It seemed that the delegates and ministers all came up to the session full of the spirit of unity and the power of the Holy G host came down and abode with us. It reminded us of the Day of Petecost when they all saw eye to eye and had all things! common. Our beloved pastors did some of their best preaching on this] occasion which was greatly enjoyed. We feel safe when in the midst of such preachers as the Stanleys. Skipper, Cox. Hanvlson, Bullock. IlarI dee and Todd.

Vereen at Bear Bltiff. Others in Vicinity. There ai o some marl boils alonjj the Waceainaw river in the vicinity ot Hear Hlwtl, that would be very valuable to the farmers of that seclion of the county, if facilities wore provided whereby the marl miyht be Iran sported to the fields. There is one of these beds on the land of Mr. I?. R. Vereen. known as Limestone Hill. This marl bed is one hundred and liftv feet in length I and thirty feet deep. Further up the river is another on the s one I trad of land. There is one near the W. I\ Nixon landing and one near (1 rahamvillo. There is another near what is called Tilde's lake measuring one hundred feet in length and from twenty live to thirty- live feet in depth. Several more have been found at Hoard Landing and probably as far up the river as Red HlulV. The marl taken from these beds will produce as line crops as the best of fertilizer it is said. Any farmer would be tfkul to have his Molds well supplied with the rich soil. Hut the dilliculty lies in obtaining the stulV. The beds are situated so that it can only be brought to the highland by moans of boats and llals. It would not cost a oreat deal to purchase the machinery for the operation of a cable on the same plan as rock is conveyed from a quarry. We see no reason why an investment of this kind bv the own ers of the beds would not be profitable. In this way the marl inicht be conveyed to the highland and easily and cheaply nauled away. The matter is well worth thinking over. ? ??? ? 4^^??? Ciurlcy Notes Hot weather. I Monty of rain. Wood cutting in order. The bar room business here is progressing wonderfully.
