Cctbbert has teemed with sable divines, and
de tinkle of “ tbe ebarch-going bell" has been

iotaerges who bold forth in divers pieces. Two
j -ndred and fifty delegates, representing nearly

According to usage, the moderator occupied
the pnlpit of tbe Baptist Ghnrch (white) at 11
„ clock, which bad been kindly tendered by its
paator, Ur. Campbell. From early dawn to the
hour of worship, a stream of vehicles of every
chancier, from tbo primitive go-eart drawn by
a single bollock, to tbe mors pretentious ba-
r >nche or buggy, and tbe ponderous plantation
wagon crammed to overflowing with yonng and
eld, poured into the groves and vaoant spaces
of the town. At least 11000 were in attendance ;
and gleaming ivory, happy smiles, and costumes
siring with tbe rainbow in their hnoa, greeted
tie vision on every aide. Soon every seat in the
spacious building was occupied, and oven tbe
ilairs were crowded with listeners, many of

TDK SERMON
iu based upon the simple passago of Soriptnre,
"For tbe lore of Christ oonstraineth me.” It was
a practical, fervent appeal to his hearers, de
void of pretention, ana thongh wanting in ele
gance and rhetorical finish, was deeply interest-
ing at least to the writer. The speaker said he
was no “politicianer," nor did he desire oiliee,
or wish to degrade tbo pnlpit by in allusion to
politics. Had ho received a good education,
ud been born a genins, be might have been
tempted to preach tbe gospel for fame-, bnt now
the lore of Cbriat only oonatrained him to do ad.
Is pawiing through SmtthviUe, be had met a
lady friend who begged him to get tho Associa
tion to alienee those ignorant ministers who are
doing no much injury to the ohoreh and people.
He felt bound to aay that they who ware not
e'lelopreach were not called npon to do bo;
■ad like tbe blind leading the blind, both they
ad their bearers most fall into the ditch. If
ay of you wished to send your children to
ksooI, wonld yon select a teacher who did not
know A from B ? Bnt is it not equally absurd
lo npeet to have the Bible expounded, and to be
acknowledge that Germany is vastly indebted to
tho master-intellect of Oevonr. It will, hence
forth, be the aim of every French ruler, whether
be be a President, King or Emperor, to destroy
German unity. Woe, then, to the Italians,
should France ever succeed in this task. To
arrange a definitive treaty of alliance to which
Italy is said to have already given her adheaion,
the Emperor of Germany and Austria will have
another meeting in Salzburg. There the Bom un
ion question will also be discussed. The
present difficulties with Romania originated in a
great railway contract. Strousberg, a well known
Berlin contractor, had made with the govern-
meat of Prince Charles. Strousberg had the
roads built partly with bands furnished by a
committee of Berlin Bankesa, partly with the
proceeds of obligations the interests of which
were guaranteed by Ronmania. Almost this
whole stock is owqed in Germany. The roads
being now almost finished, the Chamber haa
passed a resolution refusing to refund the cap
ital borrowed in Berlin, as well as to pay the
interest guaranteed, on the ground that the
roads were badly built, that the rolling stock
consisted of old worn-out Prussian ears, etc.,
etc. In vain did the Government, denying
these allegations, protest and state that the
work had been faithfully executed; the deputies
did not wish to be convinced, and Prince
Charles, though reluctantly, was compelled to
add his signature to the bill. The Prussian
Government, anxious to protect German inter
ests valued at many million dollars, appealed
to tbe Sultan, as tho Suzrain of Ronmania, and
proposed to bring tbe question before a Con
gress of the powers which signed the treaty of
Paris. Tnrkey, however, having declined to
do this, Prussia endeavors to gain one or two
of the powers over to her views for the purpose
of forcing tho Sultan to a European Congress.
Perhaps the Emperors of Germany and Aus
tria may also wish to come to an understanding
in reference to the poliey towards the preten
sions of Rome.
