God forbid that I should Glory.
God forbid that I should glory,
Save in my Redeemer's cross;
For the joys that round it cluster,
Earthly good I count but loss.
Oh I ye devotees of fashion
Does the world supply your nee •

Where is happiness indeed.
Jesus calls with smiles entreating,
Love and pity in his voice; ?
Mourning souls, Oh ! won y

Blest afflictions, precious troubles,
Which have brought me to the cross.
Here is strength for every trial,
Here’s a friend who’ll never fail;
Peace foi; every troubled bosom,
Foes nor fears no more prevail.

Worldly good is here but dross;
Safe Retreat! Oh, blessed refuge!

LITTLE ANNIE’S PRAYER.
AN INCIDENT WHICH OCCURRED AT THE
MOYAMENSING MISSION SCHOOL, PHILADEL
PHIA.
One Sabbath afternoon I had been
talking of prayer to the sixty dear chil
dren who gather in my infant-school.
I said that ‘it is not praying unless
we mind the things we say 5” and that
“God for our Saviour’s sake listens to
the wants of even his little children.
Then, with folded hands, closed eyes,
and low voices, w© said, ‘ Our la
ther who art in heaven,” and I dis
missed the school.
. As the scholars one after another
left their seats, all paused to say,
“Good-by, teacher,” till it came to lit
tle Annie’s tnrrn. She lingered one
moment, theu pressed close to my side,
and, looking up in in my face with
earnest eyes, said, —
“Miss A ,if we ask God for any
thing that we want very much, will
he give it to us ?” I had only time to
answer, —
“Yes, dearand she was gone.
Another six days and the bright Sab
bath afternoon found teachers and
schola re assembled once more in the
school-room. The hours passed quick
ly by. Each child had received a tick
et, for they were all good, and of
course happy. In our school, every
little boy and girl who is quiet and
attentive gets a ticket, and after they
have four blue ones, a large pink one;
and then after four pink ones, comes a
beautiful book, full of pictures and
stories, to keep for their own.
This day, as I was about to say
“good-by” to little Annie, I thought
she looked rather sorrowful. I asked
if she were not well, One second she
was silent, and then 6aid, with tearful
eyes and quivering lips,—
“Yes, ma’am. But you did not tell
me true last Sunday. God will not
hear me when I pray.” I put my
arm around the dear child, and after
the others had gone, I took her on nty
lap and said, —
“Now, darling, tell me all about it.”
“Oh, Miss A., you know next Sun
day the books are to be given out; and
I have only three pink tickets and
three blue ones, —because one Sunday
I was not here and did not get any ;
and I want the book so much. So,
last Sunday I ran home as fast as I
could, took off my bonnet quick, ran
up-stairs, and when I had shut the
door, I kneeled down by a chair and
turned all the white sides of my tick
ets up ; and then I prayed to God as
hard as I could to make one of my
blue tickets turn £ink. But when I
looked, they were all the same colour
yet. Then I thought perhaps ! did
not mind enough the things I said.—
So I put the white sides up again and
prayed. I told God how much I wan
ted the book, how happy it would
make me ; and I said what you told us,
to ‘ask and ye shall receive.’ But it
was not of any use; for here they are
now, —three of each colourand she
opened her little hand, while the tears
streamed fast down her rosy cheeks.—
I quietly took one of her blue tickets,
and in its place put anew bright pink
one, on which were these words:—“l
write unto you, little children, because
your sins are forgiven you for his
name’s sakeand said, “Annie, that
ticket is yours. Mas not God answer
ed your prayer, dear,—though not in
the way you expected?” The little face
was quickly upturned to mine, while a
happy smile took the place of the tear
drops.
Then I tried to explain to Annie—as
I would love to explain to you, dear
little readers —that our heavenly Fath
er does hear the prayers of his children,
and that it is right that you should go
to him with all your little sorrows and
troubles, just as you do to your father
and mother in this world, —though
oftentimes he will see fit to deny your
requests foryour own good, and, again,
oftentimes answer them in the way
you least expect. God does not work
miracles any longer upon earth. He
did not turn the blue paper pink. But
he put it into the heart of little An
nie to tell her teacher of her wants,
and the longed-for ticket was hers, and
next Sabbath she received her new
book; and I trust Bhe will never for
get, when she turns over its pages,
that it was a gift from her heavenly
Father, who sent his own Son into the
world to die for little

