8 Florida Department. W- OHAUDOIH. OerrMponding Editor ud Agtnt- Office at Cleaveland A Bona’ Furniture Store, Went Bay street JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA. THE STATE CONVENTION. The next session commences Thursday, December Bth, 1881, at Ocala, Marion county. The only railroad running to the place is the Waldo branch, or Peninsula road, which leaves the Transit road at Waldo at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and arrives at Ocala about night. Delegates must get there Wednesday evening, or they will miss Thurday's session. A boat leaves Leesburg Wednesday at four o'clock, and connects with the railroad at Silver Spring Thursday morning, by which delegates coming that way can get to Ocala in ample time. We trust it will be the largest meeting ever seen of the Convention. All the Associa tions, so far as we have heard, appointed delegates, and those yet to meet doubtless will. Then we trust that a goodly number of churches will send one or more members, and individuals, too, will attend, we hope, as members, as the amount required to seat a delegate is only $3 00. The money is used in meeting necessary expenses first, and the balance in mission work. We do entreat the brethren to come pre pared to remain till morning at least. Try not to come with a nervous fit on you to get back. It is only once a year the Convention meets, and you may never attend another. You need not be afraid of taxing Ocala, or 'eating it out.” A more liberal, cordial people you never saw. There is every pros-, pect of having more visitors than ever be fore. Already we are advised of brethren from Kentucky, Alabama and Georgia. Do not, bri Florida, let them come and out-number us. Matters of importance, more so than usual, will engage our attention, especially the work of State missions. The question of start ing a Baptist paper is tai ked of by some, and a free talk about the matter might or will be useful, let results be what they may. It is a matter we are all interested in—all over the State. Begin now to get ready to come to Ocala. '■ WHERE “WE" HAVE VEEN. We left you, dear readers, at the Suwannee Association, near Rixford, but just on our arrival, and we did not tell that Elder M. A Clouts was elected Moderator, and we hardly remember now, how many for Clerk, till at last brother Lee consented to serve. Well, the machinery needed greasing evidently, for things jerked and seemed out of fix. Attendance on Thursday thin, so very thin that nothing was gained much as to time in meeting on that day. A good deal of time lost on Friday, reading letters that did not arrive on Thursday, and there was not material enough to fix up committees. Toward noon Friday a goodly audience had assembled and the churches were pretty well represented. Brother M. H Frier, of Florida Associa tion, preached Friday and “we” broke up the meeting for him and then we ate dinner. We bad the opportunity of making a state' mein for the Slate Board, and received a good voluntary contribution for State mis-, sions. We represented The Index, “Kind Words" and t'Child's Gem.” We are not going to tell you how many subscribers we got, and you need not ask, but we got the money to continue The Index to sister Ooates. We have a pleasant recollection of our visit to brother Bii .son, and the more pleas ant because it brought to mind the sweet associations with another branch of the family in Georgia. We did think it looked like “cold comfort” though, as we passed by Thursday and he was at home, and so near the church, and we have not quit thinking so. One of the oldest delegates to the meeting (Peter Grubbs says we ought to say messen- Sers, and that is right,) was brother T. R. fercer, a son of Rev. Joshua, and a nephew o’ Jesse Merctr, of Georgia. The old brother is active for one of his age, and made an earnest, vigorous speech in the Association. We went to Live Oak and preached to a “wee” audience at night, and enjoyed a visit to sister Pashley and had a pleasant inter view with her son, a zealous young minis ter, and with brother Caldwell, of Jasper. At the lonely, midnight hour, we took the train for Jacksonville, en route to the St. Johns River Association, and so we know no more to tell about the Suwannee Associa tion, and we would rather not undertake to tell what we don’t know about it. At Jacksonville we embarked on the steamer Rosa, for Picolatta, as we thought, but that turned out like a good deal of our thinking—wrong. To get off atTocoi was the best that could be done. Leave Jacksonville at 1 o’clock p. m., we thought, but we left after supper, end so were put off at Tocoi about midnight. We felt lonely all over, might have to take rooms at Sprawls’ but got a place to rest and sleep, and much did we need both. Sunday morning we did not g-t up early,—rested and slept,—but event u il'y got up, prepared for, and waited to be called to breakfast by the "colored sister,” who furnishes tramps a place to rest, but no grub. The delusion