who lias the editorial management, is al
ready well-known to the Church as the gift

of great popularity. His learning, and ex

him for the responsible position to which he

Dress.
The subject of dress is engaging the at
tention of Methodists in England. The lle
cordcr abounds with communications on the
vexed question. It is strange that men and
women professing godliness do not see the
vanity of “dressiness,” and keep within the
bounds of reason, modesty, and common
sense. “An Old Disciple” says in the Re
corder : “I am a very old Methodist, and I
know from personal observation, that, with
few exceptions, the Methodist women in my
early days were as well known when seen
abroad in the market, chapel, or elsewhere,
by the plainness and neatness of their dress
to be Methodists, as were the female mem
bers of the Society of Friends known by
theirs to belong to that community of Chris
tians; and being the son of parents who
lived in the days of John Wesley himself, I
am possessed of certain information that
such was the case then. That a few profess
ors of religion amongst the early Methodists
might conform to some extent to the fash
ions of the world, cannot be matter of sur
prise, when we consider the weakness of
poor human nature; but they cannot bo
numbered with the Hester Ann Rogerses
and Mary Fleclicrs of that age who have
left such fragrant records of exalted piety
behind them. Your lady correspondent
states that the reason why the Methodist wo
men of former days did not wear ‘flowers
and feathers,’ was, ‘they were too far expen
sive for the generality of people to obtain,’
but that flow they are ‘brought within the
reach of almost all, by their extremely low
price;’ and she adds, ‘we women can make
bonnets much prettier, and at far less cost,
with flowers and feathers,’ than our ‘good
old Methodistic grandmothers’ could make
theirs ‘with rich white satin ribbon.’ Bon
nets were worn in former days, but the
things which ladies now wear on their heads
cannot truly be so named. Moreover, the
reduction in the prices of ‘flowers and feath
ers’ is no argument why Methodist women
should wear them, and thus conform to the
fashion of the world. I should think rib
bons of modest hue are equally reduced in
price; and would it not be more in accord
ance with the spirit of Christ, and the in
struction given in the word of God, to em
ploy the money spent on ‘flowers and feath
ers’ in clothing and feeding the poor, or
sending the gospel of Christ to the heathen?
I would advise ‘A Very Old-fashioned Meth
thodist’ to read carefully and prayerfully 1
Tim. 2:9; 1 Peter, 3: 3, and-Isaiali 3: 10-24,
and also the rules of our Church, signed by
J. and C. Wesley. It is in accordance with
the dictates of reason and teachings of the
sacred scriptures, that both men and women
should adopt any new improvements in their
costume which are adapted to preserve the
health and promote the comfort of the
wearers, while they scrupulously avoid the
gay, silly and sinful fashions of' a world at
enmity with God.—Pride in dress, in either
sex, is proof positive of a want of lowliness
of heart, and one of the most serious bar
riers to the progress of vital godliness; and,
until a change for the better in dress, as
well as in conformity to the world in some
other matters, takes place, we cannot expect
any extensive revivals of ‘pure religion nud
undefiled’ to take place. ”
Board of 31issions.
The late General Conference having con
solidated the two Boards, Foreign and Do
mestic, and adopted a constitution for the
government of our missionary operations in
future by one Board, located at Nashville,
the new Board convened May 31, 1870.
Present:—Bishop H. N. McTyeire, Rev.
T. O. Summers, D.D., President; J. B. Mc-
Ferrin, Secretary, and the Rev. R. A.
Young, D.D. M. Hamilton, John Morrow,
A. F. McFerrin, W. T. Gates, Managers.
The Board was organized, and the Rev.
Dr. A. H. Bedford was elected Treasurer.
Arrangements were made to procure books
and papers and reports from the officers of
the late Boards of Foreign and Domestic
Missions, so that the whole work for future
operations may bo before the newly ap
pointed Board.

of Mullins’ Depot, S. C., endeavoring, under

make a crop. Who has done more hard
work in thirty-three years than Brothers.?
Who merits a helping hand more than he?
Where are the thousands to whom and their

Dear Brethren :—lt was made my duty at
the last General Conference, to notify you,
that in rearranging the estimates for Bish
ops’ Fund, there was nn increased assessment
to our Conference, which takes effect this
year. It is therefore necessary to re-adjust
your assessments, for this Fund, by adding
to them, say, 50 per cent, to cover this in
crease and to pay traveling expenses of the
Bishop who attends our Conference.

the information,' and who will pledge themselves
not to divulge the secret for anj r consideration to

