That gentleman presents some foots and figure.) about the year’s work that are interesting to the congre gation and every one else. The work of a church in modern times is a big basinets undertaking, bigger than most people imagine. The showing made by the Baptists is most creditable. It indicates the pros perous condition of the community, and the live Interest in things spiritual of the ohnroh. For all purposes 17587 were raised. Of this amount (667 went to missions. The good ladies of the ohnroh, and the ladies are always first in every praia- worthy endeavor, contributed (868 of this amount. To the Orphans Home $188 wassent. Eighty -eight dollars was given to the poor, and <809 went for Sunday School literature.

The revi val meeting conducted ;by Messrs Up shaw and Bealer caused the additionof 54 members. Daring the year 84 mem bers were added by clmroh letters. This is an indication of the nnm6er of new people who are coming to Thomaa- ville. The pastor preached 184 sermons aud delivered 8 addresses on special occa sions. He married 11 couples, and ilia income from this source was <44.50. The first msrriago service he performed without a fee. One c'oople was colored.
