Hatcheechubbeb, Ala., August 22.— Things have changed wonderfully in this community since 1 wrote you last,’ the dead Jock of the aforementioned intensive heat has been broken and the atmosphere is cool and bracing. The weather, generally, suggests the season of the sear and yellow leaf; Ellas, of old. prayed that it might not rain and so it didn’t for three years and a half. The good people here prayed that it might rain and God answered their prayers. On last Friday he lifted the flood-gates of heaven and the rain poured and cooled the parched earth and ail veg etation and man was made much more comfortable in the flesh as well. The crops are revived and are more promising. I hear nothing new from the cotton cater pillars’ Increased ravages. Several deaths in the communit the past week, and much sickness reported. I am told that Dr. Smith is riding day and night. The protracted meeting at this place is still in progress. It has been going on for a week. The crusade of the Christians, lead by Rev. Mr. D. C. Crook, has made broad and successful invasions on the as sumed territory of sin and ungodliness. The evil spirit and his proud and pam pered cohorts, that once held ambitions sway over nil this undisputed domain round about Hatchechubbee, have been routed and put to an ignominious flight. Yea, the devil, with his martialed and disci plined forces, have met a Wellingtoiij arid that which once proved to be his Sldon, turns to be his Waterloo, and he is now scampering for his Hel-ena. The good people have prayed and asked, and they have received, because they did not ask amiss that they might consume it upon their lusts. Heaven has been made to re joice and hell to weep. The angels have pitched their tents and camp on the hills of Hatchechubbee. The good people can truly say, “The victory is largely ours; we have fought a good fight, enter thou into the joys of the Lord.” A righteous sun sheds its radiating beams o’er the seques tered spots of a once hideous darkness. All are standing—not facing the dawn, but in the broad arena, luxuriating in the full orbed noonday of religion. Mr. Crook is a wonderful and invincible revivalist. He uses Saxon that cuts like a Damascus sword, only two-edged. It is hoped, after these telling services and glorious works, that it may never be said by any one, at any time in the future about Hatchechub bee, which was the modern Sodom, ns Christ did, both pitiousiy and upbraiding- ly, ofCapernaum : “Thou Hatchechubbee which art exalted unto Heaven, shall be brought down to hell, for if the mighty works which have been done in thee had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment than for thee. The spreading and magnetic influences of God’s spirit and works have gone out from this place. There are many people here to-day from Seale, Hurtsboro, Ucliee, and other points attend ing the meeting. Your correspondent sauntered over to the church this morning at the usual hour for services. I stepped upon the portico of the church and commenced to cast about over the sea of heads, for a seat, when I found, to my great disappointment, that all of them were taken. Imagine how disgruntled, so to speak, I was when I reluctantly turned from the church and wended II my way homeward. Did you ever, on any occasion, experience real, genuine, heartfelt, disap pointment after having revelled all night in georgeous anticipations ? If you have then you can know about how I feel at this writing. I am not particularly mad %wit.h anyone, but am sorter out with my self for not getting up earlier. I am very much like one ofthe characters of a noted humorist any way. I never think ofthe consequences of an act until they are on me. Some people, we know, prudent peo ple, think of the consequences before they act. Well, the slothful and sluggard shall always be ahungered. Just me too. I believe there is a better feeling exist ing among the people of this community in regard to school matters. They are al most persuaded to be united. This, I ex pect, is another good result oi the meeting now in progress. Well, it is simply useless to try to enumerate all the beauties that originate from the earnest, Christian W Mrs. B. went to church with me this morning and some gallant and courteous gentleman gave her a seat at the feast , and she is there yet and I am writ ing,and at the same time taking care of two babies; ana one of them is young enough to make it the link that not only binds the mother to heaven, but to put the lather to searching the premises at night for the paragoric bottle. , But I am hoping for Mrs. B.’s return, and you know that hope is the only source of comfort for man’s imperfect condition. There, now, Mrs. B. is at home. Our meet ing was warm. I am not so happy. 1 he first thing she said to me was—witherlngly —“I am ashamed of you.” I asked why with much astonishment. She said : Be cause you left the church. I timidly and tearfully suggested that the seats were all taken, and she clinched the whole business by saying that everybody else got a seat. I promised that if she would forgive> me, that I would remain next time, 11 1 had to sit on the steps in the sun without ail um brella. Thus it is that man’s most cher ished and fond anticipations are_ made to vanish in the dim distance and vista of dis appointment. Man proposes and woman disposes. ’• COUNTY LINE CHURCH. A (loot!

