FUNERAL sermon of henry
SHULTZ.
By Rev. W. G. Conutr, Pastor of the M.
E. Church, Avgusta , Ga.
“It is appointed unto men once to die, but
after that the judgement.”— Hebixws, ix. 27.
The frequent occurrence of death in every
community, disposes men to look with indiffer
ence and thoughtlessness on the mournful
spectacle this day presented before us. It is ex
pected the flowers and leaves will fade in au
tumn; it ia expected the sun will go down in
evening, and all look that old age, worn and bro
ken with labors, disappointments and sorrows,
should sink at last in death. The announce
ment of the death of Henbt Shultz was re
ceived as an event looked for by aii, for all must
die.
In early life an emigrant from the land which
gave birth to many of our forefathers, he set
tled in Augusta, and by the remarkable energy
for which he was distinguished soon amassed a
fortune. It was his to meet various vicissitudes
aod changes in- business. He was identified
with the growth of Augusta, and sn active
agent in its improvements. Unfortunate cir
cumstances led him to divert his energies from
the town of his adoption, and in July, 1821, he
founded a rival town on the opposite banks of
the Savannah. With fond recollection of his
native land, he named it Hamburg in honor of
his birth-place—to the prosperity and improve
ment of which, he devoted the remainder of
hia life and fortune. For several years past he
has, with a public spirit well worthy the decline
of such a life, employed his time and money to
■go improvement of the magnificent Hill and
Park which bear his name. H ere amidjthe groves
and walks prepared by his taste he calmly wait
ed his end. Though many may not aprove the
rival sp'rit which prompted his works, none can
fail to award him the praise well merited by en
terprise and energy. Future generations in Au
gusta as well as Hamburg will cherish the
name of Hekky Shultz as synonymous with
energy and enterprise. But it is in the shade of
this beautiful Park that his name shall be re
peated oftenest and with the greatest respect.
Here he shall live again in the smile of youth
and beauty, as they enjoy together the pleasure
of this retreat. Here the man oi business when
retiring from his cares shall remember with
gratitude the mind which conceived and the
energy which accomplished so noble a work as
this asylum of care and retreat of business.
To-day all work is stopped, all sounds are hush
.ed upon this hill, for Shultz is dead. His ener
gy could overcome other foes, his ingenuity
could remove other difficulties, but for death he
had no weapon, and against his approach no
resource. For “it is appointed unto men once to
die.”
First, you will notice in this subject, that
death is not a work of chance, it is the appointment
ofGod. How else shall we accountfora doom so
universal and unalterable. Infancy in Its inno
cence and beauty, falls by the side of matured
strength and hardened vice. Youth with its
hopes, and manhood with its work, arc torn from
their pleasures and the fruit of their toil,
wisdom and folly lie aide by side in the grave.
Wealth and poverty have both their six feet by
three of land as their final position. No im
provement in art, no discoveries of science, no
extent of wisdom, noguard of office.
thia were the work of chance, surely, we had
been provided against it before now, and among
the millions of the human race surely there had
been some whose fortune it had bean to live al
ways. But all the generations past have died,
the present is passing rapidly away and soon ail
will begone. In this result, there can bo no
chance, there is destinv and the appointment of
a God. The certainty.of death proves the gov
ernment of a God to whose laws all are bound
with a rigidness that earth and heaven can
never change. We behold here design that
makes universal intelligence, a will unalterable
as the universe, aud a po >er in execution wnich
proves the omnipotence of a God.
Secondly, This appointment of God is a part
of the divine punishment of sin. It is said,
“as by one man sin entered into the world, and
death by sin, and so death passed upon all men,
for that all have sin.” In this sad event of hu
man life, not only is the government of God ex
hibited, but the character es that government.
Since the entrance of ain into the world was
followed immediately by death, then punish
ment will inevitably follow transgression. Many
eonsiderdcath the natural rcsultof sin, produced
just as eflect is produced by its necessary cause.
This is not historically true The angels sinned
and yet they live. Nor is it logically true, for
then any transgression of God’s law would
produce death, because any transgression of the
law of God is sin But how can a sinful thought,
which is an intellectual operation, produce the
dissolution of our physical constitution. There
is an irreconcilable difference between the cause
and the eflect. The plain declaration of God on
this subject is, “the wages of sin ia death.”
Then must death be considered an appointment
of God, expressive of his opposition to sin.
How terriblo ia the expression of the Divine
Being. The infant’s brow, just now the fair page
filled with hopes and joys to come, by the touch
of death is made to frown with the anger of
a God. The countenance of beauty, the fir
mament where the sun of life looked ferth just
now in joyousnesa and gladness, is suddenly
clouded with the darknesaof death. The fairest,
the loveliest, the most cherished, things of earth
are made the monuments upon which this terri
ble inscription Is written. Who then is safe in
his rebellion against a power, the expressions of
which are so fearful 7 And thoughths Saviour
of sinners has died to redeem us, has bought our
pardon on the tree, yet death ia the doom of all.
This teaches us again, that death introduces
us into another state of boing, where the good
are to be rewarded, and the bad to be punished.
In the work of atonement death is to be destroy
ed, but as yet it is the same. There is no abate
