Many are be ing led to the “Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world.” Meeting continues through this week. Bro. Smith, from Griffin, was with us this morning, glad to have you brother. His church is in a prosperous con dition. The average attendance of the Sabbath School is forty-three. Dr. J. Wm. Jones has been on a visit to Nashville, Tenn. While there he preached to our African brethren of the First Baptist Church. His address was on the plan of salvation, and was listened to by’ fifteen hundred persons. Pastor H. McDonald, Second Church was sick and no service held at his church. Dr. S. G. Hillyer has resigned the pastorate of the church at Clarkston. lU'iw. Rev. Thomas J. Shipman has ac cepted the care of Duffy St. Baptist Church, Savannah. Since his gradu ation at the Seminary he has been pastor at Midway Ky. The whole of Elkhorn Association loved him. There is no young preacher in Ken tucky more consecrated or more widely, beloved than T. J. Shipman. Bro. J. L. R. Barrett resumed his work at Chestnut St. Baptist Church, Gainesville, Ga. Oct, 2nd.

Hornady is located at No. 37, East Harris St., Atlanta Ga., at which place his correspondents arc requested to address him for the pi esent. Ilis condition is somewhat im proved, and there are hopes of his recovery. He bears his affliction with fortitude and patience. Adairsville. —A “tent meeting” conducted by some Methodists seems to have done our cause some good here. Thirty-five of the converts have united with the Baptist Church, and they were baptized by Rev. A. S. Tatum, the former pastor, who re cently resigned. Rev. E. B. Barrett has been called to succeed him. Rev. J. C. Newan says; I arrived in Florida and began iny pastorate in Palatka the first of Oct. The good brothers and sisters opened their hearts and homes to us and gave us a most hearty welcome. Since my comeing I have had the pleasure of receiving three into the church. The work here seems to be in good con dition the members of the church warm hearted and zealous. Marietta.—The church here holds on to the bad, or at least ques tionable, habit of calling the pastor annually. Rev. J. A. Wynne has just received the call for the third year of what has proved to be a very sucessful pastorate. Why not make the call indefinite ? The an nual call tends to restlessness both in the ministry’ and the churches. Rev. B. B. Sargent of Waltorn County, and pastor of New’ Salem Church, Cobb County., Ga., for two years past, has resigned on account of the distance from his home. Bro. A. H. Talley’ writes us that he is an excellent preacher, and good Moderator, and faithful pastor. The Church gives him up with much re luctance and high commendation. A protracted meeting held during the summer resulted in ten additions by’ baptism, to the church. Penfield.—Owing to the dis tance and inconvenience of reaching the church, Rev. W. 11. Strickland has resigned here to take effect at end of the year. He will have a Sunday at his disposal and can ac cept a church for one Sunday and Saturday before, in the vicinity of Atlanta, or on any railroad leading out of Atlanta. His post-office ad dress is Decatur. Carnesville.—Rev. J. F. Goode has been called to both old and new Carnesville churches for next year. He has accepted the call and will move here soon. Bro. Goode is an earnest, faithful worker an a preach er of great pow’er. While each church is loth to give up its respec tive pastor, Bros. Beck and Wooten, yet all concede that pastoral W'ork is badly needed in our midst. Griffin.—The ordination services of Bro. Bryan W. Collier, who has been called to the pastorate of the, D.ahlonega Church, were held last Sunday. The Presbytery consisted of Brethren J. D. Stewart of Griffin, W. 8. Rogers of Barnesville and W. H. Pritchard of Atlanta. Bro. Rog ers preached the ordination sermon and Bro. Pritchard preached atnight. Bro. Daniel has now been lying in a critical condition for four weeks and his condition is not materially changed. Fall business is opening very auspiciously in Griffin. Riddleville.—The Mt. Vernon Association convened with Nail’s Creek Church, in Jefferson County, the 6th, 7th and Bth insts. Rev. A. L. Brantly was re-elected modera tor. The Index and Orphans Home were represented by that ven erable and amiable soldier who re ports from Whitehall Street. Mercer came in for a share in the person of Rev. T. J. Holmes. The Finance Committee report over S4OO for missions and other objects. T. J. Beck D. D., preached a most ex cellent sermon on missions. Camilla.—Elder J. L. Under wood has been engaged by the Tif ton Church to supply the pulpit on the second and fourth Sundays while the pastor, Dr. C. M. Irwin, is in North Georgia on a sick furlough. His voice is his chief trouble. A kind friend of the church has given a beautiful set of chandeliers to the church. The pews to cost five or six hundred dollars will soon be put up. Bro. Irwjn has done splendid work in organizing the church. Tifton is a beautiful growing town and a very important point. The State Board was wise in looking to it. Mallory Association meets at Lim ner next week. Old Evergreen has renewed call to Elder J. L. Underwood. Camilla church has called Rev. Mr. Feazell, of Alabama. On Saturday last (the Bth inst.) the church at Sardis in Hart county, according to previous appointment ordained two new deacons for said church. The brethren chosen were Bro’s. A. J. McMullan and Thomas G. Craft. Bro. John M. Parks having been received as a deacon at a pre vious meeting. By invitation Rev. J. T. W. Ver non was present and preached a very impressive and instructive ser mon on the subject from the text found in 1 Tim. 3 chap. 9 verse. THE CHRISTIAN INDEX: THURSDAY. OCTOBER 20. 