Minister’s and Deacon’s Meeting.
The Washington Baptist Associa
tion hold their Annual Minister's
and Deacons’ meeting in this place
on Friday before the fifth Sunday in
this month. A large attendance is
expected. Wo understand that din
ner will bo prepared on tho ground
at tho Baptist church each day, our
people will open their houses and
tho hospitalities of tho city bo exten
ded to tho visitors who will be made
welcome to our hearths aud homes.
Capt P. R. Taliaferro, Capt. Thos.E.
Brown and G. W. Kelly, Esq., have
boon appointed as a committee to
provide homes for those who desire
them during the continuance of tlm
meetiug.
IIow Watches are Made.
It will be apparent to auy one, who
will examine a Solid Gold Watch, that
aside from the necessary thickness for
engraving and polishing a large propor
tion of the precious metal used, is nee
ded only to stiffen ntid hold the engrav
ed portions in place, and supply the
[necessary solidity and strength. The
surplus gold is actually needfess so far
ns utility andltoauty arc concerned. In
•Iames Boss’ Patent Gold Watoii
Cases, this waste of precious metal is
overcome, and the same solidity and
strength produced at from one-third to
one-lmlf of the usual cost of solid cases.
I his process is of the most simple na
ture, as follows: A plate of nicklc
composition metal, cspenially adapted
to the purpose, has two plates of solid
gold soldered on each side. The three
are then passed between polished steel
rollers, and tho result is a strip of heavy
plated composition, from which the
cases, backs, centres, bezels, &e., are
cut and shaped by suitable dies and for
mers. The gold in these cases is suf
ficiently thick to ndmit of all kinds of
chasing, engraving and enameling ; the
engraved cases have lieen carried until
worn perfectly smooth by time and use
without removing the gold.
Ibis is the only ease made with two
plates of Solid Gold and wurrauted by
special certificate.

John Hoath a native of our coun

wife und three children on a visit to
his mother and while there was
stricken down with Typhoid fever of
which ho died on Wednesday last,
August 11th. His bereaved family
aud his aged and affectionate moth
er have the warmest sympathies of
our whole people.
Mrs. Mary Mathis aged about sev
enty-five years, was on Friday night
last summoned to another and a bet
ter world; kind and charitable she
has many friends who now mourn
her loss. She was one of the oldest
residents of our city ( and will be
greatly missed.
Miss Amanda Webster daughter ol
Wm. Webster, Etq., died on lire 12tn
tilB t., of Typhoid fever. yhe
was kind and amiable in disposition
and had many friends, young und
vigorous, with bright anticipations
of the future and the promise of u
long aud happy life she has been
summoned to her Mister’s kingdom.
Sue was loved by all, a Christian la
dy, refined and accomplished, a large
circle of relatives and friends now
mourn her early death. “May she
rest in peace.”
Miss Braswell duughtor of
the late Asa Braswell, aged about 19
years, died of Typhoid fever on Fri
day last at the resilience of her moth
or near Piney Mount church. She
was young and popular, refined und
domestic and hud many friends who
loved her for her many virtues. Her
relatives and friends have tho heart
felt sympathies of thff community.
Mrs. Molten Ridges, a lady pos
sessed of mauy Christian virtues,
kind, aflectionate aud charitable, died
August 10th of Typhoid fever. She
loaves a largo family of relatives und
mauy friends who grieve over libr
dissolution. We sympathise with
them for in her death we feel the
church has parted with one who was
always an honor to its teachings, and
whoso example us a christiul woman
was worthy of emulation.
