GOOD ADVICE FORMERS. Sermon Preached in St. Paul’s Church to Members of the Third. GOOD MEN AND BRAVE. Eulogy for Lietenant Hobson- Faith is the Soldier’s Best Armor on the Field of Battle. The following sermon, preached by Rev. H O. Judd, to the soldiers of the Third regiment, will be read with interest by those who were not fortunate enough to hear the delivery: Preached before Company A, Third Regiment of Georgia Volunteers by th* R< v. H o. Judd, in St. Paul's church, Ma con, Ga., July 10, 1898. “Wherefore take unto you the whole ar mor of God that ye may be able to with stand in the evil day and having done all to stand.” —Eph. vi. 13. There is no room in the world for a cow ard A man without courage is a libel on God's handiwork. The Whole economy of life is such as to demand of every individual the spirit to do and dare in all worthy enterprise. Phys ically we stand face to face with conflict ing natural forces which must be conquer ed. Man muet eat bread in the sweat of his face. The sluggard is a cowa-d who is sent to the ant to learn wisdom. He is de clared by .icrlpture to be worse than an in fidel. Mentally the demand is just as great for courageous effort. There is no royal way to learning Only the man who is brave enough to put down his love of ease and subject himself to discipline and toil, can ever know the pride and power of cul ture. Even men of ability and training are sometimes destitute of courage to' turn their acquirements to advantage, like the timid man in commerce who wiil not ven ture his means for fear of losing. ‘ There is a tide in the affairs of men which taken at its How leads on to fortune.” Courage is the result of reunion of reso lution and fortitude. Resolution to un dertake a labor and fortitude to bear and endure the trials of its prosecution Cour age may be said to be of two sorts, physical and moral. A man may be actuated by one or both of them. We say that man is as brave as t lion. Yes, and his courage may, like that of the lion, be without reason and producean immoral instinct, a natural pug nacity and love of conflict. Mer? physical courage is liable to be passionate and stormy*, easily influenced by avarice or malice. Such courage* is not inconsistent with moral cowardice. In th'* dark days of dueling nu n were often led to accept a challenge from fear of a purverted public sentiment. They were not brave enough to obey conscience rather than submit to a false code of honor. A man may face death and take his chances on the battle field from some other th in a patriot! • mo tive; he may be impelled by ambition or caught by the infection of a popular move ment and he may stand by h's colors from a fear of the penalty for desertion. Many men have little physical courage, but tin y are easily moved by excitement which may stimulate a reckless bravery. It has been said that the MarsrJlles hymn did more to precipitate the Ereneli revolii tion w'th all its animal ferocity than all other cm ass combined. A man without physical eourgaa may, from a moral motive, from love of count! y or i sense of Justice, overcome his timidity and act with the bravest. This is the highest kind of courage; it is based on principle and enforced by sentiment. Moral courage is prompted *.y a .»«eve of duty the force of obligi'inn »» or: ac coidmg to convictions of,what is just ami right And it will be found true, as a rule, that the bravest man in peril was ike truest man in peace. IT? was brave to tell the truth, though the heavens should fall' brave to deal honestly though want should stare him in the face; brave to put down his passions when temptations assailed him. Such a man when peril comes is strong to meet it. Such a man is he whose name is on the nation's lips and whose no ble daring is a world-wide inspiration today. Young Hobson had proved and confirmed his courage before he went to face death on the Merrimac; he proved it at Annap olis as a cadet, die went there armed, not with a pistol or a sword, but with Bible and prayer book, and to use them was a duty from which he could not be moved by the taunts and jeers of his companions. To fear to do wrong, to obey God rather than man, is the badge of moral heroism. It follows that the highest test of moral courage is not amid the glammor and ex citement of war, which may intoxicate and make one reckless of both principle and life. That man gives the highest proof of his fearless devotion to duty who singly, it may b.>, and in obscurity, sacrifices what most men live for. in the prosecution of some work for the glory of God and the good of his fellows. He is said to be the world's greatest benefactor who makes two blades of grass to grow in place of one. Peace hath its victories no less than war. A certain missionary society has engraved upon its seal the figure of an ox with a plow standing upon one side of it and an altar on the other. The meaning is clearly, ready for labor or for sacrifice. Over against the history of military struggle and their heroism is that of hit mantarian ami missionary labors. What a noble example of the farmer was that of Father Haman, a monk, who went alone to minister to a colony of lepers on an island is the Pacific ocean. When he perished there was a generous rivalry among those who wised to succeed him. The same was true of the English bishop. Han nington. who was martyred in Central Af rica. What robust courage Luther dis played when