Men of Note.
Robert Taylor is governor of Ten
taessee; W. Y. Atkinson is governor
Of Georgia; W. N. Spence is judge
of the Superior Court of the Albany
circuit; J. W. Walters is solicitor of
the Superior Court- of the Albany
circuit; L, D. Monroe is judge of

ledge is solicitor of Calhoun county
court.
I have no objections to the above
tnen.
On last Sunday afternoon when a
few persons were going to the
Methodist Sunday school, some gov¬
ernor, president, solicitor or ungodly
than or boy passed the church in
their shirt sleeves on their way to
Notchaway creek to go in bathing
Men and boys, I do not know who
the leader of this heathen band was,
but I hope he wus not a member of
any church. Meti and hoys, if you
have no respect for your parents,
no respect for the Sabbath and no
respect for God, let ttie beg you the
Heat time you wish to go to the
creek on Sunday iu place ot staying
at home readihg your Bible or at
tending Sunday school or preaching
and acting like you was at least civ-
llmed people. Let ttio beg you in
common sense and common reason
if you are going to the creek next
Sunday please get up before day and
go some back way and stay all day
and come back after dark. This
will be as mean as 'the devil wants
you to be. You who was over
twelve years old that went may God
hot let you rest day or night until
you get forgiveuess. Parents look
after you children,
Now a word to others
Brothers and sisters, you who do
not attend Sunday school and pfay-
errtieetings, what are you doing?
What city aro you making lor!
What do you expect for your chil-
dti nf Let me beg you, keep your
children off of the creek on Sunday;
Don’t send them to Sunday school,
prayer meeting aud preaching, but
learn the lessons yourselves and
learn them to your precious children
and go aud carry them. Oh, lot Us
not so act as to bring God’s wrath
upon us. Oh, think of Johnstown,
(Charleston, yes, and Arlington.
Your faithful friend,
B. JSl. McGUlRT.
Progress of the Southern Negro.
I have selected for the theme of
i^v discource ‘ The Progress of the
Negro.” Seeing so much that, retard
the progress of the negro and this
being a subject that always aroused
my curiosity I was enthused to
speak a few words on this important
subject.
What are the Southern negroes
doing toward the progress of their
race? When this question is asked
we are caused by some means to
falter, while some, wo will admit, are
doing all in their power to raise
falieti humanity, others instead of
building are tearing down. We who
are said to come from the dark jun¬
gles of Africa and is spoken of as
being one of the least civilized races,
ought to try to show to other nations
that we are climbing and by honest
and earnest struggles, will reach the
summit of the hill some day. Now,
let us take an illustration like this:
If we do not care for our honors who
will care for thorn? So it is with
our race. If we no not earn for our
race who will care for ii? Who is it
that will care more for us that we
care fob oursolves? We should love
our race, stick to our race and study
the progress of our people.
There are many obstacles ih our
journey that havo a tendency to rre
tard the progress of our race.
First, I will aim at the leaders,
The ones to whom I refer as leadors
are the preachers and the teachers.
Let the sheperd get straight and
then tho sheep will follow. Now,
leaders draw up your toes for I don’t
want to step on them. You say you
are teaching the people the true way
of living, also training up girls and
boys to be useful mer, and women.
Can wo be successful in so great a
work unless we make our lives a
model, live spotless from the world
that these followers may bo con¬
strained to follow? 1 will answer,
“no.” Then vou say leading, eb?
Yes, you aro leading—down to deg¬
radation. We should lay good ex¬
amples for the girls aud boys who
are now being reared in otir homes !
and have in out passed community so tho that „river when ot |
we over
Death they viill ba able to eternize
the happiuese of their lives but to
continue in pleasure.
I . glad . to that going
am very sat in
around 1 come in Contact vrith many
others who are trying to elevate the
people We speak of edueatiou.

