MILLED 6SVILLS,
Wednesday, October 15, 1873.
Business men, appreciating the advantages offered
by the Union Sc Recorder as an advertising medium,
hare crowded onr columns so that we have small
■pace left for reading matter. If this demand upon
our columns contii ues we will be ccrapi ded to issue a
double sheet, or increase our advertising rates. Par
readers are assured that onr arrangements shall be
such as will continue to give llu-in all the current
news of the week, and keep up tire interest cf this
journal as a family paper.
Protestantism, the true Church Mil
itant.
Exciting Scenes in the matings of the
Evangelical Alliance in A ftp York.
This Evangelical Alliance is an asso
ciation of Protestants of different de
nominations, in order, if possible, to
to promote a union of effort among
Protestants in Missionary efforts, and
also a union of effort in opposition to
the encroachments of Catholicism.
The Alliance has now existed for
more than a quarter of a century.
The first Convention assembled in
Free Masons’ Ilall in London, in 1846.
At the last general Convention held in
Amsterdam, in 1SG7, the New York
delegation invited them to hold their
next Convention in the city of New
York. Iu consequence of the Franco-
German war the Convention was post
poned until the present meeting.
This is the sixth general Council of
the Alliance, and the proceedings of
this Council show very conclusively
the objects of the leading actors in the
Alliance, and also that these objects
are not likely to be obtained ; nor, in
our opinion, are they desirable, if they
could be obtained. The prominent
object of the English divines seem
to be to unite all Protestants in one
great National Church, ami that
Church connected with and depend
ent on the Civil Government; in
short, for all Protestants to become
Episcopalians. For a confirmation of
this, it is only necessary to read the
speech of the Dean of Canterbury and
the Alliance paper read by the Rev.
Mr. Freemantle. All of these pointed
to and insisted upon a union of Church
and State. The Union insisted upon
by the Prussian Divines was, a union
of all Protestants in Germany with
the Lutheran Church, which is the
religion of Germany. These argu
ments in favor of a union of Church
and State, brought out the Rev. Dr.
Curry of Richmond, in favor of entire
religious freedom. This speech of Dr.
Curry touched the sympathy of the
vast audience who cheered and ap
plauded Dr. Curry to the echo, and
when the Chairman attempted to call
Dr. Curry to order and to stop hint
from speaking, the call for Curry in
the audience was so loud and boister
ous as to drown the voice of the Chair
man, and the meeting was finally dis
missed by singing. We believe these
Divines will find out that it is impos
sible to bring all the different denom
inations of Protestants into one
Church, and if it were practicable, we
do not believe it is desitable. As they
now exist, the different denominations
stimulate each other to greater efforts
in every thing great and good. They
also watch over each other and pre§
vent much of the corruption that soon
er or later creeps into a National
Church. The different denominations
are also the great conservators of civil
and religious liberty. If one denom
ination outnumbered all others, an am
bitious man by joining that denomina
tion might become dictator. Rut
whilst we have many denominations,
all of them will watch zealously over
their own rights.
As for the Dean of Canterbury’s
plan of uniting Church and iState, it is
offering a premium for hypocrisy, and
-the Rev. Dr. Curry touched the true I T, "‘ coulent8 of the Lond<>, » Quarterly for Jnlyare-
American feeling wh^n he denounced 1 Tlie Sta!e * f Eu « H ’ h . 1>oet ^ 2 - T,ie Cburcl1
it. We imagine the English Divines
will go home with a very strong im
pression that it is impossible at pres
ent to bring their American children
back into mother Church and State.
Wherever freedom of speech and the
freedom of the press is allowed, there
will be differences of opinion on the
subject of religion as well as on other
subjects. For a Government to step
in between a man’s conscience and his
God, and prescribe rules by which
each individual shall worship God, is
for the Government to become re
sponsible to God for each man’s con
duct; whereas, God holds each indi
vidual responsible to Him. “Rebold,
now, the axe is laid at the root of ev
ery tree, and the tree that bringetli not
forth good fruit sbuli be hewn down
and cast into the fire.” The tyranny
of the advocates of Church and State,
may be seen by the debate in the E
vangelical Alliance. Mr. Freemantle
of London, and the Dean of Canterbu
ry read papers in favor of the union of
Church and State; both gentlemen
advocated that doctrine, knowing that
it was contrary to the opinions of the
American people, but they were per
mitted, to give their opinions wilhout
interruption. Rut when Mr. Curry
gave the American view of the sub
ject, their feelings were hurt,, and the
Chairman was urged to call Mr. Cui-
ry to order. If these English dignita
ries of the Church did not watit this
discussion, why did they commence it.
The truth is, they did jiot wish to heiy
only one side—their own side—and
any man was out order w r ho differed
with them; their doxy "was ortlior-
<*OJfy ; the doxy of every Aiody else
was heterodoxy. We are glad Mr.
Curry gave the AmdVican side of the
question and the audience sustained
him, even if it did hurt the feelings of
(phurch and State magnates, .

