New Church.— From another article in
this paper our readers will learn we are
soon to have a Presbyterim Church in
Norcross. The organization hitherto known
as Goshen Church have decided to move
here and eirect during the ensuing year a
a house for worship. Until they erect their
house here they will have services at the
Old Academy on the first Sabbath in each
month.
We cordially welcome this church into
our midst, and gladly chronicle this ad
ditional step in the progress of Norcross.
Next to good schools and newspapers
churches constitute the most productive
element of prosperity to towns and cities.
They augment material Interests as well as
give tone and vigor to morals.
Norcross Bibl* Society.— On last Sab
bath morning Rev. W. A. Parks, the pop

the claims of the Bible Society, and effected

cross Bible Society. The following are the
officers elected: Hon. James P. Simmons,
President; Dr. Thomas Boring, Rev. G. E.
Gardner, and J. J. Thrasher, Vice Presi
dents; 8. T. McElroy, Secretary and 'l'reas.
The Rev. Mr. Parks proposed to furnish
the Society with sixty dollars worth of
Bibles, if they would raise twenty dollars.
His proposition was accepted and the Bibles
are forthcoming. The poor who are unable
to buy Bibles can obtain them by calling
oa Mr. McElroy at his store. We wish
the Society much success in their noble
work.
THE CONSTITUTION’S “FAT MAN.’’
Colonel Acton, the jolly, talkative and
efficient agent of the Atlanta Constitution
was in town Monday. We know of no
man who possesses more natural elements
for success in his business than Colonel
Acton. The tact he display* in talking to
men of any class is inimical, and always
makes him popular. Then bis knack in
presenting the merits of the Constitution is
incomparable. He knows he represents
an indispensable paper, frankly tells the
people so, convinces them, pockets the
subscription feea, heartily thanks them,
wjd depart* evidently feeling he has done
his country service.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
STEPHENS AND LAMAR.
Washington, December 5, 1873.
Editors Advance :
Congress assembled on the Ist instant
with a full attendance of Senators and
Representatives. The House now numbers
290, and all were present except four or
five. Each party nominated its candidates
for all the offices of the House. The
Republican party have a majority of over
two-thirds. Os course they have things
their own way. The organization was
completed at once, and the House pro
ceeded to business with vigoi*. The most
notable feature in the proceedings of both
Houses is the number of bills introduced to
repeal the act of the last Congress increas
ing salaries, and the seeming eagerness and
earnestness with which gentlemen press the
consideration of these bills. No less than
twenty-five or thirty bills have been in‘re
duced —some proposing to repeal the act
increasing the salaries; others pi opose to
settle and fix the salaries; some of them
by constitutional provision and some by
statute. It is not difficult to perceive that
the late elections, particularly in the North
west, have had much to do with this move
ment. It is a simple and plain question.
The true policy upon this subject is to set
tle by law the amount of salaries upon the
basis of adequate and just compensation
not so large as to enable the incumbents to
make fortunes, nor so small as to exclude
poor men from them. It will be a dark
day for the interests of this country when
all classes and interest are not represented
in the National Legislature, the poor as
well as the rich.
Two distinguished men reappear in this
House, after twelve year’s absence, the
Hon. Alex. H. Stephens, whose fame is
world wide, and “will go sounding down
to ages”—-and the Hon. L. Q. C. Lamar.
The clear ringing tones of Mr. Stephens’
voice: “Wood !” in the vote for Speaker,
w’aked up echoes from by-gone days and
by-gone glories, and suggested his match
less parliamentary manoeuvering in the
palmy days of his leadership in the House,
and his great speeches on the Kansas-
Nebraska bill, the Oregon question, the
Clayton compromise, and other great ques
tions of National concern. Mr. Stephens
is feeble, though he attends the House
every day. He has received marked respect
and attention from all persons and parties.
On the second day of the session, after
an elaborate discussion of the questions in
volved in a motion to seat certain members
from West Virginia by the leading mem
bers of the Republican side of the House,
Mr. Lamar arose and commanding at
once the attention of the entire House,
made an argument—clear as sunbeam in its
logic, pure and eloquent in its rhetoric,
graceful and chivalric in Us manner, and
convincing and decisive in its results. It
made one feel a pride in the still glorious
manhood of his down-trodden section. A
small sprig of nobility in the person of
Lord RosenbUrry, a British Lord by inher
itance, appeared in the House to-day. I
would suppose him to be twenty-five years
of age; he had much the appearance of a
clerk in a second-class Jewish clothing
establishment. It was fortunate for him
that he obtained the peerage by inheritance.
The Cuban excitement has subsided.
The protocol agreed on between Secretary
Fish and Admiral Polo seems to be re
garded as a solution of Hie trouble.
There are several contested seats in the
House; Marion Bethune’s contest of Hon.
H. K. Harris’ seat, from the Fourth Dis
trict, amounts to nothing. No evidence
has been taken by Bethune in the case, and
the time allowed by law for taking it has
elapsed, so that the contest stands unsup
ported by a word of testimony. Mr. Har
ris has prepared an argument that is un
answerable even if there was anything in
the contest. The Committee on Elections
will probably consider this case on Monday
next. The case of Sloan against Rawls
will be pressed with vigor on both sides.
The Speaker announced to-day the Stand
ing Committees of the House, placing, as
was expected, the Southern Democrats at
the tail of unimportant committees.

