WHERE “WE" HAVE BEEN.
(Veil, on our return from Georgia, we went
to Wilderness church, some two miles west
of Newnansville, in the western part of
Alachua county. Why the church was
named “Wilderness’’ we did not learn, but
it is not a wilderness country. It is one of
the most beautiful and fertile sections of the
State we have seen. The church has no
house yet, but hold their services in the day
under—not much arbor—but under the
trees at the place where they propose to
build a house, on a beautiful lot given them.
A church was organized last year, under
the labors of J. K Sheffield, as missionary,
ahd he still preaches there. We hoped to
meet him there, but did not, though his
father, Rev S. Sheffield, was with us, and we
conducted services till Tuesday night, and
four were received for baptism.
We were suffering from toothache during
our visit, still we enjoyed it, and would like
to go again. We love to see anything eat
that is hungry. We love to preach to hun
gry people. To brother Ray and family we
are specially under obligations for favors
shown us. We got no subscribers, nor did
we take any collections, but we expect to
hear from there yet, and if we don’t, we
think they will hear from us.
How we passed through Gainesville, and
were superbly treated by Captain Ellis’s
daughter—he hurt us himself, but we love
him—and it was repeated on our return,
(the kind treatment, not the hurting), and
how we saw the track of the Florida South
ern'railroad finished through the city nearly,
and the cars running within a few feet ot the
Varnum House and the Arlington—we can’t
tell all about that.
We have been to Greenville, in Madison
county, and enjoyed our visit as well as last
year. Hoe could we help it, treated as we
were, by Hammerly and Harby and their
families, and by sister Tabb, whom we left
quite sick. We got some money, too, for
State Missions, and every subscriber renewed,
and some others will subscribe for The In
pex
Greenville to Madison, where we met the
Board of Missions, made our report and that
of our four missionaries, and bad money to
pay them and a little over, and the brethren
felt good, and we were happy, and so we
adjourned to meet next time at Ocala, dur
ing th* meeting of our Convention.
Madison to Jacksonville, en route to We
kiva Association at Orlando, Orange county.
Now, dear readers, hold up a little and con
dense, boil down, pack together your words
for a couple of months, that we and others
can “spout” about our Associations. We are
going to try to be brief, too, but you cannot
imagine how hard it will be.
This was the most important meeting of
this young Association. Three new’churches
had been organized in the Association, and
were received into the body, and the Midway
Association, in the western part of the coun
ty, bad dissolved, and three or four churches
came to the Wekiva. The money sent up
and collected at the meeting was $136.39.
Os this amount $74 42 was forState Missions,
and was turned over to the State Board, and
about as much pledged, to be paid by Christ
mas. The missionary collection Sunday
amounted to S2B 35, but not a word was said
about missions in the sermon. Chaudoin,
B. M. Pack and Dr. Mays were the visiting
ministers. The spiritual feeling of the meet
ing was a marked feature. Dr. Mays, on
Sunday night, preached one of the best ser
mons we ever heard. Elder Pack also
“crammed” in some good work in talks and
sermons.
The new officers (both of the former ones
absent) did well for the first time—Elder 8.
F. Gove, Moderator, and young brother Cul
pepper, Clerk. The absence of Elder G C.
Powell was felt, and the memory of him
tender and beautiful.
The court house could not hold the people
Sunday and Sunday night. Elder Tindall
preached the Introductory sermon, and
praised The Index, and quoted from it.
Good, but he needs to "put the brakes on.”
Elder Hayman was slow, rather, but sure
Brother Watson followed him earnest and
sensible, but followed too long. Elder Wil
son we did not hear, but heard of his sermon
—a good report. Brethren Savage, Lawton
and Kendrick were not put forward, nor did
they put themselves forward like some of us.
Our home was with brother Paul B. Jau
don, recently from Texas, and we want no
better one. God bless him and his dear
family.
We got a goodly number of new subscri
bers and renewals for The Index. Well, it
was a right good Index boom.
The next meeting will be at Apopka City.
We have but one regret tomention; that we
do not as a growler, but for the cause, and
to make a request, as we will not have time
to write to each pastor. There was not one
cent reported or collected for Foreign Mis
sions. We do beg the pastors to ask for a
few dimes or nickels at each church the next
meeting after you see this. Try to raise a
dollar, at least, from each church for the
poor heathen. If we want to be blest at
home, we must work some away from home.
Don’t forget, brother pastors. Brethren,
don’t let your pastor forget this request.

