Tub Root and Shoe Trade.—Atlanta is
establishing a reputation in this line, which
is carrying much of the trade of Southwest
Georgia to that city. The leading house in
the boot and shoe trade is that of G. 11. & A

Randolph County Bible Society, was held in
the Presbyterian Church in Cuthbert, Ga., on

Tlie report of the Treasurer, was read and
received as satisfactory.
An able and interesting discourse was de
livered hy Rev. W. A. Parks, Bible agent for
the State of Georgia.
After the sermon a collection was taken
up, resulting iu the raising of about ninety
dollars, Cash and subscription, for the bene
fit of tbe county society.

The case of Cijy Council of Cuthbert, vs.

amount of $447.
The docket is being disposed of as rapid
ly as could be expected, but it will probably
require two weeks to get through with the
business.
The attendance of legal genllemen from
other counties is smaller than common. We
have met, Hons. C. B Wooten and S. D. Ir
win, from Macon ; Hon. F. M. Harper, and
Judge Wiley G. Parks, of Dawson.
The grand Jury is composed of the very
best men of the county, and otir citizens

The Petit Juries are made up of a high
order of citizenship, and justice is sure to

Randolph Agricultural Society.— Tbe
regular monthly meeting of the Society was
held at the Court House in Cnthbert, on Sat
urday, Oct. 4tb, Judge Win. Coleman in the
chair.
The following resolutions, laid oa the ta
hie at tortner meeting, were taken up and
passed :
Resolved, That E. L. Douglass, H. Fiel
der, Geo. Smith, A. B. McAfee and O. I’.
Beall, be appointed a committee to confer
with Rev. Samuel Anthony. Agent South
Ga. Conference for an Orphan’s Home, as to
the probability cf locating that institution at
or near Cuthbert.
Resolved, That each member pf this So
ciety pledge himself not to plaVit more than
six acres of cotton to each hand employed,
the balance of land cultivated to be devoted
to other crops.
The following preamble and resolutions
offered by N. T. Crozier at former meeting,
were taken up, amended and adopted.
Whereas, It has been the custom of far
mers in cur county to give liens upon their
growing crops, for fertilizers, provisions, Ac.,
which action we deem unwise and ruinous
to the farming interest; and. Whereas, some
in our county are promising and paying al
on st any price to secure laborers—even to
half the gross proceeds of the entire crop ;
therefore be it
Resolved. That no member of this Socie
ty will U'gin a crop with the expectation of
giving liens upon the same for any fertilizers,
bacon, corn, or material consumed in the
cultivation of the same.
Resolved, That no member of this Socie
ty will give half the gross proceeds of the
crop lor labor.
On motien of O. P. Beall,
Resolved. That J. B Buchanan, Secretary
and treasurer, of this Society, be requested
to bring up the minutes, and other records,
and have them present at the next meeting.
Also, that be make a report of the financial
condition of the Society. Adopted.
On motion of Elam Christian,
Resolved, That it is the sense of this So
ciety, that the lien system of cultivating
crops, is deleterious to the planting interesls
of the State at this time—however necessary
it may have been at the time of its adoption
—and that our representatives in the present
Legislature be earnestly requested to use
their utmost endeavors to procure the repeal
of tbe law defending tbe same at the earliest
possible day. Adopted.
The Society then adjourned to meet the
first Saturday in December, at 11 o'clock.
A. M. Titos. Coleman, Sec'y.
Rev. W. A. Parks’ Ser
mon, at the Anniversa
ry of* Randolph County
Rible Society.
This discourse was IL-tened to with marked
attention hy the large audience present at the
Bible Society*’ Anniversary, on Sabbath
morning hut. We would not attempt even
an imperfect synopsis, hut for the dissemi
nation of important information ; and we can
not hope to gi> e this in the well count cted
aud impressive language of the able speaker :
The text was taken from the •Second Psalm,
7th and Bih verses :
*' I will declare the decree : the Lord hath
said unto me, Thou art my Son ; this day have
I begotten thee.
“A>kof me and I shall give the heathen for
thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts ot
the ea th for thy possession.”
Tlie preacher started out with the statea ent
that the world had never known anything to
progress to such au extent as the Gospel of
Christ. It descended to earth as a queen of
might, and sent oat its messengers—conquer
ing aud to conquer— till millions own her alle
giance. The glorious wfl: fare si ill goes on,
and will continue till prophecy is fulfilled—till
the heathen of all lands listen with joy to the
gospel sou id, and the uitermost parts of the
earth feel the genial influence of gospel light
Tiiis decree teaches the diviuity of the Lord
Jesus Christ, and is cor robot ated by revelations
that spoke out from Heaven, saying “ This i„
my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased.”
While infidelity denies the divine origin of
Christ, it is compelled to admit enough to
make Him more than human. The infidel has
no stronghold but is weakened by the life of
the Savior, though denying his resurrection
from the dead.
Chrisl satisfied the demands of the law, and
tlie promised reward of the Father Was the
conversion of the world. It is not only true
