TENNESSEE

Paris, Henry Co., July 11.—We are obliged to close our meetings here for the present, to attend the State quarterly meeting; but otherwise they could probably be continued no longer, because of the panic caused by the yellow fever that has just broken out in Memphis. Much prejudice seems to have been removed from the minds of the people here. Several are convinced on the Sabbath question. Some take that day to rest and investigate the subject. Last Sabbath we held quarterly meeting with the little church lately organized at Springville. One more was baptized. Their testimonies seem to come from hearts full of love for God and his truth, and to indicate growth in grace and in the knowledge of the truth. Pray for the cause in Tennessee. G. K. OWEN.
