Soul hem HHlioriist luler est. A representative of the Express was fortunate Monday to he in company with Dr. J. B. McEerrin, agent of the South ern M. E. publishing house. He was en route home from a quick trip, in which he had done good service for the church ’iii Montgomery, Ala., La Grange and Washington in this State. The old Chris tian soldier is usually quiet, observant of locations on his line of travel, and when Adairsville was announced he remarked promptly that, “111 1828 I was about a mile from here, just across there,” point ing the direction, “at a campmeeting on Oothcaloga. The Indians Were hcie then.” A strangor could hardly have believed that the speaker was a minister on the j occasion refefed to. His smoothly shaven j face gives hint a much younger appear ance than did his gray heard. YveE, the doctor was in excellent spir- 1 its. Referring to the interests of the ! church he said that about $240,000 of the bonds had been taken, and that lie ! anticipates 110 trouble in getting purelt- j users for the others in a few months more. ! This amount, it is expected, will entirely relieve the church of other indebtedness; “And” said ho, “before one of these bonds are issued, 1 intend to see that it • will give the relief anticipated. Not only so, hut I intend to have the coni- j 'm it tee give the statement in writing, j that they believe the bonds are good, and that they will he paid. Also that the interest will he paid semi-annually as stipulated on the bonds.” j He expects to he done with all such la bors before the forty years shall have ex- ; pirod, and under no circumstances would heinducc any one to invest The did j not believe that they, or those who* come after them, would realize the valfie of what the church proposes to pledge. 'The prsent management ol tin publish ing interest js altogether as successful as could have been expected Air. Palmer, of Dalton, who was appointed general' manageiqlgreatW relieves the agent, who j could not attend the duties at the house and attend to the disposal of the bonds. Dr. Young is assisting him greatly in placing the bonds. The receipts for the year just closed are more than double those of last year. The periodicals arc doing well. Replying to the query, the doctor said that, the railroad companies generally do not accommodate, but he c * .'mentioned kindness from the Louisville tb (Jreat Southern, and then referring to the Nashville, Chattanooga A St, Louis, said: Cole and Thomas are clever as can he asked in our cause, and they shall never loose by it. “I had a compliment paid me last night. I found that the trains did not connect from Washington to Atlanta, and 1 was miGEi) to he home in the morning, and wo*thl you think it? General Toombs chartered the train and sent it down to Harnett just to take me, and there was no body in ihe Lain hut me—why he was the first man to walk up and sub scribe foi a thousand dollars of the bonds!” The settlement with liis predecessor, l)r. Red fold, it is hoped wil’ soon he accomplished. Tha committee lias liad much trouble with it. 1 lie Christian public desires that it he accomplished without resort to the courts.

The man who now lies dead, deprived of life by a professional desperado and outlaw, is a Ml. Keener, a fanner living near Tel lie 3, • in Monroe c- ttmv, w here the murdei j to>)k place.