The Prussian Government seems to be de
termined to make a meat decided stand against
the Papal Syllabus. Tbe Berlin “Provincial
oorrespondanz," thus comments on the situation:
"The Government," the paper says “are clearly
justified, after they had vainly warned the
council of tho dangerous results of its resolu
tions in refusing to lend their assistance to the
promulgation of such principles. Thongh the
Prussian Government viewed them from the
first with disapproval and regret, it had suffi
cient confidence in its own stability and the
good sense of its subjects to refrain from im
posing any restrictions npon the fall religions
liberty of the catholics. It haa not forbidden
any bishop, clergyman, or teacher to propagate
the dogmas of the council. It has only refosed
to lend the assistance of tbe temporal arm to
compel catholic teachers to inenloate, in oppo
sition to the dictates of iheir conscience—prin
ciples which, in the opinion of the Government,
have not only introduced important changes
into tbe creed of tbe church, bnt also modified
in many very important respects her relations
with the State. The question new at issue is
not, whether tho Government will acknowledge
a religious dogma as such; this it leaves to the
conscience and religious liberty of every indi
vidual catholic. What it is now called upon to
decide is, whether it will lend its legal influence
to support a dogma which it considers fatal to
the existing relations between the chnrch and
tho State.”
On the authority of the Vienna Free Press it
is reported that the Prussian Government ia
determined to close all Catholio colleges, should
tbe Bishops oontinue to persecute those teachers
who decline to submit to the new dogma. The
Bishop of Paderborn, Westphalia, on the occa
sion of tbe Papal jabilee had issued a pastoral
letter in which the flattering epithet of “Bob
ber" wad bestowed ppon King Victor EmanneL
His Eminenoe, after having been tried for this
offence, was found guilty and ia said to have
been oondneted to a Prussian fortress.
The Frankfort Journal states that in Offen-
baeh six families, consisting of thirty-five per
sons, have seceded from the Roman Church, on
account of the conflict arising from the procla
mation of the infaUibility of tho Pope.
Also in Southern Germany the old Catholic
party ia gaining ground among the educated
classes. In Bavaria they have began to perform
the marriage ceremony after the Council of
Trent, whenever a priest refuses to marry peo
ple who are excommunicated. Brido and bride
groom call on the priest, and, having stated that
they will take each other, for better or worse,
they join hands before him, which ceremony
constitutes s legal marriage, no matter whether
he sanations it or not.
In Wenrzbnrg.Weurtenbarg, Professor Reiss-
mann, who is decidedly opposed to Papal infalli
bility, has been elected Rector of the University
there.
After a most violent debate the French As
sembly was declared to be possessed of consti
tuent powers. Thiers' term of offloe was also
prolonged. Gambetta, who most fiercely op-
untrue ted in theology by men who oonld not __ m
mn road God’s Word? Bach men did more a^nmptira at^Utnrat'rawere,
tana than good, and should not be allowed to
preach at all. The prineipal object of Us dis
course was lo advocate the claims of a colored
Ihcologioal Seminary to be located at Atlanta,
(or the express purpose of qualifying candidates
for Ihe ministry. And here bo would publicly
proclaim, that no yankoe, or carpet-bagger,
vould be allowed to have anything to do with
this Institution. Its professors wonld be South-
em white men in whom tbe colored people had
temfiienct, He then paid a touching tribute to
tho services of Kev. Mr. Warron and others, in
iheir efforts to instruct the colored ministers,
and said he was a staunch friend of that glo
rious seat of learning, Meroer University.
Tbe sermon over, a collection was taken np,
to which the whites preaent contributed liber-
ally.
RXV. GREEN MCARTHUR.
Before concluding this sketch we feel that it
is but just to relate an inoident which occurred
at the close of the Moderator’s sermon. Rev.
