losses, is stated at $229,000. We appeal,
therefore, to the denomination for a sum of
not less than ONE HUNDRED THOU
SAND DOLLARS. And ask that, between
now und the second Sabbath in January next,
a contribution be taken in each church, and
Sabbath school; and, as far as possible, from
pach individual member, towards the general
fund, or any of the special objects. Persons
who desire, may specify one or more of the
interests named, to which their gifts shall be
devoted, or may leave the committee to di
vide it according to the needs and claims of
all.
It is not intended to make this appeal to
the exclusion of the usual and general wants
and claims of the University or Seminary,
but as Bpecial aid, in this hour of special
trial.
We hope it will not be considered boastful
if we submit to all the comparative work and
growth of the spiritual and educational inter
ests of the Baptists here, with that of our
brethren of other denominations or of our
own houshold of faith in other cities and
States. In a great sense we, in the’North
*V est, represent you all. Shall one member
suffer and the whole body suffer not ? Our
sister churches of other denominations have
already received from their brethren substan
tial pledges of the amounts needed by them.
We make this appeal, assured that you are
unwilling to have us lose the vantage-ground
we have held as a denomination in this city.
Funds may be sent to our Treasurer:
James F. Gillette, No. 394 Michigan Avenue,
Chicago, 111.
Fnally, brethren, pray for us. We are
troubled on every side, yet not distressed.
We are perplexed, but not in despair; smit
ten, but not forsaken; cast down, but not
destroyed. Now the GOD of peace, that
brought again from th@ dead the LORD
JESUS, that Great Shepherd of the sheep,
through the blood of the everlasting cove
nant, MAKE TOC PERFECT IN EVERT GOOD WORK,
working in you that which is well-pleasing in
His sight, through J ESUS CHRIST, to whom
be glory forever and ever. Amen.

IleT. Levi Thornton.
Whereas, Some malicious person has cir
culated the report that our pastor, Rev. Levi
Thornton, is an adulterer, in that ho has two
living wives: and whereas, the Moderator of
the Ebenezer, Association did, at the last
session of the Association, treat him disre
spectfully in consequence of said report:
Resolved, That we, as a church, have un
bounded confidence in Bro. Thornton as a
consistent Christian and devoted minister of
the gospel, and that we fully approve of his
abandoning his first wife, she being an adul
tress, as was cleariy proven in his suit fer
a divorce.
Resolved, That in our humble judgment,
Bro. Thornton has a divorce which is sanc
tioned, not simply the laws of the State, but
by the law ol God. See Matt, v: 32;
xix: 9.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions
be sent to the Christian Index and South-
Western Baptist, with the request that they
be published.
Done by order of the Springfield (colored)
Baptist church, at Greensboro, Ga., in Con
ference, November 18th, 1871.
R. Hobbs, C. C.
Rev. J. A. Preston, who sends us these
resolutions, says : As the Index was eudorsed
by the Association, it is thought to be the
proper medium through which to publish
them. All, both white and black, who are
acquainted with the circumstances, justify
Levi in putting away his first wife, as she
was a most abandoned character, a notorious
adultress. His suit for a divorce was upon
the ground of adultery; and he made out a
clear case. He is an intelligent negro, and,
in my judgment, is doing a great work among
his people here. All have confidence in him.
I have taken this interest in the matter, be
cause 1 do not wish his influence in our com
munity lost, and further, because I think it
but justice to a good man and to the cause
of Christ.
Truly a Great Man lias Fallen in Israel.
On last Sunday morning, during the ser
vices in the Baptist church in this place, the
congregation was startled by the sad an
nouncement from the pulpit of the death of
Dr. N. M. Crawford, the former pastor of the
church. At the close of the sermon, Hon.
P. B. Robinson rose from his seat with a
countenance which told of deeper and more
heart-felt grief than language could express,
and in a feeling and appropriate manner re
ferred to the many noble qualities of intel
lect and heart which had characterized the
life and labois of that great and good man,
both in public and private life. He spoke of
his great attainments in piety and knowledge,
and referred to his work entitled, “ Christian
Paradoses,” as a monument to his piety and
wisdom, and as one of the works calculated
to instruct as well as comfort Christians in all
the relations of life. The audience heard the
touching tribute of Judge R. with breathless
silence, and many shed tears. Though Dr.
Crawford’s Christian laoors in this comma
nity ended long before our day, it is unmis
takably clear that he has left his impress
upon the minds and hearts of all classes. His
memory and deeds live in the hearts of the
people. He lived to illustrate the value and
beauty of the Christian religion ; and though
now “ gathered to his fathers, full of years
and honors,” his labors in the church of Christ
are neither lost nor forgotten.
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: ATLANTA, CA„ THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 30,1871.
One by one, the great and good men of the
land are passing away; at a time, too, when
church and State need ripe experience and
mature wisdom. Young men, we trust, will
rise up and emulate their virtues, and imitate
their examples. It is no small achievement
in these degenerate times, to leave behind a
record which challenges the inspection and
approval of God and man. This, we think,
can be safely said of the distinguished and la
mented subject of this notice.
Judge Robinson concluded his remarks, by
offering the following preamble and resolu
tions, which were unanimously adopted by
the church:
Whereas, The Baptist church at Greenes
boro, Ga., have this day received intelligence
of the death of Rev. Dr. N. M. Crawford,
formerly the pastor of the church, and still
cherishing the fond recollection of his minis
terial labors and works of love in their behalf,
and desirous of payiug to his memory that
tribute of respect so justly due him : there
fore,
Resolved, That in the death of Rev. Dr. N.
M. Crawford, the church of Christ has lost
one of its ablest ministers, society one of its
most useful members, the country one of its
purest patriots, and mankind one of their
best friends.
Resolved, That, as a church, we tender our
condolence and heart felt sympathy to his
bereaved and afflicted family.
Resolved, That these proceedings be re
corded upon the Minutes of the church and
published in the Christian Index and Greenes •
boro Herald. — Herald, Nov. 2.
France. —Baptist sentiments are making
progress in the Pedobapti-st churches of
France. The practice of the public dedica
tion of infants without baptism is taking the
place of infaut baptisms in private houses.
A writer in the Archives du Christianisme
remarks that “ the true principles are pent*!
trating more deeply, which will result in the
admission of members to the church on their
voluntary and personal profession. This,”
he says, “ will inaugurate the practice of be
lievers’ baptism, in contradiction to the bap
tism of new-born infants.” lie adds, “ These
principles are, in my view, reasonable.”

