Revs. R. H. Marsh, J. A. Strad-
ley, F. R. Underwood, left yesterday
morning to atten^i the Baptist Con
vention which assembles in Rich
mond, Va.
Don’t put too much confidence
in these sunny days, for though.they
seem as harmless as the little lamb of
the household, pneumonia is lurking
around. Hold fast to your overcoats.
A very pretty Sunday-school song
is the one entitled, “Put youraraicur
on, my boys.” W’e know a young
lady who doe.sn’t like to hear
it. She says it sounds like “Put
your arm around me, boys.” Her
objection was evidently to the plural
—“boys.”
We heard a lady of color repre-
mand her son, on Sunday last, as fol
lows ;
“ Now, John Henry Josephus
Agustus Lincoln Grant, you jes’ cum
an’ put on your shoes dis minit. De
idea of you b.in’ out door^, barefoot,
on de Lord’s day ! Why, folk’ will
think you’s Irish.”
Wejinderstand she had been bap
tised the Sunday before.
There is an elderly man in this
town who growls^continually about
the quantity of reading matter the
Clarion contains, and was also
heartl to say that he would not give
a cent for dozen copies. Now we
would like to konw,_if it is so worth
less, why it is he goes to a certain
store in town to read it? If there is
anything we do dislike it is to hear
a man run a newspaper down, and
then deliberately borrow it^^ from
another man to read. It is" com-
tempible to say the lerst of it.
Married.—Our townsman, Mr.
Henry Ikyan, w'as last Tuesday unit

long and happy lile.
