Toe Columbus Enquirer has the fol
lowing:
Is a Bed op Blood.—About six miles
westofHatchecbubbee, at a little place
called Udiee, lived a respectable and
well-to-do farmer, Mr. J. P. Walker. He
bad a very interesting family around him,
and for their benefit, decided he would go
out to the fertile lauds of the West. Ac
cordingly he sold most of his property, ex
cept that which could be conveniently
trausported by rail. He decided to let
three ot his sons travel through the coun
try by private conveyance, and wheu
they had found a desirable locality they
were to let liim know, and he and his
family would come on by railway.
This arrangement having been made,
about two weeks ago Wilbume A.
Walker, aged .25 years, Thomas Walker,
aged 19, and Alonzo R. _ Walker,
aged 15 years, started on the trip. Now
comes tbe sad part of tbe story, and as A
tale of blood it is tbe most horrible that
we have chronicled. for years, and one
that almost makes the blood curdle to
contemplate. The young men had pro
ceeded on their Journey until they reach
ed Mississippi. In the meantime a stran
ger found favor with them and bad join
ed the party as a traveling companion,
fle had traveled with them two days
when on Saturday they passed through
Aberdeeu, and in talking with the citi
zen* told them where they were from and
’uat they were on their way to Arkansas.
Passing through the town the party went
about three miles beyondj where thej
bank on the Sib day of January, 1881, and
that this dividend was not from the net
profits arising out of tbe business of the
bank.
The accused parties were afterwards
balled In the sum of $2,500 each.

mention of which has been heretofore
made in our telegrams:
On the morning of tbe 24th rest., Mr. J.
M. Clewis, a well-to-do young farmer, liv
ing lour miles south of Boston, left bis
home to go to his mother’s, some tulles
away, to put up a sugar mill, where he was
detained until late in the afternoon. Re
turning home about 5 o’clock, he went
Into his house expecting to meet the hip
py little family whom he bad left only
eight hours before, but to Ills great con
sternation he beheld his wife, a lady of
twenty-three, and bis only cliild, a little
girl, two years and six months old, lying
side by side on tbe floor of their bed-room
writhing and gasping for breath, while
their pure, innocent blood rau freely from
gbatsly wounds on their beads. Messen
gers were scut at once for medical aid and
Ora. M. R. Mallette and J. T. Culpepper
responded promptly, arriving at tbe house
a little after 0 o’clock. They found the
lady and child both in a dying condition
from the wounds received on the head,and
though they employed eveiy means possi
ble to bring about a reaction, they had
both ceased to breathe and were dead at
8:30. The wounds were Irom two to
three aud a half Inches 1b length and were
made with the eye of a common club axe,
which was found lying at the bac-t door
where the assassin made his exit. After
doing his fiendish work on tbe woman and
child he turned to the opposite side of the
room and with the edge of the axo cu
open the dcor of a wardrobe, having the
blood on the cut surface from the axe; he
then broke iu tbe sides of two trunks, evi
dently for the purpose of robbery, but
nothing was missed, though one of the
trunks contained about $fl0 that was
wrapped In a piece ot paper, which doubt