have'a much weaker currency than Green
backs, viz: Certificates of Deposit. To have a faint
idea of what this new currency really is, we will sup
case like thousands of which are occurring
daily in Northern cities. A has a thousand dollars iu
Grcenbncks which he deposits in a bank : the bank
suspends; that is. refuses to let theii depositors have
back their own Greenbacks. A goes to the bank for
bis greenbacks, the Cashier tells him, “we have bus
pended, we can’t pay yon back your greenbacks. ’—
-Why can't you pay me my greenbacks?" says A.
“What has become of them ? "Oh,” says the Cashier,
“we have been speculating with your greenbacks in
Stocks and have lost them, bnt I will give you a cer
tificate of deposit, which will show that you once had
a thousand dollars which you deposited with us ”—
“But what good will this certificate do me so long as
the greenbacks are not there ?’’ says A. “Oh, you
can pass it as currency, and as long as it will pass it
is just as good as greenbacks.”
Audthia is. what.is passing as currency in many of
the cities. These certificates of deposit are in reality
evidences of tilings not there. 'Ihey are evidences
that such an amount of greenbacks were deposited in
the bank by A at a certain time, but tliey are also ev
idences that they are not there now, for then there
would be no necessity for tbe certificate, the green
hacks would speak for themselves. But these cci ti
tivates o." d.poeit must form a very diluted currency,
something like the celebrated Graham’s soup which
is said to have been made by boiling water under the
shadow of a chicken suspended over the boiler. It
may have been called soup, bnt it was too thin; so
c-eitificates of deposit, for greenbacks speDt and gone,
may be called money, but the devise is too thin.

meeting of the United Friends of Tent,
perance.
The Grand Council met on tbe 8th inst., in tbe city
of Macon.
From the official reports of officers we learn that
the order is increasing in numbers and influei.ee,
having already organized, in nine inonlhs, about lie
Councils. The Report of the Treasurer shows the fi
nancial condition to bo all right. Much important
legislation was enacted at the session, and every ne
cessary provision made to extend the Order.
An able Lecturer was selected and put in the field ;
the organ of the Order strengthened and made more
capable ol good work; a judicious system for depu
ties inaugurated.
This Older is purely a white man’s institution, nnd
Southern in all its characteristics. It has both the
pledge during membership and tbe pledge for life ; in
tending to unite under its broad wings, on equal terms,
ali orders of Temperance, whether they believe in
ons or the other.
The following officers were elected for the ensuing
year—
Col- C. P. Crawford, Grand Worthy Primate.
Col. T. \V. Parker, Gruud Worthy Associate.
Rev. F. A. Branch, G. W. C.
W.E.H. Searcey, G. S.
J. B. G. O'Neal, G. C.
Rev. W. W. Oslin, G. T.
E. A. Sullivan, G. S.
The meeting was perfectly harmonious, and with
the above efficient corps ot officers it is safe to say
that by the next Animal meeting the number of
Councils will be increased to five hundred. R.

Irwinton, Oct. IP, 1873.
We came hither from Milledgeville last Tuesday
the 7th inst. The journey over the Milledgeville
BranchR. R. was pleasant, as it always isundertlie
genial conductorship of kind Capt. Whiting. Thence,
from Gordon where we “rested” au hour, we came
rapidly to station No. 1“. We were surprised to find
that only one passenger train per day passes over the
renowned Ceutri.l R. R. each way in the calendar day
of 24 hours, and at the manifest deterioration in the
smoothness and elegance of the running condition of the
Road. This, and the amazing decline in the value of
stock iu the Road and in amount of dividends, con
strain us to suspect that there is some gross blundering
or something worse in the management of the com
pany's interests. We fear Mr. Wailley’s capacity,
sufficient perhaps, to Lave managed the old Central
R- U- from Savannah to Mucou passably well, is en
tirely incompetent to wield tbe larger interests which
this ambitious company seeks to grasp. If such io-
eompetency is not the cause of this depreciation,

