aud Johu Ellis, died this morn
ing. She was in an unconscious Coz
dition from the time of the death
Of her son james up to her death,
which occurred as above ststed. Mrs.
Ellis was woman of sterling charac-
| ter, and loved by all who knew her.
She was good neighbor aud friend.
She was not a professor of religion.
Her husband, who is now nearly eighty
years old, survives her. His home is
indeed a sad one. Two SONS and his
bosom companion for mora than fifty
years all taken from him in less than
nineteen days. He, with his surviving
son and daughter, has the sympathy
of the entire community.
In every family iu this section Of
country there are sick ones; in fact there
are scarcely enough in good health TO
care for and nurse the sick.
Mr.. Dolphus Morris's youngest child
was buried yesterday.
A cloud of gloom, indeed, hangs over
our community.
Mr.. john e. Quarles, one of our most
efficient teachers. has been confined to
his bed for several weeks and his wife,
who is second to none as teacher, has
been teaching his school iu his stead,
until she, too, was stricken down with
the grip and both are now confned to
their beds.
Some of our schools have been 80
crowded that in two instances assistants
had to be appointed.
