Light and Life of Men.—We
commend this -excellent Book to all
in need of a good commentary on
John. It is an exposition of John
from Chapter Ito chapter XII. The
work is admirably written by Ilev.
F. B. Meyer, of London, and will
amply pay perusal. In it the author
has attempted to present some of the
unsearchable wealth of the Gospel of
the Divine Life of Jesus, and he
commends it to the people of God
with the desire that it may bo used
by the Divine Spirit to bring them into
a deeper Knowledge of life, light
and love, as they are in Jesus Christ,
our Lord. This excellent book has
just been issued from the press of the
Fleming H. Kevell Co., Chicago and
New York. The book is cheap
enough at the price, iI.OO.
Mr. J. C. Hemphill, editor of the
Charleston, (S. C.) News and Courier,
will contribute to the May number of
The Forum, an article on the action
of the Southern Democratic Repre
sentatives in Congress for the free
silver bill. He undertakes to show
that the vote of the majority of
Southern congressmen does not fairly
represent. Southern sentiment: that
they have substituted expediency for
sound Democratic principle, ami that
the tendency of ]>olitics in the “New
South” is a travesty on the states
manship of former days. Mr. Hemp
hill further points out the great finan
cial loss that would fall upon the
South, particularly upon the pro
ducers of cotton who are consumers
of manufactured and imported good*,
if any free silver bill were to become
a law. It is an article that is sure to
provoke discussion in all the South
ern States. Among other articles in
the May Forum will be “Ten Years
of the Standard Oil Trust-,” by S. C.
T. Dodd, Solicitor of the Trust;
“Incalculable Room for Immigrants,”
especially in the South, by Edward
Atkinson; and a dozen other timely
discussions.
Sherwood’s Memoirs.—The edi
tor of the Index begs leave to call
attention to this interesting volume.
Dr. Sherwood was a prominent figure
among Baptist preachers and Bap
tist workers for many years. His
name is linked with Baptist history
in Georgia from .1818 almost to the
day of his death. The life of such
a man is full of instruction. His
memoirs was written by his daughter,
assisted by Rev. S. Boykin, D. D«
Orders for the book will be taken by
the editor of the Index, to be filled
during Southern Baptist Convention.
Price 81.25. No one who buys the
book and reads it will regret the in
vestment.
The pulpit occupies a unique posi
tion in current literature. There
never was a time when good preach
ers were in such demand, and the
interchange' of sermonic thought is
calculated to Improve the general
tenor of pulpit utterances. The
April issue contains twelve complete
sermons by such well-known preach
ers as Bishop Coxe, Mark Guy
Pearse, J no. McNeill, Thomas Dixon,
Dr. C. L. Thompson, Prof. Davidson,
the late Canon Liddon and others.
The magazine is true to its title and
purpose, which is a great recommen
dation. $2.00 a year.. 20 cents a
copy. Edwin Rose, Publisher,
Buffalo, N. Y.
After the Grip
And after typhoid fever, diphtheria’
pneumonia, or other prostrating dis
eases, Hood's Sarsaparilla is just
what is needed to restore the strength
and vigor so much desired, and to
expel all poison from the blood. It
has had wonderful success in many
such cases.
Hood's Pills act especially upon
the liver, rousing it from torpidity to
its natural duties cures constipation
and assist digestion.
Flying Machines.—Mr. Hiram
Maxim is building an apparatus for
aerial navigation. He believes that
he has sufficient power in this new
apparatus for the purposes of flight.
He believes, too, that his arrange
ments for causing the machine to
keep in the proper place so that it
will move straight in the air, are suc
cessfully devised. “It may how
ever,” he says, “ be that the size may
be the main difficulty,’’—his machine
being larger than any ever yet made.
It is to be hoped that some day some
simple l device will be found, if flying
be desirable, as simple and as effec
tive as the whigs of a bird. Surely
the true child of God has found
wings for his soul, so that he can
“mount up with wings as eagles do,”
soaring higher, higher, with unbeat
ing wing, ascending into the advanc
ing light. ’ S.

