THE pERPLExITIEA or MINISTER, AND TIC DAsH-
FULNEss OF LOVER
One Of the most pcrplexing annoyances OF
clergyman's life, is to be called away In tho
midst Of writing a sermon to attend funeral
Az fitting illustration OF this fact, the follow
ing was given to us ~ having actually occurred
to = popular minister living on Washington st,
no longer ago than last Monday.
Parson -, after the laborn of the Sabbath,
had on the following day seated himself to cont
pose another sermon for the following Sabbath,
solemnity made arrangements for attending =
funeral At . certain hour in tho afternoon.
ScArcely had he resumed his pen, be-
fore another ring was heard and n sorrow
stricken one requests his attendance a.,
funeral No. 2, In the afternoon. Making all
satisfactory arrangements, tho broken threat of
tile sermon was taken up and the busy 'thoushts
OF the preacher were for few moments more al
lowed 10 how smoothly along, when hurried, ,ner-

summons which brought oar goo natured cler-
gyInau third time 10 the door. The moist
eyes, flushed cheeks and gloomy, melancholy
countenance told in language louder than
words, and in grief uncontrollable, OF
| stricken hearts which would rot be
comforted. The kind minister, in order to as
sist tho young man to tell the heart-rending
| news, mildly asked him when and where the fu-
neral was to take place, reminding him that he
had two others 10 attend to in the afternoon.
The young man, comprehending the situation.

Lstter from Our Trsveling Agent ana correspondent

EuFAULA, ALA, August Is, 1875,
Editor Morning Star,
Seventy-five miles below Columbus, Ga, on
the Chattahoochie river, Eufaula, with it's 5000
Inhabitants, enjoys q natural position of great
excellence for health and commerce. The two
railroads which have their termini here, one
from Macon and the other from Montgomery,
are in q comparatively fiourishing condition,
aud bring quite q large business to the city.
The streets of Eufaula are wide and we'll
shaded, and the inhabitants enjoy the luxury
of plenty of good water. They are all san
guine that the next business season, which
with them commences September let, will be q
very good one.
In company with Mr.. D. Rowlett, the husband
of your accomplished agent here, I visited the
Oh urch of the Most Holy Redeemer. 1t is
built Of brick, is eighty feet long by forty
wide, and stands on the most elevated point
in the city. Its interior is very pretty, having
been greatly improved by Father Savage, now
pastor at Montgomery, who was stationed here
| for four years The congregation numbers
| about one hundred and forty souls. There is
now no resident pastor, but it is understood
that as often possible priest will spend q
| few days here Next Sunday, / hear, Rev. W.
J. Hamilton, pastor at Appalschicola, Fla, will
be here to officiate.
| Tomorrow 1 shall leave Eufaula to COM
mence the canvass of the great State of
| Georgia. As it is the State of my nativity,
shall meet many of the friends of my youth,
but none will my heart beat with such pleasure
to greet again as those gallant fellows with
whom campaigned for four long years in the
mountains, hills and valleys of Old Virginia.
On all the historic battlefelds of the Second
War of Independence, Georgia was fully repre-
sented, and ever in the forefront of battle her
sons illustrated the courage and devotion of
the Southern soldier. To meet old comrades
again is pleasure to which the trials of the
past ten years will lend additional Joy.
In leaving Alabama must give expression to
the gratitude I feel for the kind assistance of
the Rev. Clergy and many of the laity in my
endeavors to increase your list of subscribers.
Father Savage was particularly kind, and it
was principally through his instrumentality
that doubled the number of your subscribers
in Montgomery, thus placing the STAR ahead OF
all other Catholic papers by twelve or fifteen
names. Truly yours, GEO. w. NORMAN.