Green McArthur, a respected citizen of this
place, read tbe last hymn and directed tho col
lection. He was interrupted by • black brother
on tho floor, however, who addressed the
Meeting and claimed that thewUte people, hav
ing been educated by negro labor, were bound
now to giTe freely to the enterprise under oon-
conaidc ration. In reply, McArthur stated from
the pulpit, that he was compelled to differ, “re-
hgioosly, however,” from the brother who had
juat taken his seat. If the negroes in slavery
tinea had helped to educate their masters, it
*»s beesnss they were forced to do so, and it
*** likewise their duty as faithful servants.
They had no right then to elaim any merit in
the premises, nor should they ask assistance of
the whites in such a spirit. We challenge the
records of the country to furnish • nobler in-
■tanee of true moral eonrage than was here af
forded.

John Piowhandlcs.
Near IJtron. Houton Gountt, Ga.,1
September 5,1871. >
Editors Telegraph and Messenger: “John
Plowhandles,” in the Septenqjier number of the
Farm and Home, is down npon the way onr
daddies did, and wishes somebody wonld muzzle
“Plain Farmer,” from near Byron, Houston
county.
No doubt bnt he wishes my mouth was her
metically sealed, as I will, in apite of him, occa
sionally show np the absurdity of his preten
tions. “Plowhandles" professes to be a firstrste
scientific farmer, and so he is on paper. He.
talks fanning and writes farming very well.
I haven't the smallest idea, however, that he
ever lost a drop of sweat in his life following
the plowhandle, and donbt, capitally, his ever
nailing on a plowhandle, or ever tying a hame-
atripg. “Plowhandles" is all tho time writing
about five or six bushels of corn per acre and
two hundred pounds of seed cotton per acre.
Now if he has ever attempted to farm at all,
that is about the amount of corn and cotton he
made on his plantation, and thepoorfellow thinks
every crop in the whole country is like
“ITowhandles” seems to have wretched mules
on the brain. No doubt hia mules look as bnl
and aa wretched as they well can. I guess he
does not see them fed and watered often, as he
spends so znuch time in reading tbe works of
Toll, Von Thaer, London, Liebig and others of
equal eminence. Planters that farm on paper
in a comfortable room, with a pitcher of ice
water by their side, generally baTe poor, wretch-
ed looking mules, and everything else on their
plantation looks very bad, uso.
My friend F. talks very fluently shout Bou-
staganlt, Buel, Sanford and others and general
ly sprinkles in the usual amount about subsoil-
ing and under drainage. This class of fanners
generally make from three to five bushels of
com per acre, and everything else on the plan-
tation in proportion. “Plowhandles" knows too
much about Bousinganlt and Liebig to make a
successful fanner. He makes poor crops, and
no donbt ha feels bad, and if an opportunity
offers he bolts for some sgricuUnral convention
'and endeavors to obtain consolation by drafting
highfalutin resolutions ssd delivering b uncomb
speeches.
“Plowhandles" seems to be very bitter in
deed ; he says our instincts are as blnnt as onr
scooters. That may be so. We do cot pretend
to be as sharp, intellectually, as the gifted
“Plowhandles.’’ Dull as I am i can assure him
that if be continues to sit in his fine rooms and
read Tull, Von Thaer, London, Liebig, Voelck-
er and others too tedious to mention, and con
tinues wasting his time talking about subsoil!rig
and under drainage, he Will soon find his
pockets as empty as his cribs, and ho himslf
will be as bare of flesh as hia -old poverty strick
en mules.
It is common at this time for the so-called
scientific to call snch men as Tarver and Everett
fogies. Yea, men that made princely fortnoes
farming, no now called by a few upstarts fo
gies of the old Bip Van Winkle order. When
Tarver and Everett died they were very rich, and
they made their fortunes, if I am correctly in
formed, by farming. Yes, they were rich, and
strange to asy, they never heard of Bousinganlt
or Voeicker. “Plowhandles" says much about
galded spots and wretched moles. Aa to grided
spots, I have none on my plaoe. Yea, wretched
moles is his words, bnt I stand ready to bet that
my mules are in as fine a condition as hia. I have
plowed some of them twenty years. I have
one on the farm that haa plowed on an average
forty-five acres every year for the last twenty-
four years. She is fat and sleek now at this
time.
