Camp Ground Burned*
We have been rnfiirro ed l»y Mr. O.
M. Colbert, who passed through Gene
va on yesterday, that the Ri*d Bone
camp grouud in Marion county, was
totally consumed by fire on Sunday
last. Not a single tent wns left. This
is truly a very sad loss as the arbour
of tho Red Bone camp-ground was
one of the best in thin wlpile section
of country. There were also several
residences burned.
Jteliycous Service•
An it nkk literally ’Understood
among our people, Rev. Dr. H. J..
Harvey of Macun, whom our people,
have become much attached by his fre
quent visits among us, preached * very
interesting sermon in the MotbpJjuNt
church on last Sunday morning. f)/i Re
count of the d y being very windy and
unpleasant the attendance was small.,
In the evening the pulpit was occu
pied by Rev. Albert Grny,ftf the North
Georgia Conference;*brother of.our
fellow-citizen Mr. Jj T. Gray. The
sermon wan deeply iftteiicstiag to all.
end the attendance on . that .occasion
was very good
An Explanation*
We have been informed* that our
article some time since with refer
to our college was the subject oft some
criticism iu consequenooiuf ««r failure
to say anythiug specially with reference
to the musical departments We should
have been pleased in that article hud
space permitted, to have specially men
tioned every department of the. institu
tion, with the particular professor hav
ing it in charge. As.it was however,
Sre could only write .of the college in a
general way, supposing it would be uu
derstood as a matten^df course, that
•the department of music. was equally
»as well conducted aumwere the other
.departments. Like all the others, tln-i
•department of music*iH ably managed]
•and in a flourishing condition.

That ‘‘every tub should si and on its

that is doubt toss a' mystery to most
persons^ but then, I believe, that in its'
practice there would be more genuine
refcgeon in the country , than comes by
“Faith,” or any other technical tlieol
ogy, and that all men should observe
it, as well as women who carry home
steads or estates in their own names,
