THE FAIR AT TUMHASTILLK, GEORGIA.
With tho exception of one very rainy
day this exposition was quite a success.
It makes us proud of Southern Geor
gia to attend this fair. Dr. Tucker, in
his address on the last day, said it
made him more and more anxious to
live and dio in Dixie. Disinterested
Sarties say that, in agricultural pro
ucts, it surpassed tho State Fair.
The Grange displays woro splendid.
And when the fair was over, some of
tho Grangers did a splendid thing : I
saw pastor Bennett’s piazza erowded
with potatoes, corn, oats, cashaws,
pumpkins, sugar cane, etc., a timely
present from the Quitman Grange
Those who have known brother Ben
nett longest love him best. Another
Grange kindly remembered a poor sick
brother in Thomasyille, and supplied
him liberally.
Thk I ndex will join me, and all good
men, inaprotestagainstthe introduction
of “ wheels of fortune,” chicken fights,
etc., into the fair. The descensus Avemi
is easy enough without this conspic
uous aid from tho Thotnasville Fair As
sociation. If this thing is done again,
I move that it write conspicuously over

Chancellor Tucker’s lectureonThurs
day night was—just like everything of
the kind lie does. His subject was
“ The Dignity of Labor." When he
described so warmly the fair Rebecas
drawing water so promptly and kindly
for Abraham’s ten camels, I wanted to
tell him there are plenty of
down here, “damsels fair to look upon,"
too, who can, and do, draw water for
their father’s mules and horses, when
ever it is necessary. If our men were
as uniformly,energetic and industrious
as our women, our Dixie would soou

v*.’ Ho has gouo up higher to meet his reward.
While we weep over the greatness of our loss in
his removal from our midtit, we can, in view of
his gain, rejoicingly exclaim, “Hll*lnj&h, thine
tire glory.” ‘ Oh, cold, cold, rigid, dreadful
death, eet up thine altar here and drees it with
euoh terrors as thou bast at thy command, for
thie in tby dominion. But of the loved, revered
and honored bead, ‘now lying under the nod of
yonder graveyard,* thou canst not turn one hair
to tby dread purpose, or make one feature
odione. It Is not that the hand is heavy, and
will fall down wben released ; it is not that the
heart and pulse are still; but that the hand was
open, goncrous and true ; the heart brave, warm
and tender ; and the pulse, a man’s. Strike,
Shadow, strike ! And see his good deeds spr.iig
lng from the wound to sow the world with life
immortal.” Let us remember the virtues of
our departed brother, and imitate him iu prac
ticing them ! If he bad a passion, it was a pas
sion (to serve the Lord. He consecrated his
abilities to the services of his Master, and used
his talents well. “So cheerful in spirit and
guiloleas of affectation, as true practical Chris
tianity is,” you could “read moro of the New
Testament in his fresh, frank face in five
minutes" than in hours of listening to “auathe
matising sermons;” you heard more of the
Sacred Book in his cordial voice that had nothing
to say of its owner, than in days spent in hearing
elaborate discourses. The Christian soldier lias
laid aside liis weapons and armor ; the faithful
servant has boon released from earthly service,
“The paittß of death are past,
Labor and sorrow cease,
And Ufo's long labor closed at last,
His soul is found in peace.
Soldier of Christ! well done
Braise be thy new employ
And while eternal ages run
Rest in tliy Saviour’s joy.”
“In the way of righteousness is life ; and in
tho pathway thereof there Is no death.”
“Light is sown for the righteous and giadneES
for the upright in heart,”
“Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and
afterwards receive me into glory.”
‘ ‘Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death
of His saints.”
"Having a dosiro to depart and he with Christ
which is far bettor.”
To testify our affection for onr departed
brother, wo hereby
Heiotvcd, That In the death of Itov. J. M.
Stillwell, the church has lost ono of its most
useful ministers and consistent members; Chris
tianity a bright and shining light ; society one
of its strongest pillars ; and tho Baptist Church
at Store Mountain a pa si oreadeared to them by
bis long and faithful expounding of the gospel
of ChriHt, and liiH Christian example and teach
ing*
llesoloed That wo will ends vor, by divine as
sistance, to be more consecrated to tho service
of God, that our faith may bo made stronger,
so that, like our brother, at the appointed timo
for our departure, we can, with all joyfulnoss,
say, “to be with ChriHt, which is far hotter.”
Resolved, That we tender our warmest sympa
thies to the widow and children of our departed
brother, humbly asking God to lovingly c are for
and protect the boreaved ones, until, “Beyond
the sunset's radiant glow,” "ou that, beautiful
shore, where the bright angels stay,” they he
reunited with their loved one, "In the Sweet By
and By,” “safe in tho arms of Josus, safe ou
His gentle breast,” can unite with him in sing

Resolved, That a page ou the minutes of our
oliurch be inscribed to the memory of the faith
ful pastor, the devoted Christian and worthy
citizen, and that a tablet of marble, bearing
suitable inscriptions, be erected to liis memory.
Resolved, That a copy of tlioso resohr ions lie

