tooned and decorated, by die hand ; of
fair lad.es in the mo t tasteful and ie
cherche style,
MinjjUtrg ioßwith the vine,
Mailing cedar with the pine,
rending the whole scenic and sylvan
like; a fitting retreat for the little fai
n- sos the school. Large as is the
Hull, it was filled to overflowing by one
of the most elegant and appreciative
assemblages, it lms been my pleasu.e
(c meet for many yeius. As I gazed
upon the multitude, I could but note
the evidences of intellect and c iture
m -clear!, depicted iu the faces of tlwt
ilit.ffiested auditory. Good ord r aad
strict propriety ruled the hour.
The exercise opened by reading a
lesson from God’s Holy \\ ord, and by
prayer, followed by music by the uni
ted choirs of the different churches,
accompanied by the fine new OFgan,
belonging to this church, presided over
by Miss Annie H , whose skillful
touch evoked the sweetest melody,
which, beautifully accorded with the
voices of the singers, filled the Hull
with praises to God, in ‘•hymns and
spiritual songs.” Long m y they live
to sing His praises hero, and hereafter,
More Hi* throne, join in the great an
them of everlasting love and glory to
Him who died for us.
It would require an article too long
to enter into the minutire of the beau
tiful groups and arrangements of the
classes, and must con to at myself with
a reference to the general programme.
The speaking by the young masters
of she school was most excellent, evinc
ing careful training, while the subject
matter was really good and entertain
ing; these young men can, by proper
application, become line speakers on
the rostrum. All the exercises were
well rendered, better than is usual at
similar entertainments. One noticea
ble improvement was apparent though
ozit the evening, and I commend it to
the attention of all superintendents,
both of oabb.itli and Lay schools. I
allude to the distinctness of pronuncia
tion: oven the smallest children could
bo heard plainly over the whole room;
thereby greatly enhancing the enjoy
ment of. the occasion, and reflecting
credit on the superintendent and teach
ers for their energy and good sense in
exacting a perfect enunciation. No
matteif how beautiful the poem, or
how chaste the prose may be, if their
rendition cannot be heard by the audi
ence, it loses its beauty and effect. It
would be well -for all teaehers to follow
this example; often in tue examination
of the pupils of schools of high ckarac-;
ter, the under-tone and indistinctness
of utterance in which ricitations are |
given, destroy the pleasure of the lis- |
t c!wni, and rob themselves of the meed j
of praise duo to perfect lessons and |
well written compositions.
Tho platform and rostrum were well i
arranged; in front the speakers and
groups of eliil Iren presented them
rel yes as they were called out by the su
perintendent; in the back-ground were
the choir and organ, while a festooned
nr h, artistically decorated, bearing
the beautiful words of our Saviour, ‘Suf
fer little children to come unto me,”
l.kc a rainbow, spanned the stage.—
How appropriate were these wolds;
here was a large number of children,
and above their heads and happy faces
was the endorsement of the Sou of
God. Yes, let them come and be
taught the way of eternal life —Christ
says so—who dare object? To whom
do we look, and who are to fill up the
ranks of the church, but the present
children 1 What id the experience of
the last thirty years in regard to
this? That half the members of all
the churches arc made up of Sabbath
School children; nurselings of the

way of Christ, most apt to offer them

not t>£ ignored, and mini ters of most
deneiuiaatipus are alive to the interests
of such se’nVols connected with their
churches. Christ says “Suffer Little
Children to pome unto Me.” Let us
reply “Yea, Lord; we w ill do all in otir
power to bring them unto Thee..”
It would be h possible hi an article
like this to ootoruent on all that struck
me as being very beautiful and appro
priate—the recitations, songs, repeat
ing scripture, Ac., Out I cannot refrain
from particularly noticing two of the
wji unique and splendid tableaux vi

