Rev. O. H. Spurgeon and his Pub
lishers.
It will be perceived by the following
letters from Messrs. Sheldon & Cos., to
the Rev. C. H. Spurgeon, that the misun
derstanding heretofore existing in relation
to the publication of Mr. Spurgeon’s ser
mons in this country, is satisfactorily ad
justed. The publishers of the New York
Waverly, q literary newspaper, having
disposed of their right to publish them in
book form, to Messrs. Sheldon & Cos., are
henceforth fully authorized t o publish
Mr. Spurgeon’s sermons, as revised and
corrected by himself, every week, in the
columns of their newspaper.
New York, Dec. 22d, 1859.
Rev. C. 11. Spurgeon :
Dear Sir, —It affords us pleasure to be
able to inform you that the unhappy dif
ficulty heretofore existing between the
publishers of the New York Waverly and
ourselves, respecting the publishing of
your sermons in book form has been amic
ably adjusted, they agreeing to abandon
to us all purpose, or right to publish your
sermons in book form* and we withdraw
ing all opposition, and consenting to their
publishing the sermons weekly in their
paper. Very truly yours
SHELDON & CO.
Look here ! Don’t Read This !!
Second Proof.
Why not ? It may make you feel bad.
Remember, this is the second proof we
give of ignorance of the Bible, viz :”That
persons professing to be governed by the
Bible, can engage in the sale of liquor;
and in order to induce custom, keep a
barrel hid back, where some folks can find
it, with all the necessaries to suit some
folks, and some folks go and suck them
selves drunk, that would never get drunk
if they had it to pay for.
Such persons, if they are Christians, do
not know that the Bible says. “ Wo to
him that giveth his neighbor drink, that
putteth thy bottle to him, and maketh him
drunk also,” Hab 2:15. They never read
this text, “abstain from all appearance of
evil.” Ist Thes. 5: 22. I could quote oth
ers, that these professed Christian whisky
dealers never read, and which if they ev
er had read, would stop them.
But now I have quoted these, should
the eye of one such fall on them, they may
deny the charge, and say they have read
them; “oh! yes, we know all that, but
we place our own construction upon it.”
Very well, I allow you to do that, for we
have no popes to say you shall not read
the Bible and shall not “wrest it to your
own destruction after you do read it.”
But stop a moment, poor mortal, I want
to ask you a question or two.
Ah! those question, you growl out.
Quostions ! you will ask so many question.
That is not preaching. Yes friends, and
you feel as the negro preacher did when
questioned too hard. “Hush brodder,
you spile de bes preacher in de worl.’’
Well now whisky dealer, or giver, I will
divide the matter, and ask you one ques
tion. Hear it now, listen.
When you appear at the “Judgement
seat of Christ, to receive the things done
in the body,” and the tears of drunkard’s
wives and children are charged to your
account; and the stripes made on inno
cent wives and children, by a father or
husband, made drunk by you, in that
“back room” or at your bar, or by “the
barrel or demijohn” you sold him, all
shall Hash like so many vivid lightening
flashes before your eyes; and those “quart
ers, halves, and dollars,” made or gained
by such means, stare you in the face as so
many grinning spectres; the nakedness
of the children, caused by the money go
ing into your pocket for the “liquor fire
and distilled ruin,” that made their father
a brute, beast, yea, demi demon, shall
haunt you; the loaves of bread you de
prived them of shall weigh you. soul down
as so many balls of lead. Will you then
have a single excuse, that you can meet
your God with ?
You be saved ? There is only one lit
tle chance. Some “will be saved, so as by
fire,'’ their works all burned up though.
Possibly you may escape as a naked man
from a burning house. You will have the
“smell of fire,” and be nice cracklings
wont you ? So to warn you, I,
Will Now’ Come-down-hard.
EDITORIAL BREVITIES.
Communications. We have several good
ones crowded out this week.
Chiel. We hoped to have received from you
the “Salient points of the Alabama pulpit.”—
Can’t you send them on J We want to know
the good brethren of our sister State.
Complaints. Several of our subscribers
are complaining about the mails, and the ir
regularity with which they receive the Index,
The packages are well done up at the printing
office, and mailed at the earliest hour possible,
and the Post Master here informs us they are
sent off by the first mails, in good order. So
the fault must be some where else. We will
do the best we can, and if we find where the
fault is, will endeavor to correct it.
Should the package for Penfield go by At
lanta or Augusta ? It is now going by the for
mer, as recently directed by ourself.
Haralson P. 0., Coweta co. We have re
ceived a good letter from a brother at this P.
0., enclosing $2 and no name signed to it. —
Will the brother send us his name that we
may give him credit.
Elder Wm. H. Clark. The correspondents
of this brother will address him at Albany
hereafter.
Daily Telegraph. We are glad to see that
our enterprising publisher, Mr. Joseph Clisby,
is going to start a daily, and makes his begin
ning to-day. He is the man to succeed in
what he undertakes. This paper will deserve,
and doubtless receive a sustaining patronage
from the business and reading public.
Asa Cox. We learn that this aged broth
er, late of Chattahoochee co., is gone to his
hoped for rest. He was 91 years old, a pious,
zealous and liberal baptist, and a devout lover
.of Jesus.
The following we extract from a letter from
■an esteemed and beloved hrothes :
Dear bro. Warren. —You should be encour
aged, my brother, in the trying station you are
called to fill, among the people of God. Tru
ly a responsible position. Yet you have the
same blessed promise, that He will bestow
grace sufficient. May you ever realize that
goodness. I need not say to you that lam en
couraged greatly with the tone—firm and gen
tly—which the Index breathes under your
management. You will have the wishes and
co-operation of your brethren generally. I
suppose we must have a little dark time of it
here, that we may be the better prepared to
appreciate the goodness of the Lord. And
amid the bitter controversies our brethren
have been, and are now engaged, this has
been my hope and encouragement: A good
time is ahead—some of us will realize how lit
tle we are. Yours in love,
J. 11. STOCKTON.
Dr. A, T. Holmes has chauged his address
from Atlanta to Decatur, Ga.
A NEW NAME.
The Baptist Evangelical Society of London
calls Baptist Churches “New Testament Bap
tized Churches.” Then it follows that they do
not consider other denominations New Testa
ment Baptized Churches. This affords us a
name for pedobaptist organizations. It i con
ceded that ecclesia , the Greek word, means
called out, or a people or congregation, irre
spective of character, called together. Then
we may call those who sprinkle and pour for
baptism —The UN-baptized Churches. Avery
appropriate name.
Health of Macon.
There has been no new case of Small Pox in
Macon since our last and since the original
panic. Everything seems to indicate perfect
safety to citizens and visitors, and we trust bu
siness animation, which has been partially sus
pended by exaggerated rumors and unfounded
apprehensions of danger, will be restored in a
few days. We append the following official
statement by the authorities of the City, from
the Citizen of last Saturday. The concluding
paragraph, it will be seen, contains a manifest
error, altogether inconsistent with the previous
allegation that disease does not exist in town.
It should read, “all cases [at the Pest House] ,
from town and country are doing well.” There
is no case in town : ;

