Mt. Vernon, Ga.
Ed. Herald it Georgian; Dear
Sir: I write according to promise a
short article iu your excellent paper
about this part of the country and
my work and travel. My work prin
cipally lies in Montgomery, though
I have some work both in Emanuel
aud Tattnall counties, but I propose
in this to speak only of Mt. Vernon
and her people. Mt. Veruon is an
old town and in some respects pre
sents an old appearance, pleasantly
situated out in the pine forest about
a mile from the Oconee river. I find
the people of Mt. Vornon very gen
erous aud social. Since I com men
ccd coming among them I havo re
ceived several tokens of kindness
and n cordial welcome greets me eve
rywhore. There are about 20 fam
ilies iu aud near the town the most
of whom are men of business
There are seven places of business
in town, and all have a very good
stock of all the leading nrtioles usu
ally kept iu a supply store. There
is one physician and there are three
resident lawyers. Several new and
neat dwellings have gone up in the
last year or two, which gives the
place a new life-like appearance,
and there would be a demand for
several more if some of her good
people would make a little outlay in
that direction. The Presbyterian
church has rebuilt a very ueat house
of worship which adds much to the
looks of the place, which they very
generously open to the Methodist
church and also to the humble Bap
tist rambler in passing.
At the last term of the Superior
Court the Grand Jury authorized
the letting out of the jail for repairs
which was done and work com
menced but the contractor since has
left and the work suspended. The
town and people around are very
much elated over their newspaper,

This Work is Acceptable, Hope

If any such school or place is
known to you please write to me
about it at once.
For Christ and Ilis cause, for the
Biblo and the Sabbath, for our

let us gather into Sunday-schools
the children in Georgia. Remember
Jesus said “Feod my lambs.’’

Two Evangelists of Georgia, Geo.
Whitfield and Sam Jones, Compar
ed and Contrasted.
Rev. W. A. Candler iu tho Texas
Christian Advocate: Georgia has
been the head-quarters of two of the
most notable evangelists tho world
oversaw. Oue she imported, the
other she produced. One was
George Whitfield and tho other is
Sam Jones. Both did what iu mod
ern tiims is called evangelistic work
iu connection with work for orphan
asylums Whitfield established an
orphanage at Savannah, then the
capital of the colony; Jones resusci-
tated a languishing orphanage noar
Atlanta, tho present capital of tho
State.
The personal appearance of the
two presents a sharp contrast. Jones
is taller than was Whitfield. Whit
field was of fair complexion, with
regular features, eyes of dark blue,
graceful bearing, and altogether a
handsome per: on. Jones i of very
dark complexion, with angular fou
lures, wstloss, black c)us; a man of
ouieluss bearing, and ho was novel
accused of being handsome. Whit
field had a voice that excelled iu
melody and compass, and was fine
ly modulated. Jones has a voice
of'no very noticeable qualities,
oihtber good or bad. Wbitli Id wus
passionate in ids delivery, though
finished iu style, and could be hoard
sometimes at it distauce of two miles.
Jones is calm aud colloquiul in man
ner, taking ample time to preserve
a good style, but never taking the
pains to do. Ho can be beard by
his audience, and to boar him one
must come much closer than two
miles.
mfiy not be so done.
The descendants of the men who
persecuted George Whitfield now
garnish his tomb and siug his prai
bos. '1 he children of the men who
abuse Bam Jones will build his mou-
urneut. So it Is written, “Woe un
to yon, ye build the sepnlohrefc of
tho prophots and your fathers killed
them.” It is the property of uube-
iiof to hush its conscience for the
persecution of JiviDg prophets by-
praising dead ones.
It is the destiny of the prophet of
truth to be slain to-day and cation-
ized to-morrow. It belongs to false
prophets to dwell in kings’ houses
aud wear soft raiment. They are
but reeds wuviug iu tho wind, and
are saved the pain of breaking by
facility in bending.

