 The Sacred Harp Singers for many miles around began to gather early in the day and by 10 o'clock large number were present. both singers and spectators and the sing was In full. swing lasting until the 4:2o o'clock afternoon train was due.
 There are many methods and the bries relating to the training of the human voices and many opinions as to the length Of time best allotted to It's daily use. some arguing from as- teen minutes to longor perioda for practice, but the Sacred Harpists have discovered the art of keeping 1t up all day and anything short of this fails to brin on of their sings to perfection. They were ell here yesterday.
 W. H. Cooper. the reviser of the sa- cred Harp, which by the way. is q book containing the notes used in this particular method and the songs, was present and under his leadership as- sisted by many other leaders scarcely less efiicient, the halls of justice were for the nOnce made to echo with a harmony most complete and satisfac- tory.
 Ths sound was helped along by. the fact that the license for letting off cannon Ire crackers was on. but nothing disturbs the equanimity of the ai1-day singers and to the popping ac- compartment the music went merrily on
 Two little girls about six years of age took a turn at leading and show . ed by the exaetness of their beat and the tunefuines of their voices that they were to the "mannerbro." At the close the president of the convention. J. s. Carroll. made an at- tempt to resign his ofiice. but the singers would have none of it, they promptly reelected him for life, just as happens every year.
