mencement of the year to arrange the
work for the traveling and local preach
ers.
The Committee on Finances report that
in some of the circuits the preachers will
not receive their disciplinary allowance,
while in others they will be fully paid.
The assessmentof (heConference for mis
sions in this District will be fully met.
They recommend that the stewards on
such circuiis devise more liberally for
their pa-tors, and proposed a plan for more
efficient collections.
The Commii'ce on the Interests of Colored
People recommend that we give them an
hearty co-operation in buildiDg up Sab
bath schools and preaching the Gospel
among them ; that we will, when proper
t o do so, give them license to preach and
exhort They recommend the formation
of circuits among them as soon as practi
cable.
The Committee on the state of the Church
report it in a healthy condition. While
t! ere is much to deplore, there is much
for which we ought to betbaDkful; and
on the whole, they believe Christianity is
on rising ground in the District. Many
of our people are waking up to a sense of
their duty. In some places where family
altars had been thrown down, they are
again raised up, aud prayer and praise to
God are tieard, and at least half our peo
ple have family prayer. Class meetings
are being revived, and n many places in
the districts, extensive revivals have oc
curred, and many have been added to the
church. They recommend that the moral
discipline of the church be enforced, and
that thechurch sustain the preacher in the
effort to euforce it; that both preachers
and people work to revive old-fashioned
class-meetings among us.
The following brethren were elected as
delegates to the Annual Convention : J.

Hodges; alternates, Wan. Hardie, W. E.
Bouthwell, J. L Dirtier, D. McArthur.
The next District meeting to De held at
Tatnall Camp-ground.
The pastor's of the various charges made
their reports, aii of which showed that
the work of the Lord is prospering in this
District.
In connection with the District-meeting
a camp-meeting was held, ana, no doubt,
great good effected. Besides the preachers
of the district, there was a number of vis
iting brethren present—among them that
venerable aud beloved man of God, Rev.
Dr. L vick PiEKCB. He preached five
sermons, and to say that they were good,
would but poorly represent them. They
were d.-ep, pungent and Scriptural, and
many will rejoice in eternity that the op
portunity was offered them to sit under
his ministry. Bros. W. T. Robison, Win.
Griffin, and John W. Burke were present
and labored during the meeting, and
preached with acceptability to our people.
A resolution of thanks to our visiting
brethren for their pr« sence and labors
was unanimously passed by the District
meeting; al-o one to the President and
Secretaries for their efficient services, and
to the tent-holders for their kindness aud
hospitality.
A committee was appointed to draft a
suitable report of the meeting, for publi
cation in the Southern Christian Advocate.
The District meeting adjourned with
the benediction. Lewis B. Payne,

“ The Temperance Family.”
By virtue of a resolution submitted at
the last meeting, to appoint a committee
of President, Vice President, and the two
former Presidents, to write for publica
tion a report of the origin aud progress of
the “Temperance Family," said com
mittee has the honor to submit the follow
ing :
Early in February last a few gentlemen
and ladies of Cedar Valley, seeing the
rapid growth of intemperance in the com
munity, conceived the idea of organizing
a Temperance .Society, aud to this end,
met on the lOtli day of ttie month aud
organized by adopting a Constitution, By-
Laws and Initiatory Cereinonv,. untier
the name of “The Temperance Family."
Meeting with hut slight opposition, this
little handful has continued to increase,
until its numbers are counted by scores
aud hundreds. Gentlemen from a distance
visiting (lie place have been so much
pleased at the practical workings and re
sults of the order, as to apply for permis
sion to organize Branch Families in their
respective counties. These Branch Fami
lies are established at Kingston and Ham
ilton, Ga., and at Warrior Stand, Macon
county, Ala , and are in a flourishing and
working condition. Towns or communi
ties wishing to organize Branch Families
may do so by sending some suitable per
son to be initiated at this place or to either
of the Branch Families. If at the Branch
Family, it will he necessary for the Presi
dent aud Secretary of said Branch Family
to send a certificate of the fact to this
place, when the Pareut Family will
furnish to sad applicants copies of our
Constitution, By-Laws and Initiatory Cer
emony, with permission to organize. To
make the exercises pleasant and instruc
tive, there is added a debate at each meet
ing, witli original essays from the ladies,
and other proliiable iutellectural exercises.
