HOME JOURNAL.
FIUDAY MORNING. JUNE IS, JBB3.
CJOOO UOVEItNMICNT.
W e received tiie other day from
some kiud source, a very handsome
volume of four hundred pages, en
titled “ Ideas for a Science of Gov
ernment:, in addresses, letters and
articles on a strictly national cur
rency, tariff and civil service. By
Hon. Petek Coopeb, L L. D., New
York. It contains an admirable
likeness of the distinguished au
thor, as the writer saw him in his
{ileasant home several years ago.
lis autograph is quite as distinct
and bold as Senator Brown’s of our
State, whom in many respects he
resembled. On the fly-leaf we find
the following inscription :
“ I dedicate this book to my chil
dren, grand-children and to the pu
pils of Cooper Institute ”
The venerable philanthropist, ut
a very advanced age, recently pas
sed away, but he has left behind,
iu noble and generous deeds, a me
morial that will endure forever
more.
DKATII OF IK. MEANS.
More than fifty years ago the wri
ter heard this distinguished educa
tor and eloquent divine preach in
Atbons. Since then wo have at dif
ferent places and in different rela
tions seen and known much of him, |
A more lovely character we have:
never found. It is not strange,
therefore, that lie read with sad in
terest the following in the Atlanta j
Constitution of last Saturday:
“The venerable Dr. Alexander
Means, D. 1)., died at his home in
Oxford at o’clock yesterday af-;
ternoon, after a long and painful 1
illness of nervous prostration, llis
remains were buried in the family
burying ground in tlio cemetery at
Oxford, at 5 o’clock this evening,
the burial services being conducted
by Drs. Haygood and Hopkins. No
services were held at the church,
but a memorial service will be held
duriug the approaching commence
ment at Emory college, of which
institution ho was once president.
Dr. Means was a native of South
Carolina, and was a graduate of
Columbia college. Ho was also a
graduato of Louisville, Kentucky,
medical college. He was president
of the Southern Masonic Female
collego, of Covii gtou, in 1853, and
professor of anatomy in the Au
gusta medical college at the same
time. Ho was one of tlio most em
inent divines of tlio ago, while in
♦ho field of letters lie ever stood at
the head of the profession. Asa
pulpit orator and lecturer his elo
quence know no bounds, lie was
about eighty-throe years of age and
liis aged companion still survives
him.
TIIK UKANI) OM> PATRIOT!
There is a grand old Georgian,
living in Augusta, “tho noblest Ro
man of thorn all,” with his tottering
feet at, tho edgo of tho grave; his
locks blossoming for a happy eter
nity; with a political and personal
record as pure as tho driven snow;
with a courage of manhood that
knows no fear in tho cause of right;
with a soul as innocent of corrup
tion as that of a babe; a man who
has always maintained the cour
age of his convictions; a Christian
who hides not his light under a
bushel; a governor who stood firm
by his pooolo in their darkest days
with tho utmost fidelity; a citizen
whoso honor remains unsullied; a
manly and beautiful type of tho
true Georgian in all that tho term
mentis—scholarly, tho Christian, tho
patriot, tho statesman, the gentle
man, ah ! tho Georgian ! That man
is Charles J. Jenkins!
It is a glorious reflection for one
to love his state, however humble it
uiay be in its pretensions. It is
more glorious to boa citizen of
such a state as this grand old com
monwealth, tho maiden queen of
the “oiiginal thirteen.” Rut the
grandeur of such a state and her
citizenry is to have such a man as
Charles J. Jenkins as one of her de
voted Bons; dutiful, obedient, filial
faithful! Tho memory of such a
venerable and true son will go down
the corridors of Georgia’s future
with a halo of glory ! Sweet and
blissful may bo the last days of
Charles J. Jenkins ! Hallowed he
the memory of such a grand old
mau !
When such men die tho most ap
propriate epitaph that can be writ- i
ten on their tombstones is, “An
Honest Man,” or “Here lies a typ
ical hero.” These cover all there
is of true manhood.
Wo find the above in the Car
tcrsville Express. It is a merited
tribute tc one of Georgia’s greatest
and best men. Long may ho yet
livo.
—The Athens papers announce
the death of Mrs. Lane, the esti
mable wife of Rev. Dr. C. W. Lane,
the able and devoted pastor of the
Presbyterian church, of that city.
Mrs. Lauo has been in bad health,
and died at two o'clock, last Sat
urday. The funeral services, which
took place on Sunday, were con
ducted by Rev. Henry Newton of
Union Point, assisted by the pas
tors of the different churches, in
Athens, and were numerously at
tended. We tender our condoleuce
to our bereaved friend and brother
and his family in this hour of afflic
tion.
