saintly face of Dr. E. W. Warren.
The church has given a unani
mous call to her pastor for another
year.
Statesboro. —We have just en
joyed an unusually pleasant and
profitable meeting here. Differen
ces between brethren have been
settled. Many have been converted
and joined the churches. Law suits
have been settled outside of the
court house, and bitter hate has given
place to brotherly love. Much good
has been done and the Lord bo
blessed for the result.
Dr. J. B. Coomb has organized a
Sunday School at Millford school
house, and is doing a good work for

met at Forsyth last week, had a
pleasant and profitable session,
though the attendance was small and
several churches not represented.
Rev. R. D. Mallory was chosen
Moderator and Rev. A. J. Cheves
Clerk, both made efficient officers.
The discission on missions was ear
nest and instructive, and will no
doubt bring forth fruit. The con
tributions were abont §IOO short of
the amount sent up last year. Able
sermons were preached by brethren
Cheves, Moncrief and Scorboro. A
forward movement was taken with
reference to home evangelization.
The next session meets at Perry.
Ben e vole nce .- —The Chattahoo
chee Musical Convention held its
annual session here last week. Bet
ter vocal music is seldom heard than
that rendered by this convention
during the days of its session. The
church and community were delight
ed and benefited by the labors of
these excellent men.
I have resigned the care of New
Bethel Church Terrell Co., in com
pliance with their wish. They and
myself thinking a change of Pastors
would be best for the church. I move
this week to my farm in Terrell Co.
Henceforth my post office will be
Dawson, Ga.
The scheme, set on foot Arch
bishop Ireland, for Romanizing the
public schools in Faribault, Minn.,
has been defeated by a recent elec
tion at which the old school board
that had adopted the Archbishop’s
scheme was turned out. A corres
pondent of the Interior at Stillwater,
where the same attempt was made
utters these words of warning: “In
Stillwater, too, we are discovering
from efforts which are known to be
in operation for the possible recovery
of what has been lost there that
Archbishop Ireland, despite his too
much protested loyalty to American
institutions, is the most dangerous
prelate in the United States. Os all
the Romans he is the Brutus.”
Pastor W. W. Arnold at Richland,
Ga., and his family were very hap
pily surprised recently by the mem
bership and quite a number of citi
zens gathered at his home, and
bringing many substantials and
luxuries for the table, and numerous
articles for family use. Both pastor
and his family, the receiving party,
and the good brethren and sisters,
the donors, were possessed with joy
ful hearts and bright faces, when all
had met face to face. It is these
occasions which brighten life and
make us happy. We are glad to
note that Bro. Arnold is doing good
work in his new field, and is highly
appreciated by his ilocd.
EEV. W. H. STRICKLAND.
Our pastor, bro. Strickland has
served us well and faithfully, giving
general satisfaction and wo recalled
him unanimouly last meetings but he
declines on account of the distance
and inconvenience, having to make
160 miles every round trip-we have
now called bro. F. J. Sims, it is un
derstood that ho will accept. Bro
S. is an able minister of tho Now
Testament, and wo commend him
to any church desiring a pastor con
venient to Atlanta or on Railroads
leading out of Atlanta. Any church
calling him will be pleased with him,
tis a long time since we have had an
abler preacher. John D. Sims,

THE CHRISTIAN INDEX: THURSDAY. OCTOBER 27. 1892.
MEEOEK ASSOCIATION.
This Association has recently held
its nineteenth annual session with
the church at Cairo, fourteen miles
West of Thomasville on the Alabama
Midland railroad. It was one of
the most delightful sessions of this
large and strong body.
The churches were well represent
ed and splendid reports were made
from them through their letters.
Brother J. G. McCall of Quitman,
the layman theologian was again
made moderator, and bishops T. A.
White, assistant moderator. Brother
W. T. Gauldcn efficiently filled the
clerk’s position with brother W. B-
Roddenbury as his assistant. Pas
tor J. M. Ruskin preached the intro
ductory sermon from John 12 :32*
This being the Centennial of Mod
ern Missions he* directed our minds
on the line of missions and preached
an earnest sermon.
The letters showed an increase in
very nearly all the churches, there
being more than three hundred ad
ditions by baptism alone. There
seems to be an awakening all along
the line.
Dr. Nunnally was present to rep
resent Mercer University, As usual
he delivered a stirring address on
the subject of education in general
and an earnest plea for the dear old
University. But he was exceeding,
ly modest in his demands for finan
cial help. Dr. G. R. McCall repre
sented the State Mission Board and
preached a sermon of great power
on the love of Christ.