The Macon Road. ,
The Augusta Chroncle says: We are pleas- ,
ed to learn that Mr. George Haselhurst, is now ‘
in our city, as the representative of influential [
citizens of Macon, to ascertain the views of the
citizens of Augusta, and to make known the
interest the of citizens of Macon, in the project
of a rail road communication between the two
cities. Mr. H., we learn, proposes to extend
his visit to Charleston. — Charleston Courier. ,
Arrival of the Africa.
New York, Jan. 23. —The steamship Africa ar
rived here to day. Her commercial news was an
ticipated by the Circassian. 1
The Africa’s mails left for the South this morning.
The Catholics of Ireland are preparing a memori
al requesting Lord Palmerston to preserve the in- [
tegrity of the Pope's dominions. ‘
The London Times regards the dismissal of (
Walewski as a declaration of Napoleon, who is
disposed to commit himself to the liberal policy of
Central Italy against the Pope's despotism. The
Times warns Napoleon that although he may count
upon the sympathy of England, lie must not expect
her to join him in an offensive alliance against oth
er powers.
The journals of Rome have bitter articles against
the late pamphlet, and they say that the French pa
pers dare not reproduce it.
Walewski’s successor Is said to be a bitter antag
onist to England.
Arrival of the Nova Scotia.
This steamer brings Liverpool dates to and
including Thursday Jan. 12. The sales of four
days ending Thursday were 29,000 bales and
market closed, barely maintaining quotations.
Breadstuffs dull—sales unimportant.
Continental letters report that the Peace Con
gress is becoming more and more doubtful. It
is intimated that the French troops are to be
withdrawn from Rome. Letters Irom Geneva
speak of the probability of the resumption of
hostilities in Italy. The King of Naples is in
creasing his army. The Pope has addressed all
the Catholic powers except Sardinia. Charges
are up against Austria of disguised intervention
in Italy. Le Nord stigmatizes the conduct of
Austria as dishonorable and seriously endan
gering peace. Active preparations are making
for the completion of the Suez Canal. Anew
pamphlet against the temporal power of the
Pope has been published. There had been
some revolutionary manifestations in the Papal
provinces.
Later from Europe.
ARRIVAL OF THE TEUTONIA.
New York, Jan. 26.— The Teutonia, from Lon
don, has arrived, with dates to the 7th. Funds were
quoted firmer. There is a renewed disquietude in
Vienna. It is said that Cardinal Wiseman promises
the aid of the Irish Brigade to the Pope.
It is reported that on New Year's day, Victor
Emanuel said to the Neapolitan Ambassador, that
cannon will have to settle the existing complications.