We find tbe following in the Atlanta
Post-Appeal:
Genuine astonishment pervaded the
aty lato yesterday evenlBg, when it te
am# known that the grand Jury bad
bund indictments against Perlno Brown,
William H. Patterson, L. G. Jones, B. U.
3rew, William C. Morrill, John Stephens
ind Henry Leonard. Mr. Brown is la
beled as president and director, and the
libera are Indicted as directors of the Cit-
zens’ Bank of Georgia. The first indict
ment is founded on a section of the code
which says, “Every insolvency of a char-
*red bank stall be deemed fraudulent,
ind the prealdent and directors may be
lererallv indicted for a misdemeanor, and
sn conviction shall be punished
bv Imprisonment and labor In the peniten
tiary for any fine not leas than one
year nor longer than ten. The allegations
In this bill are that the Citizen^ Bank,
chartered by the Legislature of Georgia,
was insolvent and that the gentlemen
named were president and directors dur
ing iu Insolvency. The second indictr
mentis bssed upon tbe sectlon oftbe
code which says: “No dividends shall be
msdebyany bank except from tbe not
proflu arising from tbe biuiness of the
corporation; and it any president and di
rectors shall declare or pay over any divi
dend from the capital stock or any other
funds of the bank, except the net profits
thereof, such president and directors snail
be severally guilty of a misdemeanor, and
ou conviction be punished by imprison-
medt in the penitentiary from four to ten
years.” ThU indictment charges that the
directors named did declare a aicldcnd of
taken *t once ti? ferret out the mysterious
outrage.
A negro named Andrew Rogers was
afterwards arrested as the perpetrator
and is now in jail at Valdosta.
We find tbe additional criminal record
in the Enterprise l
Adam Zeiolbb’s Chime its
Summabt Punishment.—Mr. Robert
Maxwell, living near Cairo, had in h!s
employ a colored man named Adam Zelg-
ler, who was raised by his father-in-law,
Mr. John G. Tyoi, and regarded as a
fslthful old family servant. Saturday
night, the 19th Inst., while tbe family
were busily engaged with visitors in the
back part of the bouse, Adam called a
little daughter of Mr. Maxwell’s, batween
eight and nine years of age, to come out
to"l he front gate and hold a light for him.
When she reached the gate he carried her
off and gratified his hellish lusts. Tbe lit
tle girl informed her mother of the crime
that night, but on account of the
visitors and for fear of some rash
act on her husband’s part, Mrs. Maxwell
did not inform him of the occurrence un
til Sunday night or Monday morning. In
company with his brother-in-law, Mr.
Tyus, Mr, Maxwell went to Adam’s
house, taking with him a double barrel
gun,one barrel loaded with small shot
and the other with buckshot. He in
formed Adam that they had come to pun
ish him for the crime. Adam started off
at a run, when Mr. Maxwell called to
him to stop and then fired the barrel
loaded with small shot at him. As this
failed to stop him, be next fired tbe other
barrel, the shot struck and inflicted
wounds from which be died. Before bis
death he acknowledged that be was guilty
of tbe crime charged, and that he bad
committed other crimes of a similar char
acter, and deserved tbe death which had
overtaken him.
Mb. E. A. Cuttiff, a well known and
popular citizen of Albany, died a few days
since.
The Albany News has tbe following
account of a crime that deserves the speed
iest and severest punishment:
Monday last Capt. Dick Westbrook,
our marshal, received a telegram which
read thus:
Dawson, Georgia, November 28.—Look
out for and arrest John E, Moreland, J.
W. Beverly, and T. D. Kennedy, of this
county, charged with murder.
J. ILGaibrt,
A News and Advertiser man happened
to see the dispatch, and, through tbe en
tire day, endeavored to ascertain what It
meant. It smacked of a sensation, but,
notwithstanding industrious inquiry, we
could not arrive at any reason why John
E. Moreland, J.W. Beverly and T. D.
Kennedy should be wanted, until yester
day morning, when .we learned further
particulars from an Albany gentleman,
who had just returned from Dawson.
The gentleman’s statement was the
substance of the town talk at Dawson,
and we therefore judge it is correct as
to facts. It seems that a week ago John
E. Moreland went to Dawson, got drunk,
and late at night bad a fight on tbe dark
streets of that town with some one, in
which he was considerably worsted. The
darkness of the night and his drunken
condition prevented any recognition of
his antagonist, but in the melee be lest
hi* bat. Returning to Dawson last
Thursday he found that article of bis
wardrobe upon tbe head of a negro
named Mark, whose surname we could
not ascertain but who was a bar-tender
Iu the establishment of a man by tbe
name of Sharpe. Moreland at once sup-
posed tbe negro to be the one with whom
he had indulged in tbe midnight fisticuff,
and gathered s number of friends to
assist him in wreaking his revenge.
Beverly and Kennedy were two of the
number. These two took tbe negro be
tween them and marchod him out of
town. Beverly being a bailiff, tbe citi
zens who were spectators to the scene
thought it was a legal arrest of Mark, and
paid no attention to it. The poor fe.low
was taken to Chickasawbatebie swamp.
Soon tbe next day his clothes were found,
search was continued and our latest in
formation is that tbe body was found
Monday iu a terribly mutilated and de
composed state, showing that the wretch
had been beaten to death and thrown into
tbe water.
Our Manufactures.—Under this
bead tbe Augusta Chronicle says:
Augusta has an abiding faith In her
manufactories, despite Mr. Edward Atkin

