' REV. E. S. V. BRIANT,
The devoted pastor of the Baptist
‘church, has been spending several
I weeks with the churches of his charge
: in the country, conducting protracted
i meetings with them. He has been
'greatly blest in his labors, and re
ports eighty-nine additions by experi
ence and baptism. Mr. Briant re
signed the pastorate of the Central
i (4th) Baptist church, in Atlanta, two
years ago. on account of ill health,
and came to Bellton feeble and ema
ciated; but we are glad to announce
that bis health is now almost entirely
restored, and he has baptised near
‘ two hundred converts in Bellton and
, the surrounding country since his ar
rival among us. He is a native of
j South Carolina, and studied at the
'Southern Baptist Theological Semin
;ary at Gragnville. The Herald, lead
ing paper published at Spartanburg,
has this to say :
Rev. E. S. V. Briant.—This emi
nent young minister of the Baptist
church, formerly of our town, now of
Bellton, Ga., has been spending a few
days at his old home in our county.
A visit from Mr. Briant is always
pleasant, and while we would not de
tract anything from our Georgia
friend against their wishes, we will
venture this assertion, that if he was
ever to conclude, or see tit to return
to bis old friends, he would receive a
rousing welcome. And while lie min
gles among his many new friends in
j his adopted State, we hope he will
I remember that many hearts where
she was born, baptised and begun his
ministry, still beats warm and sends
j up many prayers for him.
. We will only add that if the editor
of the Herald has any more such men
ias Mr. Briant, to spare, he can send
them along—we will find room for
them.
Gillsville Items.
As you desire news items from the
i different sections of our county, I
I take the liberty of representing this
vicinity.
I Our crops are considered good, al
' though they were somewhat injured
by the drouth; but since the recent
j rains, the people seem to be in fine
■ spirits. However, the cause of their
j cheerfulness may, perhaps, be attri
: billed partly to tile glorious result of
the good meetings with which we
have been blest this summer..at the
different churches around us.
] A Baptist church was organized at
I Gillsville, in .lime, with about thirty
i members, which, through the faithful
| labors of Revs. E. S. V. Briant and
1 F. I*. Conn, has recently liad-a gra
! cions revival, and the membership
now numbers eighty-six. May these
; worthy servants of the Lord long be
! spared to labor in the Master's cause,
ami be richly rewarded both in this
life, and in the life, to come. Services
I are now held in (ho upper story of
. the storehouse occupied by Mr. IL M
j Smith; but the memberscontemplate
; building a house of worship soon.
Perhaps it is not generally known
that the Northeastern Railroad Coin
! pany have, this summer built a neat
: little depot at Gillsville, and business

“I take the position that we do not,
in its broad sense, said a gentleman of
years and experience, and yet w'e find
many of the present day carrying a
Buckeye in their pocket through a
kind of superstition, when they might
be relieved by a few applications of
Tabler’s Buckeye Pile Ointment.”

I else but piles. Try it. It will cure you.

THE NEW STYLE
1 FAMILY" SEWING MACHINE,

other machines, and is invariable, whether
the Bobbin is full or nearly empty.
The Perfection of Stitch and Tension.
The upper and lower threads are drawn
together and locked simultaneously in the
Centre of the goods, forming the stitch
precisely alike on both sides of any thick
ness of work, from light gauze to leather.

feed known ; feeds each side of the needle.
New Self-adjusting ‘Take up.’ ‘No tang
ling of thread,’ or dropping stitches.
