CASH YS. CRFIHT.
A Rlovv nt the Old Prwhntion
ary System of I lie Meth
odist Clnirch.
In the course of a doctrinal sermon
preached by a sable biAthcr before the
Colored Baptist Association on last
Sabbath, the reverend gentleman drew
a contrast between the Baptist and
Methodist churches—denominating the
former the cash system and the latter
the credit system of religion, and in
illustration of his position related the
following incident:
Some years ago a man ’fessed ’ligion,
and ’plied to jine de Baptis’ church.
He gin in his ’sperience and was ’ject
ed. So he went right straight and
jined do Mefodis’. Sometime after dat
a brudder Baptis’ axed him :
How dis, we wouldn’t hab you
and de Mefodis’ done tuk you?”
“ O,” said he, “ you dam old Baptis’
want to make me pay de cash down,
and, you see, de Mefodis’ gin me six
munts credick.”
County Tax.
As appears from a notice published
in another column by Judge Thornton,
the County tax for the present year is
70 per cent, on the State tax. This is
a considerable decrease from the two
years preceding. In 1873 it was 100
per cent., and in 1874, 80 per cent, on
the State tax. The tax would have
been considerably less, had it not been
that the Board of Education, upon
recommendation of the Grand Jury,
insisted on a special levy for school
purposes. As the tax payers receive
the direct benefit of the school tax, cer
tainly they can not complain.
Upon Judge Thornton’s accession to
office, the county was largely in debt.
Under his able administration the cur
rent’expenses of the county have been
regularly and promptly met, and the
debt almost extinguished. This year’s
tax will liquidate the balance and the
people can then breathe easier.

UlSSimilklNG.
Many persons in the world to all
appearances sail along smoothly
over life’s tempestuous ocean, but
they go under false colors. In
other words they manage to make
a good impression on society and
maintain a respectable appearance,
when their hearts are wrong and
their secret lives are tarnished
with crime. “ All is not gold that
glitters.” The baser metals under
the hand of the skilled artisan may
be made to please and even deceive
the unpractised eye, but they lack
the clink and genuineness of the
pure metal and are rejected as
spurious. Thus among men, not
unfrequently, we find those who by
their dress and the sauvity of their
manners pass quite currently, for a
while, in good society, but when
subjected to the crucible they are
found wanting in the requisites of
true manhood.
These characters usually are fine
strategists. They often manage to
flank suspicion and even ingratiate
themselves into the confidence and
esteem of the best people, and thus
on account of their associations
lay claim to and command the re
spect of their fellows. Sometimes,
however, the texture of the gar
ments, beneath which they attempt
to conceal their deformities, is so
thin, that detection and infamy
overtake them unawares.
High sounding words are often
accepted as bona fide evidence of
great literary attainment. Smooth
oily tongues and gentle manners as
proof positive of those gentle Chris
tian graces which make the true
woman, and demure faces, long
prayers and occasional alms giving
as good enough “titles to mansions
in the skies.” But fools often use
tho largest words. Shrews some
times have the sweetest tongues
and most bewitching manners, and
the Devil himself appears as an
angel of light. Tekel—has been
written of more than Belshazzar.
In conclusion I would venture a
little gratuitous advice to your
readers. Never effect to be what
you are not. Always be what you
ought. Never sail under false
colors, as pirates do. Do not annoy
people with senseless mannerism
and empty sounds. Be natural
and sincere, and as the great
Spurgeon says : “ Always label
your bottles honestly.”
Ominous.
The farmer’s surest speculations will
be in live stock and plough-shares