THE MEBOEB TROUBLE.
The daily press last week published
several statements about the trouble
with the Sophomore class at Mercer
University. Dr. Nunnally gives this
authoritative version of the mat
ter:
The president was absent at the
convention and Professor O’Kelly,
who has the chair of Greek, also at
tended the Baptist convention at
LaGrange, and during his absence it
was agreed that his classes would be
met by other professors, each assign
ing lessons to the classes, not in Greek,
but in his own department, Professor
Steed taking certain hours and as
signing extra lessons in Latin, Dr.
Brantly certain hours and extra les
sons in English, Professor Ryals cer
tain hours and extra lessons in mathe
matics. The classes assigned to Dr.
Brantly and Professor Steed respond
ed promptly and met the provisional
requirements. The sophomore class—
with the exception of a few—refused
to meet Professor Ryals and entered
into a written agreement not to make
the recitations under Professor Ry
als. For this insubordination and
conspiracy these students were sus
pended for one week. The class ap
pointed a committee to wait upon the
faculty with an explanation,' which
they hoped would secure their relief,
but the committee in explaining and
defending the class made the matter
worse and the faculty believing that
the committee voiced the sentiments
of the class thought it necessary to
increase the penalty,' and therefore
suspended them for the balance of
the term, 6r until each student for
himself should make satisfactory ac
knowledgement. A day or so pass
ed, when the committee disclaimed
any wrong intention hi this obnoxious
explanation and asked the privilege
to withdraw their strifement, which
had been offensive to the faculty,
and which has resrdteti’in an increase
of the pendlty. Thatneing done, the
students were as at the first,
under suspension for one week.
The action taken “by the other
classes toudling the rithtter was very
considerat6"and respectful sustaining
the facultyin taking serious notice of
the offense ahd in punishing the of
fenders. But this resolution did not
reach the faculty until final action
was taken arid iu no tvise influenced
the faculty ih* ther# disposition of the
case. fully appreci
ate the kindly offline ;sn<l co-operation
of these clashes in hdj'nsting the diffi
culty in the best interests of the stu
dents of the institution.
Gi Al Nunnally.
GEOEGJA KEMJMISOENOES.
Elder Jacob Walker, Pastor of
Springfield AGunfc Church, Au
gusta, G«., fori aftsnit thirty to
thirty-fivq yeay&i i.
This remarkable ii<««ro in the days
of slavery, had, by the children of
Col. Walker, to whom he belonged,
been taught to read; an acquirement
which was contrary (to law at that
time. Having boon 1 taught by the
Spirit and “called of God as was
Aaron,” he possessed l in an eminent
degree, those gifts which characterize
one holding “tho office of a bishop”
delineated; in 1 Tom. 3: 2,8, 4,7.
He was examined for ordination aj
the request of his church, by the
elder, Dr. W. T. Brantly, Drs. Adiel
Sherwood, James Shahnon, Jesse
Mercer and Abraham Marshall, as
council, who ratified the action of
the church “by the laying on of the
hands of the presbylery.” t
No minister in the city ten joyed
the confidence of all classes, or was
held in higher estimation for consis
tency of life and consecration to his
work than was “Uncle Jacob,”'ns he
was commonly called by all the
younger or middle aged citizens,
during the forties, when I made his
acquaintance.
lie had a broad, benevolent look
ing face, large, well formed head,
with high forehead, thinly covered
with hair, white as wool, —for he was
a full blooded negro, being in 1840
about sixty-live or seventy years old.
Being a slave, his church which
numbered about sixteen to eighteen
hundred, raised a fund and bought
him from his mistress, Mrs. Walker,
w ithout his knowledge. When noti
fied by a committee of this transac
tion he was ratlicr nonplussed. An
nouncing that he desired every one
who contributed to the fund to meet
at the church tho following night l
Their honored pastor thus addressed
them: “ Brethren, I appreciate your
intended kindness, but it is about
such kindness as a tamed bear once
showed towards his master of whom
he was very fond. While tho master
lay asleep under his bower in the
garden, the bear saw a fly crawling
over his face, and to scare it off, he
threw a pumpkin weighing twenty
pounds at it, which damaged his face
severely. Now, I have this to say,
if this trade is not cancelled before
the sun goes down to-morrow, I will
never raise my voice in this house
again. You are slaves, so am I, and
I can see a mercy in that Providence
which brought our race here from
heathen lands to hear the gospel and
enjoy ‘the glorious liberty of the
sons Os God.’ ‘lf the Son make you
free you shall be free indeed.’ I.
rarely ever saw a free negro that was
of any account.”
The trade became null and void
This church belonged to the Hephzi
bah Association and Uncle Jacob
AValker, with his five or six messen
gers, never failed to attend the ses
sions of that body. On one occasion
the Association met at Bark Camp,
in Burke County. The younger Dr,
AV. T. Brantly, pastor of Green street
church in Augusta and other messen
gers from that church attended, also
Uncle Jacob and his delegation. A
wealthy planter living five or six
miles from the church, whose wife
was an active member, invited Dr.
Brantly to his house, saying he could
entertain thirty or forty if necessary.
Dr. Brantly remarked, “AA T ell, Col. if
you have no objection I will have the
negro messengers to go also.”
“Certainly,” said the hospitable
Colonel. On arriving at his home
this noble gentleman, a true type of
Southern planters before the war.
said to his coachman, “This is Jacob
AValker, the black piaster from Au
gusta. Do you see now that he and
all his company are well cared for
and have everything need for them
selves and their horses.”
There were probably twenty to
twenty-five guests present to partake
of the magnificent hospitality of Col.
among whom were several minis
ters. Being too far to return to
the church for preaching at night, as
was the custom, services were to be
held iu the parlor. Several present
had never heard this old man of God,
and it was agreed that he preach.
At the appointed hour Dr. Brantly
invited him in and introduced him to
the audience. AVith characteristic
humility he walked up to the large,
elegant family Bible, lying on a rich
marble-topped center table, and re
marked, —“Brethren, while I shall
try to perform tlie duty you have im
posed on me, I assure you I feel very
empty.” At that juncture, the hospi
table host who knew more about
politics and agriculture than about
the work of the Spirit, sprang to his
feet and said with much feeling, “It
is astonishing that my orders have
not been obeyed! Hold on, old man,
I’ll see that you have something to
eat.” Dr. B. caught his friend by
the arm and said, “Stop Col., he does
not allude to any food you can give.”
In a tone of mortification the Col.
said, “I ask your pardon, friends, I
ask your pardon.”
The text used was “Labor not for
the meat which perisheth, but for
that which endures unto everlasting
life, etc., John 6 : 27.
Listening to the touching portray
al of that wisdom which is from
above, contrasted with those “things
which perish with the using,” that
noble man’s heart was opened by the
Lord, as was that of Lydia, Acts 16:
14. He attended to the things
spoken” by the old servant, and soon
after was baptized, becoming an
active and useful member of the
church. “It pleased God by the
foolishness of preaching, to save
them that believe.” J. T. S. Park.