The Columbus Enquirer has tbe fol-
fowing details of a tragedy which bas been
briefly noted in our telegrams:
The citizens of Whitesville, Harris
county, were filled with horror, Tuesday
night, to witness the most horrible burn
ing that has ever occurred In that vicinity.
About 12 o’clock at night Dr. L. C. Nor
wood discovered that his house was on
fire. He jumped from his bed and rushed
to the hall, when he discovered a light up
stairs. He thought the fire originated
tliere and he could take a bucket ot water
and extinguish it. He took tbe bucket
and ran up tbe stairway for this purpose.
After he had reached the top he went to
another part, but to find, alas! too late,
that he was mistaken, and made a start
to retrace his steps. As he did so the
flames bursted out upon him, and with a
crash he was precipitated intothe burning
room below. The fire came from tbe
room below and had undermined the
second floor, of which fact he was not
aware. He perished almost instantly
and was burned entirely to ashesj not so
much as the charred bones remaining to
tell that lm had ever had an existence.
The house was a large two-story building
and was one of the best in the town. It
was well furnished, and we are told that a
large sum of money was in the bouse, all
of which was a total loss. Dr. Norwood
was a practicing physician and was doing
well in his profession. He wasamauof
means and bad considerable influence in
his section. He was about forty-fiveyeara
of age and began the practice of medicine
in 1871. When the war broke out be
tween the States he waa among the first
to answer his country’s call, and com
manded tbe first company that left the
county. It did gallant service iu the
Twentieth Georgia Regiment. He leaves
a widow, a large circle of family relations
and a host a friends who mourn his un
timely loss.
We find these additional items in the
same paper:
Death of Rev.’ Thos. Murphy.—
Rev. Thomas Murphey died at his resi
dence on upper Oglethorpe street last
night about 10 o’clock, aged about seventy
years. Mr. Murphy was a Baptist preach
er and was well known aud highly re
spected In this section. a
German Carp.—In draining lii^fish
pond last Tuesday Captain Jerry Slade
caught a fine German carp, measuring
twenty tnches in length and twelve and
one-half inches in breadth. Last spring
Captain Slade had all the predaceous fish
taken from his pond in order to give tbe
carp a chance. A short while afterwards
be again bad the pond drained and noth
ing was seen of the carp, which doubtless
had secreted themselves in the mud. The
one referred to was the only one caught,
but there may be more in tbe ditches of
tbe pond. The carp has lived only on
aquatic plants, seeds of the lotus and In
fusoria or the pond. Captain Slade has
had the carp placed in his small breeding
pond, where it can now be seen sluggishly
mov’ng in the clear water. Wheu put iu
the pond last summer it was only two and
one-half inches long.
Tine Hawkinsville Dispatch says the