The afternoon session of the soc
and day was utilized in a series of
mission addresses in commendation
of the Centennial of missions. The
following brethren )taking part;
I*. 11. Murray, Jno. T. Eden, W. B.
Bennet, A. P. Ashurst, T. A. White*
D. 11. Parker and J. G. McCall.
Brother McCall’s speech is worthy
of special mention, and was request
ed by the Association for publica
tion in the Index. The writer be
speaks for it a careful reading. The
subject is The Relation of Modern
Civilization to Missions.
The Association spoke with no
uncertain sound on the subject of
temperence.
Correspondents were appointed to
the neighboring Associations and
the South Georgia Convention, and
delegates were elected to the State
and Southern Baptist Conventions.
The Executive Committee has
been doing such good work for sev
eral years that no destitution is re
ported within our bounds.
Brother F. M. Groover was re
elected treasurer, than whom a more
efficient one cannot be found.
The good people of Cairo were
royal in the entertainment of their
visitors.
We meet next year with pastor
Murray and bis church at Valdosta.
Taken all together this was one of
the most enthusiastic and harmo
nious sessions of the Mercer Asso-
ciation.
Bro. J. F. Reeves represented the
Index and did good work. E,
A recent “Daily” had something
to say about the boys who were go
ing to college this Fall from Atlanta.
In the list several colleges were to re
ceive accessions from Atlanta both in
this and other .States except Mercer*
Not one was reported for Mercer.
How is this? Are there not Baptist
boys in Atlanta? Are there no fami
lies in Atlanta who are Baptists and
and have denominational pride ? If
Georgia Baptists do not patronize
Mercer who will ?, Are not Atlanta
Baptists Georgia Baptists ? Is Mer
cer unworthy? Can she ever be
made worthy by neglect? If some
brother should desire to answer these
questions it might be a good idea to
do it.
There are giants in the ministry of
Atlanta. Princely merchants, dis
tinguished jurists and statesmen to
gether with a host of noble Baptist
men and women who could make
Mercer the pride of tho denomina
tion. It is said that Mercer Univer
sity is the baptist college of Georgia
but unless there is a decided change
it is untrue. It is tho college of part
of the Baptists of Georgia.
The Congo State has made a brill
iant point. Its representative, M.
Van den Kerchhove, has made his
way with a force of several thousand
men up tho Welle River, an over
land to Wadolai on the Nile, Emin's
old capital. It is likely now that
this centre will bo held permanent
ly, either by England, within whose
“sphere of influence” it falls, or by
the Congo State. But the matter of
present importance is that M. Van
den Kerchhove has made a road di
rectly across the path of tho mid-
Africa slave-hunters, and established
ou it a system of armed patrols. It
is the beginning of the end of slave
hunting in Central Africa, and of
the supremacy of Arab power there.
—Watchman.
THE EBENEZER ASSOCIATION.
This body closed its session a t
noon on Friday last. Rev. W. S.
Ramsey was elected Moderator,
Judge H. F. Carswell Clerk, Dr. W.
A. Thomas Treasurer. Brother Ram.
sey said the Assaciation never held a
more pleasant and profitable session,
though the contributions fell short of
those last year by about 840,00.
Brother T. C. Boykin was received
as Sunday-school Evangelist and re
presenting the State Board.
Brother G. R. McCall was present
and preached a splendid sermon, af
ter which a collection of $14.50 was
taken up for indigent ministers.
The various reports were ably dis
cussed, and there seemed to be a
determination on the part of preach
ers and laymen to “go forward” in
Missions and other departments of
church work. The pastor, Brother
R. C. Sanders and his people worked
hard to make the Association a suc
cess, and they succeeded. Brother
Sanders did his part most admirably,
and brought this reporter and the
Christian Index under special ob
ligations to him. He is a good pas
tor and an able preacher. Among
the rising young preachers of this
Association is Rev. J. C. Solomon
who has a clear head, a warm heart
and on eloquent tongue.
Among the preachers present, who
for a longer or shorter time, have
been useful and honored members of
the Association are the Harps, father
and son, Coates, Oliver, Ramsey and
Kelly.
There are a number of laymen
whose voices are often heard and
who wield a strong if)fluence in the
body. For many years Dr. G. R*
McCall was Moderator of the Ebe
nezer, and his visits arc always great
ly appreciated by his brethren, who
hold him in high esteem.
The lack in this Association, as in
many others, is the failure to make
regular Missionary contributions dur
ingjthe year. While the amount sent
to the Association is gratifying, it
does not fully express the liberality
of the churches. It is hoped and
believed that there will be an im
provement in this direction during
the coming year.
