The Presbyterians and Evolution.
ArmrsTA, May 29.— The general as
sembly of the Presbyterian church con
cluded its labors to-night after nine days'
session. The report of the committee
on the Sabbath, strongly condemned
the running of railroads and the publish
ing and rending of newspapers on Hun
day, also the sending and receiving of
mail.
The question of Columbia Theological
Seminary was finally settled by the fol
lowing resolution, adopted by a vote of
65 to 27.
Resolved, That whereas tlio general
assembly is convinced that the Itsy.
.Tames Woodrow, I). D., one of the pro
fessors in Columbia Theological Hcmin
ary, holds views repugnant to the Word
of God and to our confession of faith, ns
appears both by bis address published
in the Southern Presbyterian Review
J illy, ISB4, and in other publications, and
by his statements made upon the floor of
this assembly; therefore this geueral as
sembly does hereby, in accordance with
its action yesterday, in regard to the
oversight of the theological seminaries
earnestly recommended to the synods
of South Carolina, Georgia Alabama,
and South Georgia and Florida, which
direct and control said seminary, to dis
miss Rev. James Woodrow as professor
in said semiuary, and to appoint another
in bis place, andspeedly to take such oth
er steps as in their judgment will be best
adapted to restore the seminary to the
confluence of the church.
Atlanta Correspondence.
4ft-N*TA. May 34 1596.
No new scheme with which to startle
the world, bas been originated in Atlan
ta this week. Our base-bull club stands
ut the Lead of the league, to the sstisfac- 1
lion of the sporting pnblic; the lawyers
are awaiting the 7th of June, when
Judge Ron A. Pardee, nf New Orleaus.
comes to Atlanta to hear the argument
on the injunction for the W. k A.
and E. T. V. k G. Railroads against
the Georgia Railroad Commission, and
in the interim are watching th > guberna
torial mud slinging contest; Myxiatt is
earnestly endeavoring to stir np some
interest in congressional matters; the
nuholy and wrathful anti still cuseeth the '
' bonnie blue flag that is to tie raised in
Atlanta over 200 empty saloons on tho
first of July; prohibitonista era smil
ingly bat somewhat expectantly wait
| ing. Indeed everything und everybody
1 seem to be waiting. That seems to be
’ the trouble with the prohibition ques
t lion. Too many people are waiting to
t see what will be the result. If they
' wait too long/prohibition may yet work
an evil. But it cannot be so. Although
4 this Is the dullest season of the year,
1 business men ssy that trade is good,
r lint a steady trade will cot save Atlanta.
Hhe must progress, and after a few
. months, when men conclude that it is
1 useless to wait looger, she will progress.
* The moral progress of the, next century
.1 bangs in the balance over the capital
- city of Georgia. Prohibition, as elected
b by tho masf.es, must ho snstained by the
masses or it will receive a blow which
.1 no living man will ever see it outgrow,
j What will be the result?
y Judge Daniel Pittman, former Ordina
ry of Fulton county, dropped dead on
. Whitehall street last Hnnday. He was
an old and highly respected citizen, and
as printer, lawyer, soldier and Judge,
. always sustained a reputation for honor,

From Long Pond.
Farmers in this section nro taking ad
j vantage of the dry weather to conquer
, General Green, and most of them have
succeeded. Cetton is looking well not
' withstanding the ground was dry at the
I time it was coming up. Tho Long Pond
f Agricultural Club met hero on tho sth.
We are sorry to see so few tnke un iu
j terest in Ibis important feature of civ
ilization. Agriculture is the back bone
of Georgia, especially of Montgomery
county. The principal portion of the
timber near tbo banks of the Oconee
has been cut aud shipped to market,
aDd ns a necessity the people have
tnrned more to farming.
For a good many years the tide of
emigration was to get beyond the Rocky
Mountains, but now, weary of the long
bleak winters and the cold red-clay bills,
it bas turned south again, to enjoy the
bright sun mid balmy breezes of the
south sido of the monutniu, aud as for
ns we have been able to see, the majorit y
of those who come from tho upper coun
ties of Georgia, are hard working iudtis
trous and energetic people. They are
poor and are not afraid to work, nud have
been accustomed principally to farming.
Tho dawn of a brighter day for the
southern portion of Georgia is upon ns,
if wo will awuko to tho fact, ntid give
them a showing. Why not all come out
and join the Club; every man mid boy
who is old enough to plow ought to be
long to nn Agricultural Chit). Let us
'stir the eoals nnd start the blaze again,
of the fire that was kindled a few years
ago, but allowed to burn down ? We sen
the good effects, the improvement made
in farming. Now a little exertion, a little
fuel, and the fire will blaze higher, and
burn brighter than before.
Mr. Duncan Mcßride, of Florida, Ims
been visitiug relatives nud friends in thi s
community, lie was formerly of this
county but moved to Valencia Fla., soon
after the war, where lie has remained
since. He is one of those veterans who,
by a long life of energy nnd industry is
now guttering the fruits of his labor,
spending the evening of life in his
beautiful Florida home, with his child
ren married aud settled around him. Ho
was loved by aU who know him before
he left here, so it was u great pleasure
to have him in our midst again.
Miss Amanda Morrison has returned
from a lengthy visit to relatives iu Flor
ida. She is ns entertaining as ever, nnd
we are glad to bnve the vacancy iu the
social circle, caused by her nbsenoe,
again refilled.
