"a Good Idea"

The Hon. John c. Talbot had good idea
1874 when he introduced his resolution in the
House of Representatives at Augusta. The
people will soon have tolerably good idea of
it.--Baagor Commercial
Why won't the funny man of the Ban
gor Commercial stop long enough to tell
the rest of the story THAT the resolution
of 1874 providing for an investigation OF
the prison management was introduced by
the Hon. John c. Talbot, and the investi-
CATION conducted by him. That after the
fullest investigation, sending for persons
and papers, and sending committee to
the prison, at great expense to the State,
the committee unanimously reported that
''they found the difference in valuation no
more than might reasonably be expect
ed, having regard to the time and manner
in which the appraisals were made and the
amounts and kind of the property APP
praised" The report of the committee
unanimously exonerated Warden Rice,
and all connected with the management
of the Prison, and Mr.. Talbot was frank
and honest enough to say that he was fully
satisfied with the investigation and signed
the report most cheerfully. Ifthe facetious
editor of the Bangor Commercial will put
aside the writing of funny-exceedingly
funny-paragraphs long enough to look
up the records, he will find that we have
stated the facts; and these will greatly
strengthen his good idea of Mr.. Talbot's
resolution. The effort of the opposition
TO make political capital out of the State
Prison seems to be fast peterDg out.

william Lloyd Garrison.

William Lloyd Garrison has passed
away from the scenes of his tolls and tri-
umphs. As his life is calmly scanned al
this late day it is seen to be one of great
grandeur. His great heart was moved al
the sufferings of these held in bondage
He devoted his life to the correction of the
enormous evil which he saw in the nation
and brought about one of the greatest
moral triumphs ever witnessed.
Garrison's early life was one of priya-
ton and poverty. Born in Newburyport
Mass, in 1905 his childhood passed with.
out being much improved by education. Al
nine years of age he was shoemakers' APP
prentice. and at fourteen was placed in a
printing office in his native place. Be.
fore he was seventeen he began to write
for the newspapers, and in 1926 owned and
conducted the Newburyport Free Press.
A little later he was editor of the Nation
al Philanthropist, the original total absti-
nence paper, and not long afterwards
JoiHcu WIN HIcli'' III PuoliShiiS P'Po'
in Vermont devoted to peace, temperance
and anti-slavery. BY 1929 the subject of
slavery had taken a deep hold upon him
and from this time forth all his efforts and
energy were devoted to bring about the
revolution of sentiment which made eman-
cipation possible. He attacked slavery in
lectures delivered in northern cities, re-
vealed with his powerful pen its enormi-
ties, and formed anti-slavery societies for
agtating the land.
Having joined with Benjamin Lundy in
issuing an anti-slavery journal in Balti-
more the bold tone of the sheet aroused
the friends of slavery, and before long
he was in their power. He came out with
an article strongly denouncing certain
slave dealers who had been shipping
slaves from Baltimore to Louisiana; he
was arrested for libel and put in prison,
where he remained several weeks till re-
leased through Arthur Tappan's interior
ence. Mr. Garrison's reflections had salts
isfied him the North was the proper section
for rousing public sentiment and he ac-
cordngly decided to issue a paper from
Boston. Jan. /, 1881 the first number of the
famous "Liberator' was given to the world
and the intention of the publisher was thus

retreat a single inch. And | WILL BE

The whole North and South were
aroused. and then followed in the North.
scenes engendered only BY intense excite
ment. Mob violence was rite, the leading
papers denounced the abolitionists and
they were disowned for time by the re-
ligion and responsibility OF Boston. Mass
achusetts was invoked by the South to
abolish abolition papers and abolition So
cieties. And Garrison. the soul of the
movement, went on unhinchingly to the
end. The legislature of Georgia offered
a reward of $4,000 Tor his conviction. many
letters threatening assassination were re-
by him, and the Boston mob dragged
him through their streets. The war came
at last and when the .Liberator" had re-
corded the ratification of the Constitution
al Amendment prohibiting slavery its mis-
sion, with that of Garrison, was ended, and
it ceased to live, after an existence of
thirty-five years.

The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1879-12-03
For the Central Presbyterian.
The January Collection for
Sustentation.

The Executive Committee Of Home
Missions in its report to the last Assem-
bly,, asked for at least $4,000 from the
churches, to enable it to prosecute the
special work of Su8tentatjoH with vigor
and success during the present ecclesias-
teal year. This estimate the Assembly
sanctioned, and directed the Presbyteries
to institute such MEASURES as would secure
at least their proportional share Of that
amount 1t is very important that this
should be accomplished. The time for
this collection-the first Sabbath in jan
uary-is very near at hand, and every
means should be used to stir up the
churches which contribute regularly to
this cause, to more enlarged contribu-
tons; and to secure, if possible, contrl-
button from every church which has not
hitherto contributed.
| have prepared the following tables
from our last Minutes for this special pur-
pose, that it may be seen that the contrib
uting churches ought to largely increase
their gifts, and that attention may be
drawn to the number of non-contributlng
churches. In our whole Church there
were last year III churches, with mem
bership of 1882, which gave nothing to
this cause, 4. e., one-third Of the churches,
and 0ne-tenth of the membership.
In reference to this matter the Synod
of Virginia stands very much better than
her sister synods; but there is room for
Improvement still. Let the effort be
made in January to secure a collection
from every church; and in order to this
let the chairmen of Home Missions in
each Presbytery, write to those churches
which have ordinarily been delinquent,
and urge them to discharge their duty in
this matter.
In the table below I give a statement
of what has been done and what has not
been done in the Synods Of Virginia and
North Carolina. The first column gives
the number of churches Cay contributing,
and (6) non-contibuting in each Pres
bytery The second column gives the
membership of each class of churches.
The third column gives the amount con
tributed for Sustentation.
The only Presbyteries in our whole
Church which reported a contribution
from every church for this cause last
year, were Winchester and Maryland.
Which Presbyteries will fall into this
line this year?