ment of its power. If the gospel be true, then
there is a part of the mediatorial plan yet to be
accomplished, the destruction of death. This has
been begunpn the resurrection of Christ, and ia to
be completed in the final resurrection of all men.
Hence the couplet in the text, “after death the
judgment.” So sure then that all die, so sure
shall all be j udged. Death is the herald of the
judgment It announces a God, who shill
award to all, according to the deeds done in the
body. It is this that makes death terrible. It is
not that we dread this “warm, sensible mo
tion becoming a kneaded clod,” or fear to “lie in
cold obstructions to rot,” but the Judge beyond
fiils us with dread | and well He may. For he
that is condemned in that day, shall be doomed
to eternal suffering. The religious history of
himbolorcua to day is unknown to us, and so
8 n iS Jd 3d °om h* the other world.
Death has concluded his career among us.
And what is it to him that his name will go
. l 2 re da ys Identified with the town of
which he is founder, what to him are all tho
«nd gain, what to him
th K nfl ta V°? of the business world,
what to him are words of human praise or con
demnation 1 He heeds U 9 not to day. Call, and
will he answer 1 Speak of hu works, and will
o"K home and
and will he regard you 7 Ob, my friends “there
is nothing great but God.” What are’ all our
wealth, and honor, and office here, for we muat
die and meet our judge. Then let not the world
deceive, let not sin delude you. “Prepare
to meet your God.”
Capt. Fay, of the barque Vernon, from New
York, reports tbe horning of tbe brig Indus,
on the 9th, from New York, bound to St. Do
mingo. He boarded and took some arlielee
from her. The crew were taken off by a
schooner bound to New York.— lb,
The Late Election.
The second great contest for the Union and
the Constitution has been waged in Georgia,
and her intelligent sons have rallied and won
the victory, under the derided stars and stripes
It is the pleasure of tbe vanquished to growl,
and it seems to be their determination to
slander tbe overwhelming majority, which has
so triumphantly sustained the proud and lofty
position assumed by the Convention as last
year. Theee slanders can hurt nobody. They
are the poor and contemptible ebullitions of a
disappointed faction, and emanate from a
spirit at war with the interests, tbe integrity
and the existence of the Union. Their au
thors have discovered, and they will still further,
hereafter, learn that the “deluded ’ people are
fully able to take care of themselves, and curb
the wild and reckless madness of men intent
on the destruction of every thing dear to the
patriot’s heart.
Georgia has now re-asserted her claim to be
considered the empire State of tbe South, and
no groundless charges of abandoning the rights
or the institutions of the Sonthern section of
the Union can move her intelligent and patrio
tic sons from pursuing such a course as will at
the same time secure themselves and save the
Union. The disunionists, in th : s sad moment
of their utter and hopeless overthrow, would
make the fanatics ofthe North believe that the
majority of the people in this State are with
them in their unhallowed work. Such an un
dertaking may be worthy of those who make
it, but can only be regarded with feelings of
the deepest and most undying contempt by
every Georgian whose vote has aided in swel
ling the present crushing majority. For the
present then, let the enemies of the Union,
North and South, growl and snarl and rant
and fume as much as they please, Their hard
names, and false imputations, are as harmless
as the hissing of serpents whilst they have no
power to bite and destroy the victims of their
wrath.
Our opponent! seem to think that all the
patriotism and love for the Sooth now extant,
dwells in their own immaculate bosoms. This
is indeed modest. It is something else too; it
is supremely ridiculous. But let it be so.
They are beaten and put down on every issue
which they have dared to present, and stand
now the twice condemned enemies of the
South and the whole united country. Geor
gia erected her own platform at her late Con
vention, and on it her people intend to stand.
It was not the work of whigs or democrats, but
the workmanship of the purer men of both
the old parties joining in a common and glori
ous effort to save the government of our im
mortal ancestors. AH honor to the men, who,
breaking tin shackles which fettered them to
old parties, bare thus, in the bout of peril,
stood shoulder to shoulder in the fearful con*
test.
The battle, for the present, has been fought
and the victory is not only complete, but over*
whelmirg. Ihe cause of the country is more
than satisfactorily triumphant. Scarcely a
green spot remains in the Sta‘e, on which the
eye of a disunionist can rest without filliog
with tears. Worse than onion jnice to their
visual organs, is this defeat; mora obnoxious
to the olfactories of the codfish aristocracy than
villainous cheese, in the disastrous burning.
Still it must be so. The sovereign people,
under the influence of some “strange defusin’’
have so willed it, and sore as may be the vic
tims of the castigation, the thrashing will have
to 6tand for a good sound drobbing. For
further particulars we refer to the returns,
which are some in their way, and no mistake
—Columbus Enquirer.
“W* told you so!"—It is stated as an un
questioned factin a New V'ork paper, that the
Honorable Patrick W. Tompkins, late a mem
ber of the Resisance or Disunion Party of
Mississippi, has become, since his removal to
California, an out-and-out Free Seiler and
t earm Anti Slavery man! So true it is, that
“extremes meet,” and the end and aim of all
ultraismja disunion. A Rhelti'e in Mississippi,
a signal illustration of the charge,
iremists of the South and thrsa of the North
were to succeed in their designs, they could
heartily strike hands over a torn and trampled
Constitution and shout Victory!’ together,
over the very ruins of the Republic.— Mem

