An open letter from a friend of

Sunday, 14th, —This morning I
awoke with the sound of a wood
man’s .axe falling upon my ear—
O shadss of ye O. S. Presbyterians.
\Vh.o i rught me to Remember the
Sabbath day and keep it holy
(against my Avill), imagine the
“holly horror” of one thus taught
while listening —there! I now hear
another man cutting wood. As
though his Father’s supply of
sulphur had nearly run out and
the vv.'nnfli of his future abode—
depended on tus adding a few
r;•ks in a hurry. lam not saying
against the Trenton’s morality.
Taken as whole, no town is more'
moral. I only sa v the great Author
of the moral law, and out little
municipal Authorities are very
kind, and indulgent as some of our
Sabbath breakers Avould now bo
where Giey would have no desire
to chop Avood at any time.
To dav Ave’had a united Sunday
chool at the C. P. church. A ser
mon by the M. E. circuit preacher.
I never enjoyed a “meeting more—
thinking all the Avhile that it was
pure brotnerly love bringing us to
gether, but I now feel more than
ever the truth of tne old couplet:
“Where ignoronce is bliss
’Tis foliv to be wise.”
Never the less we heard a good
sermon—one we will never forget
—because it came from a heart
overflowing with love to God and
his fellowmen. If nature hasen’t
written a le f ter of credit and sin
cerity on the race of our new
preacher I’ll never try and read
her hand writing again. Wouldn’t
it be sweet indeed if all Christians
could or would dwell together in
unity. The path of Heaien though
narrow is no bridge of A 1 Sirat, it
is too narrow to allow us to carry
one sin along—yet we can put our
beliefs in our bosoms, grasp each
other by the hand and be a mutual
support. My pen is running away'
with me, you know it alway s does
when I touch upon the above sub*
: jecL I have quoted, he that loyeth
not, knoweth not God for God is
dove. If I weieriehl would hive
those words printed on a thousand
tablets in letters of gold, pr?ent

Ldid want to say something about
bur school, but my time and paper

is nearly up. Suffice it to say we
hive a seboel rivaled only in num
bersby any institution in North
Georgia. Our teachers are indeed,
and in truth teachers in every