Now, dear people we are just trying
to learn and rear your girls and boys
to keep out of the jail house and out
of bad places. I am here to put you
on notice that we have some among
my sex who mean good, and mean
to do good. Understanding too that
we who mean good will bo jared but
nevertheless,-1 mean to stand study
as that old oak stood in ancient
times. Education of the hand and
heart, of the mind and soul, unceas¬
ing, endless, infinite, eternal! No
subject too profound for its grasp,
no thought too exalted for its touch.
Could I in statue reach the pole,
Or grasp creation iu my span,
I’d still bo measured by my soul;
The mind’s the statue ot the man.
Wo are laboring to make school a
success. Of course the white’s
schools have closed, but we must re¬
member we are not able to do just
ns we would wish. We will have to
teach the school when we can get the
scholars. So let us go on and have
a jolly good time.

throat, increased your weight,

come back again, or you are get¬
ting a little thin and pale.
Then, why not continue the
same helpful remedy right

Beyond Eternity,
“Oh, fairest of living creatures!” cried
Never! hunk St. Clair-Abraham, as ho
cast Jlimself prostrate at Honey MeGiuty’s
colussal feet; “but name the day, no
matter when, when tlrou wilt be my
blushing bride, and make me the baps
piest of inou—yea, even happier than a
newly-appointed fourth-class porttnastef
making out his first commission!”
But the fair Hun (as those who loved
her called her) dungkter of a famous race,
olevated her nose in scorn.
“Know then, rash sir;” quoth she,
with the haughtiness of railroad
on a $24 salary, or a uevvly-conimissoued
volunteer officer to a iovmer comrade,
“Know thou, that I will be tbinc when
the hair of tliy head can be counted, like
silvor(IG to 1) threads, and thy stalwart
form is bent with ago until it is like the
back of a tax-payer—then, and not be?
fore, will I be thy bride.”
“Nay, say not so, plead Neverthunk
with the beseeching tone of a man nego¬
tiating a lean from an obdurate Creditor
“Indeed, I kuow thou dost but jest with
me. But if the worst be true, aud thou
do meanest thy words, then I will wait
for thee, even as the candidate waitoth
at the polls for the voter.”
“Then, since thou art so patient,” Baid
the beautiful Honey, with the cussod
leer of a mini who knows good war nows
and won’t tell it; -‘then, siueo thou ate
so willing, thou mavst wait a littlo loa-
gel-, whou the music of earth aud olitnb
in unison; when atom meets fetom feud
forms an harmonious wtiole; when angfel 1
and archangel sing the praises of their
Master tb tho children of moil; when the
day of the millennium is at hand; when
tho candidate is still, and the banker titi
longet protests then, and not until then;
wiU j p,, thy bride. ”
“Ob, bitter-sweet one;” quoth Bt. Clair,
with the hopeffff tone' of the (nan giving
the seventh mortgage on his crop/of
that year; “Even 11 OW yott do not dis¬
courage me. 1 have done business in fe
growing town fur fe yeur withotit fedvet-
rising, and am Used to waiting. Gladly
[lo l Sill[]te tb ^ promjsL , a bri()o and
iie kissed the wart on her left flnget.
“Nay then, said Hun, with tha scorn¬
ful, cruel glitter in bereybof a man who
has his first idea in ten years, “since tholi
art so patient, speedily sbnlt thou ifeceive
thy reward. Prepare for joy, oh, my
own! Know, that on the day the Geor¬
gia Pine Railroad is finished, J will be
all aud truly thine!”
“Fair, false and Cruet Crcatufb!” shofrt-
ed Neverlhn-nk, with a hoivi of rage aud
dispare, like a man who gets a good
bite and finds his bait is gone, “I hud
made up my mind to wait always, but
thou hast seta time boyond eternity!
My blood be upon ytkir head!” Ahd in
his transport Of hopeless agony, lm
burst a fever-blister oh ilia upper lip,
and dtdinted before her pitiless eyes.
