—On Sabba ,h night, despite the soaked earth
and falling rain, the new Methodist church W«s
crowded to its utmost cmacity with an immense
congregation, all eager to listen to the young
prodigy who had been announced tor the even
ing.
In physic il appearance Mr. ll oil \ml is slender
sind very youththl. with mi.d m l w ntting min
ner s. He is the very antipod *of the great di
vtae who prec-ed -d im tne .-veiling tiefore, and
yet equally distinguished for oloqu race and lib
tellectnal power.
"JL'he one storms the battlements of error and
carries the ramparts sword in hand. The other
with his dulcet strains wins over the garrison.
and causes the gates to'fly open, as though touch
'Ad by the magicians wand. The one is nervous’
uncouth, and imp •tn.ms in his utterances. The
other graceful, polished, and enphonious in word
and manner. The one alarms , electrifies, and
overpowers his hearer. The otner charms, snb
dties and disarms him. The one reasons a fortio
ri and annihilates opposition. The other by the
Inductive method charm% the senses, and ttihds
his way into the hearts and consciences of his
auditors. The one is the religious courtier,——
the other the bold and bluff advocate of tnlth.
With all these dissimilarities however, each
haa an equal love for their comntJn Lord and
Master, each an equal zeal to win souls into the
kingdom, and each wields an equal influence
from opposite stand points, upon the churchand
people of God.
The theme of the speaker was the power of
the gospel, unto salvation.
Those who listened to his entrancing eloquence
felt that he himself was a striking, living exem
plar of the message lie would inculcate.
The priceless love of Jesus, the power of faith,
the guilt of being ashatnid of our Lord, the all
sufficient sufferings and atonement of the Savior
■ of mankind, all these topics were portrayed with
• might, aud felicity of illustration, at once con
vincing and irresistible.
Never will his scathing animadversions also
upon the hollow coavoniimulities, the devotion
to fashion, the subservience to rank and station,
and the unblushing hypocrisy which too often
eutor within the pale of tbs church, cease to be
remembered-
For splendor of diction, fluency of expression’
brilliancy of imagination, aud refinement and
polish, coupled with no small degree of nervous
strength, this gifted young thcotogian and Chris
tian, has few, it auy equals in America.
The discourses of Dr. Munsey ami Mr. Holland,
are alone amp’ y sufficient to r- ply the visitor

Missionary M tETtsa—Saturday. ‘evening,
which had been Set aside for the consutererion of
domestic missions, in compliment to Dr. Mnnsty
tb* agent for foreign hhissiofA for the Methodist
ehurcb South, was devoted 4o the diAnwion and
furtherance of that branoh of the Christian work
After the repot 1 * of the several Districts of the
State bad been submitted. 'With tbe amount of
funds contributed by each. Dr. Mnnsey was in
troduced to the -audience and fprdeeeded to ad
dress them.
The porwinal appearance of tbe Doctor is
n iqne, and far 'from prepossessing. His face
has the mongol cast, aud no prick eared con ven
auter in the days of Cromwell ever bad bis seaip
more closely shaVen
A few energetic sentences, serveo however to'
dispel any douiit or prejudice wbicn his curious
personcl might have aw.ikertei in the minds of his
auditors. Soon it became very apparent that no
ordinary ‘man stood b -fore them.
Br. Muisey’s first spoke of the missionary work
in its infancy. Fifty yeiits ago one Smalt chant'
ber'Would haVe contaln- A every rtifMohar'y on i
the globe. Now 4# JO heralds of the cross pro-j
Claimed sfdValion to a dying 'Wot ld. The con-'
Vef-’ts also numbered millions, and ten millions of
dollars had teen expanded the past year s*l tlie
missionary fi--ld.
The two great enemies oftbe Wofk were irtl
delity and si.dflshnesa. Much had been said of
What it costs to conv -rt oneTi rathun But that
-cost decreases in the snm • ratio that the number
of converts increase*. New ft-Sds embr.icin?
Mexico, f-iemfh America and Cuba were opening
tip to-our very doors, aud called for gr -ater ef
forts on the part of the church.
Tlie speak -r then in glowing and impassioned
terms p tinted the rnefftidl ibis value of the soul.
And here the rfeport f’s p -ncillinis were sud.
denly ti-rminated For a* well could the pen Iteep
pate wiih ih-fagiftg Whiriwin 1. or with tbe roat*
iiig tatutact leaping fh.m cjiff to cliff, at with
that resistless flood of .doqSeace which' swept ev
cry thing la-fore it
Such gifts of speech, such powers of imagery,
and siieh rugg ’.dlighr.iiiiig like illustrations drawn
from heaven, earth and fi 11, which' caused tbe
hrealh to come and go.and the chest to heave with
excitement, we have never Is-fore witnessed. Tbe
people were he'd spell bound, and sobr. and ex
clamations, and those tumultuous emotions which
stir the heart to Us innermost depths, struggled
for utterance..
Carried away by the glorious grandeur of htf
theme, the orator himself seemed enthused and
wrought tip almost to a pitch of plirensy. Hi*
frantie gestures, rapid utterance, ami majestic
presence, well nigli transform id him Into some
thing more than human.
We began to fear with Wirt in hi? description
of the blind preacher, that our speaker could nev
er descend froth the lofty heights to which he
had borne his auditory. But tbe closing sen
tences in which ttie church was represented un
der the figure of a ship with its crew of ebristuus
on board, and Jesus at the helm, proved the grand
culminating climacteric of tbe discourse, and lie
sat down amid the tears and triumphant shouts
and ejaculations of the vast assembly.
One such effort is sufficient to stamp with im
mortality the tniftd that produces it.
A handsome sum was then raised to defray tbe
missionary "debt of the church, and the exercises
closed with the benediction.

