HEPHZIBAH ASSOCIATION.
Second Day’s Proceedings.
The Association at 9a. m.,
yesterday, Moderator Rev, W. L. Kil
patrick, presiding, W. J. Rogers opened
the proceedings with prayer.
The following resolutions were re
ported and adopted, on the
death of n. b. moore*: ,
Resolved, That Hephzibah Associa
tion in conveution assembled do regret
to learn of the death of brother N. B.
Moore. >
Resolved, That in expressing this
testimonial of esteem and love tor the
memory of the departed, that we do
mingle our sorrow aud suffering with
that of the family, assuring them ana
citizens in the loss of one who wore so
well the Christian character that we
partake of their sorrow and grief.
Resolved, Asa further token of es
teem that this Association do suspend
business at 1 o’clock and meet at 4p.
ui., that the friends and members of
this body may pay the last tribute to
the noble dead.
Resolved, That a copy of the resolutions
be handed the Constitutionalist. Chroni
cle and Sentinel ad Christian Index, and
they be requested to publish the same.
Rev. W. EL Davis then reported from
the Committee Circulars aud Letters,
stating, iu substance, that there was
great destitution within the limits of
the Association; that it was a subject
of mortification and surprise the
churches do not meet outside of the
city of Augusta oftenor than once a
month. The question naturally arises,
who is to blame? The churches are
not censurable, because they are not
able to pay; neither are the pastors. A
suggestion has been made to have for
pastors those who can teach school.
The Association has been singularly
blessed by God in its labor, but the
destitute neighborhoods should be
helped. The report recommended a
committee of five to consider the sub
ject matter.
The Moderator appointed the fol
lowing as the committee recommended
in the report: M. P. Cain, J. J. Davis,
R. Jordan, J. A. Carswell, H. L. Buttle.
COMMITTEE REPORTS.
The following reports were made :
On deceased ministers ; on deaths of
Revs. Thomas Granberry and L. F.
McMoxrell ; Education ; Home Mis
sions.
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX.
Dr. D. E. Butler made a very ener
getic appeal for the Christian Index. It
was the duty of all Georgina Baptists
to subscribe and support such a worthy
enterprise. The trouble was too much
attention was given to supporting pa
pers published in far off localities in
stead of supporting home productions.
The Index was a fine paper, lie said,
and ought to be liberally sustained.
MERCER UNIVERSITY.
A lengthy and most interesting ad
dress was made by Rev. A. J. Battle,
D. D., Pt-esident of Mercer University,
presenting the claims of that institu
tion. It was organized forty years ago
with prayer, and the patronage and
prayers of the Baptists should be
showered on this college. Since the
removal of the institution to Macon, it
seemed as though it took anew lease
of life and prosperity, The trustees
have put up buildings that will last for
centuries, and intend to keep pace
with any institution of the kind in the
South.
FOREIGN MISSIONS.
Rev. W, H. Davis and Rev. M. B.
Wharton made a strong appeal in be
half of the foreign missionary work of
the Church; it was a cause that Bap
tists love, and ought to be liberally
helped.
SUNDAY SCHOOLS.
Rev. Dr. Wharton then addressed
the assembly on behalf of the State
Sunday School work, and subscriptions
for winch cause be sent to John H.
James, of Atlanta.
FEMALE COLLEGE.
The Committee on Queries, from the
Bottsford Chureli, reported favorably
on the erection on the proposed female
college.
DENOMINATIONAL LINES.
In a discussion on the report of the
Committee on Sabbath Schools, recom
mending Union Sunday, pending the
motion to adopt the x*eport of the com
mittee on Sunday School, Dr. E. R.