CRL'SAHKRS IN KEENE§-
BOIIO’.
Thursday evening, August 12th, at
7J o’clock, there might have been seen
in the hall and veranda of the rcsL
dence of the hospitable Mrs, M., an
assembly of persons young and middle
aged, children, boys, girls, ladies and
gentlemen, with eager countenances
and palpitating hearts evidently bent
upon the accomplishment of some
special object. The scene is changed
and flow assumes a military aspect, as
in double file and long column the
crowd makes ready to march.
The Colonel of the regiment, (Dr.
M ,) heads the column, giving in war
like tones bis commands, among which
is one for the maintenance of strict
silence throughout the ranks. Con
spicuous among the other officers are
Mrs. M., Mrs. E., Mrs. A., Mrs. Dr.
M., Mrs. 1., and Mrs. LaG.
Glance at this column now as it is
nearly ready to move and as the moon
shines with ominous rays all along its
line. Is this anew crusade gotten up
to enforce women’s rights, or to over
throw the liquor traffic in our city ?
Something important is to be done,
you may see this in the general appear
ance of the regiment, in the glances of
gallant Captain H. at that fair and
courageous first lieutenant, Miss P.,
who stands at his left; in the mysteri
ous whisperings of that hero, Mr. C. TANARUS.,
and heroine, Miss J. D ; in the hasty
steps of that brave knight, Mr. K.,
who being delayed reaches the ranks
just in time to hear the command
'* March.” The soldiers in this regi
ment are completely armed, but their
arms are concealed. Some are con
cealed in brown paper, some between
stout strips of pasteboard, others are
sheathed in glass, others in thick lay
ers of earthenware.
Every thing is now ready, the march
is begun. The column moves toward
the South. It reaches Miller’s black
smith shop. It files left moving toward
the East. The momentous period of
the march is near at hand. Behold!
the column stops in front of the resi
dence of ltev. C. H. Strickland. It is
understood by the crusaders that this
is the point of attack. The first charge
is successful. The bulwarks in front
are passed, the door of the castle is
entered, the crusaders move in solid
phalanx through the corridor, and
more successful than Peter the Hermit,
the brave colenel sees the object of the
first crusade upon the point of accom
plishment. Strange to say after such
gallant and successful action all the
arms of the regiment are ordered
stacked in the corridor, and the com
mand for retreat is immediately given.
The latter is made successfully, thanks
to a strategetical movement boldly con
ceived and bravely accomplished.
About this time the occupants of the
castle become aroused to the state of
affairs. Upon examination they find
that the enemy has left, but not before
voluntarily surrendering all his weapons
—weapons completely or very nearly
hidden in paper, pasteboard, &c., &c.
An inspection of these is in due time
begun, when it is soon discovered that
instead of a band of hostile crusaders, a
number of the most sincere friends has
marched through the house and that
this stack of arms is nothing more nor
less than a quantity of good things too
numerous and various to mention, left
as tokens of appreciation, friendship
and Christian love.
In fact, Rev. C. H. Strickland, the
beloved and talented pastor of tho Bap
tist church at this place, and his esti
mable lady, had received a very short
visit from a number of his flock and
friends of himself and family, and it
was only in the bundles left that the
visitors expressed the object of their
call.
The crusade was first proposed by
two kindhearted and zealous Baptist
ladies, and was gotten' up and carried
out almost entirely by the ladies, who
continue to be the first in “ every good
word and work.” Crusader.

To the Sunday Schools of Georgia:
I respectfully but earnestly urge the

to unite in a general concert of prayer
for the conversion of the Sunday School
children of the State, and an increase
of the power of the Sunday
School for good, on Sunday and Mon
day, October 17th and 18tb, at such
hours as may be most convenient. The
Sunday Schools of Europe have select

the camel’s back.

