THE TENT MEETING. Mr. “8” Appeals to all Christians to Come out and Help. In the hurry of the business and theexc’ting scenes of the circus, and other hurtful influences, the Tent Meeting in tin* Fourth Ward, has to some extent ben lost sight of. But a goodly number gather every night to worship God and try to influence men and women to lead a I etter life And whenever this is accomplished, it is jurt so much to make our city better. It is passing strange therefore, that any such meeting should no 1 receive the endorsement and co-op eration of all good people. Preach ing in a tent may not seem to some to be the best means of reaching those who need the gospel; person ally, 1 would rather worship in the ■church, but it does reach and save some who do fc not go to church ..{buildings) and it is this class we ought to be the more anxious to save, and 1 thing that true Chris stainsought to be willing to make sacrifice of their personal preferences for the possible good of «atheo*. Again others give tent Service the cold shout ler, because it is a methodist affair,and possible some methodist regard it us a lower grade of worship than they can afford to endorse or arteud. ■Of course no one would admit this, er that they were prejudice in any way,but action* some times apeak loud -r than words, but the object of this letter is to appeal to al! who are interested in better morals and in religion (not church ism) to rally to this tent se vice: it is jus\ it is right, and will iot roby<>u <>f any time. It is o >t tor the exclusive bene fit of the Methodist or the Four b Ward It is to try to help the p.-o pie amt get them to live betUi lives; and it any are converter they can join whatever church they can serve God best in com < ov»*r and u a .

B, No Court Os Justice Ever questions the authority of the ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA. J Tuw- L. E. Bleckley, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Georgia, speaking of the new edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica, says: “ it is a vast store of information, extending to almost every subject of humrn interest. It stands to knowledge in genet al somewhat as a complete dictionary does o a language The promise. ‘Seek and ye shall find,’ will be recalled by all who consult its pages. Having, myself, profited by frequent and continual references to the work, I t commend it to others.” ■"Colonel Joo, / State Librarian of Georgia, says: “ This Encyclopedia, as an accurate and reliable source of information upon the vast number of subjects with which it deals, stands among the very first authorities of which I have any knowledge. Os the Encyclopaedias in this library' it has been selected to be placed in that part of the library devoted to the use especially of the Supreme Court of the State. I regard no library complete without this work.” I , The Constitution, ATLANTA. GA. .-r— — Abo Dissolution Notice The Partnership heretofore ex isting between W. L.

Three centuries ago it was employed by less (ban 3,000,000 ot people; today it is spoken by over 115,000,000 people in ail parts of 1 rhe globe,and is constantly iucreas ing both as to population and ter ritory. At present it is distributed as fo.lows .United States, 65,000,000; British Islands, 38.900,000; Cana da, exclusive of French Canadians. 4,000,000; West Indies, British Guiana, etc. 1’500,000; Australasia 4,000,000; South Africa India,a nd other colonies, 2.500,00 U. This includes only those whose mother tongue is English, no ac count being taken of the vast num her who speak English but who another tongue. The increase of English speakers is calculated to be fully 2,000,000 annually. No other language of modern times has made such rapid prog ress. Three hundred years ago the 3,000,000 people who spoke Eng lish resided principally on the British fsles. Now it is spoken more or less in nearly every coun try on the face of the The principal languages which competes with English, not consid ering such as Chinese and Hindo stanee, are French, Spanish, Rus sian and German. French is practically stationary as regards the number of its adher ents; Spanish is largely spoken in 1 South America and the southern part of North America, but it owes its prominence to the colonizing genius of its speakers; where Ger man is introduced it rapidly gives way to the native tongue, general ly English ; Russian, like the Ger man, has little influence upon the Western civilization. It is a remarkable fact that while the English in their colonies and offshoots have absorbed mil lions of aliens there is no record of any great body of English speak ers having become absorbed by any other race. In the United States there are millions of Germans and other foreigners who have become merg ed with the English speakers in a single generation, they losing even their family names; and the chil dren in many cases do not under stand their parents’ language. In Canada, however, the French speaking population is increasing faster than the English speaking. This is not because the French element absorbs the English, but because it crowds it out. While the French is seldom absorbed by any other tongue, it is most always absorbed by the English. The Engli-h have practically drive i tie French out of Egypt and it is rapidly driving the Dutch out of Africa. This has been ac complished in Egypt within a doz en years. The change in Africa is being effected with even greater rapidity. As the English speaking settlers rush into the new country, the Dutch and other languages, which are rarely to be met with, drop in to the backwoods and are finally lost. Africa is witnessing a repetition of the fight of the tongues in Amer ica three centuries ago, which end ed in a victory for the English. The history of lingual developement in America alone is a sufficient argu ment for the prediction that no languages, except possibly those of the Orient, will long remain for midable competitors oi the Eng -1 lish. —Troy (N.
