State (Bm.tttee T Hlmlms How It was Ap-
Ifptlated—Sone Objections to tho Plu.
Ab this committee was appointed by
the Georgia Baptist Convention at its
recent session at Thomasville, it may
be well to put upon record some facts
concerning it, for the information of
brethren who were not present. The
subject has been discussed in the col
umns of The Index and in the sessions
of the Convention for several years
past. In Macon, four or five years ago,
a committee was appointed, who made
a report in favor of a Board for Mis
sions, which was not adopted. At
Rome, another committee was appoint
ed, who were allowed a whole year to
mature a plan. That committee failed
to agree, and came into the Convention
at Americus with a majority and minor
it/ report —both of which, if I remem
ber rightly, were laid on the table. At
Milledgeville, the qcestion was again
up, but it was thought best to defer
action still longer, inthe hope that time
might bring' about a oneness of senti
ment. At Thomasville, on the first day
of the session, “Rev. M. B. Hardin,
moved that a committee be appointed,
to which all matters on Missions and
Sunday schsolsbe referred, which com
mittee shall report on Saturday next.
Adopted.” (See Index, May 4.) The
names of the committee were included
in the resolution, every one of whom
was understood to be opposed to an In
dependent State Board. I learned af
terwards that the views of one of this
committee —Brother A. Bell, of Savan
nah—were not entirely coincident with
the other members. The effect of this
action, if not the intention, was to take
the whole question out of the hands
of the real friends of a State Board,
until such time at least as that com
mittee might find it convenient to re
port. They did not report till late Sat
urday afternoon. The friends and for
mer advocates of a State Board were
not consulted. But their report, (which
was adopted by a majority of those
who voted, though not of tho Conven
tion,) was offered as a “compromise.”
Bor one, I could not accept it as such,
and for the folllowing reasons:
1. It fails to specify what disposition
shall he made of funds raised in the
State for Domestic Missions. Those
contributed for Foreign Missions will,
of course, go into tho Treasury of the
Foreign Mission Board. It is taken for
granted that those designed for Domes
tic Missions will be sent to the Board
at Marion. If so, they will be subject
to the same assessment for the “expen
ses” of that Board as is made upon its
other receipts, which amounted year
before last to 33£ per cent, and last
year to 53 per cent. This enormous
percentage might have been saved for
use among the poor churchos and in
the destitute regions of Georgia, if the
Convention had organized an Indepen
dent Board for State Missions.
2. This plan does not obviate the
objections which some of us have had
for years past to the operations of the
Home Mission Board iu this State.
Those operations, except iu the matter
of collecting money, have dwindled
down to almost nothing. I inquired
of Brother Mclntosh at Thomasville
liow many missionaries his Board then
had in Georgia. He replied three —
Brethren Daniel and Atkinson oil the
coast, and brother Corn in Upper
Georgia. Tho Board pays brother
Daniel nothing, though he receives a
commission from them, and has his
salary supplemented by the New Sun
burv Association. It pays 8150 to
wards the support of Brother Atkinson
at Brunswick. What it does for broth
er Corn, I am not informed. And yet
that Board received from Georgia last
year 85,820.52, and in the. ten years
preceding the Convention a£> Milledge
ville, 857,518.13. Ido not think Geor
gia can afford to be so liberal in sus
taining that Board,"while her own des
titution is so much neglected.
3. Another objection to the plan
upon which the Macon Committee is
organized is, that, though it may ap
point an agent and use other means
tor raising funds for Missions, it has
no power to appoint Miaiionarie*. All it
can do is to recommend brethren to the
Home Mission Board for appointment.
I confess that as a Georgian, I feel hu
miliated at the thought that we are
not considered competent to appoint
our own missionaries, and, as a Bap
tist, I must enter my protest against
the episcopal authority thus assumed
for the Board at Marion. Of what
more value is a commission from that
Board than from the Committee at
Macon ? We had hoped to have a
State Board untrammelled, especially
as Alabama had appointed such it
Board without this objectionable re
striction. If any other State Board
bos to apply to that Board to commis
sion its missionaries, the fact is un
known to the writer. Let me not. be
understood as charging that Board
with any assumption ol episcopal au
thority. But that the report, organi
zing our committee of Missions at Ma
con, does invest with such authority
cannot be fairly questioned.
