The Brookhaven leader. [volume] (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1883-1891, 1885-04-30


This body, consisting of ministers and
representatives Of their respective chur-
ches, was in session at the Presbyterian
Church Nf this place last week. The ex-
ercises were opened with a sermon by
Rev. C. X. Dudley of Crystal Springs
from Leviticus | a.
There were present during the sessions
eight ministers and five ruling elders.
Rev. o. Newton, President of the Female
Seminary at Crystal Springs, was elected
Moderator, ard Rev, c, X. Dudley, Tenn
porary Clerk.
Rev. W, y. Bingham presented the re-
port on Ministerial Education, showing
that the Presbytery has under its care
four candidates for the Gospel ministery.
Steps were taken for the licensure of one
of them at an early day if the way be
clear. The main difficulty in this work
is the securing u suiliciency of means
for the support of our candidates.
Rev. DIR. Stratton presented the report
on Home and Foreign Missions, This re-
port shows that we have at present only
two vacant churches within our bounds,
these causes of the church with some in
crease in libcralty.
This Presbytery took steps for taking
part in Observing the Seini-centenmiai
anniversary of the Synod of Mississippi at
its next meeting in Shreveport, La., next
November.
The narratives of religion from the
churches manifest general improvement
in several important particulars. The
officers of the churches have been Uniform
ly faithful and efficient. The attendance
upon the means OF grace was reported as
good i'll nearly all of the churches. The
Sabbath SchOo! interests have been pros
porous wherever sustained. There are six e
teen Sabbath Schools within our bounds,
with lU2 Teachers AMI los scholars. The
cause of temperance is steadily advanc-
Ing, and our members are generally found
sustaining every effort to drive the
Demon Alcohol from our borders.
Our people are making advancement in
the Christian duty of supporting the gos-
pei and extending it throughout the
world.
As rule our members are observers of
the Sabbath, although many are not as
strict as they should be.
Owing to the general neglect of f amily
worship by our members, Rev. DR.. STRAIT
ton was appointed Committee to pre-
pare number of suitable prayers for Use
i'll the family, to report the same at the
next meeting of the Presbytery.
Rev. .. Newton, Minister, and J. II.
Darden, Ruling Elder in Fayctte church,
were appointed our Commissioners to the
General Assembly to convene in Houston,
Texas, the 21st of May.
Union Church in Jefferson county was
selected as the place for the next meeting
of Presbytery,
! Pr. II. r. johnson was present during
one of the morning sessions as visiting
brother.
Our sessions were harmonious, and all
our business was dispatched with care
ard satisfaction.
On Sabbath the Presbyterian and NJ. f.
churches were occupied by the ministers
of Presbytery. At p. NJ. large and in
| teresting Union Sabbath School meeting
was held in the Presbyterian Church, at
which several appropriate and instructive
addresses were delivered by Ministers,
Shaw, Dudley and Moseley. This meet
| ing was gracefully presided over by Rev.
}. Woodbridge OF Wesson.

The Tupelo Journal says "in a
contest between Lowry and gtone,
the Journal would feel very much

were engaged in life and death
struggle, that it was the first fight
she ever saw that she didn't care a
durn which whipped. That Col.
Stone will be a formidable candidate

The True Poncy to Pursue with
the Negro.
To tho Editor of the Brookhaven Leader:
Judging from surrounding cir.

To tho Editor of the Brookhavcn Leader:
Judging from surrounding cir
cumstances and from general infor-
nation received from the leaders
from various parts Of the South and
West, the Democracy has greater
chances Of securing the negro vote
now than ever before, or perhaps
ever will again. But how can this
be done answer, give them rep
resentation on State and county
tickets; they are very easy to
Please; and if this is done, l venture
TO say the work will be done in two
years that you have failed to do in
twenty years hard struggling; that
is, YOU will restore his confidence
and secure his million and a halt
votes, which he would otherwise
cast against you. The negro was
faithful to the Republican party for
twenty years, until their unfathful
ness towards him drove him from
their ranks. The negroes, as a peo-
pie, are beginning to learn that po-
litical parties are made for the poo
pie, and not the people for the par
ties. Political parties are good so
long as they sub>erve the best in
terests of the people and promote
the general welfare of the country,
but whenever they fail to accom-
plish these objects, the people are
under no obligations TO serve them
any longer. The sentiment of the
negro is simply this: Let us learn
in the future to serve the political
parties that serve us well. Let us
look after the best interests of the
people first and then the party"
Democracy, stop and think il you
would make the best of your achiev
ments You can now secure mil
lion and q half of votes in the
United States, or you can throw
them away; which will you do =?
The interests Of the white man and
The negro are alike so far as the
South is concerned it is one common
interest, and there should be one
common effort in building up Of the
South.

ENDORSED BY THE REVENUE DEPARTMENT.

The following extract from correspond
ence explains itself, and is glowing
tribute to the various preparations made
by the Home 'Bitters Co., including the
celebrated Home Sanatiye Cordial;
WAsHINfToE, D. G. Sept. IA, 1888.
GENTLEMEN - In your case they
fully recognize the medicinal classified
tiOn of yonr preparations and the recent
decision of Collector Surgeon, and hold
that all yOnr preparations may be sold us
medicines without the payment of special
taxes.
Your preparations will now in my opin-
ion, gain stronger fDothold than ever
before, as they cap in good faits be sold as
medicines, and will, under the rulings,
crowd out other less valuable prepara-
lions, and will have this advantage the
Commissioner now has confidence in them,
apd / am satisfied he will NOT allow any
petty annoyances concerning them.
You should emphasize in your adver-
tisements that your preparations are
manufactured as medicines, Advertised as
medicines, and sold as medicines and used as
medicines, and highly endorsed by the
medical profession as raiaa6le medicines.
Respectfully, GREEN b. BAUM.

date-say, about July 1Oth-it seems

AS it is, factional contests within

The VIcksburg Horror.

The dreadful fire which occurred
in Ficksburg on the night of the
2lst inst. was fraught with far more
terrible results than at first conceiv-
ed, even by those who witnessed it.
In addition TO the destruction of
about a half million dollars worth
of property IN the heart OF
the business portion Of the City,
over thirty persons were overwhelm-
ed beneath the falling walls while
fighting the fire and trying to save
the contents Of the burning build
ings, and their charred remains
have since been exhumed from the
ruins so disfgured as to be beyond
recognition. The origin of the fire
is a mystery. 1t broke out in the
3rd story of the Famous dry goods
store, and it has been charged that
the Meyer Brothers, its proprietors,
fired it for the large insurance, but
this Is exceedingly doubtful.

of Gov. Lowry are for him in this

They would be ungrGteful men il
they were not for interchangeable

Yes, perfect natural" For ex-
ample, there is Stone, whom Lowry
appointed on the Railroad Commits

stone, whom he appointed to Cir

against him for Governor. They
would be ungrateful men if they
were not for him."