The ceremonies are secret. All persons
over fourteen years of age, male ami fe
male, of good character are eligible for
membership. The ladies add greatly to
its prosperity, influence and power.
We oppose no Temperance organization,
but bid them “God speed" iu the noble
cause of reform. The Temperance Fami
ly is constrained to make this brief report
from a knowledge of the great good and
the many reformations it has accomplish
ed at this place ami with the hope that
good may he extended to all sections of
the country.

Cedar Town, Ga., Oct. Ist.
The Tennessee Colored Conference.
This body held its third sessiou in Ca
pets Chapel, Nashville, Sept. 29—Oct. 3.
Bishop Paine presided. He organized
this Conference—the first of its kind—in
Jackson, Tenn., Nov. 1807. Last year it
met in Memphis—and as the most of its
membership is embraced within the liru»
its of tlie Memphis Conference, it is called
the Colored Memphis Conference of the
M. E Church, South. T. N. Stuart and
J. W. Lane, members, were the Secreta
ries. Tne Revs. J. H. Brooks, McKamie,
and Taylor were preseut, assisting in
Miuute business. These brethren have
taken much interest in the Colored
Churches, and have materially aided in
their organization and development. Be
fore the close, Bishop McTyeire arrived
from Kentucky, and took part iu the
proceedings. On Sunday, at 11 am.,
Bishop Paine preached aud ordained 28
deacons; in the afternoou, 6 elders; at
night, after votes of thanks duly ren
dered, the Appointments were read out,
and Conference adjourned, to meet next
year iu Brownsville, Tenn.
The congregat ions were large and well
behaved. Besides the multitudes of col
ored people who atteuded. several of our
leading white citizens and friends were
present from time to time, aud were most
favorably impressed. The General Con
ference-pian of organizing our colored
membership into a separate ecclesiastical
jurisdiction looks hopeful from the stand
fioiut of an Anoual Conference in work
ng order. The Bishops are much en
couraged witli this experiment, now in
its third year. They will go forward
carefully, but hopefully. Os course, dif
ficulties are iu the way—but where shall
we not flod them ? We are persuaded,
more thau ever persuaded, that the best
hope of the colored people lies in the suc
cess of this plan, l'he preachers have
been firm and stable in their trusts and
charges to a degree that ought to give
confidence to those who need it. The
members have increased. They have
found favor with the people. They are
building churches, and putting the Dis
trict. circuit, and station work into per
manent form. The moral and education
al qualifications for orders are be:ng
raised and rigidly insisted on. Let our
preachers bestow help aud cooperation.
Help them in their Sunday-schools—help
them to build hou-es of worship—help
them as they have need Dr. Watson

Progress of Protestantism in Mexico
-Half Year’s WorK at the Capital.
The Christian World for October cou»
tains an interesting report from Rev. Mr.
Riley, the Protestaut missionary in the
city of Mexico, about the results of bis
labors. He says:
“What is tbe work connected witli this
mission to Mexico at the close of this half
year? Sixteen evangelical congregations,
ministered to by natives, are connected
with this mission, or under its influence.
Ten more are expected to be soon organ
ized—ami fifty more might be started were
the funds at my disposal.
“By means of our press an effective
tract work has beeu carried on that has
spread gospel truth in this capital and
throughout the nation. A ciieap and
popularly edited paper, (El Ferrocaril,)
designed to advocate a Christian civili
zation, has been established, and has al
ready a long listof subscribers. It is pub
lished three times a week, and we intend
that it shall soou be issued daily, Sundays
excepted.
“A considerable body of voluntary la
borers are working in the gospel cause.
Borne of these occupy positions of influ
ence, aud are persons of culture. In this
hand of laborers there are some ladies. A
class to prepare young meu for evangel
ists and ministers has been formed, aud
six young lawyers have joined it. A
Bible depot has been started in the lead
ing street, and Lite Bible cause put on a
far more effective footing than before, the
Agent of the B. and F, Bible Society hav
ing (as he told me) determined to advise
his Society to abandon Mexico. The lit
tle band of Protestams I found six mouths
ago, dishearteued and divided, to-day are
enthusiastically active aud full of hope
and courage. The Bible agent says that
the progress tiiat the gospel cause lias
made here during tbe last few months is
most asioni-hing. That cause, tiy God’s
blessing, may be deemed to be effectively
planted in this capital and neighborhood.
