The corn and cotton crops of 1ES7
were the largest ever produced in the
South, and, as good/prices were n;;d-
I ized, the farmers found themselves at
| the beginning of 1888 in a much bet-
\ ter financial condition than for many
years. Blessed as the farmers of the
South were last year * ith abundant
crops, present indications point to a
season of still greater agricultural
prosperity. The yield of fruit and
vegetables has boon unprecedente dly
heavy, and the shipments North have
taxed the carrying capacity of the
railroads. The yield of wheat in most
of the Southern States, especially in
those in which it is a leading
crop, such as Maryland, Virginia,
Tennessee, etc., has been phenomenal
ly large, and the aggregate yie.hl for
the South will doubtless be the great
est on record. Moreover, the short
age in the Western wheat crop has
enhanced values, and Southern farm
ers are obtaining much better prices
than a year ago.
The acreage of corn and cotton is
unusually heavy, greater even than
in 1887, when the largest crops ever
raised in the South were produced,
and so far in the season that indica-

farmers will have less Western corn
to buy than for many yqprs. In fact,
the South will almost be self-support

ClLWT.M^A, N. Y.. Aug. 5.—Tho
Rev, T. IK* Witt Tklmago, D. D., of
Brooklyn, is present fwtlie fweffth lime
nt the national meeting of religions edu
cators and students held yearly in this
place. Hi* sermon today, which was
delivered to an midienco imposing in
numbers and intclligenco, was from tlio
following text, in the book of Jeremiah
vi, 10: “Ask for tlie old patlis, whero
is tho good way, and walk therein, and
ye ftlir.ll find rest for your souls,** and
answered tho question: * “Is Orthodoxy
Stale and Unreasonable?** Following is
a verbatim report of it:
A great London fog has come down
upon some of the ministers and some of
thechurchrs in tho shape of what is willed
“advanced thought" in biblical interpre
tation. All of them, and without any
exception, deny tho full inspiration of
tho Bible. Genesis is an uliegory^nnd
there are many myths in tho Bible, and
they philosophlzo ami gure* and reason
ami ©volute until they land in a great
continent o? mud, from which, I fear,
for nil eternity they will not be able to
extricate themselves.

but it is divinely protect** 1 in its present
shape. You cculd as easi y, without de

years a man coul 1 liavd made any im
portant change in tlio Bil lo without im
mediate detection. If the *e had been an
element of weakness, or of deception, or
of disintegration, tho book would long
ago have fallen to pieces. If there had
l*een ono loose brick or cracked casement
in this castellated truth, sutely the lioni-
Kardment of eight centuries would have
discovered and broken through that im-
perfection. The fact that tho Bible

* ‘But, ** says some one, “while wo admit
tho Biblo is of God, it. has not been un
derstood until our time." My answer is,
that if tlie Bible Ik* a letter from God. our
Father, toman, his child, is it not strange
that that letter should have been written

THE UNIVERSITY TRUSTEES.
During the last session of the Gen
eral Assembly Mr. Murphy Candler,
inemltef from DeKalbaml :ui alumnus
of the University, introduced a hill
providing b»r a reduction in the nuni-
lH*r of the Board of Trustees. It was
deemed advisable by the friends of
tin* University that the bill should
not pass just at that time, and in com
pliance with their wishes Mr. Candler
withdrew it. The question will no
doun; crime up at the next session, and
it is earnestly hoped that a bill re-
du cihg the number of trustees from
41 tr 13 will pass. The Board is en
tirely too large and not at all repre
sentative. No reflection is intended
on the present Board, as it is com
posed of aide men, but it is universally
admitted to Ik? cumbersome ami .iot
so formed as to advance the Wst in
terests of the University. Thirteen
trustees is the greatest plenty, one
from each congressional district and
three from Athens, forming a pruden
tial committee. They might be elec
ted by the legislature, or appointed by
the Governor, subject to the conlirma-
b«n of the Senate. Something must
be done t.» bring the University into
closer relations with the people whose
institution it is. The removal of a
trustee from the district from which
he was elected should vacate theofiice.
nor should a trustee of the University
have any affiliations or connections
w ith the branch colleges. T hey are
suckers and not feeders, and as such
should not have the same guardians.
The actual expenses of the trustees
while attending to affairs of the Cni-
\fruity should he paid hy the State.

