THE CAItTEKSVILLE MEETING.
In speaking of the big revival meet
ing at Cartersvillo, the Cartorsvllle
Courunt speaks thus highly of the work
of Rev. W. A. Harris, of Rockmart,
and Mr. C, M. Dunaway, of Oedar
town:—
“Rev. W. A. Harris, whom Mr.
Branham brought to hiB assistance, is
a prcachor of wonderful force, his ser
mons, delivered with powerful earnest
ness, carrying conviction direot to the
hcBrt.
"Mr. Harris was reared in Banks
eounty, and comes of good preaohing
stook. His father, Rev. J. H. Harris,
was a successful preacher of tho years
agone. He is a grandson of Rev. Wm,
J. Parks, one of the pioneers of Geor
gia Methodism, and a nephew of Rev.
H. H. Parks, another well known Meth
odist divine. He is a -brother of Rov.
Lundy Harris, of Young Harris Col
lege. Ho was a local preacher four
years, and on entering Conference
eight years ago offerod himself when
Bishop Haygood called for volunteers
for Western service. He went to Phoo-
nix, Arizona, and apont four years in
the West. Coming baok, ho was as
signed by the North Georgia Confer
ence to the Bookmart and Btilesboro
eirouit, where ho preaobed three years,
as he says, without special results, but
this year—hiB fourth—his work haB
boon blessed liy hundreds of conver
sions. Rov. T. R. McCarty-, of the Ce-
dartown church, bold the meeting for
Mr. Harris at ltookmart after a won
derful revival in hia own ohurch. Mr.
Harris then conducted a meeting at
Btilesboro with marvelous results. At
the two meotlugs it is olaimed there
were GOO conversions. Tho wavo seems
to have been sweeping eastward.
"Mr. 0. M. Dunaway, who has boon
Mr. Harris’ assistant, is a layman. His
home is at Oodartown, but ho was
reared near Linwood, in ,tbis county,
whoro bis father now lives. A modest,
good boy, ho was oonverted in tho Ce-
dartown mooting, and has been under
a steady stress, it seems, ever since to
{ iroolaim God's goodness to others. He
s a wondorfully effective exhorter.”
An Enitllibninn * 1 , Manners.
Note, ns lins long been noted, that
the only manners tho Englishman cares
about nro tvhat our country cousins
cnll "table manners.” He can lay enor
mous Btress upon these without seem
ing to thaw out, for they rcnlly ex
press nothing, nnd motlculous nicety
in tho forms of eating and drinking
plenscs ills Innate sense of refinement
and chimes In with hls'dlBliko for mak
ing a mess. Yet a certain Frenchman
may not linve behq far wrong, nfter all,
In snylug that “tbejjngllsh would sure
ly not frown so upon n man's mopping
up snueo with a piece of bread If they
themselves liad ever hnd any sauco
worth mopping up.” It may bo thnt
tho Englishman’s perfection of deport
ment at meals comes in part from n
Inck of temptation to do otherwise.
But the truth Is none the less apparent
that the complicated conventions re
garding what to do and what to avoid
at table thnt obtain In England do
not in any way Involve that outward
expressiveness which tho Englishman
abhors. He can obey them without
prejudice to Ills Impassivity. And this
cult of Impnsslvonoss, of self repres
sion. Is essentially Spnrtnn-thnt of the
savage.—Scribner's.

Col. J. II. Sanders has resigned his
position on the Board of Registrars,
of which lie wns a most efficient mem
ber. His resignation was necessitated
by the fnot that Ills business in court
required his presence this week, while

ished now as expeditiously as possible.
Judge Janes has appointed 'Squire J.
A. Wilson to fill the vacancy. The

Tlic Orlirln of I'lm-nlx Pork.
The origin of the name of Phoenix
park has puzzled ninny seliolnrs unac
quainted with the Irish language. The
ninuor wns called in the Irish vernacu
lar Flonn-ulsge, pronounced finuiske,
which signifies clear or fair water, nnd
which, articulated in tho brief English
lujunior, exactly resembled the word
phoenix. The spring or well so cnlled
from which tho park derives Its
name still exists close to the Dublin en
trance of the viceregal lodge. It is
situated In a glen beside the lower
lake aud Is oue of the romantic objects
of the park.—London News.