"If the American church will strougly
sustain these missinus in Central aud
North Mexico, in a few months one hun
dred evangelical congregations can be es
tablished iu this sister Republic, aud be
fore loug it may reasonably be expected
that the majority iu Mexico will declare
in favor of Hie evangelical Church.”
Letter of Father llyacinthe.
The following is the text of the letter
which, as advised by Cable, Father Hya
cinthe has addressed to the General of his
order in Rome :
Mx Very Revebend Father— During the
five years of my ministry at Notre Dame de
l’ans, despite the open attacks aud secret
accusations of which I have beeu the object,
your esteem aud confidence have never failed
me for a moment. I preserve numerous tes
timonies of them written by your own hand,
and which were addressed as much to my
preaching as to myself. Whatever may hap
pen, I shall hold them in grateful remem
brance. To-day, however, by a sudden
change, the cause of which I do not seek iu
your heart, but in the intrigues of a party
ail powerful at Rome, you arraign what you
encouraged, you censure what you approved,
aud you require that I should speak a lan
guage or preserve a silence which would no
longer be the entire aud loyal expression of
my- conscience. I do not hesitate an instant.
With language perverted by a command, or
mutilated by reticence, I shall not ascend
the pulpit at Notre Dame. 1 express my re
gret for this to the intelligent and courage
ous Archbishop who has given his pulpit to
me, aud sustained me there against the bad
will of men of whom I shall speak at the
proper time. I express my regrets to the
imposing auditory' who surrounded me there
with its attention, its sympathies, I was
nearly going to say' its friendship. I woidd
not be worthy of the auditory of the Arch
bishop, of my conscience, nor of God, if I
would consent to act before them in such a
role.' I separate myself at the same time
from the convent in which I have resided,
anil which under the new circumstances that
have happened to me renders it for me a
prison ol the soul. In acting thus lam not
unfaithful to my vows. I have promised
monastic obedience, but limited by the hon
esty of conscience, the dignity of my person
and my ministry, I have promised under the
benefit of that superior law of justice and of
royal liberty which is, according to the Apos
tle St. James, the proper law of the Chris
tian.
It is for the more perfect practice of this
holy liberty that I came to ask at the clois
ter, now more than ten years ago, in the
elan of an enthusiasm free of all human cal
culation, I shall not venture to add free of
all the illusion of youth: If, in exchange for
my sacrifices, lam to-day offered chains, I
have not only the right but the duty to re
ject them. The present hour is solemn.
The church passes through one of the most
violent, dark, and decisive crises of its ex
istence here below. For the first time in 300
years, an (Ecumenical Council is not only
convoked but declared necessary ; such is the
expression of the Holy Father.' It is not in ,
such a moment that a preacher of the gos
pel, were he the last of all, can consent to
remain as the mute dogs of Israel, unfaith
ful guardians, whom the prophet reproaches
as unable to bark. Canes muti, non valentes
latrare. The saints were never silent. I
am not one of them, but nevertheless 1 be
long to their race, Jilii sanctorum sum us, and
I have always been ambitious to place my
steps, my tears, and, if necessary, my blood,
iu the tracks which they have left. I raise,
therefore, before the Holy Father and the
Council, my protestation as Christian and
preacher against these doctrines and prac
tices, calling themselves Roman, but which
are not Christian, aud which in their en
croachments, always most audacious and
most baneful, tend to change the constitu
tion of the Church, the basis as well as the
form of her teaching, and even the spirit of
her piety. I protest against the divorce, as
impious as it is insane, which it is sought to
accomplish between the church, who is our
mother according to eternity, and the so
ciety of the nineteenth century, of whom we
are the sons according to the times, and to
ward whom we have also some duties and
attachments. I protest against this more
radical and dreadful opposition to human
nature, which is attacked and made to re
volt by these false doctrines in its most in
destructible and holiest aspirations.
