I left for the Central Camp Meetinr near Geneva, and oame to Butler—frai a fair view of theorops along the roat and they are generally as abovo de.’ scribed. On arriving atjutler abort 10 o dock, I bad the pleasure tf meeting and joining a crowd bound foy the camp meeting. We reached Gene va just in time for dinner; after dinner was over,we journeyed on to the camt, ground in a good shower of rain, i - - notwithstanding the inclemency of wsrtheAuund .good crowd in att *W° Buaday evening, the i « and looked as ft it running in opuurtrtwo to tb* cam meeting,but old Sol oatne out wit. %I1 his splendor, despite the might; efforts ot the elouds to keep hiti- hid just in time to give us a deal sunset, which 1 believe indicate! fair day to-morrow. I The meeting I think was enjoy! ed by'all withnousnal interest, espef daily on Monday night when the alter was crowded to overflowiugL extent by those who deoided to ‘ gd their way and sin do more.” L 1 had the pleasaie of meeting onl the grounds, Misses Jennie Wal-| lace, Lula and Olivia Moutfortl of your lovely little city,! and were ve.fr sor^ to fimlthaj Miss Claud hag not put in an appearJT auce. Here is hoping she will bq ^iero next t ime. Misses Fink Rag-1 land of Columbus, Auuie Watts oil Fort Gaines, Annie Doyal of Forsyth,l Lucy Kimbrough of Talbotton, and al host of others of the fair sex, honored! the meeting very much with their presode. 1 Wt partook of the hospitalities ol Messrs.

Now Mamp be ready, and 1 ic along next camp meeting, foH wo cau’t get along without you. IfadT the meeting begun Friday night in-L stead of Thursday night £cy would! have had better weather in the last! days, mt I suppose no man knows I what to-morrow will bring forth. 1 The meeting was weU conducted and I the mo<<t perfect order kept at thej stand aud tents. 1 found a large crowd! there from Upson, and J will say | one word in behalf of the Butler erowdi as they were called. 1 append I their sentiments exactly, that the tent- I er who sent out hie office boy to no- [ tify them that he did not want them I at his tent, that they had received no I invitation to his tent, and he may 1 ever rest easy that they got along I splendid without partaking of any I of his hospitalities, r The meeting broke up Tuesday] morning with services at the standi instead of morning prayers at the I tent, By 10 o'clock nearly all I were gone. I left at 11 o’clock for I the depot at Geneva, had a good I dinner, and a most pleasant ride j to Butler, where I bid the last of I the camp meeting folks good bye, 1 and “journeyed homeward.” Willingham'8 Warehouse, On a recent visit to Maooa, we I made a very pleasant call upon Mr. B. L. Willingham, the cotton factoq in his new quarters on Second Street] It is always enjoyable to meet a persol with his affability, frankness and prof verbial good humor. He is, moreoVe| possessed of sterling business qualiff cations which has made his warehoul the most popular one in Macon With! large proportion of our farmers in Taj lor and the neighboring counties. HP business has rapidly increased duriiL the past few years, until it has nol assumed maguificent proportion. FT realized last season that his formq stand on Fourth Street was too con tracted and too far removed from th. business center of the city, and bis som Mr. 0. B. Willingham, one of Maconl most enterprising young men, erectef for his use the handseme building no?] occupied by him. No building in thl city is better suited to the purpose fol which it was designed, combining as i| does the important advantages of con| venient location, well arranged office! and ample and safe storage room. Mm Willingham’s facilities for handlinl cotton are unsurpassed, and the induce 1 ments he offers to planters are ver« libei aL His charges for selling anl storing cotton, aud his rate of in teres] oa money advances on cotton in stor 1 are such as have made his house de-, servedly popular. As an additional ac commodatioB to his customers, he h&L secured a lot and wagon yard for theil stook, and sleeping apartments for thei| teamsters, which he otters free of charges Mr. Willingham seems to us to havl a special claim upon the patronage a the farmers of Taylor, Tsbot and 3 con oounties. He has been their compromising friend for many yeai and has done much towards luting t weight of debt and finaheial embarra meat which has so long oppressed the!
