Men of Baldwin County
Remember that on Wednesday, the
7th of October, is our election for a mem
ber of the Legislature. Are you all
ready for the question? The question
is one of vital importance to the people of
Baldwin! Will you send to the Legis
lature a man of great power and intelli
gence like Col. McKinley, who can be of
great benefit to every citizen, black or
white, in the county, or a colored man
who can be of no benefit to anybody?
The county expects us all to do our duty.
If we do that we shall come and work
and vote for Col. McKinley.
S&'Cotton has been coming into this
market pretty freely during the past week.
Our merchants have returned from North
ern markets, and are busy opening their
stocks of Fall and Winter goods—too
busy it seems to prepare advertisements.
They will probably find time to tell the
public what they have for sale by our next
issue.

County Representative*
We would earnestly impress on our
readers the importance of an energetic
“long pull, a strong pull, and a pull alto
gether to elect Col. McKinley as oyr
Representative in next Legislature. We
exhort the citizens of Baldwin County to
turn out to a man—come early to the
polls—and let us do a good day’s work
for the vital interests of the public. We
continue to hear the language of dispon-
dency uttered in regard to the restoration
of tho Capital to Milledgeville. This
arises from an honest misconception. IV e
know what we say when we declare that
we have the be$t of reasons for believing
the Capital can be restored to us, and
that Col. McKinley can effect more than
any other man in this direction. Let us
try him ; and we predict that fears will be
converted into triumph. But the Capi
tal question is not all. On the Conven
tion question, the Bond question, and all
other issues, Col. McKinley’s zeal and
unsurpassed ability to do the people of
our County and State the greatest good
are recognized by all We are informed
he has Republican opposition. A colored
candidate is in the field, it is said. Let
ua elect Col. McKinley for tho best in
terest of all our people, white and color
ed both.
Tho election takes place on >V ednesday

Editors Union tb Recorder:
I had the pleasure of accompanying
Col. M. J. Cofer to six of his appoint
ments. First at Montpelier Council, last
Saturday, where he made an address that
will long be remembered, making a strong
appeal to all to unite with us. He said,
no one can give a good excuse for not
being a member of our Council as a se*>
curity to prevent dissipation. No man
makes up his mind to be a drunkard, but
still there are many. If our rule was
universally adopted it would drive all dis
sipation from our land. When a man
wants a situation, the first question ask
ed is, does he drink ? If so, his brain
can not be clear for any business. Some
of our best men are not members and
others are hiding behind them. Would
there be as much business in our Conrts
if no liquor was drank ? Some ladies
are not with us; they do not drink but
are the sufferers, for at home the wife
and daughter cannot laugh it off. If the
ladies were all members men would be
sure to come and join. We have done
good in this county ; some families have
been made happy; how many more
would be if all were united in this cause.
At the close of the address five new
members were initiated into our Council.
Sunday we arrived at Friendship
Church in time to hear Rev. S. C. Leon
ard preach a very impressive sermon
from 2d Kings 20th chap, and part of
1st verse : ‘ Set thy house in order, for
thou shalt die, and not live.” These
words were spoken by the prophet Isiah.
He said we do many things that we know
are sinful, when God teaches us he will
punish for sin, whether of commission
or omission. Let a man be on his sick
bed and these words fall on his ear a
deep impression will be made on his
heart; but some are so hardened that
the spirit does not work on them, and
thus they pass into eternity. Your
preacher wishes to talk to you to-day
and get into your hearts; to-day you must
set your house in order, else you may be
too late, for you must die. God s ear is
always open to comfort the soul. What
is his account against you? are you
ready to answer? have you been faithful
to your duty ? If not, it is time. But I
fear when we look around we will find
many things not right. Build your house
on a good foundation. Have we lived
right since building our house? Have
you built an altar? Do you assemble
your children in family prayer ? Have
you been talking to those members who
have gone astray ? Go to that rebellious
house and teach them. Mothers should
build a monument to stand for future
generations. Let us do our work to-day
Look back at the many old people who J A good dining room and a kitchen have
B. T. Boater’s Talmage School.
A recent visit to this re organized in
stitution showed an amount of labor done
to put the buildings in thorough order
significant of the determination of Mr.
Hunter and the friends of the school to
make it achieve a decided success.
Rector Hunter and his family reside in
the main edifice known in former days as
the Thalian budding; and under the
same great roof will lodge, in the numer
ous rooms, all of the students whose
homes are too distant to enable them to
return daily to residences. The school
will thus be conducted on the Family-
School plan—the safest for the good
training of the pupils in moral and intel
lectual development It will be emphati
cally a Home School.
The scope of instruction to students
will be wide and varied, ascending
from the lower branches to those higher
elements of learning qualifying them for
entering advanced classes of Collegiate
instruction. Mr. Hunter by the bent of
his natural genius, as well as by his
thorough education and experience as an
instructor, will be found imparting to his
students practical lessons in Chemistry,
Mechanical Philosophy, Mineralogy, Ge
ology, and other departments of applied
science, such as are taught in the Agri
cultural and Mechanical colleges estab
lished under the Land-Scrip law of Con
gress. A working laboratory will be kept
in daily use for students; and a part of
their Gymnasium exercises will be sup
plied in the shape of labor with tools and
materials in the School Work-House. A
small printing-press is used to illustrate
tho actual working of affairs of this
“fourth estate of the realm,” in which
“proof-corrections,” and many other prac
tical matters of this nature may be learn
ed. A telegraphic apparatus will also be
provided, whore practical telegraphy
will be taught to students desiring such
knowledge.
With all these advantages, Talmage
School cannot fail to be a decided suc
cess—especially when it will be seen by
the advertisement in to-day’s paper that
the terms are as low as those of or
dinary Schools in our towns and vil
lages. Boarding in Mr. Hunter s family
where a good table is kept, costs only
$17 per month, with no charge for room
rent—the student supplying, his own
room with necessary furniture. “Half-
Boarders” are received at $10 per month
—those who go to their homes on Friday
afternoon, and return on Monday morn
ing, spending the entire school-week in
the institution. Pupils who board alto
gether out of the institution will of course
be received and charged for tuition alone.