If the committee shall succeed in
accomplishing much for the cause of
Home Missions in Georgia, it wil. be
more than I expect. They will have
to work with their hands tied, and un
der embarrassments which will greatly
hinder their progress. They deserved
credit for having acted wisely in the
selection of their general agent. No
man in the State is more deserving of
the respect and confidence of our peo
ple than C. M. Irvin. If any man can
succeed under the circumstances, he
will do it. J. H. Campbell.

Kind Molds uud Us Fditoi—Brothers. Boykin.
We have always loved the cause of
Kind Words, and brother Boykin.
Instead of 145,000 subscribers there
should be 245,000. And now, that, by
the authority of the Board and the
Southern Baptist Convention, we are
reasonably sure to have the paper and
broth er Boykin go on together, for the
next five years, we feelassuiedthatall of
us will love him and the paper more
than ever.
We are of the opinion that the pres
ent arrangement is a wise one. It is
an easy way to remove that part of the
i debt on the Home Board, so that when
all its debts are lifted, that arm of the
Southern Baptist Convention will once
more be as efficient as before its em
barrassments.
But we are inviting our readers
attention to brother Boykin and his
(our) Kind Words.
Brother Boykin is a splendid editor,
for children. He is fitted for it by a
long experience in the work, and pos
sesses the simplicity of a good child
in his love for the cause, and of the
little ones welfare.
Wo endorse all the Board has done,
and commend the sanction of it by the
Convention at Richmond.
Architecture.— The model work
on American architecture is Atwood’s
Modern American Homesteads, recent
ly published by A. J. Bicknell & Cos.,
No. 27 Warren street, New York.
The work is beautifully illustrated, and
full of accurate designs. It is a work
no one can do without, who desires to
erect a residence in harmony with the
laws of modern architecture. We com
mend this valuable work to our read
ers as a standard work on American
architecture.
We have received the printed pro
ceedings of the twenty-first session of
the Southern Baptist Convention, held
with the First Baptist Church in Rich
mond, Virginia, May 11-15.

OBITUARIES.
FITZPATRICK.—On Sunday, May 15, 1876. at
lier liomc inMorgan county, Georgia, Mrs. Louisa
Fitzpatrick, wife of Mr. Zeno Fitzpatrick, in the
fifty-ninth year of her age. Diseased lunge had
given her trouble for eomo vearß, until consump
tion began, and by rapid advances Boon destroy
ed her health, and Blie was gathered with the
dead.
In early life she was baptized into Providence
church, jasper county. Georgia, of which bhe
was a member at the time of her death. Her
friends and family will misß her. The vacant
chairjat the accustomed place, cannot be occu
pied again. Slio rests from her sufferings here,
and our loss is her eternal gain. * * *
MoDONALI). —Sister Mary McDonald, wife of
Bro. Wm. McDonald, was born October 30,1805,
married March 20, 1823, baptized June 5, 1870,
died March 21st, 1876, leaving an aged husband,
six children, a number of grand children, a large
circle of relations and friends, and South New
port Baptist church, to mourn her departure.
To her the change had no terror, because Bhe
trusted in Jesus. It was n welcome deliverance
rather from long and hdiov.-. suffering. Her
religion was not what is called sensational, but
consistent and sincere. Her name, us well as
that of her husband, was on the subscription
for the support of her pastor. She even provided
for the payment, after her death, of the monthly
installments of her subscription, and for other
good objects, by leaving a sum of money with
instructions that it be so applied. Those who
knew her best feel boreaved by her removal, ad
monished bv her living and dying oxample. and
hope for a leyful reunion with her in our Fath
er’s house above. D. G. D.

Hair Dy< s.
A great deal of ingenuity has been expended
in searching for seme chemical preparation that
would impart a natural color without injury to
the hair or health. Vast quantities of Sugar of
Lead and Sulphur have been used of late years
for a dye. This is the composition of nine out
of ten of the hair colorings so loudly adver ised.
We feel it our dntv to guard the public against
the noxious compounds, and at the same time it
affords ns pleasure to recommend the elegant
preparation of Dr. Tutt. Wo know it to bo
naimlcsß, as we have examined the analysis
made by the most noted chemist in Europe. It
acts instantaneously and is sonatmal that it can
not be detected by the closest observer. It is
certainly a wonderful triumph of chemistry.