1892. “Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.” The Presbytery was composed of the following, viz: Rev. J. R. Earl, J. T. W. Vernon and J. H. McMill ian also Bro. Ira F. Myers and N. J. Tiller deacons of Cedar Creek Church. After the ordination Rev. J. R. Earl and J. H. McMullan made very appropriate talks on the subject of church organization, and church work. Very respectfully, M. M. Richardson. MERCER SUBSCRIPTION NOTES. It will be gratifying to the friends of Mercer ,to learn that the liber al brethren, who subscribed to our endowment fund in order to secure the donation from the American Baptist Education Society, are be ginning to pay their second install ments. This is indeed very encour aging, and makes us hope that the collections will be good all over lhe field, all along the line and all through the season. The installment is not due until the first day of No vember, and yet some are sending the money to pay it now. Such liberality in subscribing and such promptness in paying is more than we bargained for, though it is not more than we can stand. To all who have sent in their money, we make our grateful acknowdedgments, and and to all the others we send a mild suggestion, that we are able to think of them j ust as kindly and w’e hope they will, at an early day, bring us under similar obligations. We have mailed to each subscrib er a notice of the installment which will be due in a few days, and trust where mistakes have been made that the brethren will be lenient, and help us in the spirit of kindness to cor rect them and where the statements are right, it is hoped that every one will make a prompt and cheerful re mittance. Brethren, you made us happy with your subscriptions, now make us doubly so by paying them as they fall due. Some persons whose confidence in human nature had been shaken by hearing of unpaid sub seiptions said that many of these would never be paid. What a splendid opportunity you now have to restore such an unbeliever to the faith, and you will be recreant to the highest dictates of humanity, to say nothing of the simple requirements of Christianity, if you fail to recover your brother by thus discharging a plain duty and paying an honorable debt. You felt good when you made the subscription, now pay it and feel much better. If the promise was a pleasure, what a joy the payment will be ? G. A. Nunnally, Macon, Ga. A CONTRIBUTION FROM EVERY CHURCH. The Centennial Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention at its recent meeting at Louisville has de vised measures by which it is hoped to reach every pastor and every church, with the desire of obtaining from every church, and as far as pos sible from every member, a special contribution during this Centennial year. The committee is earnestly solic itous that State Committees and others who may have been placed in charge of Centennial work will co operate with them in the attainment of this end. In some of our states brethren are already perfecting arrangements to hold missionary meetings in every important city and town. The com mitee will be greatly gratified if ev ery church shall be visited by some brother whose heart is burning with the desire for Christ’s triumph and the world’s salvation to enlist their sympathy and their prayer and stim ulate their contributions. Wo ap peal to you, dear brother, to do what yon can to promote this great end. I. T. Tkhenor, for the Committee. Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 8, 1892. ATLANTA BAPTIBT~ ORPHAN'S HOME. A very pleasant entertainment was given at the Home on Friday evening, Oct. 18. It consisted of songs and recita tions, by the children, aided by a few grown up people. This enter tainment was followed by refresh ments. The admission fee was 25 cts., which yielded about SSO. This amount was increased by a handsome donation of SIOO, made by Mr. Elijah Brown. The Home is well managed, and a great blessing to the children who are cared for there. It deserves the moral and material support of the Baptists of Georgia. While it is under the controll of Baptists no worthy applicant is refused admis sion. In the Index of last week was an article, an editorial I presume, on “A Growing Evil.” An evil is either local or univer sal: it applies to a few parts of a system, or to every part. If apply ing to all our churches, and all our preachers, as the article in question assumes, why should there be any thing personal in the matter? The author of that article takes three preachers, unknown to fame, and holds them up before the de nomination, and as good as says: