Excellent Skill.
Tho skill and ea*e with which Mr.

serving of a special mention. The rais
ing of tho monument was pronounced
impossible l>y many experienced gentle
men, bet with an arrangement of several
ladders, ropes an i pulleye, tbe delicate
and dangerous job was performed. Mr.
Johnston is a mechanical genin?, and tho
essy and safe erection of the monument
was quits a triumph of skill.

ment and the crowd, taken during the

A Disappointment.
Many of our citizens will be disap
pointed to learn that Rev. Dr. DeWitt
TaJmsge will not deliver bis lecture iu
Macon as was announced. A brief tele
gram from Mr. Tslmage yeeterday an
nounced that he was compelled by inex
orable circumstances to postpone tbe
lecture until autumn. We regret this
both on account of onr people and on ac
count of the Memorial Association, for
which he was to lecture, as be would have
drawn a Tory large crqwd.
History of Bibb County. Macon. Fort
Hawkins, tbe Indians, etc.
Ws learn froiu Mr. J. 0. Bntler, the
author and oompiler of tbo Historical
Record of Msoon, etc., that bis work is
ready for pnblioation. The book will
contain a business directory of tbe city
at tbe present time.
Mr. Bntler will canvass for subscribers
this week. Farther notice of tbe book
will be made in a few days. - It oontains
tbe origin cf every church, college, acad
emy, railroad, benevolent society, enter
prise, etc., in the city, and should bo in
every family in the connty.
Wo know of no gentleman so eminently
qualified to be tbe author of snehawork
as this history, from long years resi
dence and intimate acquaintance with the
people and surroundings of Msoon. We
sincerely hope onr people will encourage
Mr. Butler in his undertaking.
Breaking Into the Corner Stone.
Yesterday quite a ripple of excitement
was created by tbe report that some one
had broken into and robbed tbe oorner
stone of tbe monnment. Tbe news soon
pread end a large orowd gathered around
tbe granite block. Tbe place in which
the box was plsoed was found empty.
Ths box bad, however, been carefally re
moved ihe evening before by one ot tbe
committee to a place of security. Many
were deceived by ths rnmor, and nDtil

This is (be ccieeiasticsl tribunal, at which
tbo F. E. Block matter, the desoon of the
Central Preebyteiian Caurch of Atlanta,
who bss been indefinitely suspended from
the charcb, will be considered.
This case will be made a test one with
the Church, and bas excited great interest
all over tbe conntry. The press from
Boston to New Orleans have made men
tion of tbe oase, and many eyes a
watching it with great intentness.
Lawbhscxvillr, Ga., April, 1878.
Editors Telegraph and Messenger
Tho Presbytery met at Lawrenceville
on tho night of the 24th instant.
The opening Bermon was delivered by
Rev. Dr. Leftwich, of Atlanta, from the
text “And tbe apostles and elders came
together for to ccniider of this matter."
Acts XV. chapter, 6th verse.
This entiro chapter was read in connec
tion with the sermon which follow:
the substince of which, without directly
asserting so to be, was nevertheless the
opening gun in behalf of the action o*
the Central Presbyterian Church, of At'
lan'x, in the matter of the erpc'sioD
Deacon Block.
Considerable surprise and censu:e has
been expressed by many cl the members
of tho Presbytery as to tbo expediency
and feolieg of this discourse.
After the’sermcn was delivered, tho
body was organiz'd, and it was found
that sixteen clergymen and twenty-one
lay delegates were present. The meeting
then adjourned to the 25tb.
Tho following is a synopsis of the pro
ceedings bearing on thiainterceling ques
tion:
iiev. James Stacy D. D , of Nevrnan
was elected Moderator.
The rout inn work of permanent organ
ization, the repoits of eommit’cee, etc.
was gone through with.
Tho even tenor of business was, how
over, somewhat unexpectedly disturbed
Rev. J. H. Martin, of Atlanta, moved
that the body go into the election of com
misaioners to the General Assembly, and
nominated Rev. John Jonc-s D. D., of At
lanta, and Layman W. A. Moore, as the
commissioners.
Mr. Wtolf, of Newnan, nominal sd Mr
Russell as the lay delegate.
Dr. Leftwich took the floor, and moved
to poatpone tbe election until later in the
session, earnestly opposing any present
action.
Mr. Van McKibben opposed postpone'
mint on tbe ground of not wishing
faction but the entire body represented.
After debate tbo matter was postponed
by a small majority.
This vote was not regarded ax a teat.
In tbe afternoon tbe session was re.
earned, and was devoted principally to
the reading of reports from various
churches, etc., and afterward from tbo
ministers,
Tbe appeal of Mr. T. E. Block was
then laid before the bedy by the Mcdera'
tor and is as follows:
Atlanta, Ga., February 15, 1878,
Rev. J. T. Leftwich, Moderator of the Ses
sions of the Central Presbyterian Church,
Atlanta,^Georgia:
I hereby notiry you of my purpose to
appeal from the sentence or decison of
the seuaion of said church in the case
against mo for permitting ana encour
aging dancing at an entertainment given
at my houBe. By said decision I am
suspended from the privileges of a church
member until I repent. I hereDy appeal
from said decision to tho Presbytery, of
which this church is a component part.
I take this appeal because tbe charges
preferred against me do not make out
an offence under the law of God and this
church.
There is no proof that any one sinned
in the dance in'que9tion at my house.
There is no proof that I caused any
body yonng or old to sin at my house.
There is no preof that the dancing
done on the occasion in question was in
any way sinful.
For these reasons the session erred in
patsieg sentenoo of suspension upon me
and I rnpeotfnlly appeel to the Presby
tery, and pray a suspension of the son'
tence in aocordanoe with tbe rnles of tho
obnreb. Frank E. Block.

The skill and ease with which Colonel
C. M. Wiley commanded the Battalion
on Memorial Day was frequently re
marked. That was the first time since
his election tbat he has commanded the

In the list of veterans several slight

and was afterward appointed Captain in
Florida.
Mr. J. S. Cargill was A. A. G. in Wil

Tke Charter flak.
Mr. Geo. W. Barr has scoured tbe
agenoy of the oelsbrated Charter Oak
stoves. These stoves have enjoyed a
fine repntation.for years, and if there is
any better stove in tbe market we do not
know it.
There is nothing tbat adds so much to
a man’s moral, mental and spiritual equil
ibrium as to have well done and whole
some biscuits and other breads and meats.
These adjuncts to happiness can be ob
tained by using the Charter Oak, and all
good house wives beside this new Char