‘Plowfaandles" says my neighbors do not
agree with me. This I deny. They utterly rt*
padiate the abominable theories of “Plow-han
dles,” and they say if snch expensive farming
as he reoommends waa pnt into practice, that it
would break every farmer in the country in a
few years. Now, I am going to make a sweep
ing assertion. I have plowed deeper and ma
nured heavier than any man in Georgia. On
my experimental plat of seven acres last year,
I applied thirty loads of lot manure broadcast
and plowed it in with a two-horse Brinly, send
ing the plow in to the beam, and then run in
the same farrow with Murphy's subsoiler. I
then applied 540 pounds of guano in the drill,
and on a quarter of an mere I applied at the rate
of a thousand pounds of guano per acre, and
forty bnahela of ootton seed. “Plowhandles”
himself wonld call that heavy manuring, wonld
he not ? Whore I manured so heavy I made a
heavy bale per acre and yet it did not pay. A por
tion of the patch I broke with a one-horse turn
ing shovel. I made as much ootton there aa
where the land was broke fifteen inches deep.
“Plowhindlea" would have the people believe
that “Plain Farmer” opposes manuring the
lands. Not so, however. Last year I cultivated
320 acres. I used 2,000 bushels of ootton seed
and 23 tons of guano. How is that for high,
“Plowhandles ?’ ?
“Plowhandles,” wonld create the impression,
if he oonld, that I regard snch men as Hr.
Dixon and Simpson aa upstarts. I do not say
any snch thing. As evidenoe of sincerity I
have adopted Mr. Dixon’s system of farming,
because I believe it pays. I cultivated one
hundred and forty acres in com this year,
with eight furrows to six feet rows. Had my
sweep been twenty-six inches wide, it would not
have required but five. The entire crop will
average fifteen bushels per acre. I never used
anthing in my crop after it was planted bat the
Dixon sweep.
In 18G7,1 ran a two horse farm. That squad
was under my control and worked as I directed
them. I made on that little farm fifty bales of
ootton, one hundred bushels of com, and two
hundred bushels of potatoes. At that time I
did not know that the distinguished gentlemen
Tull, Yon Thaer, Loudon, Liebig, Bousinganlt,
and others ever existed on the face of the earth.
Neither did I have the enlightened “Plowhan-
dlea” to instmot me. I did not use one pound
of guano on that crop. Last year my crop suf
fered severely with drouth, but notwithstanding
all the draw backs, I made ninety bales of cot
ton and 1464 bushels of com with fourteen
hands and only workod them five and a half
days in the week.
I know a yonng man that rented a plantation
this year, and is to give fifty bales rent for it,
and I am reliably informed that he was offered,
a month ago, $7,000 profit and he be at no more
trouble about the business. I call that good
farming. Now, I will make a lively bet that
that young man never heard of Bonsingault or
Liebig, and furthermore, I doubt his ever read
ing ten pages in any agricultural magazine in
hia life. I do not think he knows much about
,my friend “Plowhandles.” That young man
was taught how to farm by his daddy, and
taught in the fields. He was not taught in a
fine room with the floor carpeted and a pitcher
of ice water by his side.
I have a son, 18 years of age, and one negro
boy (and a very trifling negro he ia) that have
made 400 bushels of com, and I think he will
make twelve bales of cotton, and did not use
any manure at all on his cotton. He had, how-
ever, seme advantages that other young men
did not possess. His path has been mado plain
by the writings of the gifted “Plowhandles"
ho has read Iris letters once a month.
I am opposed to erecting a college for agri
cultural purposes at the expense of the State.
“Plowhandles” speaks of the State endowing
the oollego liberally. I will oppose any such
proceeding as long as I live. Farmers can never
be made in colleges and in the little truck-patches
connected with the institution. The plantation
is the place to train them. There is one class
that it will benefit. A lot of professors will have
to be employed. They wonld have n fat time
at the expense of tho State. And the very men
that would get tho situations would not know as
much about practical farming as a common
negro. If you wish to make farmers of your
sons, put them on the plantation under intelli
gent, practical farmers, and there thoy will learn
all that is necessary for them to know, to make
them successful planters. Do not put thorn
under a set of bigoted, fat, ignorant, lazy pro-
fessors at some agricultural oo liege. If yon do,
they will spoil your boys. When they return
they will be too proud to work and probably not
able to live without it.