"About the sixth day I felt some

Imagine the man’s thrill of joy at
the sight of that fly ! Haggard's stuff
l^ecomes flat by the side of it.
Here we are every day anathema
tising the flies, when, under certain
conditions, we would welcome the

A BLOW TO BOYCOTTII\C-
A new Iwvveouing question has.in-cn
divided bv the Suprcihe Court of
Ma^;ichus«*tts.
The 1 listers Brotcctive Union
caused several men carrying placards
to walk up and down in front of a
shop in which the employes w ere on a
strike. The placards were intended
to keep new men from taking the
places of the strike.*.
The employers did not proceed
against the ofh .dcrs criminally or
sue lor damages, but applied for an
injunction to stop the placard busi
ness. rhe Supreme Court rules that
it was a proper case for an injunction.
It holds that the thing complained of
was a nuisance detrimental to the in
terests of the employers, and ns such
one that ought to be abated by the
Cour^.

An Old I telle.
The? crude paper money issued by
order of the continental congresa dur
ing flu* revolution is fast disappearing.
Now and then one comes up with a
bill of it. Mr. Henry Michcll Inn- a
thirty dollar bill of this old currency
in a fine state of preservation. It was
paid to Mr. Michell’s grandfather for
services rendered in the field. It is
almost square being by inches,
printed in black and red ink. The
note was signed by I. P. Gray and
John Helm, numbered 41,705, and
read: “The bearer is entitled to. re
ceive thirty Spanish milled dollars, or
an equal sum in gold or silver, accord
ing to resolution of January 14,1779.”
The reverse side has “Thirty Dollars”
in old quaint letters, and “Printed hy
Hall & Seller, 1779.” Mr. Michell
prizes the little brown thirty dollar
bill very much. But there is not
much probability that it will lie paid
in “Spanish milled dollars,” or coin
either.—Thomasville Times.

unhappy consequences of an early crop.