I wish to’thank you for your kind remembrance in sending me, all the way from Georgia,
such a splendid watermelon. .... . « ,
Jly daughter, a little four and a half year old, in the ecstacy of her soul as we feasted
upon the gHstening icy meat, and the sugary juice streamed down Ix'tween her tiny fingers,
exclaimed: “Oh. pappa, isn’t it just like dripping honey.”’ and so said all of ns. Solid, meaty,
very sweet and juicy, and with a thin rind. Very sincerely yours, William Falconbb.

Dear Sir: , „ . , „ ~
Referring again to yours of the 2d Inst., relative to sample Ruby and < raid watermelon so
kindly sent to us, wo have pleasure in advising you that the tlesh was crisp, tender, moder
ately sweet and peculiarly molting, having nothing of the coorsmiosn of liber so marked in
Kolb's Gom. At the same time it lias stood the rough handling ami long keeping much bettor
than most rarities having such tender flesh would nave done. Yours respectfully.

From the Roral New Yorker or Auo. 30th, 18.70:
A melon called Ruby Gold was received froin Mr. A. W. Smith (Americus, Ga.), weighing
fortv pounds. The flesh is well described by the name. In quality it was swoet—too sweet—
but the flesh was not as tender or "molting’’ ns that of better known kinds.
Never knew of * watermelon complained of ns "sweet—too swoet —before.
PHir.ADRLrHiA, Pa.—" The colors tiro bright and clearly defined whilst flavor is delict.

Messrs. V. H. Hallock & Sox, or Queers, N. Y.. says or Ruby Gold :
In quality it has a sweetness and luciousnoss which no other melon possesses, being
tender and melts in the mouth like ico cream, without a particle of core or stringy substance,
very juicy and does not lose its flavor when it becomes over ripe.