HEARN SCHOOL.
Cave Spring, Ga.
This Institution for the year 1859 will continue
under the superintendence of A. J. KING, A. M.
The increase of students the present year, and the
satisfaction rendered to patrons, induce the belief
that the prospects of the school are brightening
every day, and if its many friends would now put
forth an effort in its behalf, their most sanguine
expectations might be realized. Our motto is on
ward. We have already provided an elegant set
of school,desks and chairs, a pair of fine globes and
a good bell; and we expect to supply the future
wants of the Institution with whatever may be
necessary to make its inducements equal to any
other in the State.
Parents living in Lower and Middle Georgia would
find this a very suitable place to send their sons,
with the two-fold object in view of providing them
with a pleasant summer residence, and the advan
tages of a good education. As the School of the
Georgia Baptist Convention, it claims the atten
tion and patrouage, especially of Georgia Baptists,
from every part of the State.
The following Text Books have been adopted
and are now used in school:
M’Guffy’s series of Readers: Monteith’s Geogra
phies ; Davies’ system of Mathematics ; Wilson’s
Histories ; Parker’s Natural Philosophy ; Porter’s
Chemistry ; Quackenbos’ English Composition;
Bullion’s series of Grammars, English, Latin, and
Greek ; Watts on the Mind; Wayland’s Moral Sci
ence and Political Economy, abridged; Smith’s Il
lustrated Astronomy ; Hooker’s Phisiology ; Blair’s
Rhetoric ; Hedges Logic ; Wayland’s Intellectual
Ppilosophy.
The Academic year of 42 weeks is divided into
two sessions. The first commences the third Mon
day in January, and closes the 30th of June, with
a public examination. The second commences the
18th of July, and closes the 18th of November.

HOLLAND BITTERS,
THE CELEBRATED HOLLAND REMEDY FOR
Dgspepsia —Diseases of the Kidney
—Liver Complaint — Weakness of
any kind—Fever and Ague,
And the various. affections consequent upon a
DISORDERED STOMACH OR LIVER,
Such as Indigestion, Acidity of the Stomach, Col
icky Pains, Heartburn, Loss of Appetite, Despon
dency, Costiveness, Blind and Bleeding Piles. In
all Nervous, Rheumatic, and Neuralgic Affections,
it has in numerous instances proved highly benfi
cial, and mothers effected a decided cure.
This is a purely vegetable compound, prepared
on strictly scientific principles, after the manner
of the celebrated Holland Professor, Boerhave.—
Because of its great success in most of the Euro
pean States, its introduction into the United States
was intended more especially for those of our fath
erland scattered here and there over the face of
this mighty country. Meeting with great success
among them, I now offer it to the American pub
lic, knowing that its truly wonderful medicinal
virtues must be acknowledged.
Generally instantaneous in effect, it finds its way
directly to the seat of life, thrilling and quicken
ing every nerve, raising up the drooping spirit,
and in fact, infusing new health and vigor in the
system.
expects to find this a bev
erage will be disappointed; but to the sick, weak
and low spirited, it will prove a grateful aromatic
cordial, possessed of singular remedial properties
• Caution:
The great popularity of this delightful Aroma
has induced many imitations, which the public
should guard against purchasing. Be not pursua
ded to buy anything else until you have given
Boerhave’s Holland Bitters a fair trial. One bot
tle will convince you how infinitely superior it is
to all these imitations. . _