Periodical Intuit es the Tract Preat.—Be
tides the daily publication of near'y fonr thou
sand books end thirty thousand smaller publi

unprecedented circulation for its various peri
odicals. The illustrated Family Christian A'*
manac has an annual sale of more than 300,CHS
families. The Americanischer Botschafter,
or American Messenger, in Gdrman, has a
circulation exceeding 20,000 copies. And in
the Messenger for this month we seo the pros
pectus and specimen pages of a periodical for
children, handsomely illustrated, to be called
" The Childs Paper.” The tasteful sty'e and
substain&l excellence of the Tract Society’s
issues are well known. Their oheapness
places them within the reach of all. The
good they are doing, in a social, moral, and
religious point of view, caunot be too highly
estimated.— N. Jour. Com.
Alabama Manufactures.— We were pre
sent yesterday, with a large number of others,
at the exhibition of the beautiful prize Engine,
constructed at the Montgomery Manufuctoiing
Company’s Works, ana designed for ihe com
ing Fair at Macon, Ga. This is the seventy
eeventh Steam Engine manufactured at this
extensive and enterprising establishment with
in the iast two years, in addition to a vast
amount of heavy forging and casting, in every
variety ©f iron work—the power of its ma
chinery and fixtures, and skill of its artificers,
enabling it to accomplish all descriptions of
iron and braes casting, in a superior style,
from the heaviest steamboat shafts, millwheels,
and engines of • 100 horse power, to tbe most
delica e ornamental work known to the art.
The Engine referred to, intended for the Fair,
is about forty-horse power, and is constructed
(the iron pan) wholly of Alabama i*on. Tha
heavy castings are from most exquisitely
wrought patterns, and the general finish, polish
and accuracy of tbe machiue unsurpassed by
any work of the kind we have seen. The
ornamental work is in good taste, and most
elaborately finished. It is in all respects a
most beautiful and admirable specimen of the
art, iind deserves, and we trust will receive,
the premium. We have no idea that it can be
excelled in any quarter.
The Montgomery Manufacturing Company
is organized with a capital of s2so,ooo—em

