meant. The answer was, ‘lt is the young
men’s twilight prayer meeting.'" Do you not
know that my good brother deacon’s heart was
delighted to know his boy, away from fashionable
ci<y life and habits, was in that prayer meeting?
Yes; he felt, no doubt, willing to be troubled in
getting to Penfield, after arriving, to find his boy
in the quiet, religious society of that quiet spot.
I will not say that the twilight prayer meeting
could not be had in your city or Macon—perhaps
it would ; but I do say—and you know it—that
while the prayer meeting would be held, the ex
citements of the city amusements, and city con
ventionalities, would distract the minds of our
boys, and, in the language of a popular farce,
“Shoo fly, shoo, don’t bodder me,” it would be
“for the Shoo fly, shoo, to-night.” “Oh, how it
does bodder me." “Boys, didn’t ‘Rogers and Tal
bott’ sing ‘Shoo fly’ to perfection last night?”
Yes, yes. This is all according to human nature,
and there is no denying it. Therefore, let us
guard against troubles, and locate our college, il
to be moved, at Griffin, Ga., near the centre 01
“the empire State of the South.” I did think, once
in my hie, that I would have no boys to educate ;
but not so now. I have three boys to prepare foi
life, and [ wish to educate them in a Baptist col
lege—“ Mercer University;” and, therefore, I am
in favor of “Mercer" at Penfield or at Griffin,
Madison or Marietta ; but will consider the ques
tion before putting them in “Mercer” at Macon or
Atlanta. The moral and religious training of our
boys is of far more importance than even their
mental training. If there is any neglect, let it be
of the bead rather than the heart; and the loca
tion has much to do with ttie heart training. VY T ho
will deny it? May our good brethren of the Geor
gia Baptist Convention be governed by God’s
blessed influence and guidance during their delib
eration on this subject in April, is the wish of a
friend to “Mekcer.”
Macon, Ga., March 20th, 1870.
Young Reaper: Rev. A. E. Dickinson.
Rev. A. E. Dickinson has been elected as
sociate editor of the Young Reaper , a Sun
day school paper published by the American
Baptist Publication Society.— Richmond. Die
patch.
In reference to the above statement, which
has appeared in several of our exchanges, it
may be proper to say a word or two:
1. The American Baptist Publication So
ciety has never, in any manner, interfered
with the work of the Southern Baptist Con
vention. To the hundreds who have appealed
to it for aid, its secretary has said, “ VVe wish
to help, but for no consideration would we do
anything which can be fairly construed as
antagonistic to jour own chosen agencies.”
That such has been the spirit and course pur
sued by this Society may be proven not only
by the late secretary of the Sunday School
Board, but by brethren in every part of the
South.
2. The Young Reaper has a very consider
able circulation in the Sunday schools of the
South; and though nothing of a sectional
character is allowed a place in its columns,
and some of its most valuable contributors
are from the South, yet it has seemed to
many that a paper read by a million of the
youth of America should have both of the
great sections of the country represented in
its editorial management. It was believed
that such an arrangement would not be detri
mental to any. existing interest. If we were
to accept, this position, we should endeavor
to induce schools in the South to have a pa
per for every Sunday. One of the wisest of
our superinten dents, as the result of much
r< flection and observation, stales that the
cheapest and best means of supplying chil
dren with suitable literature, is to give each
of them a paper every Sunday. Books are
lost or soiled, and the cost of keeping up a
library is considerable, while for a much
smaller sum papers can be procured which
will prove greatly more interesting and profit
able to Sunday school scholars. As the Kind
Words and the Young Reaper are each a
semimonthly, by taking both, each school
may be able to do this. VVe do not hesitate
to say, however, that where but one paper
can lie taken we should recommend Kind
Words, because it is published by a Board of
our own Convention.
3. There is, in connection with this propo
sition, a great fact to which we would direct
the attention of the Sunday school workers
in the South. Avery large proportion of the
Buptvt Sunday schools in the South do not
take a Sunday school paper. Two-thirds ot
them, we may safely say, do not. This is
not due to any fsiluie on the part of the ex
cellent men who have in charge our paper at
Memphis. The same was true when that
paper was published at Greenville, S. 0.
The colporters and agents of the American
Tract Society and of the American Sunday
School Union, taking advantage of this state
of things, are introducing their papers into
our schools. They are offering them at are
duced price, and unless something is done,
and that speedily, the papers of these Union
Societies will ha.eavery large circulation
among the Baptist schools of the South. So
far from uttering an unkind word against the
Tract Society and the Sunday School Union,
we praise them for the remarkable zeal which
they are displaying in directing and controll
ing the reading of Baptist schools. But we
do insist that the time has come when Baptist
Sunday school workers in our impoverished
section should consider whether the cause of
truth may not be promoted by availing our
selves of the aid which is offered us by the
Reaper. Poor schools can be supplied with
it on terms so favorable that even those which
are patronizing the Union papers will find it
to their interest (pecuniarily) to take the
Reaper, which is fully and thoroughly de
nominational, while hundreds of mission
schools which are unable to secure a paper
will at once be supplied without money and
without price. We cannot afford to remain
inactive at such an important crisis. Every
legitimate influence must be exerted to make
Baptists of the children of Baptists, and surely
one of the most potent agencies for accom
plishing this is to place Baptist literature in
their hanls while we have them under our
control, and while lasting impressions may
so easily be made upon their tender and con
sid ing hearts.— Rev. A. E. Dickinson, in Re
ligious Herald.
Jr.sus.—The Israelite , Cincinnati, says:
“The God Jesus is the product of the church
of the second and third centuries. The man
Jesus was a Pharisean rabbi of excellent in
tentions and enthusiastic aspirations, in the
realization of which he failed entirely. He
fell a victim to the move of his disciples, who
proclaimed him the Messiah; a move which
delivered him into the hands of Roman au
thorities. lie tried to carry into effect that
wh oh Moses taught, the prophets advocated
and expounded, and the Pharisees believed.
He tried and failed. But this would never
have cost him his life, had not Rome governed
in Palestine, and had not his disciples pro
claimed him the Messiah. That is the point
where were shali land. What part God Al
mighty had in that drama, is matter of meta
physical speculation, with which the historian
has no business, no more than he has with
the death of Gennanicus, Huss, or John
Brown.” The Christian Intelligencer speaks
of this as blasphemy. Tne independent,
however, says: “His error of opinion may
well be deplored; but to charge him
with blasphemy on that account, is the very
acme of stupidity and bigotry.” As this lat
ter paper finds it impossible to be Christian,
might it not as well turn Jew ?
Very Natural —“ Don’t you wish that
you was a minister’s v. ife,” said a gentleman
to a lady, in commenting upon the general re
membrance of ministers’ families at this
gift season of the year, “so that you might
have anew dress given to you.” “ No, Ido
not,” she promptly replied. “It would take
away h If the pleasure of having it if 1 could
not buy it myself.”