NEAR LaGRANGE, GEORGIA.
THE Session for 1859, will open on Monday,

—one of six months, the other of three.
FACULTY.
WILLIAM JOHNS, Principal aud Proprietor,
Instructor in Political Economy, Moral and Men
tal Science.
EDWARD R. DICKSON, Instructor in Ancient

It will be the policy of the Principal to employ
none as Associate Teachers but the most able and
efficient. He takes pleasure in presenting the
names of the learned and accomplished individuals
whose services have been engaged as co-workers in
the great cause of Education.
Mr. Dickson lias been, for years, a devoted stu
dent of the classics. His scholarship in this de
partment is unexcelled; while, in other fields, his
researches have been thorough and ample. Asa
Christian gentlemen, an excellent disciplinarian,
and an able teacher ; he is equaled by few.
Messrs. Blackstone and Dennis are men of abil
ity and much moral worth. As evidence of this
it need only be stated that they taught their way
through College, and obtained its degrees by their
own unaided efforts.
The Course of Study is ample, embracing the
various branches of the ordinary college course.—
It is, at the same time, designed to afford the
highest advantages to those who are preparing to
enter any of the college classes. It is progressive
and systematic; but not stereotyped—to be passed
over by every pupil in a fixed period, at a given
number of strides, irrespective of capacity, schol
arship and mental habitude: but that prescribed
for each individual will be regulated according to
his mental capabilities and contemplated future
course. Acting on theory that boys should learn
first those things which they are to practice when
they become men, they will be required to pay spe
cial attention to those branches of study that will
fit them for business and the duties of an active
life.
The mind Is not treated as a mere receptacle;
but as a thing of life, growth and action : the
prime object is to develop its energies—nature and
train its expanding powers ; to mould and guider
aright its various and complex emotions ; to bring
into active exercise all its faculties; and to pre
sent in full and just proportions an educated
practical man, and not a graduated dunce or learn
ed automaton. The pupil is taught to think, to
reason, to investigate. He not only learns to
comprehend what is said, but to examine the sub
stratum and understand the reason of the propo
sition.
In the study of the Latin and Greek languages,
pupils are exercised in translating, both orally and
in writing, from the foreign into their vernacular,
and vice versa, until, by repeated and frequent
application, every principle becomes easy, and
every word is rendered familiar. By this and a
careful study of the idioms of the languages, they
become not mere translators, inelegant and inac
curate, but linguists.
The institute is furnished with ample philosophi
cal and chemical apparatus, Mathematical instru
ments, Mineral Cabinet, Maps, Skeleton, Physiolo
gical Charts, and a well selected library of several
hundred volumes. To these such additions will
be made as the improvements in science and the
wants of the institution demand. In addition to
the familiar lectures and illustrations with which
the recitations and exercises in every department
will be interspersed, extended lectures on various
scientific subjects will be delivered whenever the
circumstances render it necessary or expedient.
The Discipline and rules of conduct will be such
as are recognized and taught in the Sacred Scrip
tures: such as comport with reason and propriety:
and such as arc approved by experience and com
mon sense. In short, every pupil will be required
to do right/
Students from other institutions applying for
membership will be. expected to furnish testimo
nials of their moral and student-like deportment.
The buildings will be neatly fitted up and thor
oughly renovated, so that nothing in the outfit
will be wanting for convenience and comfort.
By a division of labor, with an efficient faculty
and a limited number of students, Rrownwood, it
is believed, will offer advantages equaled by few
institutions in the land—combining those of the
higher seminary with the best select private school.

