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 its p'acardsand entrances: “Gambling If AD 13 ATTRACTIVK TO ADD CLASSES ’* 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 be gloriously independent. J. L. XL Memorial ExcroiiM. On Sunday. October 14th, interesting exer *ii*s wore held in tho Baptist church at Stone Mountain, commemorating tho worth of tlioir Seceasid | a -tor, Itev. J. M. Stillwell.

After the singing of “ Beautiful Homo." bv the large congregation in attendance, Rev. Mr. Wood thou load in prayer, and the cou fr*Stion sang “ Tho Sweet By un <ly.” The following, offered by W. G, Wlhdbv, was adoytod: "The old, old fashion! Tho fashion that aame in with our first garmouts, and will last waehangcd until onr race has ruu il s eou ae, and the wide firmament is rolled up like a scroll. The old, old fashion—Death! O, th 11k God, for all who see it. for that oloor fashion yet—of Immortality. And took upou us, augols of Venng children, with regards not quiteostranged when the swift river bears Us on to the ocoan.” meet not to commemorate the dmfA of another J. M, Stillwell, hut onlv an event in his 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 ing the Hong of tho redeemed. 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 furnished tho family of brother Stillwell, and sent to The Christian Index, and to tho De- Kalb County yews, for publication. Touching tribute! to the deceased were paid by ltev. E. L. Wood and L. A. Birmans. Tlio congregation sang “Over There,” prayer was offered by ,T. It.

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 day school to make an expression of their evm patliy and sorrow with rofetenoe to tho death of Julia MsWhorter, ask have to report as follows: Whkhras. It has pleased our Father iu Heaven to remove our school-mato aud loved friend front tier earthly home. Resolved, First. That the tribute above bo of fered ass token of our regard for her memory. Second, That we imploie God to enable ue bv tho example given in tho life of Julia, to live closer to our Saviour, making His will ottr own. Third, That a oopy of the foregoing be sent I THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST. to The Index, and Kind Words, tor publication, and a copy be tendered to the bereaved familv, as an evidence of our Christian sympathy.

JOHNSON—Died, in Acwortn, on the 15th Inst., of inllamation of the brain Gordon £!- worth, infant son of Mr. and Mrs, J. N. John son, aged seven months and nineteen days. 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 was, from a world of sore trials, afflictioujtn.l pain to that bright and better world, autrnow gentle angels are hovering around, and he is happy in tho arms of Jesus. Rest on, sweet babe! A Fhiend. 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. Wm. H. Coofeu, I!. F. Wilder, Committee. Adopted in conference, October 14th, 1877. Wm. H.
