Mr.. 90 and 90. Say Louis. how
can you empty your barrels 90

Our swsmpers say that the
prospect of a float this year is very
gloomy, and as the season is we'll
advanced, they are not expecting
any float at all. The mills will
have to use only pull boat timber,
and this means high price lumber.

The demolisling of the ruins in
the cemetery has commenced, and
in short time they will all have
disappeared, but it looks Is if the
grass is growing most luxuriantly.
and to keep it down with the hoe,
will require much labor.

Work on Mr.. Ferdins and Forte,
brick building will commence next

feet high, and the floor will be

be quite an improvement for this
corner.

We are Of opinion that if . good
steam brick plant was TO be put ir
operation here, it could furnish
bricks for building purpose thai
would make building in brick al
most az cheap as lumber. Hal
any one who has experience II
brick making given this matter
any serious thought?

DEGREES IN HEAVEN AS WELL AS IN HELL, THE SUB- JECT OF MIR. MARTINS Sermon at the First Baptist Church
 Last Night to Full
 House.

Evangelist Martin preached on the subject of Degrees in Heaven as Well as in He'll" last night to an au- iience that filled the First Baptist church. Before preaching the evan gelist announced that because many people misunderstood Baptists in re- gard to close communion, thinking that they mean that other people were not real Christians, and that, there fore, the Baptists were narrow minded and bigoted, he would show the bible teaching about it Sunday morning; that Sunday night he would show the harm of card playing and dancing and why all churches opposed them; and that next Monday night the subject would be "The Unpardonable Sin" He then annuonced his text Cor ginthians 3:11-15, and said:
 T do not see how a man can intel Hgently worship God who does not see that the bible teaches degrees in he'll that people will be punished diff ferently; for Gods word says plainly that it shall be more tolerable for some than for others that some shall receive the greater damnation' than others. And I cannot see how a man can at all understand his bible who does not see that it teaches just as strongly degrees in heaven. Jesus says He that believenth on me hath everlasting life He also says, Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven; that every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labor. Paul says in the text that other foundation can no more lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. That saves man. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life Then he says, If any mans works abide which he hath built thereupon he shall receive reward. If any mans works shall be burned, he shall suf- fer loss, but he himself shall be saved yet so as by fire My saliva. tfon is made sure to me by Christ having died for my sins, and my ac- cepting Him as my Savior; my record will be exactly according to the way I serve God. And in this matter of reward God puts the poor man and the ignorant man on a level with the rich man, for He rewards for faithful ness and not for success. Jesus said the woman who gave two mites-less than three-fifths of a copper cent-all she could give-had done more than all the rest, though many gave much. But, brother first make sure of heaven. and then even if your works are burned up, you shall be saved; and you can be sure, for God says. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved. and that makes t sure

THE NINTH REGIMENT.
ONE OF THE OLDER FIGHTING BODIES
SERVICE IN THE CIVIL WAR.

In the early days of the last century the Oil
GERS for the State militia organizations Were
appointed by a council of appointment oi
which John jay was president for a long time
Under his administration officers were appointed
for the 9th Regiment OF infantry. having ST.
teen companies This was in March, lSoo Inc
9th Regiment was attached to General BOYD
brigade until April s, 1873, when it was trans
ferred to the First Brigade of artillery and its
name changed to the 2d Regiment of artillery.
The designation of infantry, cavalry or artI-
lery was a matter of form only. because all
regiments contained all three arms OF the ser
vice although the majority were known as artll-
lery regiments. Another pecullarity OF the
militia organization was the duplication of mum
bers. This made 1t necessary to add the name
Of the city or county in order properly To lden-
tify the regiment This confusion reached It's
climax in 1872 and orders were issued on June
l3 of that year directing the REMEMBERING of the
New-York City regiments This was done by
lot and in the lottery the ID Artillery. which
had been the 9th Infantry. became the 9th
Another 9th Regiment had existed in Columbia
County and was called the I'D Claverack- To
distinguish the New-York 9th from any other
similarly numbered regiment it was known by
the name National Cadets" and Simon Fl"it
