LITTLE ROCK, ARK.—On the 28th of February, after preaching on the Sabbath previous, in the “Sons of Ham” Hall, the Superintendent organized the First Congregational Church of that Capital and of the State, with forty-six members and ten more educated and influential persons ready to come, and “more to follow.” Rev. B. F. Foster, a former student of Fisk University and a licentiate of the Central South Conference, was invited to serve the church for three months. The people are moving at once to purchase a house of worship. As would be the right of any Congregational Church, this one incorporated the class meeting into the constitution found in Roy’s Manual. A Sabbath-school, thoroughly organized, with one hundred scholars and seventeen officers and teachers, started off at the first. MARION, ALA.—Our large room is filled every Monday afternoon at the ladies meeting, and all hearts are full; and the dark faces look beautiful to me, shining through smiles and tears, as we talk of the dear Saviour. The same room is filled to overflowing with young people and children Saturday afternoon. The interest has been so evident that Mr. Curtis has held a few extra meetings. Twelve children have been forward for prayer, and we believe they have given their hearts to Jesus. Mr. C. will hold meetings next week also, and we hope for a great blessing. * * * * * THE FREEDMEN.
