The services, morning and afternoon. will be held at the usual hours. The Lutheran cong eg:ttion and the public are cordially iu#iited to attend. Our well-borer, "the" veritable Chinese one, it will be remembered, arrived last week. His friends in the country are in forued that he is at work in town. We hope that Le will bore the coniunity well. f The exercises of the Bible Class at Ave leigh Church, Monday evening last, were very interesting. It w is perceptible that the members of the cilass were not oaly familiar with the sacred writings, but that they felt the importance of the command l "Search the Scriptures, for in them ye think ye have eternal life." A charming address was delivered by Rev. P. S. Jacobs, of Ciinton, upon the never failing riches of the eternal word. WILL BE OBLIoD.-Our friends through the Di-trict will confer a favor by imparting to us any and all items of interest which may become known to them from time to tithe, such as fires, lightning strokes, wind s:orm", hail, heavy rain, cotton warm, re markable births, accidental deaths, singular marriages, wonderful fish hauls, together with -an account of the blasse.

Cow A9D Corox.-The weather contin. net cool, fires are constantly necessary, and there have been but few days this Spring (?) warm enough witbout the aid of fire. The effect, such remarkable weather is having upon cotton and corn, is tnut serious. The very heavy wahing rains also have done no little injury of late. Both adverse circumn stances have in many cases almost destroyed the prospect for cotton at least, and we hear of many farmers who are ploughing up their cotton fields for the purpose of putting in corn, not only in this district but in others, $nd we trust that wherever re-planting has to be done, that corn and peas have the pre ference. MORE SEED.-"F." will please accept our thanks for favoi. Have plenty of pumpkin seed now, and if we do not raise enough for home use it will be no fault of our friends. '-F." says he has known and transacted buc sitiess with, editors for many years, and will ever testify to ther sharpness, but that the sharpest one he has ever had_ to do with ia he who plants pumpkiu seed in the mtoon He is startle.1 omut of his every-.day propr iety, and can't see through it. Hie forgets that the age is progessive--that a new order of things is sprung. He thinks too, thot Mce Fall's Veiccipede has something to do with it, but we assure him otherwise; and aniy rway he bets that next Fall he will be able to s howbigger pampk ins raised in the grounid, than we catn from the moon. The bhit is ta ken, and wa trtst he will pay if he bets. The suffering editor of a country newspaper, thus takes Ileave of his readers : "The sheriff is waiting for us in the next room, so we hav-e no opipor ftunsity to be panthetic. Maej.