Missionary Murrow still holds to the opinion,

Mr. W. Sigerson stated recently, at the meet

Shaker Preserves. —Avery superior article

the Montgomery firm.
Extras. —We are anxious to send out, to earnest
readers, at least five hundred extra papers per
week. Who will co-operate with us in this effort
to enlarge our denominational work ? Pastors, as
well as enterprises, will be benefitted. Who can,
or ought to be more vitally interested in such
efforts than our Pastors and Preachers? A
united rush is the word.

twelve months with a paper, and never pay the

Col. J. A. R. Hanks.— As candidates before the
Legislature for the office of Comptroller General,
there are good and competent men. But in bring
ing forward the name of Col. Hanks for the office,
we might bo excused for saying that “ he is our
man”—our first choice. The light of day will not
likely dawn upon the acts and doings of our pres
ent General Assembly, more to the satisfaction
and security of Georgia interests, than the day of
Col. Hanks’ election to the office of Comptroller
General of the State of Georgia.
The first cost of the fences in the United States,

Lane, 50c.; H. Westberry, 25c.; cash, $1.00; J.
C. Williams, R. Beavers, M. Brown, each $1.00;
unknown, $2.00. The health of brother Williams
is improving slowly.
Singing and Reading.— -An unlutored, inexpe
rienced, and incompetent reader ol the notes of
music in a choir of singers, is as much out of his
or her place, in the “music loft,” as a bungling
reader of poetry or prose, on the platform, or in
the pulpit. Wisdom would direct, that in the
absence of the skill and ability to read, speak or
sing, to edification, “the grace of silence.”
The Bickford Knitting Machine is regarded
with great favor by skillful mechanics. The Scien
tific American of June last gave a flattering ac
count of its performances. It says: “We have
taken great pleasure in personally inspecting and
operating this machine, and have become con
vinced that it comprises all that is essential for
family use.” Higher testimony need not be called
for, than the above.
Compared with other machines, it will be found
more simple, and not so liable to get out of order;
requires less skill to work it. Samples of its
work can be had by enclosing 15 cents to “ Agent
Bickford Knitting Machine, Atlanta, Ga.” Price
of number one machine, for family use, with late
improvements, $25. For 25 subscribers (15 new
and 10 old) to the Index at $3 each, a number one
machine will be furnished free of charge. ts
Personal. —We were pleased to receive a call,
during the past week, from Dr. Ayer’s traveller,
who was in our town devoting his time and atten
tion to the preparations of the great medicine man.
This call has become a pleasant annual to us from
the able and reliable business character of the ac
complished gentleman whom this firm send out to
transact their business. No house is better known
or valued by the press for its promptness in set
tlement than the well-established and popular J.
C. Ayer & Cos., Lowell, Mass., whose medicines
have become a household necessity, and won the
confidence and praise of all. Our own acquaint
ance with them has extended over a series of
years, and we have invariably found them, their
travellers and their medicines worthy of the com
mendation they everywhere receive.— Jackson

