AUGUSTA, a-A..:
Sunday Morning. November 28, 1875.
The Model Church.
i
Well, wife, I found the model church. 1
worshiped there to-day!
It made me think of good oid times, before
my hair was gray;
Ihe meetin’ house was fixed up more than
they were years ago,
But then I felt when I went in, it wasn’t
built for show.
The sexton didn’t seat me away back by
: the door;
He- knew that I was old and deaf, as well
as old and poor;
He must ha%e been a Christian, because he
led me through
The long aisles of that crowded church, to
find a place and pew.
I wish you’d heard the singin’; it had the
old-time ring;
The preacher said, with a trumpet voice,
“let all the people sing 1 ”
The tune was Coronation, and the music
upward rolled,
Till I thought I heard the angels striking
all their harps of gold.
My dea.'ness seemed to melt away; my
spirit caught the fire:
I joined my feeble, trembling voice with
that melodious choir.
And sang as in my youthful days, “let an
geis prostrate fall;
Bring forth the royal diadem and crown
Him Lord of all.”
I tell you, wife, it did me good to sing that
hymn once more;
I felt like some wrecked mariner, who gets
a glimpse of shore;
l almost wanted to lay down this weather
beaten form.
And anchor in the blessed port, forever
from the storm.
The preachin’? Well, I can’t just tell all
that the preacher said;
I know it wasn’t written; I know it wasn’t
read;
He hadn’t time to read it, for the lighten’
of his eye.
Went flashin’ long from pew to pew, nor
passed a sinner by.
The sermon wasn’t flowery;’twas simply
gospel truth;
It fitted poor old men like me; it fitted
hope’ul youth;
’lwas full of consolation, for weary hearts
that bleed;
’Twas full of invitations to Christ, and not
to creed.
The preacher made sin hideous in Gentiles
and in -Jews;
He shot the golden sentences down in the
finest pews;
And—though I can’t see very well—l saw
the falling tear
T hat told me hell was someways off, and
heaven very near.
How swift the golden moments fled, within
that holy place;
How brightly beamed the light of Heaven
from ev’ry happy face;
Again I longed for that sweet time, when
frienu shall meet with friend,
“When congregations ne’er break up, and
Sabbath has no end.”
I hope to meet that minister—that congre
gation too—
In the dear home beyond the stars that
shine from heaven’s blue;
I doubt not I’ll remember, beyond life even- j
ing gray,
The happy hour of worship in that model
church to-day.
Dear wife, the fight will soon be fought, the
victory be w'on;
The shiniu’ goal is just ahead; the race is
nearly run;
O’er the river we are nearing they are
thronging to the shore,
To shout our safe arrival where the weary
weep no more.
GLEANINGS.
Vice, like disease, floats in the at
mosphere.—[Hazlitt.
Wine has drowned more than the
sea —Publius Syrus.
“Gobble while you may,” says the
Detroit Free Press. Who’s been gob
bling? It was those St. Louis fellows.
Revivals among the colored people
in the South have suspended during
the ’possum season.
A Brooklyn young man of observa
tion mentioned that girls who wear
striped stockings prefer to kick the
gate open.
There is said to be in Paris, at the
present time, an Alsatian peasant
woman who carries her hair on her
arm like a brain, as it is seven feet and
a half in length. She is fifty-two years
of age, but her hair still grows.
The Washington papers are very
much disgusted with the leader of the
Marine Band, who, in addition to many
ether failings, is charged with taking
his band into saloons and playing for
beer.
It touches a tender spot away down
in the heart to read in the Alexandria
Gazette: “There are dozens of families
in this town who do not taste oysters
from one year’s end to another.”
“His bumb of combativeness is won -
derfully developed,” said a phrenologist
of a rough-looking subject. It was
afterwards learned that that bump
was developed by a flat-iron, which his
wife threw at him as he was crawling
under the table to escape the broom
stick.
Brother Shearman shows signs of an
inclination to weep again, and as the
winter is just setting in, and the sea
son bids fair to be inclement, we would
euggeet that some citizen with the good
of the public at heart be assigned to
assassinate Mr. Shearman. — Chicago
Times.
When the ladies — T>ieu les garde—
leant that the pull back is the style of
dress in which Homer enfolded Helen;
in which Aspasia and Cleopatra moved
like two models of divine beauty, while
Petrach's Laura wore garments that
fitted her like a glove, they will keep
to the style ancl improving the style in
spite of the slings and arrows of an
outrageous press.
The monkeys discovered by Stanley
on the shores of Lake Nyanza appear
to be in a very advanced stage of
civilization. One of the most exciting
incidents at the recent meeting of the
Geographical Society in London, was
the discussion as to the probable
truthfulness of his statement that the
female monkeys wear bustles made of
jpalui leaves and cocoa-nut husks.
A Harvard professor went down to
one of the beaches of the New England
coast to bathe one stormy day, but the
men in charge refused to let him go in
on account of the dangerous swell. On
his way back he expressed his disap
pointment and indignation to the dri
ver of the omnibus. “Well, FU tell you
how It is,” said the driver, “we don’t
like to have strangers come down here
and get drowned. It hurts the beach."
One of Mark Twain’s funny stories
is that of a Scripture panorama, the
proprietor of which engaged a pianist
to play appropriate music. The musi
cian, when the picture of the “Prodi
gal Son” was passing, struck up “When
Johnny Comes Marching Home!
which excited the indignation of the
moral lecturer. Recently, in a neigh
boring town, the drama of “Joseph
and His Brethren” was played; and the
tune to which Jacob and his family
journeyed into Egypt was “ Marching
Through Georgia.”— Boston Traveler.
Ancient curiosities of all kinds are
comb?? to light as the Centennial ap
proached- A citizen of San Francisco
has an old .copper piece the size of the
old copper cent, on one side of which
is a very determin e d*looking jaekas9,
and around the margin ar © the words :
“ The Constitution as I understand it;”
over it is “ Roman firmness/’ and un
der the jack’s feet is the word “ Veto.”
On the opposite side is the figure of
Gen. Andrew Jackson, behind a safe,
with sword in one hand and a bag of
gold in the other; around the figure
are the words : “ I take the responsi
bility.”

