A aeries of meetings hare just closed at the Itap ttst church. In which the pastor. Kev. A. R. Richardson, waa assisted by Dr J. C. Boloroon of Dublin. Thin Is the third successive yesr that Dr. Sol omon has left his home to tell the peo ple of Baxley the truth as it is, and with wonderful power he has. on each occasion, pointed out the way. His last sermon was devoted to the young and never was a more powerful and beautiful, and at the same time simple, sermon delivered. Much good was done. From Inquiry, we find that cotton was not very greatly injured by the long continued rains of a few weeks ago. While the crop apparently was on the verge of ruin, ft was saved by the sunshine coming Just in time to do good. The race between the county com missioners is proceeding with some in terest.
