VIRGINIA MIDLAND.
In our notice last week of this popular

an error —e meant to allude to the Virginia
Midland. It begins at Danville, Va., and
terminates at Washington, D. C., via Lynch
burg, Charlottesville, Culpepper, and Ma
nat as. It is a first-class route, and we refer
to schedule i lsewhtre in this paper.

gations Mr. Smith has assumtd will mature,
is near at baud, and via urge all those who
have promised to aid him in publishing this
really valuable work to at once respond.

have not received it, it will be sent you. The
book ig handsome and has cost the author
more than he receives for many of the copies ?

Ill* AND DOWN THE ROAD.
I,ast week we made a brief trip lo Atlan
ta. When we left, the weather was warm
and dusty. Fortunately we took the pre
caution to put on a heavier suit than we had
been wearing;, and when we arrived at the
Gate City it was raining and quite cool. It
was the opening of the Equinoctial gale,
which blew so fiercely for several days there
after. Such a sudden change! Yet how
like everything in life. No man knows what
a day will bring forth. To-day it is a time
of sunshine and joy, but the morrow brings
a cloud and sorrow. But what of it if we
have learned the lesson of contentment, so
that •' no changes of season or place” can
render us the less happy, while blessed with
a sense of God’s goodness and love, which
caus“s us to recognize Him as our tender
and loving Father, who has promised to
make all things work together for good.
On the route we heard that brother Rivers
was having a good meeting at Barnesville
He wanted help, and if it had been possible
we vntjnfl nave stoppeu , _
for him. But, alas! we were shut up to the
necessity ot passing him by.
At Atlanta we met only one of the preach
ers, brother John A. Reynolds. He reports
that he has had a continuous revival for sev
eral months, which is sti 11 going on, quietly
but steadily. Brother R. has been greatly
blessed in his work. He is a good and faith
ful worker and will always succeed.
We left Atlanta in a rain-storm, but being
in a comfortable car on the Central Rail
road, we felt no inconvenience, and arrived
safely at Macon.
Next morning we found a letter requiring
us to go down the Macon and Brunswick
Road on a matter of business. Arriving at
Bullard's, we took private conveyance for
Dr W. 0 Daniel's, where we found the Doc
tor and his excellent family, as is their cus
tom, ready to entertain us in most hospitable
style They report quite favorably of broth
er Domingos. He is doing a good work in
Twiggs. Has had gracious revivals all over
the circuit.
Ou the road we met and had a pleasant
interview with Judge McLean,! of Jackson
ville, Fla. He was on bis way home from
New York, on account of Yellow Fever in
Fernaudina. He apprehended no danger at
Jacksonville, but felt it necessary to be at
home. The Judge is a prominent member
of our Church at Jacksonville, and is well
known as not only a valuable member, but a
most useful and influential citizen.
Business over we return to our post.

GENERAL NEWS.
Jacksonville, Fla., September 14.—Five
deaths at Fernandina since the las’ report,
and several new eases. Dr. McFarland,
from Savannah, says the disease is unmis
takably yellow fever, and will shortly become
epidemic. It is almost impossible to get at
the true condition of affairs. The Board of
Health is now well organized, and hospitals
are soon to be established.
Boston, September 14. —Rev. Benjamin
Schr,eider, for fortv-iwo years a missionary
of the American Board in Turkey, died at
the city hospital here to day. He was a na
tive of Pennsylvania.
Augusta. Ga., September 14. —A dispatch
was receiv and here this morning from New
York annonncing the sudden death of Hon.
William Hope Hull of this city. Mr. Hull
was one of the oldest and most prominent
lawyers in Georgia.
Washington, September 15.—The statis
tician of the Department of Agriculture re
ports the condition of the cotton crop during
the first week of September as averaging for
the whole cotton belt the same as in Sep
tember of last year. Florida, Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas and Ten
nessee make higher averages than in 1876.
The Oarolinas, Georgia and Texas rep rt
less favorably, the greatest reduction being
in Texas as compared with last month.
Floiida, Arkansas and Tennessee only re
port an improvement The percentages of
condition areas follows: North Carolina
83, Sou’h Carolina 85, Georgia 77. Florida
44, Alabama 91, Mississippi 88, Louisiana
92, Texas 70, Arkansas 99, Tennessee 100.
Tne caterpillar is present in all of the Gult
States and in South Carolina, but has done
little damage as y*-t, except in Texas. In
several parishes in Louisiana the loss is con
siderable from this cause. Where it has
made a late appearance it will benefit rather
than injure the crop. In the Atlantic States
there is much complaint of rust, mainly re
sulting from drought, but in some counties
from injury by beating storms. In this sec
tion the growth is late and the effect of frost
in shortening the harvest is feared.

