Fuilii and Reason.
'Written for the Sunday Telegraph.]
To the Editors : I am no theologian, but a
reader of my Bible and an observer of what
transpires amongst men in the church and in
the world. Conscious of my own faults and
weakness, I venture to disapprove oertain
things among ministers of the gospel and leam-
smee e( j commentators, which look to me very
much like faults. In this article I advert to
but one.
They concede too much to reason in the solu
tion of the mysteries of Revelation. I am not
to be understood as denying to human reason
the function of considering, weighing and pro
nouncing judgment upon many of the funda
mental truths of the gospel. It is addressed by
Supreme intelligence to the mind and conscience
of humanity. It were an insult to the wisdom
of the Almighty to suppose that he expects man
to receive the preeepts—the sublime ethics, and
yet sublimer promises and recovering provisions
of that gospel, without investigation, thought or
’ ension; as the marble receives the
mind. And how enrapturing the thought that
by redemption Christ is our elder brother and
God our father. Layman.
But there are mysteries iu the
, . light of eternity is shed upon them. Such is

elect are safe. To this the attributes of the
Godfietul are pledged. In the Almighty there
can be no possibihty of change; if there was,
lie would be imperfect, and imperfection is not
predicable of the All-sufficient Jehovah of the
Bible. The process of salvation must go on
with the certainty of unchangeableness and the
energy of omnipotence. What, then, becomes
of the agency of the creature? Why, reason
says that is ignored, and nothing that he can do,
and nothing 3iat he omits to do, can affect the
final result—he is saved by the eternal purpose
and immutable Providences of God. Thus I
have stated the doctrine of election as it stands
on the inspired page. Now hear the other side,
The invitations and appeals of the Gospel are
addressed to man as a. free agent. He must re

pent ye shall all likewise perish.” This is not

That New Court House- •
Editors Telegraph: Plans seem to come in
slowly—only two up to three days since. "Well,
more may come by Monday.
Now, Messrs. Editors, you who have the ear
and favor of the worthy gentlemen of the
Board, and have a prescriptive right to know
everything, must excuse the ignorance of the
outsiders, and perhaps you will not be displeased
if one of the number ventures to tell you what
we sometimes think and 6ay about the matter.
Please whisper to those gentlemen that this is
all wholly innocent of harm.
It looks odd to ns to mix np “plans” and
proposals ” in the same thing. Knowing no
better, we would have thought it more desirable
for the Board to decide on something like the
amount to be spent on the building; then, with
this limitation, invite architects to offer “ plans, ”
drawings, etc. The proper getting up of these,
we—in our ignorance—suppose would require
so much of a competent man’s time that two
hundred dollars would not be a sufficient com
pensation. Poor pay is generally supposed to
be intended for poor work; so, no doubt, the
Dooly architect thought when he figured on
foolscap.
But having secured in any way a satisfactory
plan,” it seems to us that the next thing will
be to give the borne mechanics an opportunity
by letting out by contract the different parts of
tiie work. The mason, the carpenter, and all
the other trades would each have a chance to
get a share of the work, and the Board would
secure the lowest price.
All this may be intended; if it is, no harm is
done. The Board will only know what is some
times said, and often thought by many of the
Outsiders.

