Emory College.
At a moating of the Board of Trustees
of she College, held at Grifiin on the 2J
instant, Dr. O. L. Smith, President, ten
dered his resignation in the following let
ter:
Griffin, Ga., Dec. 2, 1875.
To the Trustees of Emory College: ■
Gentlemen— Four yenri ago I accepted
at yonr bunds the Presidency of Emory
College. I did so reluctantly because I
have always preferred to occupy a more
humble place. The peculiar burdens and
cares and responsibilities of high places
have always been to me specially onerous
and distasteful, and with incroasing years
they are incrotisiugly so.
Under a sense of duty I have held the
place, and endeavored to do the woik as
signed me, nor have I until now seen the
way open to resignation of the trust com
mitted to me. Tho time has now come
when I may, not only without damage,
but with positive benefit to all interests
involved, consult my own preference.
I now tender you my resignation as
President of Emory College. I may be
permitted to exprtrs tny sense of obliga
tion to the Board for the kiudnCaS and
courtesy shown me, both personally and
offi dally, in a;l my intercourse with them.
Trusting that, under wise counsels Di
vinely dictated still greater and richer
blessings m*y rest, ou the College in the
future thau ever in the past, I am, dear
brethren, as over, Yours fraternally,
O. L. Smith.
The B jard accepted the resignation, and
proceeded to elect the following officers:
Itjv. A. G. Haygood, D. D., President,
and Professor of Mental and Moral Pui
los ophy.
Rev. O. L. Smith, D. D., Professor of
Latin Literature.
Rev. M. Calloway, D D., Professor of
English Literature.
The other chairs remain as heretofore
filled by Professors Stone, Doggett, a id
Bonnell; and R. W, Smith in the A'a
demic Department.
This action of the Board was nuaui
mens, and it is believed will give general
satisfaction to all the friends of Emory
College.
Hoa. James Jackson ofifired the follow
ing resolutions, which were unanimously
adopted:
Resolved 1 That this Board has re
ceived the le.siguation of Dr. O. L Smith
with sentiments of increased esteem, if
that were possible, of his character as a
Christian gentleman, and of that trne
greatnesi of nature, which mokes man
akin to the meek and lowly Saviour.
2. That he has exhibited a nobility of
soul of which few meu are capable, and
his practically exhibited the teaohiug o(
the great Apostle, think other
!>■ tter than himself."
3 ‘Out this B >ard was not only well
satisd and, but highly approved of his en
tire administration as President, and had
he remained in that high offije wonld
have received oar continued and undivi
and and support.
4 That our admiration, love and pr iy
ers follow him io the humbler position he
has volnntarily chosen, and that iu our
hearts and minds he has already realized
the truth of the Lord’s words: “He thut
hnmbleth himrelf shall be exalted,”
Dr. H rygood was also elected Financial
Secretary, and will take the field in con
junction with Bishop Pierce in raising
funds to complete the bnildiugs at Ox
ford, and the endowment.
Now let ail the friends of Emory co
operate with :lie Board and Fucnlty, aud
our Colleg i w 11 soon tika rank among
the best and m s' prosperous institutions
of the land.
The Church at Gordon, Ga.
We have seen an article in the last issue
of the Christian Index, in which Rev. B.
H. Ivey raises the cry of persecution,
beoanse a Quarterly Conference of onr
Church refused longer to allow him to nse
onr house of worship. As this article
may create an erroneous opinion, where
the facts are unknown, we beg leave to
explain. We do not believe brother Ivey
intended to misrepresent the facts, but he
looks at them fr jin a Baptist standpoint,
aud, perhaps unwittingly, does our Gor
don friends great injustice. We give the
facts:
The Methodist congregation bnilt a
church at Gordon. As it was only need
two Sabbaths in the month, onr Baptist
friends were allowed to occupy the house
on one or both the other Sibbaths. This
arrangement continued for many months,
and no objection was made to it by any
of our people. Everything was harmoni
ous. At length an effort was made by
somebody to dissatisfy our membership
in regar Ito their baptism. One brother
who afterwar Is j .iued the Baptist Church
told ns that brother Ivey told him he had
never been, baptized , and that nobody but a
Baptist minister was authorized to baptise
him That certain Methodist preachers
nam j d, not only could not baptize him,
but had never been baptized themselves He
farther said that the intelligent, educa’ed
Methodist ministers, knew that a certain
Greek word meant nothing but immerse,
and they kept the common people in
ignorance, or words to that effect.
Is it at all strange that when we invited
them into onr house, aDd they began to
use it to abuse us and our doctrines and
usages, that our people should become
restless, and close their doors against their
traducers? Brother Ivey may call it per
secution, but we can’t see it in that light.
If we were to invite a neighbor to occipy
our dwelling-house temporarily, and we
should find him on various occasions seek
ing to prej ndice our own household against
ns, and trying to induce our children or
servants to leave us for what he represent
ed as batter quarters, and we should show
him the door, it would not be persecu
tion, but simply exercising the divine
right of self protection. Nothing more.
We hope our Baptist brethren wiil suc
ceed in building a house of worship at
Gordon, and be instrumental in accom
plishing much good, by turning sinners
to repentance and to lovo the gospel of
Christ. This is a far better work than
prostly ting members from other churches.

