RELATION OF CHRISTIAN GIVING
TO TRUE CHRISTIAN ENJOY
MENT.
BY REV. B. G. TUTT, D. D.
Every Christian duty and every
Christian privilege carry with them
corresponding Christian enjoyment.
The God whom we serve is not a
hard Master.
For everything we do for Him
there comes to us a corresponding
blessing, and the character of the
blessing is conditioned upon the
character of the service we ren
der.
There is what may be called the
law of service which expresses itself
in language like this: “J ought to do
this, this is my duty.” Ami there is
a love of service which expresses it
self in language like this: “1 delight
to do thv will, O my God, it is my
joy, my supreme delight, my meat
and my drink to do thy will.”
Both the law and the love of ser
vice ought to be manifest in the
Christian life, taking in both the
duty mid the privilege of service,
and out of these comes the truest
and highest Christian enjoyment.
Every well instructed Christian
feels it to be his duty to give to the
Lord’s cause, but every well instruct
ed Christian does not always feel it
to be a blessed privilege to give.
There are before the best of us
vast, yncxplored “regions beyond”
in the Christian privilege of giv
ing.
Most of us have yet to learn that
it is not what we take up, but what
we give up that makes us rich in
the highest, truest sense.
To gfve from a sense of duty no
doubt brings us within the scope of
the divine blessing, such giving will
verily receive its reward, but that,
the soul experiences a higher sense
of enjoyment as it expands and de
velops in the more genial atmosphere
of loving service is true beyond all
. controversy.
To give from a sense of duty will
no doubt satisfy the demands of con
science, and that is no mean attain
ment in our Christian experience, for
ihnusands of Christians are living
even below this standard, but to give
from a sense of love is to reach the
perfection of Christian enjoyment.
Dutiful giving brings us into the val
ley of blessing, loving giving puts
our feet upon the very olivet of
j°y-
This is the kind of giving that
puts us by the side of the churches
of Macedonia of which Paul speaks
when be says: “that in a great trial
of affliction the abundance of their
joy and their deep poverty abound
ed unto the riches of their liberali
ty.”
The idea seems to bo this, the
great joy which they had in the fel
lowship and service of Christ lifted
them above the great trial of afflic
tion and made their deep poverty to
abound unto the riches of their lib
erality, and what is this but a verifi
cation of what was spoken of God's
people in their captivity, “the joy of
the Lord is your strength?”
Surely this is true in times of trial
and affliction.
The joy of the Lord is the mea
sure of our strength to endure and
suffer as Paul ami Silas testified in
the prison at Philippi and as thou
sands of Christians have testified
since that day.
Why should it not be the measure
of our strength to give to God as
well as to receive from Him?
If we recognize it as a factor in
passive service and suffering why
not carry it into our Christian activ
ities.
If it enters into the being and suf
fering of the Christian life, why not
also into the doing?
It was this joy of the Lord, no
doubt, that strengthened Sarah Hos
mer, of Lowell, Mass., a poor woman
living in an attic and working with
•her needle to contribute SBOO for
the education of six missionaries for
the foreign field.
David Paton gave his entire for
tune of $1,000,000 to missions and is
now living on a small annuity, and
yet when he listened to the thrilling
appeal of Dr. Arthur Pearson he
gave $3,250 to the cause of Him
whose joy was his strength.
It is related of a Mr. Hamilton, of
Glasgow, a surveyors clerk, with a
salary of SBSO a year, that he gave
annually to his church SIOO, and
when his Synod made a special Call
for SIOO,OOO, he gave one hundredth
part of it, one half of the savings of
a life time. Such giving must be the
result of the highest Christian enjoy
ment.
God’s gift to the world is the high
est expression of His love for the
world, for He “so loved the world
that He gave His only begotten son
that whosoever believeth on Him
should not perish but have everlasting
life.”
Paul understood that to be the
highest expression of God’s love to
men, and upon it he bases his argu
ment of God’s boundless benevolence
to His people, “He that spared not
his own son but delivered Him up
for us all, how shall lie not with Him
freely give us all things.”
In like manner the highest expres
sion of Christ’s love to the world was
■in giving Himself for the world;
hence Paul says “the life which I
now live, in the flesh, I live by the
faith of the son of God who loved
me and gave Himself for me.”
