Home seemed to think it was on the decline and offered some sug gestions that would Ik 1 helpful to its growth if put in practice, some seemed to l>e satisfied with the present condition of religious at- fairs, and one brother seemed to feel pretty good because it is easier to raise money now than it was 40 years ago. Itut is it any reason that Christianity is growing be cause people give more money than they used tot Your humble scribe thinks not, but is of the opinion that it's ou the decline in this part of the world, and would like to have made a few remarks to that effect, but being of the sex that is commanded to keep silent, we held our peace. I’eoplc give money some times because they don’t want Homebody else to get ahead of them; but the Ituok Hays “a cheerful giver.” Now one tenth of everything we eceive belongs to the Lord, and that don’t take anything off of out giving. What we give above that is u freewill offering; and that is where the “cheerful giver” comes n at. It is not near as hard to pay back anything that has been mi rowed as it is to give the same amount. It is not so much any way in what we give;or how much, but the spirit in which we give. There are a great many ways in which we can give without giving money. We can give our prayers, time, influence ami service. The Pharisee of old thought he was a cheerful giver” when he stood ii]> and said lie thanked God Unit he was not us other men, and said “I give tithes of all I possess How many do that these daysf The writer was talking with a young man not long ago, who said lie quit* going to church because the preacher was always ueggiug for money and he was tired of it. We found out that his salary was ten dollars a week, and he had ward, but if we give all we have to feed the poor, and even give our bodies to Ik* burned and have not the love of God in our hearts and the indwelling of the holy spirit, it is not worth anything.

REYNOLDS Grocer Greeneville St. Bion Williams Will Run in the Democratic Primary. Col. Bion Williams, tlie genial editor of the Woodbury Messen ger, and brother of Postmaster K. I,. Williams, of Griffin, was in the city yesterday mingling with his friends. Col. Williams is one of the old time Populist leaders of Meriwether and the Fourth Con gressional district and was asked whether the Populists would put out a candidate for governor 01- put all their trust in Hoke Smith. He did not seem inclined to answer the latter part of the question, but said he did not think the Populists would pul out a candidate of their own. “But 1 do know wlnit 1 am go ing to do.” said Col. Williams. “1 am going in the primary as a candidate for the Democratic nomi nation for senator in the thirty- fourth district, composed of the counties of Meriwether, Coweta, Heard and Campbell, this being Meriwether’s time to name the man.” This being the first intimation to his question that Bion had ceased F desire a place in your columns for a few words with my friends in and about Turin. It is a strange impulse that we all understand— this one to speak with our friends. During the two years when iny home was in Turin, I met and made many such, I trust,ami more than once I have felt like speaking a friendly word, for that is all this is. Now and then, news has reached me of various events, us the visit-; ing of death in your homes, the birth of God’s little ones, the founding of new homes by mar riage, and the material prosperity of the town and surrounding coun try. In all of these 1 have felt a sympathetic participation. In your sorrows, I have sorrowed, in your joys, do I rejoice. My stay at Vanderbilt Univer sity for the past two years lias been full of both pleasure anil profit. It is truly a noble institu tion and is accomplishing much for our great Lord. My course here will be completed in June, 190(1. In conclusion, I wish to thank you for the numberless kindnesses 1 have received at your hands, and for your patient forbearance while I labored among you. It is the dear wish of my heart that you may be prospered in store-house and in barn and be kept in the peace of our God. Elam F. Dempsey. Nashville, Tenn. Newnan Marble Works, J. E.