1- lining the presentation of this scene
after a proper explanation of its virtue*
the maiden on the right turned her

jas each in order turned her staff, the
• 1 gohhu words, Love, Joy, Faith*
! Meekness, Gentleness Ac., were pre
| sen ted. T’lisr score produced the most
i pleasing effect on the assemblage, and
was received with applause.
Tableau 2d was a jewel in its way;
it was composed of eleven smaller chil
dren, the least at each end, and the
largest in the centre, thus simulating
tin arch. Each bore suspended from
the neck, a pure white card, on which
was a single letter of large size. The
first iu position wore the letter F, the
next two an E each, the fourth a D,
making the word Feed; the next M,
the next Y, and so on, till the sen
tence ‘Feel My Lambs’ was presented
to us. It had a fine effect, heightened
as it was, by the sweet little song they
sting, supported again by the organ
and choir. There those innocents
stood before us, bearing the command
of Jesus, to feed his lambs. Oh! who
shall withhold from them the require
ments of our Savior. I had rather be
their Superintendent and teachers than
the Ciosars, Alexanders or Napoleons
of their respective ages.
Mr. John A E rwin, the superinten
dent, has had the oversight of this
School for the last two or three years,
and under his management it has at
tained to its present high and progres
sive position. His success as an offi
cer grows out of the fact that he is
keenly alive to the welfare of the
young, he wishes them instructed iu
the way of eternal life, that they may
be brought to Jesus. lie believes the
welfare of society depends upon the
proper training of the youth of the
land; hence he employs his well known
energy and kindness of heart in direct
ing them in the paths of virtue and re
ligion. Mr. Erwin is a man of action;
he carries it into his Christian duties
as well as into his daily business. Ac
tion is his governing temperament.
This, with his administrative qualities,
eminently tit him for his position in
the Sabbath School. He is sustained
iu his noble efforts by a corps of able
teachers, both ladies and gentlemen,
who unite with him in this labor of
I love and duty: it is no wonder, there
i tore, that under the blessing of God,
j and their unceasing efforts, this school
; lias reached its high state of prosperi
ty. May God bless them, and bestow
on them his meed of approval here,
| and at last His “Well doue, good Quid
! faithful servants, enter ye into the joys
of your Lord.”
The entertainment by the school
having elided, the superintendent an
nounced the speakers for the occasion,
Hon. Judge Parrott, and Dr. Felton,
names well known not ouly at home,
but abroad. The speeches of these
gentlemen were able and appropriate.
The Judge testified to the pleasure he
had felt in witnessing the exercises;
commended the institution highly, was
happy in seeing his neighbors’ chil
dren and his own instructed iu the
paths of religion, and its kindred vir
tues. 'He feelingly touched upon a
subject dear to the heart of every pa
rent —the welfare of their children;
that they should be brought up prop
erly, well instructed in till that w mid
gi /e them character, and tit them for |
honorable and useful lives; that they ;
should live for good purposes, and j
that it was highly necessary that when I
young, their character should be |
moulded to conform to ail that is good,
noble and honorable, we lived again
in our children, and >ve rejoiced when
their young lives gave ft guarantee of
fixture usefulness and unblemished
character. He gave the children a
lesson of advice; tueh as a father wol’d j
to his own offspring, upon the subject
of habit; and be also very truly
affirmed that we are creatures of habit,
and how fearful it is to fasten upon
ourselves a bad one; he depicted the
sad consequences of such habits; charg
ed ns that we are responsible for them,
and compared them to an iron yoke
around our necks, which are riveted
by our hands at each successive fall.—
He warned them not to enslave them
selves, and allow collars and manacles
to be forged by their own hands for
their own destruction; but commended
them to folic w the paths of truth, of
temperance and religion, and encour
aged them to walk the way of the up
right; and, pointing to the words of
our redeemer, “Suffer little children”
Ac., urged them to yield to the invita
tion now, in the morning of their lives
| that they might grow up in Him and
I in ail that is ennobling and good, and
so prepare to take the places of those
who must soon pass away. At times
i the speaker was visibly affected; glxow-
I ing that the depth of his heart was
! stirred up in contemplation of the im
portant subject before him. I was
pleased to hoa* - (he Judge thus present
1 the benefits of Sabbath Schools, and
;so earnest y. and eloquently impress
upon fly: uhßjds of the youth the impor
tanee of early and religious training.—
1 learn he is a teacher in the school,
and hope that many of our leading
men in all parts of the State will go
and do likewise. , . Va-.!
The Judge having taken his scat,
Dr. Felton arcse. saying he did not
propose to detain the audience, he
con'd not aid to the interest of the
preceeding remarks of Judge Parrott;
that he was there more for the busi
ness part of the programme than to
make a speech; he could not, however,
refrain from expressing his approval
and delight at the exquisite entertain
ment he had witnessed; he felt a live
ly interest in the Sabbath Schools of
the land; they were productive of
much good; lessons learned in these
Schools will never be effaced from the
minds of those children; here they are
trained in the way they should go and
when old will be governed by then
teachings; he was in favor of educa
ting the young mind to bring them up
in the fear and admonition of the Lord,
and by teaching the precepts of His
Holy word, fortify them against the
temptations, and strengthen them for
the duties of life. Tlie Scripture is
the Palladium of all human rights, it
is the law of God to man. He was
pained to know that efforts liatl been
made to exclude the Bible from the
common schools in some of the North
western cities; he deprecated such a
course, and thanked God that a Judge
had decided the question in favor of
the scriptures. We must look to it
that this blessed volume should not
be tz ken from our schools. There is
one school, however, where there is no
danger of losing the Word of God,
that is the Sabbath School, here it is
fostered, here it is safe !*
He paid a beautiful and merited trib
ute to the memory of William Tyn
dale, who, centuries ago, translated
the Bible into the English language,
■and verified his promise to a priest
that if God spared his life, he would
cause the boy at his plow to know
more of the Scriptures, than the Pope
of Rome. He fulfilled this promise;
the Bible wa's scattered all over Eng
land, bless God ! It will soon be the
book which will be read by all the na
tions and people of the earth, It is a
light that cannot be hid !
At the conclusion of his remarks he
appealed to the spectators for aid to
carry out more fully the good work b} -
the purchase of good and suitable
bocki; he asked for $75 00, which
amount was quickly made up; after
the collection, he made the pleasing
announcement that Mr. W. A. Ransom,
Esq., N. Y., Boot and Shoe dealer, had
made to the School a donation of fifty
dollars’ worth of Bibles aad Testa
ments, accompanied with the earnest
hope that the School might be abun
dantly blessed, and be the means of do
ing much good for the cause of our
Heavenly Master. This valuable offer
ing was received with much applause,
and ho will be gratefully remembered
for many long years by the children of
this School, and may they hereafter
meet in the Heavenly laud, and togeth
er, praise Him for ever and ever.
Thus closed oi«3 of the most inter
esting Sabbath School entertainments
i I ever, witnessed. I felt that I was for
| tunate in being a spectator, and shall
consider myself happy if I may be
equally favored on a future occasion.