The Missionary Svii’Aou by Broth
er George Thorp was excellent and
showed evidences of thoughtful pre
paration. The address to the minis
ters by Brother Coates was a gem.
Time and space forbid the mention
of other good things, including the
subscriptions to the Index, and the
abundant hospitality of the communi
ty. Brother A. B. Jones and family
made it delightful for their guests.
T. C. B.
To the Hiawassee Association now
in session at Bell Creek.
Dear Brethren :—For fifty years
I have kept pace with the Associa
tion, and for many long years as a
minister I have endeavored to rep.
resent its dearest interest and main
tain its respectability. Allow me to
say from a sincere heart that I feel
no abatement of interest in this great
and grand cause of the Divine Mas
ter and especially in the great Cen
tennial work now in progress.
Trusting that your deliberations
may be directed by the hand of the
great Master. Pray for your broth
er in deep affliction. Yonrs in
Christ. Alfred Corn.
Tho above letter was received
during the late session of the Hia
wassee Association. At the same
time it was reported that this dear
old soldier was critically ill.
More than a half century ago this
veteran entered tho service, preach
ing by interpretation to the Inkians.
Only two or three of his comrades
remain. Noble men ! God bless
them. Their lives arc spared to
strengthen us.
Rev. Dr. Blnik ie, of Edinburgh,
was the President of the Council of
tho Reformed Churches, and his
term expired with the late meeting
at Toronto. His successor in tho
president’s chair is the Rev. Dr.
Talbot W. Chambers, of New York
City, a fine representative of that
noble Church, which was planted in
this land by the good men from Hol
land who founded the State of New
York. —Presbyterian Observer.
It is said that Mr. Moody is ar
ranging to have visitors from va
rious parts of the world to the
World’s Fair, Chicago, next year,
hear the gospel preached, everyman,
in his own tongue. It will, if suc
cessful, be a soi t of repetition in
one respect of what transpired on
the day of Pentecost. Let all Chris
tians pray for the out-pouring of tho
Holy Spirit on the hearers.
‘•KEEPING UP WITH THE PRO
CESSION.”
In the Imdex of October 20, there
appeared an article with the above
title concerning the Centennial con
tribution of the West end Baptist
Sunday School. After saying that
the school on that day contributed
$65, it was added that if any school
had done better, West End would
like to know it.
For the information of West End
and any other schools that may be
interested,*! desire to say that the
Hawkinsville Baptist School on
“Centennial Day” contributed $145.
The school numbers about 200.
West End can make the calculation
and see if she is still “just a ficelle’
ahead.”
The Woman’s Missionary Society
of our church held a Centennial ex
ercise, October 6, and made a thank
offering amounting to $165. South
Georgia is not turning a deaf ear to
the crying needs of the times.
T. W. O’Kelly.
The health of Mrs. Harrison, the
wife of the President, continues to
decline, and the indications are that
she will not live long. The Presi
dent devotes all the time he can
spare from his necessary official du
ties in attendance upbn her. He
gives little heed to the grand cele
brations and political excitement of
the day. The sympathy of every
good citizen, and, especially, of all
Christian people, go out to him and
his family in their affliction.
CAVING IN
Just as s rotten tenement collaps
es when too great a weight or strain
is brought to bear upon its upper
floors, so does a puny physique col
lapse and cave in when subjected to
the strain ofjdisease which must come
sooner or later if it is not reinforced
and built up. Hostetter’s Stomach
Bitters is of immmense service to
the debilitated, the nervous and
the dyspeptic, because it strengthens
and prevents them from caving
in* It is no necessary to have the
biceps of a Samson to be healthfully
vigarous. Many slendor apparently
frangil and undersized people enjoy
phenomontal health. Vigor means
the ability to digest, sleep and eat
well. This power Hostetter’s Stom
ach Bitters will confer. It will, be
sides, cure malaria, bilious, rheuma
tic and kidney ailments, mitigate the
infirmities of age and overcome ner
vousness.
There is a project on foot to con
nect Chicago with Mississippi by a
canal 18 feet deep, 180 feet wide at
bottom, and 200 feet wide at top.
Fed by Lake Michigan, it would not
only add greatly to the sanitary con
dition of Chicago, but would put
that city among the first shipping
stations of the world.
Thoughts.
Maybe the kiss of the world has left
blisters of sorrow on yonr iip and life;
well, let me give the cure, the same as
others have tried with success. The
balm of Gilead, the love of Jesus and
grace of God. I’ve been watching of
late the effects of God’s remedy on
broken hearts and lives, and so sweet
has been the outcome that I want you to
try it.—Christian Herald.