From tbe LaGrange Jteporter:
Distressing Accident.—Mrs. McKe-
mie, the widow of Rev. W. f. McKemle,
and mother of Prof. W. J. McKemle, of
the West Point public schools, met with
a distressing accident on Monday night
last, which will probably cause her to be
a cripple tbe rest of her -days, if it does not
prove more serious. Mrs. M. is quite old
aud afflicted aud resides with her daugh
ter, Mrs. S. W. Moore, of this place. The
family were at supper and she went to tho
back door in tbelr absence, and, iu at
tempting to descend, missed her footing
and fell down a flight of ten steps.
One of her arms was brokeu in two or
three places, the baud crushed, a great
gasli cut in her forehead, anil she was
otherwise bruised. She bled profusely, and
it was at first feared that she could not sur
vive her injuries. Tbe afterwards rallied
aud recovered consciousness, but her con*
dilion is such as to awakeu serious appre
hensions.
Big Fire.—The residence of Dr. G.
M, While, at White's Hill, seven or eight
miles west of LaGrange and about one
mile beyond tho river, was burned to the
ground on last Friday night. At about
11 o’clock, his son, who was the sole oc
cupant of the house (the family residing
in LaGrange) was awakened by the blaze
ot burning pieces falling In tbe room
where lie wa3 sleeping. It was too late
to do auytbing to allay tbe flames, and
they soon accomplished their destructive
work, laying In ashes one of the best
country mauslons in tbe county. There
was an insurance of $1,500, but the build
ing cost $3,000. It is uot known how the
fire originated, but It is supposed from a
defective flue. It affords another warn-<
lug to all to be careful to look after their
chimneys and stove-pipes. We have not
beard whether Dr. White will rebuild.
On last Tuesday, says the Rome Cou
rier, of Friday, a man calling himself
Rarity, “and saying that be was a ‘trusty’
convict in search of an escaped prisoner,
and that he was from Phillips’ camp on
the Marietta and North Geoargia rail
road, was guilty of a most cowardly
crime. He rode up to tbe residence of
Mr. Buice, near Buchauan, halloaed,
and Mrs. Buice went to the door, when
he made use of rough language in her
presence. Sne said: ‘Tell ine your busi
ness, or leave here.’ He hesitated, and
then site hurried ihto the house, and as
she was closing the door he shot her, the
ball taking effect in her shoulder. After
ward a surgeon cut tbe ball from her left
breast. Her condition is considered very
precarious. Rarity made his escape.”
Two more failures in Atlanta are re-
ported by the Constitution, F. M. Pope

Liabilities not repotted.
The veteran JolinH. Martin, late of
the Columbus press, and one of the oldest
and best known journalists in Georgia,
took editorial charge of the Rome Courier
last Thursday on the following line:
In its politics the Courier will maintain
its position as a steadfast supporter of
Democratic policy and organization. It
is true that there are some measures as to
which we think tbe national Democrat par
ty are not as harmonious and pronounced
as we could wish- they are uot fully agreed
upon the tariff question, and their finan
cial policy is not as distinct as we would
have it— but we are fully aware of the
fact that the Democratic party is the only
one to which we. can reasonably look
for an approximation of our view ou
these questions, and that without co
operation with them we can do
nothiDg to promote them. Wo never
did admire either the pluck or the judg
ment of the historic little bull that butted
against the steam eugine. In our estima
tion his pluck was simply folly, and his
venture as silly as it was disastrous. Men
must co operate, tolerate, and if need be,
compromise as to details, iu order to se
cure any public measure or policy. They
can never secure it by independent indi
vidual action, or by opposing minority
impracticability to the concerted plans of
the majority. Thus believing, we shall
adhere to tbe Democratic party until we
can discern in the political horizon the
rising star of another, bright enough and
strong enough to givo us assurauce that
the principles aud measures which we
deem moat beneficial can be more cer
tainly secured under a change of leader
ship.
From the Dalton Citizen:
Row in a Country Bab Room.—A
fatal affray occurred iu Dade county ono
evening last week. Alexander James,
who runs a saloon at the State line near
Cole City, was shot and killed by a man
named McCombs. Ou the evening in
question quite a crowd gathered in the
saloon, and were drinking and talking. A
quarrel at last ensued between James and
McCombs, tbe latter having a pistol aud
James an axe-handle, which he flourished
in a threatening manner, sayiDg be would
kill McCombs, whereupon the latter fired,
the ball taking effect in James’ knee. He
was but slightly hurt, and made another
onslaught with the axe-handle. McCombs

