(J., we, his brethren iu the ministry, while re gretting bis departure, delight to do him honor and adopt this means of recording our fillings of regard aud esteem for him. Therefore be it ISeaolved, That we regard Dr. Kowe as an indefatigable worker in the great Master's vineyard, and fiat in his departure from Mouroe and separation from our organiza tion, we realize a loss of spir.tual, moral and intellectual force and energy; that we extend to him tuis resolution of appreciation for the excellent results of his ministry here, in which he has endeared himself to us, bis brethren in the ministry, aud iu the hearts of many people. v e hoiie for bun boundless pros perity in bis new field aud home, and wish him aud his family Ood's speed. We earnestly commend bim to the people of bis new charge, to the ministry there, and to the gra cious favor of Almighty God, That the secretary send a copy of these resolutions to Dr. Kowe aud furnish the two local papers with a copy, also that these resolu tions be inscribed in the minutes of our ministerial association.

On the morning after the trial of the darkey for shooting the Ital ians, the man and the boy whose monkey was killed wore a picture of woe. With their heads ban daged they made one half hearted attempt to do business without their main attract ion. Wearily they ground off a piece of music, but there being no odd little creature to bop about and beg the iH-iinies, the performance was a failure. Seeing so absolute a failure, they swung the music box to shoulder aud drudged away. When County Commissioner H. L 1'rice was confined to bis home with smallpox, a man came along who wanted to see him. Going np to Mr. Trice's window he inquired if folks were allowed to go atmiit there.

One man who still has his last year's cottoii which he saw rise in price above HiceuU, and also all he made this year, gets some consolation in a peculiar way. "It's the same cotton that it was then," he says. "It is just as good, too, even if it doesu't bring as ui'ich." "I'ltate put iu your paper," said Dr. W. H. l'riceof Sandy Bidge, "that a lot of folks about Trice's Mill have pemuhigus, and a few cases of smallpox." "I am certain to hold on harder while the price is 7 cents," si. id Mr. Thos. E.