I protest above all against the sacrilegious
perversion of the Word of the Son of God
himself, the spirit and the letter of which
are equally trodden under foot by the Pha
risaism of the new law It is my most pro
found conviction that if France in particu
lar, and the Latin races in general, are
delivered over to social, moral, and religious
ararehy, the principal cause is without
doubt not in Catholicism itself, but in the
manner which Catholicism has daring a long
time been understood and practiced. I
appeal to the Council about to meet, to seek
for remedies for the excess of our evils, and
to apply them with as much force as gentle
ness. But if fears in which Ido not wish to
share, come to be realized, if the august
assembly has not more liberty in its delibera
tions than it has already in its preparation, if,
in a word, it is deprived of the assential char
acters of an (Ecumenical Council, I will cry
to God and meu to call another truly united
in the Holy spirit, not in the spirit of party,
andrepresentingreally the Universal Church,
not the silence of some men, the oppression
of others. “For the heart of the daughter
of my people am I hurt; I am black ;
astonishment hath taken hold on me. Is
there no balm in Gilead ? Is there no physi
cian thero ? Why then is not the health of
the daughter of my people recovered.”—
Jeremiah, viii. In fine, I appeal to your
tribunal. O Lord Jesus ! Ad tuum Dcrmine
Jesn tribunal appello. It is in your presence
that I write these lines ; it is at your feet
after having prayed much, reflected, suffered,
and waited much, that I sign them. I have
confidence that if men condemn them on
earth you approve them in Heaven. That is
sufficient for me living and dying.

Explorers Returning.—News of the
ill fated Sir John Franklin comes to us not
only from the shores of tbe Pacific, but
from Greenland aud the Northeast. Dr.
C F. Hall, tiie veteran Arctic explorer,
who sailed for the frozen seas from New
Loudon, Ct., June, 1864, in the ship Mon
ticeilo, fitted out by Mr. Henry Griuueli,
with the aid of Messrs. R H. Chapel, H.
Robinson, Professor Bacbe and others,
and who was heard from Dec. 1864, aud
July, 1866, arrived at New Bedford, Mass ,
the 26th inst., iu the ship Ausil Gibbs,
from Repulse Bay, August 23d. He brings
with him two Esquimaux and their
daughters. His five years’ residence iu
the Arctic regions has not been without
results. He is able to report interesting
intelligence iu regard to the death of Bir
John Franklin aud his companions, and
conclusive proof that none of them ever
reached Montreal Island He saw na«.
tivis who were the last to look upon Cro
zier and his party. The Doctor brings
with him the remains of a young man
who belonged to that ill-fated band of
explorers, aud also various relics of the
explorations. He has prepared a report,
addressed to bis friend Mr. Heury Grin
uell, of New York, which will soon be
given to the public through the Press.
Dr. Hall is by no means tired of explora
tion, and proposes next spring to start
anew and push his journeying to the
North Pole. He regards his ex, erieuce
of the last ten years las invaluable to him
as a preparation aud aid in the future. In
his rep irt alluded to he says : " Wherev

panions died 1 erected monuments, fired
salutes, aud waved the Star Spangled
Banner over them in memory of the dis

GENERAL NEWS.
Wilmington, October s.—This morning the
case of the Cuban privateer was carried before
General Alien Rutherford, United States Com
missioner, District Cape Fear. Judge Pierson aud
French appeared fur the Government, and George
Davis, Esq., andJuilgeO. P. Meers for defendants.
The parlies were arraigned on the charge that they
did accept and exercise a commission to serve a
foreign people in war, to-wit: to the people of
Cuba against the people of Spain, a country with
which the United States is at peace, and did lit out
and arm, and did procure, to be lilted out and
armed with the limits of the United States, a cer
tain ship or vessel called the Cuba, with intent
that said vessel shall be employed in service of the
people of Cuba to cruize aud commit hostilities
against the people of Spain, a country with which
the United States is at peace, and did enlist and
serve on board of said ve-acl with intent to cruize
and commit hostilities a-ainst people oT Spain, in
violation of the statutes of the United Slates, of
Act of Congress of 20th April, 1818.
The Government not pressing the matter, parties
were not required to give bonus for appearance at
the time specified, but were placed iu custody of
U. S. Marshal Neff, who released them on parole
on their personal assurance that they would not
attempt to leave. Counsel for the Government
made the point that the vessel had beeu titted out
iu the United Slates, as charged iu the indictment,
to cruise and commit hostilities against a Govern
ment with which the United States is at peace, in
order to make it a prima facie case, and they asked
for continuance, to allow lime to secure the pre
sence of witnesses for the Governme.it from New
York and Washington.