A War Romance.
Mauy Macon people will remem
ber that iu 1864 and 1865 the city
hall and the old market house were
used us a hospital for wounded and
sick Confederate soldiers. The la
dies of the town constituted them
selves nurses, aud perhaps in no
other hospital iu the Confederacy
did the putiouts faro so well. One
day a lady went to tho hospital to
visit “her soldier." HI e was ac
companied by a very handsome
married lady,’ a refugee from New
Orleans. When they reached the
cot upon which the soldier lay
writhing with pain caused by the
recent amputation of Ids left arm,
they ministered to bis wants and
then sat by and cheered him with
gentle words of comfort. As they
were leaving the soldier requested
tho New Orleanu lady to give him a
small Confederate flag which she
wore upon her breast. She gave
him the flag, first wiitiDg her name
on the white bar. The soldier re
covered, the war ended, and he re
turned to his home in Alabama.
As sometniug not to be forgotten,
it should be mentioned that at tho
by any other speaker of his times;
uo man on our planet speaks to nu-
dieuces its largo ns those which
Jones addresses to-day.
Jouos has some udvar,tapes over
Whitfield. He is not submitted to
the persecutions which Whitfield
suffered. Other than an explosion
of dynamito under his stable, Jones
hus not been exposed to much per
sonal peril. Dangers beset Whit
field often. Jouos has the ad van
tuge of preachiug last. If Whitfield
aud the influences he set in motion
iu tho eighteenth century had never
been, Jones would have fared worse
iu tho nineteenth contury. The ser
mons of both abound in abuse
and both are loved by the peo
ple whom they abuse. Dr. Frank
lin said of Whitfield: “It was a
matter of speculation with mo to
observe thoiuflueuoo of his oratory
ou his hearers, aud how much thoy
admired and rospocte 1 him notwith
standing his common abuse of them,
by ussutiug thorn that they were
naturally half boasts and half dov
ils." Jones culls his heaters dogs,
pups and the like, and tells borne of
them he would not wipe his fool ou
them, and yet they stand by him.
They both preach long sermons nnd
make no apologies for it. Whitfield
was wont to preach for an hour nnd
a half. Jones does likewise, nnd
informs his hearers "if any of you
get your little tin cups fall before 1
am done you can rack out.” The
period of long sermons in the histo
ry of the church is the period of ro
vival power. A preacher whose 1
sermon is only bearable by being
short, delivers a sermon which might
almost as well have been left uu
said.
Both are severely dogmatic and
severely orthodox. All the great
revivalists were und aro—Luther,
Knox, Wesley, Jonathan, Edwards,
Finney, Moody, all. Plain people
aro beginning to understand, or
rather always did understand, that
God meant the liibie for populur
use, and therefore it is easily uu-
stood iu all es'ontial touching. They
have perforce always believed the
consensus of church dogma, set
forth its meaning, and that modern
times are not the days for dogmatic
discoveries. The great revivals
have proceeded from doctrinal ren
ovations, and not front doctrinal in
novations.
The sermons of both dononnoe
with warmth all lorius of worldli*
uess, especially worldly amusements
Thoy discovered that nothing is
more harmful to the children of this
world.’ When Whitfield preaobed
in Philadelphia, iu 1739, he broke
up the dancing Rohools and dosed
tho ball and concort rooms. Jones
quarreled w ith hor husband at the
table and, picked up a cherry tart
and threw it ut him, bat it missed
his bea i aud hit the motto “God
Bless Our Home,” and scattered all
over it. [Laughter.] And tho
cnildreu said: “Mamma missed pa
pa's head, but didn't she give the
motto hiiugvs ” [Laughter.] I’d
heap rather ltuve peace at .horn*
than abroad Borne women will
whip their children for figbtiug and
quarreling. The children have heard
yon and their father quarrel until
thoy don't think there is any harm
in it. If you could hear them they
would say, “ VVondor if marmna und
papa never think they ought to be
whipped for quarreling." Now, I
want ovory woman iu this house
who uevor quarreled before her chil
dren to stand up. [Great laughter,
during which a number of wutneii
aro-e.J Well, bless the Lord, wo
have got some here. [Great laugh

that can stand up and say they nev
er quarreled before their children.
Now, let us take it the other way.
All who do quarrel before their chil-

A Oulhoan county man, tho other

of this county to Baker, and one of
his mules had been attacked with
colic. The mnn was pretty fnll of
“bog juice," and in a maudlin way
endeavored to relievo the mule's
Hufferiugs. He hitched up and
started on his way, but before he
got out of town the team came to a
halt, and the old mule laid down
aud died. The man went to sleep
in the wagon and was not aware of
his loss until he had awakeped from