From No Id on the Central It. It. we came hither
three miles, iu a comfortuble vehicle, driven rapidly
over a good road, arriving soon after ten o'clock. The
bright moonlight, and a delightful coolness of the at
mosphere, added to the charms of the journey. We
were soon abed; our bedfellow being a prominent
member of the Macon bar. He speedily talked us to
sleep (many thanks to him !)—an irresistible result of
monologne on weak minded mortals who are sleepy-
headed. To us a dose of Coleridge, that great Eng
lish master of “monologue”, would have been more
potent than three doses of Morphia! The old idea
that a good, conscience is a necessary promoter of sleep
is exploded now. Were it true who could slumber in
tliese most modem times ?
The Superior Court met on Monday laet, and we
find it here in the very heat and burden of business.
The term will continue two weeks, and an adjourned
term will l>« required to finish the business. It will be
held, probably in November or December. Two par
ties were tried on indictments for murder— ODe a negro
lad of 17 years of age who stabbed a negro woman
and was found guilty of manslaughter; the other a
tine looking white man named McRea who shot and
killed a m-gro man and who last evening was found
guilty of murder with recommendation to the mercy
ol the Court.
We find here Col. McKinley and Judge Furman of
Baldwin immersed iu business, und a number of other
distinguished members of the bar from other lo
calities Among these nro Hon. J. H. Blount and
t'o’s. Rutkeriora and Lofton of Macon, and Col. Evans
ol Sand raviHe. The last is a brother ot the gallant
Gen. Evans of the Confederate service who in 1802
gave the Yankees such a notable detent dear Lees

the good ‘L niou Sc Recorder” in the lianas of many
appreciative readers, and to see some additional sub
sci ibers place their names on its lists. On the whole,
we have had a deiightlul time here. We shall regret

Almost Every Case Cnrcd With
PAIN-KILLER!
De ir Sins:—During a residence of sense tea years
in Siam and China, as a missi nary, i loan I your
Pain-Killer a most valuable remedy for that tearful
scourge the Cholera.
In administering the medicine I found it most efiec-
tual to give a tea-spoontul of Pain-Killer in a gill of
hot water sweetened with sugar, then, after about
fifteen minutes, begin to give abont a tablespoonful of
the same mixtnre every few minutes UDtil relief was
obtained. Apply hot applications to the extremities.
Bathe the stomach with the Pain-Killer, clear, and
rub the limbs briskly. Of those who had the Cholera,
and took Ibe medicine faithfully, iu the way stated
above, eight out of tea recovered.
'".REV. It. TELFORD, Missionary in China.
Dear Sirs:—During a long residence in China 1
have used your valuable Pain Killer, both in my own
fami y and among the Chinese, and have found it a
most excellent mediciue. In the Summers of 1862
and 1863, while residing in Shanghai, I found it an al
most certain cure for cholera, if used in time. Indeed
using it in a great many instaneces, I do not remem
ber tailing iu asingle case. For three years. 1 have
been residing in this piace, more than hity miles from
a physician, and have been obliged often to fall upon
my own resources in cus< s of sickness. The Chinese
come to us in great numbers for medicine and advice.
Though without medical knowledge ourselves, the few
simple remedies we can commend arc so much in ad
vance even of their physicians, that we have almost
daily applications. We allow them to come, because
it brings us in contact with them and opens a door of
uselulness. In diarrlue, colic, vomiting, choiera,
coughs, etc., your Pain Killer has been my chief med
icine. Yours, very truly,
REV.T.P. CRAWFORD. Tungchow, China.
Those using Paiu Killer should sti ictly observe the
following directions:
At the commencement of the disease, take a t-a-
spoouful of Pain-Killer, iu sugar and water, and then
hath freely across the stomach and bowels with the
Pain-Killer clear. Should the diarrhea and cramp
continue, repeat the dost every fifteen minutes. Iu
this way Jthe dreadful scourge may be checked and
the patient relieved iu the course of a few hours.
N. B.—Bo sure and get the genuine article; audit
is recommended by those who have used the Pain-
Killer for the cholera, that iu extreme f cases the pa
tient take two (or more) teaspoontuU instead of one.