If the functions of Ihe liver are in anyway
disordeied, the whole lodv, and not only the
body, but the mind, sympathizes with the dis
turbed organ. Bilious complaints are moie com
mon than other diseases; and to remove the bile,
as well as to regulate the liver, you only have to
take Simmons'l iver regulator, which willim
part new life and vigor to the whole system.

Liver and Blood Diseases
By B. V. Pierce, M. D., Authorof “The People’s
Common Sense Medical Adviser.’ -
A healthy liver secretes each Jday about two
and a half pounds of bile, which contains a great
amount of waste material taken from the blood.
When the liver becomes torpid or congested, it
fails to eliminate this vast amount of noxious
substance, which, therefore, remains to poison
the blood, and be conveyed to every part of the
system. What must be the condition of the
blood when it U receiving and retaining each day
two and a half pounds of poison ? Nature tries
to work off this poison through other channels
and organs—the kidneys, lungs, skin, etc., but
these organs become overtaxed in performing
this labor in addition to their natural functions,
and cannot long withs and tho pressure, but be
come variously diseased.
The brain, which is the great electrical center
of all vitality, is unduly stimulated by the un
healthy blood which passes to it from the heart,
and it fails to perform its office healthily.
Hence the symptoms of bile poisoning, which
arc dullness, headache, incapacity to keep the
mind on any subject, impairment of memory,
dizzy, sleepy, or nervous feelings, gloomy fore
bodings, and irritability of temper. The blood
itself being diseased, as it forms the sweat upon
the surface of the sKin, it is so irritating and
poisonous that it produces discolored brown
spots, pimples, blotches, and other eruptions,
sores, bolls, carbuncles and scrofulous tumors.
The stomach, bowels, and other organs, cannot
escape becoming affected, sooner or later, and we
have, as the result, costiveness, piles, dropsy,
dyspepsia, diarrhoea. Other symptoms are com
mon. as bitter or bad taste in mouth, internal
heat, palpitation, teasing cough, unsteady ap
petite, choking sensation in throat, bloating
of st< mach, pam in sides or about shoulders or
hack, coldness of extremities, etc., etc. Only a
few of the above symptoms are likely to be pres
ent in any case at one time- The liver being the
great depurating, or blood -cleansing organ of
the system, set this great 1 ‘housekeeper of our
health” at work, and the foul corruptions which
gender in the blood, and rot out, as it were, the
machinery of life, are gradually expelled from
the system. For this purpose. Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery, with very small doses
daily of Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Purgative Pelletts,
is pre-eminenlly the articles needed. They cure
every kind of lmmor. from the worst scrofula to
the common pimple, blotch, or eruption. Great
oating ulcers kindly heal under their mighty
curative influence. Virulent blood poisons that
lurk in the system are by them robbed of their
terrors, and by their persevering and somewhat
protracted use the most tainted systems may
lie completely renovated and bitilt up anew. En
larged glands, tumors, and swellings, dwindle
away and disappear under the influence of these
great resolvents.
The Supply Depot of the Body,
The stomach is the grand supply depot of the
body, upon which it draws for all the elements
needed in the composition of bone, muscle,
brain and blood. The liver is an important aux
iliary of this mighty organ, and the two are most
intimately connected. Nothing so certainly en
sures the harmonious action of these viscera,
and so completely removes the disorders which
simultaneously affect both, as Hosietter’s Stom
ach liitters, tho most popular American specific
for all complaints to which the stomach, liver
and bowels are subject, and the foremost tonic
on this side of the Atlantic. Indigestion, cos
tiveness, inactivity and congestion of the liver,
poverty of the blood, debility of the bladder and
kidneys, and many other ailments produced by
or causing n kness, ace entirely removed by its
use.
No or.e should travel without a bottle of
Tarrant's Seltzer Aperient.
Uhangoß of Temperature, irregularity of rest
and oating, and exposure to draughts, aro great
and active agents in deranging the secretiouß of
the body. A done of this aperient will prevent
the evils resulting from such causes, and save
many inconveniences and dangers.