ciation, held at Hopelul church, July sth,
Bunday, and two days preceding.
Elder D. M. Walker, from the Perry Uns
ion, was present, and represented the Board
of Ministerial Education.
Committee on Order of Business presented
the following queries, which were discusser!
a >d answered:
1. Is it the duty of the Church to assist in
the education of young ministers? Yes;
(and old ones, too, by helping them to get
papers and books necessary.—En )
2 Is there any Scriptural authority for
missions? Ans. Yes.
3 Is the religious training of our children
obligatory upon us as parents and churches?
Ana. Yes. ,
Elders Harns and Frier preached during

BANANA LETTER.-QUERY.
DearßbothebChaudoin: As it has been
about a year since you heard from me last, I
thought I would write agaiu, and ask you
why you rejoice more over preachers and
deacons marrying than other people? ....
Hoping to see you at our Association iu No
vember, I am, as ever, your niece,
Sue B.
Glad to hear from you, dear niece. We
are glad when anybody marries, if they do
well, but especially so when preachers or
deacons marry, because they need a help
meet more than others, and we have a “fel
low feeling” (which “makes us wondrous'
kind”) for those two classes.—Shad.

A Query.—“ Should churches recognize a
minister who has been excluded from the
church of his membership, and deposed from
the ministry, and still continuee to preach ?’’
Querist.
0f course not; and such churches are act
ing disorderly, for they are casting reproach
upon a sister church who excluded him, and
by “bidding him good speed,” are guilty of
the crime or wrong he has been guilty of.
And if he has been guilty of no crime or
wrong before, but has been badly treated, he
gets into wrong badly by preaching after
being excluded. There is a better or a right
way for such a man to pursue, and a man fit
to preach will generally pursue a different
course —Ed.
From eminent Dr. C. C. Clark, Oswego :
“ .... I have made sufficient experiment
of Colden’s Liebig’s L ! quid Extract of Beef
and Tonic Invigorator to enable me to say
it is by far the best of all the preparations of
the kind (food and tonic) that I have ever
used. To the sufferer from chronic diseases,
or the convalescent, it is invaluable, being
both nourishing and strengthening. (Re
member the name, Colden’s—take no other.)

ILLUSTRATION.
The following illustration we take from a
recent letter in the Western Recorder of late
date it is rich in thought,—forcible,
timely.
“The last exhortation to the colonist is,
be sure of victory.
“In nothing terrified by your adversaries.”
says Paul. He uses a very vivid, and some
people might think, a very vulgar metaphor
here. The word rendered terrified properly
refers to a horse shying or plunging at some
object. It is generally things half seen and
mistaken for something more dreadful than
themselves that make horses shy ; and it is
usually a half look at adversaries, and a
mistaken istimateof their s rrngth, that
makes Christians airaid of them. Go up to
your fears and speak to them, and as ghosts
are said to do, they will generally fadeaway.
So we may go into the battle, as the rash
French minister said he did into the Franco-
German war, with a light heart,” and that
for good reasons. We have no reason to
fear for ourselves. We have no reason to
fear for theark of God. We have no reason
to fear for the growth of Christianity in the
world. Many good men in this time seem
to getting ball'ashamed of the gospel; and
some preachers are preaching it in words
which seem an apology rather than a creed.
Do not let us allow the enemy to overpower
our imaginations in that fashion. Do not
let us fight as if we expected to be beaten,
always casting our eyes over our shoulders,
even while we are advancing, to make sure
of our retreat, but let us trust our gospel, and
trust our king, and let us take to heart the
old admonition: “Lift up thy voice with
strength ; lift it up, be not afraid.” Such
courage is based upon a sure hope.

