Intemling Mermen*. FIRST BAPTIST. At the First Baptist, the pastor, Dr. Campbell, preached a sermon of peculiar beauty and force from tbe text: “The en trance of Thy Word is light.” We are ut terly ignorant as to tbe nature of light. Darknes* is tbe shadow of tbs earth upon which we live, and light tbe absence ot that shadow—this being about the sum to tal of what light is. After a scientific discussion of tbe con stituent prop.-rties and qualities of light, tbe speaker drew a striking and perfect analogy between physical and spiritual light. The vitalizing property of light, producing and maintaining life, was given special prominence, and applied with much clearoea* and force. Blot out the snn, the source us physical light and couacqucnl • life, and death to every form of animal and vegetable life eoauea. 80, destroy the Bibb-, blot it out from tbe history of the world and tbe memory of man, and the same results follow to a l social and spirit ual life. Tbe study of God’s Word is of tbe highest iin[K>rtaoce. The Christian wbo content* himself with a mere superfi cial knowledge, or a meagre, second-hand supply of the truth* and facts therein con tained, is starving bis soul The pale face ot the invalid is not wholly due to tbe ravages of disease. Confine a man in per fect health in a Cell whete little or no light is allowed to penetrate, and the same re sult ia produced. So, neglecting the W.ird of Gud, ia like witholding the very air aud ligu. an essential to life. AT TUB i'HKSBYT'EHIAN CULRCH. Dr. Laue, at the Presbyterian church Sunday, preached a ui<at appropriate srrtu ui to the uccaMon, from tbe Bib verse ot tbe xvi. Psalm: “I have set tbe Lord always before me.” He Illustrated how a person dealrtug to see a landscape would ascend tu a higher elevation, or one wish ing to sec the Ocean would visit tbe *ea ak’Ne-, an we should nut only oo special occasion*, but always through the HI hour* of tte d»v—morning, noon and eve mag—rathe Lot 4 before us- King Asa, for twenty year*, waa one us tbe moat prosperous us Judab • King’s, and the se cret of bi* succaaa was due to his always Betting th* Lord before him io every uo d- rlakiag, in every plan. Tue lasi twenty year* wm jwst the reverse. He bad become elevated in b<s uwn strength—bl* pi<n» were without God’s wisdom Nucb would ta tte stats us a man wbo forgets to set tbe Lord always before him. Tbe greatest failures and Ibe gredcst dangers to a Christian, w»S tn fading to apply thia text Libsifr. We should be careful always j to best tkta in mnd before giving *n en , IrttaioOM-n'.

FIRST METHODIST. Rev. W. D. Andenun preached from the . Uih and lilh veiaes of 3rd chapter of Mathew: “I indeed baptise you with wa ter unt<> repentace, but lie that cometb after me is mightier than 1, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear; He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire; whose fan is in His band, and He will r thoroughly purge His floor, and gather His wheat into the garner, but will burn tbe . chaff with unquenchable fire.” John . stood next to Christ, both as to time and i station—but above all, as to tbe doctriu he preached. Repentance is the first, las . and greatest step to salvation. To crea tures such as w<, repentance is logical and . natural. When a man does wrong, is con. scious of tbe wrong, It is logical aud natu ; ral that he should feel sorry for tbe wrong. I But in tbe act of repentance, there is no deliverance—no life-conferring power i Christ gave it force. He was to baptize with Holy Ghost and fire—baptize with . power. The power to become the tons and , oanghtvre of God. This leads thought in I order and hamony to tbe next: “Whose fan is in His hand.” Everything must - show its right to live. Tbe tender plant - must druggie, tbe bird aud beast must have sleepless vigilance to escsoe their fries. Mau ft under the same law. His splendid endowment of power brings him under tbe It* us stewardship. Probation is to dcsenniue the wheat and the chaff— The ttheat is the man who puts bw talent to usury—tbe women wbo set as tbe wise virgins of Gospel story. “Straws show which way the wind blows." So we have all come to know. But under tbe simile used in the text, we are taught that while the straws show which way the wind blows, so also does the wind show which are the draws. A man may know bis spir itual strength by the measure us resistance lie off rs to evil. Christ has not decreed that Uii* man is wheat, and thia one chaff; but In tbe great school of trial, He is ascer taining. Io tbe K ngdom of God there 1* the iaw of compensatioa. When we read in the Bible us men wbo have won great victor tea, we find they were men resisting evil most and best. They got their muscle breasting tbe storm. in two ra»R««.

ATHENS CHRONICLE SUBSCRIPTION SI.OO PFR Y ADVANCE ADVERTISING RATES REASONABLE For the Chronicle, ntasical iailra* s*ta a* Pets •( Nsciety No instrament will probably ever super cede the “guitar” as a favorite, for its sweet tones, its capacity, and tbe many graceful positions tbe performer may as sume, are alike attractive. Os Spanish origin, it carries with it an air of romance pleasing to the imagination; while listen ing to the strains of some romanz i or sere nade, one may rea lily draw pictures of love scenes beneath the sunny skies of Spain; of fair maiden’s blushes as she listens to the song of some ardent admirer, while he accompanies himself upon tbe “guitar.” It is doubtful If theie is anyone who loves music, that has not a warm place in their heart for this instrument; easy to learn as an accompaniment instru ment, aud unexcelled as sneb, it has yet a depth of capacity that few but expert performers realize. A noted German so loist, once remarked that he had been “studying the guitar for years, and had just learned that be bad a great deal more to learn, and that there wa* enough harmony in the first position to occupy a life time of study.” The harp too has always been more or less “a society pet,” but its high cost, the great number of strings, and difficult tu ning; requiring diligent practice and ap plication; place it within the reach of but few; so, though favored, it is rarely seen in ibe parlor of the aristocrat, exc pt in Italy Its home, where one will often find mere children expert performers. To once have heard tbe “harp” in the bands of a good performer, is always to love it. Tte Zytber alto has bad Ito day, aud passed into obscrurity as a society amuse ment; like tbe “harp,” it la exceedingly difficult, requiring a great deal of power aud study. A few years ago one would frequently bear the xy'htr at fashionable entertainments, while now it is not thought of. A nut onal Geimao instrument, and greatly loved by them, >t also has a warm place in tbe hearts of levels us stringed insi rumento. The piano, and violin are so well known and loved by everyone wbo has an ear for music, that their position is established as a “household article.” Within a few years tbe cornet was very popular, the young l«dy and ber sole l ather c*r»et ca-e was a common sight on the streets of our large oities, but she soon became ' ired of having her pretty lipa pressed bard and thin, and must (Jay the “irandoline** instead, which like tte guitar is a Spanish instrument; nut very difficult to master and very pleasing to the ear.
