Nowlin is conduct- ing a revival at Brewton, Ala., and of his work there the Pine Belt News of that place says: “The visiting minister aas shown himself a ripe Biblical scholar and a master of logical analysis. With- out radical or sensational methods he is securing the interest amd at- tendance of many of our people who are not regular attendants at church services.. His preaching is a plain, forcible presentation of the old, es- sential doctrines of the Christian Gospels.

The beginning of the sixties found the people of the North and South very different. Though brcthers in blood their greatest difference was in conflicting governmental policies. It is justice to say the men of the South’ were a mass of intelligent; men, men of noble naturcs, sound judgment, and correct thinking. { They were not to be moved by ig-| noble impulse, but were ever actu- ated by the holy principal so deeply embedded in their natures, the love of justice and liberty. Slavery was! not that for which they fought. The real cause lay far deeper than slav- ery.