WHA T SHE SHO ULD DO.
A FEW SUGGESTIONS OF IMPORTANCE
ON A SUBJECT OF INTEREST
TO THE LADIES.
And certain Facta Which should be Known
by all Women.
From the Home Journal,-New York.
A short time since an article appeared in
this paper, being a synopsis of a lecture
delivered by a prominent woman before a
well-known New England society. This
article dealt so directly with the needs of
women, and contained so many hints which
were valuable, that it naturally attracted no
littleattention, and has, we learn, been a
subject of comment in social circles in
nearly every part of the land. Realizing
that no subject can be of more vital import
ance, as well as interest to all readers, than
- the condition of the women of America, we
have collected and prepared with consider
able care, additional facts bearing upon the
same subject.
The ladies of this country have been more
observed and talked aboat than those of any
other land, and Europeans always notice
their characteristics—usually with admira
tion. Sara Bernhardt declared she could
not see how sny one could resist falling in
love with "those pretty Amerioan ladies.”
She might have added, that even her far
famed French nation would find it difficult
to equal, much less excel, American women
in quickness of perception and brilliancy of
intellect. The minds and manners of Ameri
can women are all that can be desired; but
it is a lamentable fact that their physical
frames are far inferior in comparison with
their social and mental characteristics. The
wom< n of England are noted for their florid
health ; those of Germany for their strong
constitutions, and the ladies of France for
their exuberance of spirits; but American
women possess no one of these qualities in
any prominence, and all of them only in a
slight degree. The reason for this must be
plaiu to every careful observer. Sedentary
ways, devotion to fashion—but above
all and more th’an all, carelessness and in
difference to daily habits and duties, have
rendered the women of this land far less
strong and healthy than it Is either their
duty or privilege to be. This irregular and
indiffeieut manner of living brings about the
most serious results and is both directly and
indirectly of untold injury to the race. The
cause, therefore, being manifistly under the
control of the women themselves, the power
to remove it must naturally be under their
control also. American women can possess
just as charmed lives as though they lived
in Europe or any foreign land, if they only
desire and determine to do so.
The primary cause of suffering from dis
ease is impure blood. The performance of
the natural functions of womanhood and
motherhood is not a disease, nor should it
be treated as such, and to maintain ones
health the organs which make and purify
the blood must be preserved in, or restor d
to, their normal condition. These organs
are the kidneys and liver.
It is the office of the kidneys to take from
the blood the poisonous matter which has
been collected from all parts of the body
and pass it off from the system. If they are
impaired in their action they cannot do this
work, the poison accumulates, ail the organs
in the body which aresustained by the blood
are weakened and give way, and tidally the
kidneys and Jcontigious organs become the
source of great pain, and without prompt
relief death is certain.
It is the office of the liver to extract other
impurities from the blood aud utilize a por
tion of them for digestion. If the liver is
disordered all forms of dyspepsia occur, the
bowels cannot expel the waste matter and
the most distressing inconveniences follow.
This is especially true in the case of women.
And if the bowels are thus inactiveand over
loaded the neighboring organs, which are
particularly dependent for their right action
upon the state of the liver, bowels and kid -
neys, become displaced, and the consequeces
which ensue are too well known ti require
restatement in a suggestive article of this
kind. The secret, however, of preventing
these manifold disorders is to keep the kid
neys and liver in perfect working condition.
This is reason, this is science, and it appeals
with force to the suffering women of
America.
When the body is in a healthy condition
then come beauty’ of complexion, elasticity
of step, hopefulness of disposition and com
fort and happiness in the duties and respon
sibilities of a family. There is, therefore,
every incentive to secure and preserve buoy
ant health.
Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, the
remedy described in the lecture to which
reference has been made, is receiving, as it
certainly merits, the most careful attention
and the trial of the women of the land. It
is a pure and simple vegetable remedy which
is now doing more to bring health and
strength to the American women than any
one thing which has ever been discovered.
It acts directly upon the liver, kidneys and
adjacent organs, soothes any inflammation,
allays all pain and places those organs in a
condition to bring health to the body and
happiness to the life. The manufacturers of
this great remedy, as we learn from the lec
ture, have the written thanks of thousands
of women—many of them of great promin
ence—but these letters are very properly
1 regarded as too sacred for publication. No
true woman is pleased to have her physical
troubles flaunted in the eyes of the world.
The unquestionable value of Warner’s
Safe Kidney and Liver Cure is all the more
manifest from the fact that heretofore no
adequate remedy for the ills of women
I has ever been discovered; nor have the med
ical profession ever been able to assist wo
men in her troubles as she deserves. This
is, pterbaps, largely due to the presence of so
much bigotry and intolerance in that pro
fession. The history of medicine is a his
tory which illustrates to the fullest the
blighting tffect of bigotry and intolerance.
Harvey, who discovered the circulation of
i the blood, was driven out of England. Jen
ner, the fatherof vaccinnation, was oppress
ed aud scoffed at. Thompson, the founder
of the Thompsonian theory, was the victim
i of a hateful conspiracy. Morton, in Massa
chusetts, who introduced the use of ether in
■ surgical operations, was charged with witch
craft, yet the discoveries of these men are
to-day recognized as ofinfinitelbenefit to the
race. It is the solemn duty of every physi
cian in the land to take advantage of every
opportunity which is within his reach; not
to promote the interest of this or that school,
but to heal the people of their infirmities.
All have witnessed death-bed scenes and
felt that if skill were tqual to disease death
might have been postponed many years ago
—that science (if use were made of all the
agencies she has revealed) was equal to a
cure.
How many a time in the experience of all
has this been illustrated ! A cold ie oontrac
ted, it refuses to yield to a fixed form of
treatment, the physician may not be candid
enough to call in the aid of other sccbools
or of independent agencies, and the dear one
dies because the doctor will dot exhaust
every expedient known to the world for res
lief! If he have the courage of his convic
tions and employs outside agencies he is
visited with expulsion from the society of
his fellows, and, forsooth, becomes what
they choose to call a’ quack”. When they
have exhausted all the agencies approved by
their schools they “shirk the responsibility”
of the death of their patient by advising a
trip to Colorado or Florida or a voyage to
Europe I Such treatment may be in accord
ance with the “code of ethics,” but in view
of the unprejudiced public it is downright
cruelty, if it may not be evtn more strnogly
characterized.

