8 Florida Department. <■ OHAUDOIN, OorrHpoodlag Editor aid Agent Office at Cloaveland A Bonn' Furniture dlore, Went Bay 'traet JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA. MRS. 0. A. GOVE. “0 death, where la thy sting." We have just received, from her husband, Rev. 8. F. Gove, the information that his wife died July 37th, at her home at Long* wood. In January last we first met this sister, then quite an invalid, but we all honed for her recovery. A couple of weeks before her death we saw her again, much weaker, and we felt, and she seemed to think so too, that her days were nearly numbered, her rest close at hand. Memory will always recall clearly to mind the meek, gentle, quiet, unmurmuring suf serer. Sister Gove was an intelligent, re fined woman, a loving, devoted wife and tender mother, and for years bad been a devoted lover of the Savior. Seldom does one bear an affliction of fourteen months with more patient endurance. Her last worda were, “I am going. I want you to meet me in heaven.” A daughter died triumphantly only a year or so before and the last time we saw and spoke to sister Gove, we were rejoicing over her dear boy’s application for membership in the church. The Lord grant them all grace to comply with a dear mother's last request: to meet her in heaven. Sister Gove was in her fortieth year, and was the daughter of Levy Si > gleton, of Jones county, Georgia. "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from henceforth, yea, saitb the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors, and their works do follow them." With especial fitness we can say of sister Gove,— “Sister, thou west mild and lovely, Gentle as the summer breeze; Pleasant as the air of evening When it floats among the trees.” TEMPERANCE MEETING, ETC. Diab Bbothkb Chaudoin : We had a temperance meeting at Ft. McCoy on Sat urday the 16th inst, at which there was more enthusiasm than at any meeting of the kind I ever attended. Notwithstanding it was a very hot day, the house could not accommodate the crowd. About one hundred and twenty-five signed the pledge in about one hour’s time. There is a strong temperance society at Spring Hill, Marion county, about ten miles from Ft. McCoy, that has been brought into existence and up to its present state of pros perity mainly by the work and influence of Mrs. Swain, formerly of Indiana, whose noble efforts and devoted Christian zeal has done much for the good of society in this section. My heart rejoices at the success of tem- K rance everywhere, but especially in our loved State. The fight against the terrible monster that brings woe and desolation, death and despair to so many happy homes, and destruction of both soul and body to so many persons, old and young, is being waged with a success that brightens our hopes for the future. God speed the day when we will be free from this giganticevil. The last meeting with the church at Ft. McCoy was one of rejoicing. Three gentle men, who are heads of families, were re ceived for baptism, among them our much loved friend, the husband of sister Emma Geiger, (formerly Barksdale). We look for others before long. We had a good refreshing rain yesterday, the first to wet the ground enough to plant potatoes successfully in two months. G. W. Hall. Melrose, Fla., July 29th, 1881. RECEIPTS FLORIDA MISSION BOARD.

ANOTHER CHURCH—ANOTHER MINISTER. As was published in these columns, a meeting was held at Spring Hill Friday, Saturday and Sunday, July Ist, 2d and 3d, and on Saturday ten brethren and sisters took preliminary steps to the organization of a church, which work was consummated on Sunday morning, and another letter banded in. The church took the name of Spring Hill. Elders G. W. Hall, B. I. Hull and W. N. Chaudoin were present as a presbytery to advise and aid. The church constituted called for the ordi nation of brother J. W. Deveneau, and, after examination, he was set apart to the full work of the ministry. Elder Chaudoin preached the sermon; Elder Hull made the prayer, (’barge to minister, with presents tion of Bible, by W. N. Chaudoin ; charge to church by Elder Hall; hand of fellowship by presbytery and congregation ; benediction by the candidate. Elder Hall acted as Mod erator of the presbytery, and Elder Hull, Clerk. On Sunday the audience was large, and the people seemed interested in the services. It was quite a pleasant event to be called upon to take part in the ordination of brother Deveneau, whom we bad known for years in Georgia He is the brother in law of Col. J. J. Howard, of Cartersville, and a brother beloved. OCALA. We went from Spring Hill to Ocala, and preached for the brethren on Monday night, received some new subscribers, a contribu tion for State Missions, and wanted to re- THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, AUGUST 18, 1881. main longer but could not. To visit Ocala is always a pleasure to us. We love the brethren and sisters there. We found a delightful home with brother Jeffords, whom we baptized the first time we visited Ocala. The brethren were pleased to learn that they were to have the Convention meet there in December, and will give it ahearty welcome, and take splendid care of the members. The church is without preaching now, and they are getting hungry. We were delighted to see the improvement at Ocala, and in the Spring Hill settlement, which is one of the most prosperous and pleasant