CUMMING ITEMS.
Cumming is becoming quite a cotton
mart. The enterprising firm of Kellogg,
McAfee & Co; have done most of the gin
ning and packing this season. Their new

more on hand. When these gentlemen put
their shoulders to the wheel the machine
moves.
Mr. John Cain still keeps the Excelsior
Hotel.
Mr. T. L. Simms, the Captain of Good
Templars, is repairing the Hallman Hotel.

county
Judge Lewis is getting rich, not in ill
gotten means, but in that which rewards
an honest and industrious life.
Mr. Leßoy Edmonson is meeting with
great success in his cash store.
The Methodist Church is still unswept.

of Forsyth are distressingly healthy.
Rev. H. B. Nuckols, one of Forsyth’s
best men, is making agriculture pay just as
he does everything else.
Dr. Nichols claims $3,839 for his loyalty
to the United States during the rebellion.

FOlt SALE IX
GWINNETT COUNIT.
The lands which were advertised for
sale in Lawrenceville, on the first Tues
day in this month, by the subscriber, were
not sold at auction, as was intended, in
consequence of the money crisis now pre
vailing, and the heavy rain which fell dol
ing sale hours. A minimum price was
fixed on each tract, however, and a few
were sold at private sale.

and are now offered at the price to each
annexed, to-wit:

acres, which is a pine old fine. The soil

bottom land. Price $7 per acre.
The Northeast, Southeast and South
west quarters of lot number 140, contain
ing, according to original survey, sixty
two and a half acres each. The Covington

O
THE ADVANCE
Is designed to promote all the great
interests of our readers especially, and of
our country and race generally.
To do that we promise to give them each
week the most important news, both
Foreign and Domestic ; the Market Re
ports and Atlanta Prices Current; the
Legal Sales of Gwinnett and a few other
counties,etc., and such Literary,Scientific,
Educational, Political, Agricultural and
Religious reading matter as wo may from
time to time think most interc.st.iug and
profitable.
In Polities the ADVANCE will be
independent; but it will not be partisan,
nor do injustice to any party, oi indi
vidual, knowingly. And, as we hon
estly believe, that the first and chief care
of all Christians should be to defend our
holj’ religion against the wiles of Satan—
his hosts and tneir arms, we will discharge
this sacred duty, as best we can, under
the guidance of Him who is able to direct
and keep us in the way of truth.
We will also studiously avoid giving
cause of offense to any professed Christian
on account of difference of opinion, arid
will not, through this medium, attempt to
build up any one branch of ths Church
more than others, nor to injure any one of
them.
OUR RELIGIOUS PLATFORM.
We believe that there is a per
son al God —who created and over
rules all things—that Jesus Christ
is His Son and our Savior, and that
tho Holy is His messenger
and our instructor.
That the Bible was written by
inspiration of God—is true—and
the only safe foundation for
Christian faith and practice.
That the soul is immortal—that
there will be a resurrection of the
dead and final judgment, and that
the punishment of the unre
deemed will be eternal.
And will insist, that all who
agree in these fundamental propo
sitions,and seek salvation through
Christ, constitute his Church, and
should all unite and co operate
with Him, and each other, in the
sacred work of redemption, as an
affectionate family of brothers
and sisters.
