SUCCESSFUL REVIVAL * Bein* Conducted in Birinin*tiam by I>cm. BloNNer and Culpepper. Dr. Blosser writes from Birming ham that he and Mr. Culpepper are meeting with wonderful success in conducting their revival at Birming ham. The large tabernacle in that city, which seats from 4,000 to 5,000 people, is taxed to its utmost capacity to accommodate the large crowds that attend both morning and evening services. Anniversary Service. Rev. W. T. Dale, who has been con fined to his bed for more than a week, wishes us to say that be is so far recov ered that he feels that he will be able to fill his appointment here on tomorrow. The occasion will be the 83rd anniversary of the Cumberland Presbyterian church as a separate denomination. The Aniversary Song will be a special feature of the occasion. Last year the anniversary sermon was on the line of the “Historical and Doctrinal.” This time it will be on the line of the “Practi cal.” It is recommended that the church at large observe the following week as a week of praver and self-denial, in behalf of Home Missions. It is requested that all the members of the Ladies Aid Society be present on to morrow, and further that all members of the church be present. The public generally is al ways welcome at this church; come one, come all. The invitation is made as broad as the Gospel invitation itself. Notes by the Wayside. By a North Dalton Parson. —The meetings at Hamilton street church are well attended, and a great in terest manifested both on the part of the church, and the unconverted. Method ists, Baptists and Presbyterians, are all doing what they can, working together to get souls saved. The meeting prom ises to be one of great power. - Rev. Clayton Quillian is helping the pastor in the revival meeting at Hamil ton street, and his sermons are all good. Ik> is a very earnest Christian worker. —Preaching at Hamilton street Sunday at 11 a. m. by Rev. G. J. Orr, and at night by the pastor. —North Dalton is greatly in need of a postoiHce. Some good man is going to take steps to get one, we are told. —M. I). Smith will preach at Five Springs today and tomorrow’. —The editor of The Argus palmed off his old fighting rooster on a certain preacher in town, and now to pass by that parsonage you would be amused; it looks like a regular cock-pit. There is no telling what some people will do. Wanted—A Salesman. We want a good salesman to run a wagon and sell our sewing machines for a Dalton firm. Salary or commission, or both paid to the right man. A man entirely new’ to the business and under 35 years of age preferred. Ap ply to H. W.

If the latter, we are much obliged, as well as thankful for the present balmy spring weather. We note a number of our farmers pre paring ground for sowing oats and plant-’ ing gardens. It really seems that spring is about to break forth in all its har monious melody—that the chime upon one hill will soon echo that on another, and all nature eagerly behold the fasci nating picture and listen to its soothing lullaby.
