THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND FLORIDA
BAPTIST.
It may be that some of our brethren in
Florida are not informed of the manner in
which Thx Christian Index wm brought
into its present close relationship with them,
taking the place of ‘‘The Florida Baptist,"
which during its existence was regarded as
the organ of the denomination in that State
We, therefore, present the following facts,
which we ask our Florida friends to consider
seriously and candidly:
• In thefpring of 187 dat the Baptist State
Convention held at Gainesville, it was made
manifest that the‘‘Florida Baptist" was in a
languishing condition, indeed its existence
was seriously threatened by financial causes.
Knowii g this fact, and anxious that our
friends in the "Land of Flowers” should not
be left to the inconvenience of having no
journal whose services they could command
Dr. J S. Lawton, at the solicitation of some
of the brethren of Florida, went to the Flor
ida Baptist State Convention, at Gainesville,
as the representative of The Christian In
dxx,and submitted a motion designed to heal
the evil threatened by the probable suspen
sion of the "Baptist.” As was entirely
natural and praiseworthy, the brethren who
composed that Convention were loth to give
up their home organ and pledged it their
support. The editor of th al paper, brother
McCallum, encouraged by promises then
made, resolved to continue the publication
of "The Baptist” if the support promised
should be given. Consequently theproposi-.
tion of The Index was not then accepted.
Brother McCallum continued to publish
‘‘The Baptist” for about two years as he
declares, at severe pecuniary loss, the prom
ises which were made him at the Conven
tion having failed of performance in many
instances. The time came when he was, in
justice to himself, compelled to abandon the
publication of “The Baptist,’, so, as a pru
dent man and friend of the denomination,
be resolved to make the best arrangement
possible for himself and his Baptist friends.
Ti e true siiuation having come tothenotice
of The Index Company, and with the hope
o7"rupplying Florida Baptists with such
se: vice and kueb weekly visitations as their
convenience and religious ccmfort might
dtmand, we engaged to place a Department
of 7he Index at their special control, and
to give them in addition the benefits and
bletsHigs luuluLg me publications in
the entire paper. We have endeavored to
perform our contract with fidelity. If “The
Baptist" could have been continued we
should have rejoiced at its prosperity, .and
it was only after a long and severe experi
ment that theeditorof the‘‘Florida Baptist”
abindoned the enterprise, and not until
then did The Index offer to become the
organ of the Florida Baptists. Realizing the
old and true adage, “In union there is
strength,” we were glad to unite with our
Florida brethren in their time of emergency
and to extend the hand of cordial greeting
It was not the spirit of envy, or avarice that
actuated us, but, we, think, the spirit of
brotherly love. Looking over the situation
from our standpoint, and enlightened also
by brother McCallum's statements, we felt,
as he did, that the time had come when
those engaged in it should wisely decide
upon the next best policy within their
power.
This plain and tiulhful review of the
causes which led us into our present rela
tionship, is given in justice to all parties
concerned. If our brethren in Florida desire
any reasonable change, and will suggest it,
for their special department, we will gladly
conform to their wishes. If they prefer to
nominate an editor for their department, let
the Convention select their man or men and
they shall be placed in position. Or, if the
experiments already made do not convince
our brethren of their inability to sustain an
independent journal, and they now feel that
the time bus come for them to renew their
efforts in that direction, we cordially bid
them God-speed.

LETTER FROM MELROSE.
The session of the Santa Fe River Asso
ciation, that closed on the 21st instant, was
one of the best meetings I ever attended ;
several things contributed to make it such.
Fiist. Rev. W. N. Chaudoin was Modera
tor. He presides so well, manifests such
kind, loving, brotherly consideration for
every one, that a spirit, of Christian love and
unity pervades the entire body. Rev N. A.
Bailey, of Georgia, was Clerk. Georgia has
lost, but we have gained immensely by this
dear brother’s coming amongst us. He is a
power for doing good wherever he goes.
The second thing I will mention that made
this one of the best Associations! meetings I
ever attended, was the vigilant, constant
attention of the pastor of the church, our
beloved brother, Rev H M. King, who
spared no pains or care in helping and ntak
ing everything convenient and pleasant for
everybody in attendance.
Thirdly, the members of the church and
the community around Eliam, attended the
business meetings of the Association, and
gave good attention to the discussions of the
various reports ol the committees, and
manifisted an intense interest in every item
of business till nearly sunset of the last day
of the session. I have been pained to see
the reverse of this with some churches and
communities where I have attended Asso
ciations
Fourthly, we bad an unusually large num
ber of able and devoted preachers in atten
dance. Brethren Chaudoin, King, Bailey
and Pack, of our own Association, and quite
a number of correspondents and visiting
brethren, among whom may be mentioned
brethren Breaker, of Missouri; Q teen, of
West Virginia; Gordon, of Indiana, and
Woodbury, of Massachusetts.
Fifthly, the sermons delivered were of
more than common ability and power espe
cially the introductory, by brother Breaker,
the 'missionary sermon, by brother Bailey,
and the sermon Monday, by brother Gordon,
cn “Love.”