bas an extended reputation for the variety and
excellence of its work. The enterpriziug
Company are entitled to the thanks of ihe
State for tho example they have set in Invest

sured it success. As is expressed in a motto
engraved on the Engine: “Those are the
traest friends of the South who most encour
age her industrial interest.” —Montgomery

The Montgomery Advertiser nctioes the
arrival of a load of sixteen bales of cotton
drawn by four small mules. The bales weigh

and Mr. G. gave it as his opinion that the
same team eould have brought twenty with
ease.
A friend writing us from Mobile says: “We
have had some little Yellow Fever, and iwo or

on hand, but nothing to alarm our people,

favored with a good rain,—the first we have
had for over a month, and it will doubtless
have a bappy effect on the health of the city.

goestst
After having solemnly promised the Turkish
commissaries to go direct to America, Kossnth
wanted to take a Hungarian flag with him iato

the Turks. When all the refugees were safely
on board, Kossuth made a speech, in which
Lord Palmerston and the Americana were not

Propeller Monticello Wrecked.
It becomea oar painfal duty to record the
moat perilous ahipwieck that ha* ever occured
on Like Superior, and having beenapasaen
on board the Montioeiio at the time, we are
enabled to give all the partioulara in relation
to the lose of the vessel, and the hardshipa of
the passengers and crew.
We went on board at the Ontonagon on
the afternoon of the 35 h nit. on her return
from Fond du Lac. She left Mr. Cash's dock
in the river at half past five o’clock, bound for
Sant. She lay on the bar a few minutes on
her way eat, bnt the sea at that time was light,
and we cannot think it possible that Bhe sprung
aleak from the effects of the slight pounding en
the light sand.
We had heen ont half an hour when the
firemen discovered the water rising around
the floors of the engine. The main pump was
put into operation, and on examination the
captain and engineer seemed confident that the
pump would keep her clear till we could run
down to Eagle Harber, a distance of sixty
miles—but it was soon discovered that the
water was fast gaining on the pump, and pre
parations were made immediately for raising
water by means of barrels and buckets.
The wind was blowing at first from the west
ward, bnt soon changed to the nrrthwest —it
was fresh but fair, and aided by sails and all
4k*S 2* wea penJanl *o nassjr, tho
Monticello came on at a rapid rate, still keeping
on her course, ia hopea to make the harbor.
The pasaangers and crew worked steadily at
the pumps, but the water continued gradually
to gain on them.
We bad now been out about three hours,
the wind and waves constan ly increasing,
when it was found there was little hope of
reaching Eagle Harbor; the water had risen
nearly to tho fires and was fast glining,
notwithstanding all the exertion of those on
board.
After remaining on her coarse a few min
utes longer the boat was headed toward the
land, and new efforts were put forth to en
courage all on board to assist at the pumps and
barrels. Dy this time there were three feet of
water or more in the hold, and she moved aud
rolled heavily through the seas.
It was not long before the fires were report
ed out—the engines work lazily for • shot
time, the clicking of the valves became faint
and lass frequen’, am finally, like the dying
s rnggle of a strong man, it ceased altogether.
The boat being soon careened on one side
by she sails, one of the fire grates was partally
out of water, and a fire was kindled again by
means of dry wood, oil and the most combusti
ble matter the boat afforded. This not only
assisted our progress toward the land, bnt it
stimulated the passengers to new exer ions.
The fires were in this wav kindled and ex
tinguished several times- For two hours the
water-logged ves els drived iu before sound
ings could be had. In this region it was well
known that the coast wav rocky and danger
ous, and the night was too dark to enable the
pilot to distinguish one place from another.
A heavy sea rolled in upon the shore, and it
seemed like maduess *o attempt to make a lan*
ding, under such circumstances. Accordingly
Capt. Wilson decided to come to anchor and
endeavor to keep the vessel afloat till daylight;
and as soon as we came into six fathoms water
the anchors were let go, and she swung round
heavily.
The pumping and baling were continued ;
two or three hours more would bring the light
of another day, and it was understood that an
attempt would be mads to land as soon as it
was daylight.
Some time before daylight the wind changed
to the North and commenced blowing hard,
directly upon the shore, and the sea increased
rapidly, oftentimes washing into the hatchways
where the men were at work baling, and i be
came evident to ah that the the vessel eould be
kept afloat only fora short time longer.
At fivo o’clock it waa light enough to see that
it waa a bold rocky shore, against which the
waves dashed high and furiously, but it waste#
late to choose a place for landing, and the eapt.
ordered the anchors raised. Her bow swung
sround to the east, and in fiftetn minutes she
s rurk heavily on the solid rock, about three
hundred yards from shore.
The largest of the two yawls, on the lee
side, was soon lowered, and with a line long
enough to reaoh the land, the first and second
mates, Messrs. Lucas and Barney, W. T.
.1? e,^ roo * t ® Bd ®. n ® of the crew started for
the shore. The line was made fast to a tree,
and they commenced the far more diffiouit and
dangerous task of returning.
By untiring exertions the passengers and