Affairs In Webster County.
Preston, Webster Co., Ga., May 27, 1809.
Editors Telegraph: Your correspondent, “M.
D.,” from Weston, writes on the nth ultimo,
that the prospects of planters in this county
were somewhat flattering. The weather, since
that time, has continued cold enough for March,
until day before yesterday, when it commenced
moderating and to-day is quite warm. And I am^
sorry to inform your numerous readers that the
crop prospects in Weston are gloomy indeed. /
Three-fourths of the lands in our county'are
what is termed gray or. sandy soils, ana the
crops on them suffered much more than'lhe red
lauds. I have both red and sandy lan<ls on my
farm, and I was under the necessity of plough
ing np and replanting a portion of my cotton
on the gray lands; but on my red lands my cot
ton was but little affected with the cold.
Our com is small for this date, and in most
instances is suffering for work, on account of
the heavy rains that have fallen in this and ad
joining counties, packing the soil so that it needs
stiring to break the hard crust formed on the
surface.
The wheat crops are not as good as vras antici
pated they would be one month back. The
heads are very short and not well filled. Fall
oats are doing better than any other portion of
our crop. The spring oats are too low and I
fear will make a poor crop.
The heavy rains have brought forth any quan
tity of grass, and our planters are hard up to
procure labor sufficient to successfully manage
their large cotton crops. Many were thrown
back in having to replant.
Our freedmen are doing better than usual, as
they have no bureau to consult about every little
trifle that formerly appeared a great mountain
of difficulties. Neither have they carpet-baggers
or scalawags in our county to influence them
against their own interest and the interest ef
their employers. The most of them have come
to the very rational conclusion that their old
masters are their best friends. J. W. J.
Attempt to Commit Suicide.—On Thursday night
last a negro woman, who is the cook for one of our
best families, attempted to commit suicide, fcfce
bad bad a falling out with her husband, and, jin
consequence, all tho sweets of connubial bliss hid
vanished like mist before tho morning sun or dey-
drops from the petals of tho rose. The world wfs
all dark to her when he frowned—all light and sun
shine when he smiled; but now that frown wls
fixed, and no fond and loving arts could smooth Es
‘ wrinkled front.” She saw all her fond hopes anl
affections hurled, in a twinkling, into the deep abyss
of a darkey’s indignation and scorn, and why might
she not follow them ?
“What's Hecuba to him, or he to Hecuba?”
She frantically asked herself. We wonld not weep
for her. He would rejoice at her “taking off,” and
with this sweet thought, that she wonld die to cause
one more sweet smile to play upon his sable brow,
though that smile leaped from her lifeless form,
she determined to produce it; so, with rolling eye3
and distorted features, she gulped, from a tin cup,
about a half pint of “lodnum.” .In her eagerness,
however, she took too much, and her convulsions,
attracting attention, a physician was galled, who
pumped out all the cold “pizen,” and tdi^the great
chagrin and disappointment of her cruellprd, she
still lives. Try etiyebnine or snake-bite, Ai
Special Commission.—With the exception
one white man in this community, and a few ne
groes, our citizens have felt greatly wronged and
unjustly injured by the appointment of the negro,
H. M. Turner, to the postmastership of Macon; and
many, cherishing tho hope that if a commission of
our best and most worthy citizens would visit Wash
ington and personally appeal to the President to
withdraw the appointment, he would do so, they se
lected, almost unanimously, Hon. C. B. Cole, Judge
of the Macon Circuit: Hon. Thos. Hardeman, Jr.,
and Dr. E. L. Strohecker, as a special commission
to visit Washington City, immediately, and ask that
the appointment of Turner be revoked.
By request of citizens and with the consent of the
Bar, Judge Cole adjourned the Superior Court on
Friday, in order to comply with the call made upon
him to visit Washington, and he left tho same even
ing for that city.
Whilst we regret aa much, if not more than oth
ers, the appointment of Turner, (for nearly nine-
tenths of our business is done through the Macon
postofiiee.) and most earnestly hope these commis
sioners will accomplish the purpose for which they
visit Washington; yet, we fear that they will fail,
and if so, it will only add to our humiliation and
sharpen the sting of the insult offered in the ap
pointment.

Augusta, Ga., May2C, 1SG9.
Messrs. Editors : I see by an article in your
paper of to-day, that I am represented as a ref
ugee from my native home, and that I am
afraid to return. This is news to me, and will
be to my old friends and acquaintance. _ I can
not imagine from whence the author derived his
information, certainly not from me or from the
people of my county. I would not notice the
article on my own account, but I feel it is due
the people of my county, who have so often
honored me with their confidence, to contradict
the statement as being utterly without founda
tion. It is unnecessary for me to say that I am
opposed to further reconstruction, and to
further military rule over the people
Georgia. I think they are capable of en
forcing civil law, and I am certainly de
sirous of giving them the privilege of doing so.
“Let us have peace.” In this connection, it
may not be amiss to say that I am no longer a
member of the honorable body to which refer
ence is made—haying several days since ten
dered my resignation. My business called me
to Augusta, and is the reason of my being in
the city, and not the fear of injury or hurt to
myself from the people of my county; for if
there is one place above all others, and it was
necessary for me to fly to a place for refuge, it
would be to my native home, amidst friends of
my youth. Respectfully

