‘‘LIKE A LITTLE CHILD." Mr child is lying on my knee ; The signs of heaven she reads ; Sly face is all the heaven she sees, Is all the heaven she needs. And she is well, yea, bathed in bliss, If heaven is in my face; Behind it all is tenderness, And truthfulness, and grace. I mean her veil so earnestly, Unchanged in changing mood; My life would go without a sigh To bring her something good. I also am a child, and I Am ignorant and weak; I gaze upon the starry sky, And then, I must not speak. For all behind the starry sky, Behind the world so broad, Behind men’s hearts and souls doth lie The Infinite of God. Aye, true to her, though troubled sore, I cannot choose but be: Thou who art peace forevermore, Art vr; v true to me. . low and sinful, bring ore love where need is rife; u knowest what an awful thing It is to be a life. Hast thou not wisdom to enwrap My waywardness about, In doubting safety on the lap. Of love that knows no doubt ? Lo ! Lord. I sit in Thy wide space, Mv child up n my knee ; Shelooketh up iuto my face, And I look up to Thee. For the Index and Baptist.] Ts the Chart-hes of the Central Association. Brethren — I make known to you the action taken by the Association, at Madison: “We continue brother 8. Boykin as volun tary Missionary Agent, to receive and collect all moneys raised for Missions, and turn over the same'to the State Board ; and that he sub mit a statement oi his operations in this work to the next session of this body.” You will please observe that the Association appoints me “to receive and collect all moneys raised for Mis sions” in our Association. This sim ply means that you remit the money to me, that I may turn it over to the objects for which it was intended, and be, thus, able to report to the Associa tion all the donations and contribu tions of our churches, so that we may know exactly what our Association has done for the mission work. Hcselted, That we urge upon the pastors and churches quarterly collections, beginning in October next, and that the reports thereof be made t* brother S. Boykin, Macon. You see, frm this, that the churches are ut gently requested to take up col lections for missions, quarterly; the first to be taken in October, the sec ond in January, the third in April, and the fourth in July. How many have acceded to this request I know not. I can report only what has been turned over to me thus far: 'Ksse; tTWkfirst church, at Mafon — September 8. For Domestic Missions (State) $18.66 'October 8. For Domestic Missions (State).... 16.66 October 8. For State Mission Board,. 25.00 $58.32 From the Madison church— Oct. 18. For Foreign Missions $ 7.50 Oct. 18. For Home Missions 7.50 Oct. 18. For Aged Indigent Ministers 550 Oct. 18. For State Mission 80ard.... 1&.50 $40.00 From Madison Baptist Sunday school— Oct 18. For Aged Indigent Minis!ers.s 5.00 $45.00 Total amount received $103.32 All of this has been forwarded to its destination without abatement. I now request every church in our Association to collect and forward mission funds to me, designating the objects for which the money was con tributed. It is within my knowledge that some, if not most, of the churches in the Central Association desire to support a missionary within our bounds. The plan is an excellent one, and I am authorized to say that as soon as our churches, by their contributions, man ifest their determination to support one, the Secretary of our State Mis sion Board will appoint a good one, and put him in the field. Brethren, Foreign Missions, Indian Missions, State Missions and State Sunday-school work, are all appealing to you for support. Let me urge you to contribute l.berally to all these ob jects. I am sorry to say that, from the rst of May, last, to the ioth of October, Georgia contributed for For eign Missions $764.86 only. Virginia, Kentucky and South Carolina, each, far surpassed Georgia. Do let me hear from you soon, and my appeal is especially to the pastors, who are requested to lay this matter before their churches. S. Boykin, Macen, Ga., Oct. 25, 1877. Agent. Fr the Index ana Bsptl*i.