Those people lip there Imvc push and enterprise. Marietta is lagging on manufacturing industries. If they will pay in Oedartown, why not in Marietta?—Marietta Journal. 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. in 181)1) the cotton mills of America consumed 8,589,404 hales, the Nurth using 2,100,01)5, ami the South 1,8011,800 bales. In 1000 the consumption of ootton by American mills will increase 107,112 hales, tile North using 2,800,000 and tile Soutli 1,507,000 hales. The balance of tile estimated crop of 0,480,- 000 bales for WOO will be for foreign export. 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 the work of the board lias to be fin ished now as expeditiously as possible. Judge Janes has appointed 'Squire J. A. Wilson to fill the vacancy. The Registrars now are Dr. J. I„ Branch, chairman, Hon. J. S. Dnvitte and 'Squire J. A. Wilson, nil excellent hoard which is doing its duty without fear or favor. The Soutli last year had 538 cotton mills with 4,052,002 spindles. Tins year there are 883 mills with 8,207,188 spindles, or an increase of 180 mills and 1,315,071 spindles. Of the total number of cotton mills in the Soutli, North Carolina leads otf with 280, South Carolina seconds with 131, Geor gia thirds with 120, Alabama fourths with 00, while Tennessee stands fifth with 30 mills, Georgia leads all South ern states in the increase of consump tion of cotton by 07,303 bales, North nnd Soutli Carolina coining next with 53,200 bales each, and Alabama with 15,150 bales. 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. Shopping In Scotland.