ftafOwing to the mild, conservative
tone of our paper, in matters pertain
ing to the politics of the present day,
we are sometimes accused of pander
ing to the views of the party in power,
with the view, we suppose, of currying
their favor and thereby getting a draw
at the public pap. Be that as it may,
if the court knows himself, (and he
thinkt he does;) his efforts thus far
have proven abortive, for we have nev
er yet been permitted to make out a
bill against the Executive to be drawn
out of either the printing or contin
gent fund, or any other depository of
State finances. We might, however,
have succeeded better had we resorted
to the abuse of those who control the
public finances, and thereby obtain id
a little ‘‘hush money.” But such Ims
not been oiu* piogramme. We are by
birth a Georgian, and have al
ways been, and am still, identified with
her interests. We have been, first and
l ist, publishing a Democratic paper in
first Cass but now’ Bartow county, near
twelve years. We-stalled out in life a
democrat in politics, and expect to
continue tme to the end of the chap
ter, or until the issues incorporated in
the principles of the party are changed
or swallowed up by some like great
conservative party. We have not been
as bitter in our denunciations of the
principles of opposing parties as, per
haps, some of our brethren think we
should have been, in order to have re
tained our fellowship unimpaired in
their ranks, but being always conserva
tive in our feelings and views, we never
could got our consent to do violence
to both and become ail extremist.—
Extremists, in political matters, are
generally wrong, and, doubtless, to thin
cause, move than any other, may be
attributed the reason of Georgia’s pre
sent dismemberment from the Union.
We advocated and voted for secession,
but did not drink seas of, nor wade to
our arm-pits in, blood, in advance of
the war,' to accomplish it, although we
stood to our faith by enlisting early
and remaining at our post until the
memorable 12th of April. 18G5, w ben,
with scores of our fellow-comrades,
with parols in our pockets, we set out
from Appomattox Court-House, Va.,
for our homes in Georgia. We then
accepted the situation, not of choice,
but from force of circumctances that
surrounded U3. We came home to
submit to the same humiliation, bear
the same burdens, and endure the same
hardships, as those for whom we pray
ed and by whom we stood, during the
fearful struggle. With them we ex
pect to share the remainder of life’s
joys and sorrows.

