Wo waute I his report of the Sunday tthool convention The several correspondents of the Timks put it upon the local (Santuc) correspondent to write up the cou vent ion. The North 1'aco'ct delegation joins us in thanking the people of Santuc for the kindness and hospitality extended us during our short May with them. Among others we made the acquaintance of the versatile corrospon lent, E. W. J., ana found him not so much of a lady's man as he >\ou'cp h^ve our readers think he is.

Apropos: In the official report of tho proceedings of the Sunday school convention, published last week, we want to call attention to an error. In brother Miller's text occurs "ten" instead cf u.c sma'l fishes. This is atypegra- hical error, orolsoit proves that "our devil" o*- the proof reader dou't read the scriptures carefully.

The score was 38 to 10 in favor of the Sanluc team. A goodly uiimbcr of ladies from each place, was in attendance, and they did much cheering for their respective clubs. Our "boys'' are becoiuiug good pliyers, and deserved all the cheers they received. The picnic was a succets, and all present enjoyed it highly. The County S. S. Convention, i?eld at this place last week, was an enjoyable affair, for tne, as all such are, and 1 learned much therefrom. That was nil tight. Mr. Editor, on your part, 111 withholding my report of the proceedings, as toe Secretary was the proper one to report theui ; but lie and otliera requested me, asM was the resident correspondent of the Timks, to report the proceedings, which alono prompted me to devote considerable trouble ami tiuio in getting up the points, and put in shape.$ < A. The event of events, for me, wis the x meeting of the Union County liaptst Asso- > ciation. with the West Springs church, ou ^ the 30th, 31st and Sept. 1st. I will i\ot give any of the procevdings, as the minutes when published will show to all who got then. 1 wilt inertly say the suae ollic.rs were re elcoted. Ail of the delegates were prompt and attentive upon the business of the Assoc alien. Dr. T. M. Buley, Cor. Soc'y of the State Mission Hoard, Kev. J. L. Vass, of the Con- 'H nio Maxwe'l Orph mage, and Prof. G. 15, Moore, ofFurmsu University, wore prcsjut and lalkcd up their respective charges. We were a-signeJ to Mr. Wm. Liulo, and weto the recipients of the mo^t lavish kindheartedness and genuine hospitality. Staying within one milo of Glenn Springs, wo could go up every evening, drink mineral water, meet friends from Union, rest ourselves, or walk over the town, and leisurely walk ba ;k home, to find our animals feJ, and supper resdy, then hitch up an 1 drive to West Springs to enjoy a good sermon at night. Ou Thursday morning, af.cr br?ikfast, we drove over lo the gold lu'ties, sigt^ seciug. Many oi your readers niay^^ ahead of ine iu seeing the mines and nuchiuery, but many have not seen them. There was not much being done while we were there?only prospecting, and not much of the machinery was running. We visited the largo double motion stc.un pump, about ;{ i t'u mile from the ntinrs, Ilia; wt,s forcing v?atcr through a 6 incli pipe, tu supply the engines, unJ fir other uses. At the miuos, ejector* was being put into the shafts to draw off aecuiun ated water instead of hoisting it. Wo entered a tunnel iu which they were at work, but we would not go fs>r. H'c then followed a so id rock on to the cud, many feet uuler the ground. It was ns dark us miJuirdtl in I'gvpt, nul wc had to continue lighting matches to see, Our bveathing would actually roar, and to shout would cause a terrible roaring. We failed to sec the s'amps at work, but we saw much that wat extremely itveresting to us, and felt more thau paid for our visit.