Db Txjtt :—ln gratitude for the benefit
received by the use of your Expectorant, I
do cheerfully add my testimony to its won

For several years I suffered dreadfully with
a cough, attended wi'h great difficulty of

relief. I took six bottles, and ana now per
fectly restored. It is about lave months

OYSTER SHELL LIME.
The Cheapest and Best Fertilizer in
Use in Georgia,
NOTHING in the way of a Fertilizer and
Renovator of old soils hfis been found
equal to PURE OYSTER SHELL LIME.
It is not only for one year, but its good
effects are seen and continues; for eight to
ten years. Lime is greatly beneficial to all
Gi am Crops, applied as a top pressing, and
also to Potatoes and all ro*t crops, and
should be applied in quantifies not less
than 5 to 30 bushels per acre. <For Compost
Heaps it is invaluable, and t*> the planters
of Georgia this plan of using purne is speci
ally recommended to bring u* our State to
the front rank in Agricultural-matters. The
cheapness of our OYSTER KtIELL LIME
will recommend it to every farmer who lias
used fertilizers largely for die past few
years. Its value is greatly enhanced by its
long > ears of service, actingias it does for
years after its application has been forgot
ten. In soils abounding jn vegetable sub
stances the mauurial quality in Lime is
more fully recognized. Nitrdgen abounds
in all soils of common fertility, but little of
it is available—Lime unlock! this store
house of Nitrogen and renders it readily
available for plant food. A splendid and
econo i ical compostfertilizerjnay be made
by thoroughly mixing one bushel of salt
and three of Lime, and let f the mixture
stand six to eight weeks bofsrp using. This
is specially adapted to usingf in drills for
Turnips. The cheapness ftpjl facility of
procuring this wonderful renovator of the
soil ought to make it one of the first objects
of the farmer (who desires to improve his
land) to obtain it. Nothing in the way of a
fertiliser or renovator has been foqnd equal
to it, as proved by the inomised yield of
crops and permanent improvement of the
soil at a cost less, by far, then any other
manure. We are prepared to furnish PURE
OYSTER SHELL LIME in ifny quantity
at $lO per ton of 2,000 pounds, i’ree of cart
age, on pars in Port Royal, S. and.
We also have a Compound sir Prevent
ing Rot in Grapes for sale at SSO per ton.

HPHE cotton is spread on this machine faom the bale, and is ins' 1 5 into a very ever
X lap, at the rate of 300 to 40.1 pounds per hour. The laps are then finished on a
TWO-BEATER LAPPER,
WITH
KITSON’S PATENT EVENER
AttaheU. and owing to reecent Improvements in this Evener, the laps when ready for
the card, only varies one quarter of an ounce to the yard. Ihe cost of picking by this
system is only about one mill per pound on the cloth produced, and the picker house is
safer from fire than the card room. ~ .
aarThere is abo a great saving of room and power over the old system.
These Machines may be seen at the mills of the Augusta Factory, Langley Manufac

The Kitson Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.:
Gentlemen, f have been running your system of Compound Opener Lappers and
Finisher Lappers, witn Eveners, for more than two vears naet at the Cotton Mill of tne
Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found it to work the most satisfactory of
any opening and picking arrangement I have ever seen. e have not weighed a pound
of cotton upon the picker apron since starting, vet we have had a remarkable regularity
of numbers. The staple is not injured by over beating, and it leaves the picker without
being curled or knitted; the seeding and cleaning is very complete. Over forty per
cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the greatest con
siderations with this arrangement is its secur ty against fire. . .