FOREIGN.
London, September 14.—1 tis a significant
fact tuat the two experienced miluary cor
respondents of the Times and Daily News,
after witnessing the attack on Tuesday, ar
rive at the same conclusion : That Plevna
must be taken by gradual approaches. The
Daily News' correspondent, writing from the
Russian headquarters, under date of Wednes
day morning, appears to have been still un
aware of any decided Russian success, for
he says the Emperor and Grand DukeNich
olas, were on the battlefield until 9 o'clock
last night. The Emperor returned to h.ai
quarters, at Poredin, late last night. The
battle field of the last five days is silent th's
morning. There is talk of submitting the
Turkish position to a regular siege of sapping
up to the redoubts, while a close blockade is
instituted, with iutent to starve Osman
Pasha's force. The villages enclosed within
Osman Pasha’s line are full of supplies for
the simple wants of the Turkish soldiers,
and the fields groan with heavy crops of
maize.
London, September 15. —The Servians
will delay the declaration of war until the
opera ions against Plevna assume a more
cheerful look tromthe Russien point of view.
General Skobeleff repulsed five attacks on
Friday but on the sixth was compelled to
abandon the two redoubts beford Plevna
which he had captured on Tuesday. Plevna
is provisioned for two months
Baker Pnsha drove the Russians into Vo
ditzker, with heavy loss. Tne general tone
of the news is very unfavorable to the Rus
sians.
London, September 16. —A Reuter dis
patch from Constantinople states that Greece
has protested to the Porte against the con
Btruction of fortifications on the Gulf of Arts,
and the dispatch of reinrorcements thither,
as contrary to the treaty stipulations.
Mehemet AH Pasha telegraphs that eigh
teen battalions of Turks on Friday, repulsed
an atta k by the Russian Twelfth army corps
on Sinano. The Russian loss is heavv.
A Renter dispatch, dated Constantinople,
1:30 p. m. to day, contains the following :
“ The Grand Vizier has informed Minister
Layaid that Osman Pasha defeated the Rus
sians on Saturday, killing and wounding
eight thousand, and capturing several guus.
Fighting before Plevna is still going on.”
London, September 17. —Ths Daily News,
s’rong pro Russian, sums up the morning b
intelligence, in a leading article, as follows:
“ Looking impartially at the facts as pre
sented this morning to the public, we are un
able to form any other conclusion than that
the attack on Pievnu has not only failed, but
so failed that it cannot be renewed under
the condition in which the Russian com
mander finds himself placed. He has at
tempted what the great German commauder,
never attemp ed in their French campaign,
and used up his slight superiority of men
with extraordinary rapidity. He is liable to
be attacked at any given part ot his Iront by
a force larger than any which he can assem
ble there. In a word, he is beaten. ’
London, September 18. —The Daily News'
correspondent at Vienna reports that Gen.
Todleben, the defender of Sebastopol, has
received orders to prepare plans tor fortify
ing wimer camps ai Matchm, Herzova, Sis
tova and Nienp.dis if it comes to the worst.
Nicopolis, where a strong tetedupont is to
be established, will be held at all hazards.
All the fresh troops meanwhile are directed
to the Orenta line. Fort St. Nicholas, cap
tured by the Turks Sunday morning, is said
to be ttie key of the Russian positions on
Schiplta Pass, and to command other Rus
sian work. This Paris Temps states that
Prince Napoleon will arrive to day at the
Chateau de Dane, in the province of Narvur,
Belgium, on a visit to the Due de Fernau
Nunt z, who is allied through his wife to the
Montijo family He will remain there under
pretext of hunting. The Daily Neios' Paris
correspondent says: “His coming so near the
French frontier during the electorial period
occasions remark. There are some who think
he is dreaming of the laurels of Strasbourg
and Boulogne.”
aeptomber 19.—The Times' cor
respondent at Schipka reports that on tKie
17th instant, u. vi.„a P i: b 'A.
ing, in which the Turks showed extraordinary
gallantry, they, at five o'clock in the even
ing, took Fort St. Nicholas, the highest point
of the Russian works, capturing five guns,
but later, owing to large reinforcements re
ceived by the Russians and the enormous
difficulty of holding the position, the Turks
were obliged to abandon it. The Times'
corresponded before Plevna, September 10,
says,- “The siege still proceeds by sap and
trench, and the Turks must soon be shut in
entirely. The spirit of the ranks of the Rus
sian army is admirable, supplies are plentiful
and the weather splendid.”
London, September 20. —A Russian offi
cial dispatch dated Gorny Studen, Septem
ber 19, says, yesterday affairs were quiet
everywhere. The blockade aud bombard
ment of Plevna continue.

SOUTH GEORGIA CONFERENCE.
To the Preachers
And members of the Reiiet Associat’on of the

sidering the hard times, but I hope sou will not
lorgot that “help in need is help indeed,” and
those who have not sent up their mor uary fee
will confer a great favor upon the widow and

I he WneUrcn Female Institute, located in Staun

for young ladies in the South. I have occasion to
know and appreciate its value by the advantages
enjoyed by one of my daughters there. Its course
of study is ample; its Faculty accomplished, and
instruction both solid and elegant. Its personal
accommodations are all that can be desired for
health and comfort, or taste.