was broken about 9 o’clock, and we started on foot, like our Master generally traveled in Judea, to find Osceola church, and after walking seven miles we found it Yes, and dear reader, it was an era in our history—one of our grandest successes, for we never took one wrong step or made a mistake. We believe in the preservation of the saints, till they get to glory, stronger now. The Lord led us or directed our steps to Osceola, of course he did, and he can lead us to heaven and we are happy in the thought that he will do it. We got to the Association, and right here we rest a while, for we need it nearly as much as that day when we got to Osceola; and you may read wbat a messenger and newcomer to our State says about the St. Johns Baptist Association in the Journal: "The St. Johns Baptist Association met with the Osceola Baptist church on the 15th inst., and continued its meeting until Mon day evening. 17th. "Rev. B. W. Becks was elected Moderator for the second time, and 8. E. Timmons was made Clerk. "There were present: Elders E. B. Tim mons, Becks, Willis, Robinson, Glisson, Bassford. Chaudoin, Thomas and Dias. "Harmony, interest and great nlgious fervor prevailed. The Association has been organized about four years, and is increasing in numbers, intellectual and moral stamina, and is exerting an influence all over the region it takes under its supervision. "Most excellent discourses were delivered by father Timmons, on "Mission;” Elder Chaudoin, State Missionary Secretary, on “Personal Religion and Benevolence;’ M. Willis on the practical theme of "True Piety and Doing Good;” Mr. Glisson, on “ L’be Sin of Idle Words;” Dr. Robinson, on "The Character of Christ, and the Power of His Influence in the World." THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1881. "The members of the Association acted as if they were abreast with the progress of the day in all the advancing Christian activities: Sunday schools, the temperance question, the subject of home and foreign missions, a proper religious literature for the rising generation and even the adult, were dis cusied, and provisions made for their ad' xancenent and dissemination. “A moot successful Sabbath-school mass meeting was held on the Sabbath, conducted by the Moderator and Mr. W. D. Ashton, Superintendent of the school. To this con' summation Dr. Fisk, of Picolata, had greatly contributed by bis previous labors in con nection with the - Superintendent of the school. "Visiting brethren lent much interest to the meeting, especially Rev. W. N. Chau doin, of the Missionary State Board, who resides in Jacksonville, and also a Mr. Star, a layman, from Cortland county, N. Y. "The Association embraces all the churches in St. Johns, Putnam and Volusia counties, and numbers about nineteen churches in all, taking in a few churches in Clay county. The Association employs two missionaries, who visit, under an annually appointed board, a large number of destitute portions of the work. This board consists of Elder Becks and brethren Bell, McCrider, Fraser and Brooker. “The Association dropped from their for raer name the word ’North,’ and made it the ‘St. Johns Association,’ as it now em braces a larger territory than formerly. “The Association adjourned Monday afternoon, to meet with the Pasan church, in Putnam county, next year, on Saturday before the third Sabbath in October. “A. H. Robinson.” We call attention, to one slight error in brother R.’s well-written account, viz: that all the churches in Volusia county are in the Association. Most of them are, but not all. Nor need much be said in addition. We would emphasize what brother R said of that Sunday school exercise. It excelled anything we have met in the way of Sunday school teaching. A series of questions and answers, involving our denominational features and history, that was extensive, had been arranged, and the answers, in the main correct, were given by boys from 50 or 60 years old down to lads. In this work Dr. Fisk and Miss Bell should be especially mentioned. Wbat a work for the Master and for hu manity has been done there by our faithful brother Becks! And by easnestness and consistency of life, he has a bold on the love and respect of the people beautiful to behold. And bow it cheered us to hear the testimony borne by Dr. Fisk to the usefulness of brother B.'s labors ! How we love to meet a Chris tian that recognizes denominational differ ences, but yet does not allow it to affect Christian fellowship 1 Such a Christian (and minister, too,) is Rev. Stephen Fisk, M. D , of Picolata, a Presbyterian clergyman. His assistance rendered, and courtesies shown, during the meeting, were grand and princely, and Mrs. F. was equally as cordial. The Lord bless them. We were never at Ocala before, but, the Lord willing, we will go back. The Index is increasing its list on the east of the St. Johns river, and we beg the breth ren to help run it up higher. “So mote it be.”—Ed. FACTS AND FI CUFFS. —"I am at Hopeful church.