Out of this sacrifice of Himself
1 think came the highest joy of our
Lord, ami out of such Christlike giv
ing of ourselves with all that we
I have must come to us the highest
| Christian enjoyment.

j HEARN SCHOOL AT CAVE SPRING'
AND GEORGIA BAPTIST CON
VENTION.
Dear Index : It seems necessary
for some one to explain a few thing ß
owing to the misapprehension of the
relation between Hearn School and
the Convention. Above all others
the Executive Committee should
know how this school stands to the
convention.
That committee takes ground
I clearly untenable, or we here have
for many years not known our busi
ness. It is high time the matter
should be settled. Certainly it is
vital to the school. If we, the trus.
tees, with all our interest here, belong
to the Georgia Baptist Convention
and are to be manipulated at will by
the Executive Committee of that
i body, we want to know it. If the
■ school on the other band is indepen
dent wo want to know it.
First, allow me to give a few his
torical facts. About the time the
Cherokee Indians were removed and
Cave Spring Church was constituted
in 1837, a few Baptists looked upon
this canaan of North Georgia, saw
! that it was good and suitable for a
school of high order. Such men as
( A. Richardson, A. 'l'. Harper, Wil
: son Whatley, T. 11. Sparks, Hugh
Quin and others, then and there de.
' termined to establish a permanent
| high school; first a manual labor
! school, obtained the rite, got togeth
er a few thousand dollars, purchased
adjoining lands and went to work-
The place whereon the village of
Cave Spring now stands was part
of the land. The school was not act
ually begun until 1839. In 1840-41
a school building was put up on the
campus, that beautiful grove with
the large spring and eave which has
attracted the eye of so many visitors.
Since 1839 with an interval of two
:or three years during the war the
• school has been in continuous opera-
I tion up to the present date,
In 1844 the Georgia Baptist Con
vention met at Cave Spring. Lot
' Hearn of Putnam county was pres-
I ent. He was impressed with the
Leant vof the place. The school en-
/ 1 . .
i terprise aroused his interest, and the
result was, in 1840 his will revealed
the fact that, ho had left $12,500 to
the school. This, by the will maker
was put into the hands of the Exec
i utive Committo of the Georgia Bap
tist Convention, the interest to be
turned over annually by said com.
mittee to the school at Cave Spring,
| then adopting the name of Hearn
Manual Labor School. The Labor
was dropped after two or three years
and never been resumed. The will
provides however that this change
should not cause the school to for-
I feit the interest of the fund. These
are the facts as they were then.
Lot Hearn did not turn the school
! over to the Convention. He had no
, right to do this; nor does it appear
that he had any desire so to do.
The trustees owned in their own
name nearly 200 acres of the best
land in Van’s Valley at the time
' they received the bequest. Lot
Hearn had nothing to do with this
| and they disposed of such por-
I tions of it, and tn such way as they
chose, also in their own name.
Let the fact be clearly understood
■ that Lot Hearn did not establish the
school. It was in operation five
' years bofore ho visited the place,
and perhaps before he knew any
j thing about the place or the school,
1 He chose to make the Georgia Baptist
i convention the custodian of the leg
j acy and the interest to go the school
at this place; nothing more, nothing
I less.
Now, as to the rights of property;
for when it comes to real estate,
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX: THURSDAY, JULY 28. 1892.
which the trustees have held for fifty
throe years or longer, we must abide
by the general law’ of the land.
Under the present condition of
things the showing must be a clear
one. Can the Georgia Baptist Con
vention or the Executive Committee
show a deed of this school with its
appurtenances to them? If so, we
should certainly have knowledge of
such a paper. We should long since
have been better informed, when we
were making, as we thought, legal
transfers of property to Outside par
ties. The convention or its repre
sentatives should have signed all our
deeds. Are all the transactions of the
board, such as the payment of bills
for repairs, the purchase of furniture
and equipments, the beneficiary tui
tion, the employment of teachers>
some of them reaching back fifty
years, and involving thousands of
dollars, are they all invalid? We
have at all times been willing and
ready to certify the convention of
the existence of Hearn school and
give its general standing?
This was, of course in place for us
to do, for the convention held the
fund and the interest could go no
where else but to this school.