A Sad Death.—We regret to learn
that a sad affliction befell the family of
our friend aud patron, Mr. M. A. B. Ta
tum, of Dade county, a few days ago.
One of his children, a bright little boy
two years old, left tbe house, as his moth
er thought, to play with the olherchll-
dreu In the yard. Not hearing his prattle
amoLg them, the mother became uneasy
and went out to look after him, and, sad
to relate, she found the little fellow dead.
Near the piazza, aud on a level with it,
was a barrel full ot water, aud his body
was found balanced on the edge of
the barrel and his face in the water, with
life entire exlinctly. It is thought the child
dropped something in the barrel of water,
and in reaching after it lost his balance
and was thus drowned.
Death of Capt. B. C.B. Christian.
—Captain Christian, one of Dalton’s old
landmarks, died suddenly last Tuesday
morning, while sitting in Col. Glenn’s
law office, examining an Insurance book.
He appeared to be enjoying very good
health ou tbe morning of bis death, and
his sudden demise was evidently caused
by some affection of the heart. When
first noticed he was sitting in a chair, bis
eyes closed, aod it was supposed he had
fallen asleep. lie was addressed by some
one, but no answer -being received, an
examination was made, aud it was then
discovered that life bad departed.
Fire at Trenton.—J. A. Case’s barn

He declared they were healthy when he
left home. The preachers were thronging

olherold gentleman came in on horseback
and had several dozen eggs in a bssket.
As he rode Into Broad street bis horse fell
and all the eges were broken. As the om
nibuses came" up Broad street a large
number of chickens in front of a store

We fiud the following in the Atlanta
Constitution:
Yesterday’s Constitution created quite
an excitement in Atlanta. The fact that
the grand jury had returned true bills
against the president, cashier and direc
tors of the late Citizens’ Bank was the
cause, and when it became generally
known that the sheriff was in possession
of warrants for the parties named in the
indictment, tbe excitement only increased.
Everywhere the subject was discussed,
and all conceivable theories as to the re
sult were advanced. Many boldly as
serted that the grand jury had only done
its duty, while others expressed tho be
lief that they bad committed au unpardon
able sin. Some suggested that the indict
ments would be the last of it, while others
said that a vigorous, well-conducted
prosecution would follow. An inquiry at
the. sheriff’s office ascertained that two
warrants—one based npou each indict
ment—bad been Issued against each of
tbe gentlemen, and that every effort was
being made to serve them, but late in tbe
evening it was learned tbat only
two arrests had been made. These were
Mr. W. C. Morrill and Mr. John Stephens,
both of whom gave bond, Mr. Morrill’s
bondsmen being Mr. Joseph Brown, Jr.,
aud Dr. Connally and Mr. Stephens’
bondsmen being Dr. R. D. Spaulding and
Mr. John Morrison. The other gentle
men, however, with two exceptions, were
seen by tbe sheriff and arrangements made
for their bouds. It is understood that
Messrs. James English and West Murphy
will be Mr. Periuo Brown’s bondsmen,
and Mr. R. J. Lowry will be Mr. Crew’s
bondsman. Mr. L. C. Jones is in the city,
and although on the watch for the sheriff
did not see him. Mr. H. C. Leonard is
out of town on business, and in all proba
bility does not know of his trouble. The
amouut of bond required from each gen
tleman is $5,000—$2,500 In each case—
and as there Is no doubt about their abili
ty to secure the bail, no trouble is antici-
pated.