look at these fellows jumping, or preparing to jump, as so many Mon keys, or Kangaroos. To the first of two questions pro poundedin that article, I unhesita tingly answer, yes. I see nothing wrong in the Eufaula Church want ing a man in the “actual service” of another church. If the church there continues pastorless, and refuses to seek some one to “break unto them the bread of life,” soon it would be heralded to the world that the church is dead and worthless. How came the church then without a pas tor? A pastor in Georgia is called to his reward: his place was an im portant one, and must be filled by an important man: an active man, in “actual service” must be called. Vir ginia has the man; and Virginia wants a living man in “actual ser vice;” Alabama has that man, as Virginia thinks, and so Alabama wants a pastor. Where is the wrong? Take your men in the “actual ser vice” of Georgia churches, and how many of them are now where they began their work? Spurgeon’s long pastorate is often referred to as an argument for long pastorates! Did Spurgeon die in the service of his first church ? What does that oft quoted saying mean: “the right man in the right place? ” Saul’s armor was a misfit on David, so would David’s have been on Saul. Isn’t it the rule that these changes are upward ? God says to a man in the “actual service” of a church, “thou art ready’ for a higher posi tion, come and be ruler over many things.” That church says to another man : “you are the right man for this place’ come and fill it.” Where is the wrong ? To the second question, I answer, No. It can never be right to place a temptation before any pastor to do wrong. But the difficulty is to place the temptation. Whence did it come? In what did it consist? How could there bq a temptation in the case we are considering, in the light of a statement in one of the closing para graphs of that article? Does not the author thereof affirm that that pastor was infinitely removed from ignoble motives in preaching the gospel? There could no temptation then be placed before him, either by the Albany Church, or the church at Eufaula, and the question amounts to nothing. The article in question may place a temptation before churches, in the fine advertisement; given the three preachers. Men who are known to be “removed as far as possible from univorthy motives in preaching the gospel” may, for this very reason attract attention. In the dark the brightest stars are most observed. Truly Yours E. B. Carroll. KEEPING UP WITH THE PROCES SION. At the Centennial Mission service held by the West End Baptist Sun day-school on the first .Sunday in October, the contributions amount ed to about $65. This is among the youngest schools about Atlanta, and is backed by a membership of about 160. This is a magnificent showing and is far above the average of any other Sunday-school yet heard from, tak ing into consideration the number of church membership. But no ono knowing the people of the West End Church are surprised, for they always keep right up with the pro cesssion if not just a “leetle” ahead, in every enterprise for the benefit of humanity or for the advancement of God’s cause on earth. If any school did better than the West End Bap tist on this occasion the West End Baptist school would like to know it. E. P. Thwing, M. D., wife and daughter, have started for China as missionaries, at their own expense. Among his plans is the completion of arrangements for the erection of the first insane asylum that China has had. A son, a minister, and his wife go out also, under the auspices of the Presbyterian Board. OLD AND GRAY-HEADED. Ours in Alabama deserves some notice, as they are quite numerous among our ministry. We mention them somewhat in the order of precedence: Jefferson Falkner, A. N. Worthy, Pitt Callo way’, A. J. Waldrop, J. H. Foster, E. B. Teague, W. Wilkes, . Mur- phree. Judge Falkner of Montgomery? has been abundant in labors, through a very long life, supporting himself in part, all the time, by the practice of law, while efficiently serving churches. He is well preserved, still intellectually vigorous, though an octogenarian. His life has been spotless, his ministerial office unblem ished, albeit sometimes in the legis lature. Dr. Worthy, has had a similar pol itical career, and equally maintained his ministerial integrity and love of the gospel. The same is to be said of the beloved Calloway. No one has done more to honor the ministry and the cause of the Master. He belongs to the great Baptist family of the Georgia Calloways, so prolific of good ministers of Jesus Christ. These all are South Alabamians. A. J. Waldrop has always resided in North Alabama, and expended his ministry in the region about what is now Birmingham. He was long time a county official, supplement ing a modest income in that way, noted for official integrity and faith ful ministerial integrity and faithful ministerial labor. The churches founded and built up in that region arc, and will be bis monument. J. H. Foster, D. D., on account of fee ble lungs, has given his life largely to educational work, as professor of mathematical science in the univer sity’ of Alabama. He