Yes, “eer sin could blight, or sorrow fade,’’
the spirit of this beautiful one has passed a

soul, loving, aching hearts said, we cannot let
you go, oh linger still with us, “dear little

so, and conveyed the opening bud to His Par

not, dear brother and sister, but rejoice, since
“it is so well with the child.” D.
At his residence in Stewart county, Ga,, on
the night of the Cthof January, John Talbot,
aged 6(3 years. Bro. Talbot had been for
many years, a member of the Baptist Church,
and gave evidence, especially in the latter part
of his life, of a growth in grace, and a deep in
terest in the salvation of souls. He was em
phatically a friend to the widow and the or
phan ; a kind and affectionate husband and an
indulgent master.
We believe confidently, that he is enjoying
the rest that remaineth for the people of God.

numbers who were suffering irom Consumption,
Bronchitis, Sore Throat, Coughs, and Colds, and
the debility and nervous depression caused by
these disorders.

SUPER PHOSPHATE OF LIME^
NO. 1, EXTRA,
Prepared by the Penn City Manufacturing Cos.
Penn City Chemical Works.
IN recommending this Superior Fertilizer to the atten
tion of farmers and others interested in agriculture,
we claim for it the advantage of being perfectly reliable,
(much superior to any other article sold under the name
of Super-Phosphate of Lime,) and one that the farmers
can depend upon as being what its name purports, No.
1 EXTRA Article; this Company, owning the entire
Patent Right (granted by the United SLates) for produc
ing a free Acid, thereby enabling them to
produce a Soluble Phosphate of Lime by the addition of
Phosphoric Acid, (which is the indispensable nutriment
of all plants,) instead of Sulphuric Acid or Oil of Vitrol
(as heretofore used.) It is therefore a much richer and
more reliable manure, and one that will not only do more
good at first than any other manure, but will last longer
m the soil.
Willborn’s Mills. Houston Cos., Ga.. Nov. 20,1859.
Messrs. Zeilin & Hunt:— Gentlemen,—Since gather
ing in my cotton crop, I am well pleased with the result
of my experiments made with the Super-Phosphate, pre
pared by Mitchell & Croasaale. I feel quite confident
that it will pay from ninety to one hundred per cent, on
my farm. My land is what might be termed a kind of
sandy loam. This year being mv first experiment. 1 was
not informed what amount should be pui, on the acre,
In using the four tons I bought of you fast Spring. I put
on at the rate of one hundred and thirty pounds per acre
and am of the opinion that about one hundred and fifty
would pay much better for the labor bestowed in the
cultivation. The manner of using was to lay oft’ the
cotton rows with a Scutter Plow ; plough pretty deep,
and let hands follow after and scatter the Phosphate, and
others with plows, and bed on. as part of it was sown
along the furrows. I want you to send me nine tons
more for next Spring; I think the prospect very good to
sell a large quantity in Houston among my neighbors.
I am with sincere regard, Truly yours, &c