And last, but not least, we were the only
Association that I have heard of that has
been honored by the presence of a "King
and Queen ” a real live King and Q teen ;
but this ' King and Queen” were certainly
with us, and done us such excellent service
that we will long cherish an affectionate re
membrance of them in our hearts.
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1881.
This Association is r nmerically very small
at present, although I believe it is the third
oldest in the State Only a few years since
it was the largest in the State, but, having
furnished churches to form the principal
part of three other Associations during the
last four or five years, we are not astonished
or discouraged that we are little; but, with
the talented and devoted ministers we have,
and the large proportionate number of in
telligent anil consecrated deacons and lay
men, together with the pleasant and inviting
geographical position of our Associations!
territory, with a perfect net work of rail
roads t-aversing our section, affirding the
best facilities for travel and transportation
i<> the Sta'e, with God's blessings upon our
• ff .rts to build up His cause in our midst,
we look forward with fond anticipation to
the glorious future of the Stnfa Fe River
association. G. W. Hall.
Melrose, Fla., Nov 28:h, 1881
FLORIDA FISH AND OYSTERS.
A correspondent of the Savannah News,
writing from Cedar Key says:
From the large quantities of Cedar Key
oysters which are every season transported
to Georgia, I a.u inclined to think they are
favorites with your good people. It has been
my experience in my travels that where
these bivalves are best known they are most
appreciated. Their peculiar flavor, differing
so much from those on the Atlantic coast
recommends them to the most fastidious,
which causes the demand to be far greater
than the supply. This supply, however, can
lie largely augmented by giving the same
care and attention to their cultivation on
the Gulf as is bestowed on the Chesapeake
Bay. The Gull furnishes the best planting
grounds south of the Chesapeake. The laws
of the State of Florida give protection to
this valuable industry and offers to every
oysterman the opportunity of making a
good living. Yes, ifindustrious, adopting a
plan to carefully foster the finest beds and
not indulge in the wholesale spoliation of
important beds, which is too often done
when the quantity seems inexhaustible, a
fortune awaits many. The increase in our
population in the winter ar.d the fact that
Cedar Key oysters are being called for in all
parts of the Southern country, are the rea
sons there is a large grov th in the consump
lion, and unless the supply is increased so as
to meet this demand prices will no doubt
advance.
An immense business is now being done
by the fish dealers of Cedar Key with all in*
terior cities and towns in Georgia and South
Carolina. Hundredsand hundreds of bar
rels, tierces and hogsheads of fish are moved
every week Last season empty packages
were exhausted, and fish were shipped from
Cedar Key to Georgia in bulk by the car
load, and from present indications many
shipments this season will have to be made
in car load lots.
The fish this season are very large and of
superior quality, and are selling at prices
w ich, when compared with past seasons,
must be very remunerative to dealers Our
Gulf mullet fishermen do not use a forty
horse power engine to draw in their seines,
as the North Carolina herring fishermen are
forced to do, but if the demand continues to
increase, as it has for the past season, they
will have to adopt the same means for catch
ing the mullet, which run in schools of thou
-ands, and the supply then, no doubt, will
be largely increased. No fish is more palat
able than a good fat mullet nicely broiled,
and our Southern cooks know how to do
this to perfection. Sbeephead will soon be
plentiful, and our Northern visitors can in
dulge to their heart’s content in this favorite
of theirs of the’finny tribe. Bass and trout
are plentiful, and of good size. But few
blackfish and red snappers have been caught,
but as soon as Northern dealers commence
Io send in their orders fi hermen will turn
their attention to these, and meet all des
mands.
The Atlanta correspondent of the
Savannah News relates the occurrences
of “Florida Day" at the Atlanta Inter
national Cotton Expos ; tion as follows :
“The Floridians are extremely happy
at their good luck. The city is full of
people, and there is a big crowd at the
Exposition. The Florida building has
been wonderfully improved in all re
spects within the past two days, and
was ready to-day for official inspection.
A magnificent display of mantel, stair
posts and cornices, composed of twenty
four different varieties of native woods,
elaborately worked, arrived at noon
from the mill of Drew & Bueki, of Su
wannee, and attracted marked atten
tion. The Florida building and grounds
were crowded all day with delighted
visitors.
“At three, o’clock speeches were
made in front of the main entrance
Dr. A. S. Baldwin, of Jacksonville, as
Chairman, introduced Major A. J. Rus
sell, of that city, who welcomed every
body to the Florida building, and to
Florida in one of his most elaborate
and eloquent speeches, in which he
spoke of his pride for his State. Other
States, he said, can be duplicated, but
there is no other Florida in this
Union. She has a soil and climate and
products peculiarly ber own. God
made her soil to suit her climateftand
her products to suit both. She has the
largest area of any State east of the
Mississippi. Before any other State
was known, Ponce De Leon landed on
the shores of Florida, and St. Augus
tine stands to-day the oldest of cities,
with modern architecture mingling
with that of a long past era. Spain
and England ruled Florida until she
became a part of the Union. Since
that time her progress and develop
ments have been wonderful. Major
Russell then spoke of her extended
seacoast, her magnificent soil and
scenery around Tallahassee and up the
St. Johns river, her orange groves, and
her other crops, which can be cultiva
ted twelve months in the year. His
eloquent eulogy of the ‘Land of Flow
ers’ was frequently applauded, an I will
accomplish great good for the State.
