The Charleston correspondent of the Augusta Chronicle ha3 this to say abont Rev. J.

Walter Dickson, who, during the year 18S6, filled the pul? pit of Spring Street Methodist Episcopal Church South. Mr. Dickson is one of those incisive preachers who makes every utterance of his tell upon his audience. He built up this congregation from a mere handful to an immense proportion, and was beloved for his genial qualities, not only by his own, but by many of other denominations. Called by the late Meth? odist Conference to go np higher, he is now Presiding Elder of the Greenville District. His place has been supplied by the Rev. LeRoy F. Beaty, a young man, but whose future promises to be a bright one."

The Cantata was divided into three scenes, and was most interesting throughout. All the characters were sustained in a very cred? itable manner, and the audience showed its appreciation by frequent applause. The Cantata was so highly enjoyed that Miss Trowbridge has been requested to repeat it. She has decided to do so, and will give a matinee next Saturday after? noon at 4 o'clock, ir -?rder that the chil? dren may have an op. .unity of attend? ing. The admission /rice has been re? duced to fifteen cents, which should insure a full house. Parents should go aud take their children.

A meeting of those of our citizens who had had the pleasure of visiting the City of Augusta on the excursion of the 12th and 13 inst., was held at the office of Gen. W. W.

Whitnertoact as Secretary. Gen. Hum? phreys explained that it was thought proper by many of the excursionists that some united expression of the apprecia? tion of the kindness and hospitality ex? tended to them by the citizens of Augus? ta should be made, and that it was for that purpose the meeting had been called. The following preamble and resolutions were then offered by Maj. E. B. Hurra/, and being warmly seconded by several gentlemen, were unanimously adopted : Whereas, The citizens from Anderson to the City of Augusta, during the late excursion to that city, were prevented from meeting at its conclusion to express their appreciation of the courtesies exten? ded to them; therefore, Resolved, That the thanks of the excur? sionists from Anderson to Augusta are due and are hereby tendered to the citi? zens of Augusta for the many and thought? ful courtesies shown us by them in organ? izing the said excursion,'for the perfect manner in which .it was managed, and for attentions shown us during our stay in their beaatiful city. Resolved, That the recollections of these pleasures received at the hands of the citi? zens of Augusta oauses us to feel that that city is not only made a neighbor by rail, but that she is a friend of our city as well, and that we hope this friendship will con? tinue and grow as our mutual acquaint? ance is increased. Resolved, That a copy of this preamble and these resolutions be forwarded to Col. W. A. Garrett, Chairman in charge of the Anderson excursion, and that copies for publication be furnished the Augusta Chronicle and the Anderson papers. The meeting then adjourned. Frank C.

In addition to the above questious there ore others which will not be published until the question box is opened at the hoar of discussh _t. All the officers of the above named churches are expected to be punotually present at the beginning of the Confer? ence. Friends of all denominations and all interested in the welfare and propriety of our beloved Zion, are most cordially in? vited to encourage us with their presence. Executive Committee. Mb. Editob : So great lias been the dis? satisfaction caused by the new Road Law, passed by our General Assembly in its late Bession, that quite a large crowd of the cit? izens of Slabtown and surrounding com? munity met at Slabtown Academy on the evening of the 22d nit. for the purpose of discussing its merits (?) and demerits. The meeting was represented by citizens from three different townships, and they proceeded to organize by electing Capt, G. A. Rankin chairman, and W. 0. Smith secretary. The chairman then stated the object of the meeting, and called upon those who felt so disposed to express their views upon the new law. A goodly num? ber eagerly responded, and each and every one expressed their hearty disapproval of the law, and demonstrated with very clear and conclusive argument that it was most unjust and unreasonable, and that we should Eolidly condemn it, and that it be? hooved us to be watchful of our own inter? ests, and not allow ourselves to be imposed upon by such legislation. The discussion was prolonged at some length, and all seemed thoroughly aroused and indignant, and thought that the people of our County should come square out and show their unwillingness to submit to such oppression, and let our worthy Legislature know that we have not yet .fallen into lethargy, and that the ennui which we have suffered to creep upon us is being quickly shuffled off, and demand justice at least. The follow? ing preamble and resolutions were then submitted to the meeting, and were unani? mously adopted: Whereas, the General Assembly of S. ft, in its late session assembled, passed an Act entitled "The New Road Law," which we deem both uncalled-for, unjust, unwise, oppressive and tyrannical; therefore, be it 1st. Resolved, That we heartily disapprove of, and will not heed, such a law. 2nd. That we will work our roads as heretofore?so long as may be necessary? and no longer, 3d. That inasmuch as we deem that the originator and supporters of the said law have manifested such poor judgment as to what is good and best for the prosperity and welfare of the mass of the people, that we will exert our most Btrenuous efforts not to entrust to them the privilege and honor of again representing our inter? est, After other remarks and suggestions, the following preamble and resolution was submitted which was also adopted: Whebeas, We now see that we made a great mistake in placing our suffrages in our last election, and whereas all men are liable to make mistake, be it Resolved, That we seek forgiveness for having so erroneously erred, and that we freely pardon our Honorable Senator and his worthy co-workers for having imposed upon us so unreasonable a law as "The new Road Law," attributing their mistake to an error of the head and not of the heart. It was moved and carried that a copy of the resolutions, and the proceedings of the meeting be sent to the county papers for publication, and the meeting adjourned. Capt, G. A. Rankin, Chairman. W.

McCully, Cathcart& Co.?Gentlemen: The Barbour Cotton Seed and Grain Crusher which I bought of you last January has given me satisfaction in every respect. I can crush more seed per hour than you recommended the Ma* chine to do, having speeded my Machine to crush 60 bushels per hour, which it did easily with about four horse power. The Seed when crushed is in excellent condi? tion for use as a Fertilizer, and I am satisfied that farmers all over the Sooth should use them as a matter of economy in the use of Cotton Seed as a Fertilizer. All my customers are pleased with the Machine, and I am having considerable addi? tional demands to gin cotton from parties who desire their seed crashed. Yours truly, G. 8. WILLIFORD.