Be Careful. —In these days, when tight hats,
hot air, and sedentary occupations, cause the hair to
fall out, it is a matter of no little importance to
know which of the hair preparations are of any
value. Tire majority, as lias been frequently proved
by the first dermatologists, or liair-doctors, possess
little or no merit. Such being the fact, it is consol
ing to those who are afflicted to know there is really
one good article , which is recommended and used by
the first medical authority, and has stood every test,
many years. This preparation is Hall’s Vegetable
Sicilian Hair Renewer, —a truly scientific com
pound, which is unquestionably the best preparation
of the kind now before tin* American public. It
will restore to gray hair its original color, cleanse
the head thoroughly, cure all eruption of the scalp;
and will always restore the hair so long as any
germs remain, as they almost invariably do, until
extreme old age lias destroyed the roots. Tho

At a late meeting of the Board of Educas
tion, the following preamble and resolutions,
in reference to the death of Dr. O’Keefe, were
passed :
Whereas, Death has taken from us one of
the most active and energetic members of this
Board, Dr. D. C. O'Keefe, depriving us of
his influence and his counsel, and inflicting
upon this Board, as well as the city, a loss
that may be truly designated as irreparable ;
and,
Whereas, The medical profession has lost
one who reflected honor on his calling by his
erudition and experience ; education a persis
tent, untiring and strenuous advocate ; society
at large a cultivated gentleman ; and the State
one of her best and truest citizens; “ neither
harsh nor timid one who neither sought nor
avoided honors; who was a true man in ail
the relations of life; therefore, be it
Resolved, That this Board, in giving ex
pression to their deep sorrow at the loss of
one of their number, who was the first to ad
vocate the public school system in Atlanta,
tender their sincere condolence to the family
of the deceased.
Resolved, That a page on the minutes of
this Board be dedicated to his memory, and
a copy of these resolutions be furnished his
faaiily.

MRS. SARAH ELIZABETH JONES.—plsed away
from earth to her home in heaven, on the BQih day of
September last. Mrs. Sarah Elizabeth Jonti, the be
loved wife of Rev. Frederick Jones, ot the city of Mo
bile, Aia. She was the oldest daughter of Ichabodand
Sarah H. Hood, formerly of the city of Monticellc, Ga.,
and moved to Alabama when quite a little girl.
Lovely in person, accomplished in mind, with a heart
given to the Saviour in early life, she sustained the po
sitions of daughter, wife and info her, dischtrging with
fidelity, and the most unflinching devotion, the duties
devoiviug upon her.
Her end was peaceful indeed, with implicit faith in
the merits of her Redeemer, an® a lively consciousness
of her acceptance with him. She dreaded not the “ pas
sage through the dark valley,” feeling that “Bis rod
and Bis staff were comforting her.”
Preceded to the heavenly world by three dear little
cliiidt ett, she spoke of bet- rcnfoLj with them with great
delight, at the same lime endeavoring to comfort the
striekenen ones, she was aboutyo leave, with the asm
ranee that it would not be long before all would meet
agaiu, where parting is unknefm, And so she died,
peacefully breathing her life allay ou the bosom of her
dear Saviour,
So lades a summer clotf^Jrway,
So dies the day w-hetifEruas are o’er,
So gently shuts the eye oTday,
ho dies a wave along the shore.
It is the prayer of those bereaved, especially of him
to whom she was so precious, that they may obtain the
same precious faith
To smile in anguish and rejoice in death.