that this is prophecy, but it is also true that
the prophecy is daily being fulfilled. This is
tlie brightest day that ever dawned oil the
earth because of this fulfillment. The two
principal instrumentalities employed by God
for the accomplishment of this great work are
the preaching of the word and the distribu
tion of the Bible
lie then spoke of the wonderful preserva
tion of the revealed will of God to man. More
than -1,0(10 years were occupied ill making this
revelation to earth, aud that it might be per
fect and nnmistakable, every effort divine wis
dom could suggest was exercis' and in making it.
It is uot strange that Heaven should he engag"
ed to preserve the Bible —Heaven's revela
lions to m n, containing the only knowledge
we have of the Father. Four hundred and
twenty years ago the iiist Bibb; was printed
with t.pe—the Bible was the first book print,
ed—at Metz, in Germany, in the Latin lan
guage. Seventy-five years ago there was not
a Bible Sociiey in the world. One hundred
years ago, the Bible was uot primed in fifty
different languages—to-day it is being printed
aud read in 3;l0 languages. 75 years ago the
process of priming was very glow—now three
Bibles are printed every second of time.- 61
years ago the British and Foreign Bible Socie
ty was organized, for printing the Bible in
cheap form for the poor. That Society has
printed 4,030,000 Bibles, and the American
Bible Society, its offspring, 1.500,000 —so that
the world is being inundated with the waters
of life. The circulation of the Bible has pro
gressed more in the last, fifty years than in all
time past. It has recently been printed iu
the Arabic language—giving it access to mil
liors who could not be reached iu any other
way. 150,000,001) of Mohammedans have
been raised from the cradle to consider this a
sacred language; and no matter how hard
pressed parents may be with poverty, the child
is taught the Arabic language. This is the
greatest achievement of those engaged iu
this glorious work. These people believe the
vowel points iu that language were made by
the finger of God ; and within the past four
years tlie Society has sacceed -d in printing in
that language with the vowel points—so that
the True word, is rapidly taking the place of
the Coran throughout that benign land. Tbe
zeal manifested by these ignorant people is a
standing rebuke to those iu Christian lands
who take so little interest in the religious
training of their children.
Even the roaming Turks about Jerusalem
are now receiving the Bible—and in Ancient
Bethany, so long shrouded in spiritual gloom,
the spite of a Christian Chnroli points Heav
enward.
The Bible is also being printed in the Chi
nese language—last year 15,000,000 copie ß
wire sent to that land. Notwithstanding the
strong opposition—the edicts forbidding the
t aching of women in English schools, <&c.,
the w ork goes on ; ail 1 to day, a Chinaman,
convoited in liis own land, is in America, as a
Christian missionary to his people in this coun
try.
Large numbers of the Bibles printed by this
Society are bought by the Roman Catholic
priests in Italy, Mexico, and tlesewhpre, and
burned before the people in the streets. In
ete.id of checking its spread, even this is
working good to the canse—the people hav
ing their curiosity aroused—examining for
themselves and being convinced and conveit
ea. Let them contiuue to burn Bibles and
martyr Christians, as they ever have; it will
only enrich Immanuel’* land. There is not fire
enough lo burn out the religion of Christ.—
Those parents in thi< Protestant land, who
thoughtlessly send their children to Unman
Catholic institutions, received a witheiiug re
buke. Romanism has lost its stronghold, and
is getting weaker and weaker iu the Eastern
countries, and America is looked to as their
promised land. The fight of Roman Caihoii
cism and protestantisru will have to be fought
over again. lie spoke of the growing pow
er of that church in our land, and meutioned
oue church in Atlanta with eight hundred
members, and oue of the finest buildings iu
the State.
He theu referred to the work iu India.—
They 100 have a sacred i.inguage ; hut the Bi
ble has been suited to their understanding and
one man has distributed 2,000,0011 copies iu that
land. Even without missionaries lo aceompa
ny it the Word is accomplishing wonders iu
that laud.
Russia, Turkey and Mexico are being prot
estautiztd. The Sandwich Islands, reclaimed
front Herthaaism, is now sending Christian
missionaries abroad. There is not now a
single nation whose doors are bolted against
the missionary and the Bible. Verily, the
n termost parts of the earth are open to the
reception of the glad tidings of great joy.—
Even iu Rome, when Victor Immanuel took
possession of the city, the Pope’s Soldiers
swore allegiance to the new kiug on the Bi
ble, instead of the Crucifix Two Bible men,
Methodist and Presbyterian, went with the
king’s forces, and spread their tables under
the very shadow ol St. Peter’s spire. Indeed
there was never a time when divine light
spread with such rapidity us the present. The
faith of the chmch needs toning np on God’s
promises, to complete the great woik un
dertaken. The missionary and Bible canse—
sisters of mercy—go hand in hand, and even
now God is giving His Son the Heathen
for an inheritance. Governments may tum
ble, and kings fall, but the banner of the
cross shall never go down.