BY THE PBOPRIETOB.
To CoBBESPo.VDurTs.—We beg the brethren generally
o furnish us with news from the churches—ordinations,
pastoral changes, revivals—every thing, in fact, which
enters into the current history of the denomination.
3uch intelligence is always thankfully received and
pitolished promptly.
'Communications of any character, to insure an in
sertion iu the issue of the current week, must reach us
by Moxda.t. Let all of our friends bear this in mind.
The improvement in the health of the Proprietor,
of which we spoke last week, was not so decided as
we persuaded ourselves. He has been in much dan
ger and has suffered extremely since. The present
aspect of the case is fairly put, in the following para
graph from the Era of this city:
“ We are glad to learn that the attending physician.
Dr. Powell, considers that be has Mr. Toon’s disea-e
irrested ; and though he has been greatly prostrated
>y the violence of the attack, hopes are entertained
that he will be speedily convalescent. This will be
gratifying intelligence to Mr. Toon’s many friends in
and out of the city.”
There are days—perhaps weeks—of suffering, pros
tration and patience, which lie yet between him anti
the active resumption of business: and he hopes that
his friends will grant him their indulgence under
these circumstances. He gratefully appreciates the
kind sympathy extended to him from so many quar
ers.

on the Ist of April another quarterly payment is due.
The Professors cannot live without these payments.

for instalments already due. In addition to other de
mands upon him, fsr. Broad us is having a valuable
book stereotyped, agd the in >nev must be paid for il.
If the salaries were paid, mutual help might be given.
I beg brett-ren not to wait to pay money at the Con

Especially is Ibis asked of those already owing instal
ment-on bonds, and more especially of those owing
upon five hundred dollar bonds. Will not others, 100.

This sterling Pioneer Company of the South, has a
system of well-ordered Tables of Kates of Premium,
embracing all the improvements in Life Insurance.
Its many new and liberal features present advantages
not claimed by any other Southern Company.
\ssets and Reserve secure and ample lor ail contin
gencies. Issues Policies ot Lite Insurance on us favor

Business conducted on both stock and mutual plans.
The most popular and advantageous forms, and favor
able terms for Insurance, presented.
Business conducted with a strict regard to economy.
No unnece sary expenses permitted.
Fullest legal stcurity to wives and children guaran
teed under charter.
Removal of all restrictions of residence, travel, or
occupation.
For the first time in the history of Life Insurance,
equaliz ition of annual payments, where loans are ta
ken, has been established by the Georgia Mutual!
By this device tber will be no accumulation of in
terest. Payments will remain uniform, thus avoiding
a causey of misunderstanding so liable to arise under
methods udopted by other Companies.
GUARANTEE INTEREST TABLE.
The Georgia Mutual is the first Southern Company
to issue policies guaranteeing six per cent, compound
interest, in addition to the assurance of the amount
insured.
It is confidently expected that the Dividend Annui
ties will fully eqita trie highest rates of interest paid
by Savings Institutions, while the policies themselves
must be held as au investment equally as profitable and
secure as lauds or government bonds.
Bv these policies the longest lives are secured the
full-si benefits of their insurance in the constant re
currence of llieir annuities; and the sooner the annuity
commences, the better for the party insured.
This policy is positive in its character, simple in its
provisions, and, in its mathematical structure, within
the comprehension of minds of the most model ate cul
ture.

me in building up a Hume Company whose merits and