communities we have found. But we can say no more now, except that we called on brother Harris, of the "Banner.” and found him prospering and cheerful, except the regret, universally felt, about the attempted assassination of our President. The Executive Committee of the Bulah Baptist Association met July 21st, 1881, and agreed to accept the suggestions of the Col umbia Union and the Baptist State Convett tion in employing the services of Elder Kinsey Chambers as missionary in the said Bulah Association and contiguous ter ritory. Reqnest that this notice be published in Thi Christian Index and Baptist Sun, that the churches may have due notice. J. G. Taylob, Ch'm. Jacob Elis, Sec’y. Tribute of Respect. We regret the great delay in forwarding the following tribute, which makes it con trary to our rules to publish it as an obitua ry, but we give it a place in the Florida De partment. Brethren, remember to send obituaries within a few months, at farthest, if you want them published. — Ed We, the committee appointed by the church to prepare an article in respect to sister Wright, have to report as follows: Elizabeth Frances Wright was born Sep tember 20ih, 1860, in Washington county, Georgia, and was baptized into Mt. Pleasant Baptist church, Columbia county. Florida, in October, 1804 by Elder Kinsey Chambers, her father, and married to J R. Wright De cember 27th, 1874, and, after a long and tedious illness, died May 21st, 1880, in Co) umbia county, Florida, leaving a husband, four little children and many relatives and friends to mourn their sad bereavement. Sister Wright lived as a zealous and con siatent church-member, faithful wife and affectionate mother, also a remarkably duti ful child to her aged parents. Sister Wright’s usefulness will long be missed in the family, society, and the church ot which she wus a faithful member for many years. Our loss was her gain. She died in the triumphs of faith. H. E Bbaddock, Washington Helton, J. G. Taylob, Committee. THE CULTURE OF THE ORANGE. Something About the Best Places for Thus Gbowih. [From American Rural Home, Rochester, N. Y.J ” The interest in orange culture is Increasing every year, and many persons iu Kentucky are contemplating purchasing land in Florida and puitingout orange groves. It is of the uimost Importance that they should select a locality as m-ariy frost-proof as possible so that they do not gel out of the range of transportation. The id a is to be as near the St. John’s river or some rail road as is consistent with freedom ;rorn frost. Th-- recent cold spell, which struck Florida, fur nlshes a valuable guide to nersous who think ol locating in that beautiful State. We now have definite advice from there, and :t appears at Jacksonville the oranges were frozen on the trees; at Fruit Cove on lhe St. John’s the oran ges were badly damaged; at Mandarin (Mrs. Stowe’s famous place ot residence) the oranges were hurt, and several parties lost their entire crop. At Palatka the oranges were greatly in jured ; a’. Crecent City, the oranges on the south side ol the trees escaped. But we observe that at DeLand, Orange City and the vicinity no orange, lemou or lime trees were injured, nor were ti e fruit on the trees the least damaged.’ The gua vas were a little scorched, and likewise the bana nas, but the staple fruits were all right. This is the section of Florida which we have commended to the favorable notice of prospective settiers of that State. The cheapness of the lands, the proximity of lhe St- John’s riv r, the character of lhe soils the in muulty from frosts and the healthfulri' ss of the climate as well as the excel lence of lhe drinking water speaks volumes in its favor. Severn! Louisville people have settled in that quarter, and speak in glowing terms of their pro-peets. The region is rapidly filling up with a desirable class of people, and it will emphatl cal ybe the ' garden spot ’of the State. There are lands in the neighborhood of Orange City, Spring Garden, DeLand and Beresford, which oiler every condition of successful orange grow ing, and we do parties who meditate going to Florida a kindly act by inviting their attention to this section. They will save a great deal of money by going dlrictly there, and not wander ing vaguely all over the State. A stranger in Florida may settle in a very unhealthy spot, he may locate on land unfit for fruit culture ; he may settle too near the frost line, or he may get too far from transportation. The section of lhe State which we recommend fulfills all the condi tions of soil, climate, frost, exemption and near ness to market. Good schools and post-offices, churches, stores, physic lans aud agreeable socie ty arc now found there, aud a region which a few years ago was an almost unbroken pine for est is now being converted into orange groves with handsome coitage residences everywhere visible—a plea«ant and beautiful picture." Cured of Drinking — "A young friend of mine was cured of an insatiable thirst for liquor, which had so prostrated him that he was unable to do any business. He was en tirely cured by the use of Hop Bitters. It allayed all that burning thirst; took away the appetite for liquor; made his nerves steady, and he has remained a Bober and steady man for more than two years, and has no desire to return to bis cups; I know ot a number of others that have been cured of drinking by it ’’—From a leading R.