From Bocaos Atres.— We have advices
from Buenos Ayres to the 18th of August.
The principal feature of interest is the treaty
negotiated between France and the Argentine
Republic, only now published, although it
was signed by the plenipotentiaries of each
country in August, 1850. It oontains the
following provisions:
Ist. That the Argentine Republic will
adhere to an immediate suspension of hostili
ties between the Oriental forces and Montevi
deo, and those of the country districts. 2d.
That the agent of the French Government
will reclaim from Montevideo the immediate
diearmament of the foreign legion, either in
Montevideo or any other part of the Oriental
Republic. 3d. That the army of the Argen
tine Confederation shall retire upon the Uru
guay. 4tb. That France shalf raise the block
ade of the Oriental ports, evacuate the Island
of Martin Garcia, make restitution of vessels
which may have been taken, and salute the
gag of the Confederation with twenty-one
guns. stb. That the two contracting parties
shall restore vessels taken during the blockade
to their respective owners. 6th. That the
French Republic reoognises the navigation of
the river Parana as an interior navigation of
the Argentine Confederation, and subject only
to its laws and regulations, the same as that of
the Uragnay, in common with the Oriental
States. 7th, Bth, and 9tb articles contain no
provisions of interest. Ar:ic'e 11th settles
the matter of various titles, France recognising
Oribo as a brigadier only, and not as President
of Uruguay. ]2th and 13:h sections refer to
the exchange of ratifications.
The Buenos Ayres Packet saya that a similar
treaty haa been negotiated with Oribo.

in May, 1849, would cease to be of effect so

British steamer. Ninety-four slaves were

There are no clear intelligible accounts of
belligerent movements. It is asserted gene
rally in the advices that Brazil is making active
preparations to invade the Argentine territory
and take part with Urquiza, but there are
contradictory rumors respecting the positions
of all parties to what seems to be a generally
unsettled state of affairs. Urquiza was at
Cerro Pelado on the 4th of August, according
to wbat seem to be tbe most recent accounts.