But the demand for an intemized
report such as prescribed by the Ex
ecutive Committe we innocently
thought was a step beyond her juris
diction. It was an unexpected de
mand. Such a report has never be
fore been rendered the board of trus
tees here. The demand for such a
demand for such a report presup
poses authority on the part of the
Exscutive Committee of which we
were not aware. Ownership, real or
assumed.
This is the point we want settled.
If real all the business transactions
of the 1 learn School have not only
been irregular but unlawful.
Again, that Baptists over the State
generally, and members of the Con
vention in particular, may under
stand how matters are between the
Executive Committee and Hearn
School I wish to bring out another
fact, important to be known. It may
not interest all, but it is a matter of
dollars and cents to us, and we will
ever be found contending for the
rights of the school, until it can be
shown we are not in authority.
Last summer there was evidence
that the committee did not intend to
semi us our interest at all. After a
month’s waiting past the regular
time our treasurer wrote to the
treasurer of the Convention, asking
the cause of the delay. His reply
was that the committee had told not
to send us any more interest until
further instructed. We then went
to the committee, still silent about
the matter, as their treasurer had
been. As it seemed to us, they
would have kept back our money
and withheld any explanation, for an
indefinite time, if we had not push
ed. The committee replied by de
manding an itemized report. An
attempt to reason the subject was
ignored. The inference was that of
course tney held the right to send us
our money or not as it might suit
them. We did hesitate to attempt
to render such a report as such had
not? been required in the past history
of the school, we did at last consoli
date a report, incomplete as it was,
and sent it. The interest, or a part
of it, came after some months’ delay,
the report was unsatisfactory, “as it
showed a large per cent, of the
money had been loaned to some of
the trustees of “Hearn School.’
Minute, page 51. The fact that this
is objectionable to them, makes it a
direct insinuation upon the charac
ter of our board. In reply, without
at present going into details of our
oun business, we are willing for this
fact, hideous as it may appear to
them, to stand opposite the fact that
the Georgia Baptist Convention,
through her Executive Committee,
and by her Treasurer, has lost over
half of the 112500 entrusted to her
by Vot Hearn for this school and
now retains from year to year a part
of the interest upon the remainder.
The first is made public in the con
vention minutes.
It is nothing but fair for the latter
to come before the eyes of the Bap
tists of Georgia.

MUSICAL ADVANTAGES.
The Georgia Female Seminary, at
Gainesville, has secured for the com
ing year a musical faculty equaled
by but few institutions in the South.
Prof. Chas. J. Wallace, who taught
with such great success at the semi
nary last year will remain at the
head of the department.
He is indeed a wonderful musician
ami the great success which is attend
ing the school is, in a great degree,
the result of his enthusiastic efforts.
No school in Georgia can show an
orchestra of young ladies in which so
many different instruments are used.
There is no need of Georgia girls
going North to secure the very best
instruction in any department of
music. The department of
VOICE CULTURE
will be in charge of Miss Belle Du
Bois, one of Boston’s most talented
and successsul teachers. The semi
nary is indeed fortunate in securing
the services of this noted artist, for
artist she surely is. After a three
years course at the N. E. Conserva
tory, Boston, she went to Italy
where for five years she was a pupil
of the finest masters of the great Mi
lan Conservatory. The following
letters extracts tell of her ability:
“The feature of the evening, how
ever, was the singing of Miss Du
Bois. She never looked so charm
ing, never sang so admirably and
never triumphed so gracefully as
upon this occasion. She was grand
beyond comparison and judged by
her own high standard, beyond crit
icism. Portland (Ore) News.
The somnambula met with a very
happy reception. Miss Dußois is a
very sympathetic artist, has an ex
tensive and beautiful quality of
voice, perfect intonation and is in
deed a fine musician. In all her
parts the public applauded warmly
especially in the rondo which she is
made to repeat every night. (Cos
Morama, Milan Italy.)
The Crawfordville Ind., Times, in
speaking of a pupil of Miss Du Bois,
says:
Miss Nicholson appeared in three
numbers and was enthusiastically re
called each time. The improvement
she has made during her stay in Bos
ton under the famous Miss Dußois,
is plain to every one. Her voice is
much stronger, its range is greater
and the tones are clearer and sweet
er. Crawfordville is proud of her
promising songstress and owes a
debt of gratitude to her teacher, Miss
Dußois.