FAMILY SEWING MACHINES,
Promote the leisure , health and happiness of home.
REASONS WHY THIS MACHINE IS UNIVER
SALLY PREFERRED OVER ALL OTHERS.
1 BECAUSE it is the only Sewing Machine in
• the world ever invented, so constructed as
to fully meet the demands of families, for general
use.
2. It is very siinple.and is never liable t get out
ol order.
3. It makes a seam which will not rip, though
every third stitch is cut.
4. It is not a Shuttle Machine.
6. It sews with two needles, making any length
stitch desired.
6. It sews from two ordinary spools, and thus
all trouble of winding thread is avoided ; while the
same Machine can be adapted at pleasure, by a
mere change of spools, to all varieties-iof work.
7. The same Machine runs silk or linen thread,
and common spool cotton, with equal facility.
8. This Machine will sew in tlfe slieves of a coat
with the same ease and facility that it sews a straight
seam.*
9. This Machine can ‘be run to make one thou
sand five hundred stitches per minute.
10. The seams are elastic as the most elastic
fabric, so that it is free from all liability to break in
washing, ironing or otherwise. *
11. The stitches made by this machine are more
beautiful than any other made either by hand or
machine. For sale by

The Eaculty of this Institution is composed en
tirely of experienced teachers, most of whom are
favorably known to the public at large, and being
furnished with the proper facilities for imparting
instruction in every department of study, it.is hard
ly necessary to state that the advantages offered
here are seldom found in a Female College.
Prof. Johnson is a popular teacher and a distin
guished composer of music. For six years pre
vious to his connection with this institution, he had
charge of this department in a flourishing female
college. Ilis superior excellence as a vocalist, en
ergy and tact in teaching, tit him specially for his
position. Young ladies from other colleges wish
ing to give the polish to a musical education would

SERMONS TO THE CHURCHES.*
BY FRANCIS WAYLAD, D. D.j
1 Volume. Price 85 cents.
From the New-York Examiner. 122
“Os all the noble contributions which Dr. AVay
land has made to the religious litterature of the
age not one has a grander or more important de
sign than that announced in this volume of Ser
mons to the Churches. The sermons are written
in the author’s best style—with great plainness,
but with great precision—and are designed not
for any single denomination, but for the whole
Christian public. We feel confident they will
commend themselves tho warm approval of every
religious mind.”
From the Cincinnati Christian Hearld
“It grapples with living evils and errors and
will make a practical impressions.”
From the Christian Chronicle.
“As we read these sermons one by one, and
with such thrilling interest, we could not but in
voluntarily exclaim, O that these words might
reach every mind, stir every conscience, and touch
every heart, while their great lessons of doctrine
and practice are brought to view as with tho clear
strong light of a noonday sun.”
From the American Presbyterian.
“This is a book truly worth printing, and worth
reading. They are discourses on important top
ics, admirably written by a noble Christian.”
From the Christian Intelligencer.
“Dr. Wayland is a clear thinker, and a strong
and elegant writer. His Sermons are models wor
thy of study.”
From the New-York Chronicle.
“They eminently practical character of these
sermons, their Christian simplicity and faithful
ness, their honest endeavor to strip the gospel of
pretentious ecclesiasticisms, and restore it to its
primitive purity and power, and the directness of
its application to the conscience and common
sense of the people, give them an inestimable
value, and make them highly wprthy of being
studied and prayed over by all who are striving
after a holy life.”
From the Southern Presbyterian.
“They are emphatically sermons for the times..
The plowshare of Christian truth and duty is
driven with unrelenting hand into the festering
evils of our popular Christianity, and there are
some passages which should make the ears of
professing Christians tingle.”
From the Boston Courier.
“These are the earnest and weighty discourses
of a man of vigorous mind, and deeply penetrated
with religious feeling, and fervently impressed
with the truth of the gospel which he preaches.”