The counsel for the defendants opposed the mo
tion for coutinuanee, contending tiiat the United
States had no right to hold the parties, as the ves
sel was commissioned by a regularly organized
Government—the Republic of Cuba. Tiiat she put
iu at Smithville in distress, and that it was con
trary to the laws of nations to detain her. Com
missioner Rutherford decided that it was a prima
facia case, and granted the Government until
Monday lLth instant, 1 o’clock, to produce wit
nesses.
Richmond, October s.—The Legislature con
vened at noou with a full attendance in the Douse.
Temporary organization was effected, with Wm.
Laughliu, of Rockbridge, Speaker, and H. G.
Jones, of Albemarle, Clerk. The body then ad
journed till to-morrow,
The Senate mit with Lieut. Governor Lewis in
the Chair. The organization was completed w ith
Davis, old incumbent, Clerk; Wirt H. Addison, old
incumbent, sergeant-at-arms; Minor, of Loudon,
first, and Abraham Rail, colored, second door
keeper.
New York, October s— The Herald’s Madrid
special reports a battle between the Republicans
and Spanish troops. The latter lost twenty killed
aud thirty eight woumled. The Republicans, one
thousand strong, after losing forty killed aud bixty
wounded, and a number captured, retreated to the
mountains.
Troy, N. Y., October 5. —The flood is unprece
dented—three drowned.
Hartford, Conn., October s.—The prostrated
telegruphs prevent transmission of returns. Hart
ford gave a Democratic majority of seven hundred.
Later —Full reports of tne flood show immense
damage. Bridges and factories are swept away,
and several lives are lost
Philadelphia, October s.—The flood is sub
siding. Freighting and travel resumed.
OMins, Octobers.—The car shops of the Union
Paeiiic Railroad have been burned. Tne loss is
very heavy.

Richmond, October 6.—ln the House, to-day,
two resolutions that the iron-clad oath he now ad
ministered to members and temporary officers
of the House, were referred to the proper commit
tee, w hen it shall be appointed.
A protest, adopted by Republican caucus last
night, was presented. It is formed with a view of
answering Attorney General Hoar’s argument, and
protests against any acts of the Legislature at this
session, the members not having taken the iron
clad oath, and the body being therefore illegal. It
was referred.
The following nominations were made for Speak
er: Zephaniah Turner, of Rappahannock; L. T.
Maddox, of Chesterfield, and John B. Crenshaw,
of Richmond. Turner, who was nominated by a
Conservative, obtained 87 votes. Maddox, nomi
nated by a Wells Republican, obtained 41 votes,
aud Crenshaw 5. Turner was declared elected.
In the discussion the point was pressed that
Turner now has an application before congress for
the removal of his political disabilities, and it was
explained that though uot able to take the test
oatli lie was not disqualiried by the 14th Amend
ment. J. B. Bigger, the old incumbent, was elected
Clerk. In the Senate the same protest of the Re
publicans’ caucus was presented, and a resolution
was adopted laying it on the table, on the ground
that it was manifestly au effort to obstruct recon;
struction and was in plain opposition to the inten
tion of Congress as expressed in toe reconstruction
acts, and in direct violation of the interpretation of
said acts by the administration.
A resolution was adopted informing the com
mandiug General of the organization of the Senate.
Adjourned.
The House chose T. C. Crittenden sergeant at
arms, and adjourned. Turner, who was elected
speaker of the house to-day, is a lawyer about 60
years old and one of the first advocates of the re
construction acts in the State. He was au old
Whig, changed to a Douglas Democrat in 1860,
and was shortly after defeated as a Union candi
date for the legislature.
Wilmington, October 6.—An entertainment on
board the Cuban sloop-of-war Cuba, was attended
by a large number of ladies aud gentlemen this
evening.
No new developements concerning the status of
the Cuba, but the public mind here is unanimous
in the opinion that she will be released soon, as the
investigation caused her to be released by the Uni
ted States authorities at Philadelphia, and by the
British authorities at Halifax, and the fact that she
,s a vessel of war, regularly commissioned by the
Cuban Government, aud not titted out iu any
United States port, seems conclusive that there is
no justification for her detention. Hon. George
Davis, ex-Attoruey General of the Confederate
Slates, is one of the counsel for the Cubans.
Richmond, Va., October 7. —lu the Senate the
protest of the Republican caucus against the legal
ity of the body was taken up and read at length.
