8 Florida Department. W. <■ OHAUDOlM.Oorr.i'pondlng Editor »nd Agent Office at Cleavelaiul <v Nou* Furniture olore, Went Bay -treet JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA. 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 AND BOOK OF MINISTERS. This work is being delivered to those who have subscribed for the same. We have a limited number over and above our list of subscribers. Those 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 tion of our readers to the advertisement of Charles A.