A Valuable Work.
Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, distinguished in
surgery, and the general practice in the profession
he honors, has made a valuable contribution to
the medical literature of the day, in acomprehen
give work entitled “ The People’s Common Sense
Medical Adviser.” While scientific throughout,
it is singularly free from technical aud stilted
terms. It comes right down to the common sense
of every-day life. Dr. Pierce is a noble specimen
of American manhood. Ho has sprung from the
people; amd. with many sympathies in common
with the masses, has sought to render them a sub
stantial service in this the great work of his life.
1776 and 1876.
What changes have taken place in that period?
In none hate they been more radical than in the
treatment of diseases. In the olden time, nature,
prostrate with pain and suffering, was attacked
with the lancet, calomel, bliscers, starvation and
thirst. All this was done with honest, intentions,
but with terrible results. It is a pleasing fact that
the enlightened public of the present day have
discarded such medication The disorders thut
sap the powers of life are now expelled by reme
dial agents, that brace up the vital strength, while
running its cause. The qualities are found in an
eminent degree in Du. Tutt’s Vegetable Liver
Pills Th*-y have become celebrated over a wide
exteut of tho globe as the safest and gentlest re
medial ageut ever offered to suffering humanity,
and it is not the result of newspaper puffing, but
by the great merit of the medicine itself.
CENTRAL AMERICAN
Prolific Cotton Seed
rpHE SEED OF THIS IMPROVED COTTON WAS INTRODUCED IN
JL 1872 from Central America. The superiority of this Cotton over all other upland varieties
consist!—
First, In the superiority of tho lint, as attested by certificates of prominent Cotton Factors and
Planters, given below.
Secondly, In its adaptation to our Southern climate with its excessive heat and drouth.
Thirdly, In its fruitage; on account of its hardiness, it scarcely sheds any of its forms, but fruits on
and grows till frost.

Central American Prolific Cotton Seed.—
We commend to the particular attention of our
farmer friends, the advertisement of Mr. J. H.
Hu-et. We aro not farmers, and cannot, there
fore, pronounce mpon the quality of this wonder
ful seed, from our own knowledge: but we are pre
pared, from personal acquaintance with Mr. lluiet,
verv full* to indorse hiui, and to say that his re-
Hablity in every way. stands A 1 among all who
know him.
The color of tho leaf is red, and in appearance differs entirely from any other variety; stands re
markably well prolonged drouths anti tdo parching heat of the Southern sun ; suffers less troui pro
tracted wet spoils, and is almost free from rust, so much so as to be called by most of persons who
have seen it
Red Rust Proof Cotton.
No better description can be given than to clip from a correspondence, dated July 2d, 1875, to the
Abbeville “Medium,” the views of a disinterested writer:
I had occasion a few days since to visit Batoa
burg, on the C. C. A A. R. R„ and there had the
pleasure of examining a field of cotton, which is
really wonderful but nevertheless strictly true.
Tho cotton is a red rust proof cotton--the seed
having been sent here from South America in
1872. This cotton is owned and planted by Mr.
A. I*. Bates, of Batesburg. It is so far superior co
anything in the way of cotton that l have ever
seen, that 1 fe*r to describe it. but let the incred
ulous only visit and examine for themselves.
Seeing is believing. This cotton claims ttie fol
lowing advantages over all others in use: Its
stalk is small, and will bear closer planting. Its
lint is tiaer ami its staple longer than oner pro
prolifios. it stands drouth and hot sun without
affecting its growth at all. It never sheds its
f. uit un i puts on more than any variety now known
and I challenge the cotton that will compare with
it. There is a patch of the noted Cheatham pro
lific in an aujoiuing field, and there is, plainly
speaking, no comparison between them. Ibe
Havimr onlv a limited supply of the above Seed, orders must be sent in early to insure attention

