ter of Eastern Star Masons,of which the
wives, daughters or sisters of Masons

ley laidge is in a flourishing condition
and steadily advancing.
With oil’ friend, Mr. John Quatle-
hauin, we enjoyed a pleasant ride out
1o the home *f Mr. (). II. Sanders a
few evenings since. Oscar has re¬
cently built quite a handsome resi-
denee and made many other improve¬
ments. lie has a well equipped saw
mill and ginnery, and on every hand
may be seen indications of his well
known enterprise and push.

Rev. Mr. Farrell, the new pastor of
the M. E. Church, with his family, ar¬
rived a few day since, and they are
now pleasantly domiciled at the par-
nonage. Several members of the
church, ladies and gentlemen, went
round to the parsonage on the after¬
noon of their pastor’s arrival, and hav¬
ing put every thing about the premis¬
es in order and provided the pantry
with a liberal supply of groceries, they
prepared an excellent supper and re-
maincd to “break bread with the
tor and his family, and to otherwise
impress them of their cordial welcome
bv the church ami citizens generally.
The evening was yerv pleasantly spent
and Mr. Farrell was no doubt made
to feel that his “lines are cast in pleas-
ant places.” lie preached his first
sermon here last Sunday aluwnoon,
and while it was not his regular day to
preach here and the services intend-
vd more as a means of draw ing the
people together for mutual acquaint.
ance than as the occasion of a regular
discourse, his hearers were very favor*
ably impressed by his remarks. He
seems to be a man of reasonable reas-
oning, much learning and devout elms-
tiaii character, and we believe he will
be popular with his church inL . mber
ship and the public accomplish generally, which
will enable him to great
goml in the work for which he is sent.

Mu. Editor:__
Will you please give me a little
of your space to say good-bye
to our many friends in the Fori
Gaines Charge. Also; to thank them
f or their many acts of kindness to us
during our two years sojourn in their
midst. It would he impossible for us
to remember every word of apprecia-
tioii and act of kindness, but we will
not forget to ask the good Father above
to remember and reward every one of
them: and we are assured that He will
do it, for Ha luit'i said “Whatsoever
ye do unto the least of my deciplcs
you do unto me,” therefore, they shall
not loose their reward. We reached
Ga., our new home, at I r. m
yestesdax , and found a warm hearted
welcome, which means, a comfortable
well furnished parsonage, made doubly
elio.erful yesterday-afternoon, by the
" ",
glowing , oak , c fires, the heavily laden ,
supper table, the well filled pantry,
three wagon loads of oak wood and
the presence of several good men and
women with words of welcome, and
colored brother Ike Strong,who was on
hand to do the brother white preacher
any favors in thq way of little jobs that
he might want now and then, We
left you people of Fort Gaines,
ling your tears over the new made
grave of Mrs. Wells, a Christian
cr buried in your midst. We found
the people of Plaines in like manner
nioum ing the death of Mrs.
another Christian mother, whom God
in his wisdom had taken from a home
whore a husband and seven young ehil
dren are left to lament the abser.se of
wife and mother. Sad as the two
scenes have made us, we are thankful
of one great lesson which they have
both forc cd upon our minds, and that
is, ,he mighty influence of our cliris-
tian religeon, as manifested in the
lives of these two Christian mothers,
wbo ba< ^ ^ X(1 fed such an influence in
their renpeetivc eircle«, a.-s to caune the
tears of grief to flow down the cheeks
of all classes and conditions of
acquaintances. It was this blessed in-
fluence which made master and slave
pray, sing and shout together before
the war, love and trust one another
dur^ chVistiau the war, and we bless God that
this influence is still exerting
itself fn more ways, than one, to solve
problems that have baffled human wis-
dom and statesmanship,
Yours truly.