The repeated editions of the “THE CASKET”
which have been issued—two editions within a few
months past —fully warrant the assertion that it is
far from having “run its race,” —that it has just
beguit its mission of usefulness*
Though it has had many worthy competitors, its
course has jjbeen onward in the path of public fa

mium has been awarded by its introduction into
church choirs and singing classes. In sending forth
another New Edition, it is hoped that the lriends
of Sacred Melody “will use their exertions to extend
its circulation, and thus render the Casket still
more useful in leading to a higher appreciation of
the claims of Sacred Music.
With reference to the variety of the Casket’s

TESTIMONIALS.
From the Rev. N. M. CRAWFORD, D. D., Presi
dent of Mercer University, Penfield, Ga.
Olshausen’s Commentary I regard as one of the
most valuable contributions to Biblical knowledge
that has appeared in modern times. While I dif
fer from him in some important particulars, I have
no hesitation in recommending his work to all who
desire to be aided in investigating truth.
From the HON. IRA HARRIS, L. L. D , Judge of
the Supreme Court.
Albany, Augnst 25, 1858.
I take pleasure in expressing to you, and to Dr.
Kendrick, my obligations for providing me with
such a work as Olshausen’s Commentary on the
New Testament.
Having been for years engaged in the delight
ful employment of instructing a Bible Class, I had
furnished myself with such helps as were within
my reach, but since I have become acquainted
with Olshausen, I have laid all these aside, In
preparing to meet my class I use nothing but my
Bible and Olshausen. I took up the work at first
with some prejudice against it, for I am notan ad
mirer of German Theology, but when I had gone
far enough to discover the tone and spirit of the
work, my prejndice vanished. Its Evangelical
Spirit, combined with its freshness and originality,
delight me. Every man who takes pleasure in
studying the New Testament should possess him
self of Olshausen.
From President Sears, of Brown University.
Brown University, Aug. 9, 1858.
I regard the Commentary as the most valuable
of those on the New Testament in the English
language, happily combining the religious spirit
of the English expositors With the criticallearning
of the German. The American editor has evi
dently performed his task well, as might be ex
pected from his eminent qualifications.
From Rev. William R. Williams, D. D., Pastor of
Amity Baptist Church.
New York, August 6, 1858.
The Commentaries of Olshausen are remarkable
for their union of the results of critical learning
with devout feeling, and an insight which takes up
very effectively the train of thought in the apostle
or evangelist. In this last respect he appraches
Calvin. Professor Kendrick has bestowed skill
and toil successfully on the American edition;
and its result is a work, the diffusion of which,
among the various Evangelical Churches of our
country, may well because of devout thanksgiving.
From Rev. Philip Schaff, D. D., Professor of the
Theological Seminary at Mercersburg, Pa.
Olshausen’s Commentary on the New Testament,
which is now offered to the American public in a
better form and at a lower price than the German
original, has taken its place, by the consent of
American and European scholars, among the clas
sical works on Exegesis, and commends itself to
the attention of the Biblical Students, especially
for its original f'ieshnes3, its theological depth, its
spiritual uuction, and the happy faculty of explain
ing Scripture by Scripture, and of tracing the in
dividuality as well as the unity and harmony of the
apostolic teaching.

As imported from the Islands of Chincha and

45 to 50 per cent. Phosphate of Lime.
No. 2 warranted to contain 5 per cent. Amonia,