Now I am done with yon, “Plowhandles.
I have written in a good spirit, and would not
write otherwise. I would not under any con
sideration wound the feelings of my friend P.
If I have written anything that irritates or
wounds the feelings of the gentleman, I here-
by beg his pardon in advance. I will close by
hoping that “Plowhandles" will always have
good lack on his little track patches, as he
seems to have a great fancy for pop-corn, grass
nuts and luoerne, and such like. Now you may
consider Plain Farmer muzzled on this subject.
I suppose that will afford yon some consolation
if your truck patches should fail to make a
good yield. Plain Farmer.

Its Cure and Its Preventive.
By J. H. SOHENOK, M. 33.
M ANY a human being has passed away, for whose
death there was no other reason than the neglect
of known and indisputably proven means of care.
Tho5e near and dear to family and friends are sleep*
ing the dreamless slumber into which, had they calmly
adopted
DIC. JOSEPH H. SCnEXCK’S SIMPLE
TREATMENT.
and availed themselves of his wonderful efficacious
medicines, they would not hare fallen. Dr. bchenck
has in his own ease proved that wherever sufficient
vitality remains that vitality, by his medicines and
his directions for their use. te quickened into health*
* il viror.
In this statement there is nothing presumptuous.
To the faith of the invalid is made no representation
that ia not a thousand times substantiated by living
and visible works. The theory of the cure by Dr.
Schcnck’s medicines is as simple as it is unfailing.
Its philosophy requires no argument. It is self-
assuring, self-convincing.
The Beawood Tonie and Mendrake Pills are the first
two weapons with which tha citadel of the ma'&dy is
assailed. Two«thirds of the cases of consumption
originate in dyspepsia and a functionally disordered
liver. With this oondition the bronchial tabes ’ sym
pathise” with the stomach. They respond to the
morbific action of the liver. Here then comes the
culminating result, and the setting in. with all its dis
tressing symptoms, of
CONSUMPTION.
The Mandrake Pills are composed ol one of Nature’s
oblest gifts—the Podophlllum Felt *
■ess all the blood-searching, alterat
calomel, but unlike calomel, they
“LEAVE NO STING BEHIND.”
The work of cure is now beginning. The vitiated
and mucous deposits in the bowels and in the ali
mentary canal are ejected. -The liver, like a clock, is
wonnd np. It arouses from its torpidity. The stom
ach acts responsively, and the pationt begins to feel
that he is getting, at last.
A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonie, in conjunction with tbe Pills
permeates and arslmilatej with tho food. Chylifica-
tiou is now progressing without its previous tortures*
Digestion becomes painless, and the cure is seen to be
at hand. There is no more flatulence, no exeexbation
of the stomach. An appetite sets in. -
Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever yet
iven by an indulgent father to suffering man.
-Bhonek’s Pulmonic Syrup comes in to perform its
functions and to hasten aud com pi* to the cure. It
enters at once upon its work. Nature cannot be
cheated. It collects and ripens the impaired and dis
eased portions of the lungs. In the form of gather
ings, it prepares them for exreetoration, and lo 1 in a
very short time tho malady is vanquished, the rotten
throne that it occupied is renovated and made new,
and the patient, in all the dignity of regained vigor,
steps forth to enjoy tho manhood or tho womanhood
that was
GIVEN UP AS LOST.
The second thing is, tho patients must stay in a
warm room until they get well: it is almost impossi
ble to prevent taking cold when tho lungs are dis«
eased, but it must bo prevented or a euro cannot be
effected. Fresh air and riding out, especially in this
section of the country in the fall and winter season,
aro all wrong. Physicians who recommend that
course lose their patients, if their lungs are badly
diseased, and yet, because they are in the house they
must not sit down quiet; they must walk about tho
room as much and as fast as the strength will bear, to
get up a good circulation of blood. The patients
must keep in good spirits—be determ : ned to get well.