Carswell moved to strike out that part
of the report in which we say ‘'wo do
not ignore” the good resulting from
the labors of the “Union Sunday School
Convention.” Dr. Carswell sail, as a
Baptist association, we were here to
attend to the interest of that Associa
tion, and not to attend to the business
of other institutions, even to the ex
tent of a negative endorsement. He
believed so far as the general subject
was concerned in Baptists sending their
children to Baptist Sunday schools,
and impressing their hearts, conscien
ces and intellects with the grand
truths of Christianity, as held by Bap
tists. Allother denominations, whether
avowing this principle or not, usually
acted upon, and, as Baptists, we should
in this respect, emulate their example.
TEMPERANCE.
The Cormnitt&o on Temperance re
ported that the Baptist Church had
taken high ground on this most impor
tant subject, aud recommended in
creased effort to carry on the work.
After the transaction of some other
routine business, at 1 p. m., the Asso
ciation adjourned.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
At 4p. m. the Association met, and
was opened with prayer by Rev. W. T.
Holmes.
On motion, Messrs. A. J. Holmes, J.
F. Casson, F. H. Powell, H, Williams
and L F. Adkins were appointed a com
mittee to choose delegates to the Bap
tist Convention of Georgia, and re
ported the following names: W. H.
Davis, W. L. Kilpatrick, E. R. Cars
well, G. W. Evans, A. M. Rodgers, J. O.
C. Black, M. B. Wharton,W. J. Rodgers,
J. T. Robert, W. T. Holmes.
SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION.
Rev. J. H. Kilpatrick, by request,
made au explanation relative to repre
sentation in the Southern Baptist Con
vention, and contrasted the system
with that of the Georgia State Conven
tion. If the Hephzibah Association
wanted representation in the Southern
Baptist Convention, funds must, be sent
direct through the Treasurer of the
Association instead of through the
State Conveution.
Rev. J. T. Robert thought it best to
have the subject arranged through a
committee of investigation instead of
the immediate appointment of dele
gates. Dr. E. R. Carswell wanted no
postponement of the matter, because it
would be more prudent to have dele
gates appointed direct from the Asso
ciation, to head off any movement lookJ
ing to a union of the Southern Baptist
Convention with the Northern Baptist
Convention.
The hour of adjournment having ar
rived at 5 p. m., the Association ad
journed to 9 a. m. Monday.
Remember the little paint shop
around, the corner, opposite the post
office, and get a sign. It
Merchants and others in need of
Bunk Books aud Stationery should
buy them at the Live Book Store. X
am selling at Bottom Prices. Give me
a trial before buying elsewhere.

An Interesting Session.
The present session of the Hephzi
bah Association is a most interesting
one, aud largely attended by our Bap
tists friends. Every branch of the
ohurch organization is reported upon
as being in a healthy condition, al
though some portions of the church
within the limits of the Association
suffer from “ hard times.” The
routine proceedings of the second day
of the session can be found in another
column. The very handsome appear
ance of the Fix*st Baptist Church, in
which this Association holds its ses
sions, was the universal theme of
praise, more especially the frescoing,
which is of an elaborate character and
not surpassed by any other church iu
the State. A fine spirit prevailed in
the Association, judging from the
promptness with which over SSOO was
raised for Home Missions.
MEETING OF CITIZENS.
Nomination of Major Allen for Mayor
-Speeches by W. Fred. Eve. H. G.
Wright, James Barrett, M P. Fos
ter, Dr. M. J. Jones, M. P. Carroll.
Salem Dutclier, S. Warren Mays and
Others—Resolutions Adopted, Etc.
In accordance with the published
call, a number of citizens assembled
last evening in the Superior Court
room. The largest portion of those
assembled kept in rear portion of the
room. About three hundred persons
were present.
At 7:30 o’clock, M. J. Jones proposed
M. A. Stovall for chairman, and Okas.
Harper for Secretary*. The “ayes
were rather feeble. The chairman
proceeded to the platform and took
the chair, and stated that the object
of the meeting was well known as set
forth in the call, which he read.