Wednesday evening, when ono mile
from Jonesboro, tbe special exposition
tram from Atlanta was fired upon by some
unknown party, the. bullet entering the
window of a coach,, and barely missing a
gentleman who sal on the seat next to the
window. Mr. G. P. Hodnelt, another
passenger, was in near range of tho bullet
and barely missed being hit also. If tbe
first meulionrd gentleman had been sit
ting upright, most likely be would have
been killed. Luckily, he was leaning
forward a little, aud the bullet went just
back of bis ueck, missing it not more
than an inch, aud burying ifcelf in tbe

Arrival of Btuwlan Befogeca.
On the arrival of tbe train from Savan
nah last night, a committee of oar best
Jewish citizens mot a party of abont thirty
Jews who have been driven from Rasaia by
the bitter persecution of their enemies.
These refugees are a portion of thousands
who are weekly coming into Now York un
der the direotion of a central committee in
that city, who send them in overy direotion
to be taken care of by sub-committees. A
large nnmber of them have been sent to
Georgia, one hnndred and. fifty going to
Atlanta. Among them are tradesmen of
all kinds, tinners, trunk makers, machin
ists, eta, and some aro farmers.
The party which arrived last night woro
qnartered temporarily in the vestry room
of the synagogue, and in a few days situa
tions will be found for all the men. Among
them was one man with five daughters
with their husbands and children. The
men wore tbe long beards so common
among the peasantry of Russia, and aro
dressed in their nativo Kaftans, or long
coats, which somewhat resemble dusters.
They are utterly destitute, having been
robbed of everything they possessed by
Cossack soldiers sent by the Russian gov
ernment to protect them.
Tiiey tell heartrending stories of barbar
ous treatment, and all who are acquainted
with Russian history will find in their state
ment corroboration of tho cruel scenes
therein detailed. For a long iimo this per
secution of Jews has -existed, but it never
took the shape of open rovolt until about
six monts ago. Tbe government appre
ciating this loyalty has endeavored to stay
tho persecution, but tbe hatred of the peo
ple was so intense that the government was
powerless nnless it resorted to force,
which it finally did by sending a lot of Cos
sack soldiers from Asia to protect them.
Instead, however, of protecting them, they
were robbed of everything they bad and
subjected them to every insult and indig
nity that they could invent. Their only
hope then was flight to America, and aided
by the efforts of the central committee in
New York, whose treasury was made am
ple by contributions from Jews the world
over.
Those who arrived last night are from
the town of Kiofl, und ore very intelligent.
They have not yet recovered from the
dread feeling with which they were awed
in their own country. For instance when
told by a gentleman that one of tbe Czar;
was out of tbe way, be immediately threw
his hand to his month and cried “tush”
with a white fuco The gentleman called
his attention to the fact that be was then
in the land cf the free, when the color
came back to kis face and he breathed
easier. “Had yon said that in Russia, you
would have been strung up,” he said.
BalnbrlUge New*.
BsnraanxiK, Nov. 30.—The farmers of
this section, having for the most part har
vested their crops, are busily engaged in
seeking labor for the approaching year^md
are finding it exceedingly difficult to ob
tain. Great numbers of negroes have left
the country to work on tbe new railroads.
The “one horse farmer,” who plants and
tends his orop himself, has not this difficul
ty to contend with. It is the large planters
who feel the scarcity of labor most
The cotton crop of this county, owing to
the better prices obtained and the better
grade of cotton, will yield almost, if not
quite, as much as last season’s crop did.
There is some talk of applying to the
Legislature and having this county taken
from the Albany circuit and placed in the
southern judicial circuit. It is thought by
some that it would be more convenient for
the judge and bar to do it.
There are more colored tax defaulters
this fall than have been known for many a

this is an off year in politics. Elections
help the tax collectors mightily in their
collections down here in this corner of the
State.

our Country Public School#.
Too little is known by the people of the
city about our country public schools, and
the closing of the fall term of several of
them to-day offers an all-fitting opportu
nity to say a few words about them.
The board of education maintains thirty
schools in the eountry districts—fifteen
white and fifteen colored. All of the
schools bavo a spring term beginning about
the 1st of March and closing abont the 1st
of August. In addition to this a fall term
of three months is allowed to each districts
as provide comfortable honses and means
for keeping them warm. This year thir
teen of the white schools availed them-
solves of the fall term. Several of these
close tbeir term to-day; the others having
opened later have a week or two to run.. If
any of our readers in the city have an invi
tation to be present to-day we hope they
will be on hand, for our country friends
will bo sure to take good care of them.
Tho schools that close to-day are Sardis
academy, Rutland district, Wm. Ryder,
principal; Tharpo academy, Warrior dis
trict, S. N. Keiffer, principal; Chambliss
school, Hazzard district, J. A. Donielly,

