Fobstth, Ga., February 19, 1887.
Editors “Advertiser’’ :—Sunday
night. Gth inst., 1 had the pleasure
of attending service at the M. E.
Church ; and listened to a very able
discourse ;"delivered by a worthy di
vine, Rev. J. R. Parker, (who, 1
suppose, is pastor of the same
church). In which he very plainly
and ably elucidated an all important
Bible subject “Parable of the
Sower.’ During his sermon, ho
said much about people attending
church regularly; especially, church
members, he also made very plausi
ble remarks concerning conduct at
church. Seeming to censure some
for misconduct at church, probably,
in tne past. I hat was the first ser
mon 1 had ever listened to, preached
by the worthy pastor; and 1 was
very much impressed with the
truths contained in that discourse,
so frankly and freely proclaimed :
V ou will, doubtless, see at once, that
l heartily concur with the worthy
divine as touching the conduct of
people ati church. 1 have resd 1
somewhere that the buildings devft l 4
ted to religious worship and trio
cemetery in a town, were unfailing
indexes of the character of the peo
ple who make up the community.
Let me see the behavior of a man or
woman at church, if no where else,
and I will tell you if he or she is a
l sidy or gentleman ; or if it he a child
I will tell you what kind of parents
it has, the character of its home,
and what kind of raising it has had.
If this be true, which ot course it is,
Heaven save the mark, in almost
innumerable instances of my obser
vation. But, as lam comparatively
a stranger in Forsyth—wishing to
be considered a gentleman—and
hoping no reader will become offen
ded with me—l will tell you, so far
as I am capable, what “Church Eti
quette” is:—ln the first place, go to
church if possible, in time, so as to
he there before services oegin, and
thus avoid disturbing the minister,
and attracting the attention of the
congregation ; when you get there,
go in, walk quietly and take your
seat in the same decent manner,
and direct your attention to the
minister, if he be present, it not, to
the pulpit which is his representa
tive in his absence; next, remain
quiet, sit as still as your comfort
will allow, do not fidget and stare
about, to see who is there or to
study the fit ot a coat, or the style
of anew dress; remain in until atter
the benediction is pronounced, un
less necessity compels 3-011 to leave.
It \*ou can sing anywhere, be cer
tain to sing at church, or you are
casting a reflection upon your par
ents, who have made every effort to
have 3*ou trained in this accomplish
ment, and insulting Hod by a con
tempt of this important part ot his
service. \ our Creator, and he alone,
gave you your voice, 3*olll* power to
talk and to sing, ai\d you are guilty
of shameful ingratitude, when 3-011
retuse to raise that voice in songs
of praise to him, while attending
divine worship. Why, i have seen
little girls from six to ten years of
age, take their hymn books regular
ly to church, find the hymn, and
never fail to join their sweet bird
like voices in praising God. Was’nt
this pleasant to see and hear? and
did nt God aud his angels look
down upon them with approval and
delight ?
Again I have heard females at the
concert or in the parlor throw their
voices down their tnroatsin imita
tion of the -‘tremendous operatic”
and vocalizing loud enough to be
heard nearly a quarter of a mile :
And then go to church, ana insult
their Maker by being mute as mice,
when a hymn was sung. Another
rule of “Church Etiquette”—When
the minister is pra3'ing or any* one
else who is called upon, never fail to
bow 3*our head in prayer, no matter
what your profession is, no matter
whether you are kneeling, sitting or
standing. Gcod breeding requires
I. . 0
it. Do 3*ou think it a true lady or
gentlemen who will sit he’d, head
erect or stare around, or whisper,
while the great Jehovah is bcii|jr ad
dressed in the house, devoted to his
worship? When at church 3-ou are
in tiie presence of God, and angels
crowned—even they* bow their glit
tering forms and veil their beauti
ful seraphic faces before the majesty
of the King ot Kings and Lord of
Lords. Above all things, pever
whisper or laugh in church, nor
turn 3'our head around to see who
enters the-huilding ; it is a direct af
front to the minister, and disgusting
to aO3- intelligent and cultivated
person, who may be present. Allow
mo to relate a little circumstance,
and 1 am done, you may have heard
it before, but it is so apropos to the
subject, it will bear repeating. Not
long since, in a town out west, a
Methodist minister, a stranger in
the place, was filling the pulpit one
Sabbath morning. During seivi.-e
he observed a yonn#rroy ; ff "" be

sermon)* he severe A reproved the
offender—after the benediction, 'a
brother of the church came to the
minister, and told him lie had made
quite a mistake in his reproof efthat
young man. Why? asked the min
ister—because replied the other, he
is an idiot, —since then said the
minister, when relating the circum
stance, “I have hesitated to reprove
people for misconduct in church : as
I was afraid the3 T were all idiots.”
“Incognito.”
An Rsiil to Sosio Scraping*
Edward Shepherd, of Harrisburg,
111., says: “Having received so
much benefit from Electric Hitters,
1 feel it my duty to let suffering hu
manity know it. Have had a run
ning sore on my leg for eight years ;
my doctors told me I would have to
have the bone scraped or leg ampu
tated. I used, instead, three bottles
of Electric Bitters and seven boxes
Bueklen’s Arnica Salve, and my leg
is now sound and well.”
Electric Bitters are sold at fifty
cents a bottle, and Bucklen’s Arnica
Salve at 25c. per box by Ponder &