THE EAIM.V PEACE,
In this vicinity,was widely known ;
iu ante-bellum days, but its former!
proprietors long since passed away.
By reference to the first page of the'
Home JoCKNAL to-day, it will be
seen that under its present live and
worthy auspices it is more attrac
tive and profitable than ever. We
do not think our reporter lias over
drawn his sketch. Every farmer
may not be ablo to carry on as ex
tensive operations as Mr. Warner;
indeed, ordinarily, small farms are
relatively more profitable under our
present unreliable labor. But every
tiller of the soil should aspire to be!
a thoruiKjh and model farmer, and j
steadily increase the outcome of j
every cultivated acre,and especially j
look after the comfort and thrift of
his stock of every kind. Thus will
his life be pleasant and prosperous.
We hope to see the day when hand
| some farms and villas like Mr. War
ner’s will be spring up along the
Georgia railroad, from Augusta to
Atlanta, and extend far back into
the interior. Let steady improve
ment be the motto of tlio people.
SI.NDAY DESECRATION.
We are neither fanatical or su
perstitious. But wo believe that
“ righteousness exaltcth a nation
and that sin is a reproach to any
| people.” Tlmt God will alike hold
individuals separately and collect
ively responsible for persistent vio
| lations of His laws. That corpo
rate l ights and privileges conferred
Iby human governments upon indi
viduals, in contravention of the Di
: vine code, cannot shield them from
penalties incurred by infractions ol
| that code. That partakers of Sun
!dny railroad earnings, in violation
lof the fourth commandment, un
less they are entirely powerless to
correct the evil complained of, are
not guiltless in receiving these wa
ges of sin, simply because they
have the sanction of human lawcC-
Tho growing desecration of the
Sabbath everywhere is attracting
not only tho attention of ecclesias
tical bodies, whoso gospel labors
are often neutralized and greatly
embarrassed by this evil, bili hu
manitarians and philanthropists
aro coming to tho lcscue of God's
holy day from perversion and ob
literation. Wo arc glad to see that
Maryland and Virginia are taking
the load in this good work. Wo
hope to see Georgia full into irST,
and trust the railroads of this State
which aro a mighty power—will
conserve the morals of the people
as well as foster and promote their
material interests, for they arc one
and inseparable.
In the last Southern Churchman,
published at Richmond, we fiud the
following, which wo commend to
railroad presidents in Georgia:
“Wo have repeatedly called at
tention to the unnecessary Sun-j
day trains on the railroads; and as |
under our own eyes, that of the
Choasapeako and Ohio, which not!
only advertises its Sunday exeur-!
sion trains, but recommends the I
people to spend their Sundays at j
the seaside. As an example to this!
and other roads, and showing what;
can ho dene, wo see in the papers i
that the president of the Louisville,!
Now Albany and Chicago Railroad, j
Col. Bennett H. Young, has issued j
an order:—
“That as far as possible no work
shall bo done or trains bo run on
Sunday. The only passenger train
that will bo run on that day is that
carrying mails, and efforts will be
made to discontinue it. lu cases
of perishable goods or live stock,
freight trains will run when neces
sary only. The order further says :
‘You will in future run no excursion
trains of any kind for any purpose
ou the Sabbath. This order ap
plies to camp meeting traius. I
am also informed that a number
of the company’s employees have
conscientious scruples against any
work on the Sabbath. There are
likely others who do not feel so
strongly on the subject. Under no
ordinary circumstances must any
employee who objects on the ground
of ins religious convictions be or
dered or required to do auv ser
vice ou the Sabbath. If any diffi
culties arise in the execution of this
regulation you will please report
them to me for consideration, and
you will also notify the employees
of their rights ou conscientious
grounds to be fully protected iu the
observance of the day of rest.’
There is no doubt of one thins.
i
wo may excuse one mail or passeu
ger Sunday train, if we choose; but
that nearly all work can be suspen
ded ou Sunday is beyond doubt.
We see in the Convention news
of the diocese of Maryland, that
that venerable and beloved Chris
tian man, Mr. William Woodward,
of St. Peter's church, Baltimore,
offered a resolution iu regard to
this matter. What Mr. Woodward
was after was not a “Puritan” Sab
bath; he was after the good of hu
manity ; he felt for the brother man,
wanted he should not be forced to
work ou Sundays; might have his
day of rest, like other men.”