It announces that the Republican members reserve
to themselves the right at uuy lime to secele from
the preseut Legislature and organize by themselves
the legal and loyal Legislature. Tne Senate voted
to lay it on the table.
During the discussion, a Republican said lie re
garded those who joined in makiug this protest as
representing the Administration and Congress, un
til the President and Congress should decide oth
erwise.
It was announced that Gen. Canby had replied
to the committee of the Legislature, which waited
on him, that he had no communication to make.
Gov. Walker sent iu his message. Os the Fif
teenth Amendment, he says : “The people of this
Commonwealth at the late election, by an over
whelming majority, accepted and adopted the
principle sought to be incorporated into the Fed
eral Constitution by this Amendment, viz: The
civil and political equality of all men before the
law. Tiie well known honor and integrity of the
people of Virginia forbids even the supposition
that they would fail to faithfully adhere to, and
maintain, while necessary aud possible, any princi
ple to which they had yielded their adherence.
He considers the electing of Senators clearly a
requisite to admission, and adds, complete resto
ration is accomplished by admission to representa
SOUTHERN CHKISTXAISr AJ3VOCA.TJ3.
tion in Congress, and there can be no question
that admission to representation may to some ex
tent depend upon the representatives dieted.
While the election of Senators would fully com
plete every preparation necessary for the prompt
admission of the State to representation to both
Houses of Congress, the election of suitable men
lor these exalted positions would unmistukahiy
demonstrate the sincerity of our past action aud
afford a sure guarantee of onr intentions and pur
poses for the future.
The caucus of the Conservative members of the
Legislature to-night, resolved to adopt the Four
teenth and Fifteenth Amendments ‘at ouca. In
joint committee on the Governor’s mess .ge, a
proposition by Snowden, of Alexandria, to add
a bill passing the Fifteenth Amendment clause,
showing that it was done because requisite to tbe
admission of the State, was rejected—only two of
the committee voting in favor of it. To-mo row
an amendment will be ottered iu the House to
make the adoption of the Fifteenth Amendment
conditional to the admission of the State.
Bangor, Mk., October 7.—A letter from the tel
egraph mauager at Codas, Me., says: “We are in
a terrible state here. The lines both ways are flat
on thegronnd, and covered with trees and build
ings. The damage to ve-scls and buildings is very
great. Eastport is reported to have been nearly
demolished. The water in the Penobscot has risen
to its highest spring mark. The booms are broken
and millions of feet of iogs have gone by the city.
A large gang of men having beeu sent do , n after
them, it is hoped that most of them will be picked
up.
Richmond, October B.—Both Houses of the

AGRICULTURAL. PAPER.
The Southern Farm and Home.
We propose to issue on the
15th ot November,
and oa the 15th of every month thereafter a paper
of
Thirty-two Page.,
to be devoted exclusively to
Agriculture, Horticulture and .Matter. Relating to
the Field and Flreaide.
While we do uot desire to disparage any of the
agricultural publications which are now receiving
public patronage, we do not believe that any of
them exactly covers the ground which we propose
to occupy.
We intend to issue a first-class papkk, both
as to Matteu and Execution. We shall employ
The Best Talent
which the country affords in every department, aud
we intend to spare no pains to make the paper
A Reliable Authority
to all seeking information on everything relating to
The Farm aud the Household.
Eminent practical agriculturists will contribute
articles concerning
1 he Preparation and Culture of the Soil.
Skilled Horticulturists and fruit growers will keep
our readers posted in regard to
The Garden and Orchard.
Persons of acknowledged experience and skill
in the raising aud care of stock will devote tlieir
attention to this important subject.
The Domestic Department of the Household.
The kitchen, the larder, the store room, and the
fowl yard—with approved recipes in all branches
of housewifery, shall be attended to carefully.
We have made arrangements to illustrate the
text with appropriate
Wood Engravings.
and while the greater portion of the paper will be
devoted to the instruction and benefit of the heads
of the house, the amusement of
The Young People
shall not bo neglected.
The covers and a few pages at the end of eacli
number of the
SOUTHEHIM FARM AND HOME
will be reserved for advertisements, aud will be a
most valuable medium for business men to com
municate with the public.
As we propose to issue a large edition of the ilrst
number, which will be published the day previous
to the commencement of the Statu Fair, we would
invite our friends and patrons to make early appli
cation for the limited space which we can set apart
for advertisements.