Tlie Speaker said the knowledge of God was
elemental and experimental. This would con*
stitute the burden of his discourse : *• The be

This is eleuieutal and experimental kuowl
edge.

Again, the ceaseless effort of our divine Cre.
ato is so to reveal itims.-lf, that all of Uis chil
dren may have full, ficcarate ami suftcient
knowledge of Itis being and glorious attributes.
The old dispensation of sacrifice was iustitu
ted, for this purpose, to typity the death, atone
meat, and meditation, of our Lord, and Saviour.
So did His prophets subsequently teach, and in
t)ie same manner did the burning bush and that
fearful voice reveal to the trembling Moses, the
majesty, character, and ui-rcy of (-tod.
tact ns censidtt the mode of this revelation.
The Hebrews had been groaning under a cruel
bondage for many generations.
Their manhood, self-reliance and indepen
dence were gone. They labored from day to
day in t m brick kilns of Egypt and were requi
ted to mike mortar without ttraw. Without
nationality, they sittlpiy filled the ftlle of slaves.
It was necessary that they should lie educated,
aud fitted for that glorious destiny which was in
store for them.
Hence the Deity sought to do this by itnpar
tiilg a knowledge of MimsClf—hy graving upon
their lieaits and minds just conceptions of His
potter, tVisdom and providence.
They heeded these lessons to hold their besot
ted hearts in subjection to God.
They were u:terly unable to •■efctize and com
prehend the great, purposes of Jehovah, and the
deliverance to lie vouchsafed to thttift Hence
proofs, convincing, Undeniable prooft were nec
essary.
God. therefore reveals His providence and
might to the people, through llis servant Moses
This mau of God,rescued sos that purpose in his lit
tie cradle amid the bulrushes and crocodiles of th* 1
Nile, appears before Pharaoh thl! King, and de
mands that he sh uld -Met his people go.” He
says, the Lord hath sent me that His people
should go out and worship -the God of their f*.
there. Pharaoh asks, who is the Lord ? The God
of Heaven replies, l>vill teach the proud mon
arch Who I am, bj lessons of blood, and lice, and
locusts, and pestilence.
But God hardens his heart that he might noi
believe, and submitted him to the test of the
hail and murrain, which swept atviljr all cattle,
and finally laid His hand upon the first born of
the King, and every inhabitant of the land, save
>thc children of Israel. *
Then did Pharaoh’s heart quake Within him,
and he permitted the Hebrews after spoiling
their oppressors to go forth with bounding foot,
steps and rejoicing hearts.
To compass his utter ruin, and signalize still
further the power of Israel’s God, the heart of it-
Egyptian King was again hardened, and he r»-
peuted of his consent, and with his war charios
and a mighty army pursued after the fugitives.
But the greatest display of the divine povv-r
was yet to be manifested, in the rolling back up
on the struggling host of the angry w iters of the
red sea. so that all perished miserably in f„;|
view of the Hebrew multitude.
Thus was Israel taught the ' goodness, pdttrr
and providence of the God who led them tort,.