Two miles from tho Goshen Detor of tho Chesa

NATURE’S REMEDY FOR CHRONIC DISEASES!
Medical Properties and Uses of the Water;
This water combines in a remarkable degree those
properties which renderit a remedial agent of pecu
liar, perhaps of unequalled value for the eradication
of disease and the restoration of health.
The extraordinary cures which have been made
by it in many Chronic Diseases and in some cases
which seemed almost hopeless, justly entitle it to
rank with tho most famous Mineral Springs of Vir- 1
ginia and the world. Indeed there is strong reason
to believe that in many of the most serioos, unman
ageable and widely prevailing diseases that afflict
the human race, the Cold Sulphur Water is not only
the most safe, mild and pleasant, hut also the most
certain and effective remedy yet discovered.
Under its benign, revolutionizing and renovating
influences, many chronic maladies vanish like the
mists of the morning under the unclouded rays of
the sun: the ruddy glow of .health revisits pallid
cheeks to which it had become a stranger; in many
cases animation, elasticity, energy and buoyancy su
persede the bodily languor, debility,irritation and dis
ease which had long reigned supreme in the system,
and cheerful spirits,- tho natural companions of vigo
rous health, take the place of that gloomy and mel
ancholy condition of the mind which is thelegitimate
offspring of physical suffering.
This water presents the rare combination of Ape
rient, Diuretic, Diaphoretic, Alterative, Tonic and
and Eutrophic properties. Acting freely upon the
Bowels, Liver, Kidneys, and Skin, it thoroughly pu
rifies the blood, and eliminates from the system the
essential elements of disease; while it invigorates
the stomach; enriches the vital fluid; gives tone
and energy to the muscles and nerves; renovates
the entire organism, and re-establishes health and
strength.
In Dyspepsia, Liver Disease, Bilious Complaints,
Coslivcness, General Debility, It is a remedy of un
surpassed utility and power.

Court Adjourned.—The Bibb Superior Court, for
reasons stated elsewhere, adjourned Friday morn
ing till tho second Monday in June—that is, next
Monday two weeks. The case of Morton. against
Martin, for false imprisonment, resulted in a mis
trial, as the jury, up to 1 o’clock Friday morning,
failed to agree upon a verdict, and they .were dis
charged. Eleven were for the defendant and one
for the prosecution.
With pleasure we call attention to the following
letter from Rev. J. S. Key, commending Dr. Ban
ning for what has come under his own observation:
Macon, Ga., May 29th, 1869.
Db. E. P. Banning—Dear Sir: It gives me pe
culiar pleasure to speak in commendation of your
Symmetrizing Brace. Its use in my family, now for
a short time, has resulted in the most magical bene
fits. I have seen nothing to approach it for the
perfection of its plan and the ease and comfort of
its action. For all cases of drooping, flatness of
chest, roundness of shoulders and incipient spinal
weakness and disorder, I am confident it will fur
nish an immediate and permanent relief; therefore,
I esteem it both a privilege and duty to call the at
tention of parents and the public to its great value.
Respectfully, Jos. S. Ket.
Cases of Erysipelas, Rheumatism and Cutaneous
Eruptions have been cured by the Cold Sulphur
Water. Asthma, Chronic Bronchitis and Chronic
Pneumonia will either receive much relief and mit
igation from its use, or be entirely cured by it.
Various Chronic functional derangements of the
Heart, the Brain, and the Lungs, and some forms
of Neuralgia, Gout and Scrofula are, in fact,
sympathetic or secondary diseases, and have their
prime cause or origin in, and aro kept alive by a
deranged, enfeebled and irritable condition of tho
stomach and alimentary canal. In such cases the
Cold Sulphur Water, by virtue of its unequalled
curative and restorative powers in diseases of the
Digestive Organs, is the appropriate remedy.

terms have been agreed upon between Rnd ° ou g 0 about to harmonise them, and
in this you utterly foil. To the Armenian he
says, you admit that they are both revealed and
you insist that they aro irreconcilable, and you
are put upon the necessity of discarding the
doctrine of election, or of giving to it a signifi
cance which reason and the letter of the scrip
tures reject, and therefore I am constrained to
dissent from both.
The objector, from his standpoint, has the
advantage, and his infidel tendencies are
strengthened. How much better would it not
be for both parties to admit that the antagonism
of these doctrines is irreconcileable—that this
antagonism is a mystery that finite mind cannot