The work has already rapidly passed through several
editions , and has received the emphatic approval of many
of the most distinguished clergymen and scholars in the coun
try. Among the numerous testimonials which have been
received are the following
EXTRACTS FROM LETTERS.
Henry J. Ripley } D. !>., Prof. Newton Theol. Inst.
The work bears ample testimony to its author’s extensive read
ing and accurate reflection : it cannot fail to awaken in a reader
much aerious and profitable consideration, and will abundantly
repay the time and attention which it occupies. Even should a
reader hesitate to adopt the author’s views, he cunnot but admire
his spirit. It i6gratifying to see so much evidence of growing agree
ment among Christians, and to meet with a book so well illustra
ting tho candor and the independence which should mark, as wott
os guide, tho progress of Christian principles.
J. Newton Brown y D. D., Philadelphia.
It Is one of those first-rate books, which it is of great importance
to keep constantly before the public. Its principles are sound. Its
facts will repay perusal. Its spirit is lovely ; its style lucid and
attractive; its imaces full of the purest light and beauty. Some o$
its argumentative illustrations appear to me to possess original and
irresistible force. Indeed I have seldom read a book with more
pleasure. It is full of tlio seeds of things.
George C. Baldwin , J). D., Troy ) N. Y.
I religiously feel two desires. One is, that it may find its way
Into every Baptist femily on the continent; for it will greatly
strengthen their faith and confirm their hope. The other is, that
all candid inquirers after truth, in the directions it discusses, will
give it a fair consideration; for it will assuredly, by the kindness
of its tone, the reliableness of its facts, the scope of its arguments,
and its manly ability, aid thom in finding “ tho right way of the
Lord.”
A. C. Kendrick , D. Z)., Prof. Rochester University , N. Y.
It is a book of genuine and solid merit. It is a clear, scholarly,
and candid statement of the leading distinctive principles of out
denomination, with their grounds and their progress. It is per
vaded also by an excellent spirt. The author has done the church
a service in preparing tho work.
Francis Wayland , D. Providence , R. I.
If any one desires to see this whole subject treated with great still
ness or research, and with singular fairness and ability, I would
refer him to Professor Curtis’s work on tho “Progress of Baptist
Principles.”
Pharcellus Churchy D. D., New York.
I have fbund it logical in arrangement, lucid in statement, for
cible in argumentation, catholic in spirit, and triumphant in its vin
dication or individualism. A subject more instructive could not
have been aelected, none more cardinal to our common Christi -
anity none better fitted to explode false dogmatisms.and pernicioua
ecclesiasticisms; and it is commendation enough of tho book that
Us treatment of it is eaual to.the tronscendant theme.
SMITH & WIIILDEN,
Dep. Agents,
Charlesten, S. C.
The following remedies are offered to the jtuhlie siu
the best, most perfect which medical science can
afford.’ Ayer’s Cathartic Pili.s have been pre
pared with the utmost skill which the medical pro
fession of this age possesses, and their effects show
they have virtues which surpass any combination of
medicines hitherto known. Other preparations do
more or less good; but this cures such dangerous
complaints, so quick and so surely, as to prove an
cfficaey and a power to uproot disease beyond any
thing which men have known before. By removing
the obstructions of the internal organs and stimulat
ing them into healthy action, they renovate the foun
tains of life and vigor,—health courses anew through
the body, and the sick man is well again. They are
adapted to disease, and disease only, for when taken
by one in health they produce but little effect. This
is the perfection of medicine. It is antagonistic to
disease, and no more. Tender children may take
them with impunity. If thev are sick they will cure
them, if they are well they wul do them no harm.
Give them to some patient who has been prostrated
with bilious complaint: see his bent-up, tottering form
straighten with strength again; see his long-lost appe
tite return; see his clammy features blossom into
health. Give them to some sufferer whose foul blood
has burst out in scrofula till his skin is covered with
gores; who stands, or sits, or lies in anguish. lie has
been drenched inside and out with every potion which
ingenuity could suggest. Give him these Pills, and
mark the effect; see the scabs fall fiom his body; see
the new, fair skin that has grown under them ; see the