be adamant if you are not moved in
heart after so much warning and influ
ence around you. God has been merci
ful to us. Let us set our house in order.
After an intermission of one hour and
lunch, the audience was called together,
and Col. Cofer took up the same subject,
and said we must set our house in order
in many ways. Temperance should be
taught to the whole household; if not,
no family can be happy. A social glass
may lead to ruin and premature death.
After an interesting address of one
hour, some thirty names were given, and
a meeting fixed for the first Saturday in
October to reorganize Friendship Coun
cil.
At Linton the Colonel lectured to
large and attentive audience, and seven
teen names were given to be initiated at
the next meeting. This addition was
very satisfactory to this, one of the most
zealous Councils in the State.
Monday, 3 o’clock, p. m., the Col. lec
tured to Union Council to some forty
persons, mostly members who appear to
be faithful. Others would not stop pick
ing cotton to come and only one new
member was received.
At Buffalo Council (Zebulon Church)
we had a very interesting audience
many respects. Col. Cofer, Rev. B. H
Sasnett and Rev. T. J. Adams made in
teresting and impressive speeches, enough
to satisfy all that intemperance was a
great evil. Mr. Adams said ho saw, in
his travels, a wonderful change, the social
glass at sideboards was entirely aban
doned, and it is getting to be unpopular
to see men going into bar-rooms, and he
hoped to live to see the time when they
will not ba patronized at all. Four names
were given to be initiated at the next
meeting.
In Sparta we had a fine looking and
intelligent audience. The Col. made one
of his best efforts to touch the hearts of
all, but they would not unite to aid in
this good cause—only one name was res
ceived. Most of the ladies were mem
bers, and the few others were strongly
appealed to, but could not be impressed
with the idea that they had any influence.
As anticipated, we had a pleasant time,
meeting with many friends; all giving
us a cordial welcome, and hope some
good has been done by our State Lectu
rer and the private lectures of
Baldwin.
been erected; and the grounds given over
to desolation, or at least to desertion, for
the past few years, will soon be fragrant
with flowers, and alive with ambitious
youths pressing forward up the Hill of
Science.
The elegant and substantial old Chapel
Building will ere long receive tho needful
repairs. We spent a few thoughtful min
utes in the now desolate study chamber
once occupied by the great and the good
Dr. S. K. Talmage; and Mr. Hunter (one
of his students in by-gone day s) related
some interesting anecdstes of him.
The Talmage School will open on to
morrow, the 1st day of October. Re
pairs and other preparations were push
ed forward with unconquerable energy by
Mr. R. H. Ramsay of Midway, himself
an able and experienced educator.
We should have stated in its proper
place that ample attention will be given
in the Talmage School to instruction in
the ancient languages, and in all other
branches included in the course pursued
in High Schools generally.

aK |he had been a faithful member of tho Baptist
Church almost 50 years And while all the Christian
graces were beautifully b'ended in her life, there were
3ome of these graces that shone with uncommon luster.
Her meekness was like that of Moses. She was “not
cosily provoked.” The even temper of her mind was
almost above disturbance. There are those who have
known her most intimately 40 years, who never saw
her angry. The son neither rose nor “went down on
her wrath.” Blessrd are the meek! It is a better
country than this they shall inherit—it is a heavenly |
conatry. .. .
Her charily thought do evil—spake no evil. Where
her toDguo could not praise it was chained. Kindness
dropped like honey from her month.
But patience wss the most remarkable of air her
traits. How patient is a iamb ! You may bind him,
and he will not resist you. You may bruise him, and
he will not open his mouth. You may lay bare Ins
bones, and lie will only turn his soft gentle, eyes
confidingly upon you. Such patience was hers.
In all her affliction-severe and protracted as
it was—she opened not her month. She turned her
trusting heart full up to the Savior and said : “Though
He slay me, yet will I trust in Him.” For more than
6 years she has been in the furnace but “the smell of
fire was not on all her garments.” “Our light afflic
tion which is but for a moment, worketh for us a tar
more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.”
Her pure, patient, lovely spirit was gently loosed
from its fetters of clay. Her long, faithful, beautiful
life closed in the serene splendor that became it.

Editors Union tfi Recorder :
We see in several papers, something
very commendable, as regards the color
ed people of Augusta, in endorsing the
nomination of Mr. Stevens for Congress.
We say hurrah for our colored friends in
Augusta, a right move, in the right way.
What a pity the rest of the colored race
won't do the same. The Democrats of
Georgia, and every other true State, are
the colored man’s friend, and his only
friend. If they will only vote a tnie and
honest Democratic ticket they will find
that an honest government, and unity
will unanimously prevail throughout this
once beloved land of peace. Come, col
ored friends, to the Polls, and vote the
only ticket, the Democratic ticket. We
speak not ouly to those of Augusta, but
to the whole country. Let us colored
people of every town, and State, do as
those in Augusta did, that is, endorse the
Democratic nomination. We think we
are finding out who our friends are, at
least a good many are. The white man
of this country, is our only true friend.
Why won’t all find it out? As the color
ed people of Augnsta have made one good
step, let us still make another, by carry
ing out their resolutions to support Mr.
Stevens in the approaching election, by
supporting the Democratic candidate in
Baldwin county.