The Salvation Army.
Of the work -of this army in At
lanta, the Journal says :
Three weeks’ trial has convinced
the most incredulous that their
mission is resulting in good rather
than evil. By their unusual meth
ods, they are influencing many who
have been beyond the reach of the
city churches and local missionaries.
And this is not all, for there are
numbered among the converts many
intelligent people, who have heard
the Gospel preached, more or less,
all their lives, but had never before
had so fully brought homo to them
the importance of simple faith in
Christ as the only method ot re
demption. Hecently the Salvation
ists have been assisted in their la
bors by regularly ordained minis
ters ; the Salvation barracks, at
Holbrook's hall, 83 South Forsyth
street, with a capacity of 1,000, has
bec-n crowded at the regular meet
ings; this far fifty-two have come
forward and acknowledged their
conversion, fifteen of whom have
expressed a desire to go into train
ing as cadets. Among the new con
verts are many people of well
known respectability and intelli
gence. Some who have heretofore
led the most sinful lives, and been
scoffers of religiou, are now making
the most pathetic, earnest and im
pressive appeals to their old com
panions in the cause of the Master.
It the interest continues to increase
as it has recently it will be found
necessary to provide a larger hail.
The first numner of the Middle
Georgia Progress, Sandersville, Ga.,
found its way to our office last
week. We welcome the Progress
among our exchanges, and wish it
' a prosperous and successful future.
COMMUNICATED.
Editor Advertiser; —ln your
paper, a week or two ago, I read an
article trout Bet, which I enjoyed
very- much. He seemed to have the
good of the couuty at heart; he
wanted more banks, that there
might be more money, so that he as
well as others might enjoy- the use
of it. 1 was sorry* ho did not go a
little further and recommend a little
more legislation for our quite little
county. \\ e need a committee,
whose duty shall be, to plan and ar
range all the business that now falls
upon the shoulders of our officials,
without any* one having the right to
question or impugn their motives.
For it is very* embarrassing to a
man, whose custom has been for
years to run the machinery of a
county, when ho approaches, an of
ficial and tells him what he must do,
to ho set back and down about three
inches below his shirt collar, by the
refusal of the official to heed his in
struction. How ungrateful it is in
that official to disregard the wise
counsel that has been given him,
simply because there is no law au
thorizing the conduct of the coun
sellor.
There is another custom to which
I wish to call y*our attention as well
as the public generally 7 ,, to-wit: that
of tampering with jurors. Are ju
rors mere figure heads? Our law
does uot sanction this interference ;
but I believe the juror is often to
blame about it. Often when some
cause is being investigated by* the
grand jury*, parties at interest on the
outside know of it almost as soon as
the jury, and what is being done.
How could this he if some juror did
not perjure himself? But it does
not stop here.
There are those whom our legis
lature ought to provide for, that
their action might have semblance
of law, as well as prudence.
Who has visited our quiet little
town for days and weeks past, and
not seen and felt the elbowing, the
caucusing, and, I will say*, tasted the
social glass too, as it is called, all for
the purpose of carrying some pet
measure before the next grand
jury? And to the shame of some
jurors, be it said, they are listening
and consenting to the intrigue of
those outside parties, who have been
running the machinery for the
county* for years and y*et had no le
gal right. And it is tor that class I
asYto have a commission that their
~y he legalized and consistent.
But these are not all the ills to
which ws are subject. W T e are sur
rounded by* those who want office,
and who, v/hen in office, want it
again—it may he a tax-gatherer.
Does he make ail the people come
squarely up and pay their taxes?
Or does he wait till the election is
over? It does not require a Solo
mon to answer this question. I
want an act passed to prevent them
—(tax collectors) from holding of
fice for two successive terms, and
thereby, I think the state, the coun
ty and the bondsmen especially, will
he benefitted.
Our town seems to be passing
through the crucible, whether pro
hibition shall or shall not prevail.
While we have prohibition laws,
y*et there appears to be about as
much drunkenness as before the
law was passed. I am in favor of
total prohibition or pale of liquor,
and for the state to establish a house
and a sworn officer to preside ever
it and administer it under prescribed
laws. But I must close and ask
your pardon for Ur's intrusion.

