But we were disappointed, we - inquired where wo could hear the best preaching, and were in formed that the Lutheran church was the place,' joint services being held there by the Baptists, Methodists and Presbyteri ans, the services to be conducted by Rev. CiM. Payne," or the 2nd Presbyterian Wilson, D. D., pastor of the First Presby terian Church. Mr. Payne preached . a very able, entertaining and instructive ser mon from the 1st and 2nd verses or the lUod Psalm.