change my theories of religion I should
preach them out and out, hut not in the
building where 1 am accustomed to
preach, for that was erected hy people
who lielieve in an entire Bible, and it
would l»o dishonest for me to promulgate
sentiments different from those for which
that building was put up. When we
enter any denomination as ministers of
religion we take a solemn vow that we
will preach the sentiments of that de
nomination. If we cliange our theories,
as we liave a right to change them, then
there is a world several thousand miles
in circumference, and there are hundreds
of halls and hundreds of academies of
music where we can ventilate our senti
ments.
. I remember that in all our cities in
time of political notation there are the
Republican headquarter, und the Demo
cratic hcadquartera. Suppose I should
go into one of these headquarters pre
tending to bo in sympathy with their
work, at tlie same time electioneering for
the opposite party. I would soon find
that the centrifugal force was greater
tlrnn the centripetal! Now, if a man
enters a denomination of Christians, tak
ing a solemn oath, ns he will do, that he
will promulgate the theories of that de
nomination, and then the man shall pro
claim some other theory, ho lias broken
his oath and he is an out and out perjurer.
Nevertheless, I declare for largest liberty
in religious discussion. I would no more
have the attempt to rear a monument to
Thomas Paine interfered with than I
would have interfered with tlie lifting of
the splendid monument to Washington.
Largest liberty for the body, hugest lib-
erty for the mind, largest liberty for the
souk
Now, I want to show you, ns a matter
of advocacy for what I believe to be the
right, the splendors of orthodoxy. Many
have supposed that its disciples are peo-
•le of flat skulls, and no reading, and be
en‘Tinge. Tlie foundations of all tho
churches that are of very great uso in
tlri i world today were laiJ by men who
believed the Bible from lid to lid. and if
I canuot tako it in that way I will not
take it at all; just as if I received a letter
that pre* ended to ccmo Yom a friend,
and ixait of it was his and part somi body
else’s, and the other part simebody rise’s,
and it was a sort, of i tera? V mongrtlism,
1 would throw tlio garbled-sheets into the
waste basket.
No church of very great influence
today huff was built by those vriio lx?-
lieved in :ui entire Bible. Neither will a
church last long built on a part of tlie
Bible. You have noticed, I suppose, that
as soon as a man begins to giro up the
Bible he is apt to preach in somfc hall,
and he has an audience while lie lives,
and when he dies the church dies. If I
thought that my church in Brooklyn was
built on a quarter of a Bible, or a half
Bible, or three-quarters of a Bible, or
ninety-nino one-liundredths of ?f Bible,
1 would expect it to die when I die; but
when I know it is built on tho entire
Word of God, I know it will last 200
years after you and I sleep the Inst s'cep.
Oh, the splendors of an orthodoxy
which with 10,000 hands and 10,000 pul
pits and 10,000 Christian chinches, is
trying to save tlio world!
In Music Hall, Boston, fo? many years
stood Theodore Parker battling ortho-
• vxy, giving it, as some supposed at that
time, its death wound. lie was tlie most
fascinating man I ever heard or ever
expect to hear, and I came put from
hearing him thinking, in my boyhood
►Yell, that’s tlie death of the
church.” On that same street, and not
far from !x?ing opposite, stood Bark Con-
I grcgational church, called by its one- I
! mies **HeU2ro Ooimer.'” Theodore Bather ■
I died end his church died with him; or, j
if it is in existence, it is oO s*rall you !
cannot u*e it with tlie naked e..Bark j
Congregational church still stands on j
j »*Hellfiro Corner,*’ thundering away the |
I magnificent truths of this glorious, ortho- j
j doxy just as though Theodore Barker I
I had never lived. All that Boston, or !
j Brooklyn, or New York, or the world j
; ever .rot that is worth having cr.rie I
j through the wide aqueduct of orthodoxy
from the throne of God.
I Behold the splender3 of character built
! up by orthodoxy. Who had the^reatest
i human intellect the world ever knew?
Baul. In physical stature insignificant;
* in mind, head and shoulders above all
the giants of the ago. Orthodox from
scalp to heel- Who was the greatest poet
the ages evev saw, acknowledged to U; so
both by infidels and Christians? John
Milton, seeing more without eyes than
anybody else ever saw with eyes. Or
thodox from scalp to heel. Who was the
greatest reformer the world has ever
seen, so acknowledged by infidels as well
as by Christians? Martin Luther. Or
thodox from scalp to heel.
Then look at the certitudes. O man,
believing in an entire Bible, where did
you come from? Answer: “I descended
from a ;>erfect parentage in Paradise, and
Jehovah Lteathed into my nostrils the
breath of life. I am a son of God.” O
man, believing in a half and half Bible, be
lieving in a Bible in spots, where did you
frogt ? Apvwwv:—te+j-an - ucei -
tain: tA rny ancestral lino away back
there wn* un orang oulang and a tadpole
and a polywog. and it took millions of
years t6 get me evoluted.” O man. lie-
lieving in a Bible in spots, whero are you
going to when you quit tliis world?
Answer: “Going into a great to lx?, so
on into tlie great somewhere, and then J
6hall pass through on to the great any
where, and I shall probably arrive in the
nowhere.” That is where I thought
you would fetch up. O, man, l*elieving
in an entire Bible, and believing with ail
our heart, where are vou going to wlieq