M 6 Sir—-I am much pleased with the CEN
TRAL AMERICAN COTTON. It stands dry

and well fruited. g-ggfe^
Augusta, Ga., September Bth, 1875.
J. 11. Hdiit, Batesburg. S. C. , _ :>
Dear Sir—We have examined, with interest,
the bale of cotton shipped to u by Mr. A. D.
Bates, and raised from his imported or CENTRAL
AMERICAN SEED. We find the fibre of it* lint
both stronger and longer than nine-tentha of the
cotton received by us this season, and think its
nature such as to commend it to all planters, es
pecially when the hardihood of the plant is con
sidered. Yeurs, truly, „
SIBLEY A WHELESS.
The undersigned have examined a sample of the
bale of cotton spoken of above, and fully agree
with Messrs. Sibley A Wheless in everything they
say of it. W H. HOWARD A SONS,
DOZIER. WALTON A CO.,
WARREN. WALLACE A CO.
Cheatham is very well fruited, but from the dry
weather is casting off its fruit to an alarming ex
tent; while the Egyptian is fully twice as heavi
ly fruited, aud is not casting off a single square.
It is e.ually as early as any other variety, there
now being upon the stalks from fifteen to twenty
grown bolls, with an average of five locks te each
boll. I don’t think it has a rival in the South
certainly Cheatham’s variety is not its equal.
During the drouth last year it never wilted or
seemed to fail in the leant, while other cottons
around it male a complete failure. Its color is
red. and at a distance of fifty jards it seenig to be
completely used up by rust. I never in all my
life have seen anything equal to it. On*, disad
vantage it might poisibly have is. that it might
take on so much fruit that the stalk would break
down, but that is hardly to be expected- What I
*ay is not “ buncombe.” because the cotton is there
to speak for itself, aud Batesburg is on the rail
road.

THE WEEKLY SUN.
1 776. New York. 1876.
Eighteen hundred and seventy-six is the Cen
tennial year. It is also the year in whic!v_an Op
position House of Representatives, the first since
the war, will be in power at Washington ; and the
year of the twenty-third election of a President
of the United States. All of these events are sure
to be of great interest and importance, especially
the two latter; and all of them, and everything
connected with them, will be tally and freshly re
pored and expounded in The Sun.
The Opposition House of Representatives, tak
ing up the line of inquiry opened years ago by
The Sun, will sternly and diligently investigate
the corruptions and misdeed* of Grant’s adminis
tration: and will, it is to be hoped, lay the foun
dation for anew and better period in our national
history. Of all this The Sun will contain com
plete and accurate accounts, famishing its readers
with early and trus.worthy information upon
these absorbing topics.
Thetwei ty-third Presidential election, with the
preparations for it, will be memorable as deciding
upon Grant’s aspirations for a third term of
power and plunder, and still more as deciding who
shall be the candidate of the party of Refarm,
and as electing that candidate. Concerning all
these subjects, those who read Toe Sun will have
the constant means of being thoroughly well in
formed.
The Weekly Sun, which has attained a circn
lation of over eighty thousand copies, already ha*
its readers in every State and Territory, and wa
trust that the year 1H76 will see their numbers
doubled. It will continue to be a thorough news
paper. All the general news of the day will be
found in it, condensed when unimportant, at full
length when of moment; and always, we trost,
treated in a clear, interesting, and instructive
manner.
It is onr aim to make the Weekly Sun the best
family newspaper in the world, and we shall con
tinue to give in its columns a large amount of
miscellaneous reading, such as stories, tales,
poems, scientific intelligence and agricultural in
formation, for which we are not able to make
room in our daily edition. The agricultural de
partment especinlly is one of its prominent fea
tures The fashions are also regularly reported in
its columns; and so are the markets of every
kind.
The Wiekly Sun. eight pages with fifty-six
broad columns, is only $1.20 a year, postage pre
paid. As this price barely repays the cost of the
paper, no discount can be made from this rate to
clubs, agent*, Postmasters, or any one.
The Daily Sun. a large four page newspaper of
twenty-eight columns, gives all the news for two
cents a copy. Subscription, postage prepaid. 55c.

