The Christian Index-
We notice that Rev. A. J. Battle, D. D.
the distinguished President of Meree
University, has begun a series of deeply
interesting articles in The Ciuust'ian In
dex, on “thcTHuinan Will.” Dr. Battle
stands among the foremost representatives
of the Baptist denomination in the South,
in point of scholarship, worth and influ
ence.
In addition to these valuable contribu
tions we take occasion to sav, that The
Index and Baptist is, undoubtedly, the
most prominent and influential religious
family paper published in the South. Un-
det the managing editorship of Rev. Da
vid E. Butler, assisted by a corps of first-
class editorial writers, and enriched by
contributions from the ablest pens to he
found among the Baptist denomination in
Georgia, its worth and inlluenee among
Baptists cannot be overestimated. No
Baptist in the State ought to be without
this sterling and inflexible organ and
champion of his faith.
But aside from its denominational val
ue, The Index commends itself to every
intelligent reader as pre-eminently worthy
of patronage on account of its value as a
family and literary paper. It presents
whatever is worthy of presentation in the
affairs of the day, in a pure, chaste and
and condensed style. Its comments are
terse, frank, unprejudiced, and always
aim to elucidate the truth, and advance
the good.
Its litonw-y tone Is high ; itsClllicsbroad,
and thoroughly Christian. Every num
ber contains something of interest and
value to the matured man and woman, as
well as to the child. Church, Sunday
School, and family interests receive due
attention in its columns, and all its de
part incuts are kept up to the highest stan-
d ml.
Wc urge upon our Baptist readers, as
well as upon those of oilier denominat ions,
the pleasure and benefit they will realize
by becoming permanent renders of The
Index. They will receive a tenfold re
turn for the amount expended in sub
scription. Read The Index advertise
ment in this number of our paper.
Colored Biot in Mississippi -
Memphis, December 11.—The origin of
the riot at Rolling Pork, Issauguena coun
ty, Mississippi, on Saturday night, No
vember 27, 4s as follows: A party of ne-
gToes assembled at the village and were
drinking and carousing, when one of them
pushed against a youth whom be met on
tiie street, using rough language at the
same time. The youth drew a knife and
inflicted a scalp wound on the negro and
then fled for safety. The negro became
very much exasperated and avowed ven
geance. To prevent this a warrant w as
obtained for the arrest of the youth, charg
ing him witli assault with intent to kill,
but before it could be served, the negroes
broke into the store and beat tire lad se
verely with an iron bar. Finally, one of
the jrarty shot the boy iu the thigh. At
the report of pistols the negroes ran, but
the whites had begun to assemble, and
fearing a general riot, pursued and captur
ed ten of them, put them in the station
house and placed a guard over them.
During the night one of the. guard not up
on duty came out on the porch with a gun
on his shoulder, and was ordered away
by tiie sentinel on duty. As he turned
his gun, which was cocked, struck against
the window, and was discharged. The
negro prisoners, thinking that they were
being fired upon, stampeded, and the
guard opened up an indiscriminate firing,
wounding two of their own number^ and
two negroes, all slightly, but the prison
ers escaped. On Sunday the most Intense
excitement prevailed there, as it was
learned that Noah Parker and Arthur
Brooks, two notorious negroes, were try-
iug to organize the negroes for an assault
on the place, and the whites were organ
ized under Rev. Mr. Ball, a Bapsist min
ister, who arrested Brooks and Parker,
and in the attempt to rescue them the ren
counter reported last nigiit occurred.
