The occasion was largely attended, and from what wo can learn was a very enjoyable one. The County Alliance met herc on Ifridny last, a.:d that was tho biggest day Richland has over turned off.

DRAU CorntKU : We aro having a drought of considerable length in this section.

Mr. Willio Gains, a toaohor in tho Westminster Mothodist Sunday School, nlso mado an appropriate address. Tho attendance of these and others connected with tho West minster Methodist Sn? day School, contributed largely to tho pleasure and succ?s?, of tho occasion.