There is no reason, however, why the
women in this land should not possess the
best of health and spirits The oharacter of
the country,the activity of her surroundings
and the opportunities afforded for recover-,
ing lost health and retailing the same are
greater than those of any other land on the
face of the globe By a careful observance
ot the plain and simple laws of health; by a
watchful care over daily habits and dutits.
and by a regulation of the life with the
remedy above named, which has become so
prominent and valuable, there is no reason
why all the desirable things we have men
tioned may not be secured in their highest
degree. It is therefore a matter of import
ance that all women give this subject the
attention which it deserves, and the care
which they ar.e able to bestow, conscious
that their efforts are certain to bring them
perfect health and long and happy lives.

A NEW LAW BOOK.
Messrs. Silman & Thompsop of the Jefferson
(Jackson county) Bar, will soon have out a Hand
Book of Legal Forms, prepared especially to aid
Justices of the Peace, Ordinaries. Clerka.Coronera,
County Commissioners, Road Comnjssloncra.
Sheriffs and Constables, in the performance of
their duties as officers.
Below is attached the opinions of several of the
ablest lawyers of the State, who have thoroughly
and critically examined the work.
As the edition will be limited, all persons want
ing copies will address either the compilers at
Jefferson, or the publishers, Messrs Jaß. P. Harri
son & Co., Atlanta, Ga. Price, S 5 00 per copy.
Atlanta, September 26,1881.
Under special employment for the purpose, by
Messrs. Silman Thompson, I have carefully ex
amined the collection of legal forms which they
have prepared As a result of the examination,
I can ana do recommend these Forms, each and
all, as safe and sufficient. They aie calculated
to serve the wants, not only of attorneys at law,
Ordinaries, County Commissioners, Clerks, Sher
iffs, Coroners, Justices of the p eace, and others
engaged in administering the law or executing
its process, but, also, in some degree, of business
men in general, such as merchants, bankers,
brokers, factors, etc. Even meStanles, planters,
farmers, aud their employes, may consult them
with advantage, and on many occasions save
time and expense by using them. I think they
may be followed with confidence—with full re
liance upon their accuracy. L. E. Bleckley.
The Joint Committee of tho Senate and House
of Representatives, appointed under the resolu
tion of December 3d, 1880, to examine and report
upon the Hand Book of Legal Forms prepared
by Messrs Silman & Thompson, of the county of
Jackson, submit the following report:
The manuscript was presented to the committee
after the commencement of the presets t adjourned
session of the General Assembly. It was divided
by the author Into five parts, one of which was
thoroughly and critically examined by each
member ot the committee; after which the whole
work underwent such examination as the limited
time and opportunity would permit. The com
mittee are satisfied, fiom this examination, that
the forms contained Lu this volume are safe and
sufficient, as well as concise and accurate, aud
are, therefore, adapted to the geueral wauls of
those who wish to use legal forms,
