Tho question whether a Women c«n

Southern Baptists, who met recently
in Augusta,Ga. Two women repre

so strongly that they voluntary with

Ti e attempted ingenuity of the Re

What a world of meaning there is
in this Hub word. It is tho very life
of our exist nice, th? light which guides
and cheers us on our weary march,
through the rugged path of life It
is worse than folly fol- us to fold oUr
linudfl and sit down in dispair, mourn
ing over wasted opportunities and re
flecting on what might have been;
better !>o looking out for a bright to
morrow. What would life be with
out I lope? and that the pleasures ill the
fnfnre for us are greater than those of
the past. It is Hope that causes us to
cling to life with sncli tenacity; that
enables us to persevere itl any great
undertaking, and cheers us in all
our hitter disappointments. How
cheering is the faintest ray of Hope,
to tlie lonely sailor far out upon the
stormy sea. Ho can realize with the
poet ns he sings;
‘'Star of Hope, gleams on the billow;
Bless the soul that sighs for thee;
Cheer tho sailors’ lonely pillow,
Par, far at sea.”
To an invalid who lias been on a
bed of suffering for Weeks and months,
how cheering is the knowledge, that
tho day is past and hope of recovey is
entertained. To the man or woman
in middlo life who spent their youth
ful days in hopes and plaits for tho f t
tnre —blight hopes, which few—ah
very few, ever realise, how sad is the
awakening, to find their hopes blasted,
plans laid waste, their whole lives a
living lie, and the words: “It might
havo been,” ring mournfnl in their
ears. 'Tie then, Hope, life’s bright
morning star remains to cheer, when
all others havo disappeared.

PREFEpRED CREDITORS
(Cartcrsvillo Cocraxt]
What do we mean by the word
creditor? A creditor is one who lends
money or articles of value to another,
and the party receiving these tliiugs
bccotnos the debtor. The party who
lends money, or goods, or labor, or
lands, or furniture, or food, or raiment,
or any other article of value to be paid
for at some fntuie time, is said to give
crtfcmr, whicji credit is smnetin.es de
fined to be t ic acquisit on >f oi e party
of the wealth of another in loan. Nt-w
in the nan cof justice, honesty and
common sense, what light has a debt
or to discriminate between partieswho
have loan d him their wealth? By a
promise to pay ho has simply trans
ferred tl.e wealth of his creditors to his
own pocket. Why should he have
the privilege to return the wealth that
one Ijas loaned him in preference to
the wealth loaned him by another?
Why discriminate between men who
have enriched thodebtoi tothcamount
of valuables loaned him? The truth
is that this whole system and practice
of preferential assignments bv which
the claim of one creditor may be pre
ferred to that of another is unjust, and
alas! too often fraudulent. Are the
debts all honest and just? Then let
each stand before the law upon an
equality with all others. Justice and
honesty demand that the corporation,
whatever its character, and the indi
vidual, whatever his vocation, twhen
they suspend payment, or become ci' l
solvent, or when they make an asign
ment, be deprived of the legal right
and privi’ego of naming certain parties
as profened creditors, while others
equally deserving, and perhaps more
needy, must take their chances in the
general scramble A law which encour
ages such wrong and opens the door
for such frauds as are usually perpe
trated under its provisions should nol

The Bullock Bonds •
For a couple ol week past there has
been a lively discussion in the Atlanta
('oiiMittiliou oil this subject, in which
ex-Governor Bullock has taken a
prominent pmt. That this move
ment is ihe begining of a gigantii
effort to force the people of Georgia t<
p«\ up these tiHinlnfent obligation'
incurred "bile ox Governor l’nl'rc
was in i thee, we do not doubt, and
i7)j! a tf’in te‘•o , v? on the
part of the people to stand by their
rights as tax payers, and to prevent
any further swindling to tlieir finan
cial injury, this movement will
amount to a good deal more than ap*
peais now on the surface. [For the
want of space, and considering its
length, we hero omit “the report of
the bond crmniittfee, which report, and
the Icarfnl exposures contained therein,
'induced the people of Georgia to re
pudiate a considerable amount of these
so-called obligations”. |
Now, the Covrant asks the free
citizens of this county, are yon going
to allow this gang of bandits(the same
old batid)to organize to fleece yon
again? Arc you going to let Lochranc,
as attorney, and Bullock and Clews as
stock broken*, and 11. I. Kimball as
general wire puller, to tyrannize you
again? Shall the “infernal foicc of
gold” fasten tho chains anew on your
limbs?
ltise up and protect yourself, and
when Kimball, Bullock Al Company
prepare another Commercial Conven
tion in Atlanta, to oiganizo ami tyr
anize Over yotir property, send for
Henry Clews and let tho whole crowd
be photograhed as they stand-—some l
thing like the picture gallcties that
adorn the police headquarters in New
York City, Bullock's gang, irrospect*
ive of party, nfe now giving opinions
that this matter should go to the
courts, Wheti there is force enough
applied to overcome the will of
people and corrupt a legislature, so as
to allow the courts ail opportunity to
revoke this righteous decision, then
the people should lay aside all reserve,
indict the men who are striving to do
now What they failed to do fourteen
ago, and it necessary start the crowd
to Canada, in the track of all specula
tors who manipulate other people's
money, and there will be no difficulty
in their finding the way to that spot,
as some have already been forced to
flee from Georgia in times past.
THE ROTHSCHILD6i
The grunt banking house of Rothschild or
iginated in Frankfort, Germany, about 150
years ago. Tho founder of the house dealt ill
Old clothes, and had for a sign .board a red
sheild, which in Gorman is koth sflilt). The
son of this old clothes dealer continued the
same business, became a pawn broker and
loaned money. He eucreedod go well that ho
died in 1818 leaving a fortune of $5,000,000.
He bound his five sons by a selomn oath to
follow the business togethor, holding the prop
orty in partnership and extendind their op
erations so that ull the world should know
tne firm of Rothschild. The sons were true
their oath. They occupied tho great financial
centers of thb world and worked for tho com
mon interest, Nathan in London prospered
wonderfully. He witnessed the battle of Wa
terloo, and by extraordinary efforts reached
London in advance of tho official couriers,
f/o reported a great viotory for Napoleon,
and stocks went down to almost nothing. Ho
refused t« buy but had scores of agents pur
chasing. Tho next day Wellington’s mess
enger arrived The truth was known and
stocks went up. ay this singlo lio the great
house of Rothschild made $5,000,000, After
that the firm rolled in wealth. It made its
power felt in tho palace of evory ruler in Eu
rope, in tho far East and in this western
world at the firesido of the Now England
farmer, and in the log cabin of the pionocr.
Tho Rothschilds of to-day have the spirit of
their ancestor. Thcs*rijoild a dangerrus power
They set their combinatioas to
work to effect the price of the daily bread if

their encouragement kings '.and ompoyrs

camp meeting at Mount Zion church,
about nine miles from Yorkvillo. The

down to see the "coons” and teach the

pistols, which go to make up the ne
groes’ defensive, outfit each party was
well supplied with whisky. Scarcely
had tlie first town continent arrived
when hostilities began. The conflict
was desperate and ’’bloody, and raged
fo.t ovet an hour at the end of r which
time the country “coons” were in pos
session of the field, and the town dar
kies in full retreat. The casulties, as
near as ca.i be learnsd were that one
negro was killed, two fatally wounded
and at least twenty were more or less
seriously injured. A general stainnede
followed the first clash. The meeting