Old Belle# Exbumed
While the hands of ths new railroad were
excavating yesterday on the bluff iu the
rear of Wood’s factory, they exhumed an
old briok wait about eight feet below the
surface. Tho bricks are largo size, of band
make and in a fine state of preservation.
We learn from several of our oldest citizens
that the bricks were the foundation of a
brick house with a basement which was
built for tbe office of one of the steamboat
wharves in 1635. It was daring tho build
ing of the foundation referred to that one
of our most prominent merchants and hon
ored citizens, the late Charles Cimpbell,
Esq., fell from the wall and had the misfor
tune to have his leg broken by the fall.
After the introduction of the Central rail
road in 1M3, the office waa converted into
_ dwelling and occupied by Roger MoGall,
Esq., the first settler of the vicinity. He
oame to Fort Hawkins in 1818, fonr yoars

Tbe Preacher#
Tbe Selma Times, taking advantage of
the meeting of the Alabama conference of
tbe M. E. Church South in that city, In
dulges in the following reflections:
The preachers have captured Selma,
and Selma is better lor it. We will be
better for tbelr coming among us. It Is a
hardened man who does not feel kindly
towards tbo preachers. They are our
friends. They stand by us; they are al
ways faithful. In our happiest moments
they are with us to rejoice, to laugh, to
be happy, too. When aorrow comes they
are faithful still. With honest old Bill
Aip, we can truly say we like the preach
ers. They hold us back from going to
extremes. They are the conservatives.
They are good citizen* and set us
a good example. They are tbe balance
wheels of society, the scotch to the wagon,
air-brakes to the train, tbe pendulum to
the c'ock. They are like the Sabbath that
gives us rest and peace. They are to soci
ety what the judge is to the law. We love
them all, and when they are blotted oat,
which God forb!d,we want to go too. In
sickness, In trouble, in affliction, yea, in
the last agonies, they are with us and
comfort us, while tbe busy world wags on.
God bless the preachers of this land—the
preachers of every creed that leaches love
for our Creator aud love and kindness for
one another.
We would be in a bad fix without the
preachers. No matter how gloomy we
feel, they can and <will cheer us up.
WLetber a man be a Christian or not, the
preachers caudo him good. They cause
us to look ou the bright side. They show
us a silver lining to every cloud, however
black and threatening it may be. They
lead us in spite of ourselves to live better
lives. They make us better men and wo
men. In shadow and in sunshine they
walk beside us witli unfaltering footsteps,
lead us through the dark places and
laugh wllh us ou joy’s sunny heights.
When death comes, deadening our senses,
robbing us of life, the last man we want
to see is the preacher, God’s appointed
ageDt. He goes with u* down into
the valley and shadow, holds on to onr
hands as we enter the chilling waters that
flow between us and the mystic beyond,
the man of God is with us still, even unto
the time when the watchmen on tbe other
shore receive us. The waters are msde
less chilly, tbe shadows less dark, and we
brave the aDgry flood with stouter hearts
because the good man is near to encourage
us. Ah! yes / God bless the preachers.
They are the truest of friends, the most
generous, the noblest, and tbe most use
ful, and a bad world tbis would be with
out the preachers.
Quaint, good George Herbert said long
ago, and his words have lost none of tbelr
force:
Judge not the preacher, for he is thy judge;
If thou mistike him, thon conceiv’st him
not.
Yes, tho preacher is always with us.
When we come to marry, the preacher is
neatest to us, he gets very near; he kisses
the bride and his congratulations to tbe
happy couple have a truer ring than any
other they receive. He means it. No
jealousy, no envy about the preacher.
He is “heart aud soul for the measure,”
and is just as glad as tbe young people
whom he joins together for better or for
worse—and he always prays that it is for
belter.