W. Fred. Eve, Esq., moved that a
committee of five be appointed to pre
pare business for the meeting. The
motion being put. three or four voices
answered “aye!” The Chairman
named the following gentlemen:* John
Phinizy, Salem Duteher, Martin V.
Calvin, Louis A. Dugas, Jr., and Josiali
Mosher.
Mr. Phinizy declined, but the Chair
man urged him to stick. Mr.
Phinizy still urged his desire to be ex
cused/but eventually reluctantly con
sented to act. There was some ap
plause at this point, in which Eugene
Yerdery was quite prominent. The
committee retired, and there were loud
calls for “Wright!” “Wright!” “Wright!”
H. G. Wright then came forward, and
in address of a rew minutes, said, in
substance, that Mayor Estes had been
to the city what Foster Blodgett was
when iu office. Those who are opposed
to Mr. Estes should band togethei*.
This movement will eventually' cause
Mr. Estes’ overthrow.
Cries for “Barrett” were then made.
James Barrett said, although he was
not a citizen of Augusta, he would say
that it was time to overthrow this
man and hurl him from public office.
“He has wilfully deceived you about the
canal. If you do not hurl him from
office ho will eventually demand the
houses of the citizens.” Cries were thou
made for “Foster.”
M. P. Foster said, he shared the sen
timents of Mr. Wright. There were
older men than they who wore interested
iu this movement, and he would rather
hear from them. The call was general,
and he should not hesitate to express
himself. There was gross mismanage
ment somewhere, and it ought to be
placed on the shoulders it belonged.
Had no personal feeling in the matter,
and there should be no bitterness in it.
It becomes the citizens to speak their
sentiments freely aud stop at nothing.
Every man should be hurled from office
who gave out the original contract.
Officials had no right to give out a con
tract which lias proved an imposition
on the people. (Cries of Harris.)
General Harris said he was a citizen
of Richmond county’, but not of the
city of Augusta, aud asked to be ex
cused. (Cries for Myers.)
Henry Myers said he was not a pub
lic speaker, and therefore asked to be
excused from making au address. He
favored the movement.
Dr. M. J. Jones said when he
spoke it stirred up a bitter feeling.
He hoped the meeting would prove a
success Had been curbed; in fact was
“bridled” (“Cut loose the bridle,” cried a
voice.) The Mayor and his police had
beat me. Tuey lied when they’ said
they beat me by two votes. They said
“Jones kno.v’dsomething; I don’t know
anything.” In less than forty days he
would know something. The man who
bought votes against him would be
beat himself.
M. P. Carroll, Esq., said men older
than himself should come forward aud
ventilate matters. Was ignorant of
the present state of the affairs of the
city. Was opposed to the present in
cumbent for two reasons. ' Knew
nothing derogatory to the character of
Mayor Estes. To keep Mr. Estes fur
ther in public office was against the
character of American institutions.
Was a Democrat, and opposed to Mr.
Estes having the office any longer. Mr.
Estes has shown himself incapable of
performing the duties of Mayor
of such a city as Augusta.
He had a city counsellor to draw
up papers of a kind to hold the
contractor, and has shown mismanage
ment. Did not charge any dishonesty
or peculation in the discharge of his
duties. There should be some scheme
on foot to reduce the taxation ; the
tax rate was SIOO a head, and
$2,000,000 in the aggregate. It was
perfectly fearful when it was looked at.
Put in nomination a good citizen for
Mayor who will be heartily supported.
There should be no crimination or re
crimination in the discussion of this
matter. Do not charge a man with
dishonesty unless you can support such
a charge by figures and facts. Cast no
imputations upon any man unless you
can prove it, and then thrust it down
his throat until he is choked.