He never spoke better, and at the close
of his remarks, in response to loud
calls, Governor Bloxham made a few
timely remarks, complimenting and
endorsing Major Russell’s address. The
Gj verflor was greeted with hearty and
prolonged applause. He and his party
have been kindly received here, and
honored in many ways.
“Florida’s day was all her own, and
has been the most successful of any
special day yet set apart, and she will
reap a rich harvest from her invest
ment here, although late in getting it
in shape for the exhibition.”
HISTORY OF GEORGIA BAPTISTS

who wish to possess a copy, had better
apply at once. We hope to be able to
send out all very so tn now.
We have but one price, which is $5
per copy. When a club of five or
more names is made up, and sent in
from your own post office, we -will al
low the Agent an extra copy of the
work, for each club of five subscribers
sent us, with the money. How many
whose biographies appear in the work
will order a number of copies, and pre
sent it to their children and friends ?
Bro. I. W. Goss c me Jm and took five
copies for his children. Who will be
the next ?
We will keep a record and see who
it is that will appreciate our efforts to
place in permanent form so much that
is of interest and value to Georgia Bap
tists. Unless you respond promptly
and liberally, we shall sustain loss in
our undertaking.
What Rev Dr. Tupper, of Richmond,
Va., says:
Dr. Tupper, acknowledging the re
of his copy, Nov. 30th, says: “The
Book is elegantly gotten up, and is in
valuable to the student of Baptist his
tory in Georgia.”
Sanford Journal: “Mr. J. 8. Arnold,
of Longwood, has been appointed Su
perintendent of the Sanford Telegraph
Line, from here to Wildwood, and also
of the South Florida Telegraph Line,
from here to Kissimmee, with head
quarters at Sanford. Mr. Bradford,
late operator here, has gone to the
Wildwood end of the line, and Mr. G.
F. Parker succeeds l.itn as operator
here. Work on the line to Kissimmee
is being rapidly pushed, and is expected
to be up and running as far as Mait
land by Saturday evening.”
The Bartow Informant says : “There
is no telling how long an orange will
remain on the tree after ripening. In
the spring those that still hang on the
trees from the preceding season become
dry and insipid. If allowed to remain
until the next crop ripens, it is said
that they again fill up with juice and
become about as sweet as they were at
first.” _
It is said that there is nothing of the
nature of a legal oath in Japan. Wit
nesses in courts are requested to tell all
the particulars; but all the sanctions
and penalties, Divine and human,
which render an oath sacred, are total
ly wanting. There does not seem to
be any punishment whatever for false
witness.
The Advance thinks that Leesburg
will soon be counted rail
road centres of Florida. It says : “By
next summer we will, in all probability,
have three roads running, and there is
a certainty of two being in operation ”
The Florida department in the At
lanta Exposition attracts universal
attention. The unique display is
greatly admired, especially by Northern
visitors.
We call attention to the advertisement in an;
other column of “Mound City” and ‘ Big Giant’’
feed mills manufactured by .1. A Field At Co.,
St. Louis, Mo The “Big Giant” has become so
well known in the United states, T. rritorles and
Canada, as well as in many foreign countries,
that it is unneces ary to add further comment
The “Mound City" is exactly the sam - in crush
ing parts, while the grinders are eul rged and
improved, so as to greatly increase the capacity
of the mills, as well as to adapt it to the recep
tion of steel grind-rs. and greatly lessen the cost
of the grinding parts so that when millisworn
out. grinderscan be replaced at half theco-t of
other mills The g-itiding capacity in fine grind
ing, as well as grinding oats and small grain has
been nearly doubled, without diminishing crush
ing abilities. Manufacturers claim to make the
only mill crushing and grilling corn and eob |
with sweep power, with cast steel grinders, and
propose, if they have opportunity, and fail <o j
prove this by actual test, to give a mill for half
price to the purchaser furnishing theoppcr’unity
to make t te test.
These manufacturers claim to make the only
mill with sieve attachment, as well as the only
practical m|U for grinding corn and c b. made
for belt power. '1 he principal features that go
to make their mills superior to all others, are
the device for taking up the wear, and their
crushing blades, which make the mi l wear much
longer, and do equal amount ol work with one
half the power. Over 25 manufacturers and
dealers in different parts of the country have
been prosecuted io final settlement for infringing
these patent features, aud ask anyo ,e d- siring to
purchase a mill, to uot pur hasea mill having
crushing blades of any other make, if they wish
protection in the use of the same.
Betid to manufacturers for circular and full
particulars.
A Great Reduction.—We call the atten