BURPASSING Peruvian Guano in the production
of a first Crop, and Bone Dust in the durable
improvement ot the soil.
“My Manipulated Guano having become the ac
cepted, and successful rival of Peruvian Guano, I
trust I shall be paidoned for putting upon public
record w*hat is so universally known in Baltimore,
that I am solely and exclusively the Originator of
this article by the use of machinery.’’—[American
Farmer, 1857.)
SAVANNAH, December, 1859.
Last year we were induced to accept the agency
for the sale of Kettlewell's Manipulated Guano up
on well authenticated reports received from Mary
land, Virginia and the Carolin&s where this great
and standard Mature, for all crops had been thoro
ughly tried and tested. We issued a circular to the
Planters of Georgia, advising them to buy. Many
huudred tons were distributed throughout thffState,
and was used upon all crops, and as far as wj can
learn the result has been more successful than any
Fertilizer now used in our State. We therefore, ap
pear again before you, with renewed confidence
more thoroughly based upon experiment and actu
al demonstration and observation. Since our last,
our Senior has visited Mr. John Kettlewell in Balti
more, in order that we might learn everything per
taining to this Guano, every facility was granted
him by Mr. Kettlewell, and his General Agent, Mr.
G. Obear, to investigate his works, process of Man
ipulation and character of Guano used, Ac., which
he availed himself of, and was greatly surprised
at the magnitude of Mr. Kettlewell's enterprise.-
Over two acres of valuable ground is covered with
costly machinery, buildings, Ac. The business be
ing conducted with the utmost care and system. Gu
ano of the choicest kinds are selected and Manipu
lated with great precision, and with the means in
vested and employed to carry on this work, he came
to the conclusion that this Guano is entitled to all
the confidence and character claimed for it. So
successtul has Mr. Kettlewell's enterprise been that
many articles are forced upon the public claiming
to be Manipulated Guano, Ac., mere imitations, with
no claim to the name of Manipulation, mere mix
tures by hand and shovel of Guanos of doubtful
character —hence, the importance of proper discrim
ination, by Planters. Mr. Kettlewell comes endor
sed to you, and can refer to responsible citizens of
our own State.
The Hon. Howell Cobb, of Georgia, says that he
i* a personal friend of mine, of many years stand
ing, and who I can with great pleasure commend as
a gentleman in every respect worthy of your regard
and confidence.
Other Guanos are being introduced to the atten
tion of Planters, containing but little Phosphate ot
Lime and no Amonia, the essential elements neces
sary for the growth of crops. Kettlewell’s Manipu
lated Guano will commend itself for the following
reasons.
Ist. Because it is imported Guano, intimately com
bined, so as to meet the wants of crop and soil, and
not a manufactured article.
2d. Its fine and dry condition—making it ready
for immediate application, without shelving orgrin
ding.
3d. In production of erop and permanent improve
ment of land, it surpasses all other Fertilizers, not
excepting Peruvian Guano.
4th. Its low price.
Peruvian Guano contains 16 per cent, of Amonia
and only 25 to 30 per cent, of Phosphate of Lime. —
By reducing the Amonia one-ha’f, and doubling the
Phosdate of Lime, a tar more valuable Fertilizer
must be produced. It has been demonstrated that
8 per cent, of Amonia is enough for all crops—more
is injurious, besides expensive. Indeed, many pre
fer the No. 2 Manipulated Guano, because it con
tains a larger per centage of Phosphate of Lime ;
the simple reason why cotton seed is so valuable a
Manure is owing principally to this element.
The No. 2 may not produce as large a first crop on
some soils, but as a permanent Fertilizer is surpas
sed by none. The advantages named with the dis
ference in price to Peruvian Guano, ought to sup
plant every prejudice and convince the most obsti
nate mind. Certificates regarding the use of this
Guano from prominent Planters of our State, could
be added, but we deem it entirely unnecessary, re
ferring to pamphlets on hand and in circulation for
further inlormation. It is important that orders
should be sent in early in the season. The harbor
of Baltimore is frequently closed Ly ice, thus oh
structiug ail navigation.
We ask our patrons of last season to furnish us
with their orders, and solicit a trial from all planters
desiring an increase of crop and improvement of
soil. In consequence of delay in receiving orders
last season we w ere not able to supply the demand,
this year it is our desire to promptly fill every order,
and therefore solicit early attention to handing in
orders. We will supply from a single sack to any
number of tons that maybe wanted. The Guano
is put up in handsome sacks, and will be sold here
at $53 per ton for No. I, and S4B per ton for No. 2.
The mode oPapplication is very simple, applied
broadcast, in bill or drill, in quantity precisely as
Peruvian Guano, say from 100 to 300 lbs. per acre,
with the advantage of permanent improvement, the
more liberally it is applied.
Terms cash, or iis equivalent.