Salem Duteher from tho committee,
said lie was instructed to make the
following report:
Under the present administration of
the city government of Augusta, tax
ation has been greatly increased aud
onerous burdens imposed upon citi
zens of all classes without any corres
ponding benefits, being received, and in
particular, the management of the
canal enlargement lias been character
ized by the grossest extravagance and
iucompetency. Iu view of these, facts
it is the duty of the citizens of Augusta
to protest against any further increase
ot the bonded debt of the city. Against
the increase of taxation made by the
present administration, and against the
extravagance which has characterized
the ad ministration of Mayor Estes, and
to favor the election of some man to the
mayoralty pledged to economy, re
trenchment, investigation and reform.
We call therefore upon ail the citi
zens of Augusta, the property owners
who are burdened with taxes, and all
the laboring men who have been de
prived of employment, to aid in the
overthrow of an administration which
has burthened capital and crushed la
bor, and as expressive of the sense of
this meeting, recommend the adop
tion of tho following resolutions:
Resolved, That tho people of Augusta
are entitled to a full, detailed and com
plete statement of the financial condition
of this city; and that experience has
shown that the present Mayor either can
not or will not furnish such information.
Resolved, That, judging the tree by its
fruit, i lie administration of tho present
Mayor of Augusta is an emphatic failure,
and that the nest interests of the city de
mand that he shall not be permitted to
continue that management for the future
whicli has characterized his official course
in the past.
Resolved, That tho chairman appoint a
committee of two from each ward to pre
pare an address to the citizens of Augusta.
Resolved, That this meeting proceed to
the nomination of some citizen for the
Mayoralty, ou the broad platform of econ
omy, retrenchment, investigation and le
form.
Mr. Foster said the idea occurred to
him that it would be well to have
presented to the citizens some argu
ments to convince them of the
objects of the meeting. He mov
ed to include iu the address the name
of every member of Council who aided
Mr. Estes. [Slight applause.J
Salem Duteher said the meeting was
not a Ward meeting,iiut in the interest
of tho entire city. Did not therefore
favor the idea of bringing Ward poli
tics into the question.
Mr. Foster said Mr. Duteher mistook
his intention. He did not want to make
Ward nominations, but simply include
with Mr. Estes all his coadjutors. He
offered to amend the address.
S. Warren Mays defended a portion
of the Council, especially the action of
Dr. Ford.
Some confusion ensued at this point,
and several gentlemen surrounded Mr.
Foster, making suggestions.
Mr. Foster still urged his amendment
to include those who favored Mr. Estes
action. The Chairman put the matter
to a vote, and the “ noes ” being much
the loudest, a voice cried out “ divis
ion,” and considerable laughter ensued.
The Chair decided the amendment was
lost.
Mr. Foster said it was apparent there
was strenuous opposition, and he
would therefore withdraw his amend
ment.
The Chairman then put the question
on tho report, and the “ ayes ” appear
ed quite strong, with a few “ noes.”
The Chairman said, a nomination for
Mayor was now in order. “Major Al
len,” t ied many voices.)
M. V. Calvin then moved that Major
J. V. H. Allen be placed in nomination
for Mayor.
The motion was carried amid much
applause. Loud calls were made for
Major Allen.
S. F. Webb moved that a committee
be appointed t,o wait on Major Allen
and introduce him to the meeting.
The chairman announced as the
committee, M. V. Calvin, H. G. Wright,
L. A. Dugas, Jr., S. F. Webb anti M. P.
Foster. The committee then retired.
Loud calls were made for Duteher,
Duncan, Yerdery, but no one re
sponded.
The chairman announced the follow
ing committees under the resolutions :
First Ward, Win. H. Howard, W. J.
Rutherford; Second Ward, Henry My
ers, Salem Duteher; Third Ward, Jas.
Gargan, Zack McCord; Fourth Ward,
George W. Conway, Barney Doris.
The crowd continued to call for Eve,
Duncan, Mays and Yerdery, dwelling
particularly strong on the name of the
latter.
After a lull, the crowd commenced
to cry for Gen. Stovall, who arose and
said he had a bad sore throat and a
cold, and asked to be excused as he
was not a public speaker. “Well, you
are a public fighter,” cried a voice iu
tho rear part of the hall. The crowd
amused themselves by crying for a
number of persons, but no one re
sponded.