MISS ELIZABETH .1 COOPER.—Died, in Atlanta,
Ga., 14th September, 1871, Miss Elizabeth J. Cooper,
after a lingering and painful Jlluess. She was born
17th January, ISOB, and most of her life was spent un
der the roof of her uncle, the good and much-honored
Deacon Thomas Cooper, of Eaton ton, Ga., who was
truly a father to her. She thus had opportunities of
enjoying the society of many of our distinguished min
isters, who were accustomed to make Ins hospitable
home their resort during their visits to the place. Un
der the influence of such devoted Christians as Sher
wood, Mallory, Campbell, Dawson, etc., she could not
fail to become imbued with their self-sacrificing and
zealous spirit. She had been converted in early life,
and had joined the Methodist church; but her views
undergoing a change, she united with the Baptists and
was baptized by Rev. John E. Waweoa, in Eatonton. She
lived a consistent Christian life, was ever ready, with a
reason,for the hope that wasin her,and contended earn
estly for the faith she professed. She was faithful in the
discharge of duties, a constant reader of the Bible,
charitable to all around her, and an instrument of ac
complishing great good in the c ause of Christ. Her
ht a lib was never goaad, and for many years she was
subject to severe suffering, and for the last year she
had been coi.tiaaed to her room. Yet she was very pa
tient, and bore pain with great fortitude. She would
often say, “It is all right; not the half that I deserve.”
She was willing, yes, anxious to die, and conversed
with perfect calmness on the Subject of her departure,
and made every arrangement as if for a journey from
one country to another. She bad no terror of the grave;
for she said that “Jesus would illumine the tomb and
be her glorious light through the valley and shadow of
death.” She retained her consciousness to the last;
and when asked, only a few moments before she died,
if all was well, she said, “Oh yes! rejoice! rejoice!”
She has passed from earth and' all its cares, and her
friends can but rejoice that she has entered the Blessed
Land," where her happy spirit will evermore enjoy
these pleasures, found at the right hand of that pre
cious Redeemer in whom was ail her trust. B.
W. S. WILLIAMS.—A good man has fallen, Bro-
Wra. S. Williams is no more. He was summoned to
“ meet his God” on the 22n(Lday of October last. The
subject of this notice was, in truth, one of the Lord’s
disc pics. He was united to Concord Baptist church,
in Jasper county, Ga , on the 10th day of December,
1529- Was baptized by Eld. Thomas Rhodes. On the
23rd of March, 1832, was ordained deacon of the
church. Elder James Cirrier and Eider Henderson
were the i’res%iery •—AU. agaw'.-d JahhfoUy iu the of
fice of deacon'SJc) years and 7 months up to tho time of
his death. And, as strangeias it may uppear, our good
brother, ns the writer was informed, only missed three
conferences at his that long series of
years. While lie was a man of industrious habits, and
wrought well for his family, he did not forget to “ lay
up treasure in heaven;” they were there untarnished,
uucoroded, availing his call. We learn that be was
sorely afflicted, yet bore his sufferings like a Christian;
but finally, God took him away from the earth, because
he was the Lord’s, and gave him, as we believe, “u
better country, that is an heavenly.” Then, shall we
not repeat Holy Writ, and say, “Blessed are the dead
which die in the Lord!” In,the death of ibis man of
G >d, the church at Bethel has lost one of her brightest
ornaments, the community its best friend. But libove
all, a devoted wife and loving children have lost one
whose vacant place can never be filled on earth. Yes,
bereaved ones, his counsels will never more be heard ;
but heed those that fell from his lins, in years gone by.
Aspire to imitate him in his devotions to God, aiul holi
ness of life. He willingly yielded up his soul. The
cold waters of Jordan parted, he passed over, and has
entered into his rest. Let all the earth praise the Lord
tor the “ unspeakable gift.” F. M. C.
HI Ft AM GARRARD.--Died at his residence, near
Pine Level, Ala., Nov. 7th, 1871, Hiram Garrard, aged
70 years, 7 months and 13 days.
The subject of this notice was born in Wilkes county,
Ga., March 24th, 1800. When he was about six years of
age, bis father, Jacob Gairaid, moved to Putnam
county, Ga., and afterwards to Newton county, Ga. In
1825, Dro. Garrard became fully acquainted with Jesu3,
the sinner’s only true friend, and after a profession of
faith in Christ, and being “ buried with firm by bap
tism,” Is* was cordially received into the fellowship of
the Baptist.ehurch at Flat Rock, Putnam county, Ga.
Here he went to work for Jesus, and grew so rapidly
iu the graces which adorn tiro Christian life, and in the
confidences and esteem of his brethren, that, in two
years, he was ordained to the deaconship of the churcb.
In 1852, be moved to Alabama and settled near Pine
Level, Montgomery county, and his membership was
transferred from Flat Rock, Ga., to Pine Level, Ala.
He discharged the active duties of deacon 42 or 4-3
years. He used the office well, and has purchased to
himself “a good degree, and great boldness in the faith
which is in Christ Jesus.”
His last illness was protracted beyond expectation.
But he bore his afflictions with fortitude and patience,
often saying, ‘-These afflictions are nothing, compared
with what Christ suffered for me.” A few days before
his departure, the writer visited him, and by request,
read a Psalm of David, tried to pray, and then sang
two stanzas of that beautiful hymn, “My latest sua is
sinking fast,” to the tune of the “Land of Beulah.” At
the close of the second stanza, (notwithstanding his
physical weakness,) he raised himself in the bed, ex
claiming, “I shall soon be there —I am almost home.
Bless the Lord. O my soul.” From that time until he
departed this life, (we have been told,) he had no fear
of death, —not a single cloud intervened between him
and his God. Bro. Garrard leaves three sons and four
daughters, together with a large circle es relatives and
friends, to mourn his loss. -
I would like exceedingly well to indulge in a descrip
tion of the many virtues and excellencies which marked
his history ; but I have already transcended the limits
for such notices. I will sayAfi short, for the satisfac
tion of all concerned, that ifraas a Christian gentle
man. To know him was but to love him. O, that we
had more Garrards in our churches.
“ Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of
bis saints.” The Baptist wiH please copy.

