Tho committed appointed to prepare n programme for our approaching an niversary occasion, announce tho fol lowing as tho order to bo obsorved : Tho Brethren of tho Masonic Fra ternity will assemblo at tho Lodge room at 9 o’clock, a. m., and after the necessary arrangements have beon made, tho procession, under tire di rection of tho Marshal, will be formed in front of the Masonic Hall, and, pro ceded by the Dawson Braes Band, will march West to Main street, then North to the cross street running by Prince’s Livery Stable, then East to tho Bap tist Church.

A Card. The friends of both parties beg of them that if they can conscientiously subscribe to the f oliowing suggestions and propositions, that each of them append their names hereto, not only for the purpose of restoring former good feeling, aud as a guarantee of pleasant relations in future, hut as staled evidence oi regret ior what has passed, and to cancel harsh thoughts and words indulged in by each of them, both in private and public; remembering that hasty judgments, fired by hasty tempers, olleu lead to trouble, and that civil law does not sympathize with acts perpetrated under such circumstances, nor docs the "Code of Honor” present modes for the settlement of difficulties upon Chris tian principles. It appearing that the first published article by Mr. iiart, in consequence oi a conversa tion bad wi’h Mr. Greer during Court week, is the foundation of this ill-feeling, is it not possib'e to harmonize the conversation ? And while it is true that the impression was cre ated in Mr. Hart’s mind that a settlement was agreed upon, is it not probable that Mr. Greet’* reply was to the effect that so far as his vote was concerned ihe matter should be settled; for reason would dictate that Mr. Greer could not rescind the action cl Coun cil without the consent of the same ; and we pray that Mr. Greer will acknowledge neglect on iris part (or not informing Mr. Hart of the non refusal of Council to accede to the prop osition. Taking this view of the matter, does it not appear that both parties could have been, and were in error, without the least intention'on the part of either to injure the other, either in purse or character: It certainly docs. Now, having removed, as we think we have, tho cause for the onset of Mr. Hart, we kindly, and in Christian chari ty, ask him to withdraw his card, and fur ther ask him to admit of an honesty of pur- pose on the part of Mr. Greer. This conceded, we ask Alt. Greer to pub licly retract everything of a defamatory character concerning Mr. Uart, and with draw his card ; ns we think every epithet in dulged in would grate with harshness on hid Christian feelings in his cooler momenta. If the above suggestions meet with your approval, sign hereto your name, and the Editor of the Dawsos Jocknal will gladly publish the card making known tho fact that this unfortunate difficulty lias been honora bly settled, that both parties have expressed regret at the course ol affairs, aud Christian fellowship has been restored. r T 3.

That the thanks of this body are hereby tendered to tho citizens of Lumpkin and vicinity for tho elegant hospitality lavished upon us, and to the members of the Baptist and l’res byterian churches for the fraternal tender of their houses of worship. Tho preaching of tlio gospel was ac companied with the Spirit, and mourn ers crowded tho altar almost every time an opportunity was offered. On Sunday morning* after a power ful sermon by Uncle Sam Anthony, a collection was taken up for the bene fit of the Orphan’s Home, when over fifteen hundred dollars was given in money and subscriptions. Sabbath afternoon will not soon bo forgotten by the visitors. It was do voted to tho Sunday School —which is under the superintondency of Dr. Bar nuin, and one of the fiuost schools in tlio District. The splendid singing of tho school, and tho weil-limod ad dresses of our old friend Rylander, Rev’s. J. 33 McGehee and G. S. John son, rendered the occasion delightfully interesting.