Heaven that there are things in it that reason
cannot master. Were it otherwise, it might
with justice be impugned as the work of man.
The history of the church demonstrates that
the Gospel plan is one of progressive develop
ment There is reason to believe that it will re
quire cycles of Heavenly years to unfold its en
tire significance. "When, therefore, we find in
it mysteries, we should subject them to the ar-
britrament of Faith. This is a conclusion at
which tho pride of intellect revolts. That pride
is that of the American Honse. Guests
find that every provision has been made for
needs and pleasures while sojourning in

that it is no part of the Telegraph’s bn-

The last number of the Imperialist has the
following. Is it the case of the fly upon the
cart wheel, or is the Grand Army really a part
of the Grand Empire ?
“The ‘Grand Army of the Republic’ bos just
held its annual convention, and is more prosper
ous than ever. The public has no true idea of
the immense power which this immense organ
ization could wield, should its services be called
for. It is a disciplined army, four hundred
thousand strong, and nine-tenths of its mem
bers are veteran soldiers. This silent, unno
ticed army garrisons tho entire North. It can
fntrA the field at an hour's notice, and what pos
sible force could be raised to resist it, should
the ‘long roll’ once be beaten from Maine to
Minnesota.
“The badges of the various army corps which
are still warn by the veterans of the Federal
army, show how strong is tho veteran s instinct
for decorations, which are proof of his valor in
the field. The Empire will hove its Legion of
Honor, and will know how to reward bravery
and devotion.”

A Rogue Caught.—Tho negro boy, Luther, who
has been attending the store of I. Morris, on Cher
ry street, has been suspected for some time of
stealing articles from the store; but, until yester
day, had managed to escape detection. Yesterday
morning, however, as Mr. D. Abrams and brother
were passing along the street in front of the store,
they saw Luther handling a pair of shoes in a sus
picious maimer, whilst Mrs. Morris was in the back
part of the building, and they passed on a few steps,
and stopped until Luther came out. He did 60
very soon, and with a water-bucket on his head, for
he was on his way to the Lanier Honse pump. Mr.
Abrams then told Mrs. Morrris what ho had seen,
and on examination it was found that a pair of
shoes was missing. Mr. A- immediately followed
Luther, and came up with him around on Second
street, with the bucket still on his head. It was
lowered to tho side-walk, and in it were the shoes.
The rouge was caught, dead, at last, and instead of
going to the pump, ho was about-faced and marched
to jail.
A Singular Accident.—A few days ngo, r.s
two young men by the name of Stovall and Haw
ris, of Franklin county, were traveling togethe-
on horseback, Mr. Stovall’s horse, being rather
spirited and bard to control, became angry with
the horse Mr. Harris was riding, and in attempt
ing to bite the horse chanced to seize Mr. Har
ris by the ankle, and snatched him from his
saddle, at tho same timo crushing tho bones of
the leg, which ho still held firmly between bis
teeth. After Mr. Harris had been held in this
condition for some timo, and several times se
verely pawed by the horso as ho held him, ho
was released. At last accounts his physician
thought amputation wonld bo necessary. Mr.
Harm is an estimable yonng man, and has

A handsome young woman was found on

was seen on West street, Brooklyn.

Mrs. Sarah Cook died in Fall River on Satur

Juby “in a Tight.”—On Thursday night last the
jury in tho Morton and Martin caso, after having
tried all day to make up a verdict, but without suc
cess, found themselves “in a tight” about 12 or “
o’doek that night At an early hour in the evening
they began to sprawl themselves about on the
benches and desks to take a little nap whilst the one
contrary juror was being worried into terms; but tho
benches, chairs, etc., were nono of your “flowery
beds of ease,” and instead of bringing the juror,
who was tho cause of their sufferings, to terms—for
they were hungry, thirsty and tired—ho started
them, about tho middlo of tho night, to dowsing
ways and means to give tho bailiff or guard tho slip,
or, at least, to “got up” some refreshments; for
they were in the socond story of tho City Hall,
they turned in and mado a ropo out of the strong
hemp carpeting, and let one or two of their number
down, who soon had the necessary comforts scaling
tho wall and entering tho window. When it was
discovered that they had flanked their guard, and
had partaken of enough refreshments to last them
till morning, and that it was no longer possible

o’clock, discharged. ■

Extracts from a letter of Dr. C. R. Harris, a dis

of tho curative power of the Cold Sulphur Water in
disoaaes of tho Stomach, Liver, Kidneys and Skin.
“From what I havo known and now witness by 00
cular demonstration, I havo no hesitation in stating
that as a valuable Tonic, Alterative or Lutrophic and
Diuretic, tho Cold Sulphur has no superior, if an
equal, anywhere.
“In diseases of tho Liver, Stomach, Kidneys and
Skin its curativo power is wonderful. Tho larger
proportion of patients who aro now inattondanco
have been and aro now suffering from Chronic Gas-
tritas or Dyspedsia, with sympathetic functional dis
turbance of tho Liver and Kidneys. And tho cura