Salem, Ala., August 23.—We went out to Countv Line church, ot the lJapu.it order, on' yesterday, where they nave a large and interesting Sabbath school. The writer’s first visit to this church was in 1879, at which time there was not enough young folks and children to oigun- ize a good Sunday school, and now we see numbers of young people large enough to attend who were quite small .ben, and me fast blooming into womanhood and man- We had the pleasure of listening to a very interesting sermon by their pastm .

They have had for the first time in se\ eral years a good revival and spiritual meeting, attended with an addition of twelve members by experience to thei church, and in the evening was made to rejoice to see them buried in baptism at the hands of their pastor.

Seale, Ala., August 23.—The all-absorb- iug topic of conversation now is the gun club barbecue on Thursday of this week. The club is making active and extensive preparations for the grand event, which is sure to be. a success. Sam Chadwick caught a wildcat on the Uchee Saturday morning, which weighed 23A pounds. At the public debate Friday night lost the Ciceronians discussed the question, “Should the United States go to war with Mexico under the existing state of affairs?” The affirmative side won. Uncle Sam may now proceed to declare war. Miss Ruth Howard is spending some time in Glennville. Mrs. Johnson and her beautiful daughter, Miss Carrie, of your city, aye the guests of Mrs. J. B. Mitchell. Mr. Henry Hunter, of Columbus, was in town Sunday. Mr. W. D. Doughtie has returned from a pleasure trip to Eufaula. Mr. Herman Hirscli left for New York yesterday, to buy goods for his firm. Miss Jessie Cranberry returned from a visit to relatives in Columbus, yesterday. Messrs. J. S. Sweeney and J. H. Reneau, of Birmingham, came down yesterday to see Miss Oh! Go-ugh ! Quite a crowd from town went down to Hatchechubbee yesterday to attend f ireaohing. I understand that the services here are becoming quite interesting. The Enquirer-Sun did not arrive on the morning train yesterday, very much to the regret of its numerous readers here. Miss Mary Howard lias returned from Asheville, N. C. Misses Gongh Bustln, Ida and Fannie Henry, a beautiful trio, went up to Colum bus this morning to have their jjictures taken. Smith's Slnlliin. A correspondent from Smith’s Station sends us the following: Since the recent rains cotton crops are very much improved. Corn was never better iu this section. Fodder pulling and hay cutting has been keeping the farmers busy for two weeks, and we will have plenty of roughage for our cattle this winter. There was a wild hog hunt on Mr. Jim Pierce’s plantation Friday afternoon. They succeeded in killing two very fine hogs which weighed about three hundred and fifty pounds each. Mr. W. A. Frazer and George Barr claim to be the best shots, but from the looks of the hogs there seems to have been about a dozen brag shots. There were fifteen men in the crowd. Mr. Pierce, no doubt, feels greatly relieved as they have been playing havoc with his corn for more than two years. Mrs. W. A. Byrd left to-day for Rome, where we hope she will have a pleasant trip and return very much improved in health. THE COTTON CROP. CaternillurN nmi Hull YVuriiis mill llry Weather All DiiIiii; Dninuge. Montgomery Advertiser. The farmers in tins'section are a little blue just now over the outlook for a cotton The Fuming Folnrn. Navy-blue and brown willjie the colors most generally worn next season. This is plainly shown in the importation of cloths, velvets and other dress goods, in dress trimmings and in all millinery goods. With the purplish marine blues cardinal red will bo restored for contrasts, while the brighter poppy reds will be used with the new olives, which have more green than the brownish and yellow-tinted olive shades of last year. Black will be restored to the favor it'formerly had for young and old alike, and which it has never really lost with rich women who can afford to wear the costliest black fabrics. The new blue shades are salnmmbo, serpents and canard, with gray and green tints in them, yet entirely different from the peacock blues, or the cadet gray blue of past seasons. The new browns are rosewood and mure (mul berry) for very dark shades, with lighter capucine, cafe and maroon tints, while for the red browns are Etruseon and Acajou or mahogany, Dahilia and heliotrope and plum shades are in great favor with French women, and will make refined costumes of cloth or velvet, while for lighter dresses for the house are Ophelia and mauve shades of cashmeres, with softly rapped faille or velvet in combination. Gobelin is another name given to the Salammbo blue tints.