Ayer’s Ague Cure,
For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &c.,
and indeed ail tho affections which arise
from malarious, marsh, or miasmatic
poisons.
~ Epy No one remedy i3 louder
§§g j§||j called for by the necessities of
» the American people than a
B |l|/ sure and safe cure for Fever
1 J nn 4 Ague. Such we are now
■Wm A/ enabled to offer, with a perfect
Jf certainty that it will eradicate
“ tho disease, and with assur
ance, founded ou proof, that no harm can arise
from its use in any quantity.
That which protects from or prevents this dis
order must be of immense service in the com
munities where it prevails. Prevention is better
than cure, for the patient escapes the risk which
he must run in violent attacks of this baleful dis
temper. This “CURE” expels the miasmatic
poison of Fever and Agee front the system,
and prevents the development of the disease, if
taken on tho first approach of its premonitory
symptoms. It is not only the best remedy ever
yet discovered for this class of complaints, but
also the cheapest. The large quantity wo sup
ply for a dollar brings it within the reach of
everybody; and in bilious districts, where
Fever and Ague prevails, everybody should
have it, and use it freely, both for cure and pro
tection. It is hoped this price will place il within
the reach of alf—tho poor as well as the rich.
A groat superiority ot this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cureoflntermittents is, that it contains no Qui
nine or mineral; consequently it produces no
quinism or other injurious effects whatever upon
the constitution. Those cured by it are left as
healthy as if they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence
of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of dis
orders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asth
ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection of the Spleen,
Hysterics, Pain in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis,
and derangement of the Stomach, all of which,
when originating in this cause, put ou tho in
termittent type, or become periodical. This
“Cure” expels the poison from the bleed; and
consequently cures them all alike. It is an in
valuable protection to immigrants and persons
travelling or temporarily residing in the mala
rious districts. If taken occasionally or daily
while exposed to the infection, that will he ex
creted from the system, and cannot accumulate
in sufficient quantity to ripen into disease.
Hence it is even more valuable for protection
than cure; and few will ever suffer from Inter
mittents if they avail themselves of the protec
tion tlii3 remedy affords.
For Elver Comvlaints, arising from torpid
ity of the Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stim
ulating the Liver into health) activity, and pro
ducing many truly remarkable cures, where

control them. The testimony of our best citi
zens, of all classes, establishes the fact, that
Cherry Pectoral will and does relieve and
cure the afflicting disorders of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases of Consump
(io:i. cured by this preparation, are public
ly known, so remarkable as hardly to be be
lieved, were they not proven beyond dispute.
Asa remedy it is* adequate, on which the public
may rely for full protection. By curing Coughs,
the* forerunners of more serious disease, it saves
unnumbered lives, and an amount of suffering
not to be computed. It challenges trial, and con
vinces the most sceptical. Every family should
keep it on hand ns a protection against tne early
and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Affections,
which are easily met at first, but which become
incurable, and too often fatal, if neglected. Ten
der lungs need this defence; and it is unwise to
be without it. Asa safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset the Throat
and Chest of childhood, Cherry Pectoral
is invaluable; for, bv its timely use, multi
tudes aro rescued froin premature graves, and
saved to the love and affection centred on them.
It act s speedily and surely against ordinary colds,
securing sound and health-restoring sleep. No
one will suffer troublesome Influenza and pain
ful Bronchitis, when they know liow easily
they can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost or toil
is -pared in making every bottle in the utmost
posable perfection. It may be confidently re
lied upon as possessing all the virtues it has ever
exhibited, and capable of producing cure3 as
memorable as the greatest it lias ever effected.