late leper that is clean. Give them to him whose
angry humors have planted rheumatism in his joints
and bones ; move him and he screeches with pain ; he
too has been soaked through every muscle of his body
with liniments and salves; give him these Pills to
purify his blood; they may not cure him, for, alas!
there are cases which no mortal power can reach ; but
mark, he walks with crutches now, and now he walks
alone ; they have cured him. Give them to the lean,
sour, haggard dyspeptic, whose gnawing stomach has
long ago eaten every smile from his face and every
muscle from his body. See his appetite return, and
with it his health; see the new man. See her that
was radiant with health and loveliness blasted and too
early withering away; want of exercise, or mental an
guish, or some lurking disease, has deranged the inter
nal organs of digestion, assimilation, or secretion, till
they do their office ill. Her blood is vitiated, her
health is gone. Give her these Pills to stimulate the
vital principle into renewed vigor, to cast out the ob
structions, and infuse anew vitality into the blood.
Now look again—the roses blossom on her cheek,
and where lately sorrow sat joy bursts from every fea
ture. See the sweet infant wasted with worms.“lts
wan, sickly features tell you without disguise, and
?ainfully distinct, that they are eating its life away,
ts pinohed-up nose and ears, and restless sleepings,
tell the dreadful truth in language which every mother
knows. Give it the Pills in large doses to sweep
these vile parasites from the body. Now turn again
and see the ruddy bloom of childhood. Is it nothing
to do these things ? Nay, are they not the marvel of this
age ? And yet they are done around you every day.
Have you the less serious symptoms of these” dis
tempers, they are the easier cured. Jaundice, Costive
ness, Headache, Sideachc, Heartburn, Poul Stomach,
Nausea, Pain in the Bowels, Flatulency, Loss of Ap
petite, King’s Evil, Neuralgia, Gout, and kindred
complaints all arise from the derangements which
’ these Pills rapidly cure. Take them perseveringly,
and under the counsel of a good Physician if you can ;
if not, take them judiciously by such advioe as we
give you, and the distressing, dangerous diseases they
cure, which afflict so many millions of the human race,
are cast out like the devils of old they must bur
row in the brutes and in the sea. Price 25 cents per
box
Through a trial of many years, and through every
nation of civilized men, Ayer’s Ciif.rky Pectoral
has been found to afford more relief, and to cure more
cases of pulmonary disease, than any ojher remedy
known to mankind. •Cases of apparently settled con
sumption have been cured by it, and thousands of suf
ferers; who were deemed beyond the reach of human
aid, have been restored to their friends and usefulness,
to sound health gnd the enjoyments of life, by this all
powerful antidote : to diseases of the lungs and throat,
Here a cold had settled on the lungs. The dry, hack’-
ing cough, the glassy eye, and the pale, thin features
of him who was lately lusty and strong, whisper to all
but him Consumption. lie tries every thing; but
the disease is gnawing at his vitals, and shows its
fatal symptoms more and more over all his frame.
He is taking the Cherry Pectoral now; it has
stopped his cough and made his breathing easy; his
sleep is sound at night; liis appetite returns, and with
it his strength. The dart which pierced his side is
broken. 9 Scarcely any neighborhood can be found
which has not some living trophy like tliis to shadow
forth the virtues which have won fbr the Cherry Pec
toral an imperishable renown. But its usefulness
does not end here. Nay, it accomplishes more by pre
vention than cure. The countless colds and coughs
which it cures are the seed which would have ripened
into a dreadful harvest of incurable diseases. Influ
enza, Croup, Bronchitis, Hoarseness, Pleurisy, Whoop,
ing Cough, and all irritations of the throat and lungs
are easily cured by the Cherry Pectoral if taken m
season. Every family should have it by them, and
they will find it an invaluable protection from the in
sidious prowler which carries on the parent sheep from
many a flock, the darling lamb from many a home.
Authenticated evidence of these facts, with directions
for the treatment of each complaint, may be found in
Ayer’s American Almanac, of which we publish three
millions, and scatter them broadcast over the earth
in order that the siqk every where may haye before
them the information it contains. Druggists and
dealers in medicine generally have them for distribu
tion gratis, and also for sale these remedies, prepared
by Dr. J. C. AYER, Practical and Analytical Chem
ist, Lowell, Mass.
