SOWING AND REAPING." It Is known that Rev. N. L. Brake man, pastor of Centenary M. E. church in this city, after serving in the army all through the late war, at the request of the authorities of his church, remain ed South some years to assist in reor ganizing tbe M. E. church in tbe South from which it bad been expelled in 1844 by the unfortunate division of the church on the slavery question. He entered the field as a presiding elder In 1866, and began the work in Mississippi, with that entire State as a district, In a late letter to tbe Atlanta (Ga.) Advocate, Mr. Brakeman says: ...

There are those who will nover forget the embarrassment**, loila, perils,pains prejudices, persecutions and perplex! ties amid which we that year, set up the banner of Christ and the "Mothe Church at Meridian, Maeon, Columbus, Aberdeen, Corinth, Holly Springs, Oxford, Jackson, Natchez, Vicksburg, Yazoo City, and other central points.

Tbe next year we were transferred to tbe New Orleans district, which we enlarged by taking in so much of tbe State of Mississippi as lies south of the Slst degree of north latitude and east of Louisiana, and that year (1867) we planted the standard of our Zionat principal points all along the Gulf coast, from Pearl River to Pascagoula. And, In seven years, tbe three traveling preachers have increased to 12S,and less than 30 local preachers, whom we baVe licensed, bave increased to 829, and tbe less than 9-,000 members we received into the M. E. cburch have grown to 80,343. And so far as terrtto ry, numbers and progress areooncern ed, Mississippi is the banner-confer-ence of all our Southern work. What a noble harvest is here! Thirty thousand souls in seven years! What other annual conference on the oentinent, or on tbe globe, slnoe 1866, can show such an Increase In so short a time? "What shall tbe manhood of such In fancy be?" Eternity alone can fully reveal it.

A member of tbe Mississippi confer enoe, Rev. Hardy Ryun, one of tbe tblr ty local preachers, was the next year transferred to tbe Liberia conference, and was, it Is said, the first one of our African missionaries to penetrate tbe wild* of that region, and carry tbe Gospel to the savage tribes of the inte rior. He died soon after, but not till he had set a new example of Christian courage and seal to his fellow-mission sries, and effectually opened a new door ofsnccess to our missions on that dark and distant ooast.

There shall be an handful of corn In tbe earth upon the top of tbe mountains tbe fruit tbereor shsll shaks like Lebanon. Tbe kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard-seed, which Is indeed the least of sll spedsgbut when It is grown. It Is the greatest among herbs, and becotneth a tree, so ibe birds of the air com» and lodge in the bmnebe* thereof. They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. He that goeth forth and weepetb, bearing precious seed, sbsll doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing bis sheaves with htm. Blessed are ye tbst sow beside all waters." »'JARTNSR }r NOTTCBi

Woman Sees Them. A esw iilostmsd volume of Personal Experience, Interesting Reminiscences, snd Careful Observation. By Mary Clsmmer A»«*. PuWbhed br A. l5. WorUungtoTS Co., Hartford, Conn. The name of Mary Clssamsr Ames has become a familiar and honored household word. She bas enjoyed me facilities for observation and for obtaining reliable iaformstion concerning the "in-, ner life" at Washington, its mysteries, wonder*, marvels, secret doings, etc, such ss no other person of either sex has ever before been able to command. Her keen eye has been watchful of everv person—cogniiaot of every fact. In this volume she takes os with her and points out to u« not only what an ordinary observer might see and describe, but what (with a woman's wit and a patriot's devotion) she herself has seen and felt.

It is book of national interest—a book for every one. it is actually overflowing with good things for every man, woman and child—full of amusement and instruction for all. Mrs. Ames shows us the wonders and workings of tbe elaborate machinery of the government, and tells all about t! men and women whose words and die ii are making up to-day's history of our countrv. 8he explains whst tbey do and bow thsv do it and in a charming manner she gives us the ten yesrs experience of a clever and wide-awake woman. She tell* us every incident and fact which can instruect, interest or amuse. Everywhere we witness wonders. At every step the author pours forth fund of information sna anecdote, which is as charming as it is unexpected.

Ko other bock ever published, has appealed to so large a constituency as does this one. It is a book for no one class, condition, sect or party it is a work for all. It is indispensible to every wideawake and progressive person—everywhere. It is a book for American homes snd hearthstones, and wherever there is an American family, there Ut a waiting customer for this work.

In point of printing, binding, gilding, ornamentation, aod, above all, beautiful and costly illustration, this work is unexcelled while tbe superb steei-plate portrait of Mary Clenfmer Ames, engraved from a photograph taken expressly for tbe purpose, and the first and only portrait of any kind ever engraved of her, will be highly prised by the tens of thousands in all sections ol our country who love and admire hergenino.

This work will be sold only to those who order of the Agent, who will soon introduce it to onr eitisens. We bespeak for it a most cordial reception—for it i* worthy of it.