Your name and his was better than a letter. —Brother Scruggs, of Jacksonville, has been quite sick, but is slowly improving, and we hope will soon be strong again. —Are you praying for the Convention to be a blessing to the messengers, the church at Ocala, and to the cause of Christ ? —Brother Spivey, of Stewart county, Ga., has a sister in Florida, and talks of bringing his pastor, brother Fackler, with him to our Convention, and visit his sister. Will not others do so? —Where will the Convention meet in 1882? Who will ask for it? —All the members of the State Board, and all our missionaries are requested, if possi ble, to attend the Convention. Please note this, members of the Board, for we will not have time to write you. Let there be a full meeting at Ocala. FLORIDA ASSOCIATION. Dear Brother Chaudoin : Owing to press of business, I have been unable before this to write you about our doings at the Florida Baptist Association; but the old adage, "better late than never,” I presume, will hold good in this case, especially as I have something good to communicate. Our Association, according to appoint' ment, assembled with the Perry church, in Taylor county, (which, by the way, is a thriving little town, the county site of Tay lor county). We met a whole-souled set of citizens and brethren, who vied with each other to make our stay pleasant. The Association was permanently organ ized on the election, by acclamation, of myself as Mo lerator, and brother H. B. Gib son, of Madison, as Clerk. We had the most harmonious session it has ever been my pleasure to witness, and I trust much good was done by the body. Brother Proctor talked Index for us, and well did he represent it to the people. I gave a talk for our infant Board, and proposed a collection to be taken up right then for its aid for State Missions. I was followed by an able speech from that old war horse, D. M- Walker, when impulsive Mc- Cants jumped up and planked down a dollar on the table, accompanied by a stirring speech, and the collection commenced, which resulted in the sum of nine dollars and twenty'flve cents. It was handed to me to forward to you, and, it all being silver, is too heavy to send by mail, so I added 75 cents more to it myself, and enclose you in this $lO for our State Mission Board, and may the blessing of God attend it. We were sorely disappointed in not meet ing you, and I heard the query on many lips, "Where is Uncle Shad: we want to see him?’’ But alas, you didn’t come. We hope for better luck next time. We had double service on Sunday, brother Manning preaching at the court house, and brother McCants at the church. I remained at the church to hear brother McCants; my wife went to the court house to hear brother Manning, and she was completely carried away by his sermon, and said if she hid had a hundred dollars, and had wanted a " love of a bonnet ” ever so bad, she would have put it all in the hat when it was passed around for the collection. Thinking that possibly my letter may get too long, I will close by saying hurrah for us and success to you, The Index, and the State Board. Respectfully and fraternally yours, James H Wentworth.

By the President of the United Stales of America : A PROCLAMATION. It has long been the pious custom of our people, with the closing of the year, to look back upon the blessings brought to them in ibe changing course of the seasons, and to retu-n thanks to the all-giving source from whom they flow. And although at this pe nod, when the falling leaf admonishes us that the time of uui sacred duty is at hand, our Nation still lies in the shadow of a great bereavement, and the mourning which has tilled our hearts still finds its sorrowful ex pression toward the God before whom we but lately bowed in grief and supplication) yet the countless benefits which have been showered upon us during the past twelve months call for our fervent gratitude, and make it fitting that we should rejoice with tuanqtulnessthat the Lord in His infinite mercy has most signally favored our country and our people Peace without and pros lierity within has been vouchsafed to us ; no pestilence has visited our shores; the abun dant privileges of freedom which our fathers left us in their wisdom, are still our in creasing heritage and if, in parts of our vast domain some affliction has visited our brethren in their forest homes, yet even this calamity has been tempered and in a man - ner sanctified by the generous compassion lor the sufferers which has been called forth throughout our land. For all these things it is meet that the voice of the Nation should go up to God in devout homage. Where fore I. Chester A. Arthur. President of the United States, do recommend that all the people observe Thursday, the 24th day of November instant, as a day of National ttiai.ksgiving and prayer, by ceasing, so far as they may, from their secular labors and meeting in their several places for worship, there to join in ascribing honor and praises to Almighty God, whose goodness has been so manifest in our history and in our lives, and offering earnest prayer that His bounties may continue to us and to our children. In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand, and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Done at the City of Washington, this fourth day of November, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and eighty-one, and of the Inde pendence of the United States the one hundredth and sixth.