is a very able minister, always heard, when his strength allows, with unusual atten tion. From bis youth be has been distinguished for judgment and wis dom, deferred to by his brethren, not less for gracious dispositions than wisdom. Dr. Wilkes is still vigorous in body and mind, and preaches with energy and fire. He has left his mark on all the region about Selma, and later in the upper country. He has perhaps baptized more people than any of his contemporaries in the state, having conducted a great many protracted meetings, all over the country. Bro. Murphree, not sure about the spelling of his name not known so well to us, has been heard of through a half century, as stable in character, sound in doc trine and devoted to his work, a faithful and beloved witness for the Master. The whole number have work in them yet, most of them good physi cal strength, showing no signs of mental decadence, but merely a de gree of falling off in activity’. Their brethren value them for their wide experience, and often call upon them for the discussion of impor tant questions. E. B. Teague. Dear Index:—On Monday last the Baptist Middle Association closed a very harmonious and profitable session. The association met with Jackson’s Church, Scriven County. The church was named in honor of Rev. G. L. Jackson, now one of the oldest and most honored ministers of the association, who was present to enjoy the sessions of the body and aid us with his counsel. The officers elected were, Rev. R. G. Costin, Moderator, Rev. IT. J. Ar nett, Clerk, and T. A. Brewer, Treasurer. The church is within two miles of the old home of Dr. G. R. McCall, who was present, greeting old friends and new nieces and nephews, and representing-Dr. Gibson. Besides other stirring and instructive talks he gave us a warm gospel sermon on Sunday afternoon and closed with a collection for missions. As a result of the day’s collections, he left with S7O in his pockets. In Dr. Gibson’s absence we shall be glad for him always to send the same substitute. G. W. 11. Guyton, Oct. 14th, 1892. The statement of Dr. Merrill, U. S. consul to Jerusalem, that there are but 42,000 Jews in Palestine, is called in question by a missionary of the Free Church of Scotland, Rev. W. Ewing, who asserts that the He brew calender gives the number at 89.000, while there are well inform ed persons who think that 100,000 would bo nearer the actual number. It Is the habit of the Jews them selves to understate their numbers, as it has a very important bearing on the amount of taxes that they pay the government. ADAIRSVILLE MISSIONARY BAP TIST OHUROH. Resolved, that as Elder A. S. Ta tum has resigned our church to visit Florida and perhaps other states, that as he has been a citizen amono’ o us most of the time, for near 20 years and that- he is a citizen every way deserving, as a minister of the gospel, able and faithful, whose la bors have been abundantly blessed wherever he has been in charge of churches or preached the Gospel. Resolved, that we cheerfully re commend him as such wherever he may travel or locate among any people. Resolved that a copy of these re solutions be presented him, and that The Christian Index be requested to publish the same. Signed by or der of conference. W. King, Moderator. N. C. Anderson, Clerk.

Tatum baptized thirty-three new members into the Adairsville church at his last meetins. <5 Program for the General Meeting of the Baptist Middle Association to be held at Red Bluff church, Octo ber 30th and 31st. 1.

FIRST GUN FROM MARYLAND. The report comes from Eutaw Place Church, Baltimore, Md. On Sunday, Oct, Bth. $15,000, was raised by that church for the centen nial fund thank offering. It is quite certain that the boom will be re inforced by SSOOO more from the other churches in Baltimore, makingj altogether, $20,000. If other states do as well, the amount fixed for the centennial fund will be largely exceeded. Dr. Ellis, the pastor of Eutaw Place Church, has reason to rejoice and the Index rejoices with him and calls upon Georgia Baptists to emulate this noble example of Chris tian liberality. Mistranslation of Scripture, real or imaginary, moves one of the news paper critics to dip his pen in ink, or gall, and to say, among other things, that -‘St. Paul’s exploded word, ‘obey,’ in the marriage cere mony, needs the priming knife of translators.” Os course, this critic would hardly define “translating” as “cutting a word out of a book when you do not like it,” Ins lan guage admits of no other meaning ; and this, in fact, is what he himself does with Paul’s word, in his way of “interpreting” it, which, among men of his school, is a very common way and answers well to the defi nition. As to exploding any word of Paul’s it needs first that we ex plode Paul himsel; and this cannot be done until Christ Jesus, the Son of God, is first exploded. The man who attempts it will share the fate of the poor unfortunates who have blown themselves in pieces with the dynamite with which they prepared to blow buildings up. The Presbytery of New York last Monday resolved to begin the trial of Dr. Briggs, November 9, and to continue until it shall be completed.