Returned.
Mr. James F. Hart has put in an
appearance after an absence of six
weeks. He says lie has bad a splendid
time, and returns to business very
much refreshed. He reports fine crops,
fine scenery, and fine everything, but
admires more than anything else he
saw, the social, intelligent Freeman of
that beautiful country.
A Foolish Habit.
A great many people are constantly
interspersing their conversation with
the phrase “ You know.” No matter
what they are talking about, they keep
repeating “ you know,” when in fact
we don’t know. The very fact that
they are talking, and that we are lis
tening, supposes that we don’t know.
It is a habit they have, and perhaps
they do not know they have it. But it
is a foolish one, nevertheless. The
beauty of conversation lies in its cor
rect phraseology, freed from all verbi
age—properly chosen words, spoken in
a respectful and pleasant tone of voice.
There is nothing so charming as chaste
and elegant conversation.
Tlie Necessity for Work,
There has been a great deal said and
written about the dignity of labor, the
honor there is in soiled hands and sun
burnt faces, homespun clothes and cali
co dress, and all that—but the plain
fact that labor is a necessity, and can
not be dispensed with, has not been
talked straight to the people as it
should be. Necessity is said to be “the
mother of invention,” and it is true,
and that other old adage, that “ an idle
brain is the devil’s work shop,” is true
as well. Work is absolutely the normal
condition of mankind, for the edict was
pronounced through Adam as a repre
sentative, to the whole human race
without exception. Even lazy, profli
gate negroes are not excepted, although
they make themselves so, and we have
to be the sufferers. Work being a
necessity, the question is, do we work
enough ? We are not going to say any
thing about how work should be done,
when it should be done, or whether
this, that or the other work will pay,
but do we work enough ? We mean,
do we work as many days in the week,
or as many hours in the day as we
should? That is the question. There
are a few classes of workers, who, from
the nature of the business they have,
work enough, and perhaps a few have
to work too much. But how is it with
the producing class, that great class
that makes and moves the commerce of
the world ? Do they work enough ?
Of course we refer to our own section,
for that is the one with which we have
to do, and the view we take of the sub
ject applies to the whites as well as the
blacks, but more particularly to the
latter, as they are the great body of
workers. Let us take an average farm
and see how it stands. The hands get
to their work at an hour to an hour and
a half by sun, and knock off at half
past eleven to twelve. They return at
two to half past two, and quit by sun
set or half an hour before, and by com
mon consent lose every Saturday. How
much, reader, do you suppose that will
foot up. of the time that should be em
ployed in actual labor ? Not counting
the time idled away while they are pre
tending to work. Will it reach one
third? We think not. Is it any
wonder that we have hard times, short
crops, debts unpaid and no money in
our pockets ? Is it reasonable to ex
pect that it would bo otherwise? Our
troubles and failures, as a rule, are not
for want of soil or seasons. Naturo is
faithful and true, and if we did our
duty as well as she, this country would
blossom as the rose and smiling plenty
bless the laud. This is plain talk, but
we think it to the point. Let us go a
little farther, and see what the result
would be, if we worked out the full
time. Would we have to mortgage
everything we had, except our wives
and children, to get supplies with
which to make a crop? Would we
have to pay fifty, sixty and up to a hun
dred per cent, above cash prices for
these supplies ? We certainly would
not, for we would have the supplies,and
money to buy what' else we needed.
We firmly believe that if the proper
amount of honest, faithful labor was
performed, that the country would take
anew start in prosperity, and in a few
years become one o? the greatest coun
tries in the world. Besides, work is a
blessing, a positive blessing to every*
body. It is a blessing morally, socially
and financially. Then why not have
more of it ?

rpOE UNDERSIGNED HAVING pnr-
JL chased the county right of Greene
County to the above mentioned invention
are prepared to bore wells on short notice
upon reasonable terms,and with the utmost
dispatch. Those who have been accus
tomed to the old system of well digging,
with its plodding drudgery, expense and
delay, can form no adequate idea of the
manner in which such herculean tgsks
may be accelerated,until they try GJLTZ’S

It bores a beautiful, uniform, cylindrical
well, with a smooth perpendicular wall, at
an expense of only one dollar per foot,com
pleted—at the rate of 50 to 100 feet per day.
Any one wanting a well without much
trouble or expense, will do well to give us a
trial. Those who have favored us with
their patronage pronounce our machine
one of the most useful of modern inven
tions, and Giltz a benefactor of his race,
one before which even Keely’s hydropneu

hide his diminished head. Ye
