his father’s stead, was nominated and
unanimously elected oil first ballot; a
good choice; but what do you think
ho did, as soon as his election was an
nounced? He arose from his scat in
the bar, and with veiy great ecclesi
astical dignity walked deliberately in
to the pulpit and took his sent; don’t
know what he meant, unless he thought
tho conference had unanimously elect
ed him a preacher. .
Bro. Stubbs, of this charge, seems
to feci a deep interest in his people’s
spiritunl welfare, and is working and
praying for, and expecting a glorious
revival to follow in the wake of the
district conference.
G. W. II.
About the District Conference.
Were you ever a delegate to a
Methodist conference? If not, you
don’t know what you have missed.
This is the writer’s first experience,
and I will now say to you, and the
church authorities at home, that I am
somewhat like the average politician
of the present day, a standing candi
date, and liopo. that I will he elected
next year without opposition; and I
believe I will, because I am not only
a good Georgia Pierce Methodist and
Jeffersonian democrat, but a staunch
friend of the farmers alliance.
1 am a candidate for I like the
office, as the average college girl
would say. “It’s awful nice.”
Well, we left Thomasvillc at S:30
Friday morning with a full delega
tion, and as we sped along through
tho lovely pine forest, it was a grand
and beautiful sight to behold tho fine
c irn and cotton crop on either side,
and watermelons, whew! we never
saw the liku. Thousand upon thous
and, and lliuy were very fine looking,
uud templing in the extreme.
The nice and clever people of
Blakely, we are sure will not he any
the worse off for having had the con-
fereuce. and the deeply pious lay
delegations with them, (only in ono
respect.) Their larders will look
after the conference, ns though n
small sized western cyclone had struck
them, but up to the present writing
there are no visible signs of any
falling oil in the commissary. Since
our arrival here we have been very
forcibly reminded of the first speech
wo ever made, when n small school
hoy, which ran about thus:
"A while old lien with yellow lrgs
Laid her master ninny eggs,
From her nest eggs were taken
To put in cake or fry with bacon.”
That ancient hen stdl lives, and
some of her descendants arc in nnd
around Blakely, by “upwards of a
good deal,'’ and afford no little pleas
ure to till concerned, (and lots are
concerned ns a general thing on such
•ccasions).
Well, we nrc here, and the pros
pects for n profitable session are very
good, and wc arose this (Saturday,)
inorniug, donned our best clothes,
and after partaking of a breakfast
that would have come up to the ideas
of the most fastidious, wc made our
way to the Methodist church, the place
where the conference was to convene;
reaching there we found the various
delegations on hand, all dressed up,
with cheerful nnd smiling faces, all of
which indicated that .they had been
well cared for,and were ready for bus
iness.
Promptly at l) o’clock the confer
ence was opened by singing by the
congregation and prayer by the Bish
op, or we should have said presiding
elder, well let it go~so, for Dr. Hin
ton ought to he a bishop, if preaching
ability hits anything to do with the
make up of a bishop. Ho is a grand
old soldier of the cross, and a deep
and profound thcologinn, and as such
is entitled to the highest honors that
could be conferred upon him by the
church. After the conference was
opened, the regular routine of busi
ness begun by the election of Bro. Ry
der secretary; after which on account,
of the immense amount of work at
tending tlic duties of the secretary, it
was deemed necessary that there
should bo an assistant, so our voting
Bro. from Thomasvillc, Mr. K. It.
Evans, wlto was acting as alternate in
Metcalfe Mention.
Editor TiHKS-ExTKnftisK :
On Saturday Inst the colored peo
ple had a dinner on the plantation of
Mr. J. M. Rusltin, just across the
Flotida line. During the day a quar
rel, by factions from the eastern and
western side of Ward’s creek, was
engaged in, involving* half a hundred
or more, in which bnse ball hats, clubs,
knives, pistols &c played a prominent
part. With one exception, none
wero seriously hurt, though a good
many carry bruises to a more or less
extent. January James received
three bad wounds, one ill the abdo
men, one in the chest and one in tho
head from either one of which he may
die. Dr. W. B. Watkins attended
the unfortunate man, and up to this
writing reports hitn doing as well as
could be expected, but no positive
assurance of recovering.
Metcalfe school held its closing
exercises on Friday last. The exami
nations were attended by a goodly
number of the patrons nnd friends
of the school, and wc arc glad to
know all were well pleased with the
advances made. Prof. Berry ranks
second to none in the state ns a teach
er, nnd with Miss M. C. English,
herself an experienced teacher, and
whose influence and tutoring ends
not with books nnd the school room
alone, ns assistant, our school is on
institution of which our cit : ".eus are,
and justly, proud. At night a rich
programme consisting of Tableaux
Charades &c., was in store, aud each
and everyone was fully up to the
highest expectation. To individual
ise would make these notes too long,
but two or three deserve s|>ceinl men
tion viz:
“A Prophecy,’ * 1 n composition by
Miss Blanche Rushin, was exceeding
ly good, nnd painted Metcalfe t»f the
future in more vivid colors than here
tofore her most firm believers had
ever pictured.
Then come Master Willie Stringer
in a.speech, in therolo ot a green gaw
ky school boy, and how ho was going
to “lick” the teacher. Master Willie
has fine conception a wonderful de
livery and his rendition brought down
the house.
Following upon that was “The Bo
gus Doctor,,, by Masters Will David
son nnd Johnnie Thomas, in burnt
cork. They beat Cuffie himself acting
the “nigger.”
The entire exercises were varied
and interesting, as they had to be, to
hold the packed audience and the
weather so oppressively hot.
This closes the first session of Met
calfe school, and tho high grade to
which it has nttained is indeed grati
fying.
25,000 watermelons were shipped
over the T. & M. Ry. Monday. Did
you ever look upou that much disgui
sed misery at one time? Let ’em roll,
for in their stead comes tho henevo-
lent clink of bright silver dollars and
the silken touch of crisp bank bills.
Tho first mail, under the new con
tract for a route from here to Micco-
sukie, arrived this a. m. This makes
Metcalfe a distributing point, nnd
gives us more convenient mail ser
vice. If we could get mail from Mon-
cello now, and have every train a mail
train, wc would ask nothing more in
that line nnd would be a contented
people.
Didn’t somebody say it was hot ?
The mercury stood 100° in the shade
a day or two since, nnd might have
gone higher, but we were afraid to
look any more. Pinson says if Hades
is any hotter than the weather wc
have been having, there will bo no
use to send him there for ho couldn’t
stand it.
Politics arc so quiet you could hear
a brick house fall down, but in the in
terval between melon realization and
cotton expectation, candidates will be
given a chance to get in their ominous
hand shaking. G. K. L.