BEAUTIFUL WOMEN.
All women know that it is beauty, rather than genius,
which all generations of men have worshipped In the
sex. Can It be wondered at, then, that so much of
woman's time and attention should be directed to the
mean* of developing and preserving that beauty !
Womex know, too, that when men speak of the intel
lect of w Jtnen, they speak critically, tamely, coolly
but when they come to speak of the charms of a beau-
tiful womaD, their language and their eyes kindle
with an enthusiasm which shows them to be profound
ly, if not, indeed, ridiculously in earnest It is part
of the natural sagaci y of women to perceive all this,
and therefore employ every allowable art to become
the goddes* of that adoration. Preach to the con
tiary, as we may, against the arts employed by wo
men for enhancing their beauty, there still sta .ds the
eternal fact, that the world does not prefer the soci
ety of an ugly woman of genius to that, of a beauty
of less intellectual acquirements. The world bus yet
allowed no higher mission to women than to be beau
tiful, and it would seem that the ladies of the pres
ent age are carrying this Idea of the world to greater
extremes than ever, for all womeu now to whom na
ture has denied the talismitnlc power of beauty, sup
ply the deficiency by the use of a most delightful tuij
et article, known as the ‘‘Bloom of Youth,” which ha g
been lately introduced into this country by GEORGE
W. Laird, a delicate Leautifier, which smooths out
all Indentations, furrows, soars, temovlrgtan, freck
les, and dUeolorations from the skin, leaving the com
plexion clear, brilliant, and beautiful, the skin soft
and smooth. With the assistance of this new Ameri
can trick of a Lady's toilot, female beauty is destined
to plsy a larger part in the admiration of men and
the ambition of women than all the arts employed
since her creation. Prof. C. F. Chandler, Chemist
to the Metropolitan Board of Health, has recently
prepared a chemical analysts of this delightful toilet
preparation,and reported that the “Bloom of Yeuth”
was harmless, containing nothing injurious to the
health. . Ladies need have no fear of using this lnval
able toilet acquisition.

For all the purposes of • Laxative
Medicine.
a. Perhaps no one medl
cine is so universally
required by every-
JW body as a cathartic,
nor was ever any be
fore so universally
■ ami adopted into use, in
1 i\ «i3of every country and
"wM among all classes, as
V ff this mild but efficient
purgative Vill. The
frMißrtCT 1 ‘ obvious reason is,
thatitisamore rclia
bio and far more ef
fectual remedy than any other. Those who have
tried it, know that it cured them; those who have I
not, know that it cures their neighbors and friends;
and all know that what it does once it does al
ways that it never fails through any fault or neg
glectof its composition. We have thousands upon
thousands of certificates of their remarkable cure*
of the following complaints, but such cures are
known in every neighborhood, and we need not
publish them. Adapted to all ages and conditions
in all climates; containing neither calomel nor any
deleterious drug, they may be taken with safety
by anybody. Tneir sugar-coating preserves them
ever fresh,and makes them pleasant to take, while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise from
their use in any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on the
internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate
it into healthy action—remove the obstructions
of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of
the body, restoring their irregular action to health,
and by correcting, wherever they exist, such de
rangements as are the first origin of disease.
Minute directions aro given in the wrapper on
the box, for the following complaints, which these
Vill* rapidly cure:
For Dyipspnia or Indigestion, Listless
ness, Languor and Loss of Appetite, they
should be taken moderately to stimulate the stom
ach, and restore its healthy tone and action.
For Liver Complaint and its various symp
toms, Jiilione Headache, Sick Head
ache, Jaundice or Green Sickness, Dil
lons Colic aud Dillons Fevers, they should
be judiciously taken for each case, to correct the
diseased action or remove the obstructions which
cause it.
For Dysentery or Diarrhoea, but orie
mild dose is generally required.
For Dheumatiam, Gout, Gravel, Pal-
Tltation of the Heart, Pain in the
ide, Dack and Loins, they should be contin
uously taken, as required, to change the diseased
action of tho system. With such change those
complaints disappear. %
For Dropsy and Dropsical Swellings
they should be taken in large and frequent doses
to produce the effect of a drastic purge.
For (Suppression a large dose should be
taken as it produces the desired effect by sym>
patliy.
Asa Dinner Pill , take one or two Pill* to
promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, restores the appetite,
and invigorates the sv:‘“m. Hence it is often ad
vantageous where n- -erio - dor ti.ve.ri'ent exists.
One who feels tole ably w ... oiloa finds tnat a
dose of these Pill * nakes t;m foci decidedly bet
ter, from their clean *ng and renovating effect on
the digestive apparatus.
