Sunday School addresses were made j l>y Dr. B?yd and "\V. J. Scruggs, | superintendent of the Sunday School Df the first Church, Columbia. At the :i:j.?... led hour, Rev. .Jabcz Ferris preachcd a sermon from Mark, j 1G:K*>, "Go preach the gospel." After- j ward quite a good offering was taken,; which, as per resolution, was appro-! printed to State Missions. The business before the Union com- j pleted, the body adjourned to meet wiih liuftalo Ciiurch Saturday before | the fifth Sunday in October, l.SD.'J. We were very Agreeably surprised | to lind tlie crops between this and J Monticello looking so well, cotton especially. We were, however, very i sorry to sec so little corn planted.! In certain localities which had been ; so fortunate as to escape tlie two I weeks' drought the old corn was look- j ing line. We were struck with a field ; of about the best corn that we saw be- j longing to M r. Daniel Kufl*. It was,! in our judgement, certainly a field of corn hard to beat. The prospect for j a pea crop is fine, and we were glad ; to see so many plante.-l. Friday night we enjoyed and appro- j ciated the very kind hospitality of the i family of friend Jos. XV. Clark. We i were sorry friend Joe himself was ab j sent, having gone to Columbia. Early I Saturday morning we set out for the place of our destination. We found the crops from there to the church had suflcred terribly for the want of rain, and of course were not boking so well. Saturday night was spent with our old friend Mr. David Glenn. "While there we were made to feel, and really did feel, like we were at home. Xo more hospitable family can be found in Fairfield.

She was fortunate in having an audience competent to judge of her powers as an elocutionist, all of whom concur in the opinion that she has certainly mastered tbe art. The selections were well chosen and so well rendered it would be a difficult matter to discriminate. The ''Song of the Camp/' by Bayard Taylor, "Our Guide in Genoa and Home," by Mark Twain, "Legend of Bregcnz", "Charlotte Corday", and j the "Bird's Banquet", we think impressed the audience more than either of the othci'S, but the whole was so admirably rendered we were sorrv ?t?