About 9 o’clock, the committeo re
turned and reported they could not
find Major Alien, but a person author
ized to speak for Major Allen said ho
would accept the nomination tendered.
The meeting then adjourned.
Every business man should have a

Tlie New Christian Cliurclx.
The beautiful new edifice of the
Christian Church, ou the comer of
Greene aud Mclntosh streets, will, it is
thought, bo finished in throo weeks. It
is by far the most beautiful church
edifice in this city ; the cross ou its
lofty steeple is one of the prominent
objects to be seen as a person ap
proaches the city iu any direction. The
building is of brick with stone trim
mings. The auditorium is 100x40
feet, accommodating 700 persons iu the
main floor aud 150 in the gallery.
The main entrance on Greene street, is
flanked by two side entrances; there is
an entrance on Mclntosh street and
ouo from tho lecture room.
The windows are in stained glass of
Cathedral stylo with a large one ar
ranged in the shape of a St. Catherine’s
wheel in the front portion of the build
ing.
iu the rear of the pulpit is a very
large and beautiful stained glass win
dow with a life-sized picture of the
Savior and John the Baptist standing
in the river Jordan in the act of bap
tism.
The gas fixtures are very elegant.
The organ loft is on the east side of
the auditorium, opposite the Mclntosh
street, entrance, and some fears have
been expressed that tho construction of
the loft is faulty; however, the matter
will be soon settled, when Mr. Gardner,
of New York, erects the organ.
The lecture rooms can seat 250 per
sons, iu walnut settees, of an im
proved pattern, with reversible
backs, for the convenience of the
Sunday School ceremonies. Both
lecture room and auditorium will be
heated by furnaces of improved kind.
The main tower, in which is to be liuug
a bell weighing 3,000 pounds, is on tho
right front corner of the building ; it
is 189 feet high exclusive of tho rod,
surmounted by a gilt cross fourteen
feet high. On the opposite front cor
ner is the ventilating tower —a modern
invention by which the warmth of
the rooms is at all times under
the absolute control of the sexton —
is 100 feet high. On the same lot and
immediatly east of the lecture room,
with a frontage on Greene street is
the parsonage containing seven rooms
with all the modern improvements.
The house is of pressed brick
similar to tho church with gran
ite and iron coping, including
buttresses. The whole will be sur
rounded by au elegant and massive
iron railing on a stone foundation. The
entire cost is about SIOG,OOO. D. B.

The Maintenance of Health. —The
maintenance of health is often more j
difficult than its recovery. Vitiated j
conditions of the atmosphere, un- '
healthy occupations, extremes of heal;
or cold, and constant exposure to j
rough weather, are all so many provoi j
cations of disease. There is but one J
sure way of effectually guarding the j
system when thus subjected to influ- j
ences, prejudicial to health, and that. I
is to establish, by judicious tonic and \
alterative medication, vigor of the body j
and regularity of its functions. The j
properties of an invigomnt aud cor- I
rective are happily combined in Hos j
tetter’s Stomach Bitters, which, at the !
same time that it infuses unwonted !
vitality into the system, overcomes all ,
tendency of the stomach, liver, bowels ;
and urinary organs to deviate from
regularity in the discharge of functions !
upon which the welfare of the entire j
physical organization is dependent.
Health cannot bo more effectually j
maintained than by using the Bitters, ■!

Discovered.— Dr. Price has, after a |
long series of experiments, discovered
anew process of extracting tho subtle
flavor from every delicious fruit and
aromatic. In his Flavoring Extracts
the characteristic taste and freshness *
of the real fruit is preserved, and by
hß?process so highly concentrated that
but a small quantity is required to im;
part their peculiar flavor to any article
iu which they may be used. Ladies
that wish something superior in the j
way of flavoring extracts or baking
