2 Rev. S. T. JAMESON, - - Editor, (West End, Atlanta. Ga.) Written for the Christian Inpex. 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. E. IL King, Ch’m’n B. T. 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 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.
