G. B. Strickler’s sermon at the beautiful house of God, the Cen tral Presbyterian. The following were the thoughts sugested by bis sermon: First—Christ tells us what is the spiritual condition of those whom he came to save. He don’t say those who are in danger or who will be lost, but those who sre lost; not those who have been injured, but those destroyed by sin. Second —You are lost because you have vio lated God’s law, and the penalty is spiritual death. Third —As a King he saves you, for by his mighty power he keeps you, and reigns over you and in you. You imagine it is very difficult thing to secure this saving work. Not at all. He came to seek and to save. He is hear now seeking to save you if you will simply allow nitn to do so. At the Third Presbyterian Night Service. At night Rev. Mr. Brim preached at the third church from 3d chapter of 2 Peter and 18 verse, “Grow In grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savim, Jesus Christ.’’ For grace in under law, as the plant and ani mal. If you put a plant in tbe shade it will never grow. An animal will not grow without the sun. Souls grow in grace like the plant; it grows forward and grows all the time. We all change in nature every seven years. The apos tle says nut off the olil man and put on the now man. We as Christians commence as babies and grow unto manhood. feme souls go right up like tbe thief on the cross. We grow up in grace from babes to full stat ure. You can stunt this growth like the chime does in nature. How is this done ‘I By keep ing from us the word—our Bible. If we do not have this food we do not grow. We must in crease in faith day by day hour by hour, and get nearer our heavenly h“me. I believe many in the church are strangers to Christ, and every day they get further from Him. Enoch walked with God, day by day, and knew each other bet ter each day. How are we to grow 7 The church must wean itself from the world and leave it. You let the young man and woman wake up, and many will come to Him. If we grow we must go at it with all our heart and put all our strength into it. How does the professional men grow. They have made it their business. If we grow in grace it must be our business. We must push it. If we sit down and idle our time we will loose all like water out of a leaking bucket. If we fail to do our duty we must blame ourselves. It is ■he great thing for Christians to do—pushit and grow in grace. Third Presbyterian—Morniiig Ser vices. Mr. Smith preached from the text—7th verse 21st chapter of Revelations: “He that over cometh shall inherit all things.” A Christian is a soldier. Life is a warfare. When a man lays down his arms to the devil and takes the weapons of Jesus, he demands them to show their colors and to use bis weapons at all times. He must not fight for sixty or ninety days, but forever. An angel came to comfort Jesus—they will come to comfort you. The devil’s angels howl when a soul comes to God. They are ever after you, and until you reach heaven they will follow you. Some are here to-day under his power, and I don’t wonder at it. They are gentle to you, but they will bring their curse into your heart. When he comes shut the door —tell him Christ dwells within. You all have enemies, and in heart are devils in disguise. Put on the whole armor ot God and stand against tbe devil. There is safety near the cross. Stick close to it. How dark the world if not for Jesus Christ, my brethren. Oh 1 how I shall be disappointed if all are notin the kingdom. Willyou stand, and be true to him 7 Bv and by the crown shall be ours, and when he calls we shall inherit eternal life. Be faithful unto the end, and all shall have a crown of glory. Congregational. Dr. Eddy, tbe pastor, filled the pulpit of the Church of the Redeemer, and took for bis text the verse, “This do in remembrance of me ;” found in Ist Cor., 11-24. The sermon was a doctrinal one, but delivered eloquently and effectively. At the communion service after the lecture eight persons were admitted into the church. St. Lake’s Cathedral. Rev. W. R. McConnell, of Cartersville, held both morning and evening services in this church yesterday. The church was comforta bly filled at both services. His remarks in the morning were about Mar tha and Mary. A housewile must attend to certain dulies, but still they must not interfere with her religious worship. In the evening he delivered an able sermon on the “words that cometh out of the mouth of man.” The singing was excellent and services were greatly enjoyed by all present. Herean—C«iigregatisnal. Yesterday was a most memoriable day in the history of this church. Rev. Mr. Shaw, the pastor, occupied the pulpit for the most part of the day. As was previously announced the funeral services of their deceased brother, Frank Nash, took place at 11 o’clock and were conducted very touchingly by Mr. Shaw, in his usual impressive manner. " The church was crowded with old and voting, which evinced the as e.iai that was he ld for this one wl o was once a devoted member of this church. The building was handsomely decorated with flowers and pre sented a striking symbolic appearance with crape attacheel to parts of the inner walls. TUX SXRVICXS LAST SIGHT were also very interesting, Mr. Shaw selecting for his text the first commandment, “Thou shall love the Lord thy Gad with all thy heart, and with all thy strength, and with all thv soul,” etc., spoke at length very ablv. Among the