This has a great deal to do with tho appetite, and is
the great point to fwn. To despair of cure after such
evidence of its possibility in tho worst cases, and
moral certainty in all others, is sinful. Dr. Schenck’s
personal statement to tho Faculty of his own cure
wat in these modest words:
“Many years ago I was in the last, stages of con
sumption, confined to my bed. and at onetimomy
physicians thought that I could not live a week; then
like a drowning man catching at straws, I heard of
and obtained the preparations which I now offer to
the public, and they made a perfect cure of me. It
seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate my
whole eystem. They soon ripened the matter in my
lungs, and I would spit up more than a pint of offen
sive yellow matter every morning for a long time.
.Is soon ms that began to subside, my cough, fever,
pain and night sweats all began to leave me, and my
appetite became so great that it was with difficulty
that I could keep from eating too much. I soon
gained my strength and have grown in flesh ever
since.**
•*I was weighed shortly after my recovery.** added
the Doctor. *’then looking liko a mero skeleton; my
weight was only ninety-seven pounds; roy present
weight is two hundred and twenty-five (225) pounds,
and lor years 1 have enjoyed uninterrupted health.* 1
Dr. Sehenck has discontinued his Professional visits
to New York and Boston. Ho or nis son. Dr. J. H.
Schenek, Jr., still continue to see patients at their
office. No. 15 North Sixth street, Philadelphia, every
Saturday from 9 a, m. to 3 p. m. Thoso who wish a
thorough examination with the Respirometer will be
charged $5. Tho Eespirometer declares the exact
cofidit on of the lungs, and patients con readily learn
whether they are curable or not.
The directions fortakingthe medicinesareadapted
to the intelligence even of a child. Follow these di
rections. and kind Nature will do the rest, excepting
that in some eases the Mandrake Pills are to be taken
in increased doses: the three medicines need no other
accompaniments than the ample instructions that ao-
company them: Pint create appetite. Of returning
health hunger is tho most welcome symptom. When
it c jmes, as it will come, let the despairing at onco
be of good cheer. Good blocd at oneo follows, the
cough loosens, the night sweat is abated. In a short
time both of these morbid symptoms are gone forever.
Dr. Schenck's medicines sre constantly kept intern
cf thousands of families. As a laxative or purgative
the Mandrake Pills are a standard preparation ; while
the Pulmonic Syrup, as a curerof coughs and colds,
may be regarded as a prophyloctcric against con
sumption in any of its forms.

PATENT EXCELSIOR COTTON GIN
F OB the paBt forty years I have been engaged in
the manufacture of Cotton Gins, and havo set
to work on plantations, and have seen in opcra.ion
hundreds of Gins, and hive no hesitancy in pro
nouncing this the BEST WORKING GIN I ever
saw. It runs light—gins fast—does not injure the
cotton—lmposeibie to break the roll—no use for
seir-feeders—and no trouble to feed. Tho commit
tee at tho late Bibb County Agricultural Fair, being
so well satisfied of its superiority over anything
they over saw, awarded mo tho premiujn. I am
now prepared to furnish any ono in want of a Gin.
A. sample of Excelsior and also of tho Griswold
Gin can bo eeen at Oaihart A Curd’s Hardware
Store, Macon, Ga. Send for deaenriptive li»t.

Griswold Cotton Gin.
I will continue to manufacture tho celebrated
Griswold Cotton Gin, a Gin that has given nniver
sal satisfaction, and out of all tho Gins I sold the
past two yoare, but one single complaint, and not
one Gin returned. Every Gin warranted. A sam
ple can be seen at Carliart A Curds Hardware
Store, J. Collins A Son’s, S&ulsbury, Rospoas A Co.’a
or W. W. Parker’s.