Tribute of Respect.
TO THE MEMORY OF .JULUI*. MoWHOIITEK.
BY M'.NFH!I,D HUnDaY SCHOOL.
September 30tli was the saddest day tliat over
dawned on oar Sunday-school at Penfield. Six
years our Heavenly Father has permitted us to
meet again and again, in unbroken numbers, at
the dear old chapel. Faces have changed, new
ones have < ome, old ones have entered various
paths in tho wide world, but. to-day was the
lirst time we met after God had appeared iu our
midst to claim one of His own.
Sadly, tearfully we entered tho chapel and
gathered around the organ The very air seemed
tilled with our sorrow. Tho hushed greeting,
warmer pressure of the hand, and sympathetic
cadence of tho voice, all whispered how much
wo missed Joi.ia Mott uouticii. Yes, strange
the thought 1 and, though we repeat it ver
again, our hearts leftist to realize the fact that
never more, on earth, her svreet presence will
gladden our gatherings.
'Twaa sad for tho school, but the saddest of
all was our class—her class. Every heart quiv
ered with pain as we drew near together, and
each boy and girl felt more acutely the dread re
ality—our circle had lost forever ouo of its
brightest ornaments.
Since her earliest childhood, she was one of
our school. Quietly, modestly, unassumingly,
she moved among us, t ondly loved by her friends,
adored by her household.
God's ways are inscmtahlo. Hearts lowered
down by deepest grief fail to see the mission of
this fair, young life—just, seventeen, in her rare
beauty—to he homo aw ay by angels ! But, in
the years that are coming, we. perhaps, will rec
ognize tho tender love of our Father, oven for
us, in this decree of His will. Remembering
her mother, father, brothers, and ourselves, tho
prayer risoa— •
‘ Thou, O, most compassionate!
Who did'st stoop to our estate,
Drinking of tho cup wo drain,
Treading in our path of pain—
Through the doubt and mystery,
Grant to us, Thy stops to see.
And ti e grace to draw from thence
Larger hope and confidence."
When wo think now of our school mate, our
class-mate, our scholar, it is with joy unspeaka
ble. Wo know, while we must hear the Cross,
she wears a crown in "radioucy of glory, in bliss
beyond compare."
Few of God’s children are so blest in their
dying moments as Julia. With composure most
marvelous she acknowledged the presence of
death, with perfect trust in her Saviour, she loft
ne for the better home beyond. Her first prayer
was sublimely eloqiunt iu its < arnest d< maud for
Jesus’ pardon and presence. Nothing could
have been more touching than tier affectionate,
loving farewell to each member of her family.
For lion rs her very soul was lilted tip in suppli
cation for the dear ones at home, and friends,
too, beyond the home-circle, until her compre
hensive love included tho w orld in its vastne**
Hlio p>aved "tliat all might meet her in that
hotter land, "where moth and rust .to not cor
rupt, nor thieves break through and steal." in
tliat "honso uot mado with hands, eternal in the
Heavens,"
Her death was a poem beyond words ! More
eloquent than the grandest stmins of oratory !
VI e fu't the eyes so fast closing to mortal vis
ion had already pierced beyond the vail.
‘‘Jerusalem the golden,
All jubilant with song,
Bright with many an angel
Aud all the martyr throug—"
was hors now, forever: and henceforth, among
seraphic millions, her voice would join the olio
rus "Blessing, aud honor, and gloty, and
power bo unto Him that sitteth noon the throne,
and unto the Lamb forever and ever."
Tho committee appointed bv (liePenfield Sun

patliy and sorrow with rofetenoe to tho death of
Julia MsWhorter, ask have to report as follows:

Gordon was a tweet and promising little babe,
and, no doubt, many times inspired a fond
mothei and kind father with many bright hopes,
but death, with unerring darts, came quick
ly and selected tho shining mark ! It is sail, iu
deed, for a fond mother and devoted father to
lose a child, but their loss is tho child's eternal
gain. Grieve not for littlo Gordon, gentle
mother ; lie is gone before he knew wbat m

WALKER—We, the Committee to whom was
entrusted tho mournful task of presenting suit
able resolutions to tho church with reference to
the death of sister Walker, which occurred in
tho city of Atlanta, on the 2d of September,
1377, do make tho following report:
WiiEUEAS, tho I.oid, in Km inscrutable wis
dom, has seen lit to remove from tho momjiei
ship of our churoli to the church triumphant,
our beloved sister, O. E. Walker ; there foie he it
1. Resolved, That whilo we feel our church has
sustained a loss in her death, which seems to us
irrepai able, we. nevertheless, how submissively
to the will of Him who doeth all things well,
praying tho Lord of tho vineyard that He will,
m His own way raise up somo one to take her
place.
2. That, us a church, wo all can and do bear
hereby a iniilcd testimony to the excellence and
beauty of her Christian character, and to hci
great worth in all tho walks of lire.
Asa wife she was to her husband truly “a gift
from the Lord." Asa mother, though ilrm and
strict iu her discipline of her children, she was
nevertheless utfoctinnate and self-sacrifleuijj.
Fur the qualities of a <jood neighbor she oX
never bti a*irpasscd,
As ar * ViWi to '.ne ,<vor we do bear etleemT
testimony to tier unwearied attention to tino*
aud to her many ivctH of kindness done in our
midst. Asa Chiistian, her piety was of a su
perior order. She icemen to apprehend the
gruat truth that she "had been bought with a
ntioe,” and that, therefore, she ought "not to
live to herself, but to Him who diod for her and
rose again.
3. That it is with feelings of gvatiiude and joy
that wo learn that our sister was able to bear
with patience and Christian resignation all the.
suffering or her last illness, and, that having
gloriilod God iu her life, she was able to glorify
Him in doalli—passing away, not only in peace,
but triumphantly.
-1. That a copy of these resolutions be spread
upon oui church book sml that our Clerk he
requested lo tender a copy to the family of our
sister, as an humble evidence of our heart-feit
Christian sympathy. Also that a copy be scat
to Tub Christian Index, with the ri quest that
tho same be published.
