Baptist Convention Statistics. In our issue of November 21st were pub lished statistics taken from an exchange showing the work of the Baptist conven tion. The figures were not those of the convention but were totals of wi rk done in tuissiou fields and contributions made by them. They were as t'llw-: Sermons (5,til)8; churches supplied, 2-12; out stations supplied 178; persons haptiyod i)42; added by letter 872; pn -fessions. of fait h 1)24; houses of wor.-liip building 80; bouses of worship finished 2st; churches organize 1 40; pai l pastor". 813.82"); given to State missions 81)15.1 1; foreign missions S7G8 12; home missions $:.vi.2S; education 8312. :!4; orphanage 8 lb'!.78; building and repairing 64.108 12; number of Sunday schools 3110; offi cers nnd teachers 20,145; new schools or"anized b'4; contributed by schools $742 83.

These lasts amounts do not include th" contributions to the II iptist Orphan age, Church extension fund or funds contributed to any purpose ly pastors or others which did not pass through the hands of the treasurer of the convention Rheumatism Is undoubtedly caused by lactic acid in the blood. This acid attacks the fibrous tissues, aud causes the pains and aches in the back, shoulders, knees, ankles, hips, and wrists. Thousands of people have found in Hood's Sarsaparilla a positive cure for rheumatism. This medicine, by its purifying action, neutralizes the acidi ty of the blood, and also builds up and strengthens the whole body. Interesting Facts Aiiout thei Canal. By reference to our advertis-1 ing columns it will be seen that the Roa- noke Navigation and Water Power Com pany want their land cleared as soon as it can be done, and have advertised for bids to do the work. In au interview with Mr. S. P. Arrington, treasurer of the company, he informed us that the purpose of the company was to have sur veys made as soon as the clearing is com pleted and begin work at, as early day afterwards as may be practicable. The company proposes to open the canal to the capacity of 200 or 500 horse power, the size to be determined after the survey is made. As soon as this is done a grist mill of 2,000 bushels daily capacity will bo built at this place and whatever horse power is not needed for this will be rented to other parties. Mr. Arrington said further that the company, anticipating the purchase ot the land they wanted along the line, had made every airangemetit to develop the canal to its very fullest capacity and for that purpose all the papers had been pre pared and were ready for signature, but when it was found that the land could not be obtained the company determined to develop the canal to such capacity as would supply enough water for their own use and for which the land already owned by them would be sufficient. It is very much to be regretted that the company could not get the land it wanted, as the benefit to this entire community would then have been inestimable. However, it is a matter of congratulation to know that there is a prospect of the development of this valuable property eveu to a small extent, and it is to le hoped that some time in the near future the company will be given the opportu nity of enlarging the canal to its maxi mum capacity. A chance is offered now for a profita ble contract in clearing the company's right of way, regarding which particulars can be had at the offices of T. N. Hill, Halifax and W. II. Day and W. E. Daniel, Weldon. The company would put 2,000 horse power at this place if they could pur chase the land they want, but that being impossible they have decided only to put as much water here as they may need for their own use, and the consequence will bo that this community, property holders especially, will not be benefited, a capaci ty of several hundred horse power not being sufficient to build up the place and ! create a demand for such things as our people have to sell. Ordination and Confirmation Services. Sunday was a most interest ing day to the Episcopalians in this com- munity. Iwo services of great interest ! and importance to them were held in ; Irrace church. In t lie morning alter an able sermon appropriate to the occasion by Bishop Lyman, the Rev. W. L. Mel!'- i clianipe was admitted to the order of i priests according to the solemn and im pressive ritual of the church. Mr. Melli- ! ehampe. was presented by the Rev. Gilbert I lliggs, the Rev. A. S. Smith, D. D., : reading the epistle and the Bishop read- ; ing i ho gospel. The vows being taken; Mr. Mellicbaiope was ordained to the priesthood, the Revs. A. S. Smith and' Gilbert lliggs joining in the laying on of , hands with the tiishop. The Holy com- ! munion was then celebrated. There was I a large congregation present to witness j the impressive services. The ordination j service according to the rites of the Epis copal church had never before been held ' here aud the occasion made a lasting iui- j pressioli. In the afternoon the ordinance of bap- j tism was adminis'tcred to two infants at! which sci vice theie was also a large at- ; tendance I At night after evening prayer and ti , sermon by the Bishop the rile of eon- i tirniatioii was administered to a class of six candidates two males and four fe males. This service was also well at tended. 1 he sermons "n both occasions were fine and commanded the closest at teiiiioii. The Bishop preached at Halifax Mon y night and confirmed a class of five poisons, lie preacneu at Jilttieton l'n day night to a good and attentive cou gregaiion and confirmed five persons. 11 rival" er I'ishop Lyman's appoint ments in ibis locality will be in the winter instead of the spring as heretofore, a change made necessary by the increased amount of work which ho now has to lo.

He ,las remnant counter, whereon are numbers of short pieces of dress goods and others of similar kind, in lengths from two to twelve yards. He also shows ladies' hose of good quality at less than one-half the wholesale cost. These goods can be examined before they are pur- chased and if they are not bargains, why, don t buy them, Logical reasoning and theories may convince a superficial observer, but ear nest seekers after truth demand experi mental knowledge, found only in the testimony of those who have experienced the virtue of an article.

C, May 2, 1887 i Mrs. Joe Person Dear Madam: Most gladly de I give you my name to place before the public, bearing testimony of the miraculous cure effected on me by your most valuable Remedy. Fifteen ypars ago I was troubled by what seemed to belittle scales appearingon the right side of my cheek, under the eye, resembling dry meal bran,which I tould remove when I shaved, but they would appear again in a short time. Soon an enlargement ap peared under the same eye, attended with itching and burning sensations, and sharp, darting pains from the affected place to the eye, causing great difficulty in closing the eye, even to sleep. Some times it would feel better, but never at any time disappear. Some physicians pronounced it eczema, others chronic erysipelas, and all advised me to let it alone. This I did until two years ago, when a little scab began to form right near the eye, resembling a wart, which I could not remove; in size and appearance it soon grew to be as large as a strawberry, and the scabs came off and left the place entirely raw. Having fear of a cancer, I began to use various kinds of salves to heal it up, but never could. I consulted with physicians of great experience; they said it looked suspicious, and advised me to have it cut or burnt out at once. I did not wish to do either; and being pursuad ed it was in my blood, I resolved to try your Remedy, as it had been recommend ed to me. I did so with the most happy results. I can say I am a well man. I cannot say too much for your Remedy; it is worth its weight in gold. Before I had used one bottle I was hopeful, and at the expiration of five weeks the sore was entirely healed, the scales or rough ness of the skin all gone, and left me a new man. I will give any one similarly affected any further information they may desi.e, and can only say, if the public will give your remedy a trial.it will speak for itself, and your success will know no bounds. Godspeed the day that must dawn upon your luture prosperity! Yours most truly, JAS. CARTER ARRINGTON. For sale iu Weldon by W. M. Cohen and at Zollicoffer's Drug Store. dec 12 2t.
