The fairly good prices cotton is

itself felt in the beginning of the

Those farmers of Atkinson coun

months.
The merchants are also more
optimistic. They are putting in
splendid stocks of merchandise
suitable for this section and are
expecting a brisk trade from hence
forth.
The banks are also feeling cheer

■meetings to be held in Dearson and
vicinity.
It stated that the assoeiational
meeting of the Original Smyrna
Association would beat. New Beth
el church on the third Sunday in
October. Friday and Saturday be
fore. The Tribune's mistake was
in the date, which should have
been the fourth Sunday, Friday
and Saturday before —the same
time of the meeting of Smyrna as
soeiation at Dearson.
The New Bethel annual meeting
will be next. Sunday—the third
Sunday in September—and this is
the fact that caused the mistake.
I’he people of New Bethel commu
nity are expecting a great meeting
to-day, tomorrow and Sunday—
great attendance upon the services;
great interest manifested in things
pertaining to the kingdom of God,
and a great manifestation of the
Spirit of God in the salvation of
the unsaved. They cordially invite
all to attend.
Don’t forget that the Assoeia
tional meeting is on the fourth
Sunday in October, Friday and
Saturday before.

vice was led by Elder Richard

Guthrie’s discourse a recess of
twenty five minutes was given for
the people to rest and refresh
themselves.
After recess the members of the
church reassembled themselves
and observed the Lord’s supper