vers ways, ’is ever manifesting Himself as in tie
infancy of our face, to the objects of His creation

A goodly array, numbering of the
t(right eyed girl* and promising boys of tbe city,
with their teachers, formed aa interesting audivo-tl
.yf while the crowd of adults occupied dir if ry
ot her available inch of space.
After appropriate singing, Hev. Godfrey,
of Atlanta, pronounced an excellent address fall
ot piety and good counsels, and was followed by
J. <l. Sidrank of Mnrshalirille. This gentlemaA
by bis tirnag app-iU interspersed with agree
abie aivcdotes. completely enlisted tbe attention
of the vast audience. Some passages of bis ad*
dress rose to tbe dignity of true eloquence. Dr.
Smith then followed with one of bis character
istic efforts.
The Doctor is possessed of an. im'-ert«rbab>e
equanimity, which no surrounding* can over
throw.
Rising at a late hour of the evening before a
fatigued assemblage of sleepy juveniles, to speak
upon a theme already apparently exhausted, his
task was indeed a difficult one. Bat in five

Nor did he disappoint their expectations.—
While a substratum of fervent piety and
practical application, lay beneath bis exhorta
tions, they Yfrere diversified with telling anec
dotes and amusing incidents wbicb completely
carried away his hewrers.
One little fellow said he intended to come ev
ery night to Conference.
We are tempted to reproduce some of the fe
licitous illustrations used to evince the profound
ignorance of the bible, which obtaMt evtln
among the educated of the land. But no de
scription could do justice to tbe vivacity at and
tact of the speaker, ■aftd our limits forbid am
plification.
Indeed, subsequent rehearsals of brilliant say

speaker and hearer has subsided, are always
state and inadequate
We will mention one
Descanting upon borne influence and the pow

But however reluctantly, wo are forced to holu
in tbeyence tbe skein ton sketch which was jotted
doftii fit the Several addresses of the night.
Tbe report of Mr. Dean on Sunday Schools
wa< deeply interesting and contained many sali

One of the speakers announced also, that in
the United States, tbe sub bat# school army num
bered one and a ! a f millions of pupils, and the
stati tics of the church showed that eight out of
ten of the annual converts were members of these
school* or bad formerly belonged to them.
The exercises closed with that beautiful refrain,

•have been that bosom, which could tie insensible
to the touching melody which filled the air from
the lisping voices of that multitude of children.

g®* The Savannan papers announce
the dealh of Maj. Anthony Porter, for
mer president of the bank of the State
of Georgia.
From our earliest boyhood we have
known and enjoyed the friendship of
this excellent man.
His name was a synonifti for hones
ty, and no citizen ever passed through
a long career of public life, with a repu
tation mere spotless and untarnished.
His largo heart and beneVoUtbt cotih
tenanoe, will long be remembered “on
change,” in the city with which he has
been identified for more than a halfcbti
tury.
A visitor at the recent Alabama
State Fair, held at Montgomery, gives
rather a doleful account, as will be seen
by the following : “A slim show of
plows and other agricultural imple
ments, a few wagons, one buggy, one
carriage, two edok stoves, and ono bag
of cotton below stairs, in the only huild
ingon the grounds. Quite a creditable

ty of patch work quilts, rag rugs, piano
covers, etc., above stairs in the same
building, and you have the Alabama
State Fair.”
Bgk, It is somewhat remarkable that
our “dlstingtiished Northern gu. «ts,’ <
whom we took M much trouble to bring
to Georgia, and Who expressed them
selves delighted with everything and ev*
erybody, no sooner roach their home
than a simultaneous fire commences
-dong the whole Radical line against
our State, with peremptory demands
that a military despotism be again erec

some sense after a while, it is hoped.—