thoughts suggested to the*hearers, were “We are prone to worship idols. We let our hearts deceive us. The professional Christian will as sert that he loves the Lord and at the same time will not strive to do bis will. Some peo ple really are deceived, and make a confession that they love the Lord when thev do not, though thev are honest in their b< lief. The word says, “If we love the Lord we should keep his commandments,” and our most consistent church members slacken up on this thought, while they say they really love him, their heart ignorantly misleads them. The most difficult thing in a Christian’s life is to love the Lord with all their hearts. None of us love him as we should. We should be more attentive to our church duties and the Sunday-school work. Our Christian merchants, many of them, will turn out to weeklv prayer meetings about sues a month, or not so often, and on that night they get up and sav thev lore the Lord their God with all their ’heart; yet tl.ay wouldn’t close their business to devote one hour to tbe services of God. Let us examine our hearts and make them more pleasing to the sight of Him who overrules all things. NOTXS FROM THS PRY. Crowded congregations. New seats were arranged. Tbs Sunday-school is still growing. The house was well lit up last night. A meeting of the members is called for Tues day night. Tbe funeral sermon of Mr. Nash was filled with pethoa. A sweet breeze seemed to flow from the lovelv wreathe of mixed flowers which decorated the bouse. i Last night fully three hundred persons were ' inside tbe church, while some went awav unable I to find roam. , The regular weakly prayer meeting will be THB EVENING CAPITOL: ATLANTA. GA. MONDAY. MAY 0,1886 held on Thursday night, at which time business will come up. The sacramental services were dispensed last night. This is a monthly occurrence with this church, and is essential to their creed. The singing school of Mr. White will continue for five nights, as *be scholars petitioned for. At the end of this time a grand concert will be fiven, fixed now to come oft a week from next 'riday night. second Eapilni—Morning. The Second Baptist pulpit w:.s filled by Rev. R. H. Buckley, in a most able manner. His text was on the parable of Lazarus and the rich man. Many of his sentences were choice bits of oratory and the whole was delivered with an easy grace of manner and cap'ivating address. Among his beautiful expressions was the fol lowing: We stand now in an age which is remaikable for the general spread of knowledge and for the ease with which an education may be secured. The avenue leading upward is open to every one, from the highest to the lowest but it is possible that we may be too boastful and too proud of these things. It is right to encourage every child in laudable aspirations, but care should be taken that no false light is put into the young mind. Few people appreciate the lasting impressions that are received at the mother’s knee. Fifth Raplist Church. In the absence of the Ret. V. C. Norcross, the pastor, Rev. W. J. Barton conducted the ser vices at this church yesterday, both morning and evening. I•» each instance the congrega tion was good, nd tbe expounding of the divine law by Rev. Mr. Barton was impressive. Trinity Church. The sermons of Rev. J. W. Lee are always instructive and entertaining. That they are popular is attested by the fact that the church is always crowded. Yesterday was no exception, and his large audience listened to a sermon from the text: “ Tbe kingdom of heaven is like leaven which a woman hid in three measures of meal till the whole was leavened.”—Mat xiii:33. The di.course was listened to attentively throughout by the large audience, who went home spiritually strengthened. The Ordinance of Baptism. Yesterday evening at 4 o’clock there was a general baptizing, which took place at a pool fixed for the purpose, near the eastern limits. There were six candidates to be baptized, three of which were sprinkled and three were immers ed, yet all were candidates for membership to the same church. Fully five hundred people saw the performance, several of them having went from up town. While those of the white people were yet there, a crowd of Ethiopians passed by en route to their place for baptizing, just down the branch a piece This must have been an extraordinary day with the ministers, for the symbolic baptismal ordinance. “Let t e good work go on.” CITY NEWS. Afternoon Items Roiled Down From This Morning’s Paper. John T.ay and Amos Boon had a desperate fight yesterday afternoon near tha Exposition cotton mills. Boon was shot in the shoulder and Lay was cut in several places. The diffi culty was the result of a remark Boon made about one of Lay’s female friends. Lay drew a pistol and fired at Boon, the ball taking effect in the left shoulder. As Lay was about to fire again, Boon drew a knife, and catching hold of the pistol, began to slash about the bead and face, inflicting a number of serious wounds. Lay continued to shoot nntil his revolver was empty, but all tbe balls went into the ground. The affair happened outside the city and the police made no arrests. Early yesterday morning the Busch Zouaves passed through the city en route home from Sa vannah.

Nearly half the time allowed by law to make State and county tax returns has passed, and yet not one fourth of the taxpayers have done so.

Respectfully. J. 0. HARRIS, State and County Tax Receiver.
