( Camp Meeting. < We attended on last Saturday and Sun- i day tho Annual Camp Meeting at New Sa- I letn, ten miles South of the Village. The attendance was not as large as usual by visitors or tent holders, this was oweing, we sup. pose, lo tho warm weather and the fact of the cauip-ground being nearly fenced in ? It was intimated to us that a plan was on foot to change the place of holding the camp-meeting, some miles below the present site. We hope this will not be done, and yvo think if proper advances were made satisfactory arrangements could be entered into to please all parties. Several ministers were in utlendance and some good sermons preached?-much zeal manifested and we hope a great deal of good will result from their labors.

This is the title of a neat and well written volume on Flower Gardening, by Mrs. M. C. Kion, of Winnaboro, P. C. Published by P. B. Glass, and printed at the book of fice of C, P. Pelhnin, Columbia. We congratulate the southern ladies on the appearance of this work, which will so materially aid them in their work of Floriculture. It will prove of great service to every lady florist, and will enable them to transplant, bud, water, dec., without the aid of on experienced gnrdner. The author in Iter preface says she has intentionally avoided all technical or scientific terms, using only those understood by every lady of education She is pery precise end minute in her directions and they can be applied by any one.