DOLLARS—obligating myself in every ease to fCv
turn the money with interest, if a failure. This
plan I discovered by actual operation, and have
found it to be successful, and needs only to be
presented to the intelligent mind to obtain favor
and adoption. Ido not hesitate to say that a hand
by ;my process can tend at least Half the usual
quantity of land of very bad Nut-Grass the first,
and all that a hand can do anywhere the next yeai
What I call Nut-Grass is a small black Cocoa
looking nut with numerous fibrous roots, and
having a main one shooting out, forming another l
nut and blade of grass. These roots and the bot

JOHN W. BURKE General Agent
J. MERCER GREEN,.. Medical Examiner

The following comprise some of the unanswer
able arguments, why every Planter should imme
diately apply for a Policy of Life Insurance:
1. The changes and fluctuations taking place and
liable to occur in commercial affairs.
2. The unreliability of labor.
3. The uncertainty of crops and of prices.
4. The absence of requisite capital to meet the
losses and disappointments which may occur.
5. The certainty of distress which in most cases
must follow the loss of the head of the family by
death.
6. The certainty of provision for these contin
gencies, which a Life Insurance Policy affords to
every family, in a good company.
The Cotton States Life Insurance Company is a
good company, therefore a Policy in the Cotton
States Life Insurance Company is a provision which
will guard your loved ones from want, or pecuniary
distress in the eveut of your misfortune, or your
death.
The unprecedented success of this Company is
tlie best recommendation it can offer, having issued
over
I IOG Policies in its First Year
Upon the lives of some of the most prominent
men in Georgia, Alabama, Soutli Carolina and
Florida.
It issues policies upon all the most popular plans
of Insurance; gives its policy holders every ad
vantage they can get in any company Nortli or
South.
It is now successfully at work in Georgia, Ala
bama, North and Soutli Carolina, Florida and Ken

rpHE EXTENSIVE USE OF THESE AVATCII
-1 es for tlie last fifteen years by Railway Con
ductors, Engineers, aud Expressmen, the most
exacting of watch-wearers, has thoroughly demon
strated the strength, steadiness, durability and ac
curacy of the Waltham AVatcli. To satisfy that
class in all these respeets, is to decide the question
as to the real value of these time-keepers.
More than 450,000 of these watches are now
speaking for themselves iu the pockets of the peo
ple—a proof aud a guarantee of. their superiority
over all others.
The superior organization and great extent of
the Company’s Works at Waltham, enable them
to produce watches at a price whicli renders com
petition futile, and those who buy any other watch,
merely pay from 25 to 50 per cent, more for their
watches than is necessary.
We are now selling Waltham Watches at less
prices iu greenbacks, than the gold prices before
the war. There is no other manufacture of any
kind in the United States of which this can he
said.
These time-pieces combine every improvement
that a long experience lias proved of real practical
use. Having had tlie refusal of nearly every in
vention in watchmaking originating in this coun
try or in Europe, only those were finally adopted
which severe testing by tlie most skillful artisans
in our works, and long use on tlie part of the pub
lic, demonstrated to be essential to correct aud
enduring time-keeping.
Among the many improvements we would par
ticularize :
Tlie invention and use of a centre-pinion of pe
culiar construction, to prevent damage to the
train by the breakage of main-springs, is original
with tlie American Watch Company, who, having
had tlie refusal of all other contrivances, adopted
Fogg’s Patent pinion as being the best and fault
less.
Hardened and tempered hair-springs, now uni
versally admitted by watchmakers to be tlie best,
are used in all grades of Watham Watches.
All AValtliam AVatclies have dust-proof caps,
protecting the movement from dust and lessening
tlie necessity ol the frequent cleaning necessary
in other watches.
Our new patent stem-*inder, or keyless watch,
is alroady a decided success and a great improve
ment on any stem-winding watch iii the American
market, uud by far the cheapest watch of its quali
ty now ollereil to tlie public. To those living in
portions of the United States where watchmakers
do not abound, watches with the above mentioned
improvements which tend to insure accuracy,
cleanliness, durability and convenience, must
prove invaluable.
Every watch guaranteed by tlie Company.
To prevent imposition, buyers should see that
every watch should bear either of the following
trade marks.
American Watch Cos., Waltham, Mass
Asm. Watch Cos., Waltham, Mass
American Watch Cos.,
Crescent St Waltham, Mass
Appleton, Tracy & Cos., AYaltham, Mass

are as low as any other; third, Mr. Robinson is one