you leave this
going to my Father's hou* ,
into the companionship of mt loved ones
wflo liave gone before; I am going to
leave all my sins, and I am going to be
with God and like Go«! forever and for
ever.” Oh, tho glorious certitudes of
orthodoxy!
Bdield the splendors of orthodoxy in
its announcement of two destinies.
Palace and pen: tentiary. Palace with
gates or. nil sides through which all may
enter and live on celestial luxuries
world without end, and all for the knock
ing an* 1 tho askirg. A palace grander
than if all the Ail arnbras and the Ver
sailles and the Windsor castles and the
\\ inter gardens and the imperial abodes
of all tin earth were heaved up into one
architectural glory. At the other end of
the universe a penitentiary, where men
who want their 6i:is can have them.
Would it lx? fair that you and I should
have our choice of Christ and the palace,
and other men be denied their choice of
Bln fcfid eternal degradation? Palace
and penitentiary, Tlie first of no
use unless vou have the last. Brooklyn
and New York would be l>etter places to
live in with Raymond street jail and tlie
Tombs and 8ing Sing, and all tlie small-
jx.x hospitals emptied on them than
heaven would be it there were no hell.
Palace and penitentiary. If I sec a man
with n full bowl of sin, and he thirsts for
it, and his whole nature craves it, and he
takes holdjwith both haiuls and presses
that Ixm I to liis lips, and then presses it
hard between liis teeth, a:xd the draught
begins fi- pour its sweetness down his
throat, ‘ "
and jerk tho man up to tho gate
heaven, and push him in if ho dees not
want to go and sit down and sing psalms
foreytT? God has made you and
me so completely free that we peed not
go to heaven unless we prefer it. Not
more froo to soar than freo to sink.
Nearly all the heterodox people I
know believe all ore coming out at the
same destiny; without regard to faith or
character wo are all cooling out at the
shining gate. Thero they are, all in
glory together. Thomas Paine and
George Whitefield, Jezebel and Mary
Lyon, Nero and diaries Wesley, Charles
Gurtteau and James A. Garfield, John
Wilkes Bt>oth and Abraham Lincoln—all
in glory together! All the innocent
men, women and children who were
massacred, ride by side with their mur
derers. If we are all coming out at the
same destiny, without regard to cliarac-
ter, then it is true. I turn away from
inandmonts: and then after a while you
will vako up in a fountainkss, rockless,
treeless desert swept of everlasting sirocco.
If you are laughed at you cau afford to
be laughed at for standing by the Bible
just as God has given it to vau ard mi
raculously preserved it.
Do not ju;up overboard from the
stanch old Great Eastern of old fashioned
orthodoxy until there is something ready
to taka you uf stronge.* tl rn the. fan
tastic yawl wh ch has pain.od on't;ie
side “Advr.need Thought,” and which
leaks at the prow and leaks nt tho stern
and has a steel pen for one oar and £
glib tongue for tho other oar, and now
tif>s over th’13 way and then tips over
that way. until you do rot know whether
the passengers will land in the breakers
of despair or on liio sinking sand of infi
delity and atheism.*
I am in lull sympathy with tho ad
vancements of our time, but this world
wijl never advance a single inch beyond
this old liible. God was just as curable
of dictating tlio truth to rite prophets and
apostles as lie is capable of dictating tho
truth to these modern apostles and
prophets. God lias not learned any
thing in a thousand years. Ifo knew
just as much when ho gave tho tlrst dic
tation as lie does now giving tho last dic
tation, if ho is giving any dictation at ail.
So I will stick to tlar old patlis. Naturally
a skeptic and preferring ■ new tilings to
old. I never so much as today felt the
truth of tlie entire liible, especially as I
see into what s[icctncular imbecility men
rush when they try to chop up the Scrip
tures with tho meat ax rtf their own
preferences, notv calling upon philosophy,
now calling on tiio church,’now cak
ing on God, now calling on thj
devil. I prefer the thick, warm robe of
tho oid religion—old as God—the robe
which lias kept so many warm amid the
cold pilgrimage of this life and amid t»o
chills of death. The old rube rather than
too thin, uncertain gauze offered us by
tliese wiseacres who believe tlio liible in
spots.