going to his almost certain doom at the Diet of Worms He exdaimed to his friends who spught to dissuade him. "I would go thither though every tile on every house in yonder city were a devil.” This is the purest heroism —an unfaltering fidelity to principle springing 'corn s:i all absorbing love of the truth. This ; s not a natural disposition but the gift of the spir it of God. It was characteristic of the Apostles, notably of St. Peter, who was naturallv deficient in physical courage. His boldness was afterward conspicuous. Christ sent his disciples forth as iambs among wolves and warned them in advance of their danger. Singly, or two by -wo they went forth, unfriended and unarmed, save by faith in God to challenge the hate and hostility 'of all the heathen world. Their example was the inspiration of that great army of martyrs and confessors wto for ages on the rack, amid the flames, in the dungeon and the Roman Am;>hithea‘*?r. bore witness to the truth, and cemented •with their blood the foundation stones of Christian civilization. •When the valient Douglass in the Holy Land, taking the silver case in which was the heart of Bruce, threw it into the midst of the Saracen host, an 1 rushing into the midst of the fray cried: “Pass first in fight as thou wert wont to do. and Dougless will follow thee or die.” he illustrated the force of example in chivalrous courage. When Christ in loving sacrifice said to men. "Follow me.” the world was moved into sympathy with his heroic spirit. The weakness of human nature and the subtle power of the enemy make it necessary that we hould have spiritual aid and sup port. St. Paul presents us with the figure of a Roman soldier clad in armor to present the spiritual defense of the Christian pre pared for conflict. It is no sign of coward ice to fortify against danger. Courage is not reckless daring. We have for our navy, armored ships, and for the army, forts and rifle pits. Success is often due more to strategy and means of defense than to naked brute force. The Apostle represents the Chri Jan soldier as pano plied with amor; the shield of faith, the breast plate c.f righteousness, the helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit. He is said to be thrice armed whose cause is just. To be on the side of God and the truth, is to be on the highest vantage ground. To have faith in God and accept his means of grace. To follow Christ and serve him, is to put on Christ— s ii purity, his fidelity and 'his truth which shall be our invincible defense against all the powers of darkness. We do not believe that success is ulti mately on the side of the heavier bat talions. but wherever truth and justice are. that is, on the side of God who through the ages is working his beneficient will. This was the mind of rhe courageous faptain Phillips who after the crushing of the Spanish fleet on the Cuban coast, said to his men. "I wish you to uncover your head-: In silent acknowledgement of the hand of Providence in this bloodless victory; and I wish here publicly to pro fess my belief in God the Father Al mighty.” Never, probably, under like circumstances, was there a more touching exhibition of manly courage than in this simple trustful acknowledement before the world of that "Divinity -which shapes our ends, rough hew them though we may.”. That man does not know what it is to de bate or temporize with conscience. It is his, not to question, but to obey though he should have to go through fire and water. When after two thousand years Herculanium and Pompeii were stripped of their winding sheet of ashes and lava, at one of the public gates was found a sentinel still standing at his post where on that fate ful day ages before, death had found him. Suoh firmness may he the re sult of military discipline. But that Chris tian fortitude which is an element o*f true courage, and to which St. Paul refers when he says “And having done all to stand, comes of faith in God and the righteous working of his will.” This Is the inspiration of all true heroism. It gave to tihe world the character of St. Paul who, measured by his fearless struggles, his sufferings and his conquests, stands towering far above, the bravest and the mightiest in civil and military annals. Said he, “I die daily." What more touch ing commentary on 'his life could we have than his simple declaration to the Ephe sian brethren. “And now, belhold! I go Ixiund in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me these, save that the Holy Ghost witnessed! in every city, saying that bonds and afflic tions abide me. but none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to test ify the Gospel of the grace of God.” Soldier you have here your inspiration to sublime and ste.i Ifast courage. You have espoused your countries’ cause, the cause of justice truth and humanity. -May you see, or seem to see, upon your banner as the Emperor Constantine did, upon the face of the heavens, the form of the cross of Christ, which is the symbol and power of all that is truth anil 'best in Christian civilization; and may you go forth in its defense, armed with faith in God and love to man. and though the body perish, the soul may in death, echo the victor song of St. Paul, "I have fought a good fight, I have finish ed my course, henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day, and not to me only, but unto .di them that love his appearing.” Yellow Jaundice Cured.

