3RD QUARTELY CONFERENCE OFTHS mkthosist episcopal church HELD AT FLAT ROCK 20 AND 21. At an early hour last Saturday morning, in company with Mr. T.N. Crumpton, the editor left Ashland for Flat Rock church, over in Randolph county, near Almond postoffice, about eighteen miles poutbeast of this place, and after a pfeasant drive of a few hours, we arived at our desti nation in due time for the 11 o'clock a wva sci vices. Who should we see on driving up but that pieasant-faced, Christian gentleman, Rev.

J. L. Freeman, Presiding Elder of the An-niston District, whom to know him is to love him. The 11 o'clock sermon was preach ed by the Elder, taking for his text the 1st verse of the 12th chapter of Romans, and a mure sensible and instructive sermon we never heard. Alter the 11 o'clock sermon, dinner was announced.

Many having brought provisions along with them which was spread and everybody in vited to come farward and help themselves, and those who did not get their dinner that da, can blame no one but themselves, and not the good people of Flat Rock, for it Was there for them. After dinner and ah intermission of about two hours, conference was opened and the regular order of business gone through with, the congregation was dismissed, to meet back at the church at 7 o'clock, p. it being announced that Rev. J. H.

Rabison, of Ashland, was to preach at said hour. Fortunately, it was giod luck Wbe invited to dineiat supper with Rev. R. J. Brown, pastor of Flat Rock church.

Having known Mr. Brown in our boyhood days, it was indeed a pleas ure to be invited to his hospitable home, and we are placed under many obligations to the parson and his clever lady for their kind hospitality. The hour having arrived for night services, and after reading a chapter in the Good Book, Mr, Robison tak en for his text the 17th and 18th ver ses which will be found in the Book of St. John 3rd chapter. The speak er delivered an excellent sermon te an attentive audience, Rev, Mr.

T. N. Crumpton being called on to close the services, which he did in a very ap propriate manner. After services ev erybody returned to their homes, car rying with them their visiting breth ren and friends. Sunday morning at 1 1 o'clock, af ter the Love Feast at 0 :30, Elder J.

L. Freeman occupied the pulpit, taking for his text the 6th verse of the 17th chapter of the Book of Exo dus. It was estimated by many that there were upwards of five hundred people ou the grounds, the largebuild- lng being crowded almost to suffocation, and many who could not be seated on the inside, crowded about the windows, eager to catch the sound of the speaker's voice, for they felt that a grand sermon was to be delivered on that occasion, and indeed they were not mistaken in their expecta tions, for a more instructive and interesting sermon we never heard. After these services the church partaken of the Lord's Supper, when the meet ing came to a close at about 2 p. and being invited to take dinner with Mr.

James Clara dy we accepted the invitation, and a more hospitable home we never entered, and to whom, for good treatment, his name we will ever cherish in our memory. We want to say right here, that a more cleverer, kind-hearted people can not be found than those who go to make up the community of Flat Rock church. They are a God-serv ing, Christian people GRFSHAMTON GREETINGS.

This is to inform you that I can not write a letter lor our paper this week. I have been trying to gathtr something to write about. I've made a failure There is so much speaking, singing, etc around me, till I sometimes ca'ch the inspira tion and imagine that I am Catali-nam or Ciceronis. I' I go to the court house, I hear nothing but Capt. Whatley's stentorian tones: "Mr.

President, it's natural to man to indulge in the delusions of hope." If I go to Whatley's, Bennet says ''what can I do to you?" If I pass Dodson on the street, it is "what's the news?" Or Ool. Stockdale, its "Give me a pipe o' tobacco." Or Manning, its lets go a or coo unver, its Bob Riddle, its "Yon-der8 a tight case he's owing me 40 cents now or Col Steed, "111 see you in one minute," or W. L.

Is it a large oi.e? "Yes, 64 feet long." What a fish 64 feet long? "No, my net, you fool, you.

He said: "Mr. President, I look down trom my exalted height into the lowest depths of space and see my colleague knock ing the stuffing out of the champion of the Philos, I feel like it would be manifestly wicked and wretchedly reckless, for me te strike an already fallen adversary, therefore I will grab the opportunities, for inviolable attachment, manifesting persevering passions, discouraging vicissitudes of criticisms, essential to perpetual wisdom, virtue and happiness, apprehending with much apprehension and solicitude and no inconsiderable observation, interwoven with the necessary felicity, if you will lay aside all scruples of conscience and principles of discrimination and render your verdict in favor of the Gradys.

Some sickness in this community. Railroad news is being revived, and I think I can almost hear the whistle now. Our streetf are crowded daily with visitors from the surrounding country.

They all seem to say more rain more rest. The Peoples Party down here is living in luxury just waiting to put Captain Kolb in the governor's seat in '94. The oat crop is very fiue now, and if they don't take the rust, we are certain of the best harvest in years. Cotton is ready to chop, but it is dying so fast farmers are afraid to thin it. Messrs.

C. Street, ex-Sheriff White and Syrus Ashcraft, all of Goodwater, were in our town last week. Rev Alexander Allen preached an excellent sermon here last Sunday evening at 3 o'clock. He claims that be is trying to preach the Word regardless of what man says about it. Come again Bro.

Allen, we appreciate your presence with us in your work. Dr. D. L. Stephens, a very enterprising young man, has purchased a very fine croquet set which has made him very poplar with the young ladies.