Why should I start at the plow of my
Lord, that maketh deep furrows on my
soul? I kppw he is no idle husbandman;
he purposeth a cr<q>.—S. Rutherford.
We have renounced reason as our in
structor in the knowledge of religious
truth. We have done it the highest
honor, when we sought, as it commands
us, a more authoritative and surer guide.
—Rev. A. L. Gordon.
We often hear Christian persons com
plain that they cannot love the Saviour.
That is a common complaint, but there
is one easy cure for it. The more you
live with Christ the better you love him.
—C. H. Spurgeon.
How great is God, who can under
stand even the most imhittered and
soured disposition, to which no human
being cun find the key, and although it
is no longer in relations of love to any
one, can yet bring it into relations of
love and confidence to himself.—Rothe.

lie flint will often place this world and

Adam began ruin by eating; Christ re
demption by fasting.—St. Jerome.
Thousands come to me for help. How
foolish! Why not go to God. It was
he who said, “Fear not, I will help thee,”
and behind the promise was the strength
of omnipotence.—Christian Herald.
I have lived to see every one of my
most cherished hopes one after another
disappointed, and to see that it was bet
ter so.—Alexander Mackay, of Uganda.
Unbelief is departure from the living
God. How simple is this! So long as
yon trust God you are near him. The
moment you doubt him your soul lias
departed into a strange country. Faith
is the link between God’s fullness and
st rength and onr emptiness and weak
ness.—Dr. Saphir.
Though the persons who approached
our Lord manifested a variety of differ
ent virtues, yet faith is the only grace
which he is wont to commend.- Bengel.

' LIGHT THROUGH CONFESSION.
■low the Blessing of Christian Religion
May Be Obtained.
In a largo city I noticed an old man
who had remained through the first and
second meetings and was standing as
though ho were hesitating whether to
leave the room or to tarry in order to
confer with others. I asked a gentle
man who was then my associate to speak
to him, and approaching him he said,
“My friend, are you a Christian?”
The old man said: “No sir, I am not a
Christian, but I want to be. I have been
trying all my life to find out how to bo
a Christian, but I have not been able to
receive any satisfaction in connection
tpith my endeavors in that respect. I
have been to church all my life, and
read the Bible. 1 have attended meet
ings like these, and yet have received no
light as to what I need to do in order to
be a Christian. When Mr. Moody was
here several years ago I attended almost
all his meetings and talked with him
and others personally, and when the
meetings were done I was as far away
as ever. Now I don’t suppose it is of
any use, but I would be very glad if you
would tell me what I need to do in order
that I might become a Christian.”
My friend said to him, “Have you
ever confessed Christ with your lips?”
The old man said, “No; I was wait
ing to become a Christian before I
should do that.”
My friend said to him, “That is just
the way to become a Christian,” and
quoted a passage upon that point from
the tenth chapter of Romans, and said,
“I believe yon need to commence to
night with an open acknowledgment of
Christ as your master.”
The old man said, “It is too late to do
it tonight, for the service has been dis
missed.”
My friend looked about the room,
where there may have been ten persons
tarrying, and said, “Suppose you con
fess Christ to these people who are now
in this room?”
After a moment’s hesitation the old
man walked down the room and held
out his hand to a gentleman whom he
knew, and said, “Mr W , I want to
confess Christ to you,” and then went
to others and said practically the same
thing. I think I was the last one to
whom he spoke that night, and I told
him not to let the adversary make him
think that he had not commenced tho
Christian life that night, but to count
the matter settled, and to think of him
self as a follower of Christ.
The next morning, when I came in to
tho 10 o’clock service, the old gentleman
was seated in the front seat, and with
him was another man about seventy-five
years of age. The first man came to
me and said:
“I have brought a friend to meeting
this morning. He is a little hard of
hearing. Will you please speak out so
that ho can hear, and be sure to say
something about confessing Christ?”
I said to him:
“Has the light como to you?”
And he said:
“Yes, aria I want my friend here to
confess Christ too.”
Before tho day was done the second
old man had risen in the meeting to ex
press his intention of being a follower
of Christ, and after that it was a joy to
see the two old men, side by side, with
their faces beaming with the satisfaction
that was brought to them by their new
life. I believe that what God puts first
wo need to put first also, and that there
is no greater aid to the faith of one who
would be a disciple than open acknow
ledgment of his intention to be a follow
er of Christa-Bev. B. Fay Mills in