About one month ago my child, which is fifteen months old. had an atack of diar rhoea accompanied by vomiting. I gave it such remedies as are usually given in such cases, but as nothing gave relief, we sent for a physician and it was under his oare for a week. At this time the child been sick for about ten days and was having about twenty-five operations of th? bowels every twelve hours, and we were convinced that unless it soon obtained re lief it would not live.

Section No. 5 of Colonel Bryan's train was run into by a switch engine yesterday afternoon at the foot of Pine street and several people were badlj* inju’red. The wreck was caused by the switchman at the junction putting the soldier's train on the wrong track. Section No. 5 was in charge of Conductor MoWhortcr and Engineer Ben Campbell. The train was backing in front of the Junction and was running at a rapid rate, when a switch engine, in charge of En gineer Avant and Fireman Sweeney, with a caboose in front of it loaded with soldiers ronded the curve at the coal chute. Engineer Avant reversed his engine and applied the air brakes but it was too late. The trains came together -with a terrible crash. The caboose was driven into the Pullman sleeper in which the officers were riding. The trucks of the sleeper were knocked from under it and the trucks of the caboose were driven into the same position. The cab was splintered into kindling wood and splinters were scatter ed all over the tracks. The smoke stack, headlight and foot board of the engine were completely de molished. Engineer Avant, of the switch engine, was seriously injured. Four ribs were broken and his back was severely wrench ed. Fireman Sweeney jumped and escaped without injury. •Mr. James ißainey, of the city fire de partment, was standing on the steps of the cab and was badly injured. Lieutenant Hall, of company E. had his knee badly hurt. He was standing on the step of the sleeper .when the crash came and was thrown violently to the ground. Captain Cross, of company M. had his hand badly mashed. Private Jones, ,of company E. was 'bruised about the head. Several others were bruised and shaken up. it is wonderful that so few people were hurt as the rear platform of the sleeper was crowded with soldiers and so was the caboose, but all of them jumped and es caped with a few scratches. rhe Central and Georgia Southern trains were delayed for an hour as both the tracks were blockaded. The tracks were cleared last night and the trains are run ning all right today. castohta. Bears the Kind You Have Always Bought BRAVE LAWTON. A Former Comrade Tells a Good Story on Hirn. Lexington, Ky., July.—Major John Green Ballance, of Chicago, Who is here mustering in the Fourth Kentucky vol unteers, told the following regarding Gen eral Lawton, who distinguished himself at Santiago: General Lawton is one of the bravest men I ever saw. I served with him at Ft. Clark, in 1872. He was then a lieutenant and quartermaster of the of the Fourth cavalry. He was a most exemplary sol dier, except such times ais he went out with the boys for fun. On one occasion when the commandant, then cilonel, now General McKensie, was at San Antonio, and Lieutenant Colonel, now Major Gen eral Shafter, was in command, the giant •Lawton went out with the boys. They had lots of fun, part of which was the demol ishing of the fixtures of one of the leading saloons of the place. When the proprietor presented a bill for $260 to the lieutenant the next day he promptly paid it. It is true that Lawton walked Geronimo down and effected his capture, but it was the late Captain Gatewood who went alone to Ge ronimo’s camp and male the capture pos sible after the old Indian had been run to earth.” HIT THE PIPESTEM But the Soldier Wanted His Smoke Too Much to Quit. Allentown, Pa., July 22.—Daniil Davis, of the Sixth United States Infantry, is at home on a furlough. He participated in the fight around Satiago, and among other stories, relates this instance of the cool daring of a member of his regiment: “I was lying in one of the trenches,” he said. “About eight feet to my left was the French military attacae. Between the attache and me was a member of my com pany. tDisdaining to lie down, and hun gry for a smoke, he reached into his pocket and took out a pipe and some tobacco. He had just lighted the pipe and taken a few whiffs when a Mauser clipped the stem close to his mouth. Looking down and see ing that the bowl was not broken, and that sufficient of the stem remained, he picked up the pipe, filled it with tobacco again, lit it and proceeded to smoke. The French officer’s eyes gleamed with admira tion, as he exclaimed with admiration, as he exclaimed: “What stuff are you Ameri cans made of anyway?’ ” C-A-STOTt-X-A.. Bears the Kind You Have Always Bought s tr COLON’S GUNS. Left on the Testing; Ground, Savs a Genoese Mer chant. London, July 22 —,A prominent Genoese merchant vouches for the statement that when Italy sold the cruiser Cristobal Colon, then the Garibaldi, to Spain, her big guns arrived too late to be tested be fore being mounted on board. They were accordingly put on board without being tested, but the Armstrongs, by whom the guns were made, insisted upon their being tested, nevertheless. The Spanish com mander of the ship protested, declaring that there was no time for a full test, and besides, such a test of guns on board would shatter the furniture, mirros, etc., in the cabins. The Armstrongs were still insis tent. and finally a compromise was made whereby the gains were put ashore and tested at Spezzia. The test was in every way satisfactory, but the Spanish com mander sailed away without again ship ping the guns. This acounts for the fact that when the Gristoval Colon was run ashore and sunk by the ships of the American fleet on the Cuban coast it was found that she was without heavy arma ment.

A magazine or new?p;s;-cr editor must oe aware, if Le will stop to think, that if unly those people read po.*fry who write it a large pro,x.rtion of the population may be classed as readers. Perhaps the readers of other people s poetry are hardly so nu merous, but there is no doubt that poetry is widely read and is favorably regarded by persons who make no literary preten sions. Ask the very domestic voinun or the woman in a remote farmhouse If she keeps a sera, book, and she will in all probability acknowledge having thus pre server! a few "pie es of p< etry —taken, the most of them, from the one weekly paper that comes to her home. The clubwoman reails put fry, cf course She lias to if she would stand well, but it is not so certain that she engages in the perusal for personal enjoyment. It is aon vtirnes because she must know about “tone color’’and who the“poet prophets” nro, ni:d what Browning meant, and what Whitman was driving at. and all the rest of the poet lore—but she reads it, and the clubwoman, as we all know, makes up a good part of the community What she reads and professes to like is of course only that class of verse admitted by magazine editors to be poetry, and it is not exclusively this which is meant when it Is asserted that all men ami women read more or less poetry. The verses that the woman out on the farm Ims In her scrapb ok. that even the clubwoman has tucked away in her desk or hi i- pocketbook along with samples of silk, or that the man of business carries in his vest pocket until the bit of paper is worn out, would not always pass muster with the critics. Their meter may some times be faulty, the thoughts may be mere platitudes, but they somehow express a sentiment that appeals to th** heart; they touch the emotions, not the intellect alone; they speak of common experiences—of love and longing and loss, of home, of mother, of child, sometimes of religious faith, hut always a tender sentiment The man and woman who cherish these verses would resent being called sf ntimontal, but one so callous as not to be moved by gen uine sentiment, even crudely expressed, is rare. Comparatively few read volumes of verse—poetry, the best of it, is a luxury that even the elect are apt to take in small quantities—and the public has learned in stinctively to pass by most magazine verse as having nothing in it. That it is perfect in form and classic in thought means nothing if soul is not there, and it ie mechanism rather than soul t hat is usual ly discernible. It is the poetry found in the corners of newspapers that is read an<’ ••ut out and learned by heart, the verse» t ?erhaps contributed by amateurs, perhaps taken from the masters, but chosen be ■jause they speak the thoughts ami aspira tions, the hopes and loves and griefs com mon to humanity. Not ail of it is wiiat the critics know as poetry, but it is poetry to the readers, and if that is not a final test it is one sufficient to answer the <;uet tion mentioned in the beginning.-In iiaiiapoiis Journal.