Mr. Willie MoArthnr of the firm of
Willie T. McArthur A Son, is a hand
some young man. He loves to visit the
“White House,” aud we don't blama
him, for the “White Hoase” is a pretty
cage with pretty birds in it.
Yours truly, A. M.

From Red Bluff.
Freemau Outlaw, colored, had his
house aud everything in it burned a 1
few days ago.
Mr. Charles Bengnot has moved his j
family to Red Bluff. He has one of the j
pleasau test-and most interesting families
I have ever met, aud although they may
not make this country their home dur
ing futnre life I am snre the people of >
Montgomery would be glad to know they
would, aud will extend to them a hearty
welcome.
Mr. J. J. Spivey left Red Bluff Thurs
day for Laurens, to spend a few days
with bis parents, nud recruit bis health.
I>r. Morrison of Mt. Vernon spent a ,
few hours with us last Friday, (
Col. loud is epeudiug a few days at l
the mill. ,
There * s a good deal of sickness in this
part of the county.
We hear that Arthur Davis Sr., is
very sick. He is cue of the oldest men «
in the county, being about 90 years old,
and hitherto has beeu uuusually stoat '
and healthy. Hope to bear of his i
speody recovery. —W. — 1
A Eorr Journalist.
George Prentice, while editor cl the
1 Louisville Journal, wasofteu importuned 1
l<v college men who panted for a cbauce |
to seud a quiver through the great read- j
'■ | iug world. A graduate named Edwards
' | was so fortunate as tosecureu trial on the
’ Journal. He was a modest young man, !
aud did Dot claim that he could, the first
1 week, take quite all tbe work off Mr.
1 Prentice’s bands, but be knew that, after
' tbe first month he could take the place j
• of the chief editor and discharge bis
• duties in away that would render the
' reuders oblivions tho change. The j
• great journalist bad, by a very dear
• friend, beeu recommended to Prentice, \
f consequently the editor was anxious that j
• afternoon of the third day, Edwards
• went into Prentice’s room, and with an !
3 air of self-confidence, began to boast of l
1 his acquirements.
• “There is a great, deal in the newspaper
business after all,” said he.
Mr. Prentice agreed that there was a
1 great deal in the newspaper business as-
B tor nil.
• “Yes, sir,” Edwards continued,
• “when I was at school I used to tbiuk
’ that a man could learu all about tbe
whole thing iu a day or two, but be can’t
doit. I think, though, that some men
inherit a kind of insight into the journal
istic profession, don’t you’”
“It seems so,” Mr. Prentice replied.
“Yes,” Edwards resumed, “some men
r have a natural facility for foiming tbe
opinions of others; aud, sir, the bean y
of it is tbe natural product journalist
I forms opinions so skilfully that the muD
who reads it, and, by George, sir, thinks
that he himself formed it.”
“Very often the case, no doubt,” re-
plied Mr. Prentice.
“Now,” Edwards went on, “that’s
wimt I regard as journalism. None of
your slip-shod business about that. I
j *
suppose, Mr. Prentice, you have observed
that I have learned to say things pleas
antly?”
“Yea.”
“That’s one acquisition. Now, what
next would you advise?”
“Learn something to say."
“Why, I—I—” stammered Mr. Ed
wards, “I thought that—"
“No explanations are necessary,” said
Mr. Prentice. Then, turning in his chair
and bestowing a qnizzical look upon the
upstart, the mau whose idlest pen stroke
was sometimes ft gouging pasquinade
said;
"Your foresight ia too eh*in* to enable
you to become a journalist!"
“llow HO?”
“Why, yon see through the wbifle
thing. Yon can look into tho business
of a newspaper like a prophet could
look into the future. This, in the end,
must render the business distasteful to
you. As all strollers will tell you, the
most pleasant road to traverse is the one
that offers the largest number of sur
prises—ft glimpse of shining water, a
moment's view of rich landscape. There
fore I would advise you to giva np the
newspaper business, for it will undoubt
edly become distasteful, like a monoto
nous path too often gone over. I know
that it would boa struggle tear your
self away nbw, but you should make the
sacrifice. You owe it yenr father, your
mother, your creditors.”
“I know there is much truth in what
you say. Mr. Prentice, but I have given
so much thought to this business, that
now to throw it away and engagoin some
thing else wonld be changing the course
of a life—would be like changing the
ohauuel of a mighty river."
Edwards smote iiis troubled breast,
lifted up his moustache, put a finger on
each sido of his month, aud missed tue
spittoon about six inches'
"I foresee the struggle,” said Mr. Freu
tico; “but because a struggle is foreseen
is no reason why it should be averted.
Life is a struggle,”
“But, Mr Prentice, what would you
advise mo to do?”
“Your foresight prompts me to suggest
the advisability of miming a govern
ment. I don't know anything about tbe
chances for getting tbatkindof situation
at present, but I do know that you could
do up the work to tho delight of the
queen and to the taste of tbe entire royal
household. Let me see. How are yon
in Greek?”
“First rate."
“Probably yon might get ft situation
1 as a writer of circus posters.”
“I wouldn't like that."
“No? Well, bow wonld you like to float
i down the river on a raft, spending your !
spare tnornen ts in tbe study of curreut
navigation, sand bnuk philosophy, aud
the wholesome casuistry of ferrymen who j
charged double price when the water was
low, because it is low, and double price
when tbe water is high, because it is
high?"
"You are making fun of me."
“Oh. no; quite impossible. I cannot
make anything of you. Here, Bill," |
calling a porter, “let in the other gradu
ate and we'll give him a turn."— Arkm.
sate Tmueler.