THE APOSTLES' CONFIDENCE IN
u GOD.
Lesson for August 7, 1892.
Schiptvre Lesson: Acts 4:19-31.
Motto Text.—“ They spake the
word of God with boldness.”
introduction.
The council saw that they had no
ground upon which to condemn Pe
ter and John; but to discharge them
and permit them still to preach in
the name of Jesus would be admit
ting the truthfulness and righteous
ness of the Christian doctrines, and,
therefore of the divine power and
existence of the Jesus they had put
to death. So they released the
apostles, but prohibited them from
preaching the Gospel any more, with
in case of disobedience.
They were afraid to punish them,
lest the people should resent it. by
mob violence. Unable, therefore, to
punish, they endeavored to silence
the the two apostles, on the pretext
that such men had no authority to
preach, and, especially, to preach
what was false. However, they
overrated their power, and under
rated the faith and firmness of the
apostles.
EXPLANATIONS.
I. The Apostles Released. 19-
22.—The answer made by the apos
tles to the prohibitory mandate of
council must have been a surprise;
for it was an open defiance of the
power of the Sanhedrin—a defiance
in indication of which the apostles
appealed to the consciences of the
judges themselves.
Vs. 19-20. “But Peter and John
answered and said to them, whether
it is right in the sight of God, to
hearken to you rather than to God>
do you judge. For we can not but
speak the things which we have seen
and heard.” They might decide for
themselves which was right for the
apostles to do—obey God or obey
the council: in tact they are invoked
to decide the matter “in the sight of
God.” But, as for the apostles,
there was only one course—they
cannot do otherwise than “speak the
things they had seen of Christ and
heard of Christ. Conscientiously
they were bound to do so, and they
did not wish the council to imagine,
even temporarily, that they would
do otherwise. They could not be
false witnesses to their Lord and
Master; and they had no idea of obey-
> ing the council. Nevertheless the
. council satisfied itself with threaten
i ing them again and releasing them,
; as they could find no good excuse
for punishing them. For there stood
the cured man! And there stood,
also, the populace, friendly to those
who cured him. And of “the peo
ple the council was afraid.
11. The Return to Their
Friends 23-28.—“ And being let
go,” or released, “they went to their
own company”—to the assembly
place of the disciples or Christians,
to whom they “reported all (that) the
chief priests and elders had said unto
them.” And it betokened coming
; violence and pursecution—danger
and death. Still, all that was in
vain so far as preventing the triumph
of the Gospel was concerned. Os
| that they felt confident, and there
fore, they feared not and cared not
what man might do unto them. They
intended to keep on doing the
‘right.” In united prayer they quote
a prophecy David made a thousand
years years before, foretelling the
failure of Christ’s enemies, and ap
plying it to the trial and death of
Jesus. The quotation is from Psalm
2:1-2.
“Why did the heathen rage, and
the people imagine vain things? The
kings of the earth stood up, and the
: rulers were gathered together
| against the Lord, and against his
I Christ. For of a truth against thy
holy child Jesus, whom thou hast
I anointed,, both Herod, and Pontius
Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the
I people of Israel were gathered to
gether.” And yet their wickedness
but carried out God’s purposes, as
we see in verse 28. What his
“hand”—power and “council”—pur
pose—“determined”—foreordained,
to come to pass. Acts 2:23; 3:18!
Isa. 10:5-7. God overruled their do
; ings to accomplish his purpose.
I Therefore, by citing this prophecy,
the disciples showed their confidence
in God and in the success of his
cause, for which they were perse
cuted; for the prophecy declares that
the Gospel was certain to triumph,
notwithstanding opposition and per
secution.
111. Prayer for Boldness. 29-
31.—They then, looking forward to
a continuance of Gospel labor, in
| spite of persecution, to ask God to
I grant them boldness, in preaching the
Gospel; and they beg God to coun
tenance and witness to their labors,
by enabling them to perform mira
cles. This will help them by au
thenticating their divine mission,
i and show that they were authorized
Ito speak for him. (John 3:2.) To
I assure them that their prayer was
[ heard and that they might rely on
: God’s power, the house was shaken
: miraculously, and they were “filled
with the Holy Ghost”—and, there
fore, endowed with courage and pow-
er.