Wholesoms Advice.
A correspondent writing through
the columns of the Sumpter Repub
lican, to the young men of his
county, in which he gives most
wholesome advice, thus addresses
them :
“Go to work, young men. keep
out of town ; roll up your sleeves
and take hold of the plow arid say
“1 will be a man in spite of all the
laziness that may now have hold of
me, and ail of those that have one
eye on the town, trying to farm,
waiting for something easy to come
to them.
\oung men, the time Las come
when we must look around and see
wh.at depends on us ; the wheel of
progress will soon have to be moved
by l, s young men, and, ; f we stand
back and wait until our aged fa
thers have passed away, and left us
to roll the wheel, it will stop short,
fur here we are depending on our
fathers to furnish us everything we
have. We ought to go to work and
furnish these things.”
GENERAL LEE.
A Generous English Estimate of the
Great Southern Soldier.
The London Pali Mall Gazette, in
its review of General Long's book,
says: “No biographer ever had a
nobler subject. Robert Lee had a
character all but flawless; he was a
real king of men, spotless in his
high-ou!ed integrity, born to com
mand and yet to be loved, unspoiled
by good fortune, as grandly* calm in
adversity—the shining figure, in a
word, of the stupendous struggle
that evoked the full development of
his special genius. In tlio fell ran
cor of a civil war, no adversary ever
pointed a word of venom against
Lee. Such soldiers of the north as
Meigs and McCornb record in Gen
eral Long’s pages their loving mem
ories of days ot early* commander
ship with the soldier who, campaign
after campaign, heaped upon the
north defeat after defeat. Ere yet
the sad time of internecine strife
had come, Leo had won renown as
a soldier of the Union. Old General
Scott, his commander in the Mexi
can war, had paid him the remarka
ble tribute of writing of him as the
‘very best soldier’ he had seen in the
field. Than Lee no American citi
zen was ever prouder of the Union ;
he realized that there would be no
greator calamity* tor the country 7 he
loved than a dissolution of that Un
ion ; he was prepared to sacrifice
for its preservation everything but
honor.
“When it became clear to him that
honor called him to share the fort
unes of his native Virginia, the sac
rifices he made to honor were un
questionably unique. Ollier sol
diers abandoned their profession;
Lee turned his face away from the
proffer of the Federal cominander
in-ehief. lie threw affluence be
hind him, for Arlington from the
first was camping ground for the
Feberal levies. Nor were his sac
rifices gilded by 7 the hope that suc
cess was to crown the issue which
the north and south were preparing
to fight out. ‘I never believed,
said he, two days before the catas
trophe at Appomattox, ‘I have nev
er believed that we could make good
in the long run our independence.
* * * But,’ he added, and the
words might adorn his tomb, ‘such
considerations made with me no dif
ference. We had, 1 was satisfied,
sacred principles to maintain and
sacred rights to defend, tor which we
were in duty bound to do our best,
even if we perished in the endeavor.
Gced ISeNUits in Etery Case.
D. A. Bradford, wholesale paper
dealer of Chattanooga, Tonn., writes
that he was seriously afflicted with
a severe cold that settled on his
lungs: had tried many remedies
without benefit. Being induced to
try Br. King’s New Discovery for
Consumption, did so and was en
tirely cured b3 r use of a few bottles.
Since which time he has used it in
his family for all Coughs and Colds
with best results. This is the ex
perience of thousands whose lives
iiave been saved by this Wonderful
Discovery.

Cost of Congressmen.
The mileage of senators costs 833,-
000 per annum ; that of representa
tives §110,624. The senate mileage
divided per capita would give every
senator over §134, a sum sufficient
to furnish each of them with first
class passage from San Francisco to
London or Paris. The house mil
eage foots up 8110,624, which is
equivalent to 8333.20 per capita.
The allowance per mile is 20 cents
each way. At the last session the
mileage of officers of the army and
navy, when traveling under orders,
was fixed at 8 cents per mile. At
the present session, in the sundry
civil bill, this allowance was fixed
at actual expenses, exclusive of
sleeping and parlor charges and 4
cents per mile. Able arguments
were made in the house to show that
this allowance was ample. If am
ple to cover the traveling expenses
of all other government officials,
why not apply it to members of
congress? Here is a good opportu
nity to save 875,000 per annum.
For contingent expenses the bill
provides for the senate 869,980, and
for the house 8113,937. The sums
divided per capita would give each
senator from the contingent fund
8921, and each representative 8342.
Summarizing, the incidental expense
of congressmen, exclusive of their
annual salary of $5,000, each sena
ator cost the government to provide
him with attendance over 85,307
per annum, and the cost of each
representative and delegate is 81,840.
The senate’s total for personal atten
dance is 8403,369 ; that of the house,
8612,6^4.

Allowed to Become a Law.
W ashinggon, February 14.—The
president has allowed the act ap
propriating 8400,000 a year to pro

militia to become a law without his
signature. The constitutional limi
tation ol ten days, within which
he should have acted on this bill,
expired Saturday. It is believed to
been an oversignt, as he was
not knowu to object to any of its
provisions.