| THE KBEMZFR ASSOCIATION. This body has just held a pleasant and harmonious session at Dublin, Laurens county. The former of fleers, G. R. McCall, Moderator, W. D. Horne, Clerk, and M. L. Birch, Treasurer, were unanimously re-elect ed bv acclamation. Brother McCall dispatched the business with more than usual prompt ness, and with satisfaction to all Brother C. M. Irwin represented the Foreign Mission Board, and made two of the best speeches the writer ever heard from him. The Sunday school Evangelist represented the State Mission Boatd and his own THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST. work, and was cordially received and liberally treated. This Association will heartily co operate with the State work, and its beloved Corresponding Secretary, and passed resolutions to this effect. The number of baptisms reported was about the same as last year, though there was a falling off in con tributions. The reports on Missions, Sunday-schools, Education und Tem perance were more than usually able and suggestive, hut owing to a short ness of the time, that on Missions was the only one fully discussed. Your correspondent heard but one sermon on Sabbath—the Missionary sermon by brother G. R. McCall —which was a most masterly effort. It was highly commended by all who heard it. Brother P. W. Edge, one of the most promising young preachers in the State, delivered at night a sermon on Grace, which a competent critic as sured me could not be surpassed by bishop Pierce. Other brethren preached most acceptably, and with good results. The good people of Dublin were lavish in their efforts to entertain their guests, and seemed to spare no pains to make them feel comlortable. Their worthy and highly esteemed pastor, brother W. S. Ramsay, is in full sym pathy with all our denominational en terprises, and has a noble band of brethren and sisters to co-operate with him. The writer was the guest of brother J. B. Wolfe, one of the cleverest men anywhere, who, with his kind, Chris tian wife, did all that could be done for the comfort and convenience of all who lodged with them. T. C. B. P. S.—Among the visitors was our venerable brother D. G. Daniell. For the Index and Baptist.] A HAPPY PASTOR AND \T!FF. Yesterday we were to begin keeping house, and began to make our arrange ments accordingly, but a committee of the ladies asked us to leave the matter of preparation to them. We consented. Yesterday evening we were informed that we could move, and so we came to our new home, to find that we had a house full of company, who were mak ing themselves at home, and who in vited us to do likewise. We first went iuto our room, and there we found every thing in “at'ple-pie” order. Soon we were invited into another apartment, where there were smiling faces of many happy brethren, sisters and friends, and bed-clothes made by the sisters, furniture, glass and china-ware,, knives and forks, table-cjoths, napkins, towels, tables, damps, catsup, pickles, prti-- 'serves, Sour, syrup, mottoes 'beautp fully worked and handsoinly framed, flowers—well, almost everything need ed in keeping house. Elsewhere there was wood, chickens and butter. Deacon Blanton arose and told us, in a very rice way, about the good days when God’s people had all things in common, and that that same spirit had united us together as a Church and as pastor and people. That the collection of necessaries and ornaments before us was but an illustration of the desire of the members of the church to share all things with pastor and his helpmeet. Well, we can’t tell all the good things he said, nor how happy it made us feel. The pastor responded to his remarks as best he could, and then we all set down for an hour or so of su preme enjoyment. The evening passed happily away, and left us in a comfort able home, with contented hearts, filled with gratitude to the good peo ple among whom a loving Father had cast our lots. R. T. Hanes. Dalton, Georgia, Nov. 1, 1877. jfeorncr. SHALL MINNIE GO TO THE DANCING PARTY? “ Good morning, Aunt Rebecca, you are just in time, and a kind Providence must have sent you, for lam in a di lemma, and want some kind Christian friend to tell me what to do.’’ “Well, child, what is it? if I can do you any good I am at your service,” said Aunt Rebecca, laying off her bon net and taking the easy chair offered by her niece, Alice. “ I suppose you know, Aunt, there is to lie a party next week at Mrs. Crof ton’s for the girls, a real dancing party, and Minnie is invited and anxious to go. I have not given my cousent yet, for the ticket just came last evening, and we have not had much time to talk about it. But wbat. I wish to know, Aunt, is whether it will be wrong to let Minnie go. Mrs. Linn bas been here and says she intends for her girls to go, and you know she is one of our best members, and Lucy, her eldest, is a member also. Mrs. Liun says ‘there’s no harm in dancing at all, it is quite an innocent amusement; says it is rather beneficial to girls; it is good exercise and makes them so graceful.’ She is going to commence right away to make prepa rations. She started for the dress makcr’g this morning.” “What does Harvey say, Alice? Has he no opinion on the subject ?” “0, yes, he has his views ; he thinks it wrong lor members of the church to attend dancing parties, he is n.-t so certain about outsiders, but he is so indulgent to Minnie he could not bear to refuse her, so be just throws the whole responsibility on me, and says I can do as I like.” “And so you are left to decide the matter alone ?” “Yes, Aunt, and it is a trying fix to be in. Minnie will be so disappointed if she don’t go; I know she has set her heart upon it although she does not say much, anc. yet my honest con victions are that it is wrong. I could not get her ready with that degree of pleasure that I would if it were any thing ulse but a dancing party. Tell me exactly your opinion, Aunt Rebec ca ; is it wrong in the sight of God to let our children attend dancing parties. I am satisfied it is a great sin for mem* bers of the church to dance, but if our children are not members, I don’t know, Aunt, whether it is kind or right to deny them this pleasure, particularly if there is no harm in it.” “Well, Alice, it is most assuredly wrong to let our children attend these dancing parties, and if you will just listen to me awhile, I will try to con vince you of the truth of what I assert. In the first place, dancing is not a harmless amusement—it is a most hurtful, injurious one. Talk of its being “perfectly innocent”—why, my dear child, what a grievous mistake; I shudder for Mrs. Linn; don’t let her thoughtless words have any weight with you ; there is nothing young peo pie can engage more exciting, more fascinating, consequently more ruinous to the mind, the morals and the health than dancing. Whatever is hurtful to us must certainly be a sin. ‘Train up a child in the way it should go and when it is old it will not depart from it.’ Heed that admonition, and as you value Minnie’s happiness, beware how you let her take the first step in a course that will eventually bring sorrow and remorse to you both. If you in dulge her this time, there will be no good reason why you should not do it again as opportunity offers. If the taste for dancing grows upon her, as is too often the case, she will tire of home, will look with disgust upon a pleasant evening at the fireside, and never be happy unless she can be in a constant whirlpool of excitement. Minnie’s temperament is very ardent, you know ; I have heard you say that whatever she undertook she entered into with her whole heart and soul; rest assured, then, if she ever imbibes a taste for dancing, there will be no controlling it. My advice to you, Alice, is not to let Minnie go; if it is wrong for you to attend such places, it cntainly is for your children. Make it a rule, it will save you a great deal of trouble, never to allow your children to attend any place from which you and Harvey are excluded. The Word of God excludes you from these things; you cannot enter into them, Uof enjoy them with out conforming ti ilje world, and ‘if any matvßve sa’ys John} ‘the love of the Father is not in him.’ It is true, Minnie is no member of the church, but that fact does not lessen her obligation to God and her parents ; she should respect your principles. The command, ‘ Honor thy father and thy mother,’ is as binding upon chil dren out of the church as in it, and they should be taught that to persist in wishing to do anything contrary to their parents desires or commands, is a gross violation of the same. We are responsible to God, Alice, for the man ner in which we discharge our duties as parents, and those duties we cannot delegate to another. When you are satisfied you are right in regard to any course of action, be firm and go ahead. A child’s tears, or a day or two of wayward pouting, should have no effect in moving you. The disappointment to Minnie for the loss of one night’s pleasure is small compared to the in jury that might result from her at tendance. Check the thing in its bud, come out fearlessly before your chil dren and say dancing is wrong, it is a sin, you cannot indulge iu it, and then never after give way nor recede from your position. It may look a little hard to them at first, but time will show them you are right; provide other sources of amusement for them, and ag they grow older and learn your reasons for your course they will cease to care for it, and, finally, be glad you were so firm. You ask me how it is hurtful, Alice. In many ways. A distinguished physican has said, that upon inquiry it was found that; a majority of the un happy females in a certain ‘House of Reformation, commenced their course in the ball-room. 1 * One of those modern dances has been styled by a late writer on the subject, ‘The Dance of Death.’ The constant dissipation wrecks a woman’s health—late hours and danc ing go together—thin dressing, thin slippers, over-Leating, sudden cooling, loss of sleep and nervous excitement, have laid many a once blooming girl in an early grave. The associations con nected with such a life, the loose com pany one comes in contact with, will just as certainly degrade her morals as water will run down hill. As the poet hath truthfully said : ‘Vies is a monster of such hideous mein, That te be hated needs but ta be seen ; But seen too oftjfamiliar with its face, We first endure, then pity, then embrace.’ “Just so with a young girl, at firs f her purity of soul is shocked arid it is easy to blush, but Alice, when the ball room haßdone its work she has learned to love what first she hated. A dancer, Alice, never has much mind, the giddy, exciting thoughts that chase each other in her brain, abutting out every thing reasonable or serious eventually so weaken all her mental faculties that her mind becomes a blank. She bardly has an idea outside of the’ball-room. What is such a woman fit for, Alice ? and what sensible man wishes such an one for a wife ? O, the misery, the mortification, to be the mother of such a daughter. May God help you Alice, to look upon this matter in the light of eternity, and then decide as you will wish you had done, when you find your self nearing that boundless shore.” “Aunt Rebecca, I thank you for your counsel, and bless God for directing you here to-day. You are right, and I have determined that Minnie shall not go to the dancing party.” Aunt Edith. THE STOCKING-BASKET. Cosily throned in her cushioned chair, A mother reclined from toil and care, Except the darning of a stocking, And her chair’s perpetual rocking. I thought I had somewhere seeu it styled The plague of life, such a basket piled With tiresome, everlasting stitching, With work so very unbewitching ; And as ehe broke the thread asunder, Weaving in and out, over and under, I wished tne rents in human life Could be mended with as little strife. She took iu her hand a tiny thing, All striped wirii a white and scarlet ring, And smiled rfswjllo thought of the silken hair And laughing syes of her darling fair ; Of the rosy lips and dainty hands. The pleading cries and the loud demands, She sighod as she thought of the world uutried, And up and 4own her needle plied, She knew it said, Oh ! blessed are such ! And stroked her work with a tender touch, Softly folded find laid it away, As the iu slumber lay. But on the next a tear-drop lingers; The mother wrought with trembling fingers, And Badly bowed with an anxious faoe, Appealing On High for strength and grace To guide the steps of her wayward eon, To bless and protect hor erring one, Nor suffer the wand’ring feet to roam Forth from the love of hit early home. To shield him from the glittering net The tempter with costly jewels had set; To save him from the sparkling bowl, And all the dangers that sear the soul. As on the third her looks were bent, The faoe wore a smile of sweet content, As the fair-tfairod girl whoso gentle ways Were extolled by all with voice of praise ; For her the 6Unhine ever glowed. And from her lips rare music flowed; With graceful carriage and modest mien, She moved through life liko a fair young qneon. The mother said, with a fervent prayer, May Hoaven shield her from harm and car#. From cruel want, and the stings that smart, From the bruises of a blighted heart. The next wore for those whoso feet had trod For many summers the earth’s green sod ; And the BtormH of many winters felt, Iu joys had smiled, and iu sorrows kuelt, No cloudlw dark, but the glimmering liu# Of the sunrise evor straggled through ; No gloom s i deep, faith could not brighten ; No toil so hard, love could not lighten. The last for ono who was passing down To her narrow home with a silver crown Of wondrous luster, that seemed to shed A light of glory round her head. Peacefully sinking to the quiet rest, Awaiting those of the truly blest; For her she plead the right to share All tender aid aud watchful care. And thus,the stockings all were mended ; With oach'sßtitch a thought was blended; With ev’ry thread for future wear The wesbrfir-Jn oi a silent prayer. ss=jbe ; -fr * ■ ■ -y .