sl.lO per year. We have no traveling agents

COMMISSION MERCHANT
—AND—
Dealer in Fertilizers.
Charleston, S. C., November 1,1875.
Having been engaged for twenty years in the
Guano trade with eminent success, I deemed it
advisable to introduce Fertilizers under my own
name and guarantee. I have made arrangements
to have prepared a Guano under my inspection
and control, called
Rota's Cotton M Corn Fertilizer.
This Guano is of the highest standard. It con
tains, among other valuable ingredients, 3 per
cent, of Ammonia, V/ 2 per cent, of Potash, and 14
per cent, of available Phosphate. I also have
prepared forme a
Compound Acid Phosphate
of the highest standard. These Fertilizers are
compounded of the purest materials, and aie ma
nipulated and tested under the supervision of Dr.
Sr. J. Ravrnel. of a this city, whoso name gives a
warrant tor their high character and adaptation
for our soil. I offer these Fertilizers to Planters
on the following favorable terms:
Hobson's Cotton and Corn Fertilizer,
Cash. 944 per ton.
On Time 50 per ton.
Robson's Compound Acid Phosphate,
Cash ..S2B per ton,
On time 33 per ton.
Planters ordering immediately will be allowed
to the Ist of April to decide which they prefer,
cash or time. An order for a car load of 8 tons
will be sent free of dray age; but for a less amount
81 per ton will be charged. On orders for large
lots from Grangers or dealers, a liberal discount
will be allowed,
I take this occason to return my thanks to those
who have so largely patronized the Fertilizers
hitherto offered by me, and in soliciting their fa
vorable attention to another, I pledge my best
efforts to meet a continuance ot confidence by
keeping the hightest standard of Fertilizers adapt

1 EXTRACT FROM LETTER OF
_i the late Dr. Thes. P. Atkinson, of DanvUlo.
Va., who was an honored member of tk* Hat*
Medioal Society:
Danville, Va„ Jan. sth, 1874.
For more than fifty years 1 have been a great
sufferer from that Protean disease, dtbfiMa, to
find relief from whi,h I have mad, many visits to
□early all of the mineral springs ia Virginia, in
cluding the AUegkany, the Montgomery, vfhifefc
Coyner’s, the Yellow Sulpknr, the Creenhrtv
White Sulphur, the Old and the Ret ■essd
Spriugs, the Salt Sulphur, the Hot nut Varna
Springs. I have also tested the virtaee ef ae
liallston, the Saratoga, and the Lebanon garinae
in the State of New York, and I ean say with eo
-fidence, that I derivod more benefit from In,
waters of the Buffalo Springs, in the eonaMi ef
Mecklenburg, Va., than from any and all ef the
others.
Letter of Dr. P. A. Flournoy, of Charlotte. C.

practitioner;

Colonel Goode:
Dear Sir: In the summer of 1864 I visited tho
Buffalo Springs, as I supposed, a confirmed dys
peptic ; I was weak, emaciated, and despondent,
and in fact my constitution was shattered hr my
disease. I used the water for a ahort lime—l de
not now recollect with precision how lens; la a
few days after I eommeneed the nae ef it I keaea
to improve, and continued to do ao aatil I waa re
stored to perfect health. The core waa complete.
From my own experience with the water, and
what 1 witnessed of its effeots npon others, I re
gard it as equal, if not superior, to any of the
mineral waters of Virginia, in all diseases of the
digestive organs. P. A. Flournoy, M. D.

Peggy Anderson, a colored woman, of Oxford.
North Carolina, reached the Bpring, seme two
months ago in a most distressed and apparently
hopeless condition, resulting from dyspepsia com
plicated with uterine derangement, she waa ex
tremely feeble, emaoiated, and suffering greatly
from nervous excitement. She informed me that
for several years she had been snbjeettenoeeeien
ai attacks of great violence, which confined her
for weeks to her bed. Upon her arrival at the
Springe, she could not eat moat or vegetables ef
any description, and had not been able to do ao
for two years. Her only beverage was eeld watsr,
and a draught of ihat often oeoaaioned her great
pain. She now eats with impunity any ordinary
article of food, including doserts, and en several
occasions has eaten cucumbers and similar ar
ticles, without feeling inoonvenience from it. Ska
has greatly improved in strength, and gained net
not less, I can safely say, than 30 poands in Hash.
